The Asian Dream Team is worthy of the name.

The opponent of the Chinese team in the final is the Lebanese team that defeated the South Korean team.

Lebanon is a small country on the edge of Israel. Its land area is about the same as Tianjin in our country. It is a small country.

But this small country loves basketball and regards it as the number one sport.

They also produced a player who will be famous in Asia in the future.

Lebanese Jordan, Asian LeBron, Asia's No. [-] small forward Fatih Khatib.

If you don't have much impression of him, just treat him as an enhanced version of Ding Yan Yuhang.

His confrontation ability is particularly good, and he is good at confronting layups and even dunks.

And his organizational skills are also very good.

There is a saying that describes it very well. If he is Chinese, then he will be the second player in Asian basketball besides Yao Ming.

Of course, Khatib is only 21 years old now, and he is far from reaching his peak.

But before reaching the peak, he led his team to defeat the South Korean team and made it to the final of the Asian Championships historically, which in itself is enough to explain the problem.

Moreover, the overall strength of the Lebanese team is not weak. In addition to Khatib, they also have a large number of naturalized players.

This is also a major feature of West Asian basketball.

The national population limits their overall basketball level, so they rely on naturalization to raise the upper limit.

This time in the Asian Championships, Walid and Vogel are all representatives.

In other words, Lebanon is strong and will be the strongest opponent the Chinese team will face in this Asian Championship.

Facing this strongest opponent, the Chinese team... should practice and rest.

Not contempt, but confidence.

After this series of games, the Chinese team has built up enough self-confidence.

On the night of the finals, the arena was packed to the brim. This was the night of the championship.

Seeing your own team win the championship at your doorstep is definitely a great joy in life.

Of course, the Lebanese team doesn't think so.

When warming up before the game, Zhang Weiping went to the field to interview Khatib.

"What do you think the odds of Lebanon winning tonight are?"

Director Zhang spoke Chinese.english which was not much better than Wang Zhizhi, but he also wanted to dampen the morale of the Lebanese team before the game.

"We have a good chance of winning and I'm confident and I believe we can do it."

But Khatib's answer was surprising.

The 21-year-old looks youthful and confident.

"What is the source of your confidence?"

Zhang Weiping asked with a smile.

"Our confrontation, our defense, we will continue to play defensive counterattacks."

Khatib's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.

Zhang Weiping nodded with a smile.

He felt that this guy was going to get a blow tonight.

After the warm-up, the scene entered the opening ceremony, and the two teams started to play one after another.

On the Lebanese team, Walid, Fahd, Khatib, Haji, Vogel.

For the Chinese team, Wang Fei also used the same starting lineup.

Sun Hao and Hu Weidong's outside line, Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi's inside line, plus a little Li Feidao.

After the opening ceremony, both sides are making the final arrangements before the game.

At the commentary seat, Zhang Weiping and Su Qun talked eloquently.

"The last time we played against the Lebanese team was also the first time we played against each other. It was in Fukuoka, Japan two years ago. At that time, we went to avenge South Korea. We met Lebanon and won them by 40 points."

Su Qun did his homework before the game.

"Yes, I was there for that game, and Xiao Hu performed very well."

Zhang Weiping agreed with a smile.

That's why he laughed because of Khatib's words before.

The overall strength of that men's basketball team is far inferior to this men's basketball team, but it still won more than 40 points, let alone this men's basketball team.

Although the strength of the Lebanese team has also become stronger, it is not enough to compete with the Chinese team.

The game started immediately, and both sides started to play one after another.

With a whistle from the referee on the sidelines, Yao Ming gave the Chinese team the first chance to attack.

The Lebanese team's defense at the beginning was relatively wide, and they did a lot of work before the game.

Sun Hao lobbed the ball to Yao Ming inside, Yao Ming hit Vogel with his back, turned around and missed the shot.

Vogel is an American, and he is at his peak, with both experience and ability. Yao Ming is not as easy to fight as before.

This may also be one of Khatib's confidence sources, they are not afraid of Yao Ming's inside attack.

Vogel protected the defensive rebound, threw it to Khatib, and the Lebanese team played a defensive counterattack.

Their advance is fast.

Khatib and Walid's two-on-one frontcourt.

Walid passed the ball to Khatib, and Khatib got up across Hu Weidong and directly dunked.

The old little Hu that Zhang Weiping said had become an old Hu after being injured, and he couldn't get up now.

"Oh!"

In the stunned eyes of the fans at the scene, Khatib just smashed the ball into the basket through Hu Weidong.

There was a burst of amazement.

Zhang Weiping was stunned at the commentary booth.

Khatib's physical fitness is a bit abnormal!

No wonder people dared to speak like that before the game, people have some strength!

After the dunk, Khatib clenched his fists with both hands and raised his head and roared, his arms bulging with veins.

Lebanon's bench is also a towel waving.

They were underestimated infinitely in this duel, just like what Khatib said before the game, they want to prove that all underestimates are wrong!

They reached the finals by virtue of their strength!

The Chinese team advanced to the frontcourt again, and Sun Hao directly signaled Yao Ming to play high and let Wang Zhizhi go low.

Yao Ming's advantage over Vogel is not that big, and the West Asian team is strong in confrontation, so there is no need to consume it to death.

On the contrary, such a game is very suitable for Wang Zhizhi to play.

The ball went in, Wang Zhizhi hit Haji with his back in the low post, turned around and scored a shot.

Many of his movements are borrowed from the opponent's strength, which looks extraordinarily light.

This is also a major reason why he was called the chasing boy in the first place.

2 to 2, both teams scored a goal in the opening game.

After retreating back, the Chinese team also defended and expanded their defense.

The NBA is already pushing for the introduction of a defensive three-second rule next season, but FIBA ​​has never had a defensive three-second rule.

Yao Ming standing under the basket is enough to defend.

The Lebanese team had no chance outside, Khatib took the ball and charged Li Nan hard.

His confrontation is really strong, and Li Nan can't stop it at all.

After squeezing past Li Nan, Khatib made a quick layup to challenge Yao Ming.

"Snapped!"

However, he obviously underestimated Yao Ming's defense, and more precisely, he underestimated Yao Ming's lower body strength.

After a confrontation, he didn't get the advantage he imagined, but was forced to make a shot.

Yao Ming directly rewarded him with a big hot pot!

The ball was covered in Li Nan's hands, and the Chinese team turned around and played a fast break.

Sun Hao assisted Hu Weidong who followed up in the fast break, and the latter also flew and scored a dunk, regaining some face for the ball just now.

"Khatib's body is really good, but he underestimated the Chinese team."

Zhang Weiping said with a smile at the commentary booth, he doesn't have the property of poisonous milk, but a man who has mastered "Zhang Weiping's law".

However, Khatib is young and energetic, and he is a bit unbelieving. After picking and rolling with Vogel, he played against Yao Ming after a small fight.

His skills are also very good. First, he gave Yao Ming a confrontation, and then stepped forward to widen the distance and make a quick shot.

But Yao Ming is really tall, he took a step to catch up with the big hand.

"Snapped!"

He gave Khatib two big hot pots in a row!

Yao Ming: Thank you Khatib for the opportunity to block shots.

The cheers of the fans exploded.

Yao Ming's offensive performance tonight is weaker than the previous games, but his presence on the defensive end is overwhelming!

Sun Hao also smiled at this time.

This scene looks so much like the 2007 Finals.

At that time, James hadn't developed his projection yet, and he was so rampant.

As a result, everyone knows that the little emperor, who entered the finals for the first time, was directly swept by the Spurs 4-0, and a super meme was born.

After the ball was blocked, it fell into Hu Weidong's hands.

Hu Weidong returned the favor and assisted Sun Hao for a fast break layup and scored another 2 points.

6:2.

Before the game, Khatib said that he would defeat the Chinese team through defensive counterattacks.

As a result, it is now the Lebanese team who are constantly being counterattacked by the Chinese team!

Lebanon reorganized the frontcourt.

After Khatib was blocked twice in a row, he was obviously much more honest.

He took the ball and started to play the organization. After receiving the ball, Walid made a sudden stop and made a mid-range shot...and missed.

In a basketball game, the impact of statistics is not limited to just a few numbers, especially blocks, which will have a great impact on the morale of both sides.

Yao Ming protected the defensive rebound. This time the Lebanese team retreated fairly quickly and did not give the Chinese team a direct counterattack to score.

Entering the positional battle, Sun Hao continued to feed the ball to the inside Wang Zhizhi.

Wang Zhizhi also continued to hit Haji, which was another leverage, and he also used his footsteps.

Wang Zhizhi's pace is very slow, a bit like the future "Time Lord" Kyle Anderson, slow but rhythmic.

Haji was obviously cheated, and Wang Zhizhi scored two more points.

Wang Zhizhi's ability to become the first Chinese player selected by the NBA is not only due to Nelson's China complex, but also his strength is also top in Asia.

8:2.

Khatib's opening dunk was absolutely wonderful, but like Zhang Weiping said, he didn't realize the strength gap between the two teams.

This is the same as the reason why students get 100 points in the exam.
