The King of the NBA

When Duan Xiaoran came to the arena, there were already many people in the arena.

The media reporters came early, usually earlier than the fans, but today many balls came early.

When the players from both sides played, the auditorium was crowded with people, and there were many people everywhere. There were only sporadic places where there were no people, which showed that there were so many fans.

"There are so many fans today." Duan Xiaoran muttered.

"Sure, this is a knockout match." The photographer next to him laughed.

Duan Xiaoran nodded and looked at the field. The players from both sides had already warmed up on the field. From the field, there was no fireworks, and both sides were very calm.

However, it is not difficult to find out from the subtleties that both sides attach great importance to this match. After all, it is a knockout match, a game that determines life and death, and whether they can enter the top eight is this battle.

After a while, the warm-up is over.

Players from both sides returned to the sidelines and surrounded the coach.

Gong Luming spread out the tactical board, drew a few times on it, and said: "Later, fight like this, understand? Be fierce, resolute, take the lead, and show our momentum." His face was serious, "This is a It's a game that can't be lost, I don't think I need to say more, get ready to play, come on!"

"Um."

"Never lose."

"Only victory is not allowed."

"come on!"

Everyone spoke one after another, with firm eyes.

Not far away, a group of players from the French men's basketball team surrounded the head coach Pascal Donadieu.

Pascal Donadieu frowned and said in a serious tone: "The opponent is very strong, and we must not take it lightly. Today's Huaxia men's basketball team is no longer the former Huaxia men's basketball team. They can get the second place in the group, which in itself is enough to show Question. Alright, let me talk about the tactic of waiting.”

After some arrangement, the flute sounded, and the game was about to begin.

Pascal Donadieu waved his hand: "Come on."

Watching his players walk onto the court, Pascal Donadieu looked at the Huaxia men's basketball player, his eyes fell on Ning Yi, his pupils couldn't help shrinking, and he said to himself: "Ning Yi's joining not only adds to the Huaxia men's basketball team. A strong core has given the Huaxia men's basketball team a kind of spirit that was not there before. His personal ability can bring limited help to the Huaxia men's basketball team, but this spirit is enough to affect Everyone in the Huaxia men's basketball team. It's a pity that Parker and the others can't come, otherwise it will be much easier to play."

In fact, not only Pascal Donadieu, everyone can feel that the Chinese men's basketball team today is very different from before.

This is not just a transformation of strength, but also a kind of momentum, a kind of spiritual transformation.

Where did this transformation come from? There is no doubt that this is because of Ning Yi. It is his arrival that has brought about this transformation, making the Huaxia men's basketball team stronger, more cohesive, and more impactful.

"Snapped!"

On the court, the Huaxia men's basketball team got the ball first.

The Huaxi men's basketball team played in the usual way today, Wang Zhelin, Yi Jianlian, Ning Yi, Sun Yue, and Guo Ailun.

After the previous group stage, this starting lineup has become more mature. Guo Ailun plays the No. 1 position, but in fact it is more like a No. 2 position. Ning Yi mainly organizes the offense. Sun Yue plays the 2 position, but he is tall and conscious, and plays a great role in protecting rebounds and defending the opponent's perimeter.

Of course, the key is Ning Yi. He is more like a panacea, coordinating several teammates reasonably so that they can play their respective advantages. When necessary, Ning Yi will also attack and use scoring to help the team.

It can be said that the starting lineup of Huaxia men's basketball team is quite different, but it is also full of changes, making it difficult for opponents to defend, because you can't find the focus. It seems that Ning Yi is the key, but the others can score, even if it is Ning Yi does not participate in the offense, but just stands aside to attract defense. With Guo Ailun and Sun Yue on the outside, Yi Jianlian and Wang Zhelin on the inside, they can still play according to tactics.

But if you focus on defending against other people, then Ning Yi will make you regret it.

So after playing so many games, Gong Luming still uses this starting lineup. If it were put in the past, the starting lineup of the Huaxia men's basketball team is usually not fixed and will be adjusted frequently.

Whoosh!

When the ball arrived in Ning Yi's hands, Ning Yi took the ball and tapped it falsely. The opponent was not fooled, and Ning Yi was not surprised. He gestured to his teammates and signaled everyone to pull away. After taking a step, he suddenly accelerated, and his body cut into the inside line diagonally like a whirlwind.

"not good."

"careful."

In the auditorium, some French fans shouted.

Today's starting lineup for the French team is Jeffrey Lavigne (center), Belize Diaw (power forward), Nicolas Batum (small forward), Michael Grabel (shooting guard), Thomas Hu Tell (point guard).

Ning Yi's sudden acceleration shocked the French players. Batum, who was defending Ning Yi, naturally retreated immediately, and Dior, who was on the low post on the right, also subconsciously retreated, forming a pincer attack with Batum.

At this time, Ning Yi flew up and jumped up, Batum and Dior also jumped up at the same time, but Ning Yi didn't make a layup, but threw the ball behind his head and passed it outside the three-point line in the right corner.

"Shua!"

With a soft sound, Yi Jianlian put down her hand and turned back to defend.

This is just the beginning. Gong Luming asked Ning Yi and the others to show their momentum and win the first blow. Of course, a three-pointer is not enough. After dozens of seconds, Ning Yi made an air cut, received a pass from Sun Yue, and took a step forward. , and then jumped up directly, soaring into the sky, before Lavigni jumped up, there was a dunk directly on his head.

Lavigne's expression was gloomy, and his heart was a little hit.

And this is just the beginning of Ning Yi's sharpness. In just over a minute, Ning Yi shot again, facing Batum's defense with continuous cross steps, then retreated abruptly, and made a Harden-style step-back three-pointer, but The ball failed to make the shot, but Ning Yi reacted quickly, quickly passed by Batum, grabbed the basketball that bounced back, and made another violent slam dunk while the others didn't react.

"marvelous."

"nice shot."

In the auditorium, Huaxia fans went crazy.

Ning Yi's two consecutive dunks completely ignited the enthusiasm of the fans, and also brought the morale of the Huaxia men's basketball team to a peak. They launched a wave of violent offensives, like a storm, and the French team was a little at a loss.

Seeing this situation, coach Pascal Donadieu immediately called a timeout, and the opponent said: "Don't worry, don't mess up, take your time and play according to our rhythm. In addition, Ning Yi must definitely Be careful, you can double-team him when necessary, and you can’t let him score casually. Even if you let him score, it can’t be too easy.”
