Chapter 1536
"I announce that the Ninth Stankovic Cup Intercontinental Basketball Championship is now open~!!!"

"Ooh~!!!!"

China, Gansu, LZ City Stadium, full of voices.

This intercontinental competition, which has been held in China for eight times, is about to start a new chapter.

In addition to the host Chinese team, there are Nigerian teams from Africa, Puerto Rico teams from North America, and Argentina teams from South America.

The four teams will fight each other two by two to compete for the final championship.

Given that Lan Shengli came to Lanzhou this time with the belief that he must win the championship, the Chinese team naturally became the biggest favorite to win the championship.

The first game of the Chinese team is about to begin.

The opponent is Puerto Rico.

The height of the Puerto Rico team is much shorter than that of the Chinese team in all positions, but at the center position, it is surprisingly tall.

The main center of the Puerto Rico team is Peter Ramos, a 221 cm tall Peter Ramos who had a fight with Yao Ming and was a second-round pick in the NBA. He came to the CBA in recent seasons.

The exaggerated tattoos on his arms, coupled with his "sinister" look, make Ramos look very difficult to mess with.

Ramos has undoubtedly become the biggest and most capable player of the Puerto Rico team.

In front of Ramos, the height of the inside players of the Chinese team does not have any advantage.

But after all, Ramos has played in the CBA for many years, so the players of the Chinese team are very familiar with his technical characteristics, which should be beneficial to the Chinese team.

"In the CBA arena, I only used [-]% of my skills. Now, I want to use all my firepower~!!"

Ramos thought to himself as he prepared to jump the ball.

It seems that Ramos is quite high-spirited.

"Come on~!!"

Ramos continued to cheer himself up, lowered his center of gravity and prepared to jump the ball.

"Damn~, I jumped so high~!!"

However, when Ramos was about to take off, Yi Jianlian on the side had already jumped high, rising from the ground like a rocket into the sky.

Seeing this, Ramos could only praise obediently.

Compared to bouncing, Ramos should go back a little bit.

The Chinese team got the first attack.

In addition to Yi Jianlian, the rest of the Chinese team are Li Xiaoxu, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng and Liu Wei.

Here Liu Wei dribbled the ball and came to the frontcourt.

Lan Shengli transferred the half-court offensive tactics from the Clippers to the Chinese team.

That is to use the pick-and-roll to create a defense.

While speaking, after Liu Wei and Yi Jianlian passed the pick-and-roll, Liu Wei faced Ramos.

"Hmph~, players who are older than me, don't try to get past me~!!, come on~!! I want to "eat you"~!!"

Ramos looked at Liu Wei, still full of confidence.

"What, you voted~?!"

However, just as Ramos made a posture to defend Liu Wei's breakthrough, the latter directly made a very sudden three-pointer.

"Damn~!!, Despicable~!!"

Ramos was tricked again.

"Swipe~!!"

Three-point hollow hit.

The Chinese team took the lead in opening.

"Damn~!!, Damn~!!, you actually played me~!!, I want you to pay the price~!!!"

Ramos thought to himself, already burning with anger.

Soon, the Puerto Rico team attacked.

Ramos got the ball in the low post and started hitting Yi Jianlian with his back.

Yi Jianlian kept retreating, as if he couldn't bear it.

"Haha~!!, you know the dominance of my power~!!"

Ramos thought to himself, putting all his strength into the back punch.

At this time, Yi Jianlian suddenly resorted to a "withdraw stool"~
"Ah~!!!!"

Accompanied by Ramos' tragic scream, he staggered and fell to the ground.

The referee immediately whistled Ramos' walking violation.

"Damn~!!, hate, hate~!!!"

Ramos seemed to be going berserk, and the anger in his heart was already burning.

Ramos, who has lost his calm and reason, has no threat to the Chinese team at all.

At most, he is a "silly big man".

The Chinese team quickly grasped the initiative on the field and indeed achieved a double-digit lead, leading all the way to the end and winning the game.

"When I return to the CBA, I must take good care of you guys. Remember me~!"

The angry look of Ramos is quite cute.

In the second game after that, the Chinese team faced the "African Elephant" Nigeria team.

"The opponent can run and jump, so we should try our best not to speed up, but to slow down, and the opponent's defense is not patient enough, and he likes to steal rashly, so we must be more patient in passing the ball, and we will definitely have a chance~!!, Find out who to pass the ball to before you catch it~”

Lan Shengli warned before the game.

After the start of the game, the Nigerian team's ability to run and jump was indeed brought into full play.

Although the shooting percentage was not high, he grabbed multiple offensive rebounds.

But fortunately, the Chinese team still has an NBA-level player Yi Jianlian on the inside.

Yi Jianlian blocked the block from the left and interfered from the right, which made Nigeria's second attack return in vain.

"Swipe~!!"

On the offensive end, Yi Jianlian can also hit long-range three-pointers.

Relying on Yi Jianlian's excellent offensive and defensive performance, the Chinese team defeated the Nigerian team.

After that, the Chinese team defeated the Argentine team, which basically played in the second team lineup, and entered the final.

In the final, the Chinese team still faced the Argentine team.

Although the main Argentine players such as Ginobili, Scola, Ficioni, and Oberto were absent, the players of the second team continued the Argentine team's team basketball style of play.

Very smooth and highly entertaining.

But when it comes to team basketball, Lan Shengli is also very good at it.

"The final is still to face the opponent without reservation. What we have to do is to win the championship. There is no other task tonight, just the championship~!!!"

Before the match, Lan Shengli spoke in a tone like a military order.

After the game started, the players used their lives, because the Chinese team was higher than the Argentine team in every position, so the defensive end used their height to cover the opponent.

On the offensive end, every player in the Chinese team dribbles the ball with their backs like an inside line, ensuring that they will not be cut off, and at the same time, they can also transmit open positions.

"Swipe~!!"

Zhu Fangyu hit a three-pointer.

"Swipe~!!"

Wang Shipeng chased and made a three-pointer.

As the Chinese team's outside shooters have blossomed one after another.

The Chinese team established the victory of the game.

71: 59.

The Chinese team defeated the Argentine team again in the final and won the Stankovic Cup.

It is also the first time to win the competition.

"Yeah~!!!"

Accompanied by the fireworks spraying around the podium, the team's big brother Wang Zhizhi was among the players, holding the championship trophy high.

Everyone cheered and jumped for joy.

Perhaps this championship, for Lan Shengli, can more or less restore some of the pain and regret of the previous loss in the finals.

This championship is also the first championship that Lan Shengli has led the team to win since his coaching career.
