If Shan wins against the U.S. team, it will really be a victory.

Even if that just satisfies Stella Qin's bet, so what? Yang Yiming tried to debate with himself, but whether it was Stella's reminder planted a thought in his heart, inducing him to strive for a single quarter, especially the fourth quarter. But he didn't have time to discern the difference.

There is only one thing he can figure out in the seconds between the timeout and the moment he walks to the sidelines: if he really wins against the American Dream Team, even if it is only in a single quarter, it will already be a victory for the Chinese team and his own.

Now that he has set his goal, Yang Yiming has an idea in his heart.

The Chinese team took a timeout on the sidelines, and Yang Yiming listened to Coach Du Feng making personnel arrangements in the second half of the third quarter: "(Guo) Allen, you replace Zhao Jiwei, Abudu Salamu for Li Gen, Zhou Qi for Wang Zhelin, Xiao Ding and Yiming both stay on the court first, and then change the dead ball in the next round..."

"Coach Du Feng, I want to apply for the game first!" Yang Yiming's speech interrupted Coach Du Feng's arrangement. It didn't matter if he didn't speak, and when he spoke, all the other teammates turned to stare at him. Although Yang Yiming has made a name for himself in the NBA, it is the first time to represent the national team, and it can be seen that everyone has an unbelievable look of surprise in their eyes: What can Yang Yiming, who is here for the first time, give advice on the head coach's arrangement? !

"A Ming?" Coach Du Feng looked cold, put the tactical board behind him, leaned forward half of his body and asked, "You want to apply to get off the field, what is the reason?" ”

"Report to Coach Du Feng, I want to conserve my strength first and play the fourth quarter. I think I can beat them in the fourth quarter," Yang Yiming gave a thumbs up, standing far away against the U.S. bench a few meters away from the court, and said with a serious face, "I know them well." I think we have a chance. ”

The players looked back at Coach Du Feng again.

His expression was still grim, his brows were tightly locked, and after listening to these words, his body leaned back, and his lips were sealed for several seconds before he issued an order: "Then try it!" Zhou Qi stays on the field, and you will go down! ”

With the rest of the third quarter tied 12-18 between China and the United States, the Dream Team once again presented their "civilian lineup," Turner, Oladipo, Lowry, Booker, and Conley. This lineup with four small belts once again pulled the score away, 56-80. With a score margin of more than 20, has the fourth quarter become garbage time without suspense?

In Yang Yiming's opinion, no! He's ready to make his debut!

The U.S. retained a four-and-four lineup in the fourth quarter, only swapping Victor Oladipo for Bradley Beal. The Chinese team was led by Yang Yiming, who paired him with Yi Jianlian on the inside line, and Zhao Rui, Li Gen and Zhai Xiaochuan on the outside.

According to Coach Du Feng's arrangement, Yi Jianlian made his first appearance in this confrontation game because of his injury, and his main task on the court was to find the feeling of the game, familiarize himself with his teammates who will cooperate in the future, and at the same time focus on defense and assistance to help Yang Yiming score points.

Such an arrangement is undoubtedly a great affirmation of Yang Yiming, who joined the Chinese men's basketball team for the first time. Next, it's up to him to perform!

56 to 80.

The U.S. team had the ball, and Yi Jianlian first blocked Myles Turner's layup. Yang Yiming turned to the front court, and after receiving the ball, he raised his hand to shoot three points. The three-point shot hollowed into the net, and the Chinese team took a 3-0 lead in a single quarter!

But Bradley Beale immediately returned the favor with color. He stepped back and hit a three-pointer to tie the game.

The Chinese team and the United States team missed consecutive shots, and it was the turn of the Chinese men's basketball team again. Yi Jianlian attracted a small bag from Turner and Lowry on the inside, and Yang Yiming missed the free throw line, and he received a 2-point shot. 5-3 back in the lead.

Conley of the USA was a consistent scorer and it was up to him to stabilize the situation in the first half. Conley leaned on Li Gen and chiseled two steps back without chissing, but still relied on his left hand advantage to turn over and jump shot. It's a pity that the ball hit the front of the basket and hit the rebound and bounced out.

Zhao Rui organized the offense, and he already had a chance to face the basket directly with Yi Jianlian's blocking, but between pauses, Yang Yiming had a better chance of sneaking under the basket. Zhao Rui tossed lightly, Yang Yiming jumped up in the crowd, and with a tap of his fingers, he dialed the ball in. 7 to 3.

The Dream Team relied on Lowry's strong layup to get back 2 points, and because Yang Yiming had hit three shots in a row when defending, the Americans also strengthened their defense! Miles Turner and Yang Yiming one-on-one! Myles Turner is a new generation of NBA defensive tough guys, with braided hair and flicking it up when he frantically defends to fill in positions, which resembles an umbrella cover in ancient China. His passion for interceptions and blocks even outweighs his passion for offensive scoring, so much so that he is often referred to by critics as too blue-collar and not as well-known among fans as Oladipo "Panther" Oladipo, who also came from the Indiana Pacers and shone last season.

But Popovich must have a reason to be able to select him for the talent-laden American Dream Team and the 15-man squad!

It's Turner's crazy enthusiasm for defense! He shook his head, constantly moving from side to side, trying to bypass Yang Yiming, who was playing with his back, and his long black and sweaty arms kept seeking an angle, pulling out the basketball from his armpit or waist. While his hands were on the verge of fouling, Turner kept using his body to seek confrontation, crashing into Yang Yiming's back in an attempt to make the latter lose his rhythm or center of gravity on the dribble.

Turner's ploy looked like it was on the verge of success.

Yang Yiming was knocked back by Turner, who looked slimmer but full of muscular strength than him, and took a step back in the opposite direction, and the ball was unstable, so he could only hold it with both hands first. It seems that Yang Yiming, who can't dribble for the second time, has lost the initiative to attack!

But he actually took advantage of the momentum of falling out, like he had planned to make a step-back jumper, twisted his body and lifted the ball above his head, ready to shoot!

This forced shot probably surprised Myles Turner greatly, but he still reacted quickly and flew out. With beads of sweat flying in his palms and braided hair, he flew towards Yang Yiming's face looking up at the basket!

The palms of the hands have been sealed to the face.

But Yang Yiming still made a move!

The ball outlines an arc, an arc that these NBA players on the court seem familiar and unfamiliar with. Déjà vu is because this arc seems to have somehow dominated the arena where they played. And it seems strange, because this arc should not appear in the yellow-skinned Asian in front of him!

At the end of the arc is a delicate net that stands still.

Ball brush over!

It's just an ordinary one of thousands of hollow nets, but it not only shocked Myles Turner, who was defending, but also all the players on the court.

Only Yang Yiming, as if he had known the result of this goal, ran back to his half with a smile on his face and fell into a defensive position.

"Support Skills: When close defense and shooting vision are interfered with, the shooting percentage is not affected. Also known as the 'look at the head' skill. ”

That's right, this is the new skill that Yang Yiming acquired in the summer special training.

And the template for the skill reference – and the feeling of those NBA players is not wrong – is the German chariot that has crushed all the defensive stalwarts in the league, Dirk Nowitzki!

Yang Yiming seems to have become the strongest crossbow in the Chinese men's basketball team!

The ultimate weapon that shoots everything!
