Intermission.

Gasol was still gasping for breath. After all, he was older and his physical fitness was not as good as before. He played for a long time in this quarter, especially Gasol, who almost filled the entire second quarter. He consumed a lot of physical energy. Although he had been resting for two or three minutes, he had not recovered yet.

Looking at Gasol, Sergio Scarioro said: "Thank you for your hard work."

"Not hard work." Paul Gasol smiled.

Mark Gasol also said: "It's a pity that the score failed to catch up, and it was still 8 points behind the Chinese men's basketball team."

Sergio Scarioro nodded, his eyes lit up and said, "It's okay, it's just 8 points. Next, you have a good rest and leave the game to others for the time being." After that, he turned around and looked at the other players of the Spanish team, "Gasol and the others have done their best, and it's up to you to see. In the third quarter, our goal is to overtake the score!"

Everyone was shocked and their eyes lit up.

"I'll talk about the tactics..." Sergio Scarioro began to arrange the tactics.

The Chinese men's basketball team.

Everyone sat together and looked at Gong Luming.

Gong Luming said: "We can only say that the second quarter is average. Although Gasol played very well, if we could play better, the difference in the score would definitely be ten." As he said that, Gong Luming paused and said: "Okay, I'm not going to blame you, but next, we must work harder to fight better and widen the score difference."

"Yes." Everyone said in unison.

Gong Luming nodded and began to arrange: "Wait until Guo Ailun, Li Gen, Yu Qian, Hu Jinqiu, Shi Xiaomeng, you guys. Pay attention to defense and on the offensive end..."

After some arrangements, everyone rested for a while and the second half began.

Entering the third quarter, the Chinese men's basketball team attacked. After the ball reached the front court, it was handed to Yu Qian. Yu Qian broke through and passed the ball and gave it to Li Gen. Li Gen made a three-pointer, but unfortunately he failed to hit it.

Spain won the rebound and launched a counterattack quickly. Rubio advanced quickly. After halftime, he made a pick-and-roll with his teammates, then suddenly pulled out and made a jump shot.

Swish!

With a light sound, the ball entered.

This surprised people. Unexpectedly, Rubio attacked so resolutely at the beginning of this quarter and even made a shot.

What was even more amazing was that just a few dozen seconds later, Rubio made another small throw after a jump, just like a plug-in. In just over a minute, he scored 4 points per person.

This is very Rubio!

However, with Rubio's two consecutive shots, the score difference narrowed to 4 points, and the Spanish fans in the audience were also very excited, waving the Spanish flag and cheering thunder.

On this side, Yu Qian stood up, and after a cross step, he forced the inside, hit the ball against the defender, helping the Chinese men's basketball team stabilize the situation, with a score difference of 6 points.

In the next two minutes, both sides were back and forth, with neither shooting percentage and great defensive intensity.

But at this moment, Rubio actually broke out again. After pushing to the frontcourt, he handed the ball to his teammates, and then started running by himself. After several passes, the Spanish team failed to find the opportunity and the ball returned to Rubio's hand. At this time, there was not much time left in the offensive, and Rubio took the ball and took a three-pointer.

Guo Ailun flew over and his hand was already stretched to Rubio's face.

But the next moment, with a swish, the ball actually entered.

"roar......"

"Rubio!"

"Beautiful three-pointer."

In the audience, Spanish fans were excited.

A group of American players looked at each other and laughed. This was really surprising. Rubio, who has always been stronger than scoring, suddenly transformed into the scoring leader. In just a few minutes, he had already scored 7 points.

"beep......"

Gong Luming asked for a substitution, replaced Guo Ailun and replaced Chen Feng.

In fact, Guo Ailun is not bad at defending him. The reason why Rubio scored consecutive goals cannot be blamed for Guo Ailun, but Gong Luming did not allow Rubio to be so crazy, and he needed to suppress him even more, so he replaced Chen Feng.

After Chen Feng came up, Rubio was indeed suppressed.

However, at this time, the Spanish team also changed their team and brought the Gasol brothers up. The Spanish team blossomed at multiple points and scored consecutive goals. Although the Chinese men's basketball team was also scoring goals, the gap was getting smaller and smaller.

Until halfway through this quarter, Chen Feng missed the shot, Paul Gasol took the rebound and immediately passed it to Rubio. Rubio took the ball and advanced quickly. After he arrived at the frontcourt, he slowed down. When his teammates came, he shook his wrist and passed the ball to Marc Gasol. Marc Gasol took a step back and saw Mirotic running over as soon as he was about to play.

Marc Gasol's heart moved and immediately passed the ball.

Mirotic stood outside the three-point line on the left corner, and received the ball as a three-pointer, with almost no preparation. The basketball drew an arc and pierced through the Nets with a swish.

Three points are valid.

"marvelous!"

"What a three-pointer, haha, I finally overtook it."

In the audience, Spanish fans were excited. With Mirotic's three-pointer hit, the Spanish team finally overtook the score and led the Chinese men's basketball team by one point.

Although it was only one point ahead, it was a surrogate.

This is the first time that Spain has taken the lead in this game!

"beep......"

Gong Luming called another pause.

On the Spanish side, Sergio Scarioro replaced the Gasol brothers and replaced the Hernangomez brothers, giving Gasol a rest.

After the timeout came back, the Chinese men's basketball team successfully scored using tactics and overtook the score.

However, the Spanish team then scored another three-pointer, overtaking the score again, leading the Chinese men's basketball team by two points.

Moreover, the Spanish men's basketball team played a momentum and always had the upper hand in the following minutes. Whenever the Chinese men's basketball team caught up with the score or approached the score, they were able to score the ball and stay ahead.

This made no one else expect that at this time the Spanish men's basketball team would overtake the score, causing the situation to reverse and suppress the Chinese men's basketball team.

When the third quarter ended, the Spanish men's basketball team led by 5 points.

The players on the Chinese men's basketball team looked ugly, and Gong Luming also frowned. After thinking for a while, he sighed: "It seems that we were too smooth at the beginning. It may not be a good thing to keep the lead all the time. Being overtaken can also have the benefits of being overtaken. Only with pressure can you have motivation."

Looking at the players under his command, Gong Luming said: "We were overtaken and fell behind by 5 points. However, I believe this is only temporary. We will take back the lead in the fourth quarter."

"yes."
Chapter completed!
