Braised Eggplant with Minced Pork

Chapter 1279 A Fatal Assist (First Update!)

Li Chunjiang saw that Abudushalamu was at a disadvantage and turned to call up Zhou Peng, replacing Abudushalamu.

Tang Tian passed the ball out from a double-team in the frontcourt, but Ding Yanyuhang missed a three-pointer from the outside.

Back on the other end, Wiggins dribbled past Zhou Peng directly from beyond the three-point line.

Zhou Peng's defense was in place, but his speed couldn't keep up after his age increased. He fouled Wiggins as he shot.

Wiggins made both free throws, scoring 9 consecutive points and tying the score at 9-9!

Wiggins is really putting in work tonight!

Seeing this, Tang Tian signaled to press forward in the frontcourt, initiating his personal isolation mode.

The Canadian team's help defense was still a problem, and after several consecutive failures at the start, they didn't dare to come up casually anymore.

Tang Tian accelerated into a sudden stop pull-up jumper.

"Swish!"

The picturesque form sent the fans at the sidelines into a frenzy.

Steady is the only word.

And back on the defensive end, Tang Tian directly had Zhou Peng defend Murray, and he switched to defend Wiggins.

Wiggins's touch was hot, and he forced a breakthrough against Tang Tian's defense.

However, Tang Tian didn't give him a good chance, and his forced shot bounced off the front of the rim.

Yi Jianlian secured the defensive rebound.

The Chinese team launched a counterattack. Tang Tian received the ball and passed it long to Ding Yanyuhang, who threw down a flying dunk for another 2 points.

13 to 9!

The Chinese team regained the lead.

Back again, Wiggins didn't dare to attack with Tang Tian in front of him.

It wasn't that he lacked Mamba mentality, but he knew how fierce Tang Tian's defense was. He was just trying a wave while his hand was hot.

After a series of passes, the ball reached Murray, who blew past Zhou Peng outside the three-point line and drove to the basket for a layup.

After experiencing the passive situation at the start, the Canadian team, led by their dual cores of Murray and Wiggins, began to find their rhythm.

This was also a reasonable change. After all, the Canadian team's talent was there. After the coordination and understanding increased, their strength was still present.

Li Chunjiang didn't arrange for Tang Tian to keep isolating. Winning or losing in the warm-up game was meaningful, but the main purpose was to break in the lineup.

The situation on the court was tense, and the scores of the two teams alternated.

When the game reached five minutes into the fourth quarter, the score was 70 to 68, with the Chinese team leading by a slight margin of 2 points.

At this time, the main players of both teams returned to the court one after another, and both sides entered the final decisive moment.

The fans at the scene watched with concern. After all, in their previous understanding, the Canadian team was no match for the Chinese team.

But basketball games are never an equation where A>B>C, so A must be greater than C.

Not to mention the style of play, the state of each team will fluctuate in each game.

Li Chunjiang was not in a hurry on the sidelines, looking around with his hands sitting on the bench.

The outcome of the warm-up game was not the top priority. On the contrary, this kind of decisive moment was of great significance for the Chinese team to train.

Although FIBA ranked them third in strength, it was more because Tang Tian was there.

The others rarely experienced this kind of moment.

Now that they've experienced it in the warm-up game, they'll have experience and won't make low-level mistakes when they really experience it in the World Cup.

As he was thinking, Shen Zijie committed an unnecessary foul while defending.

Because the number of fouls had reached the limit, Thompson was sent to the free throw line directly.

Li Chunjiang's originally calm expression changed immediately, and he walked to the sidelines and cursed at Shen Zijie.

He wanted to make Shen Zijie remember this mistake so he wouldn't make it easily next time.

With Thompson about to go to the free throw line, Tang Tian called the whole team together in advance.

The fans watching thought that Tang Tian was reminding the players not to foul easily, but in fact, what Tang Tian said to the others at this time was very simple.

"If there's an opportunity, shoot decisively. If you shoot, it will definitely go in."

The teammates didn't know why Tang Tian suddenly said that, but just like Abudushalamu and Ding Yanyuhang would choose to nod at the post-match press conference yesterday.

Tang Tian said it, so they just listened.

Anyway, Tang Tian was not on the same dimension as them in the basketball field. There was no need to understand everything, but listening to him was never wrong.

The boos at the scene were deafening, and Thompson actually missed both free throws!

Shen Zijie made up for his mistake, blocked Powell, and reached out to secure the defensive rebound.

The Chinese team advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and Tang Tian's breakthrough this time was very determined.

The Canadian team's help defense was only a little slow, and Tang Tian rushed into the inside, slamming the ball into the basket over Thompson.

Thompson was completely speechless after being dunked on.

The fans at the scene were completely wet.

Tang Tian exerted his strength at the critical moment, this scene was too brutal.

Ding Yanyuhang was a veteran who had seen this kind of scene a lot. While retreating, he greeted the fans at the scene to make the decibel level louder.

But Wiggins was still the key, a sudden stop jump shot went in again, scoring his 17th point of the game and helping the Canadian team to keep the score close.

The outcome was still full of suspense.

Tang Tian continued to dribble and break through in the frontcourt, and the Canadian team was forced to shrink inside.

Tang Tian made a beautiful behind-the-back pass, and the ball went directly to Abudushalamu at the bottom corner.

Abudushalamu was the most obedient, and he shot directly when he got the ball.

At the moment of shooting, he didn't know why, but this thought flashed in his mind, this ball will definitely go in.

"Swish!"

With a crisp sound, the ball really went in!

Abudushalamu was extremely excited, couldn't help but made a three-point gesture, and then reached out and blew in front of his mouth.

The female fans at the sidelines screamed.

The name of Chinese Kuzma is well-deserved.

This three-pointer greatly boosted morale, and the Chinese team successfully defended the Canadian team's offense on the defensive end.

Shen Zijie grabbed another defensive rebound.

Although his offense was average, his positioning and rebound protection were really good.

The Chinese team played a positional offense in the frontcourt. After Tang Tian called Yi Jianlian for a pick-and-roll, he continued to dribble and break through.

The Canadian team could only shrink in defense again.

Tang Tian made a move to throw the ball backwards, and Alexander tried his best to pounce on Yi Jianlian.

But Tang Tian made a wrist rotation in the air, changing the direction of the backwards pass, directly passing it from the back of his head to the left side at a forty-five degree angle.

Ding Yanyuhang was there.

He didn't hesitate at all, the ball was released, confident and unrestrained.

"Swish!"

It went in too!

78 to 70!

The Chinese team broke the deadlock with two three-pointers in a row!

Nurse didn't call a timeout. The number of timeouts in international games is less than in the NBA, and he wanted to wait a little longer.

However, the Canadian team was a little chaotic at this time, and Murray's three-pointer against Ding Yanyuhang's defense didn't go in.

He turned to the referee to ask for a foul, but didn't get it.

The fans at the scene stood up excitedly.

The opportunity for the Chinese team to win the game was constantly increasing.

Tang Tian dribbled and broke through again.

The Canadian team could only shrink.

But this time, when Tang Tian passed the ball to Abudushalamu again, Wiggins had already returned to defense.

Abudushalamu forced a shot against Wiggins's defense!

In the expectant eyes of the fans at the scene.

"Swish!"

Abudushalamu's three-pointer went in again!

He's gone crazy!

Abudushalamu roared excitedly at this time.

He finally understood a little bit what Tang Tian meant by shooting freely.

Although he didn't know why, his confidence had expanded to the extreme when he shot these two balls just now!

Then, the balls all went in!

Tang Tian also showed joy at this time.

The stalemate situation just gave him a chance to test the death assist.
