—————————————————————————————————————————————

Wang Chong, who played the full 20 minutes of the first half, was really exhausted at this moment, but he also clearly felt the effect of his physical skill value of 97 in the game. He knew he still had some energy left. A 15-minute break in the middle of the court allowed him to quickly recover part of his physical condition.

Additionally, in the third quarter of the game, with Yao's strength, Wang Chong doesn't need to hold the ball much on the court and can mainly focus on attacking. He can stand outside the three-point line in the corner, acting as a stationary shooter, putting pressure on the Dream Team.

In this world, no team dares to let Wang Chong go. Even if he does nothing on the court and just stands there, there will always be a defender in front of him. This is the card of the three-time league scoring champion.

Upon hearing Wang Chong's words, Dayao immediately shook his head and tried to persuade Wang Chong to rest, but was interrupted by Wang Chong.

"Don't worry, I know my situation well. Besides, you'll be the main attacker in the third quarter. My role on the court is simply to contain the opponent's defense."

Although it is clear that focusing on just one player to extract value is not the right approach, it is impossible to truly become an international team relying heavily on the performance of a single player.

However, when they heard that Wang Chong would continue playing in the second half, everyone on the Huaguo men's basketball team breathed a sigh of relief, including head coach Yunus.

The Chinese men's basketball team was still leading the American Dream Team at halftime. They never would have dared to think about that before. This was almost entirely due to Wang Chong's invincible performance on the court, especially in the second half. He was just too strong to be defeated by the Dream Team on his own.

Although they didn't want to admit it, everyone knew that once Wang Chong left the court to rest, the score gap between the two teams would be surpassed or even expanded in no time. After all, in the past few decades, the Chinese men's basketball team had also played against other teams of the Dream Team, and there were many instances where the Dream Team's lineup was a step weaker than the current one.

On the other hand, on the Mengba team bench, head coach Old K was also communicating with the players.

"We didn't play very well in the first half. Facing an opponent like the Chinese men's basketball team, we were still behind at halftime. It's just a pity! But it's not everyone's fault. Wang Chong's individual skill is actually far beyond my expectations."

Having said that, Old K paused and continued.

"But everyone should be able to see that Wang Chong was very tired from the high-intensity confrontation in the first half. In the second half of the game, he definitely won't be able to attack like he did before. Therefore, in the third quarter, increasing the score gap will definitely not give the opponent the chance to stabilize the situation!"

During the halftime break, the two commentators and coaches were still sighing in the CCTV studio.

"It's truly unimaginable that one day we would see the Chinese men's basketball team and the American Dream Team compete so closely on the Olympic stage. After decades of development, the Chinese basketball team has finally reached the forefront of the global level. This is inseparable from the strong support of the country for competitive sports. I believe that in the future, China will have more NBA stars like Wang Chong and Dayao to lead the Chinese men's basketball team."

Although they said this, in reality, both people in the studio knew very well, and even most of the viewers in front of the TV knew, that the Chinese men's basketball team could compete with the Dream Team entirely thanks to Wang Chong. Without Wang Chong, the Dream Team would have no difficulty handling the Chinese men's basketball team.

Wang Chong grew up in the United States and received youth basketball education there. Although he has now returned to China as a Chinese citizen, the credit really isn't due to them.

But after all, this is a live TV broadcast of the Olympics in the capital, where the whole country is celebrating. Of course, we have to know what can and cannot be said. Otherwise, how can we continue enjoying the work of commentators?

Of course, the two only had a brief chat and immediately brought the topic back to the game.

"Although we still have a 3-point advantage, the situation is actually not optimistic. The gap between the two teams' lineups is still too large. Wang Chong consumed a lot in the first half. After all, he scored 24 points in just the first half, and with so many players from the Dream Team taking turns attacking, every possession requires a lot of energy."

"Now we can only hope that Dayao can help the Chinese men's basketball team resist the fierce counterattack from the Dream Team in the third quarter after resting the whole second quarter."

The 15-minute break passed in the blink of an eye.

The game resumed in the third quarter of the second half.

The lineup of the American men's basketball team has been adjusted again. The Dream Eight team, which includes 12 All-Star players, is the most indispensable for standout players.

In the third quarter, the Dream Team changed to a lineup with point guard Deron Williams, shooting guard Kobe Bryant, small forward Anthony, power forward Boozer, and center Bosh.

Obviously, the Dream Team was going to change their tactics. The double stars of the Jazz, Deron and Boozer, are on the court. They obviously want to use more pick-and-roll cooperation from this year's NBA playoffs. The pick-and-roll tactics to eliminate Yao Yao. The Rockets were eliminated.

However, the lineup of the Chinese men's basketball team surprised both the commentators and the coaches.

"Why is Wang Chong back on the court? Isn't he tired?"

Wang Chong, who played 20 minutes in the first half, only rested for 15 minutes before immediately entering the battle again. Observing his posture, it was clear that he was aiming to play the full 40 minutes.

Is Wang Chong's physical condition really that good? Didn't we see him in NBA games before? He is probably just enduring the competition!

The Dream Team obviously didn't expect Wang Chong to continue playing at the start of the third quarter, so neither James nor Prince was allowed to play at the small forward position, but Anthony, who has medium and long-range shooting skills, was chosen.

Thus, when both sides entered the court, the Dream Team directly arranged for Anthony and Kobe to switch defenses. Although Kobe, who is 1.98 meters tall, is a bit shorter than Anthony, at least his defensive ability is much better than Anthony's, who is not good at defense.

Regardless of the fact that Kobe Bryant didn't live up to his reputation in several instances, he was still included in the defensive lineup. If a player has bad defense, he can't win the defensive lineup award, no matter how much the league tries to promote it.

However, after the Huaguo men's basketball team served from the sideline, Wang Chong didn't take the ball as quickly as he did in the first half, but instead ran to the front court and stood at the three-point line in the corner, his arms crossed. His waist was in an observational mode, enjoying the situation.

Now, the Dream Team understood that although Wang Chong was on the court, he didn't intend to attack but wanted to use the deterrent power of his shooting ability to contain the Dream Team's defense.

The problem is, this trick really works. Even if Wang Chong misses, the Dream Team doesn't dare to neglect him at all. Wang Chong's corner three-pointers are no joke. With a 41% shooting percentage, the lower corner three-pointer is the main area for improving his shooting rate. It is also a hot spot for Wang Chong's three-pointers, with a shooting rate of nearly 49%.

Instead, he often used three-pointers from the top of the arc. Although he played a decisive role in key games many times, his actual shooting percentage was not particularly high, only around 37%.

Of course, this is due to Wang Chong's Golden Corner Three-Point Shooter badge. Although it has not been updated to the higher level of the Purple Hall of Fame, the additional effect of the golden-level badge is already quite high, plus the corner position. It is perfect. It can be combined with the same Golden Hot Zone Hunter, Rhythm Shooter, and other shooting bonus badges, allowing Wang Chong to have an absurdly high shooting percentage in the corner, especially in open space.

Of course, the Dream Team, which is very familiar with Wang Chong's technical characteristics, wouldn't make such a stupid mistake, so Kobe could only follow Wang Chong closely and hang in the corner with him.

After Sun Yue dribbled the ball past half-court, he passed the ball inside to Dayao.

Bosh's defensive effect against Dayao was not as good as Howard's. On the offensive side, he could indeed use his reach and mobility to slip past Dayao, but on the defensive side, how could his thin bamboo-stick-like body resist Dayao's post-play?

It didn't even require much effort. Dayao pressed his back to the basket twice, then easily reached the basket, turned halfway, raised his hand, and easily sent the ball into the basket.

Dayao successfully replaced Wang Chong, and the Chinese men's basketball team's offense continued.

On the sideline of the American men's basketball team, Old K stood with his arms crossed, frowning.

The Chinese men's basketball team has become much more difficult than expected. He didn't expect it to be this way with just one Wang Chong more.

And not just Wang Chong, Dayao's performance on the court also surprised him.

With solid inside footwork and offensive skills at the basket, along with a stable mid-range shooting ability, Dayao basically has no other deficiencies as an inside center except his slightly slower speed and physical deficiencies.

It just so happened that the Dream Team only had Howard and Bosh on the inside, and there was no heavy center who could compete with Dayao.

In the past, they just had to keep accelerating and use their mobility to wear down Dayao's physical condition, and they could easily win the game. However, the emergence of Wang Chong also made this plan unfeasible in the second quarter. I did not play a full quarter of the game and rested for almost half an hour. My physical strength has already recovered to about 77% and I still have no problem enduring the third quarter.

Since then, the game on the court has become a contest of offensive capabilities between the two teams.

Deron and Boozer's pick-and-roll was extremely lethal and it was difficult for the Chinese men's basketball team to stop it.

But Yao's strong attack at the basket also made Bosh miserable. He even played only a few minutes before he couldn't hold on and replaced Howard again.

It's just that, after all, Dayao is no Wang Chong. Even with all his firepower, his offensive ability is still not as good as Wang Chong's. This leads to the fact that in the third quarter of the game, the Dream Team relied on their deep lineup. to even the score difference bit by bit. Breakthrough achieved.

In the third quarter of the game, the two teams scored 27:20 respectively. Huaguo men's basketball team lost 7 points in a single quarter, going from a 3-point lead to a 4-point deficit.

But this result has left Wang Chong very satisfied, because as long as the point difference is not so large that it is too late to chase points, there will be chances to win in the last quarter of the game.

Although he came back to play the whole game in the third quarter, his style of play of standing in the corner and hanging saved him a lot of energy, and he even regained some of his energy. He played the entire last quarter at full strength. Definitely not enough, but if you play smarter and make more use of energy-saving offensive methods like pick-and-roll screens, you should barely be able to sustain them.

After the third quarter, the Dream Team started to panic.

In the previous game, they didn't let it loose at all. After all, their opponent was the Chinese men's basketball team led by Wang Chong. But the current stalemate situation really tells everyone with facts that the Chinese men's basketball team is really capable of competing with the discouraged Dream Team.

"In the last quarter of the game, we must not give the opponent a chance to catch up with the score.We are the strongest Dream Team in the world and cannot lose easily even in a group game!" the players and said Shen Sheng said, "In the last quarter, we must guard against Wang Chong and use double teams when necessary. We must not let him score as he did in the second quarter.

The

idea is beautiful, but in the second quarter!" In most cases, the next step will often backfire.

If Wang Chong had targeted players who could be easily restricted, he would not have won the scoring crown for three consecutive years and would not have led the Bulls to the championship.

The Dream Eight team staunchly defended Wang Chong, but the Huaguo men's basketball team also went out of its way to find ways to help Wang Chong share the pressure, often using pick-and-roll screens and even double pick-and-rolls to win opportunities. Wang Chong.

Wang Chong lived up to expectations and scored two consecutive goals, directly tying the point differential.

The tense last quarter began.

The American Dream Team took the lead on the court, but because they were too preoccupied with Wang Chong, they became much looser in their defense of other players on the Chinese men's basketball team. Instead, in the last quarter, China's men's basketball team. It was hampered from the outside. Fewer opportunities for open shots.

Huaguo's outside shooters, led by Zhu Fangyu and Wang Shipeng, did not stretch their hips at critical moments. However, any shots that appeared in open space were basically successful. Therefore, the Huaguo men's basketball team was able to continue to fight. the dream team.

The game time passed minute by minute, and the audience in front of the TV had sweat on their hands and their hearts soaring.

No one thought that the Chinese men's basketball team fought fiercely with the Dream Team until the very last moment!

Unconsciously, there were less than 2 minutes left in the game.

The two teams were tied at 89:89 and the Dream Team had the ball.

Kobe successfully made his way with the ball and drew a defensive foul on Dayao. He went to the free throw line and hit 2 of 2 free throws.

The Dream Team took the lead again with 91:89 left.

In fact, Kobe's performance in this game has not been very good. So far, his personal scoring has just surpassed double digits. The best performance of the Dream Team in the whole game is undoubtedly the substitute sixth man, Wade, who has scored 19 points. so far, the highest for the dream team.

In the NBA, most of the 12 players on the Dream Team can easily score more than 30 points in a game.

However, in the Olympics, with less playing time and a more dispersed distribution of ball rights, it is rare for a certain player to score very high in the game.

In contrast, for the Chinese men's basketball team, the scoring is highly concentrated on Wang Chong and Dayao, especially Wang Chong. So far, Wang Chong has not even taken a second to rest.

Between them, there were 24 points in the first half. Basically no shots in the third quarter, Wang Chong scored 9 points in the last quarter.

The Chinese men's basketball team relied heavily on Wang Chong's offensive scoring throughout the game. Even the reason why other players were able to score against the Dream Team's defense was due to Wang Chong's offense when he was on the court. .

Wang Chong's 33 points, plus Dayao's 19 points, Wang Chong and Dayao alone scored 52 points, while the other players of the Huaguo men's basketball team currently only have 37 points.

But now that the game has reached the final critical moment, Wang Chong can still be relied on.
