Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 858 The third knockout round!
Wuhan Sports Center.

A game is going on, the Chinese team is in the last game of the second round, and the opponent is the Jordan team.

The game has entered the last few minutes. At this time, the Chinese team is still leading the Jordan team by 13 points. Qin Hao, Sun Yue, Zhu Fangyu and other main players are all on the court.

"Shh!"

With a soft bang, the Jordan team scored and the point difference narrowed.

But when he turned around, Qin Hao made a breakthrough, tearing apart the Jordan team's defense, attracting the defense and then passing the ball out to Zhu Fangyu. Zhu Fangyu made a steady three-pointer and returned the favor.The two sides came and went, and the point difference was widened again, and it was expanded by another point.

In the last few minutes of the game, the Jordan team wanted to narrow the score and launch a final counterattack. As long as the point difference can be reduced to single digits, there will be more games.

It's a pity that whenever the point difference is close to single digits, the Chinese team can always score, and as long as the Chinese team keeps scoring, it will be difficult for the Jordan team to narrow the score.

When the game time is getting shorter and shorter, the suspense of the game is getting smaller and smaller.

"This game is stable." Li Nan exhaled.

"Well." Deng Bin also relaxed, smiled, and said: "The Jordan team is still very strong. They almost caught up with the score in the second quarter. Fortunately, Coach Deng Huade replaced the main lineup in time. Keep the lead."

The Chinese team still had the upper hand in this game, but in the second quarter, during the substitute rotation time, the Chinese team suddenly lost their sense of touch and hit the iron again and again, almost being overtaken by the opponent.

Fortunately, the main players were replaced in time to stabilize the situation.

By the end of the third quarter, the suspense of the game is actually not much.

A few moments later, the match ended. The Chinese team defeated the Jordan team 87:73. The second round of the round-robin match still won all three games. They qualified first in Group F and entered the quarterfinals.

In this game, Qin Hao scored 24 points, 6 rebounds, and 9 assists, Sun Yue scored 16 points, Zhu Fangyu felt bad today, and only made 7 of 2 three-pointers, scoring 8 points, Wang Zhizhi 12 points, and Zhou Peng 10 points.
At the same time, the second round of the Asian Championships is also over.

According to the Asian Championship system, the top four teams in the second round of the group qualify, and the top four in Group F are China, Jordan, the Philippines, and Japan.The top four in Group E are Iran, South Korea, Chinese Taipei, and Lebanon.

These eight teams are the quarterfinals of this Asian Championship.

The next round is the knockout round, where the teams from Group E and Group F are cross-eliminated, the first group in Group E vs the fourth group in Group F (E1vsF4).By analogy, E2vsF3, E3vsF2, E4vsF1, eight into four, four into two, the last two teams decide the championship and get tickets for the London Olympics.

hotel.

In the room, Qin Hao sat opposite Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian.

Before the group stage and the round robin, Yao Ming didn't come, but now that he has entered the quarterfinals, Yao Ming left behind his work and rushed over, and he brought Yi Jianlian with him.

"Brother Lian, how is your injury?" Qin Hao and Yi Jianlian have known each other since the last life, and they are friends.

The two had also met in the NBA, but because Yi Jianlian was either injured or didn't have much playing time, the two didn't have much contact in the game.

Of course, it is not strange.

"Fortunately, he should be able to recover before the start of the new season." Yi Jianlian said with a smile, looking at Qin Hao, he was in a very complicated mood. Compared with Yao Ming and Qin Hao, his road to the NBA was not smooth.

"That's good." Qin Hao said a few words of comfort with a smile.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Yao Ming changed the subject with a smile, moved away from the topic of injuries, and said to Qin Hao: "The knockout match is coming soon, and there will be more uncertain factors in a match, so you can't just keep playing. "

Before the group stage, Qin Hao played in the round robin.

This is no secret. Yao Ming even knew that Qin Hao had negotiated with the coaching staff in order to use these few games to hone the players.

But it will be the knockout round soon, and the situation is different from before.

"I understand." Qin Hao knew Yao Ming's worries, and said with a smile, "Brother Ming, don't worry, the training in these few games is still effective."

"Yeah." Yao Ming nodded, "You are better than me when it comes to leading the team."

The changes in this men's basketball team are obvious to all. Regardless of strength or anything, but only in terms of game attitude, this year's men's basketball team is definitely commendable.

Naturally, Qin Hao's role is indispensable.

A day later, the Chinese team ushered in the first match of the knockout round - the opponent was the Lebanese team, which was fourth in Group E.

Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian both appeared on the scene and sat behind the Chinese team's rest area. Their presence excited the fans and inspired the Chinese team players.

"I didn't expect Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian to come."

"Yeah, I thought they wouldn't come. It seems that they still care about the national team. It's a pity that they didn't participate in the Asian Championships this time."

"Don't worry, as long as you win this Asian Championship, Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian will definitely not miss the London Olympics next year."

"right"

Amidst the people's discussions, the game also started.

At the beginning, Qin Hao started to score points, giving his opponent a bad start first, and Lebanon's defense was also very firm, double-teaming Qin Hao from the beginning.

Fortunately, the teammates are in good condition today. Qin Hao was double-teamed and attracted the defense, while others seized the opportunity to score. After one quarter of the game, the Chinese team firmly gained the upper hand.

"It seems that I was really worried." Yao Ming said with a smile.

"You're just worrying." Yi Jianlian said, "Even if the others didn't play well, isn't Qin Hao still there? Do you really think the Lebanese team can restrain him?"

"Haha." Yao Ming laughed.

After one quarter of the game, the Chinese team led by 8 points.

When entering the second quarter, the Chinese team continued to lead and widened the point difference. At the end of the first half, the Chinese team had expanded its lead to more than ten points.

In the third quarter, the Lebanese team played a wave of shock waves, but was soon forced back by the Chinese team. The rhythm of the game was always in the hands of the Chinese team.

Seeing this situation, Yao Ming was completely relieved: "There is no problem in today's game."

"That's for sure." Yi Jianlian also said with a relaxed smile: "This is only the quarter-finals, so it won't cause us much trouble."

A game is over quickly.

Not surprisingly, the Chinese team defeated the Lebanese team 88:74.

Qin Hao scored 26 points, plus 5 rebounds and 10 assists. His teammates also scored their own points. It was another easy victory.

However, Qin Hao knew that this was only the quarter-finals, and the semi-finals and finals would be the real test, and the opponents would be stronger one by one.

Fortunately, at least judging from the current situation, the overall performance of the team is good, even facing opponents in the semifinals and finals, they still have an advantage.
