Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA-Chapter 751 - 268 When Qin Yue’s Teammate is Yao Ming_2

Moreover, you have to know, Qin Yue on the FIBA court is Qin Yue without the constraints of "Qin Yue's Law".

Just how terrifying is the GOAT without the restrictions of "Qin Yue's Law"?

That night, with a staggering performance of 57 points, 18 rebounds, 5 assists, and 4 blocks, Qin Yue, who shot 16 of 28 from the field, 6 of 12 from three-point range, and 19 of 20 from the free-throw line, deeply impressed the British fans on site.

Though, the British have never been interested in basketball.

But for Qin Yue, the God of Basketball, the fans in attendance mimicked fervently as they chanted "GOAT, GOAT" whenever he stepped up to the free-throw line.

On the court, Ginobili, who scored 28 points, with 7 assists and 4 rebounds for Argentina Team, could not stop the fate of Argentina Team's elimination and said after the game, "In this match, I felt like we were up against an unbeatable deity."

Soon after Chinese Team eliminated Argentina Team, the United States Team, led jointly by Durant and Anthony, steamrolled Australia Team with a score of 118 to 81, who had sworn before the match to show the United States Team the intensity of FIBA competition.

"Is this the intensity Australian people were talking about?" Durant, barely breaking a sweat, asked with a puzzled look at the press conference.

"Maybe to Andrew Bogut, this level of match-up already seems intense?" Anthony laughed from the side.

In this life, due to the impact brought by Qin Yue's emergence, Bogut, having lost the title of number one draft pick, not only missed out on the enormous resources the Bucks invested in him early in his career.

Also, because of Bogut's notorious mouth that was unwelcome wherever he went, this former "Bai Duncan" had long fallen to just an ordinary NBA blue-collar center.

As of now in his career, Bogut has only been averaging 7.1 points and 5.0 rebounds in the NBA.

This summer, Bogut only received an offer from Minnesota after the Olympic Games began.

However, even so, Bogut still hasn't curbed his unskillful yet chatty nature.

Thus, after the United States Team crushed Australia, Bogut, who had boasted pre-game about showing the United States Team intense competition, naturally became the target of criticism.

In the semifinals, the Chinese Team's opponent was France Team.

This team has been a perennial paradox on the international stage, strong against strong opponents, yet weak against weaker ones.

In Qin Yue's memory, the French Team often went head-to-head with Asian teams in past tournaments, making it hard to believe they were strong contenders for medals on the international stage during this period.

However, when facing strong teams, this France Team's tactical and highly disciplined defense did pose quite a challenge for the Chinese Team during the game night.

Chinese Team enjoyed the home team benefit during the semifinals against France.

Because no matter when, the British disdain for the French is politically correct, so whenever a French player had the ball, the British fans on site would join forces with the Chinese fans to disrupt the French players in every way possible.

On the Chinese Team's side, when Qin Yue held the ball, some British fans even yelled in Chinese: "Kick their ass!"

The final score, 78 to 67.

In this retro slow-paced game, the Chinese Team relied on the absolute advantage inside from Qin Yue and Yao Ming to defeat France Team, securing their spot in the men's basketball finals at the London Olympic Games.

"The Chinese Team, led by the 'Messiah', saved the world!" — The Times

What? Even a basketball game could lead The Times to report with a headline about saving the world?

Of course.

After all, the Chinese Team defeated France Team in the semifinals.

Joking aside, during the London Olympic Games, compared to how many gold medals the British Team could win, the British cared more about how many "Waterloos" the French could encounter in this Olympics.

Anyway, whenever there's a match involving French athletes, the British audience would unreservedly mock the French athletes with their boos.

Maybe, this isn't in the spirit of the Olympics.

But it's definitely British.

On August 12, in the third-place match to have progressed first, Spain Team, defeated by the United States Team, got to enjoy the treatment that the Chinese Team had the day before.

On the court, the moment Spain Team won against France Team with a score of 80 to 69, the entire London Olympic Basketball Arena instantly turned into a sea of joy.

The British love to see the frustrated faces of the French in failure.

However, this evening in the basketball world, basketball enthusiasts from all over the world were evidently more interested in the upcoming summit showdown.

From Indianapolis in 2002 to London in 2012, for the Redemption Team that had not won a single championship at major international tournaments for a whole decade, even before the start of the London Olympic Games, they had already been tasked with the mission to help American Basketball regain its past glory.

Before the game, Durant said in an interview: "Considering this will be his last participation in international competition, this is also my last chance to defeat him and his team on the international stage."

Eager to seize this one-of-a-kind opportunity to restore American Basketball's glory, Durant felt morally obliged.

But Qin Yue, whose intention was to convey to Durant that "failure is a perpetual part of life", responded to Durant by saying: "Can American Basketball regain its glory in the future? My answer is, without me on the international stage, they definitely can restore their former glory."
