Chapter 1286 Meitu: I only Know Tang Tian in the Chinese Team
After Tang Tian steals the ball, he gallops forward.
Bonitka used all his strength to chase and defend.
He is probably the only one in the Polish team who has not lost his fighting spirit.
But Tang Tian's speed was too fast, and he didn't catch up with all his strength, so he could only watch Tang Tian sprint.
Tang Tian rushed to the three-second zone on the frontcourt and soared into the air, smashing the ball into the basket with a big windmill.
The point difference has reached 25 points!
Taylor stopped shouting, and the Poland bench was dead silent.
After these two failed throw-in tactics, the morale of the Polish team can be said to have reached the bottom, and there is no possibility of rebounding at all.
Taylor's original intention was to regain morale for the second half, but now it's backfired, and the second half basically doesn't have to be played.
In the end, the Polish team had no fighting spirit in the second half, and the Chinese team also beat the Polish team 82-50, ushering in the first victory of the World Cup.
Tang Tian played only three quarters in his national team debut, contributing 19 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 3 steals.
Ding Yanyuhang 15 points, Yi Jianlian 14 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks, Abdul Saramu 9 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, Zhai Xiaochuan 8 points and 5 rebounds, Wu Qian 6 points.
Fans also ushered in a big carnival on the forum and Weibo after the game.
"Poland coach Mike Taylor: We have a good chance of winning."
"I laughed so hard, the Polish team's two sideline kicks in the first half were suffocating!"
"Kulig's undercover identity is confirmed, Chinese center forward!"
"Poland is really ridiculous. The team's top player Lampe will not play because he will play in the CBA in the new season, and Kulig is so undercover. Taylor: I am too difficult!"
"And Ponitka and Roster, these two guards made 5 of 25 shots in the game, and almost missed our basket!"
"They managed to get our attention! I know them!"
"I think Taylor is also cheated. He missed a sideline ball, called a timeout and then served the second time. The server and tactics will not be changed!"
"Actually, it's okay. To put it bluntly, competitive sports is the original sin. Kulig's mentality was obviously broken at that time."
"Excellent! This is the strength of the Chinese team. There is a 50-50 Chinese team with Tang Tian and the American team!"
"We must win the championship!"
...
Because in the afternoon game, Argentina beat Nigeria 87-72.
Considering the relationship between the winners and losers, regardless of whether Argentina can beat Poland in the last game, they have already secured the first place in the group.
The last group match between the Chinese team and the Nigerian team will directly become a situation where whoever wins will qualify.
In other words, the last group match was a life-and-death battle between the two teams.
Considering the performance of other teams in Asia and Africa, whoever loses this game may lose not only the round of 16, but also Olympic qualification.
Because according to the new competition system of the World Cup, the team with the best performance in each state will directly qualify for the Olympic Games.
On the Asian side, Iran's unexpected victory over Brazil has basically secured a place in the top 16.
The same is true for Cameroon in Africa.
Therefore, this game is too important for both sides, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there is a difference between heaven and earth.
But the Chinese fans are in a good mood.
In the battle against Poland, the Chinese team played a world-class performance, which gave them sufficient confidence.
Although Nigeria is stronger than Poland, it also lost to Argentina by 15 points.
And the Chinese team now has Tang Tian, which is completely different from when they played against Argentina.
So they are confident that the Chinese team will win two days later.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the match day between the Chinese team and the Nigerian team.
There are still more than three hours until the start of the game.
Tang Tian and Olsen took a video.
Downs was basically fine, but for safety reasons, they would wait until Tang Tian left before coming back.
With nothing to worry about, Tang Tian took a taxi to Wukesong early.
When he arrived, he discovered unexpectedly that Yi Jianlian had arrived at the arena at some point and had already started shooting training.
Looking at Yi Jianlian whose clothes were mostly wet, Tang Tian also felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
Speaking of which, because of his suggestion, Yi Jianlian changed his style of play and became a rare 3D insider in the league, and he is still the starting power forward of the Nets.
But in fact, suggestions are suggestions. Yi Jianlian's survival until now has a lot to do with his own efforts and self-discipline.
Not to mention anything else, it is very rare for a 35-year-old to be able to start in the NBA, let alone still be able to fly to the sky and escape.
When Yi Jianlian saw Tang Tian coming during training, he stopped training and walked over to say hello with a smile.
He is grateful to Tang Tian. If it wasn't for Tang Tian, he might have already faded out of the NBA.
The two met face to face, and then both started training separately.
Both practice three-pointers.
After practicing for a while, Tang Tian found that Yi Jianlian felt very good today.
You must know that this is Yi Jianlian before touching his head.
It seems that as the game progressed, his state gradually improved.
After they trained for more than an hour, other members of the Chinese team also arrived at the arena one after another.
Seeing that the two big men of the team were sweating profusely from practice, they didn't say anything, and started to warm up with their heads down.
Self-disciplined people often make those around them self-disciplined.
After some time, fans came to the arena one after another, and the Nigerian team also came together.
Their expressions looked more relaxed.
Nigeria is a relatively poor country. It is said that the Basketball Association borrowed money from the team's NBA players Aminu and Okogie for the World Cup.
But this does not affect their mood.
Football in African countries is more popular, and the basketball atmosphere is average.
There are fewer fans, and the pressure on them is not so great.
When the training was about the same, there were reporters from both sides to interview one after another.
"Of course we want to win, we want to make it to the Olympics for the national team, so we can expand the influence of basketball in the country."
Aminu, Tang Tian's former teammate during the Pelicans period and the leader of the Nigerian men's basketball team, replied after the reporter's question.
In addition to Aminu, the future star of the Nigerian men's basketball team and the second-year player of the Spurs, Chimeziye Metu, was also interviewed.
"We're playing our own style of basketball, and we stick together and trust each other, and that makes us unstoppable."
When asked about the key to the game and his own advantages, Metu replied.
It can be seen that he is still very confident in tonight's game.
"Which players do you know about this Chinese team?"
The reporter asked Metu.
"Don, we all know him, he's the best basketball player on the planet."
As a second-round pick, Metu didn't have many opportunities to play for the Spurs last season, and he played in the Development League most of the time.
But Tang Tian was born in the Spurs, and he must know where his strength lies.
"Then?"
"Then? Gone."
"Yi Jianlian and Ding Yanyuhang, they are both NBA players, don't you know them?"
"I never heard."
After thinking for a while in his mind, Metu nodded in confirmation.
