Chapter 345: Strong and brutal killing!
Including Chinese fans, everyone thinks that the Chinese team is just fooling around. After all, FIBA is not the NBA. The NBA's rules favor offense, while FIBA's rules prioritize defense. This is why the score of an NBA game can easily exceed 100, while the score of a FIBA game is only around 70 at most.
The Iranian team completely treated this lineup as a joke. With this short lineup, are they going to give up on defense?
"Aren't you Chinese people very tall? Why did you send a bunch of short guys to humiliate yourself?" Haddadi laughed unscrupulously at Yang Mo who was defending him.
Yang Mo glanced at him with contempt: "If I remember correctly, you didn't score any goals in the first quarter, right? I really admire the shamelessness of you Iranians. You lost everything, and you still have the nerve to laugh at others?"
"You..." Haddadi was immediately furious. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he found that Yang Mo shook his neck and made a boxer's preparation. At that moment, he quickly stopped and swallowed all his anger. In basketball, he might still dare to be arrogant in front of Yang Mo, but in boxing, he had no confidence at all. He couldn't guarantee that his head was hard to withstand Super Yang's critical hit.
Seeing Haddadi swallowing his anger, Yang Mo shook his head in disdain, muttering: A coward without balls.
At this time, Carini had already brought the ball over, and then patiently played positional offense. In terms of defense, apart from Yang Mo, only Sun Yue had certain abilities among the five players of the Chinese team, and the other three were basically sieves.
So, Carini soon found an opportunity and took an open three-point shot... bang!
The basketball missed, and before Haddadi could react, Yang Mo had already jumped up and grabbed the rebound easily. Then he quickly passed it to Chen Jianghua and shouted, "Quick break!"
After Yang Mo shouted, the other three players finally reacted and ran to the front court, but they were still half a beat late. After all, these guys were good at positional offense before, and the sudden switch to running and gunning rhythm was still a bit laggy. Therefore, the other four players of the Iranian team quickly returned to defense.
When Chen Jianghua quickly brought the ball to the frontcourt, it still formed a five-on-four situation. After all, Haddadi's running was too slow.
Chen Jianghua dribbled the ball to the top of the arc and subconsciously went to look for his teammates. Then Careni rushed over to defend him, and Bahrami also quickly double-teamed him... Chen Jianghua was not Yang Mo, so it was very quick... Snap!
The basketball was intercepted directly, and then Carey passed the ball to Haddadi, who had not yet run across half court, with incredible speed, asking him to go for a fast break.
Haddadi took the ball and immediately turned around and rushed into the penalty area... His charging speed was only about 30% of Yang Mo's speed, slower than the aging Magloire, which is why he couldn't gain a foothold in the NBA.
Just as he rushed into the restricted area and raised the basketball with one hand to prepare for a slam dunk, a black shadow rose into the air from behind him. He subconsciously wanted to catch the ball, but it was too late... Bang!
The basketball was pressed hard on the backboard by two hands. At the same time, Haddadi was forced to stagger out of the court under the huge impact and barely stopped by holding onto the basketball rack.
At this time, the whole place was already boiling with excitement... Damn, he actually nailed the board with both hands. Isn't Yang Mo too awesome?
At the same time, Yang Mo, who had blocked the shot, jumped up again after landing and quickly grabbed the rebound. Then he threw the ball across half court and passed it to Chen Jianghua again, shouting, "Try it again, be more confident, I'll back you up."
Chen Jianghua received the basketball, gritted his teeth, and rushed directly to the scattered Iranian team's restricted area. The Iranian team thought that Haddadi's ball would definitely go in, but Yang Mo rushed over at the speed of a 100-meter sprint and hit the nail on the head. It was beyond their expectations! They really felt powerless facing Yang Mo at this time, because the difference was too great.
While they were feeling powerless against Yang Mo, Chen Jianghua had already rushed into their penalty area. Although his speed was still a long way behind Yang Mo, he still had no problem defeating the Iranians who had not yet established their footing.
However, although he successfully rushed into the restricted area, he still lacked the timing. He actually jumped up and prepared to dunk with one hand. It must be said that he had enough courage. However, his IQ was insufficient. Therefore, as soon as he jumped into the air, Bahrami next to him directly grabbed him from the air. And then...Ding!
The referee blew the whistle and two free throws were made without any controversy.
At that moment, the audience applauded Chen Jianghua again, thinking that his damage in the penalty area had contributed to the team.
However, Yang Mo walked over and criticized him mercilessly: "I finally understand why you get injured so often. Because when you rush, you only have the basket in your eyes. If you just stopped for a moment and passed the ball to Sun Yue on the left, Sun Yue would have dunked. In fact, Wang Shipeng on the right was also open. If you passed the ball to him, he would have a good chance of hitting a three-pointer."
"I..." Chen Jianghua wanted to explain something, but he didn't say it.
"You are lucky this time. You met a player with decent professional ethics. If you met other players, they would knock you down. Can you guarantee that you will not go to the hospital?" Yang Mo said impolitely.
At this time, Chen Jianghua had quickly lowered his head.
Seeing this, Yang Mo reached out and patted his head, saying, "But you don't have to be depressed. At least you made their main player commit a foul. Pay more attention next time. You still have more than nine minutes to control the team."
As she said that, she smiled at him and walked to the sidelines .
Chen Jianghua was an introvert, but he still subconsciously smiled shyly at Yang Mo, like a child who had received a reward, and then walked to the free throw line.
At the same time, the CCTV commentator was singing praises for Yang Mo: "Her physical fitness is amazing. Her speed, explosiveness and jumping ability are all top-notch in the NBA. Look, she almost jumped onto the basket when she blocked the shot just now. This is talent! The $50 million contract with New York is definitely worth it. Yang Mo is definitely stronger than before."
Yang Yi said excitedly. The reason for his excitement was that China finally had a genius who could compete with those black people in terms of talent.
At this time, Coach Zhang next to him said excitedly: "Putting aside his physical fitness, look at him scolding Chen Jianghua on the court. Doesn't he look like a leader? He has great leadership ability. I think under his leadership, Chinese basketball will definitely have a brighter future. He is the kind of player who can make his teammates better. He is the Chinese Jordan."
When Coach Zhang mentioned the word Jordan, Michael Jordan, who was watching the live broadcast on the other side of the ocean, turned off his computer after watching Yang Mo's block. He was very depressed. He missed Yang Mo again. He didn't expect Yang Mo to recover so quickly. Not only did his athletic ability not suffer at all, but his explosive power became even stronger.
"Knicks? Isaiah Thomas?" Michael Jordan silently repeated the two names in his heart, full of jealousy.
From the first time he saw Yang Mo, he felt that he and Yang Mo were very compatible, and he decided that Yang Mo was the person he had been looking for. Unfortunately, he missed the draft by a little bit, and someone else got there first. Now? Now someone else has made the right bet again.
The Knicks are going to prosper!
Michael Jordan sighed and strode out the door.
Swish!
Swish!
Chen Jianghua scored two consecutive free throws, which was particularly rare, and scored two points for the Chinese team.
"Sun Yue, you must pay attention to blocking your opponents at all times. I will force all opponents who rush into the penalty area to the left. From now on, it's up to you." Yang Mo said to Sun Yue on the way back to defense.
"No problem, leave it to me." Sun Yue patted his chest and nodded confidently. Although he was still a little unhappy with Yang Mo, he had completely integrated into Yang Mo's system in terms of playing style. He liked playing with Yang Mo. Although Yang Mo also had the aggressiveness of Kobe, he was easier to get along with than Kobe. At the same time, he would give his teammates more freedom to play, unlike Kobe who was as strong as him.
Unknowingly, Sun Yue has been comparing Yang Mo with Kobe Bryant.
In fact, in the hearts of fans, Yang Mo has already been linked to a superstar. They can't wait for the new NBA season to come, because they also want to know what level Yang Mo, who dominated the Asian Championships, will be at in the NBA, and whether he can lead the Knicks to a revival.
In comparison, the significance of this finals is not that important. Because everyone knows that Yang Mo wants to abuse Iran as if it is a game, and Haddadi, who was still talking nonsense before the game, is not even worthy of carrying Yang Mo's shoes.
Back in the half court, Yang Mo thought that Iran would attack the inside more, but in fact, they did not. They still stubbornly shot jump shots from mid-range and long distance. However, they still could not grab offensive rebounds. The 1.94-meter-tall Yang Mo completely dominated the restricted area. Haddadi looked like a puppet, even worse than a puppet.
In contrast, the Chinese team's running and gunning became more and more in shape. Chen Jianghua finally showed some of the character of a point guard, despite seven or eight offensive mistakes, and achieved a better integration between passing and breaking through.
As a result, the firepower of the Chinese team instantly intertwined into a network, with intensive output and instantly throwing the Iranian team into an abyss of no return.
At halftime, the Chinese team was already leading by 25 points.
This made the fans very excited, but Yang Mo was a little unhappy because he said before the game that he would dunk on Haddadi five times. But he didn't dunk on Haddadi even once. There was nothing he could do. Haddadi was too slow. When the Chinese team ran in and the ball went in, he was still strolling in the back half. Although he worked so hard that he was sweating, it still didn't make any sense.
Since they were leading by 25 points in the first half, the Iranian team actually played dead in the second half and sent out five rubbish players. The meaning was very clear, they wanted to surrender and not lose so badly. Unfortunately, Yang Mo has always had a bad reputation for killing prisoners. Moreover, the Iranian team had boasted before the game that they would defend their title, so how could they not kill them?
So, he insisted on playing for 40 minutes, constantly practicing tactics during garbage time. The Iranian coach watched the score gradually widen, his face turned green with anger, he did not expect the Chinese team to be so ruthless.
In the last five minutes of the game, Yang Mo, who had not dunked over Haddadi once, madly abused the Iranian team's basketball hoop with all kinds of big windmills, small windmills, hip turns, and pull-up tomahawks. He was just short of a dunk from the free throw line, which made the fans very happy.
In the end, this Asian Championship, which was known as a fight between dragons and tigers, ended with a score of 98:42. This massacre told the Iranians that their arrogance could only lead to licking maggots in the toilet.
After the game, the Iranian coach said to the media in a very aggrieved tone: "This score is too disrespectful to us, Iran. We had already given up the game, but they still tried their best . It's too disrespectful."
In response to this, Yang Mo said: "The Chinese way of hospitality is to serve friends with good wine and enemies with sticks. You said before the game that you wanted to take our championship, so why should we give you face? You gave up the game because you are cowardly and incompetent. We went all out because we respect sports ethics."
Yang Mo's response was very strong, and she was instantly rated as the strongest core of the Chinese basketball team in history. At the same time, she was also rated as the most domineering athlete in the history of Chinese basketball by fans.
However, Yang Mo did not forget to remain humble despite his domineering attitude. After delivering his strong response, he apologized to Haddadi: "Although we won this game, I am still very unhappy. Because I told Mr. Haddadi before the game that I would dunk on him five times. But I didn't do it. Mr. Haddadi is too smart, he never defended me. In the second quarter, he didn't even return to their half once, and he only played for three minutes in the third and fourth quarters. He defeated me with his wit, and I have to pay the price for what I said. I hope to meet the Iranian team again in the next Asian Games. Mr. Haddadi, I will definitely not let you down."
Although Yang Mo's words were an apology and she was constantly praising Haddadi for his wit, Haddadi still felt a wave of heartache when he heard it: Is this guy implying that I'm a deserter?
