The era of point forwards in the NBA

Chapter 129 The Best Chance (asking for a subscription, asking for a monthly pass)

"The physical strength of the Chinese team in the second half is the key. If they can persevere, it is not impossible to win three consecutive victories." Sun Zhengping said.

"But Nowitzki's physical fitness is not much, and the German team's offense in the first half relied on him." Zhang Weiping was right. In the locker room, Nowitzki gasped for breath, his face was ashen, it was impossible to give up, and he had to stand to die.

The rest of the German team didn't panic. They seemed to have accepted the foregone conclusion. The difference of 6 points was not much, but they couldn't solve the Chinese team's attack.

The Chinese team is not only Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian also performed well this time, scoring 8 points. The defensive end spent a lot of energy trying to limit Nowitzki, but the offensive end was still efficient.

Lin Yue only scored 2 points, but he had 6 assists in a single quarter to revitalize the team. His desire to attack this time was not high, and he was always a little bit unmotivated. Seeing the high-quality matchup between Nowitzki and Yao Ming, he found that there was still a big gap between himself and the real stars.

During the entire Olympics, he transferred from the NCAA to the national team, which was a completely different experience.

Westbrook, Curry, and Love are all very strong, but they all have shortcomings and immature play styles.

But the American Dream Team, Spain's Pau Gasol, and today's Nowitzki, top stars of this level made him realize what the gap is.

Regardless of the outcome of this Olympic Games, Lin Yue has benefited a lot as a younger brother. At the age of 18, he still has a possibility. These big guys are his goals.

"Lin, you're starting to think about things again." Yao Ming has always been the image of the big brother during this time, giving Lin Yue advice, he found that Lin Yue always likes to think about things and forget about the surrounding environment.

"Well, I've thought too much." Lin Yue scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Worried about losing the game?" Yao Ming said to Lin Yue while wiping his sweat with a towel.

Lin Yue shook his head and nodded again, are you worried?It's true that Nowitzki can always hit some magic balls. Although they are leading now, who knows what will happen in the second half.

"Just play well. We should worry about the future. For example, how about joining the Rockets?"

Yao Ming was caught off guard and changed the topic. Lin Yue did not expect that Yao Ming would recruit in the national team.

Lin Yue seriously thought about Yao's problem. The combination of Madi and Yao Ming sounds like the Lakers' Kobe and Gasol, but both of them are affected by injuries to varying degrees. If I were in the past, I should be able to integrate into it. The national team has cooperated very well with Yao Ming. Once I join the Rockets, I can directly integrate into the tactics.

The seamless connection, plus Medina's drifting style of play, he has always liked, the four major shooting guards are well-deserved, and when you think about it carefully, the Rockets seem to be really good.

"Don't think about it, I was just joking. With your strength, your pick in next year's draft will definitely not be low. We are not sure that we will be able to snatch you." Yao Ming said, he was actually just joking, and he has seriously considered this issue.

Even before joining the national team, the manager asked Yao Ming to inquire about the possibility, but Yao Ming flatly refused. He was very clear about the current framework of the Rockets, and the future of this team was not clear. Lin Yue had a better choice.

He said this was just to let Lin Yue stop thinking about it, but he didn't expect Lin Yue to really think about it.

"Don't talk about it, let's talk about other things after this game." Yao Ming said.

The half-time break is coming to an end, and Jonas returns to the field with the Chinese team.

Nowitzki's expression was not relaxed, and his palms were sweating. He knew what he was facing in the second half of the game. If he didn't stand up, the German men's basketball team's Olympic journey would come to an end.

Nowitzki returned to the court again, and Yao Ming also played again. If the Chinese team can expand the score in the third quarter, the outcome of this game is basically determined.

"Let's watch the match between the Chinese team and the German team in the second half. The Chinese team played well in the first half. They still led their opponents by 6 points even though their three-pointers were not good. Yao Ming was excellent on both ends of the offense and defense. Nowitzki supported half of the German team and scored 18 points in the first half." Sun Zhengping's voice sounded a little bewildered.

Nowitzki came outside the three-point line and received a pass from his teammate to try a three-pointer.

Now it is no longer Yi Jianlian who is defending him. Yi Jianlian is communicating with Lin Yue off the court at this time, and Wang Zhizhi is defending him.

Wang Zhizhi's playing style and body shape are very similar to Nowitzki's. Some people even think that if a team values ​​Wang Zhizhi, he can also gain a foothold in the NBA like Nowitzki.

Wang Zhizhi is indeed very strong, but when he and Nowitzki face off, you can clearly see the gap between the two.

Wang Zhizhi's flexibility is obviously not as good as Nowitzki's, but he missed the open three-pointer.

Liu Wei advanced with the ball, and the Chinese team had many choices, playing steadily.

Yao Ming caught the ball at the top of the arc and gave it to Big Zhi. Big Zhi was a little timid facing Nowitzki, so he gave up one-on-one singles and passed the ball to Zhu Fangyu.

Zhu Fangyu tricked the defender into the penalty area with a fake shot. In fact, his three-pointer today was not accurate, so he chose to fake the shot. Normally, he would shoot directly. What a lot of nonsense.

Kaman confronted at the basket, Zhu Fangyu missed the layup, and the German team began to counterattack.

This time they did not pass the ball to Nowitzki, but pushed forward without thinking. In the end, the pass made a mistake, the basketball flew out of the baseline, and missed an excellent opportunity to chase points.

Nowitzki, who was running behind, shook his head helplessly. This mistake was outrageous.

"The German team is digging a hole in Nowitzki. They don't score this kind of goal. It's too demoralizing." Sun Zhengping said with some sympathy.

Nowitzki is a bit like a lone hero today, carrying the whole team by himself.

No matter how strong you are, you are no better than a team, let alone at the opponent's home court.

The thing that Nowitzki was most worried about before the game still appeared. Amid the loud cheers at home, the Chinese team set off a wave of offensive climax.

Zhu Fangyu received Liu Wei's pass, used a high cover and scored a three-pointer, which made the German team feel cold.

Nowitzki held the ball alone and returned a three-pointer.

"Answer ball, how about Nowitzki is an MVP-level player, and his role at critical moments is worthy of recognition." Zhang Weiping said.

Nowitzki's three-pointer is really tough, and the three-pointer with the ball is not common among big men.

However, Sun Yue made another three-pointer and directly stopped the German team. The sudden offensive was like a downpour, setting off a hut swaying in the wind.

After the timeout, the German team changed their lineup. Nowitzki still stayed on the field, and he couldn’t play. But this time the magic wasn’t there. The Chinese team defended against the German team’s attack and played another fast break. Yao Ming dunked successfully after receiving a return pass from his teammates.

The point difference stretched to double digits. After that, the German team couldn't stand it anymore. Lin Yue successfully won a game. The Chinese team is now in full swing.

"I really tried my best, but the Chinese team is in such a state that even Spain can beat the German team, not to mention the lone hero. Not long after the fourth quarter, the German team put on a pure substitute lineup and gave up resistance." When Nowitzki was off the field, the Chinese fans gave warm applause, which is respect for the strong.

The three-game winning streak in the Olympic group is the best result of the Chinese men's basketball team for many years.

Finally, this time is the best opportunity.
