Chapter 256: What? The Qing Dynasty is dead?!

"We, do you want to ......?"

Adam Mosaic turned to Stern and looked at the referee on the field as he spoke.

I didn't finish the words, but the meaning was very clear, I was going to put pressure on the referee.

"Nope."

Stern decisively refused.

He felt that his assistant was really sick with his brain a lot of the time.

They are in the NBA league, although this is a game in the United States, but this is a World Championship and the referee is FIBA.

Not to mention whether the pressure will work, if it leaks, the negative impact on the NBA will be devastating.

He felt that he might have to consider changing his assistant, and with Mosaic's brain, the NBA might really be ruined in his hands one day.

However, the mosaic is a wave of Wei Yan-style depression.

If the U.S. team really loses to the Chinese team, the influence of the NBA will definitely be affected.

Meridian Valley conspiracy, he thinks of things that others can't think of, but the result is not taken seriously.

Coming back from half-time, both teams made changes to their starting line-up.

Pierce was pushed to the No. 2 position, Marion was the starting small forward, and the starting center was changed from Antonio Davis to Ben Wallace.

Carl gave the U.S. a big change.

This adjustment has indeed worked.

Marion's defensive ability and counter-attacking ability are really good.

The run-and-bomb team in history, he relied on these fights to thrive, and was named a "hacker" by fans.

And Big Ben's card position and scramble for rebounds are obviously better than Davis.

In addition, Carl resolutely pinched Sun Hao.

As soon as the U.S. team came up in the second half, they started a crazy scoring mode.

The difference is narrowing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye.

In the cheers of the fans at the scene, with Marion scoring another fast-break layup, the difference was narrowed to 9 points, single digits!

Wang Fei called a timeout.

There were whistles at the scene.

Although the U.S. team played the same in the first half, it was not bad to suppress and then rise, and a big reversal!

"We're on the defensive."

Wang Fei spoke for the first time, and he found that Reggie Miller didn't play, and the United States team's three points didn't seem to be good.

After all, I have studied in the NBA, and the response is still very fast.

And with this timeout, he also replaced Battle with Wang Zhizhi.

Sun Hao saw Wang Zhizhi on the field and whispered to him for a while.

After the timeout, the Chinese team attacked.

Yao Ming responded to a wave at the free throw line first, but there was no chance.

After the height of the U.S. team's wings came up, the overall defensive quality improved a lot.

Yao Ming gave the ball to Sun Hao, and Sun Hao motioned for Wang Zhizhi to pull to the high post to block the demolition.

The U.S. team is still the main player who pounces on Sun Hao, not giving him three points, nor letting him pass the ball out easily.

But at this moment, something happened that the American team didn't expect.

Sun Hao didn't go out after dismantling the ball, but killed directly with a cat's waist.

It was a very different choice than in the first half.

And when he was rushing in, Wang Zhizhi was also going out.

As a result, Sun Hao passed through the bag, and when he burst into the penalty area, only Brand was left in front of him.

Brand is on the short side, but he has an excellent reach and is not bad defensively.

And behind Sun Hao, Miller is also chasing.

Attacking back and forth, even if Sun Hao chooses to make an emergency stop in the middle distance, he will definitely be disturbed.

But!

Sun Hao chose ...... Close Throw!

Once again, this choice came as a surprise.

You must know that before Sun Hao, he didn't have this offensive technique!

Brand's reaction was noticeably slower by half a beat.

The ball goes past his defense and falls towards the basket.

"Huh!"

Sun Hao throws and scores!

Although he hasn't practiced to unlock the badge yet, he has been practicing in the system for most of the season!

The U.S. team attacked the front court and soon found that the Chinese team's defensive formation had changed.

A standard 2-3 combo defense, with the main defense under the basket.

The U.S. team didn't stand a chance with a wave of tactical attempts.

Originally, Yao Ming covered the sky under the basket.

Coupled with the joint defense, it not only made up for Wang Zhizhi's defensive shortcomings, but also turned the interior into an iron bucket formation.

Marion tried a three-pointer from the outside, which was noticeably short.

Although FIBA's three-point line is closer, as judged by Wang Fei, Miller can't play, and the outside projection ability of this American team is very limited!

Seal Pierce, and their outside ability is basically gone.

Yao Ming grabbed the defensive rebound, and the Chinese team in turn played the defensive counterattack of the American team.

Sun Hao was a dragon and advanced to the front court against Miller's defense.

Miller's defense was in place, and Sun Hao threw another shot in the air after the confrontation.

This ball looks quite handsome.

I have to say that throwing is really a very practical way to score.

When there is no chance to shoot, you can force a scoring opportunity!

And Sun Hao has a strong confrontation ability, this ball looks difficult, but he shoots very steadily.

"Huh!"

Sun Hao, another throwing score!

The scene was agitated.

It's Sun Hao again!

In the first half, Sun Hao's 3 three-pointers opened the difference.

As a result, in the second half, seeing that he was about to catch up with the score, it was Sun Hao again, and he opened the score with 2 throws!

Damn Sun Hao! This is not for the American team to live!

But in the stands, Cuban's eyes were excited.

One round doesn't mean anything, but two rounds.

Sun Hao has developed a new scoring method!

This learning ability and progress speed are the same as Kobe's!

He now has a little more confidence in the Mavericks' performance next season.

It's not just Cuban who is excited, but Barkley as well.

Actually, just like Sun Hao thought, it was really not prejudice or anything that he caught Sun Hao's wool mattress in the commentary seat.

He just wants a show effect.

Now seeing Sun Hao's progress, he already had some restless hearts in front of him, and he was already ready to move.

Sun Hao's consecutive scoring was crucial, successfully holding down the momentum of the American team's counterattack.

And this also determines the final trend of the game.

Sun Hao was substituted with 2 minutes left in the third quarter, and then was re-replaced at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and then played the whole fourth quarter.

The U.S. team seemed to be held down by seven inches, and no matter how much they struggled, they couldn't turn the score.

The mood of the fans at the scene was also like a bear market in the stock market, falling again and again.

At halftime, they thought: The Dream Team is not going to lose, is it?

At the end of the third quarter, their thoughts were: Are the Dream Team really going to lose?

At the end of the fourth quarter: Team USA, lost!

81 to 91.

In the final quarter, the entire U.S. team fought back desperately, and none of them wanted to be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

But the Chinese team withstood in the end!

The Chinese team ended the 58-game winning streak of the American team in the World Series!

On the U.S. side, Pierce scored a team-high 21 points, Ben Wallace had 4 points and 14 boards, Brand had 15 points and 5 boards, and Marion had 13 points and 4 boards.

On the Chinese team's side, Sun Hao has 26 points and 10 assists! Wang Zhizhi had 16 points and 6 rebounds, Yao Ming had 15 points, 12 rebounds and 5 blocks, and Hu Weidong had 11 points.

Carl's defensive strategy did limit Sun Hao's scoring to a certain extent, but Sun Hao's assists doubled!

Who said Sun Hao couldn't pass the ball? He's just a low ball possession with the Mavericks!

At the moment of the final whistle, the American fans at the scene still felt incredulous.

Dream team, just lost!

Cuban was extremely excited at this time.

The national team or something, it's not something he should think about.

But Sun Hao, this game became famous!

Give football rights, Sun Hao can also be the boss!

"We lost?"

Barkley's attention was on Sun Hao.

It wasn't until the game was over that he realized that it was a bit of a shame that the Dream Team had lost.

Jordan didn't speak, his face wasn't too good.

If you lose or not, don't you know how to watch it yourself?

This dream team was built by him in 1992.

Then, 10 years passed, and the dream was shattered.

If he played on his own, it would be impossible to give the Chinese team a lead.

He now loves and hates Sun Hao a little.

"We should do something."

Adam Mosaic has words in his mouth.

Stern couldn't help but give him a blank look.

The defeat of the U.S. team this time was not unexpected, it just came sooner or later.

And those NBA stars are unwilling to play for their country, and it's not that he doesn't give it, it's the stars' own decision.

The pattern of mosaics is still too small!

It made the Chinese team pick up a big bargain.

In the future, when people mention the fall of the dream team, they must mention the Chinese men's basketball team.

The first person to eat crabs will always be remembered.

However, because it is the Chinese team, this matter is not so bad.

Hao Sun, Ming Yao, China Market.

Take a long-term view.

The U.S. lost one game, but the NBA won the future.

As for worries about the influence of the NBA?

When those stars find out that the Dream Team keeps losing, they'll definitely change their minds.

Which of those stars doesn't like to be a savior?

The bigwigs in the stands had their own ideas.

There are only two reactions on the field, frustration, and revelry.

The U.S. players sat on the bench with indescribable frustration on their faces.

Even Carl and his coaching staff.

Everyone on this team was nailed to the pillar of shame forever at this moment.

Even their mood is worse than in history.

Because they lost to Asian teams.

Since the invention of basketball, Asia and Africa have always been the weakest place in basketball.

Popovich has already closed himself.

Lost to Sun Hao in the playoffs and lost again in the World Championships......

It's just that if he also opens his eyes, he will definitely not touch the dream team again.

Because after a few years in history, he once again refreshed the lower limit of the dream team.

And he's going to be the manager.

On the other side, the players of the Chinese team were partying.

They beat the American team.

They defeated the Dream Team!

A dream team that has won 58 consecutive victories since its formation and has not tasted a defeat!

At this moment, all of them were engraved on the glory roll of history!

Each and every one of them will be remembered by future fans.

Because they are the ones who have shattered the myth of the invincibility of the Dream Team!

That's it, no matter what happens in the rest of the game, it's enough.

And, it will definitely make them play better in the later games.

That kind of self-confidence building is beyond imagination.

Maybe it's not even just this World Championships.

The first team in history to beat the Dream Team was Argentina, who went on to win the silver medal at the World Championships.

Then there was the rapid rise of the Argentine golden generation men's basketball team, and in the 2004 Athens Olympics, they defeated the Dream Six team again!

History, unconsciously, has shifted away.

For the historic game, the post-match forum is naturally indispensable to the discussion of fans.

This side of the American forum.

"I'll just get some sleep, and the dream team will lose?"

"Yes, the Qing Dynasty is dead!"

"The dream team can't limit Sun at all, FIBA's Sun is incomprehensible, I think FIBA gives a low score, he should be in the same gear as Nowitzki."

"In the end, the talent of this American team is too poor, and when we send the strongest team to the Olympics, the championship will be ours again."

"Yes, this team is too weak inside and outside, as long as you give Iverson or Duncan, they can win all the way to the championship easily."

"I think it's okay to give Garnett and don't overestimate our opponent."

"And I think after this loss, the coaching staff will make targeted adjustments, and we won't lose again in the next games, and we will still win the championship."

"Agree, look at our first game against Germany, Nowitzki couldn't win the ball if he scored so many points, and this game was more about underestimation and carelessness."

……

Over there in the China Forum.

"Sun Hao, Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Battle...... Let's remember these 12 names, they are the heroes of world basketball! ”

"The FIBA rating shows that the U.S. team is much more talented than we are, and this game shows one thing, talent is no longer the only factor that affects the game."

"In fact, the U.S. team has always relied on talent to crush it, and other countries have always had better teamwork, and now other countries also have a few strong points, and the result of the game is different."

"I just went over the wall to see it, and the fans in the United States are still living in a dream!"

"Haha, I guess this dream team will continue to lose in the future, and there is a high probability that they won't win the championship, so they should wake up from their dreams at that time!"

"And after the dream team loses a game, other countries have a completely different mentality when they play them, why can't I be able to win others, I am no longer afraid of the dream team."

"I don't think the German team will necessarily lose another game, poor silver horn king."

"The next game, it's Sun Hao who will play the Silver Horn King, brother game!"

"It's good-looking."

……

The schedule of the World Championships is intensive, and the Chinese team has just arrived in the United States, and has not had time to digest the joy of victory.

The next day they played Germany again.

Germany have already lost to the United States and will have to win against China to finish in the top two of the group, and win as many as possible to ensure an advantage in the small score.

This game is even more intense than yesterday's.

Nowitzki scored all kinds of unsolvable scores, and the Chinese team did not have an inside pair.

Under FIBA rules, Nowitzki is still unsolved in the NBA.

And it has been a stalemate, and the Chinese team also has the old problem of lack of physical fitness in the end.

Except for Sun Hao and Yao Ming, the decline in the hit rate of others is obvious.

In the end, the Chinese team lost to the German team 86-93.

Nowitzki scored a game-high 33 points, worthy of the existence of the No. 1 FIBA rating.

After the group stage, China, the United States, and Germany have the same record, and they have entered a closed-loop situation where I win you, you win him, and he wins me.

In this case, the United States team ranked first in the group, the Chinese team ranked second in the group, and the German team was third in the group.

This result is not bad for the Chinese team, because the record of the first stage of the group stage will eventually lead to the second stage of the semi-finals.

In other words, they now have a chance to compete for the top spot in the group in the semi-finals!
