Durant was like a shy child, his face was slightly red, his hands had nowhere to put, and his breath felt hot.

Although the contact was brief, he found that he had found true love.

Dicker's gentleness and Scarlett's wildness are two completely different styles.

Madness can make people temporarily forget their worries, but when the madness ends, there will be even more endless emptiness and loneliness.

And the only thing that can heal emptiness and loneliness is gentleness.

He struggled to find a topic, and Dicker's laughter made him feel as if he was in a sea of ​​flowers.

That is the breath of spring.

The lush fragrance of flowers, the refreshing air, and the green vitality.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but when he took a deep breath and turned his attention from Dicker to the game, the winner of the game had already been decided.

The Chinese team has led the French team by more than ten points, and the French team has... been defeated.

It was at this time that he noticed Gobert sitting off the court early.

On the Chinese team's side, Lin Ying kept attacking Gobert and knocked Gobert out of the game with two fouls early on.

Durant reminded Lin Ying that Gobert had greatly increased the strength of the French team inside, so if he were to be defeated, the French team would return to the original French team.

With Lin Ying's ability, it is actually not difficult to do this.

Because Gobert was young and inexperienced at this time, and he only had 5 fouls in international competitions. If he committed 2 fouls, he would not be on the court in the first quarter, and the rest of the game would become fragmented.

Durant couldn't help but admire Lin Ying at this time.

In terms of basketball understanding, Lin Ying is at least one level better than him.

And at this moment, his IQ took over the high ground.

"I want to donate a large amount of money to the local welfare home in Rio, but I don't know how to do it. Can you help me?"

Durant looked at Dicker with enthusiasm on his face.

"Of course, do you also care about the children in the orphanage?"

Dicker looked at Durant with a happy face.

"Yes, there are many such welfare homes in our country. I have funded them before and even visited them."

Durant was very emotional.

However, the first half of the sentence is true, and the second half is made up.

"I can take you to visit the orphanage in Rio. I often go there."

Dicker took the words almost instinctively.

"That's great, I happen to have this idea too!"

Durant replied with certainty.

The Chinese team finally defeated the French team 96-67 and became the last team to advance to the semi-finals.

Before the game ended, Lin Ying looked at Durant and Dicker in the stands.

Compared with before the game, the two were already very engaged in chatting.

It seems that it won't be long before he will receive the wedding invitation.

…

The semi-final matches are the United States against Spain and China against Australia.

Spain is usually slow to start again, but this time it was slow to start, allowing them to encounter the dream team in the semifinals.

The Chinese team had some luck in being first, so they faced the weakest opponent among the semi-finals in the semi-finals.

Why is it said to be the weakest? Because this Australian team was eliminated by Serbia in the quarter-finals in its history.

Moreover, whether they were in the past Olympics or World Championships, they were defeated by the Chinese team.

Many fans will never forget his four years in London, where Bogut's diarrhea made him famous around the world.

That night, when the fans saw the news reports, they felt that their mobile phones smelled.

The two semifinals were played on the same day, with the United States and Spain playing in prime time that evening, and the match between China and Australia following.

The Chinese team arrived at the arena earlier to watch the game between the United States and Spain.

Lin Ying saw Kobe and his wife at the scene, along with their daughter Gigi.

Lin Ying also went over to say hello.

The competition was much more intense than expected.

The Spanish team has reached its peak since 2008. Eight years have passed and many of the main players have become old.

Pau Gasol already has a white beard.

It is worth mentioning that Gasol has been waiting for news from the Lakers this past summer.

The Lakers also signed Gasol back with a two-year, $25 million contract after completing George's deal.

When Kobe is about to retire, this "sister-in-law" who has followed Kobe for many years and is called Kobe's best partner by fans will also accompany Kobe through the last part of his career.

Therefore, Kobe's appearance on the sidelines was not only to cheer for the Dream Team, but also to cheer for Gasol.

Or maybe it was because Kobe was present and Gasol played very aggressively.

Then, the dream team's insiders still couldn't resist.

b Formulate various rules to restrict insiders, and then there are no high-quality insiders in the United States.

This time, the Dream Team led two big men. Cousins' defense was very poor, and Jordan was short and struggled against the Gasol brothers.

However, Durant showed the strength of his fib nuclear weapon. For him, fib's three-pointer is his best long two-pointer. The continuous three-pointers made the Spanish team unable to do anything.

Especially at the final critical moment of the game, Durant would pull out of anyone he met on the outside.

His hands are also very hot, no matter how hard he throws, he can't do it.

Relying on his performance, the United States team finally defeated the Spanish team 105-96.

Durant made 7 three-pointers and scored 27 points.

With neither James nor Anthony coming, Durant has become the only player on the Dream Team who can stably attack tough situations.

Before this game, he averaged 20 points per game in 6 games, shooting 52% from the field and 55% from three-point range.

After him, there are Irving with a shooting percentage of 44% and George with a shooting percentage of 41%. They are also the only two players besides him to average double figures in points per game.

After that, Klay Thompson struggled very hard, shooting less than 40% from the field.

If this year's Dream Team can finally win the championship, Durant's popularity in North America will definitely soar.

Americans love heroes the most.

After the U.S. team's game ended, the game between China and Australia began.

Unlike the fierce battle between the United States and Spain, the subsequent semi-finals can be said to be... one-sided.

The Chinese team started the game with intensity from the beginning. Yao Ming basically didn't play much in the first half, but he also started to exert his strength in the semi-finals.

As for the Australian team, Bogut still instinctively freaked out when he saw Lin Ying, struggling on both offense and defense.

Even Zhou Qi completed a dunk on him when cutting in.

Bogut was also the epitome of Australia tonight. After the first quarter, they only scored 5 points in total.

After a single quarter, the Chinese team led 16 to 5 by 11 points.

Then in the second quarter, the Chinese team scored another 19-9.

At halftime, the score was 35 to 14, which was more than 20 points difference.

It was Australian basketball's darkest half of the game.

But in the second half, the Australian team showed something different from the French team.

After halftime adjustments, they played significantly tougher.

They played the Chinese team 24-31 in the third quarter.

Then, they played another garbage time period with the Chinese team, and in the end they only lost 61 to 91 by 30 points.

After the game, the expressions of the Australian team members were numb.

Originally, they only experienced the darkest half, but now it's the darkest full episode.

You must know that they were in good shape before this Olympics. They only lost 4 wins and 1 loss to the Dream Team in the group stage, and they also won by almost 20 points against Lithuania.

This is really like jumping forward with full hope and then getting hit in the face.

And last year, fib officials made the decision to classify Australia and New Zealand into the Asian zone. After that, they will still have many opportunities to play against the Chinese team to increase their experience.

So in the end, with seven points of performance and three points of luck, the men's basketball team reached the Olympic finals as expected.

Since the battle in London four years ago, the Chinese and American men's basketball teams will once again face their peak battle in Rio.
