Haddadi was covered by the basket neck, the Chinese team fans at the scene booed the sky, everyone was laughing, even Haddadi himself felt embarrassed, lowered his head, and laughed helplessly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Sun Xiaotian led the entire Chinese team on the defensive end, and several key defenses made everyone more confident. The active defense also drove the team's offense, and the Chinese team took advantage of the Iranian team's repeated failures to widen the score gap again.
21 minutes!!
This is the biggest advantage of the Chinese team's lead since this game, and Giannakis is very satisfied with the performance of the Chinese team in the third quarter.
"Hurry up, hurry up and get it done!!"
Now to say something unpleasant, Giannakis leads this Chinese team, and the most certain tactic at present, which can also be called his trump card tactic, is to hand over the ball to Sun Xiaotian.
In the third quarter, Sun Xiaotian was dominant and destructive on both the offensive and defensive ends. On the offensive end, he disrupted the opponent's concentration, and on the defensive end, he wore down the opponent's will, making the opponent completely confused.
At the end of the third quarter, the Chinese team led the opponent by 21 points at 75:54.
The 21-point margin gave Yannaski plenty of buffer space to deal with the game in the fourth quarter.
Sun Xiaotian, who played a full quarter in the third quarter, gasped for breath on the bench. He had such an impression before: To be the ace of the Chinese team, you must be durable. Without this trait, it would be impossible to satisfy the fans and reassure your teammates.
"In the fourth quarter, the opponent is bound to come back, you just have to get through the first four minutes, and those four minutes may mean the championship ......," Giannakis said to the bench before the start of the fourth quarter.
"Actually, it doesn't have to be so troublesome, I can still play the whole game in the fourth quarter......" Everyone was paying attention to Giannakis' speech, when suddenly a weak voice came from the bench.
I saw Sun Xiaotian holding a towel on his head, although his voice was very small, but the shock was big enough, and the confidence revealed in it.
"Can you do it? After all, there's still a whole quarter to go, you need to rest, and once you don't have enough rest, the opponent will be on the field, deliberately trying to drain your energy, which will disrupt our rotation, and once you have a physical problem, we will be in trouble! Yannakis questioned this.
"Don't worry, I know my body best, and if I want to use my lack of physical strength to make a fuss, they are still tender, besides, I won't give them that opportunity......" Sun Xiaotian was very determined.
Getting such a promise from Sun Xiaotian is something that Yannakis couldn't be happier. He knows in his heart that as long as he passes the Iranian hurdle, the champion of this Asian Championship will definitely not be left behind.
Giannakis's worries are not unreasonable, and the lack of physical fitness is Sun Xiaotian's biggest shortcoming. This summer, although his physical trainer has developed a detailed training plan for his flaw, it is not possible to show the desired effect overnight.
……
Back on the field, as soon as they saw that Sun Xiaotian was still on the field, the Iranian team had a bottom in their hearts, nothing else, this was an opportunity, that is, to consume Sun Xiaotian to the fullest.
However, seeing that what Yanakis was most worried about was slowly happening, the Chinese team was ahead of the Iranian team by so many points, which was quite beneficial to the Chinese team. Many people also felt that the Chinese team was able to maintain a good lead until the end of this game.
However, the stinky problem of the Chinese players underestimating the enemy still happened. Chen Jianghua dribbled too much, Wang Shipeng made improper shooting choices, and the rebounds in the front court were lost again and again. All of these phenomena point to the fact that the mentality of the players has changed with so much lead.
At this time, the Iranian team's pure bench players Sulab Nejad and Jamshidi turned out to be the leaders of the team's chasing points temporarily, and they led the entire Iranian team, as if embarking on an indomitable journey, everyone was working hard, everyone was doing their best.
As frontline players, the two of them hit 4 three-pointers in a row, and beat the Chinese team 12:0 for a while. Giannakis was completely impatient, and he couldn't figure out that even some people on the bench were the core of the team in the CBA league, but in such an international competition, everyone's attitude was completely different, and the gap was so big. Not to mention the professional attitude, even the most basic tactical literacy has been lost.
Three minutes ago, Giannakis was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut. However, the opponent's two unknown substitutes directly stopped the Chinese team.
And in these three minutes, Sun Xiaotian didn't make a single shot, not that he didn't want to shoot, but his teammates wanted to perform every time they held the ball, and they had already treated the fourth quarter as garbage time.
This attitude of some players of the Chinese team has achieved the frenzy of chasing the wind of the Iranian team at the beginning of the fourth quarter.
After playing 12:0, the Iranian team narrowed the score difference to single digits. And this climax also played the momentum of the Iranian team, and every Iranian player on the bench threw a towel wildly, stimulating the hearts of the players on the field of the Chinese team.
Sulabnejad and Jamshidi, two players who only scored 4 points per game in this Asian Championships, have become the saviors of the Iranian team.
"Give me the ball in the final quarter and I'll save the win, and I'll do what I say." When many people heard this sentence, their first reaction was that Sun Xiaotian was forced to get a full score, but between the lines there was a message, Sun Xiaotian seemed to be a little angry, he was unwilling to learn from Yao Ming to throw a towel and make the Chinese team look ugly in front of the media. But he did cast doubt on the professionalism of some of the players in the Chinese squad.
Giannakis re-emphasized the issue of ball dominance, that is, Sun Xiaotian to dominate.
Back on the field, even if there are a hundred unhappy, some players who have ideas will relent, and they don't want to be told by the media afterwards.

Regaining control of the ball, Surab Nejad, who was in his prime, made a defiant gesture in the face of Sun Xiaotian.
"Another one to die!!"
Sun Xiaotian bent down and suddenly exerted force, followed by two Iverson-style cross-steps to the other side, and then stopped and dunked the ball, holding the ball and standing outside the three-point line, looking at Surab Nejad, Surab Nejad's feet seemed to be tied to a dead button, one staggered, and he took two steps back and slipped directly to the ground.
"Woo~" There were bursts of exclamations at the scene!
Sun Xiaotian calmly shot, and the ball went into the net.
And Sun Xiaotian, who turned around, lost his domineering roar, and was replaced by a weird smile!! (To be continued.) )
