Chapter 181: The Great War between China and the United States (End)
How fast Liu Han's first step starts, which has long been recognized in the entire NBA, the average defensive player can hardly keep up with Liu Han's speed, even the top outside defenders need to predict Liu Han's move in advance to find a way to keep up with Liu Han's first step, such a speed once made the entire NBA very surprised, because in the general perception, the yellow race is born with a disadvantage in explosiveness, which makes Liu Han has been one of the main objects of research on various physical coaches in the NBA.

Liu Han's ten years of unremitting training has kept his physical condition very good, coupled with his unique muscle memory ability, which makes his muscle tissue firmly remember this feeling after forming an inherent habit, and the first step of super fast is also thanks to this.
When Liu Han's first step was taken, James's center of gravity happened to be moving, and Liu Han's rhythm was very accurate.
James was shocked when he saw Liu Han's movement, and he forced his body to twist his center of gravity, but it was too late, and by the time he tried to catch up with Liu Han again, Liu Han had completely gotten rid of his two positions.
The U.S. team attaches great importance to Liu Han's defense, James has just been directly passed by Liu Han, and Iverson, who is making up for the defense, is already in place, Iverson directly let go of Li Nan on the bottom line, and defending Liu Han must be the most important thing at this time.
In the face of Iverson's frontal defense, as well as James who kept chasing behind him, Liu Han did not slow down in the high-speed dribble breakthrough, and Liu Han changed the direction of the breakthrough after a limit of the crotch dribble, but this also made him completely caught in the four bread sandwiches of the American team.
Iverson on the left pressed closely, Anthony on the right also caught up, and with James' defense behind him, Liu Han almost lost all the space to move.
But in such a small space, Liu Han suddenly made a sharp stop, and then dribbled behind his right hand to change direction, which made Iverson and James start to move left, and then Liu Han deftly swiped the ball in the opposite direction behind the left back again, and Liu Han himself suddenly took a step back.
Liu Han's left-hand touch made the ball suddenly fall to the ground, and then drilled under Anthony's crotch in his shocked eyes.
In an instant, the three of them were easily freed by Liu Han.
At this time, Liu Han did not have many options, after all, there were only three seconds left in the attack time.
Liu Han, who just retreated to the three-point line, stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around the basketball, and then quickly pushed the ball out before James could come up to make up the defense, which was not a regular shooting move, but it was definitely the fastest shot.
At this time, there was still an exclamation in the stadium, because Liu Han's flickering and moving between square inches was really amazing.
Although the basketball is thrown in an unconventional motion, the arc in which the ball slides is as beautiful as ever.
"Brush—"
The basketball drilled into the net accurately, and Liu Han single-handedly allowed the Chinese team to occupy the lead again.
At this moment, the players of the American team finally began to be dumbfounded, they expected Liu Han to make his own shot in the previous timeout, but they did not expect Liu Han to still resolutely make his own shot in such a extreme situation, at this moment, he did not do it selfishly, but truly fearless.
After Liu Han hit the ball, Larry Brown decisively called the team's last timeout, leaving only 29 seconds for the United States.
Twenty-nine seconds, three points ahead, the Chinese team has an absolute advantage, the United States team has stood on the edge of the cliff, if they can't play three points in the next attack, then defeat will be their only result.
"Break through, look for opportunities to hit the basket, we play quick two-point shots, and then foul, this is our No. 1 tactic, but if the opponent guards our breakthrough, then find an opportunity to shoot on the perimeter, this is our only chance, gentlemen, the United States can't accept this defeat, and if we lose, we will all become synonymous with shame."
Last minute, Larry? Brown's words were already threatening, and he himself was actually a little overwhelmed, and even the tactics he arranged were the kind between the two sides, lacking resolute courage and momentum.
After the last timeout was exhausted, the U.S. team broke down to serve from the halfway line.
The Chinese team's defensive position is still joint defense, but they have expanded their defense a lot this time.
James passed the ball into the field outside the halfway line, Iverson suddenly encountered Liu Han's tight defense after receiving the ball, and the original joint defense position of the Chinese team was suddenly changed to a mark-to-man defense after the American team sent the ball, and each player almost kept up with the American team players.
In the face of Liu Han's close pressing, although Iverson stabilized the ball, they also lost the opportunity to play a quick two-point shot.
The players of the U.S. team were also desperate at this time, and Duncan on the inside had already expanded beyond the three-point line to cover his teammates, and each of them was running at almost a desperate rate.
However, the players of the Chinese team are also completely desperate at this time, and all kinds of rotations and fills have been done to the extreme.
Iverson slowly dribbled to accelerate, Duncan came up to cover him, but Liu Han moved ahead to try to avoid the cover, Iverson took the opportunity to suddenly accelerate around Liu Han's defense and go straight inside.
However, Wang Zhizhi's clever early card position blocked the line broken by Iverson, and at the same time, Liu Han and the other players of the Chinese team also suddenly contracted, completely blocking the line broken by the American team.
Iverson had no choice but to attack, and even if he scored two points at this time, it would be useless.
Iverson passed the ball to Duncan on the perimeter with ten seconds left on the offensive clock.
Due to the previous change, it was Liu Han who was defending Duncan head-on at this time.
Liu Han directly attached Duncan, so that Duncan lost the rhythm of direct shots, and Duncan did not panic at the critical moment, he raised the ball high, and then passed the ball to James after James leaned over.
At this time, Liu Han and Zhu Fangyu, who was chasing James, made a change, Liu Han stared at James, and there was not much time left for the game to attack, so James decided to come by himself.
With three seconds left in the offensive time, James suddenly became strong directly outside the three-point line, and Liu Han jumped up as soon as possible.
Although James is a rookie, he has the courage to take responsibility, but it also makes him overestimate his own strength.
James stretched his body as far as he could in the air, he had to dodge Liu Han's block, and in the extreme position, James threw the ball high, but the seemingly unbeatable Chinese in front of him was like a mountain.
Liu Han felt that he had touched the ball lightly almost at the limit, and it was really his fingertips that touched the ball lightly.
The basketball flew high and bounced off the front of the basket, and James paid the price for his pride, and as Liu Han said, he needs to practice his three-point shooting in the future.
Although Yao Min was bumped by Duncan who rushed in the air, he still desperately grabbed the rebound, and the players of the American team were unwilling to come up and foul, but at this time they were already in the general trend.
Although the referee blew the whistle and signaled the Chinese team Yao Min to make a free throw, everyone in the Chinese team was already cheering at this time, Yao Min fell to the ground holding the ball deadly, and Liu Han was also lying on the ground and couldn't move.
The indescribable excitement shocked everyone, and the voices of the outside world at this time could not touch the players of the Chinese team who were in extreme excitement.
When Yao Min hit two free throws steadily, everyone in the Chinese team jumped up with excitement, and with less than six seconds left in the game, the Chinese team was about to advance to the Olympic men's basketball finals.
