Chapter 906: The Champion Belongs

Before the game started, the US team was really well prepared.

For the Americans, this is a showdown that is not something to be proud of if you win, and a showdown that is irreversible if you lose.

Before the start of the game, Old K and the whole team gave motivational speeches.

Old K is 60 years old this year, and he is not the kind of passionate coach.

Most of the time, he was silent on the sidelines, holding his hands and calmly watching the development of the situation on the court, and making accurate judgments.

But this time, he used the most serious words and said to all the players: "Tonight's opponent is Bruce Lee. Think about it carefully, what will happen if you lose tonight."

Old K's speech was very simple, just one sentence.

You think, you think about it.

Unbelievable, the whole team broke out in a cold sweat.

If you lose tonight's game, or lose to China, or lose to Bruce Lee, can you still live in the future?

The environment in the NBA is getting worse and worse. If he loses to this guy again in the Olympics, the public opinion environment will definitely not be acceptable.

The American media is always watching the excitement and not thinking it's a big deal.

It is normal for the U.S. team to win, but it is big news when they lose, especially when they lost to China.

The old coach K really perfectly captured the psychology of the players.

If you lose to anyone, you can't lose to Li Liang!

You said that in the NBA game, this guy is going around as a thigh, looking for strong teams to help the poor, and getting rich first will lead to richer people, and if they can't beat it, forget it.

In the Olympics, the U.S. team can be regarded as a gathering of elites. To be honest, the opponent Chinese team is at the bottom without Li Liang.

You can't beat this, the US team has become a joke, and by the way, Li Liang has become an Olympic legend.

Thinking about this kind of thing gives me goosebumps all over my body, so I can't even think about it for the whole summer.

Therefore, the US team was excited and morale was high for a while, and Kevin Durant even volunteered to lead the defense against Li Liang.

It's really brotherly love, and it's unequivocal to kill relatives with righteousness.

When the game was about to start, the two sides were about to jump the ball, and many Chinese fans came to the scene.

Originally, there were not many Chinese in Brazil. Basically, in this men's basketball final, all the Chinese who could come to Rio were recruited.

Li Liang started waving towards the sidelines, and the Chinese fans waved their national flags and cheered "Go China".

The U.S. team is confused, are you here to play?

You haven't started playing yet, you've already started posing?

When the game officially started, Li Liang seemed to be prepared for the strength of the American team.

He began to pass the ball constantly at the beginning, and then put his main energy on defense.

Both sides played a little tight at the beginning, and the Chinese team was a little bit hard to move under the high-intensity defense of the United States.

Li Liang was double-teamed by Durant and Thompson.

Thompson tops, Durant follows nearby.

Even so, the two still couldn't restrain Li Liang.

After passing the ball to his teammates twice, and his teammates made mistakes, Li Liang chose to dribble away for the third time, reached the three-second zone, made an emergency stop jump shot, and scored the first point of the game.

For a while, the audience cheered thunderously.

Team USA has yet to score.

It may be that the physical state is too excited and tense, and a good offense needs to be relaxed.

The US team missed consecutive outside jumpers.

The Chinese team began to relax after Li Liang scored the first goal.

Guo Ailun, Yi Jianlian, and even Wang Zhelin dared to fight, make moves, and make moves.

Anyway, if you go all out, this is a fight for honor. If you lose, you will not lose, and if you win, you will earn blood.

In the opening game, the Chinese team actually beat the United States 8:2, giving people hope for a while.

However, the two guns of Durant and Anthony came out in time.

The two each scored a three-pointer and quickly tied the score.

Although James and Curry did not join the US national team this time, with Durant and Anthony, the US team is very stable.

These two people are big killers in terms of playing style and in the FIBA ​​arena.

Anthony has played for the national team for the fifth time and participated in the Olympic Games for the fourth time.

It can be said that Anthony is not the top big man in the NBA, but at the national team level, he is a well-deserved big man.

Anthony's attacking style of play seems like a fish in water on the star-studded US team.

How to organize, defend, and support these tasks will be undertaken by other masters for him.

He can just focus on scoring with his excellent shooting skills.

And in the entire NBA, or the current US team, whoever is most afraid of Li Liang is Anthony.

Anthony has always been a headache for Li Liang in terms of technical style.

Moreover, the two have never had any enmity in the playoffs, and there is no psychological suppression.

So Anthony became more and more courageous in the second quarter, constantly using tentative steps, emergency stop jumpers, and rushing to the basket to score.

His shot is very firm, to bring a lot of confidence to the US team.

The U.S. team should be glad that it was Anthony who came. If James came, although James was stronger, James lost too much to Li Liang.

Maybe in the finals, he will lose habitually and become the legend of China's champion.

Anthony has no such problem at all, and he even has a little psychological advantage over Li Liang.

In the first quarter, the US team led the Chinese team by 3 points at 28:25.

The Chinese team played really well.

Under the leadership of Li Liang, every player is relaxed and natural, without burden or pressure.

Guo Ailun even played a dribble like a butterfly piercing flowers in front of Owen, flying beautifully.

Wang Zhelin even used his footsteps to single-handedly hit Jordan under the basket, and succeeded in counter-basketing on the bottom line.

If it weren't for Durant and Anthony being too clueless, the Chinese team might be able to maintain their lead.

In the second quarter, the momentum of the Chinese team has weakened.

The offensive end is slowly tending to the downwind.

Especially after Li Liang took a break, some old problems of the Chinese team came out again.

Stop the ball after halftime, look and find when passing the ball, and the offense will hesitate.

After all, the gap between the two teams is there.

Without Li Liang, the Chinese team would be the weakest team in the Olympics.

No matter which lineup is put on the US team, it is the strongest.

The US team took the opportunity to play a wave of 12:1 climax, and the Chinese team only relied on Yi Jianlian's free throw to score 1 point.

Gong Luming immediately called a timeout, and Li Liang reappeared.

The so-called snake can't do without a head, Li Liang is the head of the Chinese team.

As soon as he played, the temperament of the whole team was different.

From June, I led the national team to fight in the South and North, from Europe to Beijing, from Beijing to the United States, and from the United States to Rio.

The technical level is still the same, and there will be no improvement in a short time.

But with him, the competitive state of the Chinese team is definitely different.

Changes visible to the naked eye, two teams visible to the naked eye.

After Li Liang returned to the arena, he told his teammates, "Don't look at the score, don't be afraid, we have already won this game, let go and play hard, our goal is not to be ashamed! Don't make the mistake just now, don't make any more mistakes. Hesitate. Better strike than make a mistake."

As a result, the Chinese team let go of their hands and feet again. Under the leadership of Li Liang, they even beat the US team 7:0, approaching the score.

Old K had no choice but to try to have Durant and Anthony on the court.

There must be one on the field as a stable output point to relieve offensive pressure.

At the end of the half, the US team led the Chinese team by 9 points at 54:45.

Only 9 points behind, there are still games to play in the second half.

For the United States, a 9-point advantage is dangerous.

The danger is that once they don't score enough points at the last moment of the game and at the critical moment, the situation will be bad for the Chinese team to see the hope of winning the game.

Li Liang will definitely do whatever it takes to become the Olympic champion.

The old coach K is well aware of this.

Li Liang's performance at critical moments in the past four years is obvious to all.

There is a godlike power in his body, if he is allowed to burst out, it must be destructive.

The 60 points in the finals of the rookie season are still in the history books for people to look up to.

In fact, old K was too cautious, and Li Liang had already run out of ammunition and food.

The rune boost tool in the rookie game is useless when it is used up.

[Lucky Hand] skill is also used.

More powerful props have not been obtained so far.

Many other skills and props do not have the ability to change fate against the sky.

However, as long as there is a chance, Li Liang will not let it go.

After all, a gold medal is always better than a silver medal.

By the third quarter, the US team was firing on all cylinders.

American players finally realized that they really can't lose.

If you lose, you won't be able to hold your head up in front of Bruce Lee for the rest of your life.

Therefore, the players of the US team really showed more strength than they played in the finals, and they also dealt with the Chinese team.

The Chinese team played well, and Li Liang hit three-pointers one after another from the outside.

But the US team really played the ability to the extreme.

In the third quarter, the US team scored 40 points in 10 minutes!

Played a single quarter and beat the Chinese team 40:23.

You know, it is not easy to score 40 points in a single quarter in an NBA game.

FIBA games have 2 minutes less in one quarter, and the pace of the game is slower.

Being able to score 40 points shows that the US team is really in a hurry.

Don't rush, let's beat him to death!

Now it's stable, with a 26-point lead.

Even so, the Americans were still worried. Old K was always standing on the sidelines watching the battle, fearing that Li Liang would lose his temper.

Li Liang didn't have it this time, he tried his best, but he couldn't beat him.

In the last three minutes, the score came to 123:90, and the point difference came to 33 points.

The Chinese team really couldn't beat it, and the game lost its suspense.

At this time, the old coach K sat down and made sure that there was no miracle.

In the end, the US team defeated the Chinese team by a big score of 129:95 and won the Olympic men's basketball championship.
