The Chinese team is, you go back quickly, we just play slowly and steadily.Every ball is played seriously with its own tactics and coordination.

However, the chaotic battle of the US team finally played an effect in the constant wheel battle.

Li Nan can shoot three-pointers, but the US team has a bunch of people who can score three-pointers.

Of course, the players of the US team are also happy to advance to the finals, but seeing the Chinese team like this, their faces are full of question marks.

"We won the game, didn't we?"

The American players looked at each other.

Rudy Tomjanovich looked frosty.

"Let that kid get a high score again, damn it!"

Still, Rudy Tomjanovich smiled when he saw another player's stats on the scoreboard
On the sidelines, Carter found Li Nan and asked curiously, "Man, why are you so happy?"

"I scored 42 points, 42 points on top of the US team, of course I am happy."

You scored 42 points against the US team, so why not be complacent?

Hearing what Li Nan said, Carter suddenly became unhappy. He only scored 16 points.It's not low in the US team, but compared with Li Nanyi, I'm not happy, not happy!
At this time, Li Nan added: "Vince, why didn't you dunk today? On the contrary, you were blocked a lot, 4 times? It seems."

"Goodbye!"

Carter turned around in an instant, raised his hand, and left without a move.
