Basketball starts with breathing

Chapter 264 Advance to the quarterfinals 【Subscribe! 】

The opponents of the Chinese men's basketball team in Group F are: New Zealand, Germany, Argentina, Russia and the United States.

Only in the top four of the six teams can enter the top eight of the world championships.

Each team will meet three new teams in the group group, and the group stage results between teams in the same group will still be valid.

In other words, the Chinese team only needs to play New Zealand, Russia and Argentina.

The Chinese men's basketball team has already scored six points in the first round.

The teams that advance in the first round have won at least one game, that is, they have four points. If they want to advance steadily in the second round, it is best to win more than one game.

But no one knows that the goal of the Chinese men's basketball team is to win!

On September 9, the Chinese men's basketball team played against the Argentina team. Before this game, Group F had already played a game at the RCA Dome Stadium. New Zealand lost 3 to 64 to the German team.

The other match in Group F is a match between the United States and Russia at the Conseco Arena at the same time.

The U.S. team seems to be on a roll with the Chinese team.

They won the game against the Russian team fiercely, 106 to 82, and beat Russia by 24 points.

The Chinese team only won the Argentina team by 9 points, 96 to 87, and the game was very dangerous. It was almost overturned by the Argentina team, which scared Lu Yu into a cold sweat.

Ginobili is still too fierce.

In the last quarter, they scored 15 points, almost catching up with the score. Unfortunately, at the last moment, Lu Yu's three-pointer completely extinguished their hope of counterattack.

Lu Yu scored a large double-double with 32 points and 11 assists in this game.

It also let Ginobili, who has not yet entered the NBA, know how powerful the NBA superstar is in scoring.

Yao Ming had 11 points, 19 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 assists.

The Argentine team seems to have found a way to restrain Yao Ming. They keep going forward, making Yao Ming very uncomfortable. It is a bit like the situation when Lu Yu's Jazz team Boozer and Okur defended Yao Ming.

Fortunately, Boozer will be with the Bulls next season.

After a period of adaptation, the team's offensive and defensive strength in the interior can rise to a higher level. You must know that Boozer is the kind of player who has played in college for four years and can seamlessly connect to the NBA.

Ginobili scored 27 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds and 1 steal in this game. Although he lost the game, he was obviously not very convinced. He felt that Argentina had a chance to win the Chinese men's basketball team, but today Slightly less fortunate at night.

Many basketball experts also stood up at this time and said: "The Chinese men's basketball team is not that strong. The strength of the Argentina team is similar to that of the Russian team. The US team defeated the Russian team by 24 points, but the Chinese men's basketball team only defeated the Argentina team by 9 points. It was an accident that the Chinese men's basketball team won the U.S. last round."

Basketball is round.

Accidents are normal.

Especially a game is difficult to prove, and NBA championship teams cannot guarantee that they will not lose a game after a season.

But this justification seemed so pale.

Because that's the U.S. men's basketball team, the Dream Team!

You must know that the Dream Team has never lost before. Playing in other countries is as easy as a professional player playing a high school student, but now it has lost, and it has lost to an Asian team!

Needless to say, they cannot accept losing to a European team, let alone a yellow-skinned Chinese team.

Anyway, there are a lot of American fans who are not convinced.

But the fans in Chicago are very happy. After all, it is their leading star in Chicago who won the game. As a result, many fans remembered, oh, yes, there are NBA super giants in the Chinese team.

That's right, Lu Yu's strength has just passed his rookie season in the NBA, and he has already been called super giant by fans.

After all, whether it's from the MVP ranking or the team's results in the final playoffs, Lu Yu has surpassed ordinary stars by too many.

On September 9, the game between the Chinese team and the Russian team once again hit the faces of many basketball experts.

At the end of the game, the Chinese team won the Russian team by 95 points, 70-25, no more or less, and only one more point than the US team.

There is no comparison between American basketball experts, China and Argentina, the United States and Russia, how can it be concluded that the Chinese team is not as strong as the United States, and that winning that game is a result of luck?

Typical IQ problems, no wonder they are so bad at math.

At this time, many people remembered that Argentina beat Russia by nearly 20 points in the first round. In their game, Argentina defeated Russia 100-81.

Just because the Russian team has an active NBA player does not mean that the Russian team is good.

The strength of the team is ultimately determined by the score.

All the black fans who are not convinced that the Chinese team won the US team completely shut up.

和俄罗斯队的这场比赛，陆余出战30分钟，得到23分9次助攻8个篮板6次抢断，5次抢断的数据也是今年世锦赛个人单场抢断的最高数据。

Play another 10 minutes, maybe a quadruple double can be made.

姚明13分15个篮板，王治郅16分9个篮板，内线双塔打的AK47没有一点脾气。

What surprised Lu Yu the most was that Liu Yudong, the God of War who had been tepid before, played well in this game, leading the bench lineup, and directly widened the point difference to nearly [-] points in the second quarter.

And Liu Yudong also scored 20 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists in the whole game.

God of War is just old, not dead.

Even those NBA stars in the American men's basketball team were defeated by the Chinese team, not to mention the Russian team with only the immature Kirilenko. Compared with other European and American teams, the Russian team is not only a small number of NBA players, but other The quality of the players is also worrying.

You must know that in other European teams, there are many players who are not incapable of playing in the NBA, but are just unwilling to play.

There is a high probability that the Russian team will be eliminated in this round.

On this day, the 13th and 16th place competitions were also held, and Lu Yu didn't pay attention to them. It seemed to be Canada, Lebanon, Algeria and Venezuela.

Think of Lebanon, who was chased by the Chinese men's basketball team and spanked last year.

Now we can only fight for 13-16.

Who would have thought that in Lu Yu's previous life, he could be beaten by Lebanon to the point where he couldn't even make it to the semi-finals of the Asian Cup.

The fans who lost in the end could only comfort themselves: "Okay, much better than the men's football team."

Anyway, the Chinese men's basketball team that owns Lu Yu now has the strength to wrestle with European and American teams, and even this broken dream team.

On September 9, the match between the Chinese men's basketball team and New Zealand was held at the Conseco Arena.

Conseco Arena is the home arena of the Pacers. As soon as Lu Yu stepped into the arena, he heard tsunami-like boos throughout the arena. He didn't know how much he thought Lu Yu and the Pacers fans had the same hatred.

Lu Yu was also thinking, the Pacers don't seem to be eliminated by me, right?
He didn't know until he called Snoopy after the game, because Lu Yu led the Chinese team to defeat the American team before, and now American fans have a very polarized attitude towards Lu Yu.

Fans who advocate the supremacy of strength think that Lu Yu is amazing, and I like Lu Yu as much as Lu Yu is.

Another kind of fans who are a little racist or self-anaesthetized feel that how can Lu Yu win the US team, how can the yellow-skinned monkeys of the Chinese men's basketball team win the US men's basketball team, if not for the NCAA and the NBA to train Lu Yu, How can they win!
Some fans even shouted the slogan of naturalizing Lu Yu.

Anyway, in this magical pure land of the United States, there are all kinds of demons and ghosts, and there is an endless stream of remarks.

And New Zealand also lost to the Chinese team.

Not much to lose, but also lost 112 points, 95 to [-].

Lu Yu felt hot today. He scored 47 points and 13 assists. It was crazy. The New Zealand team's typical Australian style of play, fast offensive and defensive counterattacks, and physical confrontation. Lu Yu is cool anyway. A rival team to play the game.

The game between the Chinese team and New Zealand is at 05:30 in the morning.

After the game, the Chinese team is determined to advance to the quarter-finals with a total score of 12 points!

After the game, the Chinese team players and coaches did not leave, but stayed to watch another game, Argentina and the United States.

These two teams have already been confirmed to enter the quarterfinals, and they are likely to be the opponents of the Chinese team in the next round.

Zhu Fangyu pouted at the cheered American players and cursed secretly, "American fans are really fucking double standards!"

Lu Yu smiled.

Yao Ming suddenly asked, "Lu Yu, who do you think will win?"

Before Lu Yu could speak, Zhu Fangyu learned to force the answer: "Of course it's the US team, so why not ask?"

Wang Zhizhi also nodded. He also believed that the US team would win the game.

The U.S. team has lost one game to the Chinese team so far, and every time it wins against other teams, it wins by [-] to [-] points.

Yao Ming continued to look at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu shook his head: "Not necessarily, we can win the US team, maybe Argentina can also win, we played against Argentina, they were not as weak as they thought, we also played against the United States, they did not imagine so strong."

Although Zhu Fangyu knew that Lu Yu was telling the truth, he was still a little unconvinced that Argentina could win against the U.S. team: "I don't think Argentina can win, nor can the U.S. lose."

Lu Yu smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, let's make a bet."

"What are you gambling?"

"If Argentina wins, you will practice [-] three-pointers today. On the other hand, if the U.S. team wins, I will practice [-] additional three-pointers today."

"make a deal."

Zhu Fangyu reached an agreement with Lu Yu confidently.

In fact, Lu Yu didn't know what to do. Although he remembered that the US team lost to Argentina in the group stage of his previous life, who knows if there will be any changes this time.

At the beginning of the game, the two sides started a hand-to-hand fight, and the score rose slowly.

Team USA quickly took the lead and kept it going into the fourth quarter.

In the last 2 minutes of the fourth quarter, the U.S. team led Argentina by 79 points 75 to 4. At this time, Zhu Fangyu laughed: "I think the U.S. team can win."

Lu Yu shook his head: "The game isn't over yet. You forgot the last game we played against Argentina, and they were almost overturned by them at the last moment?"

Zhu Fangyu was stunned for a moment: "It's impossible to turn around every time, right?"

He is also a little worried. After all, the current point difference is not big, which can show that Argentina does have this strength, but the game is only in the last 2 minutes, and the ball is still in the hands of the US team. The US team is gaining momentum. Generally, this situation is unless There is an offensive blackout, otherwise it will be difficult to lose the game.

Suddenly, the basketball in Reggie Miller's hand was broken by Ginobili like lightning. Then Ginobili picked up the basketball and ran all the way. When he got to the three-point line, he did not rush to the basket, but Brake directly to stop, raise your hand and throw.

Swish!
Three point hit!

Zhu Fangyu was stunned: "This is all right?"

After this steal, the U.S. team’s offense was completely cut off, and the Argentine team launched a counterattack. Zhu Fangyu stomped his feet in a hurry. Only hit one penalty.

In the last 14 seconds of the game, the Argentine team led the US team by only three points 83 to 80.

As long as Team USA guards the ball and then makes a [-]-pointer, there is a chance to send the game into overtime.

Ginobili dribbled the ball slowly and leisurely on the outside. Reggie Miller leaned down and stared at him. Suddenly, Ginobili dribbled the ball behind Miller's left hand, and Miller quickly retreated.

At this time, Miller discovered that Ginobili took a sharp step back, withdrew to the three-point line, and raised his hand to shoot.

He jumped up quickly, and then...

The whistle blows, the ball goes in, 3+1
With Manu Ginobili added a penalty hit, completely declared to kill the game.

87 is better than 80
After the Chinese men's basketball team defeated the American Dream Team, the Argentina team won the United States again.

The Dream Team's undefeated golden body that dominated the basketball world was broken one after another, so that the coffin board of the American fans could not be covered. When the American fans came off the court, they faced boos from the audience.

It sucks!
On the doorstep of the house, defeated twice.

The first time was the Chinese men's basketball team in Asia. There is still a reason for losing to the Chinese men's basketball team. After all, there are 4 NBA players in the Chinese men's basketball team. Among them, Lu Yu is still the star of the Bulls, and there is an NCAA player. There is a high probability of being selected by an NBA team.

But losing to Argentina made them a little unacceptable.

This Argentine team has no NBA-level players.

The only Manu Ginobili, although he was drafted by the Spurs early, did not play a single NBA game.

Are NBA rules suitable for FIBA?

Can NBA players still dominate the basketball world?
These questions continue to stimulate American fans and the officials of the NBA league. Lu Yu knows that the loss of the American team may aggravate the changes in NBA rules next year.

With Argentina's victory over the US team, the American fans' previous firepower against Lu Yu was also diverted a lot.

Only then did people realize that maybe it wasn't that Lu Yu was too strong. Is there a possibility that the American team was too weak?
At the same time, the quarter-final roster has also been released.

The games are all on September 9th.

They are: Argentina against Brazil, Germany against Spain, Puerto Rico against China, and the United States against Yugoslavia.

A game, won the semi-finals, lost to compete for 5-8.

Lu Yu, who was supervising Zhu Fangyu's 1000 three-pointers at the arena, didn't know that the Chinese men's basketball team's entry into the quarter-finals of the World Championship at this time has made domestic fans completely boiled.

　Thank you Xue Xian for the reward!It's late, sorry~
