Chapter 500: Gold Medal Battle, Just One Time
Both meetings in the semi-finals were upsets.
The Chinese team's defeat of the Serbian team can be called the essence of this year's Olympic men's basketball, Chu Xuan's magic of throwing in 5 three-pointers at the end of the quarter was written as a special book, and after this night, everyone understands that the dark horse of the Chinese team is going to be black.
Chu Xuan's three-point shot is considered to be a goal worth a thousand gold, and one goal locked the Olympic silver medal for the Chinese team, which can be said to be the pinnacle moment in the entire history of Chinese basketball.
From an amateur player with no professional experience to the core of the backcourt of a national team, Chu Xuan only took 7 games, which makes people feel how terrifying his talent is. This is as magical as when he went from an ordinary person with no professional coaching experience to a super coach with three consecutive championships, and how similar the trajectory is.
This is capricious, and it is legendary, or this is the aura of God, a person has received too much favor from heaven to create such a legendary scene.
Why did the two semi-finals break out in the upsets? This brings us to another match between Spain and the United States, which was already considered the first and second encounter. Because from the perspective of the whole world basketball world, Spain is the most promising team to challenge the United States team in history, and this year is no exception. Golden boy Rubio, Gasol and Gasol, naturalized defensive interior Ibaka, etc., Spain has gathered too much talent this year, and it will undoubtedly have to do something.
The suffocating Spain met the loose American team, coupled with the perfect and extraordinary performance of a group of Spanish players, so the upset broke out, and Spain defeated the invincible American team 96-91, creating another unpopular miracle in the history of men's basketball at the World Olympic Games.
No one expected that this would be the result, and the Olympic finals would become a contest between the Chinese team and Spain. The U.S. team can only compete for the bronze medal, which is undoubtedly another shame in the history of the dream team, and all the members of the dream team who came to participate in the Olympics are also disgraced.
The madness made by Spain and China detonated this year's sports news, everything began to revolve around such two teams, the Chinese team is obviously not Spain's opponent, after all, the overall strength of the two teams is too different, in the prediction of the victory, 90% of people believe that Spain will win this year's Olympic gold medal, and China is unprecedented to win the silver medal, which is already the best result.
No one thinks China can win the gold medal, after all, the Chinese team lacks the world's top stars this year. Chu Xuan also thinks so, he feels that it is great luck that the Chinese team can come to this point this year, and if he wants to compete with Spain for the gold medal, unless Yao Ming in 08 appears in this team, then it may be very likely to win the gold.
But the idea will not become a reality after all, the Chinese team does not have Yao Ming, only Yi Jianlian, Zhou Qi and Wang Zhelin This level of the inside line, it is indeed a little unrealistic to use them to fight against Gasol, not to mention that there is still Ibaka, an inside giant, on the bench.
It seems that under such a general trend, this year's Olympic Games are about to end in the cold, and there will not be much to watch, and what continues to look forward to the game is nothing more than to see what the Chinese team can do with Spain, and what kind of performance Chu Xuan can contribute.
……
The Dream Team was furious, and the bronze medal was already a shame for them, so the angry American team completely sprinkled all kinds of negative emotions on Serbia, the opponent in the bronze medal match.
The stars of the dream team who went all out to transform into beasts made people see the terrifying strength of the American team, 100:55, the Serbian men's basketball team, which only lost by 5 points in the group stage, made people feel the difference in strength. Obviously, the U.S. team is too underestimated and invincible, which ultimately led to this year's tragedy. However, something has happened, so obviously it can't be changed, and the U.S. men's basketball team can only return home with the gold medal and wait for the pressure of public opinion in the United States.
Kobe called Chu Xuan helplessly, and his mood was not particularly good, but at his age, he was more able to see this kind of ending. It's just that Kobe Bryant regretted that he did not continue to end his perfect career, and this Olympics will undoubtedly become the biggest regret at the end of Kobe's career.
Many people suddenly discovered that the reason why Kobe Bryant was perfect was because he met Chu Xuan at the right time, and the reason why the Olympics was not perfect was also because he met Chu Xuan. The U.S. team didn't have Chu Xuan and finally lost Jingzhou to third place, while the Chinese team magically entered the Olympic men's basketball final because of Chu Xuan, which highlights Chu Xuan's greatness.
……
At this level, the Chinese team has burst with self-confidence.
Although the outside world unanimously believes that they can't beat Spain, such public opinion has no impact on them at all, which is the biggest improvement of the Chinese team. With confidence, the Chinese team calmly prepared for the finals, and they all wanted to try to touch the pinnacle of honor.
Yes, at this time, no one will be willing to do only the second.
Even if they are not opponents, the Chinese team now dares to fight hard, and they will end this Olympic journey without regrets.
As an opponent, Spain was also very cautious, they did not dare to underestimate the Chinese team of Serbia, so a white-hot game kicked off in the eyes of the world. Throughout the game, Chu Xuan did not retain any skills, his breakthrough, physical fitness, shooting, passing, defense, everything was unreservedly expressed, he had to fight, fight until there was no ability left. From the beginning of the game, Chu Xuan tried his best to play, and this crazy energy also completely infected his teammates, and the Chinese team broke out......
Chu Xuan has completely changed as a person, without the calmness and coldness he had as the head coach, at this time he is more like a young man in his 20s, full of energy and high spirits.
This night, Chu Xuan is perfect, God favors him and the Chinese team, Rubio was blown up by him, the performance of Gasol and Ibaka can only be used as a green leaf to set off his greatness, 37 points, 7 assists, 7 rebounds and 7 steals in a single game, this night, Chu Xuan stood at the top of the world, China was also boiling, and they were proud of this young man.
The Chinese team has won the gold!
This is the most unlikely thing!
However, when he got the golden medal, the light pierced into his eyes, and the sky was full of shouts, at that moment, Chu Xuan couldn't help but be stunned.
"It's like living in a dream, but the coldness of the tentacles is so real, I feel like I'm satisfied. Perhaps, in the future, there will not be another such moment. ”
Yes, great luck, perfect performance, excellent team performance, everything was carried out in the right way, which created the miracle of the Chinese team this year.
Obviously, just as Chu Xuan said, maybe there will be no more moments like this for a long, long time in the future. However, everyone is satisfied, winning the gold, once is enough!
