454. Have you ever opened your mouth?
Just when the Chinese team was mobilizing their enthusiasm, suddenly there was a uniform roar from the other side!
This voice seemed to suppress the cheers of more than 20,000 Chinese fans at the scene!
Turning his head, he saw that the New Zealand team was roaring in unison, patting all parts of their bodies with the roar, and their feet stepping on the floor with the roar.
Obviously, everyone is a separate dance step, but the rhythm is the same, and it looks a little bit like -
"Jumping God?"
Sun Ce watched the other party suddenly start to convulse, a little confused.
"No, it seems to be a Maori dance, is it called a Maori war dance or a haka? By the way, what do they have to do with Mori Kogoro? β
Just when Sun Ce was confused, most of the players of the Chinese team were confused, and most of the fans at the scene were confused, the New Zealand team became more and more energetic, and the few New Zealand fans on the sidelines were roaring with the uniform roar of the players of their national team.
The New Zealand players seemed to be roaring, slapping their bodies, and stomping their feet, and their belief that even if we were not as strong as you, we would fight to the end!
After more than a minute of dancing, the confidence of the New Zealand team players doubled!
In the face of this belief expressed by the New Zealand team, the Chinese team did not react...... Still the big brother Wang Zhizhi reacted quickly and began to ...... opposite Applaud!
The others also reacted and quickly applauded as a sign of respect, and the fans at the scene also applauded.
It seems to have been rewarded, the New Zealand players hugged each other with satisfaction, the referee saw that the New Zealand team finally finished jumping, and quickly signaled the substitutes of the New Zealand team to leave the field quickly, the start of the game was postponed, but it could not be stopped, the referee is also well-informed, this is the tradition of the New Zealand team, and it must come when facing an extremely unfavorable situation.
β¦β¦
Finally, at 6:02, the referee blew the whistle and threw the ball into the air, and the game began.
What does it mean to operate as fiercely as a tiger?
It's about the New Zealand team.
Bullying and bullying the Canadian team, the New Zealand team can do it, after all, except for CΓ΄te d'Ivoire, this World Championship really can't find a weaker existence than the Canadian team.
But in the face of the Chinese team, which was full of energy to win in the knockout round, the Chinese team led by 8 points 16-8 in the first quarter......
Although the Chinese team's defense was too hard, resulting in poor performance on the offensive end, at least it was prevented!
In the second quarter, the rotation lineup is still defense-oriented, no matter what, it is not easy for the opponent to score, even if the offensive efficiency on his side is poor, and the veterans of the Canadian team cannot be given a chance to play, which is the goal of the coaching staff of the Chinese team.
It doesn't matter if the scene is good or not, it's the win that matters.
At halftime, the Chinese team led New Zealand by 10 points 31-21!
After establishing a 10-point lead at halftime and exhausting the shooting touch of both sides, the Chinese team began to change, and when they came back in the second half, the Chinese team replaced the lineup of Sun Ce, Wang Shipeng, Sun Yue, Ding Jinhui, and Yi Jianlian, and began to run and bang!
Deng Huade, the head coach of the Chinese team, felt that the thief was excited, and he was able to run and bang in the World Series!
26-17 in a single quarter, after the third quarter, the Chinese team opened the score to 57-38 with one sentence, leading by 19 points!
Although the two veterans of the New Zealand team on the outside once scored four three-pointers in a row in the final quarter to narrow the gap to 12 points, it was nothing more.
In the end, relying on Sun Ce's 27 minutes of playing time to get 7 points, 11 boards and 9 assists, Yi Jianlian's 21 points and 9 boards, Yao Ming's 11 points, 7 boards and 5 blocks, Wang Shipeng's 8 points, Sun Yue's two three-pointers, the Chinese team defeated the New Zealand team 76-63 and advanced to the quarterfinals!
The whole scene exploded!
It's been 16 years! After three World Championships, the Chinese team once again advanced to the top 8 of the World Championships!
Moreover, this is the second time in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team that it has won the knockout round in the Olympic Games or the World Championships!
Won 5 games in a single World Series, and also broke the team history record of 4 games won in 1994!
Although the scene of this game was ugly, such as Sun Ce's 2 of 8 shots, Yao Ming concentrated on defense, and his physical strength was all used on the defensive end and the offensive end could not be taken care of, and there was only one three-pointer from Zhu Fangyu, two three-pointers from Wang Shipeng, and two three-pointers from Sun Yue......
But win!
Sun Ce, Guo Allen, and Ding Jinhui, the three players who represented the national team for the first time to play the real World Series are okay, those players who have represented the national team many times, won the knockout round for the first time in their basketball careers, and all the people who did not play in the fourth quarter stood on the sidelines, and they never sat down in the entire fourth quarter!
When the final whistle blew, Sun Ce, who threw the ball into the air, turned his head to look at the bench, as if he saw Wang Yao Shuangta sitting on the cold bench in the fourth quarter, his eyes were red......
However, the two immediately came up and high-fived their teammates, and Sun Ce didn't know if he was wrong.
But if you win, of course, you have to celebrate......
Really, it's in the top eight in the world! This time it's a real top eight in the world, not the kind of top eight like the Olympics where only 12 countries participate, and if you win one game, you might be in the top eight!
β¦β¦
In the post-game interview, the Chinese men's basketball team has never lacked attention, and everyone is used to being surrounded by reporters.
When Sun Ce was asked which opponent he would like to meet in the quarterfinals, he replied without hesitation: "Is it the opponent of the quarterfinals?" I certainly hope it's Russia, and I'll go back and pray for Russia that they can beat Spain tomorrow night. β
This answer made these sports reporters who are not very based in the United States a little confused, is it really good to say the idea of picking up soft persimmons and pinching them so directly?
According to the normal situation, shouldn't it be said that everyone has self-confidence?
Shouldn't you talk about the scene?
What if we do run into a Spanish team?
But it seems that no matter what, if you meet it, you will meet it, and if you don't meet it, you won't meet it, and it seems that it is right to expect the Spanish team to be upset by the Russian team......
finally squeezed next to Sun Ce and grabbed the opportunity to interview the current popular fried chicken in Chinese sports, and the reporters regretted it...... This guy is a topic buster!
But now it was too late to make substitutions, and after the game, while the players were celebrating, reporters poured into the stadium and surrounded all the players of the Chinese team and even the coaches on the sidelines.
Sun Ce, Yao Ming, and Yi Jianlian have the most reporters around them, but the most numerous of them are Sun Ce.
Because he basically locked the assist king of this World Championships, far exceeding this World Championships, and greatly improving the average assist record of the assist king!
Sun Ce played 5 games and got a total of 35 assists!
7 assists per game!
In the past, the assist kings of the World Championships averaged 4 to 5 assists per game, and a few assists at 5.5 points were the sky, such as Argentine point guard Sanchez averaged 5.8 assists per game in 2006, and was the only player who averaged more than 5 assists per game in the 2006 World Championships.
The Chinese team's all-time World Championship average assists per game record is held by Liu Wei, who once ranked fourth with an average of 4.5 assists per game in the 2006 World Championships.
There are two players who average more than 5 assists per game in this World Championships, one is the 33-year-old veteran of the Argentine team, Pablo Prigioni, who averages 6.4 assists per game, which can rank fourth in the history of the World Championships.
The all-time assist average in the World Championships is 7.1, which was set in 1963 when the Brazilian team led by Brazilian basketball legend Amare Passos to win the first two consecutive World Championships in the history of the World Championship.
And Sun Ce ...... That's 0.1 short of the all-time World Championship record of 7.1 assists per game! It is currently the second largest in history!
As long as Sun Ce can get 8 assists in the next game, he can set a new record for average assists per game in the World Championships!
Of course, the reporters gathered more around him, but before he asked a few questions, Sun Ce threw out an answer to end the topic.
Although what Sun Ce said was very reasonable, what they wanted was not a reason, but a topic that could continue to be asked!
This disagreement will collapse the topic!
β¦β¦
After winning the first round of the knockout round, the Chinese team was given at least three days of rest.
On the day of the 6th, the Chinese men's basketball team was purely resting, and there was no need to prepare for any games, and they devoted themselves to resting, and they could even travel to the surrounding cities of Ankara accompanied by officials.
However, although there is such an arrangement, there is no one who goes out to travel, at most they gather in a teammate's dormitory to play cards, Guo Allen and Ding Jinhui, who are a little more foreign, went to buy PS3 to play Grand Theft Auto 4 in the dormitory, and Wang Zhizhi, an old cadre style, is dangling in the school with a thermos cup.
Sun Ce's side, after getting up in the morning and running in the morning, he went back to the dormitory to sleep, and in the afternoon, he was dragged out to go shopping by his mother who found the dormitory and her mother's newly recognized goddaughter.
Inexplicably has a younger sister, and she is still a talker, Sun Ce is also speechless, but she has gone abroad, although I don't know if those so-called Turkish specialties have not been demolished, I also bought some.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Sun Ce, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Guo Shiqiang, Deng Huade and others came to Ankara City Stadium to watch the second game of the night, the Spanish team against the Russian team.
Russia, who only beat Puerto Rico and Ivory Coast in the group stage and finished fourth in Group C to reach the finals, looked as inexplicable as the bloodied Olympic Games just after winning the European Championship two years ago.
But, tonight, the Russian team suddenly hardened!
The Spanish team was like being fascinated by a ghost, with offensive mistakes and leaky defense, and was scored 14 points by Mozgov in the third quarter, while the Spanish team only scored 6 points in the third quarter, and the Spanish team, which was still 7 points ahead in the first half, fell behind by 1 point after the third quarter!
The fourth quarter was even more amazing, and the Spanish team only scored 5 points in the fourth quarter!
With Mozgov's performance of 28 points and 11 boards in a single game, the Russian team defeated Spain 67-58 and advanced to the quarterfinals!
Sun Ce was stunned for a moment in this game, is the Russian team's defense so strong?
Sun Ce had the impression that the Spanish team would be upset in the finals of this World Championships, and there was a performance of 0 points in a single quarter, but it was upset by Russia...... He felt hell when he saw that Andrey Vorontesvich, who had been beaten by CSKA Moscow like Fisher, actually beat like Kirilenko.
He was thinking about whether to incarnate an elderly Joe or directly use an S-level stage outbreak to kill Gasol Jr. when he played Spain, and as a result, the Spanish team stopped in the round of 16!
This is the same as the original time and space when the United States team regarded Spain and Argentina as their biggest rivals, and these two teams were eliminated in the quarterfinals.
Sun Ce felt an indescribable sense of loss.
Just when Sun Ce walked out of the stadium with his teammates in a complicated mood and was about to go back to school, Yao Ming next to him suddenly asked Sun Ce, "Little Overlord, has your mouth ever opened?" β
