Chapter 154: The Battle for Qualification, VS Serbia

In the third round of the group stage, the Chinese men's basketball team defeated Venezuela with a group score of 1:2 and successfully retained the possibility of qualifying.

On the other hand, the other two matches in the third round also came out.

As Wang Feng remembers, both the United States and France narrowly defeated their respective opponents by small scores.

"It's stable!"

Gong Luming's face couldn't hide his excitement.

"Now, we are the same as Serbia, they are 1:2, their opponent in the next round is the United States team, the probability of winning is extremely small, according to this plan, even if we lose to Australia in the fourth round, we can also face Serbia in the last round and compete for the right to qualify from the group!"

"It's just ......," the leader of the men's basketball team said with some concern. Are you sure you're going to have to hide your clumsy game against Australia? This plan is still a bit risky, in case we can't defeat Serbia......"

Hearing this, Gong Luming shook his head.

"It makes no difference if we win Australia or not, if we win Australia and lose to Serbia in the last round, then the record is 2:3, and with the same points, we still can't qualify from the group with an absolute disadvantage in terms of goal difference."

"Therefore, beating Serbia and leading the group points is the key to qualifying! Wang Feng had to continue to hide his strength in the match against Australia and bet everything on the last match! ”

……

On August 11, the fourth round of the group stage of Group A.

The match starts at 1:15 a.m. Capital Time.

But even so, there are still many people who stay up late to watch this live game.

The victory against Venezuela has rekindled the hope of many fans, as long as they can win one more game, they will have a good chance of qualifying from the group!

However, the Chinese fans, who stayed up all night, were disappointed again.

68:93。

The Chinese men's basketball team lost to the Australian men's basketball team by 25 points.

The UAE scored 20 points and 9 rebounds, and Guo Allen had 11 points and 5 assists, but Wang Feng's performance pulled his hips again, and he only scored 5 points in 15 minutes of play.

As a result, the results of the Huaguo men's basketball team in the group stage became 1:3.

What made Chinese fans feel even more desperate was that Serbia, the opponent of the Chinese men's basketball team in the last round of the group stage, fought fiercely against the United States team until the last moment, almost overturning the United States team, shocking the United States team and the Chinese men's basketball team in a cold sweat.

The former didn't expect the opponent to be so tenacious, and the latter was afraid that the Mi national team would really capsize in the gutter, Serbia 2:2, then Wang Feng and Gong Luming's previous plans would become a joke.

In the eyes of the majority of Chinese fans, Serbia can actually play a score of 91:94 with the United States team, and the strength can be imagined, how can the Chinese men's basketball team be an opponent?

However, whether it is an opponent or not, whether it can qualify depends on this final round of group stage.

The Chinese men's basketball team and Serbia, both of which have 1:3 points in the group, will face off directly in this final round and fight each other to fight for the last qualifying spot!

……

On August 15, the final round of the group stage of Group A.

Huaguo men's basketball team VS Serbia.

The remaining four teams have all finished their round.

The United States narrowly defeated France 100:97.

Australia beat Venezuela 81-56.

As a result, the United States, Australia, and France have all confirmed their group qualifications and ranked in the top three in the group stage.

The last qualifying spot is the winner between the Chinese men's basketball team and Serbia.

Serbia plays standard team basketball, unlike France and Australia, which have many active NBA players, and only two of Serbia's 12-man roster are active NBA players, and that is Nuggets center Nikola. Jokic and the Nets' Bojan. Bogdanovic.

Jokic, who just entered the NBA with a second-round pick last season, averaged 10 points, 7 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game in the 15-16 season, and was named to the Rookie of the Year team, but he was far from the two-time regular season MVP winner a few years later.

The team-oriented Serbia does not have players with particularly outstanding points per game, but with the exquisite team cooperation, the players have played on the field, and the regional joint defense is extremely experienced, even if it is the United States team, it is extremely difficult to use the breakthrough to tear apart the defense in the face of Serbia's joint defense.

The advantage of the Chinese men's basketball team in the interior is not obvious in front of Serbia.

"The key to winning the game really depends on me......"

Before the start of the game, Wang Feng looked at Serbia on the other side who was warming up, and thought silently in his heart.

The last game, even if Wang Feng wants to hide it, it is impossible, the real strength gap between the two teams is huge, if Wang Feng does not intervene, the Huaguo men's basketball team will inevitably lose by a big score.

"It's a matter of success or failure!"

The game starts with players from both teams taking the field.

On the side of the Huaguo men's basketball team, the starting lineup has changed significantly compared with the previous game, Wang Feng returned to the starter, and Wang Zhelin replaced Zhou Qi to start the game.

Serbia's starting five are Jokic, Bosevic, Kalenic, Markovic, Bogdanovic.

The two teams jumped the ball, and Wang Zhelin took the first step to dial the basketball to his side.

Guo Allen dribbled the ball over half the court, without a moment's delay, and passed the ball directly to Wang Feng.

Wang Feng, who held the ball in both hands, stood at the top of the three-point line and looked at the defender in front of him.

The person responsible for marking Wang Feng is the only two NBA players in the Serbian team, Bojan, who is 2.03 meters tall and plays as a small forward. Bogdanovic.

Bogdanovic's future achievements are slightly worse than Jokic's, but at his peak, he also reached the level of 18+4 per game, which is very good in the NBA.

It's just that, like Jokic, '16 is his second year in the NBA, and his level is far from what it will be.

Staring at Bogdanovic, Wang Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Don't you press me forward? Want to maintain a good defensive formation with your teammates? ”

Indeed, referring to Wang Feng's performance in the previous games, it seems that there is no need for that, but! This game is different.

In Bogdanovic's point of view, Wang Feng, who received the pass, stood one step away from the top arc of the three-point line, and did not even make a three-threat posture, and jumped high on the spot in the next second, raising his hand to shoot.

"Shot in this position? So decisive? ”

He was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted and immediately pounced on the front defense, but due to the backward position, he was still half a beat slower.

"Brush!"

The basketball flew through the sky and then into the net.

Three points are valid!

As soon as Wang Feng opened, he got off to a good start with a three-point shot!

Serbia serves the ball from the baseline, and after sending the ball across the half court, the defender rushes straight to the basket with the help of the block, attracts the defender and passes the ball to the outside.

But a figure suddenly crossed the air at this time, intercepted the pass, and directly controlled the ball himself and rushed towards the front court.

Interceptor Badge Activated!

Bogdanovic immediately chased after Wang Feng, but in the process of running, he was stunned to find that he couldn't catch up with Wang Feng!

Wang Feng, who rushed straight to the basket, made a pull-up layup to avoid the block of the chasing player behind him, and easily put the basketball into the basket.

5:0!

Wang Feng, who had been holding back for a long time in the first four games, finally showed his sharp teeth!
