The edge of basketball is compelling

Chapter 867 Team 867, don't think it's safe! (The new book contract has been signed, you can rest assured to invest in a wave)
On September 9, the quarter-finals in the lower half continued.

This day's game also attracted worldwide attention.

Compared with the match between Australia and the Czech Republic, the match between the United States and France is full of direct attention.

After all, their winner is the next opponent of the Chinese team.

All the members of the Chinese men's basketball team also specially watched the quarter-finals in Shanghai.

Before the game, the players of the Chinese men's basketball team and the fans on the Internet were discussing the game.

Unlike what the fans thought, the Chinese men's basketball players did not think that the French team would show off their power to kill the US team, but watched the game with a very normal mind.

Just like Zhou Si said, at this stage, none of Spain, the United States, France, and Australia is a weak team!

Even if it is not the stronger team that can eliminate the opponent, it is not much worse.

Therefore, watching this game with the mentality of preparing for the game will have more insights.

For example, in this game, the US team is strong, but the French team, a European powerhouse, is not weak, and their start is even better than the US team!
If it weren't for the narrow defeat to Australia in the last game, they would not have met the favorite US team so early.

Looking at the lineup on paper, the US team is undoubtedly stronger.

But the French team, which has active NBA players such as Gobert, Fournier, Batum and Ntilikina, is definitely not weak.

Especially Gobert, under the FIBA ​​rule of no defense for three seconds, his inside threat has become huge.

Like Kobe said, 'Team America, don't think you're safe. '

In the first quarter, the French team gave the US team a blow.

Fournier on the French team has maintained his good form since the start of the game, scoring 7 points in a row at the beginning of the game. After two consecutive irons on the US team, Lillard responded with a three-pointer from the outside.

In this year's World Cup, Lillard has successfully squeezed out Curry with his more stable three-pointers and became the point guard of the US team.

In other words, in the international arena, Curry's three-pointers have been unstable.

Plus this is the basket of socialism, ahem...

Closer to home, before the game, because of the previous performance of both sides and the strength of the players, the commentators had been paving the way for this to be a confrontational battle, but after the game started, the fans found that this was not the case.

They seem to be a little slow.

Halfway through the first quarter, the two sides fought 11-11.

It may not be bad for other teams, but for these two teams, it is really not enough.

In Zhou Si's view, all of this was expected.

The US team has been slow to start so far, coupled with Gobert's strong inside threat.

It is not a fantasy for the US team, which has been shooting from the outside without opening the outside basket, to shoot like this.

As for the French team, it is completely caught in the muscle jungle of the US team.

Although the US team has been bumping into each other, the players' personal abilities are really strong, and it is really not that simple for the French team to score.

In the second half, both sides made adjustments.

The U.S. team replaced Meyers Leonard to strengthen outside firepower, while the French team began to increase the frequency of pick-and-rolls and air cuts. The scoring efficiency of both sides has increased.

After the first quarter, the two sides tied for 24.

There is also a lot of discussion here in the men's basketball team.

Among them, Fournier of the French team, who is the most eye-catching on the field, is the focus of everyone's discussion.

In the NBA, although Fournier won a big contract, his efficiency is really mediocre, but he is really accurate in international competitions.

It feels like there is a shot.

In the first quarter, Fournier made 6 of 5 shots and scored 13 points!

It can be said that he alone supported half of the French team's offense.

Zhou Si said, "Normal, normal, Mills can't play in the Spurs yet."

Hearing Zhou Si's complaints, the men's basketball players all laughed.

In other words, Mills is in really good condition, and has become the thickest thigh in the Australian men's basketball team!
After a short break, the game continued. The French team suddenly got a touch and hit two consecutive three-pointers to take the lead. The American team's outside line died down instead.

At this time, Popovich couldn't sit still, and directed the American men's basketball players to hit the basket and bite the score.

Then the two sides entered a tug of war.

Until...Fournier broke the game again.

It is said that Fournier is a true god, and he hit two three-pointers in a row!
At this time, before halftime was over, Fournier had already scored 21 points!
The French team is also 39 to 34 and continues to maintain its lead over the US team.

On the Internet, the French fans are completely excited. If they continue to play like this, this is the rhythm of eliminating the US team!
Then, they started building buildings in forums and social media to cheer for Fournier!
Fournier, who scored 31 points in the last game, is likely to be the chicken head for them to overthrow the US team!

At the end of the half, the French team still led the US team 48 to 43.

Now the French fans are even more excited!
Flipping the dream team can make them blow for a long time!
Even a dream team short of major generals.

During the intermission, Zhou Qi and Wang Zhelin of the Chinese team lowered their heads in shame when they saw the data on the court.

"Gobert, 10 of 9 free throws."

They still need to continue to practice this solid basic skill!
In the third quarter, change sides and fight again!

The players who American fans expected to kill the Quartet did not get better. Instead, because the players worked too hard, they were called offensive fouls and fouls.

On the contrary, on the French team, Gobert, with his long arms, staged an alley-oop dunk with the assist of Batum to boost morale!
Then Batum scored 3+1 himself, directly expanding the contrast to 11 points!
Now the Internet exploded.

This is the rhythm of the US team really going to be overturned!

On the sidelines, Popovich, with his hands folded over his chest, also looked serious.

He also felt the pressure after the game was played like this.

Fortunately, on the court, Lillard stood up again.

He first extended the three-point shot and hit it, then assisted Durant to hit the mid-range shot, and then broke into the penalty area to score 2+1!

His small body really contained a lot of energy!
As long as he is given a chance, he will really be able to give a corresponding return.

Relying on Lillard and Durant's miraculous performance, the US team slowly regained the disadvantage, and even overtook it by 5 points after the third quarter!
Their personal abilities are really strong!
In the last 10 minutes of the decisive battle, Curry also stood up.

He hit a three-pointer at the beginning and continued to help the team widen the point difference, and then Harden also hit a mid-range retreat and directly stopped the French team!

Although the overall integrity of the US team is not as good as that of the French team, their individual singles can always hit, and the situation is completely biased towards the US team!

At the last moment, even Drummond's consecutive big caps on the defensive end directly rejected the French team's counterattack!

In the end, the United States beat France 94 to 87 to advance to the semifinals.

The Sino-US war is staged in advance!
