Chapter 787 Unless there is a miracle

The giant was not knocked down by the opponent, but fell in front of the injury.

In the previous few games, Dayao's continuous playing time and playing time were limited, so the problem of foot injury did not appear. But entering the knockout stage, Dayao's playing time has continued to increase. When he played against Turkey and Serbia, his playing time has reached 30 minutes, which is beyond the time range that his body can bear.

When facing the US team, Dayao was facing off against the NBA's starting-level insiders. Although Chandler and Love were not the top centers in the NBA, they were also at the level of first-class centers. This high-intensity confrontation finally made Da Yao Yao was overwhelmed.

Seeing Dayao's painful expression, the Chinese team's bench fell into a dead silence, which was obviously the last thing they wanted to see, and thinking of the big surgery he had undergone before, Almost everyone realized that maybe today's Dayao would retire because of this.

For the Chinese team, this can be said to be a world-shattering event.

For the US team, Krzyzewski breathed a sigh of relief.

The Dream Nine team did not have an outstanding center forward, so Krzyzewski was forced to use a small lineup. It can be said that the Dream Nine team is most afraid of encountering the world's top center forward. And today's game also proved this point. Before the first half was over, Dayao scored 18 points on the Dream Nine team. Before him, he was going to score 40 points in the whole game, and the Dream Nine team had nothing to do. Now that Dayao is injured suddenly, Krzyzewski doesn't need to worry about the center.

"God help me too! Dayao's injury doesn't seem to be as simple as a twist, it's more like a relapse of an old injury, and nine out of ten will retire! Without Dayao, we don't have to worry about the threat of the inside, young man We can break through with confidence!" Krzyzewski looked at his bench.

On the US team's bench, few can shoot, but there are a lot of excellent breakthrough players. Facing a Chinese team that lacks a big center, the US team's breakthrough players finally have a place to play a role.

Dayao was helped into the player tunnel and was examined by the team doctor, while the game continued.

Krzyzewski decisively made substitutions, replacing several breakthrough players, and the US team's tactics were adjusted instantly.

In the last three minutes of the first half, the U.S. team relied on their strong breakthrough ability to score consecutively, playing an 8-3 spurt, and ended the first half with a 46-41 lead of five points.

...

In the locker room, coach Deng Huade looked dignified.

A minute ago, the team doctor had informed Deng Huade of Dayao's injury. Although he hadn't passed the instrumental examination, judging from the symptoms after the preliminary examination, Dayao's injury was not optimistic, and he might even need another operation. The specific severity of the injury cannot be determined until after the MRI examination.

But what is clear now is that in the second half of the game, it is impossible for Dayao to play.

"Yao's condition is very serious, much more serious than we imagined. In this game, he has no possibility of playing. I think he hid his injury from us in order to play." Deng Huade thought of this, but did not Instead of blaming Dayao, he sighed softly: "The Houston Rockets will probably scold me to death!"

Lost Dayao, the Chinese team also lost the backbone of the inside. Facing the twin towers composed of Chandler and Love, coupled with the addition of Odom, the Chinese team has lost its advantage in the basket.

If it is a coach who is good at tactics, he may have already used the intermission time to adjust the new tactics, but the tactics are Deng Huade's shortcoming. At this time, he is like a headless chicken, and he doesn't know how to arrange it. , He couldn't find a way to win, let alone the hope of winning.

"We lost, we lost in the end!" Deng Huade sighed helplessly when he thought of this. As an American coach, Deng Huade can best appreciate the strength of the American team, and also knows Krzyzewski's ability to turn decay into magic.

The players are not as good as others, the level of coaches is not as good as others, and the most important players have been lost. At this moment, Deng Huade had already surrendered in his heart.

...

The 15-minute intermission ended quickly, and the players returned to the field.

Krzyzewski looked at the Chinese team's bench, looked at everyone carefully, and finally did not find Dayao.

"Dayao didn't show up. It seems that his injury is serious and he can't play anymore. The overall situation is settled!" Krzyzewski let out a long breath, and then showed a calm look. He was even very casual. Putting the tactical board on the general, as if to tell the world that there is no need to arrange tactics now.

The broadcast shot gave a close-up of the coaches of both sides. Compared with Krzyzewski's calm and relaxed attitude, Deng Huade had a bitter and bitter expression. Even through the TV screen, he could feel the kind of feeling in Deng Huade's heart bitter.

...

"We just got the news that Yao is about to go to the hospital after the game to undergo an MRI examination. In the second half of the game, it is impossible for him to play!" The ESPN commentator went on to say: "For the Chinese team, this It’s really terrible news, I think there is no suspense about the result of this game, we may be able to congratulate the US team in advance for winning this World Championship.”

"I don't know what adjustments the Chinese team will make in the second half of the game? If I guess correctly, Zhang Guan will become the main attacking point of the Chinese team in the second half. I don't know if he can contribute as much as the Olympic Games two years ago. This magical scene led the Chinese team to a comeback?" Another commentator said.

"Only relying on Zhang Guan? This may be difficult. Except for Yi, the level of the other players in the Chinese team is far behind that of the American team. The US team? I don’t think so. Even if Zhang Guan can score crazy points, it will only make the Chinese team lose less in the end.”

"That's right, the Chinese team wants to win, unless there is a miracle!"

...

It is already past three o'clock in the morning in China, and all those who can stay in front of the TV in the early morning are die-hard football fans.

Xiao Li turned off the TV, walked into the bedroom, and climbed onto the bed.

But the sound of him going to bed still woke up his girlfriend.

"The game is over? Who won?" The girlfriend turned over sleepily and asked.

"I haven't finished the fight, but I can't win!" Xiao Li sighed: "Dayao is injured and retired."

"He got hurt again? Didn't he just heal?" asked his girlfriend.

"Not fully recovered! Hey, it's such a pity. Before Dayao went down, the two sides were still tied. If we continue to fight, there is still a fight. Now, we will lose!" Xiao Li said.

"Isn't there still Zhang Guan?" His girlfriend asked vaguely, obviously about to fall asleep again.

"Zhang Guan? How could he beat the entire US team by himself? Unless there is a miracle!" Xiao Li sighed, closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.

...

In the director room of CCTV Sports Channel, ten staff members are busy working overtime.

Whenever there is an important game, overtime is essential, and today is the Sino-US war, so apart from the commentator and guests, the director, editor, and even the director in charge of the sports channel did not go back to rest.

The staff responsible for collecting the ratings rushed in: "Director, the ratings have dropped to 1.202%!"

"Dropped so fast? Didn't it still exceed 1.5% just now? This is equivalent to losing one-fifth of the audience!" The director said.

In 2010, among the ratings of CCTV Sports Channel, there were only two programs whose ratings exceeded 2%, namely the opening ceremony of the World Cup and the quarter-finals of the World Cup Germany VS Argentina. But these two programs are before twelve o'clock. For example, the game between Germany and Argentina is at ten o'clock in the evening. This is a very good time for fans to watch.

In the game in the early morning, even in the World Cup final, the Netherlands played against Spain, the ratings were only 1.3243%. Therefore, the ratings of more than 1.5% in the Men's Basketball World Championships final is already a very scary figure.

Although the current ratings have dropped to 1.202%, they are still comparable to the ratings of the NBA All-Star Game. Considering that it is three o'clock in the morning, perhaps the sports channel can open a bottle of champagne to celebrate.

"It's a pity, if Dayao hadn't been injured, the ratings would definitely have remained above 1.5%! There's no way, it's normal for the audience not to want to watch a match that is bound to be lost. If we still want to win now , unless a miracle happens!" The director took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, leaned back on the chair and began to close his eyes and meditate.

...

Durant looked relaxed. When he saw that the tallest figure was missing from the Chinese team's bench, he knew that the game had been successfully won and the US team would win the championship.

Since 1994, the US team has lost three consecutive World Championships. Since the 2000 Sydney Olympics, the US team has never won a world championship, and today, under the leadership of Durant, the US team is about to return to the world championship again.

At this time, Durant couldn't help thinking of his predecessors, the Dream Six team led by Iverson, the Dream Seven team composed of the 03 golden generation, and the Dream Eight team with many superstars. The U.S. team won a world championship, but Durant did what his predecessors failed to do today!

"I will become the greatest player in history, and today's world champion is just the beginning! Next, I will start my basketball era!" Durant clenched his fists excitedly. He thought of one name after another, those people used to be Durant's idols, but today, he did what those former idols failed to do!

The NBA championship may be very far away for these young people, and most of them have no experience in the playoffs. Therefore, a champion of the World Championships is enough to arouse the most primitive desire of this group of boys.

With this desire, they stepped onto the court, ready to welcome their championship...

There will be another chapter later.
