Chapter 129: Wang Yan blocked the ball and scored the equalizer at the last minute, defeating a team alone!
Chapter 129
No matter who the final champion is, Wang Yan has won everyone's respect.
It is really moving to watch Wang Yan charging again and again, and still scoring points despite being surrounded by the superstars of the Dream Team.
The Chinese fans at the scene all stood up to watch the game and cheered for every wonderful goal scored by Wang Yan!
The Dream Team's head coach, K, couldn't hold it anymore and called another timeout.
Wang Yan’s momentum was too strong, and he had to find a way to curb it.
This timeout is very important to the Chinese players, including Wang Yan.
For the first time, his legs felt tired.
Deng Huade looked at Wang Yan with heartache on the sidelines, but there was nothing he could do. He could only rely on Wang Yan for now and could not count on anyone else.
Wang Yan once again suggested to Deng Huade to make substitutions and bring on a few substitutes.
Wang Yan saw it all because the main players’ physical strength could no longer hold out.
This is the scary thing about the Dream Team. There is no difference between their main players and substitutes, and their defensive strength is very high!
The timeout ends and the game continues.
The Dream Team lineup is James, Chandler, Durant, Kobe and Harden.
The Chinese men's basketball team consists of Wang Yan, Zhou Peng, Yi Li, Guo Ailun and Liu Wei.
The Dream Team was on offense, and Paul passed the ball from the sideline to James.
Facing Wang Yan, James didn't dare to break through directly and called for a screen.
Chandler blocked Wang Yan, and James took the opportunity to rush into the penalty area.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Peng and Yi Li blocked the free throw line in advance and stood in front of James.
James Tank broke through, forced his way between the two men, and knocked them to the ground!
Strictly speaking, it should have been an offensive foul, but the referee hesitated and did not blow the whistle.
James' ears were also perked up, and he was overjoyed when he saw that the referee did not blow the whistle.
Getting to the basket, James swung his arms, trying to do a tomahawk dunk to boost the morale of the Dream Team!
Just now, Wang Yan scored consecutively and suppressed the momentum of the Dream Team.
Just when he was about to dunk, Wang Yan rushed to James' side from somewhere, roared, and swung his fist at him.
James still has enough strength. If it was a normal block, it would be too late and he might have been scored 2+1!
So Wang Yan decided to just do something ruthless.
boom!
James felt his arm go numb, and the ball in his hand was knocked away!
The audience exclaimed almost at the same time.
James lost his balance and nearly fell.
Turning around, he saw Wang Yan standing in front of him like an iron tower.
"How many Wang Yans are there on the court?" This was the first thought in James' mind.
He turned around and scanned the entire place. Yes, it was just this one Wang Yan...
But, he was clearly outside the three-point line just now?
Wang Yan really tried his best. When he was blocked by Chandler just now, he used a fake move to change direction and trick Chandler away.
Chandler is considered very flexible among centers, but he still can't stop Wang Yan. The difference in speed is obvious.
The basketball was hit out of bounds by Wang Yan, and the referee signaled for a sideline ball, giving the Dream Team the ball.
In other words, the referee did not call a foul on Wang Yan, it was a brilliant block.
James was very dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do. Today's referee was very stubborn and would not indulge him.
Just when the audience threw the ball back, everyone was surprised to find that the basketball broke!
When the photographer's camera focused on the basketball, the audience burst into sighs of shock again.
Just now, Wang Yan's powerful diamond hammer actually smashed the basketball into pieces!
What power is this?
The superstars of the Dream Team also gasped when they saw the broken basketball.
O'Neal only broke the backboard when he dunked the ball, but Wang Yan was able to smash the basketball. His strength is truly terrifying!
There was no choice but for the referee to change a new ball and the game continued.
The Dream Team had only 4.3 seconds left on the offensive clock.
The ball was passed to Durant.
Durant's performance just now was actually average, but Coach K still kept him on the court.
Facing Wang Yan's "block shot" just now, Durant was obviously timid.
In the last few seconds, he actually passed the ball to Kobe again.
Kobe is really a professional scapegoat.
With 0.7 seconds left, Kobe takes a shot!
Swish!
It has to be Kobe again, with the buzzer beater!
100: 98!
The Chinese men's basketball team fell behind by 2 points again.
After scoring the goal, Kobe blew his fingers arrogantly, as if he was blowing the gun in his hand, full of domineering!
There are 2 minute and 23 seconds left in the game.
The air seemed to freeze.
The Chinese men's basketball team is attacking, and Guo Ailun holds the ball in the backcourt.
Harden pressed forward frantically, and Guo Ailun almost made a mistake. He stumbled and passed the ball to Wang Yan in a hurry.
Wang Yan received the ball near the center line, and after getting the ball, he dribbled through.
James and Durant quickly double-teamed and chased closely, while Chandler waited in the penalty area.
This situation is simply a siege and blockade!
No other player could receive the same treatment as Wang Yan. When the superstars of the Dream Team saw Wang Yan taking the ball, they all became frightened birds.
Wang Yan was not panicked at all. He first used his body to push Durant away, then dribbled the ball from behind and passed James.
So silky!
Wang Yan brought Irving and Curry's dribbling skills to the extreme.
The fans at the scene exclaimed from time to time!
Is this a move that a 2-meter-tall person can do?
Especially in the Olympic final, facing two superstars, James and Durant, he could do it with ease. He was like a god descending to earth!
Wang Yan rushed to the penalty area and faced Chandler's blockade. He suddenly made a move to receive the ball while looking at the basket.
Wang Yan had made several mid-range shots before, so Chandler jumped up and blocked the shot as if by reflex.
There is no way, if he doesn’t block the shot, Wang Yan can score easily.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yan's ball-collecting action was actually a fake, and he did a "little worship"!
bass!
Wang Yan bent down and slipped under Chandler's arm.
Chandler was in the air, feeling very disappointed.
I was fooled by Dabi...
boom!
Wang Yan made another slam dunk to tie the score!
He dribbled past three people and dunked under the basket as if he was in an empty space!
The Dream Team players were dumbfounded.
These superstars pale in comparison to Wang Yan!
100 flat!
There are 2 minute and 01 seconds left in the game.
The decisive battle is coming!
Dream Team Offense.
This time James did not attack himself, but passed the ball to Kobe.
The Chinese men's basketball team also made adjustments, not allowing Kobe to shoot easily and using double-teaming.
Guo Ailun and Yi Li, one on the left and one on the right, launched a frantic pressuring of Kobe.
But Kobe has long been accustomed to being double-teamed, so he moves calmly and takes difficult shots!
Swish!
Another long two points, hit!
102: 100!
So hard!
The happiest person at this moment was the on-site commentator Coach Zhang.
"Beautiful! Kobe is the only one in the Dream Team who can compete with Wang Yan. What a wonderful game!"
Coach Zhang was as excited as a little kid, dancing with joy.
Yu Jia smiled and said, "Yes, the Dream Team seems to be full of superstars, but when it comes to the critical moment, it is still Kobe who can stand out and score stably!"
Coach Zhang nodded and said, "Yes, this is still the 34-year-old Kobe. If it was a younger Kobe, it would definitely be more exciting!"
Yu Jia sighed: "Although Kobe's body is not as good as when he was young, his experience and the stability of his shots are stronger!"
When the game reached the final moments, the final between the Dream Team and the Chinese men's basketball team turned into a one-on-one duel between Wang Yan and Kobe, which was a bit funny.
Wang Yan nodded in Kobe's direction with a complicated expression.
A little bit of appreciation, and a little bit of provocation.
The two superstars are competing against each other!
The Chinese men’s basketball team attacks.
Wang Yan received the ball outside the three-point line and made a triple threat. James, Durant and Kobe, triple-teamed!
OMG!
Three members of the Dream Team actually double-teamed Wang Yan, it's crazy!
Wang Yan's competitive spirit was aroused. Instead of passing the ball, he pretended to break through, but suddenly retreated outside the three-point line.
Seeing that the situation was not good, James rushed over, but it was too late.
Wang Yan's height and long arms ensured that his three-point shots were unstoppable, and he also used Nowitzki's "One-legged Stand"!
One-legged stand + Novak's three-pointer, there is no solution!
Swish!
Big three-pointer, precision-guided hit!
103:102, the Chinese men's basketball team overtook by 1 point!
The Chinese fans at the scene immediately roared in unison!
This was the first time that the Chinese men's basketball team took the lead since the second half. It was not easy.
It was almost Wang Yan alone who was fighting against the Dream Team!
There are 1 minute and 12 seconds left in the game.
Dream Team Offense.
This time Wang Yan tried his best. He simply took the initiative to defend Kobe and prevented him from receiving the ball.
Kobe rushed left and right, but still couldn't get into open space.
Coach K was helpless and had to call another timeout.
The Dream Team has two timeouts left.
This is the first time I have been pushed to this point.
In previous games, the Dream Team only needed to call two or three timeouts per game.
This pause is also very important to Wang Yan, as it also allows him to relax and recuperate.
The staff of the Chinese men's basketball team immediately ran over and gave Wang Yan a leg massage.
The timeout ends and the game continues.
Kobe finally got the ball because Chandler and James almost hugged Wang Yan, which gave Kobe the opportunity to catch the ball.
With more than 6 seconds left in the offensive time, Kobe faced the double-team of Guo Ailun and Yi Li. He moved sideways quickly, ran to the 45-degree angle outside the three-point line, and took an extreme shot!
It was so difficult that Yi Li's fingers almost covered Kobe's face.
Swish!
It still hits the mark!
105:103, the Dream Team takes the lead again!
There were many Kobe fans at the scene, and they immediately let out a deafening roar.
There are 49 seconds left in the game.
It's suffocating.
However, the Chinese fans' hearts couldn't take it anymore and the situation was critical.
Kobe Bryant waved his fists and roared, his face was ferocious, he also fought with blood!
Wang Yan raised his right hand, signaling his teammates not to panic.
He simply dribbled forward from the backcourt to avoid mistakes by his teammates.
James and Durant pressed the entire court and rushed forward.
Wang Yan turned around and passed the two men.
Others' turning and dribbling only allowed them to move sideways one or two meters, but Wang Yan's turning and dribbling allowed him to move more than three meters away!
Who can keep up with this?
After passing two people, Wang Yan rushed to the baseline, received the ball and shot.
Swish!
There was no way. Wang Yan had too many offensive moves and he used them flexibly, which made the Dream Team players confused and they didn't know which move he was going to use.
105 flat!
Tie again!
It's too horrific!
Wang Yan beat his chest and roared, and his teammates rushed over to bump chests with him to celebrate.
This goal was too crucial. If there was no strong response, Kobe might have taken the game away in the next round.
Coach Zhang has now left his role as a commentator and turned into a fan, and he is extremely nervous.
He no longer danced around like before, but instead kept rubbing his hands, staring at the situation on the field without saying a word.
Yu Jia also had sweat on his head. It was so intense. It all depended on who could withstand the pressure at the last moment!
The Chinese men's basketball team has one more timeout, and Durant is hesitating whether to call one.
The Dream Team has begun a new round of attack.
There are 32 seconds left in the game. In theory, each side has one offensive round.
The ball came into Kobe's hands and Wang Yan stepped forward to grab it.
Kobe is experienced. He turned sideways towards Wang Yan to avoid being intercepted by Wang Yan's long arms, while observing the running positions of other teammates.
Time passed by second by second.
The entire stadium, with more than 20,000 people, was completely silent.
The sound of Kobe's dribbling every time was clearly heard by everyone...
bang... bang...
From a tactical point of view, Kobe must use up all the offensive time and try to leave less time for the opponent.
With 2 seconds left in the offensive time, Kobe suddenly started and rushed to the right.
Wang Yan was prepared and followed quickly, but Kobe took advantage of Wang Yan's shifting center of gravity, stopped suddenly, jumped, and shot backward!
The difficulty is too great.
Even Wang Yan, who won the DPOY, could only slightly interfere with Kobe's extreme shots.
The basketball drew an incredible curve and flew towards the backboard.
Coach Zhang blurted out: "It's crooked..."
Judging from the line, it is indeed crooked, and quite a bit.
Just when the Chinese fans were happy, this ball turned out to be——
chap!
Swish!
Hit the board!
The whole audience was silent for a second, and then Kobe's fans burst into a huge roar.
Unbelievable!
It’s incredible!
107: 105!
Wang Yan saw this and admired it secretly.
Kobe is worthy of his name. How can this ball go in?
Wang Yan had almost blocked all the shooting space, but Kobe still hit the rebound at an incredible angle.
In fact, there was an element of luck involved in this ball.
But for top superstars, this is strength!
The pressure is on the Chinese men's basketball team.
There are only 8 seconds left, leaving the Chinese men's basketball team with a last chance.
Deng Huade was about to call a timeout, but Wang Yan shook his head at him, indicating that it was not necessary.
It seems that Wang Yan wants to take advantage of the opponent's unstable foothold and launch a quick attack.
Zhou Peng served the ball quickly and Wang Yan ran with the ball.
When the game reached its final moments, the Dream Team also gave it their all, and three more people rushed over to block Wang Yan.
Wang Yan used his dribbling skills to the extreme and even passed through the crotch of Durant!
At this time, Wang Yan can still play so fancy?
This kind of psychological quality is unparalleled.
All I can say is that people with great skills are bold!
After passing three people, Wang Yan continued to advance with the ball.
Everyone on the Dream Team rushed towards Wang Yan, ignoring everyone else.
Even if Wang Yan passed the ball to his teammates at this time, the Dream Team accepted it.
Wang Yan passed several people and came to the bottom line.
4
There is not much time left for the attack, only 1 second left...
The Chinese fans at the scene were all nervous.
The timid fans even covered their faces and dared not watch at all.
Beep...
Just when the red timing light is about to light up.
Wang Yan took action!
An absolute buzzer beater!
Swish!
hit!
Almost at the same time, the red timing light came on and the game ended!
107: 107!
