It was natural for the Chinese team to reach the quarterfinals, and not many people were surprised.

Liu Mang scored 60 points, which is quite shocking, but when you think about it, South Koreans can score 54 points, and Liu Mang can score 60 points, which is not too unexpected.

But for Chinese fans, it's very different.

The stable performance of Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi, and the national team's pitchers were able to seize opportunities well with the restraint of the two superstars inside and outside, giving the Chinese team the strength to guarantee the top eight.

Then, Liu Mang can still explode!

There is hope for a rematch!

The Chinese team's opponent in the next round is the winner of the African team Nigeria, which is second in Group A, and the United States' Puerto Rico team, which is third in Group D.

Nigeria, without Liu Mang, Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi can lead the team to beat Nigeria by 30 points.

Puerto Rico was easily defeated by the Chinese team in the group stage.

There is basically no suspense about the semi-finals. Chinese fans are waiting for the semi-finals to start on August 29!

Chinese fans are already thinking about who their opponents will be in the semi-finals on August 31st or September 1st.

…

"Uncle, look, there are posters of you in Japan. It's so amazing... um..."

Liu Mang pointed at the little Loli's head with his index finger to prevent her from getting close: "Dina, what do you want to do?"

"Of course I'm blowing a kiss of love to uncle..." the little loli pouted and said.

"Is it necessary to blow a kiss with love?" Liu Mang pinched the little Loli's face and said.

"Anyway, we can't kiss her!" the little Loli snorted, "When Dinah grows up and becomes a beautiful woman, my uncle wants Dinah to kiss his face, but Dinah won't even want to, hum!"

Seeing the little Loli's arrogant look, Liu Mang couldn't help but... pinched the little Loli's face crazily.

It feels great to break the record of South Korea in the World Championships!

Just as Liu Mang saw the opinions of domestic fans on the Internet, the Chinese team is also targeting the semi-finals.

Nigeria was just lucky enough to defeat Serbia and Montenegro and finish second in Group A. Puerto Rico is no match for the Chinese team. What the Chinese team is now waiting for is the semi-finals.

On the 27th and 28th, the Chinese team will have two days of rest. On the 27th, they will have a rare holiday. They can walk around the Tokyo metropolitan area with the company, protection, and translation of the team staff.

I've been in Japan for more than half a month and haven't been able to go shopping, and yet I've achieved such good results. It's rare for people in the Blue Association to feel guilty.

Today, Liu Mang went to Tokyo with his parents, San Niu, and the two boys. When they came to the Tokyo Tower, the little lolita asked Liu Mang to bend down and tell Liu Mang something. She secretly wanted to kiss Liu Mang on the face, but Liu Mang accurately predicted it.

The sentence was passed, and I escaped a disaster...

A small country also has its advantages. Japan's geographical resources are basically utilized to the extreme. Most cities are connected. The Shinkansen can reach the next city in ten minutes at most, so you can visit many places in one day.

Liu Mang's parents brought a translator and went to the sweet world of two. Liu Mang was a bitch. Levia and Alexia each had to take care of a child, so they stayed in the coffee shop and did not go out to hang out.

, Liu Mang can only take the little loli shopping.

"Damn uncle!" After the little Loli was ravaged, she rubbed her face and said, "Uncle, let's go up!"

Having become accustomed to being abused, the little Loli took Liu Mang's hand and walked forward.

Liu Mang, like most Chinese men, doesn't like tourist attractions very much... he followed helplessly.

Little lolita... Girls are like that. Shopping is too easy. Liu Mang feels more tired today than playing games...

However, seeing that the little Lolita who was about to turn 12 years old in less than four months was already almost 1.6 meters tall, Liu Mang felt so heartbroken that he had less and less time to abuse the little Lolita.

Thinking about Levia's height of 1.79 meters, the little Loli may be taller than Levia at the age of fifteen or sixteen in two or three years...

Liu Mang was even more heartbroken and couldn't eat, sleep or abuse Loli...

Fortunately, I have a precious daughter who will be abused in two years!

Liu Mang's mood suddenly improved a lot. The little loli looks good and can be used as a vase when he grows up. There is also a spare little loli that he can abuse!

…

…

On the 27th, Liu Mang and his teammates took a rare break and took a day off, allowing the families of the national team players to have a day to travel in Japan with their loved ones.

On the 28th, the Chinese team resumed training, mainly using open three-pointers. The game against Serbia clearly demonstrated the importance of the four outside shooters Guo Shiqiang, Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, and Li Nan. Liu Wei, Zhang Jingsong, and Sun Yue each only played three-pointers.

After 3 minutes, they are more versatile, but there is nothing outstanding about it. For example, when Liu Mang plays in singles, the opponent dares to flank Liu Mang more after they miss an open three-pointer or a mid-range shot.

Although the Blue Association has many problems, it is not without people of insight. There are also some people within the system who are quietly making positive contributions to Chinese basketball. Director Zhang, Xu Jicheng, Su Qun and other people who have positions in the Blue Association are

He also has a certain say, and Yao Ming has a huge say. Yao Ming was the only national team player who did not go out to relax yesterday. He, Silver Fox, and Director Zhang discussed matters with the team officials of the Blue Association.

Unlike Liu Mang, who has the privilege of returning to the team late and not playing in Asian games, Yao Ming is a player within the system. He participated in the Asian Championships and Asian Games and actively participated in the decision-making of the Chinese men's basketball team. Yao Ming is even more

With his vision, he felt that when Liu Mang was still playing, the selection of talents for the national team should focus on pitchers and defensive players. At least in the Chinese men's basketball team during Liu Mang's era, the outside line should focus on this aspect, and other players should focus on this aspect.

Almighty, even someone like Sun Yue who can theoretically play from position one to position four is still N dimensions behind Liu Mang.

As for whether it can be successful and whether the Blue Association can agree to the suggestions of Yao Ming, Silver Fox and Zhang, it depends on the results of this World Championship.

Chinese officials have always liked Gao Zhiyuan. Last time they were in the semi-finals, this time they actually called for the guaranteed semi-finals. The good thing is that the Chinese team won the first place in the group stage. Before the semi-finals, they will not compete with the other three teams that ranked first in the group stage.

We met, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

On the afternoon of the 28th, after training in the morning, the Chinese team came to the Saitama Super Arena in the afternoon to watch the game between the US team and the New Zealand team.

Five places for the quarterfinals have been announced. China, Argentina, Greece, Turkey, and Spain have advanced to the quarterfinals.

The remaining three games are the United States playing Slovenia, Italy playing France, and Nigeria playing Puerto Rico, all of which will be played this afternoon.
Chapter completed!
