Chapter 916: The Basketball Emperor
At this moment, all the fans couldn't help but stand up, and the orange ball spun rapidly in the air, bringing out a beautiful arc like a rainbow, and flew towards the hoop at a gallop.
"Don't go in!" Tens of millions of Chinese fans prayed at the same time.
Then, at that moment, the basketball was pinpointed into the hoop!
"Roar!" There was a roar, and the bench of the American team was full of voices!
The American fans who have been sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai are excited, and they are not afraid of the World Championships all the way, even if they are chased by Brazil all the way in the group stage, because they are confident that they can win.
But today, they don't have this confidence anymore, and the strength shown by Chamberlain is too terrifying, just like when the German armored forces met the armed fighter division of the United States Army Aviation Corps in the 21st century in World War II, it was a scene of being completely crushed!
Curry looked at Chamberlain with some regret, he ran from behind, patted Chamberlain on the back, and comforted: "It's okay, Z, you are the MVP, in fact, you are the winner today!" ”
Durant looked at Chamberlain from afar, with an expression of joy or sadness on his face, and Lefou, Rose and others pushed him excitedly, but he still looked at Chamberlain.
The corners of Chamberlain's mouth were raised, as if smiling, he looked at Durant deeply, and then gritted his teeth in his heart and said: Do you think you can win? As I said, your career, in my hands, is a failure!
Nelson Jr. used up the last timeout, in fact, there are very few games in the World Championships that need to be solved by a stunner, and most of them are won by a score difference of more than 10 points.
Therefore, many head coaches do not have the habit of keeping a timeout until the end, but fortunately, Nelson Jr. is from the NBA, and it is too common for NBA teams to play a stunner, so coaches will leave a timeout until the end no matter how difficult the regular time is.
This kind of timeout, it may not work, if the score gap is large, it is waste. However, if the score is tightly bitten, this timeout is a lifesaver.
Little Nelson's good habits saved his life at this moment.
The biggest problem for the Chinese team right now is time, they have too much time, a full 22 seconds.
If it's the NBA, the more time left for the last offense, the better, but now, too much time is pressure on the Chinese team, because in the face of the Dream Team's tight defense, the more time there is, the greater the possibility of mistakes!
Alternatively, the Dream Team could disrupt the game by fouling them as soon as they start, sending their opponents to the free-throw line, and then the ball goes to them.
This is a very good way, once the Chinese team misses the free throw, it means that the American team wins, even if two free throws and two hits, it is just a draw, and the initiative is still in their hands.
Old K was even tempted, he pointed at the tactical board with a thick signing pen, and just when he was about to say that he would foul at the beginning, Old Nelson, who had not spoken much, shook his head and said in a low voice: "They will hit the first free throw, and then Z will grab the rebound that bounced out of the second free throw!" ”
Hearing this, the dream team shuddered, and a trace of fear appeared in the eyes of Durant, Rose and others.
Yes, it's entirely possible, they can't go for a foul, even if it's a free throw, but he can still grab a key rebound!
The NBA has issued a rule for Chamberlain's self-penalty and self-grabbing rebounds, but FIBA does not have this rule, which means that Chamberlain can jump up after making a free throw, and then glide all the way to win the rebound!
DON'T DOUBT IT, CHAMBERLAIN DEFINITELY HAD THIS ABILITY, OTHERWISE HE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN CALLED SUPER-Z!
To this day, Chamberlain still holds a terrifying record in the NBA, and a record of key rebounds that have not been lost!
At the end of the timeout, the two sides started fighting, the Dream Team sent Chandler and Oden to defend on the inside, and then arranged Guy, Iguodala and Westbrook on the outside, in fact, West defended better, but Old K didn't dare to bet, who knows what this little madman West can do? At the last moment, what did he do with Chamberlain?
There is no doubt that West is really capable of such shameless things.
Chamberlain chewed gum and stood in the arena, and Auden and Guy wrapped him up like a sandwich.
Yao Ming served, Chandler blocked in front of him, but because Chamberlain attracted the bag, Yao Ming's serve was much simpler, Yi Jianlian covered Zhu Fangyu, and the latter went up to get the ball.
Then, Zhu Fangyu controlled the ball and retreated, Iguodala defended it, he tentatively stretched out his hand, but Zhu Fangyu immediately protected the ball sideways, Iguodala didn't dare to make any big moves, he knew that the man opposite was a marksman, once he was sent to the free throw line, there would be a scene that old Nelson had warned.
Chamberlain came up to pick up, Chandler and Oden switched defenses, and Guy flanked and still kept the bag on Chamberlain.
Chamberlain was just outside the three-point line, Yao Ming cooperated with Yi Jianlian to constantly enter the restricted area to change positions, and Nelson Jr. roared off the court, directing the players to enter the inside line to grab positions, it seemed that they were going to play a more conservative two-point shot, and then drag the game into overtime.
Chamberlain skillfully controlled the ball, Guy slid forward, reached out to steal, Chamberlain suddenly dribbled under the crotch and then changed direction, and rushed in with a step.
Guy was thrown off, and Chandler was shocked and hurried to block it.
As a result, Chamberlain reduced his speed and turned around and walked outside the three-point line, and when he walked out of the three-point line, the time also entered the last ten seconds countdown, and Chamberlain turned around again, threw the ball to Yao Ming under the basket.
Oden went up from behind, and Iguodala also guarded it recently, and the two were sandwiched, and Yao Ming couldn't stand steadily.
Fortunately, Yao Ming took advantage of it, and at the last moment, no one dared to grab the ball casually, because it would definitely be a foul to do so!
At the last minute, the referees raised the scale of blowing to the highest level.
Yao Ming turned around and consumed four seconds, then passed the ball to Yi Jianlian, and he ran out of the penalty area.
Yi Jianlian got the ball, and the dream team breathed a sigh of relief, they didn't believe that the lore ball would come from Yi Jianlian - either Yao Ming or Chamberlain!
There is no other possibility!
Sure enough, Yi Jianlian got the ball, and Chamberlain ran to the inside, so that Yao Ming withdrew, leaving a vacant space on the inside.
Yi Jianlian dribbled out, Chamberlain ran halfway, turned around and ran back, Guy had expected it, and secretly screamed in his heart to know that your kid was not honest, so he blocked Chamberlain's retreat from behind.
As soon as he moved like this, Chamberlain twisted his waist again, accelerated horizontally from the middle, and ran outside the three-point line on the right wing, while Zhu Fangyu switched to his position and stopped Chandler at once.
"Change the guard!" Chandler roared.
"Change the guard!" Old K roared nervously.
"Change the guard!" All the American fans screamed in horror.
Iguodala's defense had nothing to say, and he stuck to it in one awe-inspiring step.
Chamberlain, who was running out, quickly stretched out his hand, Yi Jianlian passed the ball comfortably into his hand, and after receiving the ball, Chamberlain stopped all of a sudden, shaking his arm to break through, and Iguodala subconsciously stopped and raised his arm to defend.
Chamberlain stopped and then retreated, while Iguodala slowed down by half a point, and just like that, Chamberlain dropped out of the three-point line at the last minute!
Guy finally rushed out, he went straight to the three-point line, and Iguodala's defense was also in place, so that the two of them blocked Chamberlain's way from the left and right wings!
However, Chamberlain did not need to move forward at this time, standing outside the three-point line, he ignored the opponent in front of him who pounced like a hungry wolf, his face was flat, his eyes were clear, and his tired muscles relaxed at this moment, and then his feet gently knocked on the ground, and his long and strong body rose from the ground.
In the air, Chamberlain's waist bent back, his upper body bent back gently, and his right hand held the ball, his arm was naturally bent, his left hand protected the ball, his wrist shook slightly, and the basketball flew out like a cannonball, whirling with the wind!
Guy and Iguodala did their best to raise their arms, but when the basketball flew over their heads, it happened to be flying out with their fingertips.
"Squeak !!" A sharp beep suddenly sounded, and the bright red number on the timer finally returned to zero at this moment!
The score is frozen, 101-99! The Chinese team is two points behind!
But no one's mood was in a state of zero, whether it was fans or players, their eyes widened nervously at this moment, staring at the basketball flying in the air.
The basketball flies, reaches its highest point, and begins to fall.
In the midst of all the attention, the basketball finally fell on the hoop with a muffled 'bang'.
The American fans suddenly screamed wildly: "Oh yes! ”
Chinese fans were depressed, and on the commentary seat, Zhang Weiping muttered in disappointment: "Z is a center after all, he is not a shooter......
But unexpectedly, the matter was not over, the jumping basketball fell again under the gravitational attraction of the earth, and then, it passed through the middle of the hoop, rubbed against the net, and made a crisp sound of 'boom'!
The scarlet score began to beat, 101-102, and the Chinese team scored behind!
The scene was silent for a long time, only the fans and players gasped for breath, after Chamberlain threw a three-point shot, he even felt like never before, he slipped his feet and sat directly on the floor after he landed, looking at the basketball that had fallen into the hoop at this time and laughing.
The players of the Chinese team opened their mouths wide, and then they suddenly roared, Yao Ming grabbed Liu Wei beside him, as if using the other party as a cane, lying on his body and laughing wildly, laughing and yelling: "Haha, haha, ******, in!" Lore! Damn, what a go! How could it be, what a in! ”
There was even more noise on the bench, and little Nelson took off his suit and threw it on the ground, then he quickly tore off his tie, shook the tie like a whip and shouted: "Gold medal!" We are the champions! We are the champions! We are the champions! ”
The fans at the scene were crazy, the American fans wanted to cry without tears, and the Chinese fans were in tears: win! Their team, won!
On the commentary seat, Zhang Weiping raised the microphone with a trembling hand and shouted hoarsely: "At the last moment, Chamberlain, a super player of the Chinese team and the FIBA god of war, hit a three-point kill!" A big man of seven feet and two inches, he killed the strongest team in the world from beyond the three-point line! ”
Sun Yue, Guo Allen and others rushed onto the field, tore Chamberlain and pulled him up, and then everyone worked together to hold him up all of a sudden, and Wang Zhizhi and other veterans also leaned next to him like children to support Chamberlain's legs or waist and laughed again and again.
And they won the championship!
At the World Championships in Japan four years ago, the Chinese team only stopped eighth, who would have thought that four years later, they would directly win the gold medal!
Although the influence of the World Championships is not as good as that of the Olympic Games, this gold medal is simply a monument for China, which has never achieved anything in men's ball!
The U.S. men's basketball team was all in a low mood, and even West kept shaking his head, standing on the sidelines with his waist crossed, his eyes revealing a heavy look of regret.
And the most regrettable thing is Durant!
In the end, Durant still couldn't beat Chamberlain head-on, even though he had so many good teammates and his opponent Chamberlain had a bunch of CBAs, but he still lost.
The players of the Chinese team carried Chamberlain around the court, countless reporters followed, the flash was like lightning, and all the cameras were aimed at Chamberlain, and now, he is the emperor on the field.
The one-of-a-kind king of basketball!
