Such data immediately aroused the amazement of the media and fans.

"It's an honor for the Chinese team to lose!"

"Lu Shaojie carries the banner alone!"

"His performance can already be called a superstar!"

"Lu Shaojie explained what an all-round superstar is with his unsolvable offense!"

Even the players from the opponent Spanish team came over after the game to shake hands with Lu Shaojie.

Little Gasol was full of praise for Lu Shaojie.

"Lu Shaojie, your performance today is phenomenal."

"You almost beat us all by yourself."

"Your future is limitless!"

"I look forward to playing against you in the NBA in the future."

"Thank you!"

Although the game was lost, the coaches were not worried at all.

With the Spanish team, it was only in the last minute that the winner was determined. These young players have already performed very well.

Couldn't ask for more from them.

"You played very well today. Don't lose your confidence. There are still two group matches to come. We will definitely win."

"come on!"

When the players of the national team walked out of the basketball hall, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

The team's exclusive bus was completely surrounded, and a group of girls were shouting Lu Shaojie's name.

There are Chinese fans holding national flags, and a considerable number of Tokyo fans.

"Lu Shaojie!"

"Lu Shaojie!"

"Lu Shaojie!"

The moment they saw Lu Shaojie, they started screaming excitedly.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Some people even rushed towards Lu Shaojie.

Security guards stopped them and opened a passage for the Chinese team.

The team members got into the car.

Lu Shaojie waved to them with a smile, which immediately attracted another scream.

"Lu Shaojie, because of you, I seem to feel the treatment of the American Dream Team."

"Haha."

"Your popularity is simply too great!"

The teammates were joking and didn't take too much negative emotion because of the loss of this game.

……

……

In the subsequent group match, the Chinese team defeated the Nigerian team and won their first victory.

The next opponent, the Serbian team.

This is undoubtedly another strong team.

The core player in the team, Jokic, is a super inside player.

Defending him against him will be a big problem again.

Game start.

Doncic controlled the ball and Lu Shaojie defended.

Jokic came up to screen, and after the pick-and-roll, the ball went to Jokic.

Facing Hu Jinqiu's defense, Jokic scored a mid-range shot.

0:2
Lu Shaojie broke through Doncic's defense and passed the ball to Wang Xiangbin.

Wang Xiangbin made a three-pointer.

3:2
Then Jokic feinted against Hu Jinqiu, but the ball passed to Bogdanovic.

Bogdanovic made a three-pointer and scored.

3:5
Hu Mingxuan also made a three-pointer.

6:5
In the first quarter of the game, the offense of both sides played smoothly, and the score rose alternately.

25:23
After the first quarter, the Chinese team led by two points.

In the second quarter, both teams maintained a good touch.

The score was always tight.

51:48
The Chinese team entered the second half with a 3-point advantage.

In the third quarter, Jokic obviously strengthened his personal offense. Hu Jinqiu couldn't defend Jokic on his own, and Jokic scored consecutively.

As a last resort, the coach adjusted his strategy and double-teamed Jokic.

In this way, Jokic played more smoothly and assisted his teammates to score consecutively.

Leading the Serbian team to overtake the score.

75:76
The third quarter is over.

Lu Shaojie volunteered, "Coach, why don't you let me guard Jokic."

"it is good."

The coach is having this idea.

It is not realistic for Lu Shaojie to mark Jokic all over the court, but if he is the main defense, it will consume less energy on him.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Lu Shaojie rushed to the basket, used flexible steps, threw off Jokic's defense, and scored an advanced goal.

77:76
Then Jokic tried to single Lu Shaojie, failed, and distributed the ball to the outside line, and Doncic missed a shot.

In the next game, Jokic played very uncomfortable.

No one double-teamed him, and the ball he passed was just that threatening.

He singled out Lu Shaojie, although he could score goals, but his shooting percentage was not high.

And it takes a lot of energy.

Jokic tried several times, but he still couldn't find a way to deal with Lu Shaojie.

Lu Shaojie made great contributions on the defensive end and was equally efficient on the offensive end, leading the team to a wave of offensive frenzy.

97:90
With 2 minutes left in the game, the Chinese team led by 7 points.

As long as Jokic is on the court, the Serbian players will definitely pass the ball to him, and he will instigate the offense.

This is both habit and trust.

But it is also a hidden danger.

A team relies too much on one player. If this player can't perform, the game will be difficult to play.

Jokic received the ball from outside the three-point line, and Lu Shaojie followed up.

Jokic couldn't break through Lu Shaojie's defense by dribbling, so he could only pass the ball to outside players.

Doncic made a strong three-pointer and missed the goal.

Hu Jinqiu got the rebound and passed the ball to Lu Shaojie.

Lu Shaojie scored a fast break.

99:90
Doncic dribbles across half court and passes the ball to Jokic.

Jokic is facing the basket from beyond the three-point line.

Lu Shaojie stopped in front of Jokic.

Jokic made a sudden shot and made a three-pointer.

The ball is in.

99:93
Lu Shaojie slowed down the pace of the game, and when the offensive time was almost exhausted, he suddenly started and went to the basket to score

101:93
There are 1 minutes left in the game.

The suspense is gone.
