GOLD COAST, Australia, July 18 (Xinhua) -- China's Blue National Basketball team went down fighting against Australia's Brisbane Bullets on the Gold Coast on Tuesday night.
Both teams started the game hard, with a lack of offensive firepower from either side as the teams struggled early on to find baskets, but two-time CBA champion Li Gen asserted himself in the early going by grinding in the post, and putting away a considerable pressure from the on-ball defender.
After giving up points in the restricted area for the first five minutes

The big man asserted himself in the game and made up for lost ground - after missing the matchup in Melbourne - firing in low post points at will, with the highlight of his play in the first being an absolutely devastating roll move into a powerful dunk.
Ren Junfei closed out the first with a three-pointer in the final seconds to send the game into the second quarter with China holding onto a 6-point lead.
The start of the second was scrappy, with both sides playing a loose style of physical basketball that led to turnovers.
This style of play continued most of the way through the second quarter, with Han keeping the game close as the Bullets went on a scoring run - with the score at the half a tie at 43-43.
The third quarter started well for China, with Wu Qian with an early two on one fast break score to start the quarter.
Two minutes in, Li Gen hit a sublime corner three - and he parked on the opposite side on the next possession - but was unable to convert after some swift passing movement from his teammates.
