The invincible kryptonite of basketball

His eyes were red.

Back then Tang Tian promised him to have the No. 13 jersey appear on the podium, and now he has done it.

Regardless of whether they can beat the US team in the end, everyone, including him, is already satisfied.

He reached out and hugged the players of the Chinese team one by one, and finally hugged Tang Tianhe for a long time.

"Thank you."

After parting, Yao Ming said from the bottom of his heart.

His wish has come true.

"There are still finals yet to be played."

Tang Tian said with a smile.

"Yes, there is still the final, let's do them again!"

Yao Ming nodded accordingly.

Perhaps most people in the outside world now think that the Chinese team has completed its task in the final, and no one expects them to really beat the US team in the final.

But they have defeated Spain, the team that can most threaten the US team, which shows that they have the strength to fight the US team.

And the group stage has already been defeated once, it is nothing more than another defeat.

Even though Yao Ming hadn't done it before, he was never afraid, just like Tang Tian.

Back in the locker room, the players inevitably had to celebrate.

Because alcohol is not allowed in the Olympic venues, they can only replace it with water, and all of them have become wet men.

But it vented their excitement.

The team members left one after another. Tang Tian rested for a while before leaving with Zhou Qi.

It should be said that although Zhou Qi did not play well in the Olympics this time, his attitude is still very good.

Whenever he has time, he talks to Tang Tian about the details, like a child waiting to be fed.

Tang Tian taught him by precept and deed. After the Olympics, he will be both a father and a mother. He wished for more powerful players in China.

The two were chatting and walking out, and saw two people waiting for him in the passage.

It's Vignelli and Moore.

Vignali is wearing a pair of high heels. She is already tall, but now her legs look even longer, and she will feel that the time is too short.

Zhou Qi reacted fairly quickly. Seeing the two people greeting them, he said hello to Tang Tian and left first.

"Hey Maya, Valentina."

Tang Tian smiled and greeted and hugged the two of them.

When Vignali hugged, she blew hot air into Tang Tian's ear, which made her feel hot.

"Don, I'm really worried now that you're going to beat Team USA in the final."

Moore said with a complicated expression that she and Tang Tian are senior sisters, juniors, and friends.

In the Sino-US war, she didn't want to see the US team lose, nor did she want to see Tang Tian lose.

"If you don't want me to win, I won't win."

Tang Tian also said jokingly.

Moore was amused and laughed, but also a little embarrassed.

However, after three or four years without much contact, she found that Tang Tian was much more cheerful than before.

The three of them walked out while chatting, and Moore went to answer the phone temporarily.

Vignali is now a professional model, and she came to Brazil to promote the brand while taking advantage of the Olympics.

"Are you free at night? I know there's a nice place around here, we can go get something to eat, you know, I'm good at eating."

When Vignali spoke, she unconsciously licked her lips with her tongue.

The implication is obvious enough.

The experience four years ago was limited to verbal exchanges, and she didn't seize the opportunity to communicate in depth. This time she wanted to fill in the gap.

Tang Tian glanced at Vignali.

Long legs, protruding back, and that delicate face.

I have to say that a sexy woman is more flavorful when she matures.

Vignali is a bit like an overripe red apple right now, and it sure tastes good.

"No, my wife and son are still waiting for me to go back."

But Tang Tian refused.

Four years ago he was single, but now he is married.

He still values ​​principles in such matters.

"You came to Rio with your wife?"

Vignali obviously felt that Tang Tian was fooling him.

Tang Tian nodded without further explanation.

Seeing Tang Tian's attitude, Vignali also knew that he was not interested.

She didn't force it either, things like yp can only be done if you like me.

Moore came back in a short while, and after chatting for a few words, he took Vignali away.

Tang Tian looked at the backs of the two of them, smacked his mouth, and then looked away.

He had no intention of doing it again with Vignari, but he was very interested in doing it again with Team USA.

The final is two days later, and in these two days, he has to think about it.

It was also very lucky to win the US team in the group stage by surprise, but the final will definitely not be that simple.

Since the basketball game was included in the Olympic Games, the US team has won 19 gold medals in 15 sessions, but failed to participate once.

The 15/18 probability of winning the gold is already exaggerated, and since the formation of the dream team in 1992, they have only lost in Athens in 2004.

They lost a lot of games in the group stage, but they almost never lost the gold medal.

Just like the Chinese team in Asia, winning the gold medal is a matter of course for them.

They will not be too proud of winning the championship, but will be ashamed of losing it.

Pride and shame are the biggest motivations for winning.

So to beat such a team, you must make some breakthroughs on the current basis.

The final will be held two days later, on the day of the closing ceremony.

This is also the most watched Olympic event, and because the opponents are China and the United States, which have the most basketball attention in the world.

The topicality and ratings of this game far surpassed any NBA Finals and NCAA Finals.

Especially in China, for most fans, Tang Tian is more proud of winning an Olympic championship than winning five NBA championships.

Gambling companies also appear to be very cautious on the China-US war handicap.

The odds of the two teams are 1.5 and 1.7 respectively, very close.

There is such an odds for the US team's game, which is probably the most incredible time in the history of the Olympics.

And a very interesting thing is that on Amazon and other international logistics websites, the purchase volume of heart drugs has increased exponentially in the past two days.

It seems that not only the spinach company, but even the fans are frightened by this battle of the century.

If the Chinese team is really black to the end, many people's hearts will really not be able to bear it.

Two days passed in a flash. On the afternoon of the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, the men's basketball finals of the Olympic Games officially started.

Hall 1 of the Carioca Stadium was full of seats, and the aisles and corridors were filled with fans.

Media outlets from more than 100 countries were also ready for the broadcast.

This is definitely one of the most popular games in this year's Olympics.

And it is unbelievable that more than half of the Chinese people present are stunned for this kind of global competition.

Now even ghosts don't know how they did it.

It can only be said that Chinese fans are really not a little crazy now.

Chapter 884 Great disparity in strength (first update!)

During the entrance ceremony, players from both sides were introduced one after another, followed by a pre-match handshake in midfield.

Players from both sides walked to the midfield to shake hands face to face.

At this time, a very interesting scene happened. Durant happened to be facing Tang Tian, ​​but when he shook hands with Tang Tian, ​​he secretly tried to take advantage of it.

Tang Tian felt it, and then used more force, Durant grinned in pain.

When Tang Tian let go of his hand, his eyes dodged a little, and finally he gave a cold snort.

He suffered a dark loss in vain.

However, it can also be seen from such details that this game is not only between China and the United States, but also between Tang Tian and Durant will be more important than the group stage.

After the entrance ceremony, the starting players of the two teams appeared one after another.

The US team has the same lineup as in the group stage, with Irving and Butler on the outside, Durant and Anthony on the front line, and Jordan Jr. at the center.

The lineup of the Chinese team has changed. The starting point guard has changed from Zhao Jiwei to Guo Ailun.

This change came a bit suddenly. You must know that Zhao Jiwei has been playing with Tang Tian since the beginning of the Olympic Games, and the effect is also very good.

The old coach K obviously didn't expect the Chinese team to make such a change, but he didn't care too much.

Except for Tang Tian and Yi Jianlian, the strength gap between the other players of the Chinese team is not that big, and it will not have a big impact on the game.

Amidst the cheers of the fans at the scene, Jordan turned the ball back to the half of the US team, officially opening the curtain of the Olympic finals.

Jordan stuck Yi Jianlian at the basket, Durant, Irving and Butler all pulled away from the three-point line, and Anthony held the ball in the low post and hit Kolan Baker with his back.

The old coach K reacted very quickly. He discovered the weakness of the Chinese team's lineup from the match between the Chinese team and the Spanish team yesterday.

Kolan Bek worked very hard, but he was too far behind Anthony. Anthony turned around and pushed Kolan Bek with his big butt, and went straight to the layup to score two points.

The Chinese team's offense was firmly doubled by the US team, and Tang Tiantu was assigned to Zhou Peng.

Zhou Peng's shot speed was not too fast, and Anthony quickly returned to the defense to put pressure on him. When he shot, he was interfered, and the basketball smashed out of the frame.

Jordan protected the defensive rebound, and Anthony continued to play on the offensive end. This time, Zhou Peng assisted in the defense, and Anthony passed the ball to Butler.

Butler flew to the basket for a dunk.

Anthony's dislike of passing in the NBA has something to do with his opponents and teammates, and he will pass the ball in the international arena.

The U.S. team started off very smoothly and reasonably.

After the old coach K lost the group match, he obviously paid more attention to the Chinese team and played very targeted.

Tang Tian's double-teamed shot missed, the U.S. team played a defensive counterattack, Irving accelerated in the backcourt, and the rhythm change in the frontcourt passed Guo Ailun's layup.

6 is better than 0!

The US team fully seized the initiative on the field from the very beginning!

This is the overall strength of the US team, they are not only Durant.

After targeting before the game, it is really difficult for the Chinese team to win.

At this time, the fans on the hotline began to boo, saying that it was a pity that the Spanish team lost, and the completely one-sided game was not enjoyable, and words like that emerged endlessly.

Just when they were about to climax, there was a sudden change on the court.

When Tang Tian broke through, Guo Ailun, who was originally in the bottom corner, quietly cut to the basket.
