Chapter 44: Tenfold Return (Fourth Update)
At this time, the audience in the gymnasium of the entire Hualong Middle School all stood up, cheering, shouting, and applauding for the Hualong Middle School.
Their mood is good, as if they have been unexpectedly favored by God, no one thought that Hualong Middle School could defeat Lin Feng Middle School, after all, Lin Feng Middle School is the No. 1 seed in the G City Basketball League, and the strength gap between Hualong Middle School and Lin Feng Middle School is as far as the gap between children and adults.
But the fact in front of me is that Lin Feng Middle School was beaten by Hualong Middle School by 18 points in the first quarter!
As a home fan, who wouldn't be happy and who wouldn't be excited?
Not only the fans were happy, but even all the players of Hualong Middle School, as well as coach Yao Guangming, could not hide the joy on their faces.
Yao Guangming held back his excitement and guided tactics on the sidelines.
"You must not underestimate the enemy! Although we led by nearly 20 points in the first quarter, let's not forget who our opponent is, it is Lin Feng Middle School, the No. 1 seed! And this game, far from over, there are still 36 long minutes, if we relax, it is very likely to be overturned! ”
"The reason why we were able to take so many leads in the first quarter is because of Yifan's joining, they don't understand Yifan's playing rhythm, so they will be caught off guard by us, and then in the second quarter, they will be crazy about Yifan's classmates, so we have to change our strategy, Yifan, you have to use your ability to attract defense, revitalize your teammates, other players on the court, you must cut more empty, turn back and run, run more without the ball, transfer the ball more, as long as there is a vacancy, shoot decisively!"
"Do you understand?"
"Got it!"
The fifteen basketball players of Hualong Middle School have never been so excited tonight. It's as if this game made them win the championship.
Each of them has high morale and is in great competitive condition, like a brave warrior.
A whistle blew and the second quarter began.
Sure enough, as Coach Yao Guangming guessed, Lin Feng Middle School began to frantically target Liu Yifan, and before half the court, he defended closely, and after half the court, there were two people in the bag.
Liu Yifan turned back and ran without the ball, and there would be one person who could mark at any time, and the other few would be ready to help defend at any time.
Regarding this situation, Liu Yifan smiled faintly in his heart.
This kind of extreme defensive strategy will only make Lin Feng Middle School lose even more.
Sure enough, next, Liu Yifan kept running, and he never stopped, but the player who was in charge of marking him was directly exhausted, and the other people who assisted in defense caused all kinds of dispositions because they came to help defend Liu Yifan, and as a result, the other players in Hualong Middle School scored points and became more relaxed and freehand.
Everyone played smoothly, full of confidence, and began to invest how to have.
Hualong Middle School's five-small lineup is too mobile, and there are Liu Yifan and Du Bao, two people who shoot very accurately.
Du Bao's three-point shooting rate, this season, reached 43 percent, and Liu Yifan, although he didn't play a game before, but in the first quarter of tonight's game, he was already outside the three-point line, shooting 7 of 7, no missing shots.
This has already broken G City's single-quarter three-point shooting record!
If one person is very accurate, Lin Feng Middle School may be able to strangle a little, and if two people are very accurate, then it will be difficult for them to strangle two attack points.
In the second quarter, although Lin Feng Middle School's offense improved, it still couldn't prevent Hualong Middle School's score.
As a result, the second quarter of the game ended, and the score was not only not imminent, but opened to a distance of 25 points!
72 to 47!
scored 72 points in the half, which also set a scoring record for the G City High School Basketball League!
At half-time, in the locker room of Lin Feng Middle School, head coach Du Shaoxiong sat on a small bench, his face was like ashes, and he didn't say a word.
All the players from Lin Feng Middle School also fell silent.
Zhang Xiaoliu, the little 6 who had been clamoring for abuse of Hualong Middle School, and Yun Xiao before, only felt hot on their faces at this time.
I don't know how long it took, Du Shaoxiong suddenly broke out, kicked on the iron plate of the wardrobe, and scolded:
“fuck!”
"Do you know you're playing like a piece of tonight!"
"I'm also taking you to Sanya!"
"What the hell are they all doing! Travel a yarn! ”
The reason why Du Shaoxiong is so angry and rude is because the boss has clearly instructed that in order to let Anbei High School, a brother middle school, enter the playoffs, Lin Feng Middle School is only allowed to win tonight's game, not to lose, if he loses, head coach Du Shaoxiong will have to take the blame!
This is a big event related to Du Shaoxiong's job!
Du Shaoxiong thought that it would be easy to win Hualong Middle School, very simple, but he didn't expect that a new player from Hualong Middle School would have such a big energy that he would directly beat their No. 1 seed without temper!
The players of Lin Feng Middle School, after being scolded, everyone lowered their heads and suffered silently.
However, Yun Xiao raised his head and said coldly, "Coach, we have done our best. ”
"Now that the gap is 25 points, we players are responsible, aren't you responsible? If you hadn't replaced me and Zhizhong for more than three minutes in the first quarter, at least the situation wouldn't have been as embarrassing as it is now. ”
"You're accusing me of a tactical error?" Du Shaoxiong kicked his nose and glared at Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao smiled bitterly and didn't say anything.
Du Shaoxiong suddenly took a long breath and said, "That's right, that substitution was my fault." ”
"I just scolded you like that, and said such ugly things, and it was also my fault. This affects team unity. ”
"Either way, we can't give up, can we?"
"Don't forget that we are the number one seed! We are the strongest, and even if we lose, we must lose with dignity! ”
Du Shaoxiong wanted to encourage the players and give them confidence, but his words did not have the slightest effect, and all the players were still depressed and depressed.
When leaving the locker room, a player still said coldly:
"We've all decided to be number one in the regular season, so why fight so hard? If we lose this game, we will lose, and it won't affect us anything! ”
"That's it!"
"It's better to take turns to rest the main team and let the substitute players practice more!"
"Anbei Middle School can't make the playoffs, it's their own lack of strength, what's the matter with us?"
Du Shaoxiong heard the players talking like this behind his back, and sighed again, knowing that the outcome of this game may not be able to be changed.
Whether a game can be won or not, in addition to the need for strong competitive skills, the desire to win is also a very important factor.
Obviously, tonight's Lin Feng Middle School basketball team has lost its desire to win since it was caught off guard by Hualong Middle School in the first quarter.
"It seems that we can only break the boat." Du Shaoxiong smiled helplessly.
At the beginning of the second half, what was surprising was that Du Shaoxiong went directly to the bench.
When D'Antoni was coaching the Rockets, there was a playoff game between the Rockets and the Clippers, and the Rockets were beaten by the Clippers in the first two quarters because of the sluggish performance of the team's leader Harden, trailing by more than 20 points. And because of this victory, the Rockets' morale soared, and in the next few games, they were like a bamboo, and finally defeated the Clippers 4-3 in a big score and advanced to the Western Conference finals.
Du Shaoxiong hopes that the players who are all substitutes can change the team's mental outlook, let go and play, don't carry burdens, and rebuild the team's confidence.
This lineup really had some effect, and at the end of the third quarter, the score gap between Lin Feng Middle School and Hualong Middle School narrowed from 25 points to 15 points.
However, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, as soon as Liu Yifan came on the court, the game was "banged" again, and it was spent instantly, and finally, when there were five minutes left in the fourth quarter, the score gap came to 34 points, which completely extinguished the flame of Lin Feng Middle School's counterattack, and finally Lin Feng Middle School could only give up the game.
Tonight, Hualong Middle School, which had always thought that victory was unlikely, won a valuable victory in the hands of No. 1 seed Lin Feng Middle School! Got your last ticket to the playoffs!
The entire stadium cheered because of this, and the sky above the stadium echoed with a loud shout: "Liu Yifan, MVP!" Liu Yifan, MVP! ”
Lin Dazhuang walked up to Liu Yifan and gave Liu Yifan a deep hug.
"Yifan, you saved the team and saved me!"
"I, Lin Dazhuang, have never served anyone, but your performance tonight makes me admire me so much! Brother Fan, you are the boss of our team! ”
Liu Yifan was surrounded by everyone, full of flowers, wearing stars and moons, and walked back to the locker room with the glory of victory.
