But don't forget, this demon sword is already 39 years old, which is one year younger than his old partner Duncan who just retired not long ago. The demon sword's body is already covered with cracks, and it is destined not to last long.
The strength of the Argentina men's basketball team's substitute players is far worse than that of the starting lineup. Even the starting lineup cannot bring defensive pressure to Wang Zelin, let alone this group of nameless supporting players.
The Chinese team attacked, Wang Zelin's breakthrough, this time the Argentine team's contraction was very complete, making it clear that they would not allow breakthroughs, and Wang Zelin could only score the ball to Guo Ailun at the top of the key.
Guo Ailun's three-point shot bounced on the basket and was about to fall into the net bag, but the young player Zou Yuchen was too impatient. He jumped up and hit the ball and was called an offensive interference ball.
"..."
Guo Ailun immediately cast a look full of resentment. He was about to break the embarrassment of scoring, but was ruined by his teammates.
"Mine! Mine!"
Zou Yuchen smiled and touched the back of his head sheepishly.
"Stop talking nonsense and get back to defense!"
The boss's roar came to their ears, and the two men's expressions changed and they quickly retreated.
Looking back, Ginobili took advantage of Scola's high screen to make an emergency three-pointer in the pick-and-roll.
"This ball is so unreasonable, it can't be scored!" Zhang Lili immediately shouted. This choice is very unconventional, and it is difficult for ordinary people to grasp such a rhythm point.
But Ginobili said: I can grasp it!
"Uh-huh!"
With a crisp sound, the ball was still thrown in by Ginobili.
"Uh...ahem!"
Zhang Lili suddenly blushed, and the slap came too quickly.
However, relying on Yaodao's short-term burst, the score reached 30:32, and the Argentine team caught up to only two points.
Seeing that the situation was unstable, Wang Zelin did not pass the next ball. After the breakthrough, he encountered Scola's defense and half-turned and hooked to score two points.
The old Mosaic player Diamond has aged. Just like this Argentine team, it is difficult to restrain Wang Zelin.
Looking back, Ginobili continued to attack with pick-and-rolls.
This time, Wang Zelin took more precautions and had complete defense in place. Ginobili had no chance to make a shot.
He returned the ball to Scola, who met Zou Yuchen's high jumper.
"Uh-huh!"
Scola seized the opportunity and the ball went into the net.
At the critical moment when the score was about to be opened, the Argentine team actually staged another veteran's death drama, which was unexpected.
Fortunately, not everyone in the Argentine team is like this. Now the only players who can match the defensive intensity of the Chinese team are Ginobili and Scola.
They relied on the two-man spin to hold on to the score in the short term, but as time went on and their physical fitness declined, it would be the end of the Argentine team.
After halftime, the score between the two sides was 55:51, with the Chinese team leading by 4 points.
Wang Zelin scored 26 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 blocks and 1 steal at halftime. His performance was still versatile and unsolvable.
"The score in this half is almost catching up with the NBA." Yu Jia said.
"Both sides have a strong desire to attack today, and their shooting percentages are good. The degree of stalemate in the game is indeed a bit unexpected." Zhang Lili said.
According to the rules of FIBA, today's game between the two teams was extremely fast-paced, with a proper offensive battle. On the Tianchao team, except for Wang Zelin, who remained calm-faced, the physical fitness of the other players was rapidly declining.
However, there are obviously more players on the Argentina team suffering from physical crises than on the Chinese team.
During the halftime break, players from both teams took the time to rest and adjust tactics in the locker room.
The atmosphere in the Tianchao team's locker room is still relatively relaxed. Except for the first game against the Dream Team 12, their outside shooters performed very well in other games.
The main thing about playing Dream Team 12 is that you encounter the ultimate boss right from the beginning. Anyone who comes next will inevitably be nervous.
Later, they continued to win consecutively through the group stage, and after Wang Zelin and Dayao performed a double act, the men's basketball team became more and more confident. They even played against the Kangaroo national team, which emphasized physical confrontation, and had the upper hand throughout the game. In terms of fierceness, To a certain extent, he is truly worse than a bandit.
Therefore, after passing coach Gong Luming's analysis in the locker room, he learned that his team's advantage lies in youth, while the opponent's disadvantage happens to be excessive aging. All members of the men's basketball team are full of confidence in reaching the semi-finals and making history.
In the first half, Argentina's most physically exhausted players were Scola, who scored 9 points and 5 rebounds, Nocioni, who scored 3 three-pointers and 12 points in the half, and Ginobili, who scored 17 points in the half. , in the second half, as long as the Chinese team can further put pressure on Argentina, these Argentine vultures, whose average age is close to 40 years old, will definitely be beaten to death by the men's basketball team.
What's more, they are still 4 points ahead of Argentina, so if they want to be anxious, it should be their opponent who is anxious.
At the end of halftime, the players from both sides returned to the court. The head coaches of the two teams looked at each other from a distance and unanimously dispatched the starting lineup.
On the way to the semi-finals, the Olympic men's basketball team supported an on-the-spot elimination system, which was like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat.
"Manu, the Argentine people need us to bring back a medal! The rest is up to you!"
When Ginobili stood up to prepare to play, the Argentinian owner looked at James affectionately and shouted excitedly.
Not only in the hearts of players, but also in the hearts of coaches, Manu Ginobili is the Michael Jordan of the Argentine men's basketball team. He is the god of basketball in the hearts of all Argentine fans!
Ginobili was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then nodded heavily. Starting in 1997, during his nearly 20-year career with the national team, this strange demonic sword that looked like a devil and a god contributed many classics at its peak. do.
The pinnacle masterpiece is undoubtedly the one that blocked the Dream Six team from the Olympic finals and finally led the Argentine men's basketball team to win the first Olympic championship.
When everyone thought he was out of gas, he would always stand up and prove to the world that Bi Yao Dao obviously hadn't reached the end of his life yet.
Ginobili thought of the breeze on the Pampas grassland, the long and handsome hair he once had, and the experience of the national team in the past nearly 20 years...
Not surprisingly, this year's Olympics will be his last time wearing the national flag and fighting for Argentina, and he has already made plans to shed his last drop of blood for the Argentine men's basketball team.
Suddenly, the soul of the unyielding fighter was awakened, causing the blood in this old body to boil.
This demonic sword seems to be bringing surprises to the Argentine people once again.
…
In the third quarter of the game, the Argentine men's basketball team took the lead in launching a wave under the leadership of Ginobili. When they saw Argentina overtaking the Chinese team, countless Chinese fans in front of the TV couldn't help but sigh at this moment:
Looking at the demon sword in a desperate situation, it really deserves its reputation!
