Chapter 244 Advance to the Semifinals

Since the Chinese players on the field are all moving faster and have a strong defensive pressure on the outside line, the big men of the Chinese Taipei team have no chance to shoot easily.

Here Yang Jingmin faced Yingxiong's solo defense, forcibly broke through and retreated after failing, and missed after being interfered!

Yi Jianlian accepted the rebound and handed it to Hu Xuefeng to advance.

Hu Xuefeng came over with a dribble and handed it to Ying Xiong who was in the low position.

Ying Xiong continued to single Yang Jingmin. The latter was worried that he would turn around and shoot a jump shot, so he stuck a little closer, and did not dare to lower his center of gravity too low, fearing that it would interfere with his take-off.

Ying Xiong leaned his back twice with his right hand, and suddenly took a step with his right hand.Yang Jingmin thought he was going to turn around and break through, so he quickly moved to the left.

In just an instant, Ying Xiong suddenly turned around and held the ball in his left hand. Using his speed and agility, he passed Yang Jingmin and went straight to the basket.

Lin Zhijie and others on the flanks did not dare to come over to attack, and let Wang Shipeng shoot an open 3 points, which is the same as sending the opponent 3 points.But in this way, Zeng Wending and Tian Lei can only be responsible for the task of assisting defense.

Faced with Zeng Wending's defense, Ying Xiong did not choose to pass the ball to Yi Jianlian on the other side of the basket, but chose to play strong.He leaped high, held the ball with one hand, and faced Zeng Wending. He made physical contact first, and then shot.

His shot point is so high that the "floor player" Zeng Wending can't match it.They are about the same height, but their bullet speed and jump height are not at the same level, not to mention that Ying Xiong has a wingspan of 220cm.

After Ying Xiong made physical contact with Zeng Wending, he did not lose his balance and was still able to maintain the stability of his body. He put the ball into the basket with a soft touch.

2+1!Zeng Wending fouled!

There was a lot of cheers at the scene. Ying Xiong's fake move was extraordinary and he forced a 2+1 at the basket. This made some experts on the Internet comment on his offense before saying that he is too soft and only breaks through the ball. Such rumors are self-defeating.

Coach Guo Shiqiang knows very well that Ying Xiong is not unable to attack, nor does he dare to attack, but pays more attention to the team, pays attention to efficiency, and does not want to be greedy for offense.For such a player, as a coach, there is no reason not to like it!

Staff adjustments were made on the sidelines. Zeng Wending was replaced by Wu Daihao for the second offense, and Lin Zhijie was replaced by Zhang Zongxian.

Ying Xiong made an extra penalty!

Zhang Zongxian, who just came on the field here, made a mid-range jumper with an off-ball screen!
For the rest of the first quarter, Ying Xiong did not attack personally, and switched the attack mode to the auxiliary mode, allowing Yi Jianlian and Wang Shipeng to attack.

At the end of the first quarter, the Chinese team led the Chinese Taipei team by 28 points at 20:8.

Section 2 begins.Su Yijie broke through and was intercepted by Hu Xuefeng, and the Chinese team immediately made a fast break.The Chinese Taipei team returned to the defense very quickly, preventing the opponent from playing too much in the frontcourt.

Ying Xiong received a pass from Hu Xuefeng in the frontcourt, and after a pick-and-roll with Yi Jianlian, he pressed the inside line and passed the ball down to Yi Jianlian. When the latter received the ball, he had already reached the penalty area and put the ball into the basket without any effective interference !
The Chinese Taipei team made a quick 3-pointer from outside the 3-point line, which stabilized the situation on the field and prevented the score from being opened by the opponent.The fans at the scene were very happy. Naturally, the more exciting the game, the better.Everyone can see that the gap between the two teams is obvious.The possibility of the Chinese Taipei team winning this game is almost zero.Now that the outcome is basically determined, there is no need to blow up the opponent in the internal battle. The more exciting the game, the better.

Ying Xiong still picks and rolls with Yi Jianlian in the high position, and specializes in the fact that the opponent's interior height is not enough, which makes the Chinese Taipei team very uncomfortable.But the problem is that the team does not have an insider with a height of more than 205cm. It is quite difficult to defend Yi Jianlian alone. At this time, Yi Jianlian and Ying Xiong are picking and rolling, which is impossible to defend.

Tian Lei and Wu Daihao had no choice but to shrink to the inside.In this way, Li Xiaoxu was released.

Li Xiaoxu is not a player without a basket. On the contrary, his mid-range is still very good, especially in open situations.

The Chinese Taipei team knows that Li Xiaoxu has a basket, but what can they do?There are several bottles of poison, you have to pick one!Li Xiaoxu's bottle of poison naturally couldn't be compared with Ying Xiong and Yi Jianlian in terms of toxicity.

As Li Xiaoxu's CIC began to open, the defense of the Chinese Taipei team collapsed.The huge disadvantage in size prevents them from restricting each other through single defense.This is because Ying Xiong's subordinates are merciful, and there are not too many 1-on-1 situations.They also defended the zone defense for a few rounds, but they were quickly given up by the Chinese team's excellent ball pass and precise 3-pointers.Shrinking the inside line is penetrated by the opponent's shooter, expanding the outside line is penetrated by the inside line, flanking is thrown into the open position, and not flanking 1v1 is also bullied...

For the Chinese Taipei team, facing the second team of the Chinese national team with Yingxiong Yi Jianlian, they have nothing to do.Facing the starting lineup, they can't solve Wang Zhizhi's point.

When the inside and outside lines are not as good as the opponent, it is unrealistic and unsustainable to hope for a runaway touch.The fate of the Chinese Taipei team lies in being unable to defend the opponent, not being unable to attack.If you can't defend against it, let alone you can't make a fast attack, it will have a great impact on morale.

Under the leadership of Ying Xiong and Yi Jianlian, the Chinese national team faced the Chinese Taipei team in this game, showing their advantages.Of course, they did not deliberately pursue a big score to humiliate their opponents.In the case of ensuring the victory of the game, he left the field early to rest.In internal competitions, there is no need to fight to the death, it is better to save your energy for the following competitions!

In the end, the Chinese team easily defeated the Chinese Taipei team with 102:80, achieved 6 consecutive victories and successfully entered the top 4.Their opponents in the semi-finals were the winners of South Korea and Lebanon.

应雄本场比赛上场了15分钟，5投4中其中3分球1投1中，罚球3罚2中砍下11分5篮板6助攻2抢断1盖帽，高效全面的表现助球队成功晋级！
After the game, a large number of fans from Baodao were not unhappy, they were still smiling, and they knew they were in a good mood.In their view, the strength gap between the two teams is obvious, and the possibility of the Chinese Taipei team defeating the Chinese national team is infinitely close to zero. That being the case, why bother to worry about winning or losing?Wouldn't it be better to watch the game happily and appreciate the performance of the players?In addition, for them, losing to the Chinese team in the knockout round is more emotionally acceptable.After all, in an internal war, after all, the opponent is the hegemon of Asia, and there is nothing shameful in inferior skills.

Yingxiong's popularity is quite high, Taiwan fans regard him as their own, not only cheering for him during the game, but also enthusiastically looking for his autograph after the game.

Ying Xiong is very kind and approachable, and he is very happy in his heart. Seeing that the fans of Formosa love basketball so much, he naturally satisfied the other party's requests for autographs and group photos.

For Taiwan fans, Ying Xiong is his own person, representing the entire Chinese nation, and winning glory for everyone in the NBA.
