With the finals halfway through, every game is a test for the Qingbei team.

The fourth game of the finals is about to begin, and the members of the Qingbei team are all looking forward to it.

After the darkness comes the dawn.

Sun Meng's return has boosted the confidence of the entire Qingbei team.

The atmosphere at the Qingbei team's home stadium was electric. The pre-match music was deafening, and the catchy melody made people want to dance along.

"Hello everyone! The finals have reached a fever pitch. Today is the fourth match of the finals, and it's also the second match point for the Yuna team. Currently, the overall score between Yuna and Qingbei is 2-1, with Yuna temporarily leading by one match. In the last match, Chu Feiyu of Qingbei made a three-pointer to win the game and even the score. Today, Qingbei faces the same situation; there is no room for retreat. If they lose, they go home." Liu Du began his usual opening remarks.

Feng Xu reminded, "Qingbei team also received good news, that is, Sun Meng will start the game. Yang Lingling, Shu Juan and Sun Meng's inside offense is very versatile, I don't know if Yunan team is prepared for this situation."

Luo Yan said, "With the double swingman setup, the pressure from Sun Meng and Lu Yu swinging between the forwards and guards, and Chu Feiyu's outside shooting, the Yunan team's defense needs to be careful."

"It sounds like Coach Feng and Yanzi favor Qingbei team in this game. We'll see if Yunan team's strong inside game can make an impact. Without further ado, the most exciting game is about to begin!" Liu Du's voice was loud and clear.

As the whistle blew, the basketball was tossed into the air.

Yang Lingling's takeoff height was still a little short.

Next time, all I need to do is adjust my hang time rhythm; it's just a little bit off! Yang Lingling thought to herself. Undeterred, she immediately returned to defense after landing.

The basketball flew towards the Yu Nan team's point guard, who jumped and caught it. With a few strides, he dribbled the ball across half-court and immediately passed it. Du Xianglan, who was there to receive the pass, was already prepared to catch it; a simple reach would have been enough to retrieve the ball. But—

A figure flashed by.

It was Sun Meng!

Sun Meng accelerated through the middle of the long pass, stole the ball from the side, and immediately changed direction, sprinting towards the Yu Nan team's basket. She dribbled twice between her legs, easily shaking off Du Xianglan's close defense. Without slowing down, Sun Meng pushed the ball to Lu Yu, who was running in sync on the perimeter, before Ji Yun could arrive.

Facing the one-on-one defense of the Yunan team's point guard, Lu Yu looked much more relaxed. She swayed her shoulder to the right, bounced the basketball twice, and then broke through from the left side.

The perfect butterfly step is Lu Yu's signature move.

After shaking off the Yunan team's point guard, Lu Yu stopped abruptly and shot from beyond the three-point line.

Such a three-pointer made the Qingbei team fans sweat with anxiety.

"Thump—"

First shot, hit!

The home crowd of the Qingbei team was so excited that they seemed to want to lift the roof off the stadium.

"Qingbei team had a good start today," Liu Du commented.

"It's obvious that the Yunan team is preparing for a fast break again, but this time, the Qingbei team is also on guard," Feng Xu analyzed from a tactical perspective.

Luo Yan said, "Sun Meng's return gives the Qingbei team a lot more room on both offense and defense. With the double pressure from the inside and outside, it looks like the Yunan team will soon taste the bitter fruit."

As Luo Yan predicted, Qingbei team's two-pronged attack dealt a heavy blow to Yunan team. Within two minutes of the start, the score was 7-0, and Yunan team had not scored a single point.

The coaching staff of the Yunan team reacted quickly, calling the first timeout before the score widened significantly.

The Qingbei team forced the Yunan team to call a timeout to adjust their tactics right from the start, a development that surprised everyone, and the data in the comment section of the live broadcast room went crazy.

- The Qingbei team is finally showing some promise.

- I'm relieved that Sun Meng is back.

-Yu Nan's inside players were completely outmaneuvered by Lu Yu and Sun Meng.

-To be honest, the Yunan team looks very likely to lose this match.

- They fought a battle completely unprepared; I think the Yunan team is in real trouble.

-It's only just started, and the Qingbei team fans are already dancing.

Opening champagne at halftime will inevitably backfire.

The discussion in the live stream intensified until the director switched the camera back to the match, at which point it subsided a bit.

The timeout has ended, and the game has resumed.

As soon as she returned to the court, the Yu Nan team's point guard immediately organized a faster fast break. After accelerating past half-court, she passed the ball directly to Ji Yun.

Ji Yun used her physical advantage to dribble sideways and block Shu Juan's defensive position. Ji Yun's direct drive to the inside created space for the Yu Nan team to break through. After dribbling the ball twice sideways, she immediately passed the ball to center Ren Qiqi, who was also under the basket.

Without pausing, Ren Qiqi leaped high before Yang Lingling and Sun Meng could block her shot, raising her arm high and flicking her wrist to deftly tip the basketball into the basket.

"Hook shot! Ji Yun and Ren Qiqi's teamwork is brilliant!" Liu Du exclaimed.

"Yu Nan team made quick tactical adjustments, and fortunately, their strong inside penetration strategy proved effective, instantly turning the tide," Luo Yan said.

The competition between the two teams intensified, with the score fluctuating back and forth.

The triangular combination of Lu Yu, Chu Feiyu, and Sun Meng scored 65 points for the Qingbei team.

With 18 seconds remaining in the game, the score was 81-78, with Qingbei team leading by 3 points.

The final ball was in the possession of the Yunan team. How to withstand the inside attack on the final ball was a considerable challenge for the Qingbei team.

The point guard of the Yu Nan team ran to the three-point line, trying to pass the ball to Ji Yun again, but Sun Meng and Shu Juan's double defense blocked the passing path. She had to give up passing and try to break through Lu Yu's defense. She knew how strong Lu Yu's ball-handling ability was, and she couldn't afford to be careless...

Changing direction might be the only option. The point guard of the Yunan team suddenly stepped back, using the opening when he turned his body to pass the ball to Du Xianglan, who was receiving it inside.

"Wow--"

Gasps of surprise erupted from the audience.

The point guard of the Yunan team didn't even see when Lu Yu stepped out and intercepted the pass; it was as if it was just a fleeting moment when the basketball was caught by Lu Yu.

Its ability to change speed and direction is terrifying.

Lu Yu sprinted in the opposite direction, with Ji Yun and the point guard of the Yu Nan team chasing behind her. She didn't dare to hesitate and immediately passed the ball to Sun Meng when there was no one in front of her.

Sun Meng's running pace didn't slow down at all, and she pushed the ball again before Du Xianglan arrived.

The basketball flew straight towards Chu Feiyu.

The trio worked together seamlessly, passing and receiving the ball with swift and decisive movements.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Feiyu leaped up, caught the basketball, immediately jumped up from the spot, her body naturally stretched out with a slight backward tilt, and made a long shot.

Three point hit!

The Qingbei team returned victorious, with confetti fluttering in the stands and cheers resounding throughout.

"Match over! Qingbei team wins!" Liu Du's voice echoed across the stadium.

"Lu Yu and Sun Meng's combined efforts drew away most of the Yu Nan team's defense, and Chu Feiyu's high shooting percentage was terrifying," Feng Xu remarked with a smile.

Luo Yan assessed the situation and said, "Qingbei team has now tied the score, the two teams are tied 2-2, and the final game of the finals will determine the winner."

Liu Du said excitedly, "This season has been so exciting! Will Yu Nan team escape unscathed or will Qing Bei team come back from 0-2 down to win 3-2? We'll find out in two days!"
