One Thousand and Fifty-Eight. The Worst Future, the Best Present!

July 6th is the penultimate match day of the group stage. There are three games today that will determine the first place in the two groups.

The final group stage match between Spain and China, the last group stage match between the United States and Lithuania, and a game between Nigeria and Tunisia.

At present, both the Spanish team and the Chinese team have 4 wins and 0 losses. Whoever wins will be first.

The U.S. team is currently 4 wins and 0 losses, and the Lithuanian team is currently 3 wins and 1 loss. To be honest, there is no suspense. Unless the Lithuanian team can beat the United States by 119 points, even if the U.S. team loses, the U.S. team can still rely on a net victory in the group stage. Locked in first place in Group A with points advantage.

However, there are still theoretical opportunities, which means there is "suspense".

At 3:30 in the afternoon, the match between the Chinese team and the Spanish team started first. After 91 minutes of the game, the Chinese team lost to the Spanish team 59-81.

Sun Ce, Yao Ming, and Yi Jianlian, who were dubbed the "China's Big Three" by mainstream media, sat on the sidelines and watched the entire game; the opposite brothers Calderon and Gasol also took a rest for the entire game.

But the Chinese team still didn't have the strength to fight back. The Spanish team gave Sun Ce and Yao Ming a chance to fight casually, otherwise the score difference might have gone to sea.

Sun Ce saw that Calderon and the Gasol brothers were not playing, and Rubio was unable to participate due to injury. There were still three players, Rudy Fernandez, Navarro, and Ibaka, who were above the main rotation level in the NBA. player of.

Sergio Rodriguez has also played in the NBA, as well as Sergio Ui, the European League MVP and La Liga MVP. Other players are also the top players in the European League, and the worst ones have also been selected in Europe. Best lineup.

There's no way to fight this!

The Spanish team lost in the last World Championships simply because Gasol Jr. was fat and Gasol didn't play well at that time, and the players hadn't been updated yet. The current Spanish team's lineup is incomparable to that of other countries except the United States team. .

…

After losing to the Spanish team, the Chinese team entered the finals as the second place in the group stage.

On the 7th, the last two group matches ended and the rankings were determined.

In Group A, the United States ranked first with 5 wins and 0 losses, the Lithuanian team ranked second with 3 wins and 2 losses, the French team also ranked third with 3 wins and 2 losses but a worse point difference than Lithuania, and the Argentine team ranked third with 2 wins and 3 losses. Fourth, the Nigeria team, which also had 2 wins and 3 losses, unfortunately ranked fifth because of a lower point difference than Argentina, and Tunisia, which had 0 wins and 5 losses, ranked sixth.

In Group B, Spain is first with 5 wins and 0 losses, China is second with 4 wins and 1 loss, Russia is third with 3 wins and 2 losses, Brazil is fourth with 2 wins and 3 losses, and Australia is fourth with 1 win and 4 losses. Fifth, the British team with 0 wins and 5 losses was sixth.

The matchups and game times for the quarterfinals were announced after the last group match on the 7th. All four games will be played on the 9th. The venue for the game has also been changed, to the famous North Greenwich Stadium in the UK. It is one of the best comprehensive stadiums in the UK built at a cost of US$1.25 billion in the late 1990s. When a basketball game is held, it can easily accommodate 31,500 seats. Anyway, that many seats were arranged this time.

The first game is the Chinese team playing the French team, starting at 1 pm.

Then there are the games between Lithuania and Russia, Spain and Argentina, and the United States and Brazil.

The Brazilian team is extremely lucky to be in the top four. It will definitely win against the UK, but to win against Australia... it is all because of Bogut. The entire Australian team was scolded because of Bogut's behavior and they are not interested in playing and just want to go home...

…

…

After losing to Spain, the Chinese team began to prepare for the quarterfinals.

It was finally determined that the opponent was France rather than Argentina. This time it was Deng Huade's turn to skate and kneel down to celebrate.

Although most of the players in the Argentine team are old, most of the players from the golden generation are still there. God knows what strength these old guys can burst out. Relatively speaking, although the players in the French team are younger, there are still Parker and Batum. NBA stars, as well as three NBA players: Turiaf, Diaw, and Seraphim.

But it is relatively easier to deal with, because their other players are very average, far behind the Argentine team. The Argentine team's 35-year-old veteran Prigioni has just been signed by Zen Master to enter the NBA.

Compared with the stars, now the Chinese team is not afraid of the French team!

Being able to meet France in the quarter-finals, which is theoretically the weakest among the top four in Group A, Sun Ce feels that he is very lucky. Although he avoided the group of death in the group stage, he will play against a team in Group A in the quarter-finals... ...It's just that death comes slower, this situation is the best situation.

After determining the opponent, Sun Ce and his teammates conducted training for the French team on the 8th and accepted interviews from major media.

The busy time passed quickly, and on the 9th, the match day of the quarterfinals arrived.

…

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Sun Ce and his teammates came to the North Greenwich Stadium. The huge space here has arranged a training ground for the top eight teams.

When we arrived at the arena, many players went out for a walk. They had an hour of free time to relax and unwind. They were not allowed to leave the south bank of the Thames and could only move in areas with British security deployment. We gathered at 9 o'clock for a pre-match meeting. At 9:30 Eat and start warming up at 10:30.

Sun Ce was also dragged around by Zu Ge who came here to relax and not be too nervous.

But when Sun Ce left, he saw Yao Ming starting to prepare for the game early again.

A few days ago, after defeating Brazil and securing the top two in the group, when Sun Ce and Yao Ming were chatting, it felt that the other party hinted that he would not participate in the World Championships after this Olympics.

Having already won the World Championships, Yao Ming had no hope of participating in the 2014 World Championships. Whether he could play at that time was a problem, not to mention 2016.

Therefore, this Olympics is likely to be Yao Ming's last time to participate in the World Championships...

Sun Ce shook his head and left the stadium with Zu Gee, found Lily Collins and Sun Ce's parents, and went to the riverside for a walk... Leave the future to the future, and play tonight's game first.

Tonight, we must work hard to win the game against the French team. Sun Ce is not doing it for others... Of course, there are also ideas in this regard, but more for himself.

I don't know when I want to enter the top four in the Olympics next time. As strong as Nowitzki is, he only won a bronze medal in the 2002 World Championships. In the Olympics, Nowitzki has never won a knockout match, and his best ranking is seventh.

Without good teammates, no matter how strong you are, you can't stand alone.

Therefore, regardless of the friendship between teammates and friends, Sun Ce will try his best to get the best results in this Olympics. If he loses this chance to compete for the top four, he may never have it again in the future!
