Chapter 848 Don’t Think You Are Stable

Spain coach Scariolo reacted quickly, reaching out to make tactical adjustments to his players.

Tang Tian plays like a Mamba, which is actually a good thing for the Spanish team.

Let's not talk about how strong Tang Tian is in one versus five. With Tang Tian's current physical fitness, it is impossible to fight like this for a whole game.

Looking back, Mirotic continued to eat Kolanbek in the low position.

This time Gasol blocked Yi Jianlian, and Mirotic turned around and put in a layup to score.

This rookie, who was drafted in 2011 and didn't land until 2014, has already averaged 12 points and 6 rebounds in the second year of his career with the Bulls.

Like Yi Jianlian, he is a high-quality space fourth position, but the difference is that his low post skills are more skilled and rich.

This is where Fernandez's confidence lies. Even if Yi Jianlian is removed, the Spanish team still has three advantages in the matchup.

As the Chinese team attacked, Tang Tian continued to hold the ball.

The defensive position of the Spanish team players is different from before. They all stand on the inside, ready to be double-teamed by five people at any time.

Tang Tian continued to break through, and the Spanish team all shrank, their long arms intertwined into a pocket formation, sealing Tang Tian in it.

If you can't defend yourself against a three-person double team, then use a five-person double team!

Tang Tian... chose to take action.

He made an emergency stop at the moment when the double-team circle was formed.

The ball barely missed Gasol's fingertips and hit the back edge of the basket.

But after bouncing on the rim twice, it still rolled in.

Tang Tian was double-teamed by five people and even made the ball!

"Godfather! Godfather!"

The Chinese fans at the scene went crazy and cheered for Tang Tian in unison.

Be it Gasol or Fernandez! Whether they despise or be confident, it is enough for them to have Tang Tian, ​​and they can win with Tang Tian!

Scariolo is a famous coach. He did not panic and signaled to continue to maintain the defensive strategy.

The Spanish team attacked the frontcourt, and Mirotic's single was double-teamed by Zhou Peng. He passed the ball to Fernandez, who cut in and scored Mirotic, who made a mid-range jumper.

The Spanish team's team basketball is the pinnacle of European team basketball. On the defensive end, the opponents are unable to defend themselves.

Moreover, in the knockout rounds, the attitude and strength of the Spanish players were completely different from those in the group stage.

As the Chinese team attacked, Tang Tian continued to break through. The Spanish team continued to shrink with five players, and Tang Tian also continued to make moves.

Gasol and Mirotic both pounced on the ball very thoroughly, and Tang Tian's shot was seriously interfered with.

"Bang!"

Tang Tian's fourth shot hit the frame!

Scariolo breathed a sigh of relief, Tang Tian finally stopped entering again.

If this can continue, then apart from the American team, which has stronger personal strength, there really will be no team that can stop Tang Tian from scoring.

But before he could relax, Yi Jianlian pulled a green onion under the basket and dunked directly to score!

The Spanish team's double-team was so thorough that it was too late to return to defense!

8 to 4!

The Chinese team started with great momentum!

Looking back, Gasol pulled Yi Jianlian to the high post, Mirotic beat Kolanbek under the basket, and then took a shot to cause the latter's thug.

Tang Tian greeted Li Nan and signaled Zhou Qi to come on and replace Kolan Bek.

In the past, the Spanish team's offensive focus was Gasol and Navarro, but tonight it was uncharacteristically focused on Mirotic.

Scariolo's coaching level has improved a lot in the past four years.

Mirotic made two free throws, and the score on the court was 6-8.

Tang Tian continued to break through in the frontcourt. This time he showed his top passing ability in a five-man double team and passed the ball to Yi Jianlian in the bottom corner.

Yi Jianlian's three-point shot was hit steadily, and the Chinese team continued to lead 11-6!

In the last game against Argentina, the Chinese team's outside shooters only scored 1 goal in their first 12 shots.

But in this game, after that excitement disappeared, their stability also returned.

However, as soon as Yi Jianlian made the shot, the Spanish team responded with a team play, and Fernandez caught the ball and hit a three-pointer.

11 to 9, the two teams were in a stalemate on the score.

The Chinese team's shooters were on the line, but Tang Tian still had no solution. The Chinese team played its best performance.

But the Spanish team's team basketball is also flourishing.

Mirotic can shoot against Zhou Qi, and he can post up in the low post against others. He is also somewhat unstoppable in his hot form.

The two teams fought against each other, and the situation remained stalemate.

After the first quarter, the Chinese team maintained a weak lead at 25-22.

After halftime, the two teams were tied at 48.

Coming back in the second half, the stalemate remained.

After three quarters, the Spanish team led with a slight advantage of 68 to 65.

The two teams were fighting until the last minute.

But in the fourth quarter, the situation on the field suddenly changed.

And the person who made the change happen was Tang Tian.

Tang Tian was replaced at the beginning of the fourth quarter and took a rest.

He scored 35 points and 7 assists in three quarters. He was basically one-on-five throughout the game, which required a huge amount of physical energy.

If he doesn't rest for a while, he will probably lie down on the court from exhaustion.

In the two minutes he was resting, the Spanish team, led by Mirotic, launched a 7-0 offensive, opening the point difference to double digits in an instant.

The Chinese team was forced to call a timeout, and the Spanish team's bench was in a state of excitement.

Without Tang Tian, ​​the Chinese team is just a third-rate team and is no match for the Spanish team.

Now that the score is wide open, even if Tang Tian comes back and the situation continues to be stalemate, they will still win.

Their guaranteed silver medal is already secured!

The timeout time was up, but Li Nan called another timeout.

The operation of exchanging Tang Tian's rest time with a pause came again.

Pause is very precious, but if you don't use it now to give Tang Tian a rest, it will be useless in the end!

2 minutes, plus a 2-minute pause, Tang Tian rested for a total of 4 minutes.

After a timeout, the Chinese team's offense came back.

Tang Tian made a fake three-point shot. After breaking into the free throw line, he saw that the Spanish team was slowing down. He made a quick layup and faced Gasol before scoring the ball!

In the third quarter, due to physical problems, he chose more outside shots, which caused his scoring efficiency to drop a lot.

But after resting and regaining his physical strength, he looked as lively as he did at the start.

Fernandez moved without the ball to catch the ball and went straight to the basket for a layup from close range.

Gasol and Mirotic blocked Yi Jianlian and Zhou Qi respectively. This is a very good opportunity.

But the moment the ball was released, a figure flew forward and caught him!

Tang Tian!

After recovering his physical fitness, his defensive presence has also returned!

After getting the basketball, he even accelerated to pass the pursuit of Navarro and Rubio, and made a chasing three-pointer!

5 to 0!

Li Nan's continuous pauses seemed suffocating, but the effect was very significant.

Gasol assisted near the free throw line, and Navarro scored two points with a layup.

But looking back, Tang Tian responded with a three-pointer from the outside!

Tang Tian scored 8 points in a row and launched an 8-2 offensive, instantly reducing the point difference to 4 points!

Tang Tian, ​​who had recovered his physical strength, was still terrifying!

Team Spain, don’t think you are safe!
