NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 527 The world's third!

At noon on the second day, the first thing to do was the battle for the 5th to 6th and the 7th to 8th.

After several rounds of battles, the rankings are as follows:
Lithuania ranked 5th, Spain 6th, Slovenia 7th and Turkey 8th.

At 18:30 in the evening, the game between the Chinese team and the French team started.

In this game, both sides fought hard!

Those who lose will go home, and those who win will take the cards, so you must fight!

The two teams are very clear about each other's advantages. The French team has a striker combination of Batum + Dior, while the Chinese team has Wang Zelin in the interior. At the same time, they are also partnered with Yi Jianlian, who has an average of 20+ offensive firepower per game in the international arena.

After the start of the game, the veteran Zhou Peng's performance in the first half was very outstanding. Not only was he able to defend hard on the defensive end, but he was also able to make a sudden shot or counterattack from the outside to cooperate with Wang Zelin and Yi Jianlian's two big inside offenses.

At the end of the first half, the Chinese team temporarily led the French team by 43 points at 38:5.

In the second half, Wang Zelin paid special attention to Batum, the arrow figure of the French team.Since the three-point line in the international arena is shorter than that in the NBA, it directly led to Wang Zelin's defense speed being stronger than in the NBA.

In this battle, Batum finally felt the tremendous pressure of playing against Wang Zelin.

From the first quarter, the ubiquitous supplementary defense made it difficult for him to find opportunities to go inside and kill. As a last resort, he could only float and shoot from the outside in most of the rounds.

Sometimes it was hard to cut in, and before he had time to be happy, the backhand of the ball was nailed to the backboard by Wang Zelin.

If possible, I never want to be against you in my life.

These heartfelt words were spoken by Batum to Wang Zelin at the end of the game.

这场比赛巴图姆打得一般，全场打了35分钟，17投7中砍下21分3助攻2篮板，其中三分球9中2，哪还有上一场比赛三分球12中8的英勇表现。

In this game, Dior, who was on the inside line, also encountered crazy targeting from Wang Zelin, and played the worst performance since this World Cup...

After 28 minutes of playing, 5 fouls left the field!
其他数据分别是：0分1篮板2助攻0抢断0封盖！

But thinking about it carefully, Dior's performance is also expected.

In the national team, no one wipes his ass on the defensive end like Tim Duncan. Diaw is not only the core of the inside line, he also needs to attack and defend.

Including tonight, throughout the 9 games of the French team in this World Cup, Dior averaged 9.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, 4 assists, 0.2 steals and 0.4 blocks per game. Among them, he scored in double figures in 5 games. The highest score in a single game was 15 points, and the lowest score was 0 points just set tonight.

As a stocky insider with a height of only 2 meters, his scoring, assists and rebounding data have far exceeded the average data of players at the same position in this World Cup.

As the core insider of the French men's basketball team, such a performance is not bad!

It's a pity that his height disadvantage makes his performance always unsatisfactory when he encounters some teams with strong insiders.

For example, when I met Spain, Croatia, Egypt, and Serbia, in the first three games, only three points were scored in each game, and the last game was slightly better, but it was only 4 points.

Therefore, when the French team's internal and external doubles and Dior and Batum both performed abnormally, after 40 minutes of game time, 86 minutes later, at 19:56, the final whistle sounded.

The Tianchao men's basketball team defeated the French team with a 94-point difference of 81:13!

In this game, Wang Zelin and Yi Jian combined to score 52 points and 23 rebounds is crucial to the trend of the game.Of course, Zhou Peng's three three-pointers on the outside tonight are also very important, which solved the pressure on Wang Zelin and Yi Jianlian inside.

After a long journey of 15 days and a total of 9 games, the men’s basketball team finally set a record in the history of Nanzishan University and won the first medal in the history of the Chinese men’s basketball team!
Tonight, more than 14000 Chinese players poured into the scene, almost filling the entire Madrid Sports Center.From the first goal of the men's basketball team tonight, they have been cheering until the moment when the halftime whistle sounded at 19:56~~~
The scene is boiling!

The scene of Dayao and Da Da, two old boys embracing each other with tears in their eyes, once again had a great impact on Wang Zelin.

It wasn't just them, the coach Gong Luming, Yi Jianlian, Zhou Peng and others beside him had tears in their eyes... Fuck, even if they didn't get the gold medal, the bronze medal is still a medal, and Wang Zelin quickly joined the celebration.

……

……

……

The news of winning the French team spread instantly, and the domestic fans were as happy as Chinese New Year.

First, because they won the bronze medal in the World Cup, they became the third strongest team in the world basketball world, which is an achievement that the men's basketball team has never achieved in so many years;
Second, because of Wang Zelin's various inhuman performances in this World Cup, they saw the infinite possibilities of the men's basketball team in the future.

You know, Wang Zelin is only in his early twenties now.

Who can be sure that in the Olympic Games two years later, he will not become stronger; in another World Cup four years later, under his leadership, the men's basketball team may have the hope of hitting the gold medal.

This World Cup not only allowed all fans to see the progress of the Tianchao men's basketball team, but also made them gradually believe that this men's basketball team is expected to set foot on the top of the world in the future!

On this day, all the fans of the Celestial Dynasty are cheered and excited, as excited as the Chinese New Year. It can almost be described as a national celebration.

At the commentary seat, Director Zhang Lizhang stood up excitedly:

"Under the leadership of Wang Zelin in this World Cup, the Tianchao men's basketball team has reached an unprecedented height! We broke into the third place in the world! We won the bronze medal!"

Teacher Yu Jia beside him gushed out water without knowing it, and kept muttering:

"Bronze medal! Bronze medal..."

Tianchao team bench.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

Dayao patted Wang Zelin on the back and said.

"hey-hey……"

Wang Zelin scratched his head, looked at Dayao who was standing next to him and suddenly asked, "General, do you regret it now? I told you not to retire so early..."

"Fuck, you kid is really, which pot is not open and which pot to lift." He laughed and cursed, and then replied with emotion: "I regret it, this time I really regret it!"

"Hahahaha!"

Dayao and Wang Zelin looked at each other and laughed loudly.

It's just that, smiling and laughing, each other's eyes were wet with tears again.

It's not easy to be third in the world!
……

……

Another two hours passed.

The World Cup men's basketball final is over.

As the first final after the World Championship was renamed the World Cup, both finalists have attracted much attention.

It's a pity that Serbia, which entered the final, was anticlimactic and only played well in the first 3 minutes, while the Dream Eleven team performed poorly in these 3 minutes.

After that, Meng Shixi quickly entered the state, and finally defeated the opponent with great momentum.

129: 92!

The US team defeated the Serbian team and won the world number one as expected!

Owen, who played well in this game, made 6 of 6 three-pointers, contributed a team-high 26 points, and was named the best of the game!
If nothing else happens, he will win the World Cup finals MVP.

After the finals, the new world ranking came out, the US team was first, Serbia was second, the Chinese team was third, and the French team was fourth...

This World Cup is destined to remain forever in the memory of countless Chinese basketball fans.

The scene of Wang Zelin embracing Dayao and Rough after the game is very similar to the inheritance of the torch, and will become a classic memory in the minds of Chinese basketball.
