Very.

The margin is back in double digits again.

"Damn."

Tang Qian listened to Jonas's words and said.

"Tang Qian, what should we do next?" Xu Ziyang and Ma Wu asked towards Tang Qian in the forbidden area.

"The breakthrough of the American team has become crazy, it seems that they want me to be sent off as soon as possible!" Tang Qian silently recorded the number of fouls he had committed and three fouls. Although the time has reached the middle of the fourth quarter, there is still a possibility of being sent off. Because FIBA's competition implements the "five offenses graduate" system.

Are there only two foul chances left?

Tang Qian thought in his heart, and said to Xu Ziyang and Ma Wu: "Shrink the defense, the outside basket of the American team is not as accurate as that of European countries." ”

"Well, that's all there is to it." Xu Ziyang and Ma Wu nodded.

Both of them also know the importance of Tang Qian to the Chinese team now, if it weren't for him, to put it exaggeratedly, maybe they would be completely spoiled by the other party in a few minutes, ending the suspense of the game.

Fortunately, there is no three-second defense under FIBA rules, so the collective use of shrink defense can indeed curb the strong momentum of the American team.

But soon, everyone found out that they still underestimated the American team.

Because even if the Chinese team adopts the method of shrinking the inner line, the American team can still rush into the inner line again and again, posing a threat to Tang Qian.

Beep beep beep ~~~

"I'm me, I'm foul!" As soon as Ma Wu saw the referee blowing the whistle, he immediately took the initiative to raise his hand and signal.

"It's so dangerous, fortunately the referee counted the foul on me this time, otherwise it would have been troublesome." Ma Wu stood in the three-second zone and said to Tang Qian.

It's really troublesome.

Tang Qian saw it.

Team USA is about to get on the rise.

At this juncture, if the U.S. team succeeds and plays a small climax for the Chinese team, then maybe the game will end early.

Absolutely have to contain each other!

Tang Qian said from the bottom of his heart.

"Brush, brush."

The U.S. team hit both free throws, and the score of both sides stretched to 12 points.

"I'll mention going online later, I'll do a pick-and-roll for you, and you'll shoot a three-pointer when you get the chance." Tang Qian said to Xu Ziyang as he ran.

"Three points?" Xu Ziyang was slightly stunned and asked, "There is still time now, is it too early to shoot three points?" ”

"Early? It's not early. Tang Qian shook his head and replied: "The American team is going to score desperately and widen the point difference, if we don't act again, as long as there are one or two waves, the game will be taken away." ”

"Is it that serious?" Xu Ziyang looked at Tang Qiandao.

"I'm afraid it's more than that." Tang Qian said in a low voice.

The Chinese team's ball possession, Tang Qian continues to be entangled by Nonu and Johansen, to be honest, it feels really bad to be squeezed around by two muscles, but now Tang Qian can't take care of so much.

Be sure to close the score gap!

After Xu Ziyang dribbled and approached the three-point line of the American team, Tang Qian suddenly stepped on his right foot, as if he was about to force himself into the inside line, and both Nonu and Johansen subconsciously moved back.

Well, now is the time!

Seeing the timing of Nonu and Johansen's retreat, Tang Qian kicked his left foot sharply, and unexpectedly ran towards the outside line.

What is he doing here? A center to the outside? Can you still shoot a three-pointer?

Immediately, Tang Qian gave the answer.

"Let's go."

Hearing Tang Qian's voice, Xu Ziyang did not hesitate, accelerated, and began to break through sideways.

Idiot, with your dribbling speed, you want to break through my Jonas too? It's so funny!

Jonas, the point guard of the U.S. team who defended Xu Ziyang, said in his heart.

And then.

With a "bang", Jonas couldn't laugh anymore because he interrupted his pace of following Xu Ziyang.

Because he hit the wall.

“fuc.k！ Pick-and-roll !! ”

Jonas has been playing basketball for so many years, so he naturally knows what it means.

Since his attention was on Xu Ziyang, who was breaking through, he was negligent about Tang Qian, who suddenly killed.

He didn't notice.

Tang Qian relied on his body to block Jonas to the death, and at the same time shouted: "Don't hesitate, shoot quickly!" ”

Xu Ziyang made a three-point shot at the top arc of the American team.

Brush~~~

Basketball hollow bag.

The gap between the two teams has narrowed to nine points.

But when they turned their heads, the U.S. team took advantage of the fast attack they were good at and returned the blow to the Chinese team.

The score difference jumped to eleven points again.

"Damn, why is this small forward so accurate?" Guo Xiaopeng, who was defending Domingo, said hatefully.

"It's okay, keep playing threes." Tang Qian's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a deep voice.

"Keep playing threes? What if I miss? Guo Xiaopeng said.

His worries are not unreasonable, even if it is an accurate three-point shooter, the general shooting rate cannot exceed fifty percent, not to mention that the Chinese players on the court now are not particularly accurate at all. If you can't shoot, and then you are counterattacked by the opponent, you will be five points out inside and out.

"It's okay if you miss it." Tang Qian said.

"No, it's okay?" Guo Xiaopeng was surprised: "Why? ”

"Because I'll do it." Tang Qian's voice said clearly.

Wipe! It's a pick-and-roll again???

Seeing Tang Qian blocking him again, Jonas couldn't help but say loudly: "Nonu, Johansen, what are you two still doing in a daze!" It's not enough to make up for it??? ”

Nonu and Johansen both pounced, the speed is quite fast, I have to say that the inside line produced in the United States, the speed and bounce are very good, at least in the eyes of the Chinese team, the speed of this kind of defense is not much slower than the ordinary forward line.

Xu Ziyang made another three-point shot.

While!

The iron is struck.

Because of the timely relationship between Nonu and Johansen, Xu Ziyang's shot was somewhat affected this time.

Okay, the ball didn't go in, this time you're done!

Jonas rejoiced.

But in an instant, he changed his mood.

An athlete wearing the uniform of the Chinese team, at some point, had already jumped on the inside of the American team, and picked off the basketball that Xu Ziyang failed to throw with both hands.

"Oops! Quick, go and make up for it! Jonas shouted.

"Chinese boy, don't you want to make a move!" Domingo, who came over to make up for it, said loudly.

Tang Qian bent his knees slightly, and after Domingo completely rushed into the inner line, he flicked his backhand and passed the orange basketball out.

The target position is Domingo's original defender, Guo Xiaopeng.

"Shoot." Tang Qian saw Guo Xiaopeng catch the ball and immediately said.

Guo Xiaopeng didn't hesitate, a jumper in the bottom corner, a three-point shot!

Brush!

Three points into the net!

And eight points!

However, the U.S. team is not easy to bully, seeing Guo Xiaopeng's three-point shot, Domingo, who is also a small forward, immediately retaliated with a tooth for a tooth and scored a goal in the former's head.

Very!

"It's okay, let's keep shooting threes." Tang Qian glanced at the score card.

This time in defense, Nonu and Johansen both learned to be obedient, and the two of them stuck Tang Qian to death, not giving him a chance to mention the line at all.

Twenty-four seconds, and soon arrived.

Seeing that Tang Qian had no chance to come out to block the demolition, Xu Ziyang could only force his hand through Jonas.

While.

The three-pointer hit the iron again, relentlessly deflected.

"Come here!" Tang Qian's eyes were firmly fixed on the basketball, and with a sudden force, he squeezed between Nonu and Johansen, and then jumped quickly to grab the rebound.

"Cast again!"

Tang Qian threw the basketball in his hand back to Xu Ziyang, and after Xu Ziyang received the ball, he immediately jumped up and threw a three-point shot again.

Brush!

Ball in!

The score was once again narrowed down to seven points.

"Defend!" Tang Qian took the lead and ran back to the backcourt.

Bang~

Domingo's shots began to miss, and Guo Xiaopeng, who had been beaten a few times in a row, finally got his breath back.

The defensive rebound, undoubtedly, was directly picked up by Tang Qian, and then passed to point guard Xu Ziyang, and the Chinese team attacked again.

"Defend yourself! The Chinese team has begun to focus on three-point shooting! Cheer up! The head coach of the U.S. team shouted from the sidelines.

"Nonu, Johansen, stare at the hell! Don't let him grab the rebound! Jonas said to the two interior players.

But there are some things that are easier said than done.

Nonu and Johansen also wanted to completely seal Tang Qian, but it was extremely difficult to really do it.

Fuc.k！ Is this Chinese center taking banned drugs? Why is the power so strong? Neither himself nor Johansen can eat him?

Syllable.

Guo Xiaopeng missed three points, but unfortunately the rebound was snatched by Tang Qian again, and then without saying a word, he threw it to the latter to continue projecting.

Brush~

It's in again!

Guo Xiaopeng did not live up to Tang Qian's offensive rebound, and the three-point shot went into the net.

The difference between the two teams is only four points.

The U.S. team's shooting guard Yun Snow stepped up and went through the motions to return a three-pointer from the Chinese team.

Seventh.

"Hug, I'm sorry, I couldn't stop him." Defender Yang Lingyuan said with some shame.

"It's okay, he throws one, and you give him back." Tang Qian said without wavering.

The Chinese team attacked the round.

Xu Ziyang made a three-point shot, "dang", the strength was a little heavy, and the basketball smashed out of the basket.

Syllable.

The offensive rebound was caught by Tang Qian again, and he didn't stop when he got the ball, and directly stuffed it to Yang Lingyuan at a 45-degree angle on the right side.

"Shoot." Tang Qiandao.

"Okay."

Yang Lingyuan shot the basketball, but unfortunately, like Xu Ziyang, the strength was a little heavier, and the basketball bounced out of the basket.

Syllable.

Tang Qian grabbed the offensive rebound again, and then handed it to Yang Lingyuan outside the three-point line, and said, "Shoot." ”

Yang Lingyuan made a three-point shot and missed the basket again.

Syllable.

It was Tang Qian, who forcibly pressed Nonu and Johansen and picked up offensive rebounds.

"Shoot."

It is still handed over to Yang Lingyuan.

"Yankee, don't you want to shoot again!" The person defending Yang Lingyuan was Yun Snow of the American team, who was thrown several goals by the opponent in one round, Yun Snow was a little embarrassed, and when he saw Tang Qian pass the ball to Yang Lingyuan again, he immediately pounced on Yang Lingyuan.

Yang Lingyuan was a little hesitant, after all, he had already shot two goals in a row, if he didn't score this goal again......

"Shoot."

Just when Yang Lingyuan was a little hesitant, a clear voice came again:

"Shoot."

It was a simple two words, but it seemed to have magic power, driving Yang Lingyuan outside the three-point line to jump again and shoot three points.

Brush~~~

Syllable!

Beep beep beep ~~~

"Score and add a free throw!"

The referee's voice rang out.

"Good !!"

Yang Lingyuan, who played three plus one, shouted excitedly.

"Lingbang! Well done!! Ma Wu and Guo Xiaopeng ran over and pushed him.

"Tang Qian, thank you......" Yang Lingyuan did not forget Tang Qiandao.

"Shoot well, shoot good free throws, and we're just three points away from making free throws." Tang Qian looked at the scoreboard on the sidelines again.

"Well, don't worry, I'll definitely get in." Yang Lingyuan nodded and replied.

Brush~~~

Yang Lingyuan made a free throw, and the score difference between the Chinese team and the United States team was only three points.

The U.S. team called a timeout.

was chased by the Chinese team to only three points, even if it was the arrogant American team, it couldn't help but call a timeout.

"Nono! Johnson! Are you two sleepwalking??? How many offensive rebounds were just robbed by that Chinese, do you want me to count them one by one for you two??? Shit !! No, it's worse than shit!! As soon as the head coach of the U.S. team came, he said loudly.

As the head coach, of course, he can see why the Chinese team can chase up when they are more than 30 points behind, all of which seems to be caused by the frequent projection and scoring of the Chinese team's outside players, but in fact, the reason for the Chinese team's catching up is not their outside line, not their three-point shot, or even the three plus one just now. The reason why the Chinese team was able to chase three points, there is nothing else, it is the reason for the substitute center Tang.

It's almost incredible.

But the head coach of the American team really felt that the big boy with a beautiful face, even if he sent five people, he might not be able to stop him.

Although he was reprimanding Nonu and Johansen just now, from the perspective of his head coach, there were not too many problems with the performance of Nonu and Johansen in the past few minutes. Because whether it's the defensive position or the rebounding position, neither of them has much to find fault with. So, at the end of the day, there's only one possibility.

That's that Chinese kid...... The strength is just too strong.

It's so powerful that Nonu and Johansen can't suppress it.

But...... Is this possible?

A substitute center for the Chinese team can completely blow up the starting interior line of the American team, this kind of thing...... Is it really possible?

"Yes, I'm sorry coach, that Chinese, the strength is too great, Johnson and I can't suppress him at all." Nonu lowered his head and said.

"That Chinese center, is it really that strong?" The head coach of the U.S. team couldn't help but ask.

"It's a real coach." Johansen also spoke: "You don't know the strength of me and Nonu, the strength of the two of us is already the strongest in the whole team, but in front of that Chinese, like a child, is not his opponent at all." ”

The head coach of the U.S. team nodded, he knew that Johansen was not lying, and in terms of bench press alone, both of them could weigh up to 100 kilograms. Don't underestimate this number, after all, they are all seventeen-year-old children, and being able to lift this weight is quite remarkable in the eyes of the head coach of the American team. You must know that even in the NBA, the rookie bench press is only 84 kilograms, and even so, many big-name players are "allergic" to this weight in the early days of entering the league. ”

For example, the NBA's former famous outside star Tracy Brown. McGrady, when he first entered the league, couldn't push a weight of 185 pounds, but later relied on training to rise to a strong 120 kilograms. Another example is the NBA's new planet star Kevin. Durant, in his physical test when he first entered the NBA, failed to lift a standard rookie barbell of 185 pounds (84 kilograms). Regarding this matter, the former also specially comforted the latter, saying that he was similar when he first entered the NBA, and he was allergic to that damn barbell, so that Durant didn't have to pay too much attention to it.

These talented players in the NBA were not as strong as Nonu and Johansen when they first entered the NBA, which shows that the strength of the latter two can already be regarded as outstanding at the age of seventeen. And Chinese...... Haven't they always been the "weaklings" of strength and confrontation? What's going on with this young center? If a person wants to compete with Nonu and Johansen, he needs to bench press at least 100 kilograms, can he push 120 kilograms?

"Coach, I think that kid must have used medicine, otherwise a Chinese, where did he get such terrible strength?" Johansen said suddenly.

"After we end the game, we must apply for a urine test, and we can't easily let go of that Chinese stinky boy!"

"Well, you have a bit of a point, I will go to the organizing committee to make this suggestion after the game is over." The head coach of the U.S. team nodded quite seriously.

Regarding the American team, Tang Qian naturally didn't know, but even if he knew, he didn't care.

"Everyone did a good job, only three points away, and if we keep up the good work, we may be able to overthrow the U17 hegemon of the U17 national youth team." Li Qiuping looked at the ratio, and said with a little excitement.

Defeating the U.S. team, even if it's just the U.S. national youth team, such a result is enough for Li Qiuping to be proud of. You must know that the last Chinese national youth team defeated the American team by 40 points, if he coaches this time, he can pull the American team down, even if it is only in the group stage, it can also add a lot of glory to Li Qiuping's coaching resume.

He looked at Tang Qian, although he had already seen that this handsome boy was not good, but this kind of "goodness" was still a little beyond Li Qiuping's expectations.

As long as he can defeat the American team, even if the knockout rounds are a mess in the future, he can "hold his head high" and return home with a hard heart.

So when the Chinese national youth team chased the score difference to three points, Li Qiuping, who has always been relatively calm and calm, also couldn't control his inner emotions.

But at this moment, someone interjected inappropriately: "Coach Li, you see that the score has caught up, shouldn't our main force also be ......?"

Liu Bo suddenly spoke.

Want to pick peaches again? Li Qiuping glanced at Liu Bo and said coldly: "You have all rested for so long, and your bodies are all cold, let's continue to let the substitutes play later." ”

"Coach Li, we are the main players, now that the score is biting, it is the time for us to play, we will definitely work hard!" Liu Bo pretended to be stupid and still said.

"Work hard?" Li Qiuping saw that he gave the steps, but the other party ignored him, and suddenly his words became cold, and said: "Liu Bo, how are you playing in this U17 World Youth Championships, do you still need me to say it directly?" Last time the score was approaching, as soon as you came on the field, you were instantly defeated by the Australian team, could it be that you forgot about it so quickly after a few days ago? ”

"But Coach Li ......"

"Where are there so many??? Liu Bo, are you the head coach of the Chinese team, or am I Li Qiuping??? I said that I will come on as a substitute later, if you are not convinced, you can leave with your baggage, and you don't have to participate in the next schedule. ”

"Forget it, Coach Li, you dissipate your anger, Liu Bo is also outspoken, he wants to contribute to the national team is so anxious, Coach Li, you are a lot, don't be like him." Zhao Jiwei ran out to play the round at this time.

Li Qiuping didn't know that this Liu Bo didn't represent himself, but for the sake of the later games, he couldn't make the relationship too stiff, so when he saw Zhao Jiwei coming out to play a round, he immediately nodded and said: "Okay, I also understand your feelings, but in the face of the American team, I have my own arrangements, you don't need to be too anxious." ”

Li Qiuping's slightly meaningful words made Zhao Jiwei's ears burn, he said a few words with a smile, and then took Liu Bo back to the bench.

"Xiao Tang, Xiao Xu, how to fight in the back, I don't have anything to guide anymore, I only have one sentence."

"Please let it go."

"A new page in Chinese basketball may be written by you!"

"Let's play!"

PS: There are two sayings for Maddie's bench press, one is that you can only push it up once or twice, and the other is that you can't push it once, and Xiaozi uses the latter here. There is also something about Chamberlain's average blocks per game, Xiao Zi said that the NBA was early in George. There was interference in the era of Old Man McCann, and for a physical monster like Chamberlain, the referee must have kept an eye on it more closely (refer to Yao Ming, after all, he is tall and has long arms, which is too conspicuous!). ）
