The Celestial Empire men's basketball team continued to use the starting lineup from the previous game.
And the Spanish men's basketball team also sent their strongest starters:
C Pau Gasol
PF Yog Gabajosa
SF Carlos Gimenez
SG Juan Navarro
PG Jose Calderón
And on their bench, there are also Marc Gasol, Rudy Fernandez, and their golden boy, the long-awaited Ricky Rubio in the NBA.
Da Yao and Gasol jump the ball in the center circle, and in the NBA, Yao Ming is often at the bottom of the showdown between the two, and Da Yao is equally eager to prove himself.
After jumping the ball, Ruan Erniu got the falling basketball and passed it to Liu Wei.
Liu Wei dribbled the ball through the half, Da Yao was in the inside line for the first time, Gasol chose to go around the front defense for the first time, Liu Wei did not pass the ball, and had to hand the ball to Ruan Erniu on the outside.
Erniu shot directly outside the three-point line, and there was a first record for the men's basketball team.
Under FIBA rules, Erniu's three-point shot is really resolute.
Calderon dribbled across half court and Navarro took the ball from beyond the three-point line.
"Bang!"
missed, Ruan Erniu won the backcourt rebound, and immediately launched a counterattack with the ball himself.
Before the Espanyol position was firm, Zhu Fangyu received the ball in front of the court and shot again!
Although in the last game, Zhu 8 missed the key killer ball, but no one blamed him, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team was able to lose only one point to the Dream Eight team, which was already the result of super-level performance, Zhu 8 did not throw in but was just a little unlucky.
Spain, who came up and fell behind by 6 points, quickly adjusted their tactics, and they passed the ball to Gasol on the inside.
Gasol faced Yao Ming, which was a beautiful inside cut.
Da Yao was indeed a little worse than his sister-in-law in terms of footsteps, and his sister-in-law stretched her arms and threw her hand.
Just when he thought he could score the first point for Spain, Nguyen Er Niu came out from the flank and slapped Gasol's throw on the rebound with a big hat.
Since the Celestial Empire men's basketball team has Ruan Erniu, their defensive level has gone up a big step, Da Yao can withstand most of the centers in this world, and Erniu's bounce and grasp of the timing have added a lid to the no-fly zone of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team.
Sun Yue picked up this rebound, dribbled the ball through the half court for the first time, and after leaning on Navarro's defense, he forced a shot from the middle distance and hit it.
It also caused Navarro to foul and add a penalty!
Sun Yue hit the penalty and added a penalty.
At 9:0, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team once again made a fantastic start.
The Spanish men's basketball team had to ask for a timeout, and they had to interrupt the offensive of the Celestial Empire men's basketball team and rearrange the defense.
At the end of the timeout, they replaced Gabajosa and Calderón with Marc Gasol and Rubio.
Calderon was replaced because Calderon had a groin injury that he had not healed. Gasol Jr. was replaced by Gabajosa in order to make Spain's interior line taller and increase the defensive intensity.
Da Yao still resisted Jia's sister-in-law, while Ruan Erniu needed to resist Xiao Jia on the defensive end.
At this time, Mark Gasol had not yet joined the NBA, he had long messy hair and an unshaved beard.
If he wasn't a professional player, some people might think that he was the older brother.
Gasol Jr.'s strength is definitely a first-rate existence in Spain, but in front of Ruan Erniu, it is much worse.
Erniu easily pushed him outside the three-second zone, and the young and vigorous Xiaojia still forced him to turn over and shoot.
missed, but the shrewd sister-in-law won the frontcourt rebound, shot a backhand hook, and scored the first goal of the Spanish men's basketball team against Da Yao.
After Ruan Erniu received the ball in a high position, a straight plug was given to Da Yao on the inside. Yao Ming leaned on his sister-in-law and completed a hook, and he was also hit!
Since then, the scores of the two teams have been in a stalemate, and the Celestial Empire men's basketball team has always maintained a advantage of about 5-9 points, but it does not want to go further.
At the end of the first quarter, at 14:21, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team led by 7 points.
The second quarter of the game began quickly.
On the offensive end of the Spanish team, Navarro first took advantage of the cover of his sister-in-law, took a step outside the three-point line and shot directly, and hit!
Bomb Navarro is a dangerous man who needs attention at any time.
Yu Jia in the commentary seat said: "Be very careful of Navarro, he may attack like an assassin at any time!"
Chen Jianghua dribbled the ball across the half, and Ruan Erniu raised it to cover.
After the former broke through, he passed back to Ruan Erniu, and Erniu shot at a mid-range distance and hit!
The Spanish men's basketball team and the Celestial Empire men's basketball team once again fell into a scorching offensive and defensive battle in the second quarter of the game.
THE TWO SIDES EITHER SHOOT EACH OTHER'S ANSWERBALLS OR HIT THE BASKET TOGETHER IN A ROW.
But in the second half of this quarter, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team broke out.
Wang Zhizhi, who had just come on the court, stood up, and he used his footsteps to play Gasol Jr. outside the three-point line, stepped back one after another, and hit two three-pointers, opening the score in one fell swoop.
Then Liu Wei also put the icing on the cake to meet Rubio and hit a 3+1 to further open the score.
Sister-in-law asked for the ball inside, and he was slightly impatient, and under the interference of Yao Ming, he threw a three-point shot.
Wang Zhizhi went down quickly, after receiving the ball in the front court. Shoot directly outside the three-point line, and hit again!
The Spanish team was stopped!
Ruan Erniu waved his towel excitedly, this Celestial Empire men's basketball team is indeed not fighting alone!
They are qualified to attack higher goals, even if it is the Spanish men's basketball team, the Celestial Empire is also the capital of a fight.
At the end of the timeout, Gasol responded with the horns, and the empty Fernandez received the basketball, attacked the basket directly, and scored!
Younas then replaced Da Yao and Wang Zhizhi with Ruan Erniu and Yi Jianlian.
Da Yao needs to rest, while Wang Zhizhi is not effective in protecting the inside, and in Younas's view, protecting the basket comes first.
As soon as Ruan Erniu came on the court, he shot directly outside the three-point line and hit!
The Spanish men's basketball team is in big trouble, and they can't stop the Celestial Empire who are in madness.
As the time of the second quarter passed, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team always maintained the lead in the score.
At 42:57, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team has stretched the score gap to 15 points, and the first half of the game ended as Gasol Jr. missed the last shot in the face of Yi Jianlian.
The huge advantage of 15 points once again blinded the eyes of countless people, it was accidental to be able to lead the world-class team once, and it was able to lead so much twice, which is a symbol of strength.
In this Olympic Games, the Celestial Empire men's basketball team is really not an Olympic quarter-finalist that can be beaten.
The fans at the scene cheered wildly, no matter what the final result was, at least they were happy at the moment.
The scene of pressing a world-class team to the ground and beating it is also an unfamiliar scene for Celestial Empire fans.
Regardless of whether it is the United States men's basketball team or the Spanish men's basketball team, at this time, old fans are usually discussing the topic of how much to lose, but now the topic of discussion among fans is: How do we stay ahead and win the game?
In the locker room of the home team, Ruan Erniu said to everyone: "We have to win this game, the Spaniards have nothing to fear, even against the Mi team, we only lost by 1 point, we are the stronger side." ”
Ruan Erniu once again stole the concept, when it comes to the depth of the lineup, it is obvious that the Spanish team is superior, but now no one will come to his loophole, because the Celestial Empire men's basketball team only thinks about victory.
This time, they won't let the opportunity slip out of their hands!
