Chapter 1648 The War Begins, the Battle for the Future of the Alliance
The United States defeated Turkey and successfully entered the World Championship finals. Durant killed everyone and continued his magical performance. After the game, he issued a domineering championship declaration and said that he would defeat Ji Feng in the finals.
After so many things, Durant was a little swollen. However, when he returned to the hotel room and opened the website, he flipped through it and found that Ji Feng was still occupying the headlines all over the world...
Because the Chinese men's basketball team advanced to the World Championship finals again this time, which not only shocked Chinese fans.
The entire world basketball world was shocked.
Compared with the United States reaching the World Championships, China is even more incredible. After all, in the basketball world, there is no need to say more about the status of these two teams. Anyone who understands knows it.
Although the United States did not pay attention to the World Championships this time and sent only young players of the same level, they are all solid young talents. Not to mention the number one pick in 2008, the second place in 2007, the fourth place in 2006, and a bunch of 2009 players. Tou Xiu, these people are all future NBA masters, and their strength is much higher than that of players from other countries.
As for China, except for Ji Feng and Arab League who are active NBA players, and generally speaking, Sun Yue has been to the NBA to play, they are just newcomers. Not many can reach the top level in Asia, and there is a lack of Dayao. The absolute core of the past few years, his strength has been greatly reduced. Despite the halo of the Olympics, not many people are optimistic about him.
But it was such a team that Ji Feng took to the finals. Along the way, Ji Feng proved his strength with his amazing performance.
To be honest, as long as you like basketball, watching Ji Feng play will definitely make your blood boil. The ultimate personal heroism and the sense of responsibility to carry the team forward are enough to resonate with most people.
So much so that now many new generation players are determined to target Ji Feng, not to mention local Chinese players. Except for those conceited idiots, no one is dissatisfied with Ji Feng, not to mention the new generation players. Now, when Guo Ailun calls anyone, he always mentions "What does my brother Feng do?" and "What does my brother Feng say?" Ji Feng has become his number one idol.
Guo Ailun is just the epitome of the younger generation of players.
Potential rookies from other countries, especially countries with relatively weak basketball capabilities, also regard Ji Feng as their idol. They find resonance with Ji Feng, and they all hope to lead their national teams to achieve success in international competitions through their own efforts. breakthrough.
What is even more popular is the United States. It is said that the American team has entered the finals, and many fans actually support the opponent's core. This can be regarded as witnessing history.
But this is normal. Americans naturally love heroes, especially personal heroes. Otherwise, this country would not be the hometown and cradle of superheroes, and the best-selling movies on the market today would not be superhero movies.
Although Durant also performed very well, looking at Ji Feng's performance, the contrast is still very strong. In addition, Ji Feng is already very popular in North America, and the difference in appearance is not even a little bit, and there are stars from all walks of life competing for it. To help out, Durant humbly discovered that the number of people supporting him was less than a quarter of Ji Feng’s...
"Bang!" Durant couldn't stand it anymore and closed the computer directly. At the same time, he secretly swore in his heart that he would defeat Ji Feng head-on and defeat China in tomorrow night's final!
"If I can win the championship, then this will be the first step for me to become the first person in the league!" Durant clenched his fist.
…

However, the situation changed suddenly in the second half. Turkey, led by Turkoglu and Asik, launched a counterattack. Serbia encountered foul trouble in this quarter. To put it bluntly, it was the home whistle. Their main players committed too many fouls, which caused the game to be torn apart.
This gave Turkey a chance to reverse. With two minutes left in the fourth quarter, after Ou Nan made two free throws, Turkey led by 3 points, and the fierce battle between the two sides began.
With 28 seconds left in the game, Kesej grabbed an offensive rebound and caused a foul. He made two free throws. Serbia once again surpassed 80-79. However, Eldon immediately dunked successfully, and he also caused a foul, but unfortunately he missed the extra free throw.

This unexpectedly exciting game was a warm-up for the next championship station, and the fans' excited nerves were aroused.
Two hours later, the much-anticipated finals finally began!
Both sides completed the appearance ceremony amidst the cheers of fans. Ji Feng received the most applause. Although there were many fans of the US team at the scene, this did not prevent them from cheering for Ji Feng.
Before the game, the atmosphere between the two teams was still very good. Ji Feng also had a lively chat with Curry and Harden, and even went to chat with the old coach K for a long time, and even teased Durant, making the latter angry. Only when it doesn't work can I leave happily.
There was no way, Ji Feng was too familiar with these people.
However, after the game started, the good atmosphere just disappeared. Both sides were very focused. If they could reach the finals, they naturally did not want to lose. Although they were nominally second, as Kobe said, the runner-up means you Is the number one loser.
"Okay, Chandler wins the ball, and the U.S. team attacks first. This is the final of the future of the NBA. Who can take the upper hand!"
