"The men's basketball players seemed a little out of shape today."

Director Zhang from Tencent Sports frowned and explained while looking at the men's basketball team warming up.

"If they maintain this state in the next game, it won't be that easy for us to win today."

Kefan obviously also discovered the abnormality of the men's basketball players and guessed,

"They must still be under too much pressure!

The opponent is Serbia, a favorite to win the championship, and is burdened with the expectations of 1.4 billion people. It is not difficult to understand that they would do this."

Amid the analysis from major commentators around the world, the scene entered the stage of the appearance ceremony.

When Zhou Si appeared on the stage, the cheers were still familiar!

Although the Chinese team is at a disadvantage as a whole, with Zhou Si here, Chinese fans still believe that the Chinese team can defeat powerful enemies and continue to advance to the semi-finals!

Then came the national anthem session, and once again there was an exciting chorus scene!

Then, the starting lineups for both teams were announced one after another.

For the Serbian team, Jokic appeared in the starting lineup for the first time.

That’s right, when I made appointments with teachers before, I always took a break!

Compared to Zhou Si, he really shouldn't feel too comfortable with strong teammates.

In addition to Jokic, Serbia's other four players are point guard Teodosic, the "King of Europe", and Kings forward Bogdanovi, who averages 20+ points per game and shoots 65% from three-point range.

Qi, 'UEFA Champions League MVP' Timberwolves forward Bjelica, Pistons center Boban Marjanovic.

The Chinese team has not made any adjustments and is still the same lineup.

Before the game, the palace coach discussed with Zhou Si whether to let Zhao Rui, who is more stable in three-pointers, replace Ding Yanyuhang in the starting lineup, but Zhou Si refused.

Although Zhao Rui's three-pointers are more accurate and have support, he is too short, and his confrontation is not as good as Ding Yanyuhang, who has been polished in the NBA. In Zhou Si's opinion, Zhao Rui will be completely defeated by Bogdanovic.

.

After thinking for a while, Director Gong agreed with Zhou Si's view and gave up the plan.

The various arrangements before the game are put aside for the time being, and the game officially begins.

The fans at the scene cheered loudly, but unfortunately the Chinese team lost in the jump ball battle.

Marjanovic, who is 221cm tall, took advantage of his height and wingspan to beat Zhou Qi and win the opportunity for the Serbian team to attack first.

Teodosic controlled the ball from the wing and handed it to Jokic at the top of the arc!

"Snapped--!"

Yi Jianlian's flying dive to steal the ball!

Although the feel of shooting in the warm-up seemed not good, Allen showed his enthusiasm as soon as the game started!

It's just a pity that the ball was knocked directly out of bounds!

But it doesn't matter, Serbia's sideline ball, Bogdanovic received the ball and transferred it to Marjanovic at the top of the arc!

"Snapped--!"

The ball was knocked away by Zhou Qi again!

Marjanovic quickly went back to save the ball!

"Beep-beep-beep!"

The referee's whistle sounded immediately, it was a violation to return to the field!

The scene burst into cheers!

This wave of defense by the Chinese team is really hard!

A Lian, Zhou Qi!

One or two people stepped forward one after another, completely showing their determination to win this game!

Originally, many fans were worried that the Chinese team members would be overwhelmed by the pressure!

Now it seems that their worries are a bit unnecessary!

"Beautiful pressing with the ball!

Serbia's transfer of the ball is very good, and the national team's coaching staff has obviously responded to this!

This move to expand defense from the outside is not a clever one, but it does work!"

Director Zhang explained energetically.

Such men's basketball players really impressed him!

On the court, the Chinese team had an offensive opportunity. The eldest nephew dribbled the ball past half-court and organized in the middle.

In this game, Zhou Si is already ready for a fierce battle, so his physical distribution in this game is very important according to the calculations made by Gong before the game.

From the start, he will serve as an offensive end point rather than an offensive starting point.

On the court, it was Timberwolves forward Bjelica who defended Zhou Si.

Although Bjelica is not well-known in the NBA, he is still a well-known guy in Serbia.

Among them, his highlight moment was being elected as the Champions League MVP in the 2015 season!

Although Bjelica is 2.08 meters tall, he can barely keep up with Zhou Si because of his light weight.

On the court, Bjelica concentrated on observing Zhou Si's every move, trying to predict Zhou Si's movement trajectory.

Then, he still lost Zhou Si's figure during a continuous counter run.

The eldest nephew who had been paying attention to Zhou Si immediately passed the ball to Zhou Si, and Bogdanovic, who was closest to Zhou Si, immediately came to help defend.

Serbia immediately completed the defensive change.

This wave of overall defense is indeed the strongest the Chinese team has encountered so far!

However, Serbia's overall defense is strong, but it can't stop Zhou Si at all.

On the court, after receiving the ball, Zhou Si deceived Bogdanovic with a shooting fake, then stepped back to the right and quickly took a three-pointer!

Zhou Si's movements were coherent and fast, and Serbia could not make any other predictions.

"Shua——!"

With a crisp sound, the basketball hit the net!

0 to 3!

Zhou Si once again scored first blood for the Chinese team and stabilized the morale of the army!

Just like fans on the Internet said, "Even if Jokic is right, we only have Zhou Si with the matchup advantage, but it doesn't matter, that's enough!"

Serbia's attack, Jokic's support from the top of the arc, the Chinese team still pounced very fiercely!

In terms of technology, they are indeed not as good as Serbia, but they are not inferior in terms of spiritual self-consciousness because they are completely willing to fight!

"Wow~"

Jokic hit a high lob to Marjanovic who was about to reach the inside position.

Then, although Marjanovic turned his back.

"boom--!"

"Beep-beep-beep!"

The sound of Zhou Qi being pushed to the ground and the whistle sounded at the same time!

The referee on the sidelines also made a gesture to signal Marjanovic to commit an offensive foul.

Marjanovic held his head helplessly for a while, then chased the referee to explain that he had not used any force at all just now!

The referee didn't listen to his explanation at all.

He could clearly see that the ball just now was an offensive foul.

Zhou Si and Yi Jianlian pulled up Zhou Qi who caused the offensive foul.

On the sidelines, Director Gong also had joy in his eyes.

Compared to Serbia, their weakest point is the inside line.

When the 260-pound Marjanovic sat inside, let alone Zhou Qi, even Zhou Si had no good way to deal with it.

Therefore, their countermeasure was to put this 2.11-meter-tall giant into a foul crisis.

Judging from the scene, their strategy seemed to have a good effect.

In the backcourt of the Chinese team, the eldest nephew still dribbles the ball through half court.

Zhou Si once again used the cover and his perfect running position to get rid of Bjelica.

Serbia's defense rotated quickly, and this time it was Jokic who came to help defend.

Zhou Si did not rush to take action, but dribbled Jokic one step away to attract Bjelica's double-team and then hit the ground to Yi Jianlian, who was open outside the three-point line.

Yi Jian connects the ball and shoots directly!

"Shua——!"

Another three-pointer!

0 to 6!

The Chinese team started with great momentum!
Chapter completed!
