Chapter 56: Never Give Up
(Thank you for the tip!) Hey! )
Sun Yi, who retreated to the half, held his knees with his hands and looked at the scoreboard above his head a little out of breath. At 80:80, there are 50 seconds left in the game time, and after the 35-second round time, he has at least one attack time.
Although Sun Yi's physical fitness has improved greatly now, after Sampson left the field with an injury, the Trojans completely relied on his own strength to bite the score on the field. Although the score just now is very exciting, the one-on-three dry pull-up shooting is also very physically demanding. The rest of the time was just enough for both teams to attack once. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to guard against this attack of the opponent in order to take the initiative.
Coach Smith looked at Durant as he entered the opposing half, and he believed that the ace scorer, who had returned to normal, would not let himself down. So, and did not use the last precious pause.
The opponent's subtle dribbling and powerless shooting just now shook the introverted Durant's confidence. But the words of his friend Lawson once again made this shy and tall thin boy muster up his fighting spirit.
"Are you the best scorer?" A simple question, any teenager with a competitive heart will not hesitate to confirm, and he will definitely prove himself in this attack.
The Warriors have no intention of attacking quickly, as they did last time. The ball kept passing on the outside. Durant, who is responsible for scoring, keeps running without the ball with his opponent who follows him closely.
Compared with other teammates who basically did not rest, because he was blown up by Glenn in the first half, Coach Smith replaced this lanky and tall teenager early. He was fully rested, and every step he took at this time was so fast and powerful.
Sun Yi, whose physical strength was already somewhat exhausted, sweat beads kept rolling down his head. Silver teeth clenched in his closed lips, struggling to control the pace of his breathing.
Looking at the untired opponent in front of me, I wanted to stop my steps several times and let my already hot lungs breathe some fresh air easily.
"I can accept failure, but I can't accept giving up." Whenever I wanted to give up chasing the tall and thin figure in front of me, the phrase in the Bulls locker room closet kept swirling in my head.
At this time, Sun Yi didn't know that his idol was in front of the TV, carefully paying attention to his every move.
Lawson looked up at the round time, and with 10 seconds left, it was time. After he made a gesture, first the Warriors' center mentioned that the top of the arc made a high screen, and then Devendorf and Gooden made the same screen in a specific position.
Just like in practice, Durant expertly continued to gallop along a fixed line. But the figure beside him was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, entangled with him.
Sun Yi's unique flexibility of the Oriental race allows him to make all kinds of incredible dodge moves in high-speed running. His figure is like that of an ancient swordsman, stepping on the seven stars but his clothes are not messy.
After dodging all the opponent's blockers, Sun Yi accelerated again, instantly surpassing the tall and thin boy who had been chasing.
To the surprise of all the fans, the oriental boy rushed straight to the ball-holding Tai. Lawson.
What the hell is this? The surprise on Lawson's face was instantly replaced by an ecstasy in his heart. I thought that this well-arranged tactic would fail under the opponent's perverted marking ability. He was already about to dribble and break through, but he found that the boy was like a mad cow, letting go of the players he had been watching, and coming straight to him. Well done! With a flick of his wrist, the ball flew to his friend not far away.
Durant, who easily received the ball, looked stunned,! You're kidding me, I've been chasing for so long and I'm stupid in the end. Well, in that case, buddy can only be disrespectful.
After dribbling one step forward, Durant reached the spot he did best. Take a step inside the 45° three-point line on the right side, jump, raise your elbow, and the ball comes to a place ten centimeters above your head, and you can shoot the ball.
"Not good!" Durant, who had just thrown the ball into the air, heard the panicked shouts of his friend, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
The opponent's raised arms met unexpectedly in the air with the ball he thrown. Oops, I felt the rapidly spinning basketball with a slight change of direction.
A slightly painful hot sensation came from the fingertips of Sun Yi's right hand. Due to the exertion, the body lost its balance in the air. He was about to fall to the floor, but his eyes were fixed on the shot that he 'covered'.
It turned out that Sun Yi, who had been following Durant closely, got rid of the opponent's cover three times. It suddenly occurred to me that if I defended too hard, in case the opponent's small point guard, I would simply attack with the ball. With Thomas's strength, he is certainly no match for that guy.
Sun Yi, who was bent on defending against his opponent's attack, made a temporary move and made a feint to pounce on Lawson. At the moment when the opponent was about to pass the ball after being fooled, he immediately made a sharp stop and turned to the tall and thin boy again.
At the moment when Durant made a move, Sun Yi, who had used his physical potential to the extreme, had just arrived. With his right palm stretched out, he hit the ball that was spinning in the air.
Just a little, that's enough.
Sure enough, Durant's fatal blow was interfered with by Sun Yi, and the flight distance was a little insufficient. The ball smashed into the front of the basket and flew out of the box.
"Thomas!" Sun Yi, who was about to get up on the ground, had already judged the landing point of the basketball and reminded his nearest friend loudly.
Thomas, who was woken up by the roar, looked at the flight trajectory of the ball and found that Lawson, who had been entangled with him throughout the game, was rushing to the landing point. ! The guy was closer to him, and Thomas, gritting his teeth, made a fish-leaping move.
Lawson was a little proud of his foresight, and after Durant's shot was interfered with, he subconsciously leaned two steps to the top of the arc. I didn't expect that it was these two steps that gave me a very good chance to get this priceless frontcourt rebound.
No way! What the hell? The ball at his fingertips was unexpectedly surrounded by a flying figure in front of him, changing the original trajectory of movement.
What day is it, damn it. Lawson, who cursed in his heart, immediately turned around and chased the ball. With a whoosh, a lightning-fast figure flashed in front of his eyes.
Watch the opponent who is speeding away, pick up the ball, face the empty penalty area, and score a layup with ease. Can you still play, in just a few seconds, too many things have happened that this teenager can't understand.
Doni in the audience. Powers, Woning. Chapman and Joey. Adam smiled at each other when he saw this.
"What an incredible kid."
"Who's to say it isn't?"
As the saying goes, 'the layman looks at the bustle, the insider looks at the doorway'. There are not many people who can really understand Sun Yi's defense.
Harris. Moore looked thoughtfully at the oriental boy who had changed the situation on the field in an instant. Dennis quipped: "You should really suggest to Mr. Paxson to prepare a lottery pick for this No. 8 player, either next year or maybe the year after." ”
James was in the luxurious private room, excitedly raising his hands. Watch as Coach Smith of Oak Hill High School holds the tactics board in his hand and keeps drawing something in front of his team after using the last precious timeout. "Haha! You are all wrong, and the only winner today is me. Well, let me think about tonight's show. ”
Wade and Anthony looked willing to gamble and lose, and tacitly agreed that the game was won or lost.
Only Chris. Bosh reluctantly retorted: "A two-point difference only takes a three-pointer, doesn't it?" ”
This sentence caused the eyes of the three friends. No matter how strong a high school student is, how can he be like a professional player, and the lore will come. Moreover, as the main member of the 03 platinum generation with the most potential in the alliance, no one is sure that they will be able to hit the lore at such a moment.
Drip! The referee blew the whistle to signal that the timeout had come and the game resumed.
Sun Yi, who was about to play again, suddenly heard Anna's voice coming from behind him. "Honey, you can do it." The girl's delicate face was flushed with nervousness. Cute little fists, waving in the air.
Seeing this scene, Sun Yi raised his left arm and kissed the blue bracelet on his wrist that never flinched. Clenched his fists and waved in front of him, rest assured, your man will not let you down.
Durant, who was about to catch the ball, suddenly heard a gentle voice ringing in his ears. "Go for it, I'm not going to defend you with this ball."
Looking at the other party's handsome face, combined with the white teeth that were exposed because of the smile. The tall and thin boy subconsciously dodged two steps, and found that his opponent was not following as closely as before, and he couldn't believe it for a while.
"Kevin!" Lawson's voice brought Durantra back into the game, since you have a kind of unguard against me, am I going to be stupid to refuse?
After running a few steps in the air, he really found that the oriental boy was just following him not far away. With such a large space, it is definitely enough to make a complete shooting action by yourself. Come on, I don't believe you can cover me this time.
After Lawson received the serve from the sideline, after a series of screens, the ball came to the unmarked Durant, while Sun Yi, who was defending him, was still two meters away. When Coach Smith took a timeout just now, all the arrangements he had made were useless. His complicated tactics for the team's ace scorer became meaningless because Durant easily received the ball, and instead wasted a lot of time.
After receiving the incoming ball one step outside the three-point line, Durant jumped straight out without hesitation. No sooner had his feet left the ground than the gentle voice rang out again, only slightly louder than before.
"See where I am?" Sun Yi's voice just got into Durant's ears when the ball left his hand.
