Chapter Ninety-Nine: Showing Your Edge
Jiang Chao laughed helplessly when he heard Jordan finish speaking. Looking at Jordan's expectant eyes, Jiang Chao naturally couldn't refuse.
"Hmm...... Where's the jersey?" Jiang Chao asked.
Jordan's expression lit up, "I knew you wouldn't refuse me! You can wear mine, I have two numbers in the team, one is my own number 25, which I wear when I play." The other thing is your number 13, which I wear when I train, and when I wear number 13, I feel like I'm playing with you. ”
Guo Decheng made an exaggerated disgusting expression when he heard it: "I'll go...... It's so numb that I get goosebumps. ”
Jiang Chao and Jordan laughed. After laughing, Jiang Chao couldn't help but be moved and looked at Jordan deeply.
......
Jiang Chao changed his jersey, the players from both sides stood on the field, and a friend of Ronnie came to be the referee.
Guo Decheng shouted loudly from the sidelines: "Come on!"
Jiang Chao stood in the backfield and observed the players on the field for a short time.
On the other side, except for the point guard, who is about 1.9 meters, everyone else is two meters tall, especially the core of this team, small forward Ronnie, who is 2.05 meters tall and has an amazing arm span, looking like a monster. The common denominator of the opposing players is that they are all strong and all black. Standing in front of them, Jiang Chao felt oppressed.
Look at your own side again, three white people plus yourself and Jordan. Neither of the whites is a native player of a beautiful country, two in Lithuania and one in Slovenia. The three whites are all very tall, especially the Slovenian center forward, who is 2.15 meters tall, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a cover. However, it seems that their mobility is much worse.
I have to say that this game is definitely the highest level of basketball competition that Jiang Chao has participated in. However, he did not show the slightest cowardice, but became excited, eagerly looking at the players on both sides.
Jiang Chao is naturally a point guard.
Jumping ball, the Slovenian center did not disappoint, the tallest on the court he successfully got the ball, and the white small forward received the ball and hesitated to pass the ball to Jordan.
Jordan said angrily: "What are you doing with me, pass to the point guard!" and threw the ball to Jiang Chao.
Jiang Chao smiled helplessly when he received the ball, and began to hold the ball and slowly move forward. At this time, players on both sides were paying attention to Jiang Chao, except for Jordan, no one thought that he would have a brilliant performance, but there was a faint expectation in his heart.
Fortunately, after seeing Jiang Chao controlling the ball, everyone's mood settled down a little. At least from the point of view of ball control, Jiang Chao is very skillful.
But it's not enough to just have possession! The point guard of the Ronnie team posted up, and he wanted Jiang Chao, a yellow-skinned kid, to see what defense is!
Jiang Chao casually dribbled to three points away, and Jiang Chao could see the movements of the opposing point guard.
"Jiang Chao!" Jordan shouted, quickly cutting inside.
The black point guard subconsciously glanced at Jordan, and at this moment, Jiang Chao's eyes suddenly flashed, and his feet suddenly exerted force, and the whole person rushed out like lightning.
From the slow rhythmic dribbling to the first step that far exceeds the reaction speed of ordinary people, everyone has seen how amazing Jiang Chao's explosive power is!
Caught with one's pants down!
In an instant, Jiang Chao had completely passed the black point guard, so the other players had to come up to make up for the defense, and the opponent's defense had been completely torn apart.
Jiang Chao made a gorgeous emergency stop, dribbled with his back to avoid the bag, turned his back to the basket, and then threw the ball out without looking back, he knew that Jordan would definitely appear in that position
Jiang Chao's pass passed past the two defenders and exceeded the basket in height, and at this moment, a big hand appeared and caught the basketball just right-
Bang dang!
The basketball was smashed into the basket, and it wasn't Jordan who caught the ball?
Jordan, who fell to the ground, roared angrily, and then quickly retreated to defense.
And this round is less than a dozen seconds.
When serving in the backcourt, several black players on Ronnie's team looked at each other a few times, and they all saw the incredible in each other's eyes.
Obviously, Jiang Chao has proved that he is absolutely qualified to stand on this court! First of all, the most necessary ball control ability for point guards, Jiang Chao definitely belongs to the level of the first gear in the league. Then there's the speed at the time of the breakthrough just now, which is not inferior to the first-line defenders at all. The most surprising thing is his passing vision, after opening up the defensive line, he passed the ball to Jordan who cut in very smoothly and naturally without using his eyes.
If it weren't for luck, this Jiang Chao would indeed be as Jordan said, and he would not be really qualified to play in the NCAA Division I!
However, if you are too short, you will suffer both defensively and physically. It depends on whether Jiang Chao's strength is good or not, and it depends on him to defend again!
I have to say that the Los Angeles University basketball team deserves to be the resident team of March Madness, and there is no weak team on the team. The point guard opposite Jiang Chao dribbled the ball across the half court, and Jiang Chao pressed step by step, but he never found a chance to steal.
Steady, too stable, the basic skills are too solid!
Then, under the organization of the point guard, the basketball began to be transmitted back and forth, and various dazzling runs pulled the position of the defender. But if you look at it from God's perspective, you will find that no matter how the opponent runs to block and dismantle, Jiang Chao will always appear in the most reasonable position to cut off their offensive line.
Ronnie began to be surprised, there is indeed something in this river!
Defense, more than just a clash of muscles. In fact, the ability to read the opponent's offensive line is even more important!
Jiang Chao's brain was running rapidly, everyone's position and movement trajectory flashed quickly in his mind, and this feeling of using his brain heartily made Jiang Chao indescribably happy, and dopamine was not short of secretion.
What a fun sport!
At that moment, Jordan's white small forward made a mistake and lost Ronnie, who received the ball in a tricky position, and a few steps in front of him was an unguarded basket.
But it's too late to defend back.
Ronnie slapped the ball, then jumped up with both feet, and the hand holding the ball went high over the basket and dunked it. The Slovenian centre-forward wanted to make up for it, but it was already difficult to reach Ronnie's ball in that position.
At that moment, a figure leaped high and flew past the white center, and then stopped in front of Ronnie's hand holding the ball.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Ronnie is two meters and five, his height and arm span are top-notch, his button, the height of the basketball has exceeded the basket by dozens of centimeters, and Jiang Chao is so short, but he can reach this height from behind, how terrifying should his bounce be?
It all happened between the lightning and the flint, Jiang Chao's hand slapped the basketball from the side, and Ronnie tried to stabilize his body, stumbling and falling, but fortunately did not fall.
And basketball, which was blocked by Jiang Chao, was fanned far away.
