Chapter 115: The Injured Scoring King
The thirteenth came first, leading 2:0. After hitting the ball, the 13th Colonel immediately ran back, not making any 'forced' action at all, and they withdrew to the backcourt in an uproar, so fast that the Rangers' fast attack could not be fought at all.
"It's not easy to fight this one...... Wang Baojiang 'touched' and 'touched' the stubble on his chin, and said to himself, "If you have to face the city No. 1 Middle School, the hope of qualifying is very slim." I wonder what the situation is over there? ”
"Teacher Wang, just ask me if I don't have it?" A voice suddenly came from behind.
Wang Baojiang turned his head and saw that it was the little reporter Wang Le, and there was Yu Yang next to him who had not been seen for a long time. Yu Yang looked very tired, and his whole person was much thinner. Although Wang Baojiang didn't have much to do with them, he knew that they all had a good relationship with the Rangers, and he was very enthusiastic to help collect information about their opponents.
"Hello, I haven't seen you in a long time!" Wang Baojiang said with a smile.
"Yes, this time is busy with business......" Yu Yang smiled reluctantly, and he could see that he was not happy. How can there be a busy business, but the businessman is unhappy? Obviously, Yu Yang had some things that were inconvenient to say, and as soon as he sat down, his eyes glanced at Cheng Fei on the field.
Wang Le continued: "Over there, City No. 1 Middle School has beaten Zhijiang No. 1 Middle School, City No. 1 Middle School has won twice, and the strength of Zhijiang No. 1 Middle School is about the same as Zigui No. 1 Middle School, and it is the weakest team. Therefore, we can conclude that City No. 1 Middle School definitely won all three games and won the first place in the group. ”
Wang Baojiang sighed: "That's the result." The 13th is also a best-of-two, and this one will decide which team will be the first team in the group, and if we fall to second place, it will be very troublesome to play the first middle school. By the way, which team should be the second place over there? ”
Wang Le said: "It should be Yiling Middle School. Their strength is not weak, but it is certainly not as good as the first middle school in the city. ”
Wang Baojiang was silent.
On the field, the Rangers' offense came to a standstill. Wang Zhiwen advanced to the front court and 'handed over' the ball to Cheng Fei. Wu Keke, who is in the opposite position, does not leave an inch, this person is thin, but there seems to be an inexhaustible 'essence' in his body, and his bright eyes are always staring at Cheng Fei.
Since the opponent's basketball skills are not very good, it should be easy to deceive. Cheng Fei made up his mind to try his skills, starting with Wu Keke and tearing apart the defense line of the Thirteenth Middle School. Only in this way can other scoring points be freed up.
Obviously, the 13th Middle School put all the focus on Yang Cong's marking, and also paid a considerable amount of attention to Wang Zhiwen, as long as the two of them got the ball, there were immediately two or three players ready to intercept. They have a good physique and fast movements, which also causes a lot of psychological pressure on those who hold the ball.
However, when Cheng Fei got the ball, there was only one Wu Keke in front of him. The other players stared at Yang Cong and Wang Zhiwen respectively.
"Good!" Wang Baojiang said to himself, "It seems that Cheng Fei didn't attract their attention. ”
"Wu Keke is a national second-level long-distance runner," Wang Le said, "his physical strength is very good, but with Cheng Fei's breakthrough ability, it is easy to pass him ......"
Yu Yang shook his head and said, "I don't think it's right! ”
On the court, Wu Keke's defensive movements are impeccable, the position he stands in is just right, one more step is easy to be broken through by the opponent, and one less step is easy to put the opponent to shoot. He leaned his body slightly, his left hand and left foot stretched out, but his right hand and right foot blocked Cheng Fei's breakthrough line, as if making a posture of "welcome to attack from my left". Attacking from the left will inevitably face Ding Lu and Penshec, who can make up for the defense at any time.
With such a professional defensive action, Cheng Fei was slightly stunned.
Old man Zhang specializes in teaching them defensive moves, and the rangers are naturally very familiar with this kind of technical moves. However, didn't it be said before that the 13th Middle School team had rough skills, and many of them couldn't play basketball? This Wu Keke's action is clearly not something that a novice can do...... Could it be that there are professionals who have deliberately given advice?
Cheng Fei didn't have time to think so much, he slowly dribbled the ball, his eyes glancing away, and his body twisted slightly.
In an instant, the basketball in Cheng Fei's hand suddenly changed direction, from his right hand to his left hand, Wu Keke's center of gravity immediately shifted, and he quickly moved to his right side to block Cheng Fei's right breakthrough. He was moving, but he didn't expect Cheng Fei's footsteps to move just now somehow slipped away, and just now he was leaning towards the right side of his body, but at this time he turned to the left side extremely flexibly!
Such a dexterous way to get rid of it was greatly unexpected by Wu Keke!
But what was even more unexpected for Cheng Fei was that Wu Keke was able to react, and he forced to kick the ground and reversed, and one hand was still in front of Cheng Fei. However, Cheng Fei's change of hands is still deceptive, he can't rush to the side of Yang Cong and the two defenders, this action is only halfway, it is another beautiful change of hands, and at this time he really kills Wu Keke's right side!
Changing hands three times in a row, Cheng Fei successfully broke through Wu Keke!
Here, Wu Keke couldn't catch up and crashed directly into Cheng Fei's body. The referee immediately blew the whistle and signaled Wu Keke to push people for a foul. Ge Liu's cheerleaders immediately cheered.
Cheng Fei stood on the free throw line, took a deep breath, and then slowly spit it out. He looked at the basket from afar, raised his hand directly, raised his wrist, and the basketball flew over in an arc, but it hit the edge of the basket and bounced out!
No penalty! Cheng Fei shook his head in annoyance and started the second free throw.
A strange thing happened, Cheng Fei, who has always had a free throw shooting rate of about 90%, missed two free throws in a row!
Qin Yong squeezed Deng Liang away and grabbed the rebound. The 13th middle school team is hula and rushes to the front!
Cheng Fei followed closely behind Wu Keke, who was rushing with the ball. He didn't know that he was a long-distance runner, but he was relieved to find that he could keep up with his opponent in his sprints. He believes that although he doesn't feel it for the time being, his defensive ability is there, and as long as he is careful not to be deceived by the opponent, he should be able to prevent this ball.
Wu Keke ran with the ball, and this time he didn't choose to pass. In fact, in addition to Wu Keke, there have been two thirteenth middle school players who have run to the frontcourt, that is, Ding Lu and Li Nian, who are both high school sprinters. At this time, Yang Cong and Wang Zhiwen are lagging behind!
Cheng Fei chased after him, the sprint speed he burst out at this time can be seen in the speed of chasing the ace Yuan Fan of the Attached Middle School of the Waterproof Academy, looking at that posture, it is bound to give Wu Keke a simple block who is trying to make a layup!
Wu Keke took two steps and flew up. It seems that his bounce is not weak.
But Cheng Fei, who jumped up casually, made the thirteenth middle school players behind him dumbfounded. Where is jumping, it's like birds flying! Cheng Fei usually doesn't think so, but with a height of one meter seven or eight and such a bounce, the effect is amazing.
In the air, Wu Keke's body suddenly twisted, and the basketball held up in his right hand was changed to his left hand in a flash, and then with a light pad, the basketball floated up and wiped the board into the net!
Swap hands in the air and make a layup! Cheng Fei completely pounced, watching the other party score two more points!
Wang Baojiang, Yu Yang and Wang Le on the sidelines, including the rangers' brothers, were all stunned. Although it is not a perverted technique to change hands in the air to make a layup, it is difficult for beginners and even quasi-masters who have played basketball for several years to master this 'door' technique. When it comes to physical fitness, even Hou Yankun of the Sixth Middle School Colonel team will not go to the basket like this. Legend has it that there is no basketball master in the thirteenth middle school, how can a player with skills beyond the average level suddenly appear?
Yu Yang looked at Wang Le dumbfounded, and Wang Le said at a loss: "No, I'm ...... I remembered that when I interviewed that day, Wu Keke did not participate in training, I only knew that he was a long-distance runner. ”
"Look at the intelligence work you do," Yu Yang sighed. He suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd, and when he looked at it, he couldn't remember where he had seen it. So, Yu Yang pushed Wang Le and snorted.
Wang Le took a look and found that Lu Guang from Yichang No. 1 Middle School had also come, he was standing in the middle of a group of students from No. 13 Middle School, watching the game carefully. He turned back to Yu Yang and said, "It's Lu Guang, I saw it in Ge Liu's arena last time." ”
Yu Yang let out an "oh", and Wang Baojiang also heard their words and asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”
"There's a ...... there. Acquaintances! Wang Le gestured.
Wang Baojiang looked at Lu Guang, nodded, and didn't say anything more.
Wang Le beat a drum in his heart, should he say that this Lu Guang is a player of the Yichang No. 1 Middle School team? It is likely that Lu Guang has watched the Rangers three games in a row, presumably because the City No. 1 Middle School Colonel team attaches great importance to Ge Liu's opponent. However, last time, Lu Guang also said that he wanted him to keep quiet. Wang Le felt that it was right, this kind of behavior should not be said, but it was not very glorious, if Yu Yang and Wang Baojiang were told to them, maybe something unpleasant would happen, it would be better not to say it......
*****************
Yang Cong faced Ding Lu in the opposite position, glanced at Peng Xie Qi behind Ding Lu, and gasped for breath.
He has always had good physical fitness, and even when he is responsible for the main offensive tasks, he can usually maintain a steady form above half the court. But today was different, he faced players who were far superior to him in terms of physicality and were two or three people in the encirclement. The thirteenth middle school team's style of play is smart when they don't block the pass to Yang Cong, they only launch a suffocating defense after Yang Cong gets the ball, and then strangle to death.
The first quarter was almost over, and Yang Cong, who was bent on scoring wildly, actually played a low 'fan' data of only 3 of 12 shots, of which he directly suffered as many as 5 steals. Since this section basically revolves around Yang Cong playing offense, Wang Zhiwen and Cheng Fei only scored 4 points each, and the Rangers fell behind 14:25.
In fact, the Rangers are worried about Yang Cong. Since he started playing in high school, Yang Cong has always been a team-oriented, never greedy player, although he is the scoring champion of the freshman basketball league, but that is just a proof of his super ability to play singles and capture opportunities.
The original Yang Cong, has he quietly changed today?
Because of Cheng Fei's words, he made up his mind to prove himself, and the price of Yang Cong's anger this time was huge, and it happened to fall into the calculation of the 13th middle school team. With their super athleticism, the 13th Colonel thought they had finally curbed Ge Liu's ace.
The 11-point win in the first quarter was the Rangers' worst start to the National League game.
Yang Cong's eyebrows were dripping with sweat, but his resolute eyes were still staring coldly at the basket. He was as still as water, his 'legs' faintly exerting force, and he maintained a posture of bursting and sprinting at any time.
Ding Lu, who was in the opposite position, couldn't help but smile slightly when he saw Yang Cong's appearance. Just when the smile on the corner of his mouth was about to disappear, Yang Cong started again, and quickly slashed the inner line with lightning speed!
He's going to make a name for himself with the last ball!
Ding Lu restrained his smile and moved to paste, and Peng Xieqi on the inside line immediately started, their pace was so fast that Yang Cong's always fierce offensive didn't look worth mentioning! They quickly erected an iron wall, and Li Nian behind them also outflanked them.
"Yikes!" Yang Cong roared, jumped into the air, and actually held the ball in both hands, and went straight to the basket!
"Don't think!" Ding Lu immediately jumped up, holding down the basketball in Yang Cong's hand with one hand, and Peng Xie Qi over there also raised his arms, ready to meet Yang Cong's fierce button!
Probably none of them expected Yang Cong to attack in such a fierce way, Ding Lu couldn't contain Yang Cong's hands with one hand, and Peng Xieqi in front didn't know whether it was intentional or not, the 'door' between his arms was wide open, and the two roared angrily, watching Yang Cong buckle it fiercely!
With a loud bang, Yang Cong's ball was buckled on the edge of the basket, and the basketball immediately flew out!
As soon as Ding Lu and Peng Xieqi landed, they immediately jumped up to grab the basketball in the air, but they didn't expect Yang Cong to jump up before them, and flicked the basketball with one hand, making the two thirteenth middle school players pounce!
I knew you were there. When Yang Cong fell, he thought tiredly.
While Wu Keke's attention was focused on this button, Cheng Fei rushed to the free throw line and threw the ball after receiving it!
With the whistle at the end of the first quarter, the basketball flew silently into the basket.
"Whew-" Yang Cong exhaled heavily, and his body stumbled slightly. Such a 'fierce' physical confrontation, except for the one against the vocational high school, has never been encountered again. He suddenly felt as if all the strength in his body had been 'drained'.
Seeing Cheng Fei coming over, the ice and snow on Yang Cong's face melted, and he smiled. He put one hand on Cheng Fei's shoulder, walked down the field, and said, "You're right, I don't have a problem with them." ”
Cheng Fei shook his head: "No......"
Yang Cong interrupted him again: "I know, although I have nothing to do with him, we won't lose to them." Relying on Cheng Fei's support, Yang Cong limped to the bench and sat down. The dunk just now, coupled with the ensuing scramble, seemed to have caused a slight ankle injury. "I still have a brother!" He smiled at Cheng Fei, and said to Liu Junfeng again, "I'm injured, it's up to you below." ”
"Hey, hey!" Liu Junfeng said with a smile, "Don't pretend to be sick for Lao Tzu, and wait for Lao Tzu to go up and abuse them, and then let you go up and 'mix' some data." That's it! ”
"Are you alright?" Wang Baojiang asked with concern. He didn't want anyone to get hurt at this point.
"It's fine!" Yang Cong shook his head and moved his ankle, "It's just a little bit of a rush just now, just rest for a few minutes." ”
"Cheng Fei!" Yu Yang shouted. Cheng Fei looked up and saw Yu Yang, his face suddenly flushed with joy, but then he 'revealed' a little anxiety. Although it was good to see Yu Yang, but when I saw him, I remembered Yu Jing, where is she these days? What exactly is being done? Why didn't you even go to school?
Yu Yang knew it, he pulled Cheng Fei aside and said in a low voice: "I know a little bit about Yu Jing's affairs. Now she's fine, staying at home, but she's in a bad mood, and she will be relieved in a few days. Today she asked me how the hell are you doing! ”
Cheng Fei smiled bitterly and said, "Don't comfort me, how can she still want to get me?" ”
Yu Yang smiled and patted Cheng Fei on the shoulder: "Why not?" You kid is too cautious, you have to be a man with confidence. Just like that shot just now, isn't it very good, I see you, the biggest weakness is that you are too passive, whether you play or be a person, it's the same. ”
"Yes......" Cheng Fei was slightly stunned when he heard this.
This sentence directly hit the key point of Cheng Fei. Zhang Pingya once said directly to Wang Baojiang that he didn't understand why his father was optimistic about Cheng Fei, and in his opinion, Cheng Fei didn't have the need to put so much effort into training. As a basketball coach from the United States, although his vision of people is relatively accurate, it is based on the performance of the players. However, Old Man Zhang is a typical Chinese thought, able to peel back the camouflage shell of Cheng Fei and see what is essential. Father and son, although they are both 'elite' in the basketball world, but look at people's skills, at least look at the skills of Chinese, but there is a big difference.
Cheng Fei is accustomed to paying attention to accumulation and accumulation, intentionally or unintentionally concealing his strength, and completely putting actual combat behind his thinking. He is a thinker of basketball, and he relentlessly pursues the philosophy and mystery behind every detail, so much so that in the eyes of Zhang Pingya and outsiders, it is even a little dull. He is not accustomed to 'showing' his skills, which is fundamentally contrary to the American ideas accepted by Zhang Pingya.
When the whistle blew, Wang Baojiang arranged the lineup for the second quarter, replacing Cheng Fei, Yang Cong and Zhang Yulai, and replacing Li Lin, Liu Junfeng and Chen Jie.
Cheng Fei took a bottle of mineral water, filled it, and then sat down next to Wang Baojiang.
"Let's see how Liu Junfeng performs." Wang Baojiang said.
Yang Cong, who was sitting next to Cheng Fei, opened his mouth and said, "I can't know his strength very well. He's very strong, he should be able to tear through the defense line of the thirteenth middle school, but, ***, sitting here and watching him scenery, I'm really not used to it. ”
