Chapter 170 After shouting the tomato, Moko broke out!

Because Xu Lang felt that it was the second half, and there was a high probability that Duncan would not play.

After all, this is just a preseason game. There is really no need for Duncan to waste too much energy in such an unimportant game.

What Xu Lang didn't expect was that in the third quarter, for some unknown reason, Duncan continued to stay on the court.

It's just that in the first half of the game, Ginobili and Tony Parker, who had been kept by Duncan's side, took a rest in the third quarter.

And after seeing Duncan play again, Moko was comforted by Xu Lang during the halftime break, and his mentality was lifted and his mentality collapsed.

"Old Ke, what a great opportunity! You'll be like this, this, that, and this for a while, just leave the rest to me."

After some ear-to-face instruction, although Xu Lang was a little surprised that Tim Duncan played again in the third quarter.

However, since they promised Moko to dunk a basket, naturally they still have to try their best to do it!

After all, it was Mo Ke who was going to dunk, not Xu Lang!

In the third quarter of the game, the offensive ball was first on the Chinese team's side.

Xu Lang received Moko's pass, dribbled the ball steadily for half the court, and then directed his teammates to complete the positioning.

Leave as much offensive space as possible in the middle.

Then, Xu Lang commanded Moko and brought Tim Duncan up to help him complete the pick-and-roll.

With the help of Moko's pick and roll, Xu Lang quickly entered the three-point line.

After entering the three-point line, Xu Lang did not make an emergency stop jump shot directly at the free throw line like in the first half of the game, but continued to accelerate and move into the three-second zone.

Obviously, Xu Lang ran for Duncan this pick-and-roll.

Xu Lang's advance forced Tim Duncan to retreat again to adjust his defensive pace.

And control the defensive distance between himself and Xu Lang at any time, so as to prevent Xu Lang from breaking through and laying up with a rhythm change and acceleration.

It has to be said that Duncan deserves to be the top defensive inside player in the active league.

Facing Xu Lang's constant rhythm changes, skillful ball control fakes and breakthrough rhythm changes.

Duncan has always kept a step and a half away from Xu Lang, and is in a perfect defensive position where he can reach out to interfere with Xu Lang's shooting at any time, but he will not be easily broken by Xu Lang because he is too close to Xu Lang.

This caused Xu Lang to dribble into the penalty area, but still did not find a good layup opportunity.

However, Xu Lang himself used Moko's pick-and-roll to carry out a breakthrough attack this time, not to complete an attack against Tim Duncan.

Xu Lang's attack this time was just trying to attract Duncan's defensive attention completely, so as to provide Moko with a chance to dunk.

So after Xu Lang entered the penalty area, he did not rush to attack, but turned to the left again, and took Tim Duncan directly to the bottom line outside the penalty area on the left.

At this time, Moko, who had just completed the pick-and-roll, had also moved to a position one step inside the free throw line.

If Moko had been replaced by Yao Ming at this time, Xu Lang would have passed the ball with one hit. After all, Yao Ming's weight fits his height, and after reaching this position.

No matter who is in the way ahead, they will rush through Yao Ming like sweeping garbage, and complete a dunk.

But if it was Moko, Xu Lang felt that he needed to help him create better offensive opportunities.

So Xu Lang once again took Duncan to move one step to the left corner, taking Duncan outside the penalty area.

Xu Lang first rushed forward alone, directly plunged into Duncan's arms, and handed over the basketball in his hand to Moko, who had already moved half a step outside the penalty area.

At the same time, after Xu Lang handed over the basketball in his hand, he didn't stop his actions, but immediately turned halfway around and stuck Duncan back in the penalty area to prevent some accidents from appearing!
Seeing that Duncan was completely stuck by Xu Lang, Moko was a little delighted. After receiving Xu Lang's pass, he took off directly and planned to complete a two-handed dunk.

It's just that Moko seems to have forgotten that although Duncan was lured away, the Spurs' insiders are not without other players.

Francisco Elson, who re-entered the game in the second half of the game, suddenly appeared in front of Moko, leaped high, and slapped the basketball that Moko held high with both hands.

"Snapped!"

"Boom!"

"drop!"

The sound of the basketball being slapped, the sound of Moko falling to the ground, and the whistle of the bottom line referee sounded at the same time.

Looking at Mo Ke who fell to the ground, Xu Lang felt infinite sympathy in his heart.

Moko stood up, his face was full of anger, and his eyes looked at Francesco Elson who destroyed his dunk and Duncan clapped his hands in celebration.

"damn it!"

Obviously, Francisco Elson, who had just completed his defense, also felt Moko's anger.

But as a veteran who has played in the NBA for many years, Francisco Elson, it is naturally impossible to persuade a Moko who is obviously not as fit as himself!
Of course, if Francisco Elson had really understood that game in 2005, that Moko's solo show, he might not think so in his heart.

"What's the situation? Do Chinese players like to eat tomatoes?"

Just when Francisco Elson was sternly waiting, ready to meet Moko's trash talk or some excessive actions.

Instead, he just heard a classic catchphrase of Yao Ming in the NBA from Moko.

This made Francisco Elson a little confused.

"Could it be that the Chinese players are so peaceful, and when they get fouled directly, they just say a tomato and it's over?!"

Although a little confused, Francisco Elson is still very satisfied with being able to resolve this matter without conflicting with Moko, and at the same time, his inner tension is slightly relaxed!
After all, as a veteran of the NBA, although Francisco Elson is not afraid of conflict, he is not afraid of talking trash with any player.

However, this is only a preseason game after all, and it is still a preseason game played in China. Francisco Elson doesn't want to cause any extra problems and have any particularly big conflicts with Chinese players.

It's just that Francisco Elson didn't expect it.

Just when he felt that Moko had a good temper just now and was not offended by his defense that time.

However, Moko became an angry warrior in the next few minutes. After completing the pick-and-roll with Xu Lang again and again, he began to attack the Spurs' basket regardless of his care.

I have to say that if it was Moko who attacked the basket alone, maybe no player on the Spurs would take Moko seriously!
However, when Moko and Xu Lang attacked the basket together, it was Duncan who had to take it seriously when facing Moko, who was a little brainless!

What's more, I don't know if Mo Ke and Xu Lang did it on purpose, or a coincidence, the game is slowly going on.

The original matchup between Tim Duncan and Moko gradually changed to Francisco Elson's matchup against Moko!
Although Francisco Elson's overall strength is one level higher than Moko's, compared with Tim Duncan's opponent who is at least 3~4 levels higher than Moko, Moko obviously wants to fight It's more comfortable.

Then Moko, with some kind of anger, played a little crookedly in the third quarter, playing a reckless and somewhat fearless game state.

This made Moko, who had been playing submissively in the first half of the game, be beaten by Duncan.

In the long-term confrontation with Francisco Elson in this quarter, he actually showed the statistics and court effect that did not fall behind.

Even though Moko got bigger and smoother and the rhythm of the game got better and better, Moko had already started to suppress Francisco Elson to fight again!

Then just after halfway through the third quarter, Moko's personal data in the half-quarter game has increased to eight points, three rebounds, one block, and one steal.

"Heh, Xiao Mo's performance in this section is pretty good."

"Look, I just said that Moko's current personal strength is fully adaptable to NBA games."

"And Moko's personal game style is more suitable for becoming a jigsaw player for an NBA team."

"Rebounding, defense, mid-range shooting, or the ability to punch the frame that Francisco Elson has shown in this half of the game!
I think Moko's attractiveness to NBA teams will be further improved! "

Because Moko was abused by Duncan in the first half of the game, Gong Luming never found a chance to continue to praise Moko even though he was very optimistic about Moko.

But in the third quarter, as Moko played better and better, Gong Luming, who was about to be suffocated in the first half of the game, directly started the commentary mode with a few sentences and Moko's team commentary.

In fact, in the past half a quarter, Mo Ke's performance is indeed worthy of Gong Luming's praise.

After Tim Duncan played for two or three minutes in the third quarter, the third quarter has completely become Moko's personal performance.

He hit the mid-range jumper after the pick-and-roll with Xu Lang, and made various impacts on the basket after the pick-and-roll with Xu Lang.

After the pick-and-roll with Xu Lang, he was fed an alley-oop dunk!

It directly made Moko not only throw off the decadence of the first half of the game in the first half of the third quarter.

He went one step further to use Francisco Elson as a stepping stone to continue to show his talent and strength to the NBA scouts who came to watch the game today.

Obviously, for this game, not only the media and the players of the two teams know that it is a game for the Chinese team to show the talents of young players.

The scouts of the NBA team also know that this game is a game for the Chinese national team, the world championship team, to further reap the fruits of victory after winning the championship.

Just like the Spanish team that just finished a game with the Heat recently.

Immediately after that game, many players from the Spanish team received invitations for trial training from NBA teams.

And Rudy Fernandez has directly won the signing commitments of many teams.

However, because Fernandez was a little high-spirited and still wanted to enter the NBA through the draft, he didn't agree to the olive branches thrown by these teams!
Therefore, everyone believes that after this game, there will also be many players in the Chinese team who will accept the NBA team's trial training invitation.

In particular, under the strong request of Jonas, after the basketball management center publicly issued a statement actively supporting domestic players to play in higher-level leagues, the last concern of the NBA team disappeared!
Of course, sending invitations for trial training does not mean that these players will definitely be signed, but this is always a chance for young players from the Chinese team who want to enter the NBA to have a try!
Looking at it now, at least Moko's performance in the past half quarter is enough for some NBA teams to throw some olive branches to Moko.

Besides Moko, another player who performed well in the third quarter was Wang Zhizhi.

I don't know if it's because of this game, but since Wang Zhizhi played in the second quarter, he has shown a very high offensive desire and game state.

Even Wang Zhizhi's performance in the second and third quarters has somewhat surpassed what Xu Lang thinks a b-level power forward player can show!
Skillful footsteps inside, stable mid-to-long-range projection.

He also has a very good ability to attack the ball from the outside. Wang Zhizhi behaved like an All-Star power forward.

Although part of the reason is that Wang Zhizhi's offensive efficiency and game performance in this game will be so good under the premise of completely avoiding Duncan.

But as a championship-level team, the personal strength of other Spurs players is also not weak.

And Wang Zhizhi was able to completely suppress the entire Spurs when facing the Spurs. The performance and statistics of all other players except Tim Duncan.

It is enough to prove that Wang Zhizhi absolutely has the strength to continue to survive in the NBA.

If the second and third quarters belonged to Wang Zhizhi and Mo Ke respectively, then the fourth quarter of this game belonged to Sun Yue!
At the end of the three quarters, after the Spurs completely replaced their main lineup, the Chinese team also replaced all their main players.

Except for Mo Ke, Wang Zhizhi and Sun Yue who need to show their strength and potential in this game, the Chinese team still has other players on the field, but they basically didn't get much chance to play in the World Championships substitute player.

For example, Liu Wei, who averaged less than 7 minutes per game in the entire World Championships, and Chen Jianghua, the youngest player of the Chinese team in the 2006 World Men's Basketball Championship.

It is precisely because of the appearance of Liu Wei and Chen Jianghua that Sun Yue showed his unparalleled defensive ability in the last quarter of the game.

Obviously, both Liu Wei and Chen Jianghua are slightly weaker on the defensive end.

Especially when facing a group of players with explosive physical fitness from the Spurs, he became a colander!

This led to the fourth quarter, when Liu Wei and Chen Jianghua became loopholes in the Chinese team's perimeter defense again and again.

At the same time, Sun Yue has become a huge patch for the entire Chinese team's perimeter defense time and time again.

Sun Yue helped Liu Wei and Chen Jianghua complete the defense on the defensive end, and then scored 2 blocks and [-] steals in a single quarter in the fourth quarter.

It directly made the eyes of all the scouts who saw that Sun Yue was only 19 years old start to shine!

In addition to Sun Yue's performance, in addition to these statistics, under Sun Yue's supplementary defense, the entire Chinese team's perimeter defense has not become riddled with holes because of Liu Wei and Chen Jianghua's defensive loopholes.

On the contrary, it also made Popovich feel that the Chinese team's perimeter defense has a little bit of stability.

And Sun Yue abruptly completed a steal from Tony Parker in a single quarter in the fourth quarter.

And it's incredible, the player who judged Ginobili's strange passing route on an impromptu basis and completed the second steal.

It also naturally left an impression in the heart of Mr. Popovich!
In the end, under the excellent talent and strength of these young players of the Chinese team.

At the end of the game, the Chinese team still took an eight-point lead and won the much-anticipated Chinese men's basketball team against the NBA Western Conference Finals team and won the championship against the Spurs, the favorite team.

It's just that for the Spurs and Popovich, although they lost the game, they didn't really care much.

What Popovich is more concerned about now, or what is a little drooling, is the group of Chinese players who have shown good strength and potential in today's game.

Of course, Popovich is also very clear that Wang Zhizhi, who scored 28 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists, [-] blocks, and [-] steals in a single game in this game, is obviously not something he can grab.

At least for Wang Zhizhi, who played like this in this game, there is a high probability that it will be difficult for the Spurs to sign him with a veteran's basic salary.

And it's not just Wang Zhizhi, Moko scored 18 points, nine rebounds, two blocks, and two steals in the entire game.

Sun Yue, who scored 13 points, five rebounds, five assists, two blocks, and three steals in a single game, is not a player that the Spurs don't have enough salary space to covet.

What Popovich is eyeing now is not the most outstanding players of the Chinese team in this game.

It was Zhu Fangyu who was outside the three-point line in this game and made three of seven shots. On the defensive end, he interfered with Bruce Bowen's offense and shooting again and again.

Compared with the other three brilliant players of the Chinese team, Zhu Fangyu's performance in this game was much lower-key.
