Chapter 248: The Decisive Moment
The intensive training that Bai Ye carried out during the Spring Festival was effective, and the harsh practice kept him in good competitive condition. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info so he can suddenly exert his strength and score consecutive points to help the team gain an advantage.
However, with 35 seconds and 1 point, the situation could be reversed at any time, and it seems that Lizhong does not have a good way to deal with Huifu on the defensive end.
On the Huifu side, except for Xie Gezhi, every point has the ability to shoot three, and Xie Gezhi is in excellent condition, resulting in Lizhong's side almost not being able to find the focus of defense.
So when it was timeout, Gao Jing could only keep reminding the players to concentrate and protect the backcourt rebounds, and at the same time replaced Zeng Hongzhi.
Ah Zeng was obviously dissatisfied with his performance, a rare look of frustration appeared on his face, and he didn't bother to pick his nose again, but sat on the bench and listened solemnly to Gao Jing making the final arrangements.
If Lizhong loses this game, then Ah Zeng's mistake just now is the first pot.
But fortunately, the team was still ahead, and before the timeout ended, Zeng Hongzhi grabbed Wang Yourong's hand tightly and said something in his mouth.
"Ah Zeng, what are you doing?" Wang Yourong asked a little strangely.
"I have a hunch that you will be the key to the outcome of the match, so I'm going to pass on my luck to you! Pass it! ”
Zeng Hongzhi babbled and passed on his "luck" to Wang Yourong, and Wang Yourong came on the stage in a daze.
In the last 35 seconds, the audience stood up, many took out their mobile phones to shoot, and everyone waited for the miracle moment to happen.
Vulture Wang Minqi squatted on the sidelines, obviously he was also very nervous, although he has experienced more than 20 years of coaching career, it stands to reason that he has long been calm, but this game is different.
Throughout the second half, Wang Minqi barely called a timeout, did not direct the players to play, and they were able to play to the current situation, all under the leadership of Xie Gezhi.
This is a game that belongs to Xie Gezhi, the team completely revolves around Xie Gezhi, he did not follow Mao Zhiyuan's style of play, but played his own basketball according to his own characteristics.
That's why Wang Minqi was so nervous, because he knew that this might be Xie Gezhi's last glory, and when he just paused, Xie Gezhi told him that his ankle might not work.
"Coach, I may not be able to, but no matter what happens later, don't replace me, please."
Xie Gezhi whispered this to the coach and did not let his teammates hear him.
When he returned to the court, he could feel a dull pain in his ankle, which was not a good sign, and it was likely that the old injury had recurred due to the power of his left foot during the basket confrontation just now.
But he can't care so much, he has to finish this game anyway, he wants to win, and as for the future road, then think about it later.
At this time, the referee blew the whistle, and in the final decisive battle, Cai Xiuwen sent the sideline ball, he chose a long hanging and hung directly into the three-point line, Chen Li received the ball, and Lizhong immediately clamped him.
Chen immediately took out the ball, Sun Li received the ball on the outside, the ball did not stay in his hand, and was directly stuffed into the three-second zone, Xie Gezhi got the ball, he pushed Wang Yourong hard, turned over and hooked his hand!
This is an ingenious and tacit tactic, Chen Li attracts in the low post, Sun Li transfers in the high post, and Xie Gezhi inserts it into the basket with the fastest speed, a very lethal position.
Shegezhi caught the ball steadily, and the big horse spun around with a golden stride, ready to finish the attack with a small hook.
But at the moment of jumping, he hesitated, because his ankle was really sore, and it was such a hesitation, his shooting speed was slow, and Wang Yourong unceremoniously blocked Xie Gezhi's hook hand!
The ball flew out, and the players on both sides rushed up, and the two sides scrambled.
In a pile of hands and feet, Chen Li grabbed the ball, and in the face of the chaotic situation, he chose to directly raise his hand to jump shot.
Then, Wang Yourong once again ruthlessly rejected Hui Fu's attack, and he took a big risk for the second time to cover Chen Li's shot.
Lizhong's substitutes were almost about to jump up from the bench, but the crisis was not resolved, because the ball happened to fly into Sun Li's hands again.
Seemingly afraid of Wang Yourong's crazy block, Sun Li dribbled outward, and then he immediately killed a horse pistol, and suddenly turned around from the middle to kill the inside.
Facing Wang Yourong, who rushed up again, Sun Li suddenly threw a high pass, Xie Gezhi jumped high, received the ball in the air, and then dunked it heavily into the basket.
With a shocking dunk, Xie Gezhi endured ankle pain and dunked the ball into the basket, and when he fell from the let go, he landed with his right foot before daring to land with his left foot.
He looked up at the timer, and there were seven seconds left until the end of the race.
Seven seconds, Xie Gezhi knew that he might only have those seven seconds left in this arena. Whether the team wins or loses, his ankle will not be able to support him until the next game.
At this time, Lizhong called a timeout, and Xie Gezhi tried his best to look fine, and slowly moved his feet back to the bench.
His teammates all stepped forward to high-five him and beat his chest, unaware that their captain was in great pain.
On the other side, the players in Lizhong are also suffering, their two defenses have been done to the extreme, but luck is not on their side, and the ball always falls into the hands of Huifu Middle School.
Gao Jing forced herself to calm down and assigned a tactic to the team, but everyone was expressionless, obviously, the pressure was too much.
Unlike the game against Changshu Sports Workers, in that game they chased points all the way, and the momentum became more and more vigorous, and there was no pause for the last ball, which did not give the players a chance to feel the pressure at all.
In this game, they went from leading to falling behind, to being one step away from victory, and now standing on the edge of the cliff again, and this big ups and downs will feel the pressure on anyone.
Wang Yourong sat on the bench, covering his face with a towel, obviously he was frustrated, he had done it to the end, two blocks almost killed the game, but the last leakage led to a failure.
"Wang Yourong, the game is not over yet, cheer me up!"
It was Zeng Hongzhi who spoke, and he patted Wang Yourong's shoulder hard, and then took his hand again.
"Just now I lent you luck, and you built two, now I'll lend you some more, you still have to work hard!" Zeng Hongzhi held Wang Yourong's hand tightly and said.
Then, not only Zeng Hongzhi, but also Ren Zhaoliang, Li Yong, and Dai Haoran on the side all stretched out their hands and put them on the back of Wang Yourong's hand.
They didn't do this because Gao Jing asked Wang Yourong to complete the last attack, but because everyone didn't want Wang Yourong to be sad because of his performance, he had already done a good job.
Wang Yourong's eyes almost overflowed with tears, but he still held back, the game was not over yet, and he still had victory to fight for.
At this point, the timeout ended, and the last seven seconds, the seven seconds that decided the fate of both teams.
As the two teams returned to the pitch, there was a round of applause in recognition of their outstanding performance today, earning the respect of the crowd and fans regardless of who won or lost.
Lu Yuan stood outside the sideline to serve, and his mind was practicing the tactics Gao Jing had just arranged over and over again.
"Pass the ball to Bai Ye, cut it inside, if there is a chance, Bai Ye will pass the ball to himself, and then directly break through to the basket and make a layup, with the fastest speed, the fastest speed."
Lu Yuan thought silently in his heart, this was not the first time he had faced such a situation, so his mood was extremely calm, his ears could only hear the referee's whistle, the communication of his teammates, the shouts of his opponents, and everything else was blocked by him.
Everything seemed to slow down in his eyes, and his attention was highly focused, observing every bit of change in his opponents and teammates on the field.
Bai Ye stood at 45 degrees on the left three-point line, Wang Yourong was also on the left bottom line, Wu Peng was ambushed outside the three-point line on the right, and Zou Zhou stood at the top of the arc to respond at any time.
There were two people staring at Bai Ye, who might step forward at any time to wrap up, Cai Xiuwen stood in front of him, jumping around trying to block the pass.
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle sounded, and the ball was handed over to Lu Yuan, and Hui Fu immediately stepped forward to wrap Bai Ye and not give him the ball.
Bai Ye reacted quickly and beckoned Zou Zhou to step forward, the two made a cross transposition, Zou Zhou used his body to resist the two people, and Lu Yuan immediately passed the ball to Bai Ye.
After passing the ball, Lu Yuan stepped into the court, ran in the direction of Bai Ye, cut into the three-point line from the front, and Bai Ye turned around and passed the ball directly into Lu Yuan's hands!
Lu Yuan holds the ball and runs directly to the basket!
Cai Xiuwen was blocked by Bai Ye, no one followed him, and he faced Xie Gezhi directly under the basket!
Lu Yuan and Xie Gezhi's knight duel.
Xie Gezhi felt his ankle burning, but he had to step forward to stop Lu Yuan, he hadn't been able to stop this No. 18 kid today, he knew that Lu Yuan had excellent bounce and speed, as well as super ability to stay in the air, he had to cover Lu Yuan completely.
Ignoring the pain in his ankle, Xie Ge lunged forward, trying to contain Lu Yuan before he could take off.
The two jumped almost at the same time, Lu Yuan jumped high into the air, Xie Gezhi also jumped in pain, the two bodies collided together, and the referee did not blow the whistle.
Xie Gezhi raised his hands high, blocking the front tightly, and Lu Yuan barely had room to toss and turn.
For a moment, Lu Yuan's mind went blank, and at this moment he didn't think about anything, because once he started to hesitate, the attack failed.
But out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Wang Yourong standing under the basket, wearing No. 11, he raised his hands in front of his chest and widened his eyes.
Lu Yuan did not hesitate, lowered his hand, and passed the ball to Wang Yourong, he was completely subconscious and did not think about it, because he felt that Wang Yourong could be trusted.
Wang Yourong firmly grasped the ball with both hands, undefended, he jumped high, unstoppable, but he threw lightly, hit the basket and shot into the basket.
He didn't choose to dunk because he was worried that he wouldn't have enough time and that he would dunk.
He chose the most rustic, simplest, and easiest way to score a goal, and the ball obediently fell into the basket.
Two points, overtake, buzzer sounded, and the game was over.
The whole arena froze, and many spectators stood in front of their seats, not expecting the game to end in such a way.
Twists and turns.
It wasn't until Wang Yourong raised his arms high and raised his arms for victory that the entire arena reacted and boiled.
The players from Lizhong flocked to the court, and everyone surrounded Wang Yourong, jumping and shouting, and they once again performed a miracle, they won the game again.
From this game, people finally began to realize that a miracle was happening to them in Licheng Middle School.
On the other side, Xie Gezhi looked up at the scoreboard and then at the timer, and he knew that it was all over.
Xie Gezhi limped off the field, at this time he didn't need to hide it anymore, the pain in his ankle could not withstand the loss and pain in his heart, and tears flowed down his cheeks.
Wang Minqi stepped forward, hugged Xie Gezhi, and said, "It's over, rest well, and come back next time." ”
"I don't have a next time."
"No, you have, your basketball career isn't over. Life doesn't end, basketball won't leave, let's go. ”
They left the stadium, leaving people with a lost back. They have been glorious, but now they have fallen, and one day, glory will come again.
"Danai, you're the best!"
Lu Yuan jumped on Wang Yourong and shouted happily, like a monkey climbing a peach tree.
"Lu Yuan, I want to eat, hungry."
"Good! We go to the best food in Shanghai! Leaves, you're in for a treat. ”
