After a three-minute break, the second quarter began.

In a normal professional game, the opening period of the second quarter is mostly dominated by substitute players, but in the opening stage of the second quarter of this exhibition game, both the red and blue teams put out a very strong lineup. The blue team sent all three professional players and Xiao Yao on the court, and the red team also sent all three professional players and Zhuo Zhiyuan, who played about ten minutes in the first quarter before being replaced. In addition, Zhang Chao of the blue team and Shi Jingsheng of the red team are also young and strong, good height, and played fairly well in the first quarter.

Since the blue team won the ball at the beginning of the first quarter, the red team had the ball at the beginning of the second quarter, and the red team took the lead in attacking.

The BLU team is still playing a joint defense strategy, but because Evans made consecutive shots to chase points at the end of the first quarter and felt very good, the BLU team's defenders also made some adjustments and put Bielsa on the outside to defend Evans. At the same time, because Xiao Yao performed well in the fast-break ball in the first quarter, the head coach put Xiao Yao in the outside defensive position, and Zhang Chao, Chen Nuo, and Guo Qi stood in the three defensive positions closer to the basket.

The red team is still controlled by professional player Yu Junzhe. After advancing to the front court with the ball, Yu Junzhe still passed the ball to foreign aid Evans first. Facing the defense of his old rival Bielsa, Evans did not force a shot, but quickly passed the ball to Zhuo Zhiyuan in the bottom corner.

Zhuo Zhiyuan took a step to the basket along the baseline after receiving the ball, and then faced Guo Qi's defense and threw a backward jumper. The basketball smashed on the basket and popped up, but Xu Yue, who swam to the inside, overwhelmed Chen Nuo and grabbed the rebound in the front court, and immediately threw a small shot after landing, dodged Chen Nuo's block, and threw the ball under the basket.

At 18-17, the red team overtook the blue team in the score for the first time.

The blue team serves from the baseline. Chen Nuo caught the basketball that fell from the basket, stood outside the baseline with one foot and threw the basketball to Guo Qi in front of him, and then dropped the other foot he raised on the court and ran towards the opponent's half.

What is quite surprising is that Guo Qi did not dribble and advance after receiving the ball, but threw the basketball to Xiao Yao, who was standing near the three-point line of his side, and ran to the opponent's half court empty-handed. This also means that in the presence of Guo Qi, the blue team actually handed over the task of ball control organization to Xiao Yao.

However, considering Xiao Yao's performance of five assists in the first quarter, it seems reasonable to do so. Thinking of Xiao Yao's wonderful passes in the first quarter, the audience couldn't help but get excited.

Slowly advancing to the front court with the ball, Xiao Yao did not raise his left hand to draw a circle to ask his teammates to run, but stretched out his finger and pointed to the floor in front of him. Guo Qi rolled his eyes, and he was already in the bottom corner, and he went around to the left side of Shi Jingsheng, the red team player who was defending Xiao Yao on the outside, and crossed his fists with his hands in front of his chest, helping Xiao Yao to do a single cover.

Xiao Yao immediately dribbled to the right. Yu Junzhe, who followed Guo Qi to the outside line, immediately switched positions with his teammates and defended Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao did not break through Yu Junzhe, who did not completely stand in the defensive position, but quickly passed the basketball to Guo Qi, who turned around and ran to the free throw line after doing a single block cover, completing a standard blocking and dismantling cooperation.

At this time, Shi Jingsheng, who had changed his defense, had been left behind by Guo Qi, and Guo Qi jumped up after receiving the ball and made a shooting posture. Evans, who was under the basket, had to step forward to make up for Guo Qi and jump up to block. Facing Evans' jumping defense, Guo Qi did not shoot, but passed the basketball in the air to Zhang Chao, who cut into the basket. Zhang Chao was behind Evans when he received the ball, in a state of being under the basket and unguarded, and steadily shot a close-range shot under the basket.

Although there was no direct assist, Xiao Yao and Guo Qi's blocking and dismantling cooperation was still very beautiful. Xiao Yao was very decisive and quick to get the ball, and the position of the pass was also in place. After Guo Qi received the ball, he could jump and shoot almost without adjustment, even if Evans made up for it, there was still a certain distance from Guo Qi, Guo Qi would be difficult to be blocked even if he shot directly, but he chose a more secure way and passed the ball to his teammates closer to the basket. For this wonderful cooperation of the blue team, the audience also held a round of applause.

At 19-18, the blue team also managed to exceed the score again.

In the next few rounds, both teams suddenly lost their touch collectively and did not score.

Although Xiao Yao also passed a few good balls during this period and gave the basketball to his teammates in the open position, the red team tightened the basket, and the blue team got a few open shooting opportunities in the middle and long distances on the outside, and the teammates with poor hands did not shoot, so Xiao Yao's assists also stayed at five in the first quarter. During this period, Xiao Yao, who had not made a shot in the first quarter, also tried to shoot by himself, but unfortunately he did not shoot his own mid- and long-range shots in the open position.

However, Xiao Yao is not without gains. Although there is no change in scoring and assists, Xiao Yao has a good sense of recycling and protecting rebounds, and his judgment of the landing after the basketball pops up is also very good, and he grabbed two defensive rebounds that bounced far away after the opponent's shot smashed into the basket.

It wasn't until more than two minutes later that the score changed again.

It was a red team attack.

Due to the poor collective feeling of the two teams, the blue team also strengthened the defense under the basket, and the red team played more patiently and did not blindly shoot from the outside. After a few passes, Zhuo Zhiyuan, who took the ball, rushed to the basket of the blue team with the ball. Facing Guo Qi who jumped high under the basket and was under the hood, Zhuo Zhiyuan, who had already started with the ball, did not force his shot, but threw the basketball to Yu Junzhe at the top of the outside three-point arc.

Xiao Yao, who was originally slightly retracted and stood at the free throw line to defend, inserted an arrow step into the passing line between Zhuo Zhiyuan and Yu Junzhe, and stretched out his left hand to block Zhuo Zhiyuan's basket.

Xiao Yao's interception did not directly copy the basketball into his hand, but hit the basketball in front of him. Because he was already close to the three-point line, there was no one in front of Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao immediately rushed up two steps quickly, controlled the basketball he played in front of him, and dribbled directly to the opponent's half.

"Xiao Yao breaks the ball and breaks the ball quickly!" He Jian shouted. Seeing Xiao Yao break the ball, the two commentators were also excited.

Yu Junzhe, who was in front of the side, saw Zhuo Zhiyuan's passing action, was moving forward to catch the ball, and was running under the basket, waiting for him to stop and then turn around to chase Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao had already gone far away, and there was no way to chase at all.

But he can't catch up, there are others who can chase. Evans, who was standing at a 45-degree angle outside the three-point line, couldn't intercept Xiao Yao's broken ball, but he was not too far away from Xiao Yao at this time, and he didn't need to turn 180 degrees. Seeing Xiao Yao rushing to his own basket with the ball, Evans actually chased after Xiao Yao.

Evans chased after him. Zhou Qun said with some surprise, "With such an active chase, it seems that Evans is really playing very seriously!"

After entering the three-point line, Xiao Yao held the ball in both hands and started to make a layup. After stepping into the three-second zone in the second step, Xiao Yao, who rose into the air, held the ball in his right hand, straightened his arm, and raised the basketball high. At this time, Evans, who was running fast, had already rushed behind Xiao Yao, raised his arms and jumped up.

Evans behind him is chasing very closely, and this ball is in danger of being chased and blocked. Zhou Qun said with some concern.

As if sensing the situation behind him, Xiao Yao's right hand of the basketball held high did not make a move, but tightened his chest and abdomen in the air, and withdrew his right hand in front of him. In this way, Evans, who is chasing defense, must have no chance to block, but Xiao Yao, who has begun to fall, has already reached the bottom of the rebound, and is still flying outside the court, and it seems that there is no angle to shoot.

Xiao Yao didn't make a move, and threw the ball behind him... Good shot! Bilsa followed up with a slam dunk in the air!" He Jian shouted excitedly.

Although it didn't cover Xiao Yao, Evans also successfully blocked Xiao Yao's shot angle, which looked like a successful defense. Unexpectedly, before Xiao Yao landed, he handed the basketball to his left hand, stretched his left arm straight behind him, and threw the basketball into the air behind him.

When Xiao Yao broke the ball, Bielsa, who was defending Evans, was the closest teammate to Xiao Yao in the blue team. Seeing Evans chasing Xiao away, Bielsa also followed behind and rushed to the opponent's half. It's just that he started slower than Evans and fell behind the two. Seeing that the basketball was thrown into the air by Xiao Yao, Birsa, who had already begun to slow down, immediately accelerated again, jumped high and grabbed the basketball in the air, and dunked the basketball into the basket.

"Wow~" Seeing this wonderful aerial relay dunk, many spectators at the scene jumped up from their seats, waving their hands and cheering.

Bilsa, who completed the aerial relay dunk, was also excited, and proudly punched his chest with his fist to the audience.

Xiao Yao on the other side was more miserable. Xiao Yao, who wanted to pass the ball, tightened his chest and abdomen in the air, and forcibly stopped some of the forward momentum, while Evans chased with all his strength and completely let go of his speed to pounce forward. Xiao Yao, who flew outside the baseline and had not yet fully landed, was hit by Evans, who was unable to recover behind him, in the air. was hit by a big black man of more than 200 pounds, Xiao Yao's center of gravity in the air was completely lost, where could he still stand, and after landing on the ground, he barely stumbled twice, and then turned over and fell into a group of photographers sitting under the basket with cameras.

"Ah~ Xiao Yao was hit by Evans when he fell, and fell directly into the pile of people under the basket. Hopefully he won't get hurt. Zhou Qun said a little nervously.

"Woo~" Seeing Xiao Yao fly out, the audience at the scene also exclaimed.

Hearing this exclamation, Birsa immediately turned his head to look under the basket, and found a figure in a blue jersey among the chaotic photographers, and quickly walked over, and Evans stretched out a hand to pull Xiao Yao up from the crowd.

Stretched out his hands to take the hands of Evans and Bielsa, and after being pulled up by them, Xiao Yao immediately let go of the hands of the two, jumped on the spot, and smiled to indicate that he was fine.

Evans saw that Xiao Yao was fine, smiled and patted Xiao Yao's shoulder, and gave a thumbs up before leaving to pick up the basketball on the ground. Bielsa smiled and put his left hand on Xiao Yao's head, and patted his right hand on the back of his left hand, Xiao Yao shrank his head exaggeratedly.

"Haha, it looks like Xiao Yao is fine. Zhou Qun breathed a sigh of relief, and explained to the audience by the way, "Patting the head is a common celebration for many players in Europe and the United States, and Bielsa is older than Xiao Yao in terms of age, fame and basketball status, which is Biersa's expression of appreciation and affection for Xiao Yao." And Birsa also deliberately put his own hand on Xiao Yao's head, and actually patted his own hand, which can be regarded as taking into account the cultural differences between the two countries. ”

Xiao Yao had the experience of studying as an exchange student in the United States for a year, and should be able to understand this kind of move. He Jian also continued, "He deliberately made such an exaggerated expression, but he was actually performing." ”

"This ball just now is really wonderful! In the case of being blocked from the angle of the shot, Xiao Yao can still pass the ball out and give his teammates a chance to dunk in the air relay, this adaptability is really not simple!" After explaining, He Jian commented on the ball just now.

"Did you notice? Xiao Yao has already brought this game a little differently. Especially when he's on the pitch, the change is even more pronounced. Zhou Qun smiled and continued, "Evans and Bielsa both said in their pre-match interviews that they would give more opportunities to others to perform, and at the beginning of the game, both of them were playing "old ball" posture. But Xiao Yao broke the ball and attacked quickly, and Evans actually chased back to defend. In the first stage, the red team chased the momentum very hard, and I guess Evans didn't want the momentum of the blue team to be brought up by Xiao Yao again. ”

"Yes," He Jian nodded, "Bielsa followed the fast attack, probably not because of Evans, because they are the attacking side, and Evans is going to defend." He followed quickly, probably due to the influence of Xiao Yao's whimsical pass during the fast attack in the first quarter, so he followed up so actively, probably thinking about what kind of beautiful cooperation Xiao Yao could play with him. Of course, Bielsa should not be disappointed, this aerial relay dunk is very exciting!"

Bielsa's dunk not only succeeded in igniting the enthusiasm of the audience, but also lifted the spirits of the players on the court.

Evans walked outside the baseline with the basketball and threw the basketball directly to Yu Junzhe, who returned to the center line to receive the ball. Yu Junzhe took advantage of the fact that Xiao Yao and Bielsa had not yet returned to defend in place, and directly launched an attack on the dribble.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to play four and three, Yu Junzhe rushed into the basket of the blue team and distributed the ball to Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was unguarded outside the three-second zone. After Zhuo Zhiyuan received the ball, he deceived Zhang Chao who rushed up to defend with a shooting feint, dribbled the ball into the inner line, and faced Chen Nuo who came up to make up the defense.

Chen Nuo did not occupy a favorable defensive position, but his arms were still held high. Zhuo Zhiyuan was also interfered with by some Chen Nuo when he shot, but the layup that squeezed Chen Nuo did not score.

Zhang Chao won the rebound and quickly passed to Xiao Yao, who had already run back to his own half.

Seeing that Xiao Yao turned around and dribbled back after receiving the ball, everyone rushed to the red team's half.

Everyone was running back, but not as fast. At this time, the formation on the field was relatively loose, although it was not a counterattack with the ball, but it was also an opportunity to attack quickly, but Xiao Yao's dribble was not very fast, but the medium-speed dribble was advanced to the opponent's half.

When he was still two steps away from the three-point line, Xiao Yao's right hand on the dribble suddenly rose and slammed the basketball to the floor in front of him. After the basketball rebounded, it flew high, and when it landed near the red team's baseline, it was not far from the basket. Just when most people's attention was attracted by the basketball in the air, Guo Qi suddenly rushed out from behind Yu Junzhe, jumped high and grabbed the basketball in the air, and then pressed it with one arm and dunked the basketball into the basket.

"Oh my God! another!" The audience at the scene saw this ball and immediately went crazy!
