Chapter 1282 I Don’t Know What the Suns Are Waiting For?

At the game, the Spanish head coach was in a difficult situation. He had no players who could defend Li Ba, who was in the No. 1 position. Although Li Ba did not have a three-pointer, he had just asked Gasol to defend in the high position, which had already proved to be ineffective. So he could only let Gasol stay at the basket, but in that case, Gasol would have to bear the impact of Li Ba.

Spain attacked.

Gasol received the ball and singled out Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian began to train defense with Li Ba in 2004. He is a very hard-working person. He also got the maximum salary in the Lakers with his offensive and defensive style. He was very good at defending Gasol on the outside. The latter made a strong shot and missed. Li Ba blocked the position in advance and grabbed the rebound.

Li Ba dribbled down quickly and played a fast break.

In the inside comparison, Yi Jianlian was faster than Gasol, and he was faster than Gasol. The overall speed of the Chinese team had an advantage, which was also the basis for playing a fast break.

The two inside players did not keep up. How could the Spanish outside line stop Li Ba's crazy impact?

Fernandez, the small forward, wanted to commit a foul, but he was not in a stable position. Li Ba changed direction and knocked him away, then rushed into the empty paint area.

Fernandez felt like he was hit by a heavy truck. With a weight of only 84 kilograms, he had no resistance at all. He flew a distance in the air, then fell heavily on the floor, hit the floor with his back chest, and slid back at least three meters.

"Oh!" The whole stadium exclaimed.

"Bang!"

At the same time, Li Ba dunked with one arm and hit the Spanish basket again.

"Cough cough..."

Fernandez, lying on the floor, was hit by a stitch in the side, coughing non-stop, and his head was also flashing with stars. He fell into a dizzy state, and the referee immediately stopped the game.

"My God, Fernandez played in the NBA. He was a rookie selected by the Suns in 2007, but was traded to the Trail Blazers in the end. He should know the ability of the hammer. It is difficult for top guards like Kobe to foul the hammer, let alone him. Who gave him the courage to block the hammer? Unbelievable!" Yu Jia said in surprise.

"If it was a professional game, he would not fight so hard, but in the national team game, he would fight harder." Sun Zhenping said.

In the audience, Kobe shook his head and said, "The hammer must have lied. He is not injured at all. Does he look like an injured person? This guy, nothing he said is true."

James did not speak. He felt that the gold content of the ring on his hand was not enough.

"I can be sure that he has not been injured at all. The way he uses his left knee is not like an injured person at all."

Jordan said in a very affirmative tone at this time.

"Then, the American team?" O'Neal said in surprise.

"It's hard to get the title of the Dream Team back." Jordan shook his head.

O'Neal thought about the inside line of this American team, forget it, it's not very difficult, it's just that there is no chance at all.

The referee gave Li Ba a technical foul, which was considered to balance the atmosphere on the court, but the two points were still valid.

In fact, there was no atmosphere to balance. How could Gasol and Gasol go to trouble Li Ba? Jose Calderon is also an NBA player, and he dared not to.

This ball is also a microcosm of this game.

Li Ba kept playing fast breaks throughout the game. The speed of the Spanish inside line was too slow, and the outside line had no power to resist the strong impact of Li Ba. At the end of the half, 30:51, the Chinese team led by 21 points.

At this time, Gao Yuanyuan had not received a call from the Suns.

No matter what Li Ba's attitude was, it meant that the Suns had given up signing, which meant that she could contact other teams.

Dolan was the first person to contact her, so she was ready to contact him first, and at this time Kupchak's private plane had not taken off yet, and he was still on the way to the airport.

In the end, 62:90, with a great advantage in the inside line, China won by 28 points.

Apart from the Chinese team, Spain is the strongest team in Group B. After defeating the Spanish team, the Chinese men's basketball team was in high spirits and began to sweep Group B.

But that was a matter for the future. After the game, the domestic fans were already boiling.

"In 36 minutes in a single game, he scored 26 points, 17 rebounds, 3 assists, 6 steals and 7 blocks. Is this the injured Hammer? This is definitely the complete version of the basketball god Hammer!"

"The Chinese men's basketball team will rise and strive for the fifth consecutive championship!"

"If Hammer doesn't win the championship in this state, the American team won't believe it."

Countless domestic fans shouted the slogan of winning the championship after this game.

At the scene, Li Ba was surrounded by the media.

"Hammer, has your left knee meniscus fully recovered?" asked the loudest reporter.

"Of course, my meniscus was only torn a small crack, less than one centimeter, and it has fully recovered." Li Ba said nonsense.

"Hammer, will you return to the Suns?" said a Phoenix reporter.

Li Ba said with some regret: "The Suns have not contacted me yet, I am very sorry. In fact, the Suns know that my injury is not very serious. I don't know what the Suns are waiting for."

"What?" The reporter was stunned.

Li Ba was mentally prepared to leave Phoenix, because Gao Yuanyuan had contacted him at the end of the half, and he knew that the Suns had not contacted him.

So when facing the media, Gao Yuanyuan asked him to take the initiative, so as to reduce the pressure he would face in the future.

In fact, he was also very depressed and a little unhappy. Sarver actually gave up the contract for $100 million?

$100 million a season, can't he make this money for the team?

Even compared with the original contract, it was only tens of millions of dollars. This amount of money, just the ticket and his jersey income, plus the commercial sponsorship from China, can make back the investment.

When he said this to the media, TNT also broadcast this segment across the United States. Not only countless Phoenix fans saw it, but also Sarver, old Buss, Dolan and others.

"Sarver doesn't want to sign the Hammer? Is he crazy?"

"Think about the time when the Knicks tried to snatch Jordan, the Bulls owner directly offered Jordan a salary of 60 million for two years. At that time, other superstars only had an annual salary of about one million. The gap was 30 times, which is also the gap between Sarver and the Bulls owner."

"Jordan's salary in the 1995-1996 season was 3 million US dollars, and it increased tenfold from 1996 to 1997. At that time, the Knicks and the Bulls really spent a lot of money. Now the Suns owner is too timid!"

"We want the Hammer! Sarver should leave."

Phoenix fans began to make noises.

At the same time, the old Buss and Dolan and other owners were in a completely different mood. They knew that they really had a chance to pursue the basketball god Li Ba.
