I'm really good at shooting.

Chapter 486 This schedule is absolutely dead!

It is even possible that many fans who originally came to watch the game for Sun Hao and Yao Ming also became Zhu Fangyu's... boxing fans after this scene happened on the court.

This time, it's not just Asia (the Asian Championship punches Lebanon), and it's not just the NBA (combined punches beat Bogut), but...

World famous!
Sun Hao felt that Zhu Fangyu must have been a world champion boxer in his previous life!

However, Zhu Fangyu also paid the price for himself with this punch.

Worthington received a technical foul, and he was sentenced to a flagrant foul and was directly expelled.

Of course, when he played, he was warmly cheered by the fans on the sidelines.

At this moment, in their hearts, Zhu Fangyu, who "played" the momentum of the Chinese team, has become a "hero" in their hearts.

Some people may say that fighting can be called a hero?

Of course... depending on the situation.

Taking the initiative to cause trouble is disgusting, but being provoked and responding is completely worthy of this title!

The conflict subsided briefly, and the game continued on the field.

At this time, some fans were worried about whether Zhu Fangyu's departure would affect the Chinese team.

After all, Zhu Fangyu is a very important shooting point from the outside of the team. If he is not there, the offensive space of the Chinese team will be much smaller.

The fans are right to worry, but the following games also proved that their worries are actually unnecessary.

Because the team framework of the Chinese team is Sun Hao and Yao Ming, just like the trunk of a tree.

Others are the green leaves and embellishments on this tree, if there are a few less, it is irrelevant.

Of course, it is impossible to have no influence at all. Sun Hao's personal offensive ratio has increased a lot in the following games.

You must know that before the game, he was helping Zhu Fang wipe the three-pointer. Now that Zhu Fangyu has been expelled, he can only do some by himself.

Some people may also worry about whether Zhu Fangyu's fists will make the Australian team members feel angry, and then they will be vicious and make some malicious fouls against the Chinese team to retaliate.

This worry is also right, but it turns out that their worry is still unnecessary.

It's like, if you were punched by an ordinary person, you would want to hit you back, but if the one who hit you was a gangster with tattoos, you would most likely admit it.

The Australian team played behind...don't be too honest!

Especially Worthington, who was still in shock, apologized for fouling.

This psychological shadow hit much more than Bogut.

After all, strictly speaking, he is still just a student!

An unexpected conflict did not have much impact on the outcome of the game.

Although the Australian team played a good start, Bogut thought they had a chance.

But like the previous Japanese and Slovenian teams, they couldn't guard Sun Hao, Yao Ming, or even Yi Jianlian.

If these strengths cannot be resolved, they can only focus on one thing and lose another on the defensive end.

As for the offensive end, the twin towers of the Chinese team don't even think about scoring inside without an All-Star insider like Gasol.

In the end, the Chinese team beat the Australian team 83 to 53, and the World Championships have not lost a single game so far.

It is worth mentioning that although Sun Hao still clocked in three quarters, he scored 20 points today with 36 shots.

Bogut's fantasy was shattered, and finally received a disastrous defeat.

But the good news is that at least they succeeded... making Sun Hao sweat.

That's an achievement, isn't it?
On the second day after winning the Australian team, the Chinese team played against the second weakest team in this group, only winning against Japan's Senegal team.

This looked like a match without suspense, but the Chinese team still sent a full main lineup except Zhu Fangyu.

Without him, it is because he wants to get the first place in this group.

What, why except Zhu Fangyu?
Because of a malicious foul against the Australian team, Zhu Fangyu was suspended for an additional game by FIBA.

Of course, it won't have any big impact.

After beating Senegal easily and as expected, the Chinese team faced Puerto Rico, the last opponent in this group.

The Puerto Rico team is not weak, led by the Arroyo version 1.0 of "A Mountain in Puerto Rico".

Before this, their record was 2 wins and 2 losses, and they have already secured the qualifying places for the group.

But because they lost to the Slovenian team, if they want to compete for third place, they can only win the Chinese team.

This sounds a bit far-fetched, but it is not impossible.

Because of the last game of this group match, Harris arranged for both Sun Hao and Yao Ming to have a truce.

The reason why Harris did this is also very simple, in order to find a rest time for the two in this one-game-a-day schedule.

In the case that the first place in the group has been determined, the outcome of the last game will not have any impact.

In a rare leisure time, Sun Hao prepared a whole cup of wolfberry tea, and sat on the sidelines in his training clothes to watch the game leisurely.

But don't tell me, even Sun Hao and Yao Ming don't fight.

Sun Yue, Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, Yi Jianlian, Battelle, Wang Zhizhi.

This lineup still looks very competitive.

It is worth mentioning that Sun Yue started in this game.

The first time he entered the national team, he was arranged to start. Harris' trust and love for Sun Yue can be seen.

But the most dazzling player in this match was not Sun Yue, but... Wang Shipeng!

When playing against the Australian team before, he was replaced within 2 minutes of playing, and he didn't play for long in the end. Wang Shipeng was full of reconciliation.

He has never found any chance to prove himself, but he did it in this game.

He showed a very good competitive state from the beginning of the game.

Also under the leadership of him and Yi Jianlian, the Chinese team has been in a stalemate with the Puerto Rico team.

The two sides hit the last moment of the last quarter, and Arroyo's desperate layup helped the Puerto Rico team achieve a lead with 5.3 seconds before the whistle.

The Chinese team is about to suffer their first defeat since the World Championships.

In the last 5.3 seconds, Wang Shipeng caught the ball from the backcourt and rushed to the frontcourt, and used the pick-and-roll from outside the three-point line to make a three-pointer.

Not long after he shot the ball, the red light on the sidelines followed.

"Shh!"

Then, the ball goes in!

78 is better than 77!

"Lore! Lore! Wang Shipeng beat Puerto Rico! The Chinese team won!"

In the broadcast booth, Su Qun had already shouted.

This is besides Sun Hao, the Chinese team has the second person who can complete the lore in the fiba arena!

Members of the Chinese team have rushed onto the field and surrounded Wang Shipeng in the middle, shouting.

Including Yi Jianlian, who scored 30 points and 10 rebounds in this game, and Yao Ming, who was wearing a training suit.

Except for Sun Hao.

At this moment, Sun Hao stood on the side of the bench touching his nose, with a strange expression on his face.

How similar the scene in front of you is to history!
It's just that in history, Wang Shipeng's lore was Slovenia, but now the target of the lore is replaced by the Puerto Rico team.

Really, very interesting!
……

The group stage ended, and the final ranking of each group was announced.

Group A: Argentina, France, Serbia and Montenegro, Germany, Lebanon, Nigeria;
Group B: China, Australia, Slovenia, Puerto Rico, Senegal, Japan;
Group C: Spain, Italy, New Zealand, Venezuela, Angola, Panama;

Group D: Greece, United States, Lithuania, Turkey, Brazil, Qatar;

This ranking can read a lot of interesting information:

Message [-]: Although the Japanese team has been favored by the goddess of luck, but in the end...no one has ever played.

Even the African brothers Senegal won their 20+ points.

After being beaten by the Chinese team, the confidence and morale of the Japanese team players has fallen to a new historical bottom.

Information [-]: The change brought about by the butterfly effect is that because of the growth of Milicic, Serbia and Montenegro still achieved good results under his leadership even though Peja's main players did not come.

The direct result of this is that the German team was squeezed to fourth.

Nowitzki, who was a little depressed when communicating with Sun Hao before, did not perform well in this World Championship.

Information [-]: According to the competition system, the opponent of the Chinese team in the first round will be the German team that has been squeezed to fourth.

It must be a special fate.

Information [-]: The Japanese team failed to emerge from the false group of death, and in the real group of death, the Brazilian team, which finally had the golden generation, was unfortunately eliminated.

Information [-]: Compared with the exit of the Brazilian team, the really surprising last game of the group stage, the US team... overturned.

They lost 95 to 101 to the Greek team, Anthony scored 27 points.

It is said that it was a rollover because the Dream Seven team was given high hopes by American fans, but they lost in the group stage, and they lost to Greece.

But the thing that gets overlooked is that the Greek team was the champion of Euro 2005.

Information [-]: According to the competition system, if both the Chinese team and the US team advance smoothly, they will meet early in the quarter-finals.

……

"It's kind of messed up!"

After reading out the information, Sun Hao couldn't help complaining.

Especially meeting the US team in the quarter-finals, which he didn't think about before.

Because this means that one of the Chinese and American teams will not be able to enter the semi-finals!
For the Chinese team, this time their goal is only to win the championship. If they fail to enter the semi-finals, not only the coaching staff will change, but also the top management of the basketball association may undergo major changes;

For the U.S. team, it is impossible to stop at the top eight in two consecutive World Championships, right?

If that's the case, it will be a joke to hang on to the title of "Dream Team" in the future.

And for Fiba, the two favorite teams to win the championship will meet in advance, and the enthusiasm will end in advance, which may not be a good thing.

But this can't be blamed on anyone!
If you want to blame...you can only blame the US team for losing to Greece.

Although, in the history that Sun Hao knew, the US team did lose to Greece.

But that was in the semi-finals, it was in the group stage, and the mentality of the players is completely different.

Of course, complaining is just complaining.

As I said before, if the US team stops at the semi-finals, it would not be appropriate to call it the dream team.

In other words, the whole world used to challenge the dream team, but now the Chinese team has the opportunity to eliminate the dream team!
That's very exciting!
then……

Another day later.

The curtain of the quarter-finals officially opened.

The first game is Group C winner against Group D fourth, Spain against Turkey.

This should be the most suspenseful matchup in the quarter-finals.

Although Turkey is fourth in the group, they are not bad in the death group, and there is no shortage of NBA players in the team.

Although Okur, who has been firmly established as the main center of the Jazz, failed to participate because of conflicts with the Basketball Association.

But the team is still effective in Turkoglu, who plays for the Magic, and Ilyasova, who plays for the Bucks.

They were able to squeeze out the peak Brazil team in the death group, not by luck.

Because the next game is the match between China and Germany, Sun Hao and the Chinese team members all went to the arena to watch the match ahead of time.

Sun Hao ran down to say hello before the game.

Because he played for Real Madrid back then, this Spanish team has too many acquaintances with him.

Not to mention old opponents such as Gasol, Calderon, and Navarro, but also the former teammate Garbajosa, and...

Rudy Long Time No See Fernandez!And Marc I'm still a big fat baby Gasol!

Fernandez began to represent Spain in the national team two years ago, and now he has become the sixth man of the national team!

This precocious boy who went all over the world to find an affair with Sun Hao, has now grown into a grown man.

When the two met, it was a big hug, and then they had endless words.

During the four years of being together day and night, he and Sun Hao spent longer together than Yi Jianlian.

"When can I hold your son, I will be his godfather!"

Fernandez couldn't help but said.

The last time he met Sun Hao was the day Sun Hao got married.

"Sure, and soon."

Of course Sun Hao would not refuse.

"Just don't spoil him."

After Sun Hao thought about it, he said again, he didn't want his son to be a king of guns.

Fernandez laughed out loud.

"Go to the NBA early."

At the end of the chat, Sun Hao patted Fernandez on the shoulder and said.

"If the Lakers draft me, I'll go."

Fernandez said with a smile.

This is obviously a joke, but it can be heard that he wants to play with Sun Hao.

After all, the two have been together for a long time, but playing together is just a few months in the youth team, which is really pitiful.

Then there is Gasol.

Gasol's weight and size have really grown proportionally with his age.

It seems that Gasol brought him around, and it didn't stop the guy from getting fat.

On the contrary, he stayed with him for a long time, and he felt more resentment towards his brother.

When Gasol was not paying attention, he seemed to have finally found someone to confide in, and he was full of complaints.

"You don't know how disgusting Paul is. He only allows me to eat one-third of his meat when he eats."

Sun Hao nodded and glanced at Gasol Jr.

Gasol should... love meat very much.

"Also, this guy kept not letting me go out in Boston, saying that it was not safe outside. As a result, the most I did in the past few years was to play with him."

Sun Hao couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this.

It is estimated that Gasol has been abused miserably in recent years.

And the attributes of Gasol's favorite brother, the madman, have not changed.

Little Gasol complained a lot, and Sun Hao laughed when he heard it.

After listening, he also said what Fernandez said before, let the latter come to the NBA earlier.

Now it is estimated that the NBA will also prevent this guy from continuing to gain weight.

"I guess I don't have the ability to play in the NBA."

When Gasol heard this, he reached out and patted the flesh on his stomach.

"Snapped!"

The sound was very crisp.

It seems that he is quite "self-aware".

"How is it possible, you will become an All-Star center, better than your brother."

Sun Hao encouraged him.

"Really? Paul... forget it, you must be trying to comfort me."

Little Gasol had hope in his eyes, but soon disappeared.

Although he also wanted to surpass his brother, he was almost scared of being tortured by his brother these few years.

"I am optimistic about you, at least go to the NBA to challenge Paul, don't you want to beat him up? Even one game is fine."

After listening to the expression of "You are so reasonable, I don't know how to refute", Gasol nodded seriously.

"Ah!"

At this moment, Gasol sneezed violently not far away.

Why is this arena a bit chilly?
