Hachimura Got Blocked to Tears

Hachimura Got Blocked to Tears

Zhang Ben Tianjie had been abused off the court, much to the delight of China's fans.

Now Wang Yi had set his sights on Hachimura Rui.

To be honest, Hachimura Rui hadn't been particularly flashy in this game.

After all, he'd faced Wang Yi four times in the NBA, from last season through this one.

In those four games, Wang Yi had practically beaten him to a pulp.

Across the four games, Wang Yi had averaged 45.7 points and 12 rebounds.

He'd even recorded as many as 7.5 blocks per game.

And four of those 7.5 blocks had been against Hachimura Rui.

So how could he possibly show off against China Team with Wang Yi on the roster?

But there was no helping it. He was Japan Team's leader.

The tallest tree catches the wind; the most prominent beam rots first.

You understood that, right?

It was fine if you didn't. You'd understand soon enough.

Japan Team had the ball.

Now that they'd lost Zhang Ben Tianjie, they tried to open things up in the paint.

After all, they had an NBA-caliber center.

They quickly passed the ball inside to Hachimura Rui.

After receiving the ball, Hachimura Rui first checked where Wang Yi was.

Fortunately, Wang Yi was still out on the perimeter.

He backed down Zhou Qi and started working his way toward the basket.

Although Zhou Qi was nearly ten centimeters taller than him, he was too thin.

So Hachimura Rui wasn't intimidated by him at all.

He backed him down for two steps, then spun forward and faked a shot.

As expected, Zhou Qi fell for it.

After faking out Zhou Qi, Hachimura Rui glanced over to see where Wang Yi was.

The moment he did, he started to panic.
