Chapter 108: The pinnacle duel of Asian centers, Zhou Qi fought Haddadi
"Toot ......"
At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, the Chinese men's basketball team sent a lineup of Dong Hanlin, Zhao Rui, Fang Shuo, Ding Yanyuhang, and Zhao Tailong.
Li Yang, Zhou Qi and Wang Zhelin and other starting five all sat on the court to rest, and they played almost a full quarter in the first quarter, which is not a common thing in the Chinese men's basketball system, and the previous games have not been like this, just because today's game is too special.
Now the Chinese men's basketball team is leading by 10 points, and it is not behind the other party in morale, so Li Nan replaced all the starters in the first quarter and replaced them with a rotation lineup.
However, the situation is changing rapidly.
As soon as the second quarter came up, the Iranian team chased the score fiercely.
"Huh!"
Jacques Charlie, the wing of the Iranian team, broke out first, and after holding back for a whole quarter, he suddenly threw a cold arrow on the outside, faced Zhao Rui's defense, and directly pulled out a three-point shot and went into the net empty.
Then the veteran Bahrami also began to exert his power, he first attracted the defense after the breakthrough shot, assisted Mesam to hit a mid-range shot, and then steal Zhao Rui, quickly launched a fast attack, 2 to 1 in the front court, easily played a fast attack, and then it was a super long three-point hit, a person crazy cut 5 points, plus an assist, a steal.
Iran scored seven points in the opening quarter of the second quarter, and immediately narrowed the gap to 3 points, at which point the score became 30:27.
This wave instantly made the fans in the audience excited, and they began to cheer loudly and scream loudly, the game was really full of twists and turns, suspense, and very exciting.
Just three minutes into the second quarter, Li Nan had to call a timeout, and the Chinese team's ten-point lead had been exhausted, so he could only replace Li Yang, Zhou Qi and Wang Zhelin in advance.
At this time, the five-man group on the field of the Chinese team was Zhou Qi, Wang Zhelin, Abdul Salamu, Li Yang, and Liu Zhixuan.
Iran: Haddadi, Mesam, Bahrami, Jamsidi, Jacques Charli.
The Chinese team attacked.
Li Yang advanced with the ball, and the Iranian fans began to shout in unison to defend.
Li Yang advanced to the front, and Abdul Salamu covered for Li Yang, at this time, he could no longer follow the rules and wait for the cover to form, just when Jacques Charli was still thinking about how to bypass the cover.
Li Yang changed direction with a cross-step and accelerated from the right side, and at this time, only Haddadi was left to defend near the basket!
Seeing that Li Yang was about to enter the penalty area, Haddadi decisively gave up Zhou Qi to help defend him, Li Yang took advantage of the situation and passed the ball to the ground, and Zhou Qi jumped directly after receiving the ball to prepare to attack the basket!
But Haddadi, who was windy at his feet, straddled and blocked in front of Zhou Qi, and a quick and ruthless cut the ball directly on Zhou Qi's leg and popped up the bottom line.
Haddadi did not provoke and speak harshly this time, but bared his teeth in celebration at the bottom line camera.
Zhou Qi: "I'm sorry, it's my pot!" ”
Zhou Qi patted Li Yang on his chest and said, Zhou Qi was forced twice in the first quarter, and his muscles were still a little sore, so he was always half a step slow at the beginning of the second quarter.
Li Yang replied with a very leaderly demeanor: "It's okay brother, take it easy!" As long as I'm here, nothing will be a problem. ”
Wang Zhelin also deliberately ran over and patted Zhou Qi's back, old teammates who have been fighting side by side for many years, and they can read each other's minds with just a simple eye contact.
The defense of the Chinese team, everyone will think about what tactics the Iranian team will adopt in the next round.
It must be everyone who pulled away and let Haddadi beat Zhou Qi strongly, the Chinese team did not use the bag clamp from the beginning, and this round is no exception, no one will come over to help Zhou Qi assist in defense.
Haddadi sank to the right low position, he leaned back against Zhou Qi and reached out for the ball, and Jacques Charli handed a ground-hitting pass to Haddadi's most comfortable receiving position.
To tell the truth, guarding against Haddadi in this position, Zhou Qi is somewhat scared, he is at a disadvantage in height and weight, in contrast, he is like a thin bamboo pole, while Haddadi is strong and strong, and the five-second violation of the rules on his back feels like it is formulated for this kind of monster.
Zhou Qi could only lower his center of gravity and try his best to stand more firmly under his feet, and his whole body was almost lying on Haddadi's back, but before Zhou Qi's fear could spread, his lower abdomen was like being beaten hard by a giant hammer!
Uncontrollable retreat, Zhou Qi continued to push forward, the second slam, Zhou Qi's internal organs seemed to be about to shift, fortunately there was no third blow, because Zhou Qi had retreated to the basket.
From the moment Haddadi saw Zhou Qi, he decided that this tall and thin Chinese could not pose any threat to himself.
Haddadi jumped with his back to the basket, and he was about to dunk in the air!
Zhou Qi, who was hit and was about to vomit, still subconsciously jumped forward, he only had one idea when he jumped, that is, no matter what, he had to stop the other party from playing 2+1!
Zhou Qi, who was hit and couldn't stand steadily, only jumped as high as a matchbox, but he finally took down the cover but used his usual strength, Zhou Qi's right hand hit Haddadi's forearm hard!
The referee blew the whistle and Haddadi, who hung on the basket, couldn't dunk the ball in the end.
Zhou Qi shook his head, a little dissatisfied with his state, and Haddadi was not annoyed, but kept raising his hands to mobilize the atmosphere of the fans!
Haddadi hit two free throws, and the Iranian team closed the score to only one point!
Zhou Qi served on the bottom line, Li Yang dribbled and advanced, and Wang Zhelin asked for the ball under the basket, it seems that the players of the Chinese team are already a little anxious.
Facing Mesam, whose height is not inferior to his own arm span but is stronger, his dream steps are never out of the control range of the opponent's long arms!
In desperation, Wang Zhelin could only pass the ball again, and Liu Zhixuan, who received the ball at the three-point line in the bottom corner, was directly forced to be in a hurry by the opponent, but fortunately Zhou Qi ran to the high position to ask for the ball, otherwise Liu Zhixuan might make a mistake!
Zhou Qi received a pass at the free throw line and tried to step on the spot! But the sophisticated Haddadi was not moved at all!
Zhou Qi glanced at Li Yang, vaguely conveyed the battle intention, Li Yang understood, and immediately ran over, Zhou Qi turned around on the spot and pushed Bahrami hard, and then handed the ball to Li Yang.
At the moment of handing over the ball, Zhou Qi turned around and sprinted to the basket after empty-handed, and he just passed through the gap between Bahrami and Mesam through the basket, instantly attracting the pursuit of these two people, at this time, Li Yang, who was unmarked, jumped easily, or that picturesque shooting posture!
"Huh!"
Li Yang scored two points and hit steadily, which was the first sports battle score hit by Li Yang after he came on the court!
Zhou Qi also got an assist because of this!
No matter how critical the situation is, as long as it comes to the critical moment, Li Yang will show his true colors as a killer, and he didn't stand up to take over the game just now, just to let Zhou Qi build up confidence and face the No. 1 center in Asia!
The Iranian fans who were already frying the pot were also doused with the restlessness in their hearts by Li Yang's cold-blooded throw, and the scene became quiet!
After throwing, the two brothers Li Yang and Zhou Qi slapped hard!
"It doesn't matter if you can't prevent it, as long as I'm here, we can fight back!" Li Yang said loudly to Zhou Qi at the top of his voice.
Zhou Qi: ", Lao Tzu is a man who can conquer even a flight attendant, today I really don't believe in evil, he is thirty-three years old, it's time to give up the throne of Asia's No. 1 center, the emperor takes turns, come to my house today, it's my turn to take the position!" I'm sure I'll be able to stop him in a moment! ”
Zhou Qi frowned and shouted back at Li Yang.
But on the basketball court, not whoever has the loudest voice is powerful, and Zhou Qi was once again arched to the basket by Haddadi and caused a foul.
As soon as he came on the court, he was beaten twice by Haddadi, which made Zhou Qi look a little frustrated, and his teammates came over to comfort him, and Zhou Qi also said that he had no problem.
Haddadi looks very rough on the surface, but in fact, his skills are very delicate, especially the footsteps and hooks under the basket are even more difficult to defend, this rugged-looking Iranian center is like a giant point guard.
Haddadi's free throws at critical moments were even more unambiguous, with two free throws and two hits, and the Iranian team finally overtook by one point.
At this time, the Iranian team, which switched from offense to defense, suddenly changed formation, and the five people on the field began to press from the backcourt at the same time, Zhou Qi almost violated the five-second serve, but fortunately, Li Yang ran out of a space after two counterruns to receive Zhou Qi's pass.
Li Yang wanted to go straight to the basket with a dragon, but Jacques Charli, who was like a mad dog, clung to him tightly and didn't give him any chance to start!
After coming to the front court, Li Yang decisively handed over the ball to Liu Zhixuan, and he ran to the right along the free throw line, while Zhou Qi ran from the low post to the high position to cover the ball holder, of course, this is an illusion that Haddadi saw.
Zhou Qi and Li Yang met at the free throw line, Zhou Qi suddenly half-turned around and stood still, Jacques Charley only had Li Yang in his eyes, he was not in a hurry to dodge and collided with Zhou Qi directly, Li Yang suddenly turned around and strode towards the basket, Liu Zhixuan threw his small hand towards the basket, and took it away!
In order to pursue safety, Liu Zhixuan passed the ball a little high, Li Yang could not change the height of the ball, so he could only jump with all his strength, and finally touched the basketball on the white frame above the basket, due to the speed of the ball, Li Yang could not fully control the basketball at all!
Li Yang could only forcibly adjust his posture in the air with the strength of his waist and abdomen against the sky, but it was this short adjustment that made Haddadi behind him chase after him and jump to block!
Asia's No. 1 center pounced viciously, and Li Yang's mood was inevitably affected in a slightest, and his fingertips couldn't help but increase his strength, and the basketball hit the inside edge of the basket and bounced out heavily!!
In fact, Li Yang is only the first wave of air raids, and if one wave does not enter, another wave will come! Zhou Qi attacked for the second time and took off again from behind!
Haddadi really couldn't jump, he could only push in front of him, and Zhou Qi immediately screamed exaggeratedly, in order to ensure that every referee present could hear it!
But no matter how miserable Zhou Qi's voice was, his fingers and wrists did not shake at all, and with a slight click, the basketball entered the frame steadily!
2+1! Zhou Qi made a basket and added a free throw!
After the goal, Zhou Qi looked up to the sky and roared, and finally let out a bad breath, Li Yang pushed Zhou Qi hard from in front of him!
Li Yang: "Brother, the first place in today's top five balls is yours!" Just do that, we will definitely win the game, and the position of the number one center forward in Asia is also yours! ”
Zhou Qi: "Well, come on, Ollie give!! ”
At this time, Haddadi was panting under the basket with his hands on his knees, and although he could continue to hold on on to the court, he could no longer maintain his best condition.
Zhou Qi walked to the free throw line, and there was applause for a while, and Zhou Qi was cheeky enough to accept the ......
He took a deep breath, slapped the ball, adjusted his rhythm, and raised the ball over his head with a slight knee bend to attract the shot!
"Huh!"
Basketball hollow into the net! 2+1 is stable!
With Zhou Qi's 2+1, the Chinese team once again widened the difference to 6 points!
At the end of the second quarter, both sides scored and made mistakes, and with the Chinese team's last attack Li Yang broke through the ultra-long three-point iron, the Chinese team ended the first half with a 45-41 lead of 4 points.
The intensity of the confrontation throughout the first half was very intense, the situation was full of twists and turns, and the climax was repeated, all in all, in addition to the anxiety, the anxiety was still anxious in the end!!
