Chapter 484: Three Consecutive Three-Pointers, This is Curry

"If there's no good scoring opportunity, stabilize the situation first. Wait for Huang Yu and me to get into position, then pass the ball to us to handle it."

"And you guys..."

After a brief tactical arrangement, Wade Dong reminded Guo Sen and the others, "Put on the hoodies and keep your bodies warm. Be ready to come off the bench at any time. Even if you're sitting on the sidelines, cheer loudly and wave your towels vigorously."

Guo Sen, "..."

"Such nice hoodies, and you're not wearing them but throwing them aside?" Wade Dong muttered again.

This year's Men's Basketball World Cup has jerseys from over a dozen national teams sponsored by the Wade Dong Group, with the company's logo printed on everything from shoes to hoodies.

...

The second quarter begins.

Li Pei replaces Gu Qi, and Lin Hao, who rested for three minutes in the first quarter, returns to the court.

M Country's men's basketball team also makes substitutions.

Thompson, DeRozan, Drummond, Harden, and Plumlee enter the game.

This is the depth of M Country's men's basketball team. If you were to rank all the players participating in this year's World Cup, even the bench players would be among the top.

Aside from Wade Dong, it's hard to find anyone who can consistently outperform any player on M Country's team.

China's men's basketball team is on offense.

Lin Hao dribbles to the frontcourt, and Harden stands in front of him, defending with his eyes.

Wade Dong shouts, "This is a great opportunity to attack. Break through on Harden's right, then pass the ball to me."

"Swoosh~~~"

Lin Hao dribbles with one hand and changes direction, leaning on Harden to break through.

Wade Dong rushes to the basket, and after Lin Hao's breakthrough, he shakes his wrist, passing the ball to Wade Dong, who switches hands in mid-air to avoid Drummond.

"Swish!!!"

Wade Dong effortlessly puts the ball into the basket!

31:33!!!

This offensive play makes Coach K frown. He is a very strict coach who has nurtured many superstars, but Harden's defensive attitude on the previous play has annoyed him.

With this lineup, Harden can be considered the team leader, but his defense on that play was not befitting of a team leader.

"Get back on defense! Get back!"

Wade Dong doesn't dwell on his successful offense. After landing, he waves his hand, leading his teammates to quickly retreat and get back on defense.

Drummond posts up Yi Nan, drawing a defensive foul. Drummond steps up to the free-throw line.

"g~~~"

He misses the first free throw.

"g~~~"

The second free throw also misses, and Wade Dong positions himself to grab the rebound.

Drummond pounces, trying to snatch the ball from Wade Dong's hands.

Wade Dong performs a behind-the-back dribble, and the ball bounces off Drummond's back while Wade Dong breaks through on his left, receiving the ball and sprinting to the frontcourt.

Thompson and DeRozan start pressuring him in the midfield, but Wade Dong uses a butterfly dribble to get past both of them.

Harden reaches out to poke the ball!

He fails to knock the ball away, and Wade Dong has already passed four players, taking a step to the basket and jumping towards Plumlee.

"Clang!!!"

"Beep!!!"

Plumlee has already hit Wade Dong's arm, but the ball is still dunked by Wade Dong.

"Damn!"

"Awesome!"

"So cool!"

Guo Sen and the others jump up from the bench, vigorously waving their towels.

A 1-on-5 play!

Not only did he score, but he also drew a foul from Plumlee.

Wade Dong remains calm and walks to the free-throw line.

"Swish!!!"

After making the free throw, Wade Dong turns to Drummond and says, "You should practice your free throws."

"Hmph~!"

Drummond lets out a huff.

34:33!!!

China's men's basketball team takes the lead again.

The game becomes more intense... It's safe to say that this year's Chinese men's basketball team is much stronger than the one at the 2012 Olympics.

During the 2012 Olympics, although they had veterans like Wang Da Peng, Zhu Gui, and Wang Xin, the fact that they were considered veterans meant they were no longer young, and their competitive level had inevitably declined. Compared to Wade Dong carrying the team alone, this year, with Huang Yu and Lin Hao, Wade Dong's burden is significantly lighter.

At least there haven't been any more instances of triple-teaming.

...

Coach K and Coach Deng Hua sit quietly on their respective benches, both with their arms folded across their chests. Their attitudes are similar, and in this game, the coaches' influence is felt before the match. But once the game begins, the outcome is determined by the players on the court.

M Country attacks again, with Curry and Irving returning to the court, replacing Thompson and DeRozan.

This time, Curry actively demands the ball beyond the three-point line. He receives the pass from Harden and instantly shoots a three-pointer.

"Swish!!!"

The ball swishes through the net!

Curry's three-point performance begins...

Yi Nan misses a mid-range shot, and Plumlee grabs the defensive rebound, passing the ball to Curry.

Curry dribbles to the frontcourt, takes a step back, and shoots a three-pointer!

"Swish!!!"

The ball swishes through the net again.

"Swish!!!"

"Swish!!!"

"Swish!!!"

Subsequently, Curry sinks three more consecutive three-pointers.

38:48!!!

In just two minutes, Curry has made five out of five three-pointers, widening the lead to 10 points for M Country's men's basketball team.

"How's that, Dong Ge?"

Curry proudly raises his chin. "This is the three-pointer you taught me!"

When Curry first emerged in the Warriors, his three-point shooting skills were not yet fully developed. In the past two years with the Suns, Wade Dong has been a significant help to Curry.

However, Curry's talent is currently overshadowed by Wade Dong's brilliance.

Once Curry's contract expires and he leaves the Suns, he will undoubtedly shine in the league!

Wade Dong says sternly, "Brother, don't be too proud! If you can make another three-pointer against my defense, then you'll be impressive."

"I'll give it a try..."

As Curry speaks, he breaks free from Wade Dong's tight defense and reaches out for the ball.

"Swoosh~~~"

Harden passes the ball to Curry again.

Facing Wade Dong's defense, Curry first performs a 'prayer' move. Seeing that Wade Dong doesn't bite, Curry dribbles between his legs and breaks through, sticking close to Wade Dong. Curry's arm subtly pushes Wade Dong's waist.

He steps back!

Three-point shot!

In the second quarter, this is Curry's sixth three-pointer. Curry's release point isn't high, but it's quick. He steps back to the three-point line and instantly shoots.

Each step of Curry's combo move is anticipated by Wade Dong, who prepares to block the shot as Curry steps back.

"Clap!!!"

Wade Dong jumps and swats the ball with one hand in mid-air.

This block instantly dampens Curry's momentum after sinking three consecutive three-pointers.

After landing, Wade Dong relies on his speed, dribbling and rushing to the frontcourt... Curry gives up the chase near the midfield, as Wade Dong's dribbling is faster than Curry's sprint.

"Clang!!!"

Reaching the basket, Wade Dong winds up his arms and slams a windmill dunk.
