Chapter Twenty-Six: The Time for Work Has Come
Both teams wore their respective jerseys, and the red and purple teams stood facing each other in two rows. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After Xu Li, who was standing at the head of the line, shook hands with Ding Kun, the players from both sides bowed to each other at the same time.
Shaking hands and saluting before the game is the basic etiquette that Huaxia has always adhered to, which means "respect for the opponent" and "friendship first, competition second". Most people stick to this simple etiquette.
Seeing that the game in the field was about to start, Ling Xin also walked to the rest seat on her brother's side,
"Hello, may I sit here?" Ling Xin showed two shallow dimples to the person in the seat next to her, who was also wearing a football uniform and seemed to be a substitute. No matter how capricious she is at home, when she goes out, she will still be a perfect sister who is obedient and well-behaved, maybe this is also Ling Hao's willingness to spoil her all the time, right? No matter how willful and unreasonable he is, he is just making trouble with his brother at home, and he is still polite and sensible when he goes out.
"Oh, yes, please take a seat." After all, in the past year, Ling Xin has always practiced with her brother in the indoor court here every once in a while, so even if there are not many people in the basketball club of No. 4 Middle School who have spoken to her, they basically know him.
"Thank you."
"It seems that the minister's sister is also coming to our school in junior high school?"
"It's okay to call me Xiaoxin, junior high school is coming here, after all, it's my brother's school, so I'm more familiar with it."
"Beep~!" As a whistle blew, it attracted Ling Xin's attention, and seeing Ling Xin turn her head to look at the court, the substitute senior stopped talking.
The purple side of the fourth middle school is responsible for jumping the ball, and the red side of the third middle school is responsible for jumping the ball, and the one who is responsible for jumping the ball is a strong man who can reach a height of 1.9 meters and is the tallest in the field.
Is that really a high school student? Ling Xin couldn't help but complain, with a tiger's back and an uncle's face, it was even more obvious when she stood in the middle of a group of high school students at this time.
"Uh, that's Liu Yan from No. 3 Middle School, although he does look a little more mature, uh, but he is indeed a sophomore in high school this year." Perhaps noticing that Ling Xin had been staring at the tall and strong center forward in the field, the substitute named Gao Quanfeng, who was sitting next to Ling Xin, explained.
"Then why did you want Minister Xu to jump the ball with him?" Ling Xin also asked the doubts in her heart, after all, even if she didn't know anything about basketball, seeing the disparity in height between the two standing on the court at this time, she also knew how much of a disadvantage Xu Li was in.
"Although Xu Li doesn't have an advantage in height, even Senior Li Hui is willing to bow down to jump balls and grab rebounds!" As if to confirm what Gao Quanfeng said.
As soon as the words fell, a whistle sounded in the court, and the basketball was thrown high by the referee standing in the middle of the court.
In fact, Xu Li is not short, the exposed arms on his body can clearly see the refined bulging muscles, and his height of 1.7 meters is only at the lower middle level in the basketball club, and there are people who are shorter than him, but standing with Liu Yan, who is 1.9 meters tall, at this time, it seems that he is extra short.
Unexpectedly, the "short" Xu Li suddenly showed amazing bounce power, the right hand raised high crossed the opponent's equally raised right hand, and the arm that was a cut above the opponent steadily hit the basketball that had just begun to fall.
"Disarm!" The other party has obviously guessed this ending, after all, as an old opponent for many years, he still knows the strength of the other party very well, and for Xu Li, who is 1.9 meters 9 and can't jump 1.7 meters, the unexpected ending for ordinary people is obviously expected.
"It's too slow!" Ling Hao, who was originally standing in the opponent's half, received the ball from Xu Li steadily, and the defenders who could barely keep up with him at the original speed were so far behind at this time, and they couldn't catch up, so they could only watch Ling Hao make an easy three-step layup.
All this happened too quickly, the fourth middle school, including the off-field substitutes, the logistics staff couldn't help but boost their morale, some of them were so excited that they applauded loudly, but compared to the third middle school, I don't know if it was because of this surprise attack, the whole team was a little demoralized.
"Don't panic! Hit back! Ding Kun yelled, in fact, the return of Ling Hao and Du Wen will certainly strengthen the strength of the team, but the role played by the individual is limited after all, no matter how powerful the individual is, if the teammates are not good, then the individual is powerless, after all, it is really difficult to fight if there is no one to cooperate, not to mention that there is a time when the physical strength is exhausted. Therefore, their greater role is actually reflected in the role of a leader, just like an ordinary catch-and-basket score at this time, in the final analysis, it is only a two-point thing, but such a simple and small offense has a very big impact on the morale of the other side, and it is often said that a good "leader" can bring up the rhythm, and the low morale will also affect the next play, so the goal just now brings the advantage of eliminating the other.
is worthy of being the number one master in the city, it is really powerful, Ling Hao Duwen is back, how to play this ball game?
Needless to ask, Ding Kun also knew that his teammates were shaking in their hearts, in fact, his hearts also began to waver, but as a captain, he had the responsibility of stabilizing the morale of the army.
"Don't panic! Hit back! Ding Kun's angry roar successfully interrupted the frustrated atmosphere of his teammates, and he quickly organized a counterattack.
It was useless, because the seed called fear had already been planted, and no one noticed the cold light flashing in Ling Hao's eyes on his still smiling face.
The two sides went back and forth at first, but the situation didn't last a few minutes.
If the opponent is single-handed, he can't prevent Ling Hao's breakthrough at all, if multiple people are sandwiched, Ling Hao will pass the ball to Du Wen, and then Du Wen can easily throw from a distance, even if Ling Hao and Du Wen are pinched at the same time, then there will definitely be teammates who are not marked, even if those teammates who were originally just substitutes can't compare with Du Wen's shooting rate, but if no one is marked, there are still more than 50%.
"Bang dang!" The basketball smashed on the frame, but the face of the player who threw the ball did not show the panic and disappointment of not scoring a goal, and that was because ......
"Ah~~~~!" With a roar, Xu Li once again jumped high to overtake the opponent's center and steadily slapped the ball towards his teammates. Then the teammate catches the ball and throws again......
Originally, the reason why the basketball department of the fourth middle school would lose was that no one could cooperate with Xu Li, although Xu Li was rare in the city under the basket to be able to compete with him, but his shortcomings were also obvious, he could only grab the ball and pass it out, and if he threw it himself, it would be nine out of ten shots, so the role of Xu Li after the main force in the basketball department was very embarrassing after graduation.
There is no one in the basketball department who can create a threat that requires the opponent's double attack, let alone be able to shake off the opponent's defense to catch the ball......
So except for Xu Li, everyone in the basketball club has a feeling that they are dragging their feet, and then the more they play, the more out of shape......
But at this time, the arrival of Ling Hao and Du Wen changed the situation, and the other party had to send more people to stare at them, and then the substitutes of the junior students shot very easily.
I voted, yes? Didn't enter? Oh, Minister Xu grabbed the ball again and passed it back, I'll shoot again, yes? Why haven't you entered yet? It's okay Minister Xu is here, I voted again, and I entered the ......
Therefore, everyone in the basketball department of the No. 4 Middle School has a feeling of eagerness to try "I can do it", which is in stark contrast to the kind where there is no Ling Hao and Du Wen, everyone feels that they are dragging their feet and unwilling to play.
On the other hand, the third middle school has become inversely proportional to the opposite side of the high morale, and he can only bite the score tightly without falling too far behind, and it is really a bit annoying to see the other party's relaxed look, and the kid just now lost three goals in a row without anyone marking it, right?
Ten minutes have passed in the first quarter, although the score is only two points less than that of the fourth middle school, but this is only the first quarter, all five players of the third middle school are sweating profusely and panting, obviously have consumed a lot of physical strength, on the other hand, the basketball department of the fourth middle school, although the same face is full of sweat beads, but the breathing is very gentle, not so much sweating caused by strenuous exercise, but more like the sun is too much to sun.
Hearing the whistle of the first quarter of the game, Ling Xin understood that it was time for her to work, so she picked up the sports drinks and towels provided by the basketball club on the side and ran to the court.
