Chapter 19: Mentality

Before seven o'clock in the morning on the day of the friendly match, Lin Qi came to the school's playground to carry out his regular practice. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

By the time the other team members arrived, Lin Qi's whole person was already soaked with sweat.

Ji Shuai was still the same as before, when it was less than eight o'clock, he came to the field on time to inspect the situation of the gathering, and when he saw Lin Qi wearing sportswear and covered in sweat, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, but he immediately put it away and was not seen by others.

"Today, everyone mainly practices the coordination of passing and cutting the ball, and after two hours, you can go to rest and prepare for the friendly match in the afternoon, Lin Qi, continue to train on the playground in the morning"

"Yes!" Everyone replied loudly in unison, and some people even looked at Lin Qi secretly laughing, as if they were laughing at Lin Qi for not making any progress...

"Yes, Ji Shuai"

Lin Qi responded with an uncharacteristically smile, and then after everyone was engaged in training, he immediately returned to the playground and continued to run, which made people who originally planned to watch Lin Qi's jokes couldn't help but wonder if Lin Qi's brain was damaged by the sun.

After training for a month, running ten laps is not a big deal for Lin Qi, even the frog jump, Lin Qi can insist on completing it, which makes him have to sigh that the realistic physical fitness is indeed a great help for him in reality.

I still remember that period of time, every time my feet were sore, it would eventually evolve into stronger muscles in my legs, and in the past month, Lin Qi's lower plate has been several times more solid than the original self.

Of course, he didn't have the practice of wasting defensive footsteps, it can be said that Lin Qi can already complete the defensive actions that Ji Shuai asked him to do before, and these are the results of Lin Qi's efforts.

Lin Qi was training on the playground, while Ji Shuai was watching from the corner on the side, and after a while, Wang Qichao also came to Ji Shuai's side and asked, "Ji Shuai, I have a question for you."

"It's about Lin Qi," Ji Shuai looked at Lin Qi on the field and said with a smile.

"That's right, I actually don't understand very well, it stands to reason that Lin Qi, who has three points, a breakthrough, and can organize an attack, in our team, instead of Zhao Jianming as our offensive guard, should be unabated for the strength of our team, why didn't you even give him the opportunity to activate in the first game after he entered the school team? Now, everyone in the team, for Lin Qi's attitude, it can be said that there is no seriousness, everyone feels that Lin Qi is just an additive in the team, dispensable, which does not seem to be good for Lin Qi's future development" Wang Qichao said the doubts in his heart in one breath, and then looked at Ji Shuai, waiting for Ji Shuai's answer.

"Hehe, this is what I want, Lin Qi, he doesn't know how to play yet, and what I want is for him to gradually become the core of this team" Ji Shuai said with a smile.

"Lin Qi doesn't know how to play? Let him be the core? These two sentences were extremely contradictory and full of strange words, which made Wang Qichao puzzled.

Lin Qi can't play? So aren't there a bunch of people on the team who can't play?

Wang Qichao really didn't understand what Ji Shuai meant all of a sudden.

Ji Shuai didn't elaborate, but changed the angle and continued, "Lin Qi has the potential to become the core of our team, and before that, everything in the team is a test for him, and the key to this test is mentality, if he can't solve these simple problems, then he can't really play a good game."

"You want to train him to grow up," Wang Qichao said with a smile.

"What? You're not happy for him to replace you as the heart of the team? ā€

"No, they are all teammates, I don't care, what I want is victory," Wang Qichao said firmly.

"Heh, it's up to him to get to where he hopes, at least, for now, he's still far from it."

"Hehe, that's right, compared to me, he is not qualified now!" Wang Qichao said with a smile.

……

Lin Qi, who trained seriously, didn't know that Wang Qichao was for himself, so he specially went to talk to Ji Shuai, and Lin Qi would not know the content of the chat between the two of them.

He wouldn't even know that Ji Shuai's purpose was to let him grow into the core of this school team.

Now, he just wants to improve himself through hard training, gain the trust of his coach, and win the opportunity to play for himself......

After a morning of training, at noon, everyone took a brief break in the stadium and began to prepare for the afternoon game.

At about one o'clock in the afternoon, a bus with the name of No. 15 Middle School slowly drove into the campus of Qinfeng High School.

At this moment, the locker room of the basketball department of Qinfeng High School, and the members of the school team were also listening carefully to their coach's lectures.

Now they have all changed into their team uniforms, and Lin Qi and the three have not changed into their jerseys because they have not been activated.

"In the fifteenth middle school, the last time we met, it was our subordinates who were defeated! So, don't tell me that you're going to give this victory back today! Ji Shuai looked at everyone with a smile and said.

"Hahaha, no!"

"No, it's okay, I can remember, if you lose, you will run a hundred laps around the playground for me after today's fight, this is a military order, I said it, just as you all agree" Ji Shuai nodded while smiling.

"No problem!"

Wang Qichao was the leader and replied loudly.

When Lin Qi heard that he would be punished for 100 laps if he lost this game, his whole person trembled, but he didn't expect that the others would simply agree to it like this, which shows their confidence in themselves, which made Lin Qi also a little deeply infected.

Indeed, the game hasn't started yet, so why think about losing? Just let go of the fight!

"Alright, come on!" After Ji Shuai made some other simple deployments, he raised his right hand and loudly encouraged everyone.

After that, a group of talents left the locker room and walked towards the school indoor gymnasium together.

At this time, in the gymnasium, the people in the fifteenth middle school were already shooting and warming up in the stadium.

When the other coach's coach saw Ji Shuai, he greeted him warmly, and the two greeted each other, then shook hands with each other, and then returned to their respective coaches' seats.

The game is divided into four quarters, each of which lasts 12 minutes, with a five-minute break between each quarter and a 15-minute break at halftime.

The referees of the match, two from each school.

As the start time of the game approached, the starting lineups of both sides also came to the field in turn.

Sun Hao faced the opposite center, whether it was height or body shape, he was much better than the other party, which made Lin Qi feel happy in his heart, "It seems that Sun Hao can really turn the river and the sea on the inside today"

At the beginning of the game, after the referee kicked off, the two centers jumped up and jumped at the same time, and Sun Hao, who had better bounce power, easily crushed the opponent, and with a simple dial, he got the first opportunity for Qinfeng High School.

The point guard of Qin Feng's school team was chased and intercepted by the opposing point guard as soon as he received the ball, and a lot of time was consumed in the half.

This mode of strictly preventing death-to-death fighting from the beginning made Lin Qi a little surprised, "Isn't the other party worried about excessive physical exertion?" ā€

At this time, Ji Shuai suddenly said, "All of you, take a closer look at how the opponent defends, learn from others' strengths and make up for your own shortcomings, just like just now, with our point guard, the defense is very good, whether it is footsteps or space restrictions, there is a good use of cooperation"

While speaking, Ji Shuai kept looking at Lin Qi, obviously, these words were more for Lin Qi, which made Lin Qi nod vigorously, and then looked at the court vigorously, for fear of missing any details.

"Of course, I'm not encouraging you to use this kind of full-court marking tactic at the beginning, the opponent wants to consume our physical strength and avenge the last loss."

As he spoke, Ji Shuai grinned, unable to hide his happiness, and he couldn't see the slightest nervousness at all.

……

The first attack of Qinfeng's school team was won by Wang Qichao with the assistance of Sun Hao.

I saw that after he took the ball, he easily broke through the opponent's two-person bag, and then a long pass from behind gave the ball to Sun Hao's hands, Sun Hao and the opposite center were still three steps away, so he directly pulled up and jumped, and scored the first goal steadily.

In the next few rounds, Wang Qichao also continued to connect the whole team, no matter what kind of containment measures the opponent used, Wang Qichao could always use the little space to create a good offensive opportunity for his teammates, which made Lin Qi admire, looking at Wang Qichao's performance, Lin Qi simply benefited a lot, as if he had seen a living textbook.

In the face of such a situation, the opponent is also very helpless, restricting Wang Qichao has always been their biggest problem, but it seems that there is no very effective way except for the foul.

In the entire first quarter, Wang Qichao himself did not make even one shot, but he at least attracted the defensive firepower of the other two or more than two people, and received a lot of assists!

At the end of the first quarter, Wang Qichao scored 2 rebounds and assists, and the highest score in the team was Sun Hao, who scored five goals in a single quarter and scored 10 points.

The score of the first quarter of the game between the two teams was 9:2, it can be said that Sun Hao took the general score, and Wang Qichao was closely related to the score of the whole team.

In the simple first quarter of the game, Wang Qichao and Sun Hao have successfully connected the whole team.

In the second quarter of the game, Ji Shuai specially arranged for Sun Hao and Wang Qichao to rest and replace them with a substitute lineup, led by Zhao Jianming, the main scoring guard of the Qinfeng school team, and Wu Chao, the main point guard, to continue to control the situation on the court.

It seems that he is worried that the score will continue to pull away, and the coach of the 15th middle school still arranged the whole main lineup to play in the second quarter, although he successfully narrowed the score, but still failed to overtake the score.

In the third quarter of the game, Wang Qichao and Sun Hao returned to the court again, completely turning the situation of the game into a one-sided battle, and after the third quarter, the Qinfeng team had a 6:45 lead by 15 points in 15!

In the fourth quarter, the two sides played as many substitutes as possible, and in the end, the Qinfeng team won the friendly match with an advantage of 75:65.

After the game, when Ji Shuai was communicating with the coach of the 15th Middle School, the coach of the 15th Middle School kept praising Sun Hao, who scored the highest score of 25 points in the game, and said again and again, "You have a better center!" ā€

In the words, there is no lack of envy.

Looking at Sun Hao's achievements, Lin Qi was happy for his brother from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time, he was more eager to continue to devote himself to training, and strive to contribute to the victory of his team as soon as possible like Sun Hao.
