7 to 90.
In the Sino-US men's basketball match, after Yang Yiming scored 15 points in the fourth quarter and took a temporary lead of 17-10 in a single quarter, the total score was also slightly closer.
There were three and a half minutes left at the end of the game.
This wave of 15 points in a single quarter hit a new round of excitement among fans in the Shenzhen Universiade stadium.
It seems that whether they can win the game or not, and what kind of performance the Chinese men's basketball players can have, is no longer important. How crazy Yang Yiming's solo performance will be, and how far he can chase the score in the fourth quarter, has become the focus of all the fans.
When Yang Yiming stood on the free throw line and executed a three-point shot, the calls for MVP came and went. Of course, even if he misses this point, the Chinese men's basketball team is still behind by a large margin, which is completely different from the superstars in the American professional basketball team who often score 30 or 40 points and lead the team to win. The MVP call dedicated to Yang Yiming is more like a kind of self-entertainment and fanning the flames of fans: since Yang Yiming's state is so good, maybe he can score more than 15 points in a single quarter?
In a game that has lost suspense, wouldn't it be worth at least the ticket price if you can feast your eyes on it, or the home team's own "returnee" players?
"Go down." The cheering voice was also given to Blake Griffin, who was humiliated and annoyed by Yang Yiming. With three and a half minutes left in the game, Griffin threw off his towel when he was replaced by Andre Drummond, put on a warm-up suit, and sat on the bench, looking like he wasn't going to play again for the rest of the game.
The director of the scene was a close-eyed person, and when he saw Griffin change into a warm-up suit, he first cut a close-up of his facial expression: his face was full of anger, his neck was red all the way to his cheeks, and the forehead lines squeezed out by his wide-eyed eyes were almost full of dissatisfaction and resentment.
After giving a close-up of his face, the director broadcast the highlights of Griffin's confrontation on the big screen. Unexpectedly, it backfired, but attracted boos from the audience.
Griffin leaned back, his arms propped up on the back of the alternate seat adjacent to his left and right. His head hung back, his eyes closed, and he simply didn't look at the situation on the field. Anyway, the winner is decided!
Whether it is the warm-up game of the Chinese and American men's basketball team, or the personal struggle between him and Yang Yiming, the winner has been divided today.
Wait until October, when the NBA season of 18-19 resumes, and then get this account back!
Blake Griffin's eyes were closed, and all the boos and other boos in his ears seemed to have become irrelevant to him.

But on the field, Yang Yiming just got a penalty in the penalty. 17-10, with more than three minutes left in the quarter, he was determined to win against the Dream Team.
Bradley Beal made a bloody way from the three-point line, facing Zhou Qi, who had just replaced Yi Jianlian, under the basket, and scored the ball after a physical confrontation. The referee blew for an additional penalty at the same time. Bilgar scored a free throw to make it 17-1, and the offense took less than eight seconds to play.
Switched to the Chinese team. Yang Yiming glanced at Guo Allen, who understood: Yang Yiming played the ball with his back, but it was just a bait, Guo Allen made a feint to drop the ball, and then lowered his head and rushed past Lowry. Lowry chased back, but was lifted by Yang Yiming just right, just in time to block and stop. Guo Allen picked up the basket with a low hand, and these two points were stable! 19 to 1.
Over there, Lowry couldn't swallow the anger of being played by the Chinese team so simply, and found "Zhuang Shen" Drummond to play the block and dismantle cooperation. Zhuang Shen was really good, one person's cover squeezed out Zhou Qi and Li Gen, and Kyle Lowry shot in the free throw line in the open position. The combination was just as simple and crude, but extremely effective, with the only difference being that it was a bit worse and Lowry's shot slid out of the basket.
The fourth quarter was still 19-1, with only 2 minutes and 8 seconds left.
Seeing the dawn of a single-quarter win, and at the same time, if you grasp the opportunity to attack in the next few times, there is a chance to further shrink the total score. The Chinese team handed the ball to Yang Yiming, and he controlled the offensive tempo. Yang Yiming is not in a hurry to dribble, he has a height advantage, lifting the ball, the four outside of the United States team can not interfere with the ball in his hand, and can only be close to Klay Thompson, who is the closest height and the strongest defensive ability, to resist his chest closely, hindering him from making easy moves.
With 6 seconds left in the offensive time, Yang Yiming saw that the time was ripe and dribbled the first step to his right hand.
Thompson is really experienced, he can be called the first person in the league D player today, Yang Yiming has not relied on his body and speed to gain any advantage in this step, Thompson has relied on the prediction of the strongman to move one step in advance, standing on the latter's forward line.
If you want to break through, I'm afraid you will cause an offensive foul!
But Yang Yiming was not worried, he mastered the strength of the breakthrough just right, and his body was close to Thompson, forcing him to make no moves, and not to cause offensive fouls. Then, when Thompson was at a loss for what to do, he shot dryly.
A super long two points.
His shooting action looked very reluctant, but Thompson did not interfere with the jump after all, and Yang Yiming, who was volleying, seemed to shoot in an empty position, and the two-point shot was there!
21 to 1.
The battle-hardened American Dream Team also read China's tactical intent to delay the game in order to maintain the fourth-quarter victory. Although the whole game is won or lost, as a dream team that is already arrogant, since you want to win, you have to take it all in!
Time is their worst enemy right now.
Zhuang Shen quickly served the baseline ball, and the ball was passed directly by Lowry to Thompson in the front court, Thompson didn't think about it, and turned around and threw a super long three-pointer directly. Entered! The U.S. team is also known for color.
China's response has been slow. At least that's what the Dream Team members imagined. Yang Yiming controlled the ball and almost played the role of LeBron James of the Chinese team. It took him eight seconds to push through the half, and in response, the U.S. team's defense was slow to settle down. But just when all the players in the blue star-striped vests on the field were thinking about defending for 24 seconds and winning the ball in this round, Yang Yiming made an unexpected shot!
It's almost the same position as Klay Thompson's shot just now, the same ultra-long three-pointer!
But because the five members of the U.S. team were thinking about dealing with the offense that was launched after more than 10 seconds, there was no one to defend Yang Yiming, who was still 2 meters away from the three-point line. His three-pointer was too easy!
24 to 16, the gap is back to 8 points! But there were less than 2 minutes left in the game.
Coach Popovich was unfazed on the sidelines, and he left the decision to the players on the field. The Dream Team launched a fast attack, but it was too fast to reach the moment - Lowry forced his way into the restricted area, but his layup was blocked in the face of the Chinese team's two elders, the Rockets' Chinese twin towers Zhou Qi and Yang Yiming. The Chinese team instead scored three points by Zhou Qibiao.
27 to 16.
The U.S. team finally struck a fatal blow, Zhuang Shen Drummond turned his back and threw it, a few inches shorter to the basket, and the defensive rebound was collected by the Chinese team. Guo Allen counterattacked and burst into the penalty area, broke through the obstruction and gave the ball to Yang Yiming on the line, and then the latter found Ding Yanyuhang in the bottom corner, and Xiao Ding invested two points.
29 to 16. The suspense of the fourth quarter was completely clear after this ball.
The coaches of both sides called out the last timeout, each replaced the substitute, and finally the substitute posted two points respectively, and the Chinese team won the United States team 1-17 in the single quarter by 14 points, but lost too many points before, 87-97, or 10 points lost the game.
Relying on Yang Yiming's single-quarter scoring performance, the Chinese men's basketball team not only won the first quarter in this matchup with disparity in strength, but also did not lose much in the end, saving the face of the home game.
Get out of the way!
