The second half came back with China attacking first.

Tang Tian held the ball, but this time he didn't break through directly. Instead, he called for a pick-and-roll with Yi Jianlian.

After the pick, he didn't wait for the double-team to come and just pulled up for a jumper.

The choice was a bit sudden, and Anthony, who had switched on defense, didn't keep up at all.

"Swish!"

Tang Tian steadily put the ball in the basket.

China took the initiative.

But just after scoring two points, Anthony immediately broke through Zhou Qi on the return and scored two points with a layup.

The US team seemed to be in as good a shape as in the first half.

Tang Tian went outside after a pick-and-roll and was double-teamed by three people, passing the ball back to Yi Jianlian, who squeezed past Butler under the basket and sent the ball into the basket.

This ball was played very tough and inspiring.

But on the return, Irving and Anthony picked-and-rolled, accelerated to get rid of Zhou Qi, and scored another point with a layup.

Two minutes into the third quarter, the point difference on the court was still 20 points.

Coach K sat comfortably on the sidelines. If he continued to play at this pace, the US team's championship was a certainty.

The Chinese audience on the scene was also agitated.

The two teams played an offensive battle. Even though China played so well, they couldn't catch up with the score. This game was really unplayable.

However, the emotions of the players on the Chinese team didn't change much. They had already realized at halftime that they were not seeking victory but only seeking no regrets.

Tang Tian's breakthrough in the frontcourt was double-teamed by five people, and he passed the ball to Ding Yanyuhang at a forty-five-degree angle on the right.

Butler's return defense was very fast, but Ding Yanyuhang's shooting speed was much faster than Zhou Peng's.

"Swish!"

Although he hadn't played much before, Ding Yanyuhang showed his talent, and his first three-point shot went in cleanly.

A burst of cheers erupted from the scene.

After returning in the second half, the Chinese team used all their strength and played extremely tough.

Regardless of whether they could win or not, such an attitude and performance were already worthy of their cheers.

Durant singled out Zhou Qi, and immediately responded with a big euro-step layup.

The point difference was still 19 points.

But the emotions of the Chinese team members still didn't fluctuate. On the return, Tang Tian passed to Ding Yanyuhang at the baseline again.

Ding Yanyuhang used a three-point fake to shake Anthony away, rushed to the basket and used himself as a dynamite bag, causing Jordan's holding foul in a tough confrontation!

After the confrontation, his whole body was knocked out of the court.

Zhou Qi and Yi Jianlian immediately went over to pull him up.

After getting up, Ding Yanyuhang didn't say anything, just shook his arm which had been hit painfully.

This scene directly touched the fans on the scene and in front of the TV.

The Chinese team's lineup after returning in the second half really gave people that feeling of desperation.

They were indeed charging at the US team's machine gun positions with broadswords, but they were charging very resolutely!

A death charge!

Ding Yanyuhang made one of two free throws, but Zhou Qi used his long arms to grab the offensive rebound over Anthony's head.

He passed the ball back to Tang Tian, and Tang Tian took a step and turned to fadeaway.

"Swish!"

The ball goes in again!

After returning in the second half, the Chinese team scored on every attack!

Although the US team was still in good shape, they narrowed the point difference to 16 points with their death charge!

The point difference was still very large, but the hope of winning was being ignited by them little by little!

Durant's sudden stop jump shot was disturbed by Zhou Qi's long arms, and it slammed out with a "clang".

Yi Jianlian tried hard to grab the defensive rebound and passed the ball to Tang Tian.

Guo Ailun rushed out from the other side, and the Chinese team launched a two-line fast break!

Tang Tian's behind-the-back pass completely deceived Irving, and he jumped up with his right hand and slammed the ball into the basket!

The point difference was narrowed to 14 points!

Coach K finally had a change of expression at this time. He stood up from the bench, walked to the sidelines, and signaled the US team to slow down the pace.

Anthony posted up Zhou Qi in the frontcourt, turned around and made a layup, drawing a blocking foul on the latter.

After making both free throws, the US team widened the point difference back to 16 points.

The Chinese team's death charge in the second half was overwhelming, and the efficiency was also very high, but the point difference was only narrowed by 4 points!

The strength of the US team is really terrifying!

But in the next round, Tang Tian forced a layup in a triple-team and caused Jordan's blocking foul!

Knowing that it can't be done, but doing it anyway!

Even if the Chinese team can't win, they can't let the US team win easily!

With two steady free throws, the point difference was narrowed to 14 points again!

"Defense! Defense!"

The Chinese team's approach completely moved the fans at the scene.

The Chinese fans were shouting for defense, and the remaining fans also imitated the pronunciation and shouted for defense for the Chinese team!

Carioca Arena 1 had completely become the home of the Chinese team!

Irving was dribbling the ball, and he unconsciously looked up to see the reaction of the fans at the scene. This was something he had never encountered before.

Not only Irving, but other players on and off the court of the US team couldn't help but look up.

This scene had never happened in history!

"Pa!"

Just when everyone was stunned by this scene, Guo Ailun seized the opportunity and stole the ball from Irving's hand!

He pounced very hard, and his whole body flew out after the steal.

But he dialed the ball back before he flew out. Tang Tian got the ball, accelerated to get rid of everyone, rushed to the frontcourt and performed a flying tomahawk dunk!

"Boom!"

Like a heavy hammer hitting the heart, the entire stadium fell into a boil.

12 points!

The Chinese team narrowed the point difference to 12 points!

Guo Ailun got up from the ground, punched his chest and waved his fist excitedly at the audience, roaring. That feeling was even more exciting than scoring himself!

What responded to him was even louder cheers from the scene.

Coach K reached out and called a timeout!

The Chinese team used a death charge to stop the US team!

Trailing by 20 points at halftime, and the opponent was the US team, the possibility of a reversal was almost zero.

Not to mention that it was a team that couldn't play except for Tang Tian and Yi Jianlian.

But with their desperate style of play, they were turning the impossible into possible!

An unbelievable game!

"I take back what I said before, nothing is impossible."

Even the Brazilian commentators at the home court were convinced by the performance of the Chinese team.

After the timeout, the US team made a lineup adjustment. Coach K replaced Anthony and Butler with Green and Thompson.

This was the small-ball lineup that the US team used to establish an advantage in the first half, and it was also the best lineup to play the talent of this Dream Team XII.

Sure enough, in the first round after the timeout, Green assisted Irving with a cut to the basket and scored two points.

But Ding Yanyuhang dribbled the ball here and desperately charged to the basket, forcibly rising and hugging Green into a ball.

The referee whistled, indicating Green's defensive foul!

Ding Yanyuhang walked to the free throw line and made both free throws again. The Chinese team narrowed the point difference to 12 points again!

Everyone is fighting, everyone is a soldier, just charge, just do it!

This kind of momentum is invisible but oppressive. Green and Durant made a mistake in their cooperation and passed the ball directly out of bounds!

The cheers from the scene couldn't stop.

And in the cheers of the fans, Tang Tian made continuous feints on the outside to get rid of Thompson, and pulled up for a three-pointer in the face of Irving's help defense.

"Swish!"

Like a red-hot iron block thrown into cold water, the scene instantly boiled!

The Chinese team narrowed the point difference to 9 points!

A single-digit point difference!
