#波黑双加时胜法国 Nurkic 21 points #
At 2:00 a.m. Beijing time on August 28, the men's basketball World Cup qualifiers were launched between Bosnia and Herzegovina and France, and through two overtime battles, Bosnia and Herzegovina narrowly defeated France 96-90.
Originally a showdown between the NBA's most expensive center and the most cost-effective center, it finally evolved into Nurkic's one-man show, Gobert scored only 10 points, I don't know if after watching this game, the Timberwolves general manager secretly prepared his next job application.
In the opening 16 seconds, Bosnia and Herzegovina's first attack, Nurkic blocked the bomb to remove the bomb to the three-point line, Gobert did not have time to make up the defense, the crossbow machine three-point response into the net, this ball set the tone for the whole game. Throughout the game, Nurkic, under Gobert's defense, shot 8-of-12 from mid-range and had 21 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. In the 4th quarter, Nurkic also staged a scene in which the midline dribble broke through the brutal barrier, and the Blazers spent $70 million in 4 years!
Gobert's performance is also "impressive". In the NBA, no one on the Jazz wanted to pass the ball to him, and the coach didn't assign him a specific tactic, so he didn't expect to return to the national team. With 3 minutes and 49 seconds left in the first quarter, he won his first singles opportunity and the shot was deflected.
In the first wave of french balls in overtime, Gobert rushed into the box with the ball to single out Nurkic, at this time only the crossbow machine under the basket was guarded, and he chose to pass back to his teammates outside the three-point line;
With 1 minute and 19 seconds left in the first overtime, France trailed Bosnia and Herzegovina by 2 points 79-81, Gobert once again singled Nurkic missed, And Bosnia and Herzegovina grabbed a rebound and a wave of fast attacks, stretching the point difference to 4 points;
The only bright spot in the game is estimated to be that with 1 minute and 8 seconds left in the first overtime, Gobert backplayed Nurkic, although unsuccessful, but caused the crossbowman to leave the field for 5 fouls, but immediately lost his fifth offense in the next round of offensive fouls, leaving the field when the team needed it most.
If it were not for Fournier's three-point accuracy on the outside line today, a person cut 24 points and 5 rebounds, the French team would have surrendered long ago, expecting Gobert to carry the banner of the French team, it is hopeless.
Gobert previously signed a five-year, 205 million maximum salary with the Jazz, and the contract amount for the 2022-23 season was 38.17 million yuan, and then increased year by year, reaching 46.65 million yuan by the 2025-26 season.
Keeping up with this performance, the Timberwolves had to call the Jazz and ask if they could return it.
