"We only trailed by five points at halftime, Coach Zhang, this should be the smallest point difference in the history of our game against the United States, right?"

In CCTV's basketball live broadcast room, Sun Zhengping and Zhang Li are commenting on the semifinals between China and the United States. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"To be exact, since NBA professional players can play FIBA games, the lowest point difference, in the Barcelona Olympics in 92, the United States team formed the dream team with NBA players, the dream team did make many countries in the world realize the gap between themselves and the United States team basketball level, but we are also improving, you see, now we are only five points behind at halftime, we are not without any chances, if the men's basketball team can strengthen the defense in the second half, then maybe we can win this game."

When returning to the locker room at halftime, Liu Han sat on the massage table to receive a massage from the team doctor, and in the second quarter, Liu Han hit Kidd in a breakthrough, and Kidd's knee was on Liu Han's calf, although it was a hard injury, but it had a certain impact on Liu Han.

"In the second half, you have to be more active, you have to concentrate, don't eat the feints of the players of the American team, Xiao Yao and Dazhi on the inside should be more aggressive, don't be afraid of the regulations, you can start when the time is right, the free throws of the American team are not good."

Jiang Xinquan is still telling his teammates, originally he didn't have much confidence in this game, but judging from the first half of the game, the Chinese team is not without opportunities.

"Xiao Liu, there's no problem, right? If you can hold it or not, tell me if you can't, and we'll do our best if we can fight so far, it doesn't matter. ”

Jiang Xinquan was afraid that something would happen to Liu Han's body, after all, if he wanted to achieve good results in the future, he had to rely on Liu Han's performance, and he couldn't cause damage to Liu Han's body because of this Olympic Games.

"It doesn't matter, Director Jiang, I don't have a problem, it's just a hard injury."

Liu Han didn't want to give up on this contest easily, he longed for championship glory and not just a medal.

The half-time break ended quickly and the match resumed after the two sides exchanged venues.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the U.S. team first made changes, the interior players did not attack the inside, but pulled to the high post to cover the outside players, the U.S. team's outside players also strengthened the breakthrough, and at the same time, the weak side of the bottom corner and the 45-degree angle The U.S. team also arranged for Alan Houston, the best projection ability, to be on standby, and the U.S. team began to use team collaboration to play the game rather than just the individual ability of the players.

The U.S. team, which began to play tactical offense, made it very difficult for the Chinese team to defend, Liu Han could defend the ball handler and the outside scoring point, but he approached only one person, and the weak side of the Chinese team couldn't make up for it at all, and if the ball holder broke through, it was easy for the U.S. team to cause damage to the Chinese team, which was extremely unfavorable to the Chinese team.

The defense is not in place, the Chinese team can only rely on Liu Han to maintain the efficiency of the offense, fortunately, the American team is still not in place to protect the high position in the defense, and Liu Han's shot on the outside is difficult for the American team to prevent.

The game remained deadlocked in the third quarter.

In the sixth minute of the third quarter, Garnett received a pass from Payton near the baseline and hit Wang Zhizhi with his back, causing Wang Zhizhi to commit his third personal foul and score the ball.

In the FIBA game, players will be sent off after five fouls, and now it is only halfway through the third quarter, Wang Zhizhi has committed three fouls, which is extremely unfavorable for the Chinese team, after all, Wang Zhizhi can reach the three-point line in the offense, and his interior attack is also an important scoring point for the Chinese team to score.

Jiang Xinquan had to replace Wang Zhizhi with Liu Yudong, Bater's movement was too slow, and if he partnered with Yao Min, the speed of the Chinese team would not be able to keep up with the American team at all, so he could only replace Liu Yudong, who had a better attack.

Next, the U.S. team began to frequently let the inside players attack the inside line of the Chinese team, intending to get the absolute height Yao Min down, but Liu Han stood up at this time, he spared no physical strength, frequently pinched the inside line, and gave Mo Ning two big shots, and the Chinese team's defense finally stabilized.

As the game passed minute by minute, the Chinese team was never able to catch up with the score, and what was even more unfavorable was that due to the fierce confrontation of the game, some players of the Chinese team had problems with their physical strength, especially the inside line.

Although Yao Min looks very thin, his height is there, and his height of two meters and twenty-six is much heavier than that of ordinary players of more than one meter and ninety, plus the card position and grab position on the inside line are the most frequent, which makes Yao Min's physical exertion very large, and before the third quarter is over, Yao Min already has a feeling of being out of breath.

Jiang Xinquan, who noticed the decline in Yao Min's rate, had to replace Yao Min and replace him with Bater, and at this time, the Chinese team's internal line completely lost its barrier.

Liu Han still spared no effort to give full play to all his abilities, but after all, the basketball game was played by five people, and he could prevent Payton and Carter from scoring less than ten, but he could not let go of all the offense of the American team, plus the United States had more people playing on the court than the Chinese team, and their physical strength was more abundant.

At the end of the third quarter, the U.S. team once again extended the margin to seven points.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Jiang Xinquan originally planned to let Liu Han rest for two minutes, but Liu Han refused, he didn't want to give up any chances, and now the Chinese team is at an absolute disadvantage, and if he gets off the court, maybe the game will lose suspense in just a few minutes, so Liu Han returned to the court at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

After coming on the court, Liu Han still turned into an all-round display, rebounding, blocking, and organizing offense, and he almost carried all the tasks of the Chinese team.

But it's a pity that the other players of the Chinese team are not strong, it's not that they don't work hard, but after all, the physical fitness is there, although the Chinese team received a period of American-style training before the start of the Olympic Games, but some gaps can not be caught up in a year or two, which even requires the efforts of one or two generations to be effective.

The Chinese team, which had physical problems, had problems in defense and offense, and the speed of the players began to decline, and the shots and various movements began to be irregular, which made the American team gradually widen the point difference.

In desperation, Liu Han could only attack by himself, he showed all his abilities, low-post offense, outside three-pointers, breakthroughs, and all kinds of unreasonable shots, but even so, it could not make up for the gap between the two teams as a whole, when there were three minutes left in the fourth quarter of the game, the United States team expanded the difference to 14 points, and the Chinese team was gone.

Jiang Xinquan replaced Liu Han, who was soaked in sweat, and gave up the game, Liu Han did his best in this game, and everyone in the Chinese team tried their best.

In the end, the Chinese team unfortunately lost the game 98-86, Liu Han played 36 minutes, scored 49 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists, although he was defeated, no one will say that Liu Han has stayed away from basketball, although he left the NBA, but he is still the king of basketball.
