A day later, the quarter-finals begin and the quarter-finals will end on the same day, meaning half of the teams will be eliminated in one day.

For the quarter-finals, Chinese fans are full of anticipation and a little nervous.

Southern Province.

Jiang Feng and Wang Lei were sitting next to each other, as well as Peng Jun, a little fat man. After graduating from high school, everyone divided things up and down, but the little fat man Peng Jun was studying in Southern Province, and he was not a player, so he was with Jiang Feng and Wang Lei. I don't compare myself to myself, but I get along with them very casually.

Of course, now the little fat man has become a big fat man.

"Look, we will definitely win this game today." Fatty waved his chubby palms and spoke eloquently, "I tell you, it's the Argentina team..."

"Fatty, stop talking nonsense." Wang Lei frowned and shouted.

"Shut up." Jiang Feng was more straightforward.

This also requires you to explain to us, we are professional players.

Fatty smiled embarrassingly and closed his mouth, but he couldn't hold back after a while: "Wang Lei, do you think we can definitely win this game? Before, our best result was to qualify for the group and enter the top eight, but every time we were in the We were eliminated in the quarter-finals, but not this time, right?"

Wang Lei smiled helplessly, but still replied: "Don't worry. This time is different from before. We didn't perform well in the group stage before, and in the quarter-finals we were all against strong teams, so every time we lost. But this time we are the first in Group B, and we are against the fourth in Group A. Of course, Argentina is not weak, but we have to be stronger.”

Although Wang Lei is not sure how far Qin Hao and the others can go, after all, after entering the quarter-finals, every team should not be underestimated.

However, in the quarter-finals, he is still full of confidence in the Chinese men's basketball team.

At the same time, countless Chinese fans are also paying attention to this game. The Chinese men's basketball team has participated in the Olympic Games before, but only three times they have qualified for the group, and they were all eliminated in the quarter-finals. The best result in history is the eighth name. Today, it will decide whether the Chinese men's basketball team can break the curse and rush into the top four.

......

London.

The quarter-finals kicked off, China vs. Argentina.

The game has already started, and the Chinese team is still the regular starter.

Argentina sent center Luis Scola, power forward Juan Gutierrez, small forward Andres Nocioni, Manu Ginobili, and point guard Facundo Campa. Zuo.

This lineup is actually not bad. Ginobili, Scola and Nocioni are all NBA players. Gutierrez and Campazzo played in the Europa League and performed well.

It is worth mentioning that in the Argentina team, Scola and Yao Ming are teammates of the Rockets, while Nocioni played in the 76ers before. Last season, he was teammates with Qin Hao.

Of course, playing on behalf of the national team at this time is the opponent.

After only a few minutes in the first quarter, the Chinese team completely had the upper hand. The combination of Qin Hao and Yao Ming was still strong, and there was nothing for the Argentina team to do.

On the defensive end, the Argentine team could not prevent the Chinese team.

On the offensive end, the Argentine team mainly relies on Ginobili. Although Scola's strength is not bad, it is Yao Ming who is facing him today. The two know each other very well, and Yao Ming's height and strength are in Above Scola, completely occupy the position advantage.

In a few minutes, the Chinese team was already leading by 8 points.

By the end of the first quarter, the Chinese team led by 7 points.

However, in the second quarter, Ginobili broke out suddenly, hit two consecutive three-pointers, and then completed a steal, assisted his teammates to score in a quick counterattack. Under his leadership, the Argentine team launched a wave of violent counterattacks. Catch up with the score and overtake by two points, forcing the Chinese team to request a timeout.

After coming back from the timeout, Qin Hao took the lead and showed his strength outside the three-point line. He also hit three-pointers. Yao Ming also scored goals in the inside by relying on his height...

For a time, the Chinese team overtook the score again and gradually opened the difference.

After the third and fourth quarters, the Chinese team always took the lead. Until the last few minutes of the fourth quarter, the Argentine team wanted to counterattack, but was unable to succeed.

"drop......"

When the whole game ended, the Chinese team defeated Argentina 84:76, won the quarter-final victory, and successfully entered the semi-final.

......

Domestic, Southern Province.

"It's great." Fatty jumped up and yelled, "We've reached the semi-finals, and finally we're no longer just in the quarter-finals, and we're finally no longer in the eighth place."

Looking at the excited Peng Jun, Wang Lei and Jiang Feng did not shut him up this time, and they both showed happy smiles, happy for the victory of the Chinese team.

The result of this game is not surprising. After all, the strength shown by the Chinese team in the previous group stage is obvious to all, but for Chinese fans, they have been looking forward to this moment for too long.

On the field of the Olympic Games, no, not only the Olympic Games, even if the World Championships are included, the best result of the Chinese men's basketball team before is only eighth, this is the first time that it has reached the top four.

If it is a milestone to "qualify first in the group", then at this moment, the Chinese men's basketball team beat Argentina and reached the semi-finals, which is another new achievement after the milestone.

And, this is not the end, they will continue to go, there will be semi-finals and even finals...
