In this World Championships, we have a very strong squad of the golden generation.

They went out into the world wearing the jersey of Asian champions.

However, it was also divided into Group D, which is known as the 'Group of Death', which has a lot of strong teams.

The United States, the favourite team in the title race, and Italy, the most consistent team, are in Group D.

Therefore, at the beginning of the group stage, our golden generation faced a lot of tests.

After dinner, the family sat nervously in front of the TV, ready to watch the first game of the World Championships - our golden generation against the Italian team.

To be fair, the team with Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian at the time was a promising challenge to Italy, who finished silver in Athens two years earlier.

However, unfortunately, Dazhi's leg injury has not healed, so in general, he still suffers from the Italian team.

Although Yao Ming has always been very active, it is difficult to support it alone.

This match against the Italian team was ultimately lost, and the score was very different.

Due to the loss in the first game, the rest of the game is inevitably a bit of pressure.

The second game is to face the star-studded American Dream Seven.

It was a game that was destined to be tough. Because the U.S. team did not play well in the previous World Basketball Championships and the Olympics, this time the Dream Seven team sent almost all the popular American stars of the NBA.

It's a terrible team with James, Howard, Sean Battier, Wade, Anthony, as well as Paul. How strong it is?—— there are people in every position who can be on the NBA All-Star lineup.

Of course, there is still a fly in the ointment of this team, and that is Kobe's injury.

It is precisely because of Kobe's injury that the entire picturesque lineup has some slight flaws.

In the face of such a terrifying team, Younas, as the head coach, also seems to have a lot of headaches.

However, Xiao Zhen still waited in front of the TV, wanting to see if our golden generation could do something.

However, the results were far more tragic than Xiao Zhen expected.

In the end, Xiao Zhen cried when he saw this game.

Although Yao Ming and other players have worked very hard. However, the American dream team still seems so pale in the face of such an American dream team.

Lao Wu touched Wu Zhen's head and said, "Okay, okay, it will be fine later." We have to believe in Yao Ming, Yao Ming will definitely make our golden generation go further!"

"Well, I'm sure we'll get better later. Wu Zhen wiped his tears.

After playing two games, there will be a day off in between, so this afternoon I watched a match between Germany and Spain.

Dirk Nowitzki struggled against a Spanish side led by Pau Gasol. While the battle between the two top strikers is pretty much half-hearted, Gasol has received a lot more help from his teammates than Nowitzki.

The following day's game, our golden generation gradually picked up, and although they still lost to Puerto Rico by three points, the division of labor in each position was clearer. After this competition, Yao Ming's play as the main scoring force has taken shape.

Five games, three lost, it stands to reason that it should be demoralized.

Surprisingly, though, despite all these defeats, our golden generation gradually gained momentum in the next match against Senegal, with five players scoring in double figures!

Such a timely victory was crucial. The evil spirit of continuous failure was all spit out at once, and the confidence was played, and at the same time, there was also a chance to fight for the qualification.

Because in this World Championships, only two of the five games in the group need to win to qualify for the round of 16!

So, on the last day before the start of military training, the fierce match with Slovenia that decided the final fate began.

After lunch, Xiao Zhen and his grandparents happily began to watch the game in front of the TV.

"Okay, Yao Ming got the ball. Grandma said happily.

"Well, this one must be entered. Xiao Zhen said.

"Haha, it's up to Yao Ming in this game, after all, Slovenia also has a lot of NBA players. Grandpa said with a smile.

As the game progressed, the crowd became nervous, after all, this match will decide the fate of both teams.

The winner will qualify, while the loser will end the journey to the World Championships.

As a result, the scores of the two teams have been very tight throughout the process, and they are basically in the process of taking turns to score.

However, at the end of the second quarter, it still looked a little dangerous, and the score of 38-46 was not easy to chase back.

However, we know that the world of basketball is never short of miracles.

At the beginning of the third quarter, our golden generation scored one after another, and directly overtook the score.

"Good job! Yao Ming! Come on! Wang Zhizhi!" Grandma also shouted happily.

For the rest of the day, the score was tight until the end of the third quarter, when the score was 57-59.

At this point, the game was very delicate, and both teams were desperate to win, so the two teams fought hard in the final quarter.

62—63，65—65……

The score was tight and the players on both sides played very hard.

Our golden generation is united to get attacking opportunities for Yao Ming.

At the same time, Yao Ming has lived up to expectations and has maintained a very high efficiency.

At the same time, though, Slovenia are playing quite well, because they also want to win and want to go one step further on this stage.

Therefore, this game has been difficult to distinguish between winners and losers in the following time, and the game has gradually reached a climax with such wave of development.

However, our golden generation still didn't seem to be very lucky, and when they hit 75-75, they were hit by Slovenia with a two-point shot.

It was a delicate situation because there was not much time left in the game – just 5.8 seconds and the ball was still at the back.

We know that it takes time to run to the backcourt and shoot.

So, this has almost decided the future of both teams. On camera, the Slovenian team members have excited expressions on their faces.

Wu Zhenzhen and his grandparents were also full of helplessness when they looked at such a situation.

However, our golden generation has not given up, and they are changing their destiny with practical actions.

Since the Slovenian player's scoring did not pause this time, Liu Wei kicked the baseline as soon as he got the ball after Slovenia's hook shot.

Wang Shipeng drove the ball all the way to the left side of the front, and the Slovenian defenders had already started to interfere.

However, the Slovenian defenders were unable to stop Wang Shipeng's next operation.

Naturally, in general, it is almost impossible to do anything in such a situation. On the one hand, this place is still so far from the basket, and on the other hand, Wang Shipeng has not scored before this game.

However, without warning, Wang Shipeng jumped up at a very long distance and took a three-point shot. You must know that once you throw, you can overtake the score and eliminate Slovenia by virtue of the win.

At this moment, the audience in front of the TV and at the scene seemed to be holding their breath, watching Wang Shipeng's action.

"Can you enter?" said Xiao Zhen weakly.

"Haha, this is a classic!" said Grandma with a smile.

Just as everyone was expecting, the ball slowly floated into the basket in a graceful arc, and at the same time, the smiles on the faces of the Slovenian players gradually froze.

"Ball-in-in-goal!goal-in-in!goal-in-in!" The players and the audience were excited.

Wang Shipeng ran wildly on the court, and the excitement was self-evident.

It wasn't until he hugged Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi and others one by one that Wang Shipeng stopped.

Of course, the Slovenian team also played a good game, but fate seemed to play a little joke on them.

After all, what unfolded in front of them was a real miracle.

As a result, Yao Ming's persistence and Wang Shipeng's miraculous shot successfully sent our golden generation to the top 16!

Looking at this hard-won victory, Xiao Zhen shed tears of emotion.

Looking at the statistics of all the games, Yao Ming once again proved to the world what a great Chinese center is.

So, with the good mood of winning this game, Xiao Zhen seriously prepared the new equipment for the start of school.

At this time, it happened that a cartoon called "Psychic King" was on the air.

Looking at the protagonist in the animation, "The boat is naturally straight to the bridge." "Xiao Zhen is full of confidence in the future days of Blue Sky Middle School.

That night, Lao Wu looked at the text message in his hand and said, "Okay, I'm going to report tomorrow morning, and I will start military training the day after tomorrow, and I will study by myself every afternoon, are you ready?"

"Okay, I'm ready, I'm looking forward to it. Xiao Zhen said happily.
