Chapter 373: Back-to-back 40 points, second in the group advanced

"Dunn, can you give me an autograph? I'm your fan!"

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

After defeating the Croatian men's basketball team, Duen was preparing to leave with the other players of the men's basketball team.

Unexpectedly, players from the Croatian men's basketball team and even some members of the coaching staff came to Doon, pretending to be fans, and asked Doon for his autograph.

This is not the first time that Duan has encountered this situation. This happened as early as two years ago in the Olympic Games.

However, last year he announced his retirement and bid farewell to the competition stage. This year, he has not encountered such a situation at the competition site.

"Dunn, you should continue to play, right?"

"Thank you, thank you for your signature. I hope you can return to the NBA."

"Thank you very much. My wife and son are also your fans!"

"Dunn, can you take a photo with us?"

Facing a group of lovely fans, Du En naturally did not refuse their requests for autographs and photos.

As for the question of when to return to the NBA, Duan did not reveal too much to them and just responded with a smile.

Not long after, Duan said goodbye to the fans and the audience.

Immediately afterwards, I took the car back to the hotel with the other teammates of the men's basketball team to review the game and summarize the gains and losses of the game.

When the men's basketball team discusses the content of the game behind closed doors, some outside media who are more interested in the men's basketball team are more concerned about Duan's personal status.

"Duane scored 22 points on 27 shots in the first game of the Men's Basketball World Cup, and the legend ended and became ordinary."

"It feels cold! Duan missed all 4 of his three-pointers. His performance in the first game of the Men's Basketball World Cup was average."

"Still needs adjustment! The legendary shooter failed to find his touch as expected. Although he scored 27 points to lead the team to win, he failed to hit a three-pointer!"

As early as some time ago, part of the news about Duan's performance in the domestic warm-up match reached North America.

Many fans have discussed this, but most fans believe that Duan will quickly regain his touch and his competitive status will immediately pick up.

Who knows, now that the Men's Basketball World Cup group stage has begun, Duan's shooting status will still be the same!
This will undoubtedly make more and more fans look down on Duan's performance in the Men's Basketball World Cup.

However, the members of the Dream Eleven team who are also participating in the Men's Basketball World Cup are relatively optimistic about this.

"I believe Duen will definitely come back, and I hope to meet them in the next game."

"Yes, Du En will not be defeated by such difficulties, he will definitely get his touch back.

For us, defeating the stronger Duen is undoubtedly more meaningful.

I also hope that I will have the opportunity to play against Doon next season.

I wasn't able to catch Michael's comeback, but I was hoping to beat Duane who was still in his prime. "

"We have missed the opportunity to play against the strongest Dune, but the next victory is still very meaningful to us."

"If it weren't for playing against Du En, I wouldn't come here to fight alongside you. I would rather beat you on the court."

"I just hope Duan can regain his touch soon, otherwise we may not be able to meet the team he leads."

"Actually, Duane is still terrible without shooting. We don't have the conditions to defend Duane in the low post, and the same goes for other teams."

"Let's wait and see. I believe that Duan will lead his team to us in a few days."

It was also the first victory in the group stage. The Dream Eleven team had no opponents in Group A and could win in any game.

The men's basketball team needs to use all its strength to defeat its opponents.

During the first game of the group stage, Duen did not even dare to shoot three-pointers too often. In actual combat, he tested whether he had regained his shooting feel.

However, Duan quickly found an opportunity to test the training results and shoot three-pointers on the court.

Because this time the opponent is the Greek team at its peak.

As early as the first half, the men's basketball team was beaten by the Greek team, creating a huge 16-point difference.

When this happens, the men's basketball team has no good solution. They can only try the third quarter to see if they can recover the point difference with three-pointers.

Because the men's basketball team will definitely not be able to maintain efficiency on both offense and defense in the fourth quarter, so if it cannot tie the score in the third quarter, it will definitely be useless in the fourth quarter. However, the 16-point gap has been opened before, which is really difficult to catch up with.

Moreover, the men's basketball team does not have players who can hit three-pointers continuously.

As a result, Du En had to step forward to absorb the ball.

However, muscle memory cannot be retrieved in ten days and a half, and shooting touch cannot be developed by just hitting the iron.

With no hope of winning, Duen shot ten three-pointers in the third quarter alone.

It was a bit crazy, but I did score two goals.

The shooting percentage is not high, but for male basketball players and domestic fans, it is a good sign to be able to make a three-pointer in the game. Everything is difficult at the beginning!
By the fourth quarter, the game had actually become garbage time, with the men's basketball team trailing the Greek team by 26 points.

However, the Greek team did not rush to kill all the opponents and put on a pure substitute lineup at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Because after this game, less than 24 hours later, the men's basketball team would play its third group match, so other main players except Duan were also withdrawn.

It's not that Du En isn't tired, he just wants to get back his touch as soon as possible.

In the fourth quarter of the game, Duen not only shot three-pointers, but also made several mid-range and moving floaters.

Because the Greek team intentionally let Duan shoot, Duan's shooting percentage in the fourth quarter was not that ugly.

He made 12 of 5 shots and 6 of 2 three-pointers, but this was also because the defense was very loose. Duan did not make free throws and relied on shooting. He scored 12 points on 12 shots and his efficiency was average.

At the end of the game, Duan scored 34 points, but took 36 shots.

If it weren't for the Greek team's favor in the fourth quarter, Duan's performance would undoubtedly have stretched his hips to the extreme.

However, in the next third group match, Dune achieved redemption.

Originally, this game was very difficult. After all, the men's basketball team didn't have a good rest. They basically slept for six hours, and then they were woken up to wash up, eat, and then start training and warm up to prepare for the game.

They played again against the best team in Group B - Argentina.

With a lack of men and horses and a strong opponent, Duen relied on low-post singles to help the men's basketball team open up the situation early.

After the first half, Duan had helped the men's basketball team score 16 points with 28 shots.

In the third quarter, when Yi Jianlian finally broke out, Duan smoked in the corner and rested for a while. Then when Yi Jianlian couldn't play anymore, he took over the ball again and continued to hit hard in the low post.

As the players in the golden era of the Argentine team get older, no one inside the Argentine team can limit the "weight gain" Duan.

Duane relied on his 36-point performance in the first three quarters to help the men's basketball team build an 11-point lead before the fourth quarter started.

Other players of the men's basketball team also realized that as long as they beat Argentina and hold two points, they are basically guaranteed to advance to the group stage, so they played particularly hard in the following fourth quarter.

Guo Ailun, who only relied on free throws to score one point in the first three quarters, also stepped up and scored 4 points in a row with sudden shots at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Then the men's basketball team also made three-point shots from the outside one after another. The Argentine men's basketball team tried to chase the score with a three-pointer, but made a mistake in the chaos. Instead, Duan seized the opportunity and made two conversions.

At this point, Du En's personal score has reached 40 points.

It is worth mentioning that, in order to show respect for Duen, the Argentina team took the initiative to call a timeout to let Duen enjoy the cheers of the fans on site.

It has to be said that after less than a day of back-to-back games, Duan's style of play still focused on scoring at the basket, and he was able to score 40 points in a single game. This is indeed extraordinary.

Of course, the reason why the Argentine team coach took the initiative to call a timeout was because Duan had achieved brilliant results in the NBA and international leagues in the past.

Therefore, not everyone who goes downhill will be laughed at.

A god who has truly climbed the highest mountain will be respected by mortals even if he comes down.

Although Du En's divinity is a little puffy due to the media's hype, it is still very stable overall.

After the game, everyone in the Argentine team not only asked for autographs and photos from Duen, but also congratulated and praised Duen for his performance tonight.

Du En finally breathed a sigh of relief amidst the many compliments.

And on September 9, after the game against Puerto Rico, Duan was finally able to relax completely.

75 to 70, the men's basketball team won its third victory in the group stage.

With three points in hand, the men's basketball team not only successfully advanced to the knockout rounds, but also ensured that it could advance as second in the group by defeating Puerto Rico and Argentina.

This also means that in the next game against Senegal, the last game of the group stage, the men's basketball team can strategically give up to save energy, or let Duen take one more shot and continue to find his touch. (End of chapter)
