Chapter 25: Fierce Battle
The expected scene of being teased again did not appear, as soon as the opponent dribbled the ball past half the court, the referee called a timeout, Shen Qin looked to the sidelines, and found that Qin Ran had taken off his coat and was waiting on the sidelines.
Fan Shilin still put his jersey on his head, looking like he was ignoring the game, and he seemed to be disappointed in the appearance of his teammates on the field.
Obviously, this timeout was shouted by Qin Ran.
"Shen Qin, borrow your jersey for a use."
The person Shen Qin had been looking forward to finally appeared, and Qin Ran appeared on the sidelines in a timely manner.
"You ......"
Shen Qin spoke, but he didn't know how to continue.
"Nonsense, you can't steal the limelight alone. When I play, you remember to cheer for me. Qin Ran couldn't help but say, and ripped off Shen Qin's No. 7 jersey and put it on himself.
Seeing in the stands that a group of people were behind by a big score and the whole court was one-sided, Qin Ran knew that there was no suspense in the game, shook his head and prepared to leave. But at the end of the first shift, the garbage time was replaced by Shen Qin, and Qin Ran had no choice but to continue to look at the little fat man's face.
It is normal to win or lose the game, but Fan Shilin's ridicule made Shen Qin suffer. Especially Shen Qin's helpless eyes on the field made Qin Ran panic and feel very uncomfortable.
"If you want to help, just say it, we're always available." On the day Qin Ran pretended to have a fever, Shen Qin's words warmed Qin Ran's heart for most of the day.
Qin Ran is a person who misses the old very much, although he is sometimes very cold, but he has always cared and cared for people who he thinks are friends in his heart.
Therefore, when he saw Shen Qin facing the trick again, Qin Ran made a decision after weighing it for a while.
chooses to be a coward for a lifetime, or a hero for a moment, sometimes even I can't tell clearly.
"You, wait and go to the basket and grab the rebound!"
"You, you will dribble more to the baseline later, and give me the ball when you have the chance!"
"And the two of you, pay attention to the running and attract the defenders!"
"It's very simple to wait for the meeting, if you don't want to be unable to hold your head up for the rest of your life, just give me a fight like a man! I don't know what to do, so give me the ball. Do you understand? ”
Qin Ran took out the momentum of his words in the company, and arranged many tactics in one go.
Since they can lead the other side in the first half, the difference in strength between the two sides will not be too big. The morale of the first team is now mainly broken, and the players are avoiding each other on the field, not daring to take responsibility. After all, in the face of the boos all over the field, they were booed as soon as they shot, and the core of the team was injured and went down, and everyone scurried around like headless flies.
"Understood—"
Several teammates who were pointed at by Qin Ran replied intermittently.
"No food, still no balls, be louder, okay?"
Qin Ran roared angrily.
"Got it!"
This time it's finally getting a little better.
"One, two, three, come on!"
Qin Ran first stretched out his right hand, and everyone put their hands on it in turn and shook it downward.
This Qin Ran who appeared in the sky, although his teammates were not impressed with him, they also knew that he was not easy to mess with, so they kept their distance from him in the class.
This time the fiasco is imminent, and someone takes the initiative to provoke the main beam and take the main responsibility, and they will subconsciously obey his arrangement in a daze.
Qin Ran's height of 1.73 meters is a little tight when he wears Shen Qin's jersey, but it doesn't affect his movements very much.
Wang Yaxuan was a little puzzled, seeing the game suspended at the critical moment, and then saw the mysterious Qin Ran yelling at the players on the sidelines, and finally he changed into the No. 7 jersey to replace the classmate who was teased just now.
Qin Ran straightened his head, his sword eyebrows and big eyes, and his resolute lines outlined his face with distinct facial features. Although in full view of thousands of people, Qin Ran held his head high and did not panic at all.
Since you have decided to do it, you have not flinched, and the brave one who meets the two wins!
Wang Yaxuan began to look at this classmate seriously for the first time, although the two had made up classes together last week, but she had always had a vague impression of this boy in her heart. It is very likely that when she leaves the school gate, Wang Yaxuan will not recognize this boy as a classmate on the street.
The game restarted, and under the command of Qin Ran, the players on the field of the first class barely mustered up their spirits and prepared to defend.
In the face of this unfamiliar opponent who was killed halfway, the second team did not pay much attention to this detail on the basis of a 14-point lead and 3 minutes and 15 seconds to go.
"Whew-"
Taking advantage of the fact that the tip of the body holding the ball was not paying attention, Qin Ran quickly reached out and made a successful steal from under him, and then quickly passed the half court and made a successful layup in three steps.
The score is 2 points closer, and there is still a 12-point gap.
Although the steal was wonderful, the audience was still booed. On the field, Qin Ran of course turned a deaf ear to these noises.
Back in his own half, he raised his hands and clapped his hands to celebrate, and Qin Ran used his actions to boost the fighting spirit of his teammates.
The second shift continued to make a comeback, hitting the basket and missing the shot. Qin Ran grabbed the rebound and quickly distributed the ball to his teammates. Three teammates played a fast break and scored 2 points on the shot, stretching the margin to 10 points.
At this time, Qin Ran could hear the shouts coming from Wang Yaxuan's ears. Although it was covered up in the boos of the audience, Qin Ran heard it clearly.
"Second class, one in!"
"Get one!"
In the cheers of the audience, the attack of the second class was blocked by Qin Ran again, and the ball fell into the hands of his teammates.
Seeing this, Qin Ran hurriedly ran to the opponent's half.
The two teammates made a one-two, and then threw the ball to Qin Ran from a distance. Qin Ran took the ball in the air, and out of the corner of his eye, he found that the opponent's half-court basket was empty, and he had enough time to shoot.
After receiving the ball, Qin Ran took two steps back, retreated outside the three-point line, and took a look in the area he was most familiar with, and shot!
A perfect parabola goes straight to the basket, hollow!
3 points, a clean blow, Qin Ran relied on his personal ability to pull the score to 7 points.
"Every morning after exercising, I went to the basketball court downstairs in the dormitory to practice shooting, and finally came in handy." Qin Ran thought silently in his heart. In the dormitory of the Transportation Bureau where Qin Ran lives, there is a basketball court downstairs, and Qin Ran takes a basketball to shoot on the court alone when he is tired from work. Because exercise is one of the most effective ways to eliminate fatigue.
In the last time and space, Qin Ran dormitory had a basketball bull who was selected for the national youth team, of course, he was admitted to Tianjing University as a top student.
Because other roommates either have girlfriends or don't like sports, Qin Ran was arrested by him as a campus sparring partner for three whole years. Under his guidance, Qin Ran's basketball skills are far from being comparable to those of ordinary middle school students.
"Beep-"
This time, when the opponent asked for a timeout, there was 1 minute and 26 seconds left before the end of the game.
"We can beat them, we just need to keep the lead!"
The top students of the second class are mobilizing their teammates.
"Just play like that, we have a chance to win! Come on! After speaking, Qin Ran briefly arranged his tactics again, and he would wait to defend against the other party's next wave of attacks.
The players on both sides returned to the field, and this time the second shift was much more careful in attacking, and they would choose to pass the ball when facing Qin Ran alone. Because in less than two minutes just now, Qin Ran had already proved with practical actions that he was even more difficult to deal with than Fan Shilin.
Qin Ran had already expected this, so just now he arranged the tactics of letting go of the empty basket and the whole audience staring at people.
"Smack-"
The pass is wrong, the player of the second class touches the ball out of bounds, and the first team has the ball.
A teammate served, Qin Ran stepped forward to catch the ball, a false shake, and dribbled past a player on the other side.
Fast past half-time, forming a good situation of three against two.
Qin Ran's movements seemed to be about to go to the basket quickly, and the two top students were already waiting under the basket, ready to defend him.
One step, two steps, take-off-
Qin Ran's body had already vacated into the air, and two tall figures were lying in front of him, jumping up and intending to forcibly seal it.
With his right hand, he passed the ball to his armpit, and Qin Ran very cleverly passed the ball to his teammates who followed up later, and he scored with an easy layup.
2 points are valid!
For a full 2 and a half minutes, his side scored 0 points, but the opponent scored 9 points in a row, and the difference was stretched to 5 points. This qiē all started with the opponent's new No. 7 on the field.
There is 1 minute 06 seconds left in the race.
This attack must be scored, otherwise there is a danger of a comeback.
From now on, all the players in the second class are focused and no longer indulge in the illusion of a big lead.
The second team dribbles across the halfcourt, covers, splits the ball, and hands the ball to a top student.
Raise your hand and throw!
The ball rolls around the basket and rolls off the center of the basket.
"2 points!"
The crucial 2 points were in hand, and the lead was another 7 points, and the score became 47vs54.
The tense nerves of the members of the second class relaxed a little.
Before they could come to their senses, a quick serve, another long pass, and it was the cunning No. 7 who got the ball in the area where he had just made a three-pointer.
"Oops!"
The members of the second squad shouted in their hearts.
Still in a familiar position, continue with a three-point shot.
Hollow, see hollow again!
Qin Ran immediately returned the opponent with a 3 point, and brought the score closer to 4 points.
At this moment, the audience was attracted by such a tense and intense competition. Although there were still boos, the momentum was half as loud as before.
With 42 seconds left in the game, it is difficult to say who will win or lose if it continues like this.
The second-class players temporarily gathered together to discuss tactics, and came to the conclusion that they had to control the time, after all, they were still 4 points ahead.
Serve, slowly hold the ball through the half, the second class is not in a hurry to attack, they intend to spend 24 seconds of offensive time.
Under the leadership of Qin Ran, a group of players continued to mark people, as long as they prevented this wave, there was hope for a draw.
In the case of close pressing, the second-class players did not have a suitable opportunity to shoot, and finally under Qin Ran's encirclement, a top student barely shot in the remaining 1 second, and the ball popped off the boundary.
With 18 seconds left in the race, they trailed by four points.
At the kick-off, his teammates gave the ball to Qin Ran, and he controlled the ball and quickly passed the half.
Outside the three-point line, the two top students came up to wrap him up. Qin Ran took the lead and passed the ball to his teammates who were also unguarded at the three-point line. The teammate received the ball and made a gesture of wanting to shoot, but quickly put his hand down and passed the ball back to Qin Ran, who ran into the penalty area.
Seeing the three points just now, his teammates didn't have the confidence to shoot, so they handed back the opportunity to Qin Ran. Qin Ran took the ball and slammed it in, and was beaten by the opponent when he went to the basket, but the ball had already been thrown out of his hand.
After the ball hits the board, it bounces into the basket and spun around and falls into the net.
2+1!
Qin Ran used the breakthrough to make a foul, not only 2 points were effective, but also got a chance to make a free throw.
Because the game time is suspended when the free throws are made, using the free throws to chase points is the most reasonable way for the team to fall behind.
At this point, the game stops at the last 5 seconds.
Qin Ran slapped the basketball on the ground, blew on it, held his breath, and shot the basketball in a textbook style, which was a mastery passed on by his former roommate.
"Poof—"
Respond to the sound, 1 point is valid.
At this time, the score was 53vs54, and the second shift served, and there were still 5 seconds left in the game time.
"Foul!"
Qin Ran gave an order, and a team of players fouled the ball carrier as soon as the opponent kicked off, allowing the opponent to go to his own free throw line. However, the foul took another 2 seconds, and there were 3 seconds left in the game.
Only lead by 1 point, 2 free throws must be scored, otherwise there is a chance to be killed by the opponent, standing at the free throw line The top of the body knows very well.
"Bang-"
Maybe it was too nervous, and the first free throw was missed, and the score was still 53 vs. 54.
"Ahh
The audience let out bursts of regret.
Grinding your hands, you take a deep breath and steady your breathing. The second free throw line is very beautiful, hanging straight to the basket, and the ball goes in!
53VS55
The second shift had a two-point lead at the end of the game with 3 seconds left.
Qin Ran hurriedly called a pause and arranged the tactics of the last attack.
After the pause, he will serve in the opponent's half, but the time is only the last 3 seconds, Qin Ran used the last 20 seconds of the timeout to make a simple tactical cover to explain to his teammates.
The audience continued to chant at this time: "Second class, win!" ”
Although Qin Ran's appearance was very good, the previous class was really unpopular, and with only 3 seconds left in the end, the first class was almost powerless, and the audience took the last opportunity to vent their remaining passion.
The players returned to the field, and the squad was ready for one last attack. Qin Ran stood on the sideline to serve, and it seemed that he was preparing to serve.
Shen Qin was already squatting on the sidelines with his head in his hands, not daring to look at the last tense moment. Fan Shilin, who covered his head, also took his clothes away and waited for the final result on the bench, but his constantly shaking legs betrayed what he really thought in his heart. Wang Yaxuan's two jade hands were clenched into fists at this time, and the final moment of victory and defeat made her unconsciously highly engaged, waiting for the final attack with the audience.
"Beep-"
When the whistle sounded, the four players in a squad were constantly crossing and changing positions, but Qin Ran pretended to serve but did not throw the ball.
According to the tactical arrangement, while the opponent was slack, a player in a yellow uniform suddenly rushed in front of Qin Ran.
With a push of both hands, Qin Ran handed the ball to his teammates, and his left foot began to step across the sideline. The teammate received the ball, and after 1 second of time, he immediately handed the ball back to Qin Ran. At this moment, Qin Ran landed with his right foot and received the basketball, and time passed for another 1 second.
Relying on the afterglow to sweep to the basket, Qin Ran raised his hand to jump shot, all based on feeling, 3 points from a long distance.
After the ball left Qin Ran's right hand, the timing card lit up with a red light, but the basketball still flew towards the basket in a strange parabola.
The referee raised his hand to signal that the three-point shot was valid.
Fly, my dream!
"Bang-"
The basketball hit the hoop and bounced high, and after falling, it fell directly into the basket!
3 points!
Lore!
The No. 7 who suddenly appeared, and in the last 1 second, he killed the second class that had won the game with a wonderful ultra-long-distance three-point strike.
56VS55!
There was silence in the audience, and everyone was stunned by the last goal.
The emotions that had been suppressed for a long time finally did not need to be controlled, Qin Ran jumped up, stretched out his index finger and made a gesture to shut up and demonstrate towards the stands where the most boos and shouts just now.
“Shut-up!”
The teammates reacted, were ecstatic, and rushed to Qin Ran to hug and cheer!
Shen Qin, who covered his head and squatted on the ground and didn't dare to look at the result, came back to his senses in a trance when he heard the cheers of his teammates.
As soon as he saw the scoreboard 56VS55, he immediately shouted, and rushed frantically to his teammates who were hugging him, and at the same time, the tears in his eyes could no longer be controlled. Damn Qin Ran, he actually did it! also wore his own jersey and washed away the shame of being played with just now.
In the stands, Wang Yaxuan also stood up, with long black hair and a shawl, standing on tiptoe and happily stretching out her little hand to high-five each other with the girls around her.
Fan Shilin looked at Qin Ran with some incredulity, how could this ordinary boy who was inconspicuous in the class become the protagonist on the stage he carefully built today?
"Bang-Bang-"
Although Qin Ran made a shut-up gesture in the end, his excellent appearance could not be erased. Driven by the students of the first class of high school, the audience stood up and applauded the rare wonderful game, and also paid tribute to the mysterious student who rescued the scene.
Waving his hand to accept the applause of the audience, Qin Ran quickly left the scene from the players' tunnel with his head down. He was used to being low-key at school, but he still couldn't adapt to the treatment of being the focus of his classmates.
