The first game was over, lost, but it didn't dampen everyone's enthusiasm, the players trained more frequently, although there were no games in the past few days, but the students came every day to watch the game, sign in, cheer for the brothers' class or something.

I pinched the stopwatch every day, kept scores, and after a few days, I probably knew the rules of the basketball game, the referee's gestures, the actions commonly used by everyone, feints or something, I learned a lot of things, and slowly regained the feeling of high school, I got up at half past six every day, went to the playground to run, came back to wash, and then went to breakfast, and then went to morning self-study, no longer like before, I went to breakfast after morning self-study, and if there was a class, I didn't eat it directly.

This morning, I walked back to the dormitory, and found that Senior Abu was praying, and he could get up at about 6 o'clock in the morning in our dormitory, and the others were fine before 9 o'clock (I was going to study in the morning,). Quietly pick up my toiletries, to the water room to wash, now there are very few people who get up, the dormitory is still very quiet, after a while everyone gets up after the dormitory seems crowded, it is good to get up early. When I returned to the dormitory, Senior Abu was already finished, and he was folding up the mat and putting it in the cabinet.

"Would you like to go to breakfast with you?"

As I put my things away, I asked the senior if he hadn't eaten breakfast yet, but he must have washed up.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll pack my things first. He put the plastic cushion under the bed and was about to put his hat down.

At this time, some people have come to the canteen for breakfast, but there are not many people, and the morning in October in the northwest is already a little cold, and everyone is in a hurry to eat a hot breakfast in the canteen.

"Ansel's Eyes"

"Ansel's Eyes"

This is my transliteration, it should mean "hello", the senior met a fellow in the cafeteria, as soon as they met, they greeted first, shook hands, hugged, and started to communicate after a series of actions, using Uyghur or dialect, anyway, I didn't understand a word, they didn't seem to have met for a while, and they talked for a while. I just had to wait.

"Hello classmate Liu! You're a new brother! I haven't seen you before, my name is Azmat, Abu's classmate. ”

After they finished speaking, the senior politely greeted me and shook hands, probably for the sake of my good relationship with Senior Abu. But the classmates here are very welcoming, this is something I haven't met in the south, we usually just say hello when we meet, I lived in my uncle's house for three years in high school, and I don't even know the neighbor next door. It seems that the more economically developed the region, the less humane everyone has, and the more difficult and harsh the conditions are, the people are more affectionate and righteous. is like the lyrics in Luo Dayou's "Phenomenon 72 Changes":

"Seeing the tall buildings getting taller and taller, our human touch is getting thinner and thinner, and friends are becoming more and more polite, just because we see each other less and less. ”

A few days later, our class played again, against the 15 Project 2 class, thinking that I had watched the game between their class and the student union two days ago, and probably knew the level of their class (worse than our class), so I was not too worried, and their class also threw an own goal in the first game, adding 2 points to the student union team. And in the past few days, Quanfu and I have also practiced a triangle coordination tactic, and I and Ah Cai take turns to replace, so we can try to keep 3 people on the field, and it is estimated that a few of us will cooperate a little bit on the field.

Because I lost before, there is a great hope of winning this game, everyone is very hard, at the beginning of the whole court pressing, in the first quarter we played a small climax of 18/6, I even scored 7 points, because the level of their squad members is about the same as me, the height is below 170, the highest is about 170, I am really invincible under the rebound this time, I can't grab the opposite side of the board, I can't hold it down on the opposite side of the layup, and I also took two free throws.

In the second quarter, we had three points on the outside, and I and two girls who could shoot on the inside, and the score was once pulled to 32/8. Because there were worse classes for us to step on, everyone regained their confidence and even began to release water, after all, they were all classmates, and it was not good for the score to be too big.

In the third and fourth quarters, Wang Quanfu didn't play again, Wang Shiqi only played for a while in the fourth quarter, let the 15 Project 2 class give us practice skills and find confidence, Yan Yaoming also recovered, and the people on the field can cope with the situation, in the last quarter, I let Wang Jie go on the court, let him go up and play soy sauce, after all, he shouldn't have a chance to play in the student union later, let him play today, otherwise there may be no chance to play at the end of the game, after all, the student union is really not good to play.

Although the water was released in the last two quarters, the score was still nearly 20 points apart at the end of the game, and the final score was 44-26, I took 14 points myself, I couldn't believe it, before the game I thought we should win, but I didn't know what the result would be. Finally won a game, everyone was very excited, everyone finally lined up the photo, but Quanfu and I were not so excited, because we know the strength of the old fritters of the student union, not to mention that our minister is very powerful, and there is a senior who is also very accurate in three points, and the hope of winning them is not big, let's take a step and see a step!

We may be eliminated, but the 15 Project 1 class has been eliminated, and when they go down, it is similar to when we played in the last game, which is very tragic, maybe they didn't want to be able to advance at the beginning, but they just had the attitude of participating, because they had thought about abstaining because they were not evenly matched, but they still participated in the competition.

They're comforting each other, we're celebrating each other, and it's the end of every game, and we can't comfort them. The joy of the winner, the sorrow of the loser, this is the cruel reality, this is the game, there will always be winners and losers. But they have participated, worked hard, and gained a lot, which is competitive sports, which people love and hate.

This time the senior sister still didn't eat with us, 7,8 people from the sports department gathered a table on the third floor of the Qing restaurant, Xiaolong's class also won a game, and the other two buddies' classes also won a game, they will only play the second game after tomorrow, and they made a good start, after all, the level of the members of the sports department is not wasted, except for me, of course, I am engaged in clerical work, and I usually go to participate in some meetings that they are not willing to go to, and make documents or something.

Many seniors in the sophomore class have been abolished because of decadence in school for a year, and they may have a good level in their freshman year, but they can't say it clearly in their sophomore year, of course, there are still some who insist on playing basketball, such as our two deputy departments who joined the college basketball team and have been playing ball.

A few days later, we finally ushered in the game with the student union team, Brother Nan, Brother San, and the previous senior Zhu Rui also played, and there was a fat senior and a senior who I hadn't seen much before. Brother Bin has never played, and it is said that he does not play basketball. They don't seem to have a replacement.

The seniors are all juniors, and this kind of game has been played twice, especially Brother Nan, who has been playing in the academy team, has a lot of experience, has been controlling the rhythm from the beginning, never rushing to shoot, and keeps slipping us, but their shooting rate is amazingly high, in terms of cooperation, they have pulled us several streets, we are tired, but it has not had much effect, and it can be seen that we want to make fouls, let them be sent off, or let them tie their hands in the back, so they have been playing very smoothly and never aggressively, just looking for a half-day opportunity to shoot one。 But the shooting percentage was amazingly high, and they were 7 points ahead at the end of the first quarter, because the seniors were more able to play, they were all tall (the average height was about 10 centimeters taller than us), I didn't get much of a rebound, and I didn't have a shot, I could only pass the ball out, I didn't dare to go to the basket by myself, and I was blown a sports block and a foul on the beater.

"We have to play a little more nervously, force them to pitch, make them foul, otherwise we can't play at all, we don't rush to pitch, the hit rate is not good, the ball is too much and can't be thrown, the rhythm is in their hands. In the second quarter, we didn't have much advantage, they shot too well, everybody had shots, we just dragged it in the second quarter, and then we came back to the score in the third and fourth quarters. ”

I didn't play again in the second quarter because I didn't have a chance to rebound, I couldn't grab it, we needed a long shot and ball control. And just now because I grabbed the board, the collision was too intense, my lips and gums were elbowed, bleeding, and now I have been drinking water and rinsing my mouth. The girls in the student union are the previous senior sister Zhou Jie and Zhai Muchun, the head of the life department, and the girls in our class did not play an advantage, so they scored a goal by the wind, but the senior sisters scored 9 points, and the two of them have been restrained by the senior sisters, and the boys' performance is not optimistic, and they were pulled by 4 points after a quarter, 12 points behind.

In the third quarter, I was replaced in less than 6 minutes on the court, because I didn't have a chance to grab rebounds, and the opposite side shot in, and I couldn't grab our rebounds very much, and I had already committed 4 fouls, and I would be sent off the court after one foul, of course, the opposite senior Zhu Rui also committed four times, and everyone wanted to send him down, so that there would be no one in the student union, but after 4 fouls, Senior Zhu Rui was no longer playing center, and he couldn't find a chance to foul him, and he himself was very careful. The others only committed two or three fouls at most, and it was difficult to send them off.

However, because they did not have a substitute, they began to lose their physical strength after a few quarters, Wang Quanfu saw this, and asked everyone to exchange physical strength with them, and strive to drag them down in the fourth quarter, so as to pull back the score, and even overtake, now they are only 7 points behind, there is hope, and the situation seems to have improved a little.

Because it was noon, the sun in the northwest was still a little hot, it may also be because I was too tired or too excited, nervous, and I kept sweating, and Luo Yixuan couldn't stop taking two tissues, so I had to rummage through my handkerchief in my small satchel, this sweat absorption may be a little better, because I brought a backpack, so 511 these classmates' mobile phone wallets or something are in my bag, and I looked for a while before I found my handkerchief in a compartment, there are two, one has not been opened, this is kept for backup, there was originally an umbrella, which was bought just after arriving at school, although it does not rain often in the northwest, but as my mother once said to me:

"I have to be prepared for everything, I have to carry a handkerchief all the time, and there are many uses for tissues, and I often bring an umbrella (it often rains in Guizhou), even if it doesn't rain, I can use it as the sun. You don't need it, you can give it to those who need it. ”

Because it may be used to block the sun is more likely, I bought a little pink umbrella, which is similar to the sun umbrella, which is generally used by girls, and often holds umbrellas for girls in our class when I go out, and the sun in the northwest is really poisonous, although I don't care. Now it's lent to the senior sister and Caixia, who is recording the score.

I picked up the handkerchief and began to wipe my sweat, and when I was done, I handed the new handkerchief to Luo Yixuan,

"Thank you for the tissue, this is for you. ”

"This isn't good!"

"It's nothing, just thank you for the paper towel just now, I didn't run out of your paper towel, I can only give you this, I still have a few more, anyway, you often help me." Thank you!"

"Alright then, thanks!"

As she spoke, she straightened her sweat-soaked oblique bangs and her long hair that was a little disheveled, and in an instant, my obsessive-compulsive disorder was committed again.

"Damn it!"

I cursed inwardly, clenched my fists, and turned my attention to the field.

I've always heard that you have a handkerchief, but when I finally saw it today, I didn't give me one. ”

"I'll give you another one next time. ”

"Forget it, don't want it, eccentric, hum!"

I knew she was joking, but I felt embarrassed and forgot about watching the game and didn't speak.

In the last quarter, the game has entered the white heat, the score is also approaching, the seniors are also starting to panic, Quan Fu has scored two goals in a row, he has played the feeling, the seniors feel that they can't hold it down, and they start to defend, and the score is even narrowed to two points, but when the seniors adjust their tactics, we no longer score, but lose two points, the handkerchief in my hand has been pinched and deformed, but I don't know at all, and I don't care how the sweat flows.

"There are still 3 minutes left until the end of the game!"

The seniors are dragging their feet, they are already very tired, and they try to hold the ball as long as possible when they get the ball.

"Work hard, we can still overtake, the last 3 minutes!"

Quanfu scored another goal, but after passing the ball several times, when everyone had to continue to drag because of them, Brother Nan suddenly shot directly and scored another goal. The score was pulled to four points.

"One minute until the end of the game!" Shiqi and Quanfu have been looking for opportunities to burst in, trying to get a ball.

"Beep!" The No. 6 hitter of the blue team (student council) will be punished twice. In order not to let Quanfu go to the basket, the third brother chose to play a hitter, but fortunately, Quanfu lived up to expectations and scored two free throws. After serving, Brother Nan began to drag on time, and everyone surrounded him.

"Thirty seconds left until the end of the race!"

Although there were no 24-second violations, the ball was thrown more than a dozen seconds later. didn't score, Quanfu grabbed the ball, but was artificially under the basket by two people, and the ball couldn't be passed.

"10,9,8,7............" Quanfu threw the ball hard to Shigui on the outside. The defenders immediately followed, just to the three-point line,

“2，…… 1”

The ball was shot, only to hit the rebound.

"1,0, the game is over. ”

It's over, it's just two points away, Quan Fu knelt under the basket, lowered his head, and didn't stand up, when he passed the ball out, it should be like this, and now he shouldn't be able to get up, Brother Nan went over and pulled him up,

"It's already good to play like this, after all, the student council is a junior, and it's been two years, and you should be stronger next year, and it doesn't matter if you lose now. Besides, if you win, wherever we put our face, it will be the minister's chairman's, and I'm afraid you won't be embarrassed to win. ”

Jeon Fu didn't say anything, in his opinion, losing is losing, there is nothing to say, he is very unwilling to admit defeat, especially in basketball. Everyone is comforting each other, and the girls have been comforting us, in their opinion, winning or losing is not so important, and they feel that we have performed very well, because the student union has been one or two for so many years, and it is not wrong to lose to them. Or maybe we just care more and feel like it's our own problem. After shaking hands, I smoked under the basket with Quanfu, Shiqi, and Cai, and everyone didn't speak.

"Let's go back to dinner first, it's too late, we still have classes in the afternoon! We'll have to pack up later, and the game next to us isn't over yet." ”

I talked to the people in our class who didn't leave, there is no need to waste time here, a few of them don't speak, and it is more appropriate for me to say it now, because I am in the sports department with Quanfu, and I really have to pack up my things. In the end, we didn't go to dinner, but went straight back to the dormitory, and prepared to take a shower later.

Along the way, no one said anything, and they were in a bad mood. I don't think it's a big deal now, I thought it would be difficult to win students, I know my level, so I don't have self-confidence, and I don't have much hope. Nor did he say anything comforting.

Although I lost the game, but these games and these few days of watching and learning, I rose up a love for basketball, which I had never had before, although I have always been eager to become stronger, Jeon Fu and Shi Qi were also selected for the hospital basketball team. It is also for the competition in the past few days, we often train and communicate together, which greatly pulls in the relationship between everyone, and the whole class has also united, no longer knowing anyone like before, and slowly condensed into a collective, with a collective sense of honor, for the biological science class. That's not all we can gain, maybe that's the charm of sports.
