It is even rare to compete with the American team.
Throughout all positions on the field, except Wang Fei, their personnel in any position are much worse than their opponents.
The second quarter is about to begin.
Popovich has been following the movements of the Chinese team.
According to his prediction, Wang Fei should rest on the bench for a few minutes to catch his breath in the second quarter.
Because it is not good for the Chinese team to continue to play.
The whole game lasts 40 minutes, and the important players of each team cannot be put on the court by the coach for the whole game without a minute's rest.
This will make the players tired.
Excessive fatigue will reduce the efficiency of players.
If the Chinese team wants to win the American team, it can only rely on Wang Fei.
Good steel is naturally used on the blade.
Play and rest. Only when the game is decisive can we play a high-level game. Come on!
But Popovich was wrong this time.
He found that Wang Fei continued to play.
Popovich shook his head.
This is not playing cards according to the routine!
However, this is not a bad thing for the United States team.
Wang Fei plays continuously, and his state will certainly be affected.
Wang Fei has played the whole game in the first quarter and scored 42 points. How can he be so efficient in the second quarter?
Wang Fei entered the game.
As soon as he came to the court, a prompt sounded in his mind.
"Dear host, you triggered a temporary task: send ten assists in this competition and expand the score lead to more than 10." the soft female voice of the system sounded in Wang Fei's brain.
Wang Fei shook his head.
Should I send ten assists in this quarter?
He glanced at his teammates in the second quarter.
Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhelin and Guo Allen all came to rest.
Zhou Qi, Zhai Xiaochuan and Zhao Rui took the place. Ding yanyuhang also continued to stay on the court.
Inside, Zhou Qi is quite flexible and active under the basket. Ding yanyuhang and Zhai Xiaochuan have very strong three-point projection ability, and the hit rate of empty three-point shot is quite good.
Wang Fei thought, then pull out the big space as much as possible and let his teammates complete the projection!
The game began.
The American team's right to the ball.
The United States team has also replaced all the newcomers.
Their starting has been completely replaced.
Now on the court are Andre Drummond, harden, Leonard, clay Thompson and Chris Paul.
It has to be said that the depth of the American team's lineup is too strong.
Their second lineup is also starry, all strong people.
In this lineup, harden is the former scoring king with unparalleled scoring ability. Leonard's defense and attack are also top. Kawai is the best defensive player and the MVP of the finals.
Chris Paul is known as a small steel gun.
Although he is short, only 1.83 meters, he is fast and very strong. Paul's misplaced defense of tall players is amazing.
This lineup is not easy to play.
To Wang Fei's surprise, the American team was controlled by harden. And clay and Chris Paul are staring at themselves again.
Wang Feixin said, is this too extravagant?
Clay is such a good three-point pitcher. They have their own offensive opportunities. Why don't they run and get ready to shoot, but come to defend me?
Chris Paul entangled Wang Fei, while clay Thompson was always ready to fill the seat.
Wang Fei can only struggle to get rid of it.
In the entanglement, the two sides came to the half-time of the Chinese team.
Harden dribbled the ball out of the front three-point line.
Zhao Rui and Ding yanyuhang came to defend harden.
Harden didn't choose to play hard, but passed the ball to Leonard.
Leonard took the ball and went straight to the basket.
Zhou Qi jumped up to defend.
The defense has been done quite well.
However, Leonard took a step faster and pushed the ball into the basket.
The American team's attack success rate is still very high.
Wang Fei quickly went to catch the baseline ball.
Paul ran quickly and tried to stop Wang Fei from catching the ball.
Wang Fei suddenly changed direction and got rid of Paul, and reached out to catch Zhao Rui's pass.
However, as soon as he received the ball, Paul jumped behind him. Paul stretched out his left leg to block Wang Fei's left leg and prevent Wang Fei from dribbling the ball smoothly.
But Wang Fei's frequency was obviously faster. He took the lead. Dribbling was an acceleration and took a big step away from Paul.
Clay hurried to fill the seat.
Wang Fei changed direction and tried to break through from the right.
Clay made a quick replacement.
Wang Fei turned with the ball and passed clay cleanly from the left.
But to Wang Fei's surprise, Chris Paul suddenly ran past him and tried to steal it.
Wang Fei's control of the ball is so firm. With a high-frequency racket, he avoided Paul's snatch, and Wang Fei broke through Paul. This time, he got rid of Paul and clay, and Wang Fei rushed to the front court.
Harden rushed over to make up for it.
Wang Fei made a fake Buddha worship move and quickly passed the ball to Ding yanyuhang.
Good pass!
However, Ding yanyuhang was cheated by Wang Fei's fake Buddha worship. He ran under the basket and tried to prepare for rebounding.
The ball was lost.
Leonard took a lunge and caught the ball in his hand.
Leonard did not run with the ball himself, but directly and quickly passed the ball to the Chinese team's half.
Paul caught the ball and got lucky twice. He jumped up and made a sharp BUCKLE!
The United States scored four points in a row!
They are gaining momentum.
On the sidelines and on the bench, the substitutes of the American team were cheering.
Li Nan shook her head with some annoyance.
He shouted at the players on the field: "keep your attention! Be ready to take over! Such a mistake is too wrong."
Wang Fei also felt very sorry.
He feels that the tacit understanding between himself and his teammates has not been cultivated.
Of course, it may also be that in the first quarter just now, I played too unique. I almost didn't pass the ball. I did it all by myself.
Therefore, Ding yanyuhang didn't expect Wang Fei to pass the ball to himself.
Ding yanyuhang runs to Wang Fei.
He said apologetically to Wang Fei, "Wang Fei, I'm so sorry. I didn't understand what you meant just now."
"Nothing, just a ball." Wang Fei said with a smile.
He shouted to all his teammates: "everyone should pay attention and be ready to catch the ball. As long as you feel that you are out of position, you should pay attention to my passing."
The teammates all agreed.
Wang Fei went to catch the baseline ball again.
Paul went on trying to interfere.
Wang Fei was still a clean one. He got rid of him and caught the ball in his hand.
After Zhao Rui served the baseline ball, he went to cover Wang Fei.
But Paul's defense is obviously more experienced. He made a good judgment in advance. Zhao Rui's cover didn't play any role.
Wang Fei still used his fake action to get rid of Paul and came to the front court in clay's follow and entanglement.
When Wang Fei came outside the three-point line, Kawaii immediately rushed over and prepared to attack Wang Fei with clay.
Wang Fei moved laterally and quickly. He got away from Kawaii and clay by two meters. He jumped up and threw a fake pass and directly gave the ball to Ding yanyuhang at a 45 degree angle on the opposite side.
Ding yanyuhang took aim immediately and then made a three-point shot.
After Wang Fei passed the ball, he got rid of it and pounced on the basket.
He saw that Ding yanyuhang's three points were a little biased.
Looks like I can't get in.
This made Wang Fei a little annoyed.
It seems that assists are not so easy to send out.
Under the basket, Andre Drummond has pushed away Zhou Qi and put on the posture of grabbing the rebound.
Andre Drummond is a good rebounder.
He's the man who once won the rebounding king.
Wang Fei rushed near the basket. He judged the landing point of the ball more accurately than Andre.
Basketball hits the basket and pops up.
Andre jumped up and reached for it. Wang Fei grabbed the ball in front of him and took it away.
He is only a little faster than Zhuang Shen.
But that's enough.
Wang Fei picked up the backboard. He passed a pass behind his back and stuffed it straight to Zhou Qi on the other side.
Zhou Qi received the pass without adjustment and jumped up with one hand as a split button.
The ball is in!
Wang Fei breathed a sigh of relief.
Special!
It's really hard.
It's just an assist. It's more difficult than your own attack.
The main reason is that the American team defended too well.
These guys have excellent ability and strong defensive ability.
The long-range projection of our side is not very good, and the attack efficiency is too low, so that Wang Fei can't rest assured.
He can only work hard to rebound and then create an attack under the basket.
"Xiaofei, thank you!" Zhou Qi and Wang Fei slapped and ran to their own half.
And Ding yanyuhang is also a little annoyed.
Wang Fei has passed him two balls.
One missed and the other missed three points.
However, it's nothing to lose an empty three-point shot. After all, the game is too fierce, and the players' mentality can't be as stable as in daily training.
Wang Fei took a look at Ding yanyuhang. Seeing that he was a little depressed, he said to him, "it's all right. Just throw a ball. Just keep refueling."
"Wang Fei, I was a little too anxious to cut the ball just now. I really failed to live up to your trust." Ding yanyuhang said.
"You can't lose confidence because of one or two goals. Later, get the chance to throw the ball and continue to throw boldly!" Wang Fei said.
The United States launched a fast break.
This time, harden personally pushed the ball fast.
Wang Fei continued to be closely guarded by clay and Paul.
Wang Fei came to his own half between entanglement with the two.
At this time, facing Zhao Rui's defense, harden has taken a step back. Jumping with one foot is a three-point shot.
Zhao Rui quickly jumped up the cover.
It's just a distraction.
Harden took advantage of the situation to throw the ball and touched the porcelain.
"Poof!"
The ball is in!
The referee's whistle also sounded.
Zhao Rui's defensive foul!
Harden got a 3 + 1 chance.
Wang Fei shook his head and said in his heart, this is the experience gap.
Harden is capable of making defensive fouls.
Now on the scene, the Chinese men's basketball team is playing a little passive!
