Wagnerano did not call another timeout. Less than a minute remained in the quarter.
China Team brought the ball into the frontcourt. The same play, the same defensive scheme from Brazil Team, and Zhou Peng got the same shooting opportunity.
Unfortunately, he missed the shot this time.
Zhou Peng had a good mindset, but his ability was a little lacking.
The only players on China Team who could consistently knock down Open Three-Pointers in major tournaments were shooters at Zhu Fangyu's level.
Zhou Peng's three-pointer missed, but Yi Jianlian fought well for position, boxed out Nene, and grabbed the offensive rebound.
"Left corner!"
After Tang Tian shouted, Yi Jianlian reacted as well and whipped the ball toward the left corner, where Keyramut was already waiting.
The pass reached him, giving him an excellent open shot opportunity.
Keyramut was a standard 3D Player. This was exactly the sort of work he did on the offensive end in the CBA.
His shooting rhythm and form were both excellent.
"Swish!"
Keyramut seized the opportunity and sank the Open Three-Pointer!
The veterans led the newcomers. Yi Jianlian and Zhou Peng's successive plays had built momentum for China Team, and newcomers like Keyramut began making contributions at both ends of the floor as well!
On Brazil Team's final possession of the quarter, Barbosa viciously drove into the paint. He was trying to keep his team alive.
But Yi Jianlian showed no mercy, spotting his chance and sending it away with a Spike Block!
Barbosa was utterly embarrassed on that play.
And Keyramut had already blocked him on the previous possession. Barbosa was getting a hot-pot feast all to himself!
Yi Jianlian grabbed the Defensive Rebound, turned, and passed the ball to Tang Tian.
Tang Tian used a Low Dribble to get past Neto and Garcia
