Chapter 155: The Beginning and the End

There are 30 seconds left until the end of the game.

At the most critical moment, Cui Jun did not pass the ball and shouldered the heavy responsibility of the core player. Facing Cheng Fei, who had continuously blocked his shots, Cui Jun did not hesitate at all, and did not even do a shaking action, and directly stepped back and turned over for a jumper. This intention, of course, did not have the judgment of escaping Cheng Fei, and the touch of his fingertips drove him to jump up immediately, and his arm waved in the direction of Cui Jun's shot!

Cheng Fei still accurately captured the timing and direction of Cui Jun's shot, but this time, Cui Jun still made a successful shot.

The orange-red 'colored' basketball swirled, swept past Cheng Fei's fingertips, brought a slight cool breeze, and 'shot' at the basket behind him. The angles are impeccable and the direction is accurate. That's the role of the ace, you just contain him in the previous games, and at the last moment, he can still calmly shoot in front of you and complete the fatal blow!

Cui Jun raised his hands and fell backwards, his eyes fixed on the spinning basketball; Cheng Fei also turned his head with a hint of despair in his eyes.

The audience held their breath. Wang Baojiang stood up, Zhang Pingya also stood up, Chen Jie, Li Lin and Zhang Yulai clenched their fists and looked at the basketball nervously.

If this ball can be thrown, Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School will have a three-point advantage, and 84:81 is enough to 'force' the Rangers into a desperate situation. And as long as there is a dead ball, Coach Gu will definitely use the last timeout, so that the Rangers will have to face Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School, which has already arranged a defensive formation. As long as Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School stubbornly defends the outside line, even if the Rangers can score, they will not be able to save the defeat.

Just when Cui Jun breathed a sigh of relief and was about to withdraw his hand to return to the defense, the ball that was supposed to go straight to the basket didn't know what evil happened, and "Dong Dong Dong" quickly rebounded in the basket a few times, and it popped up the basket again! caused an uproar in the audience!

"Good!" Yu Yang couldn't help but shout.

Before the words fell, Deng Liang, who was about to jump up and grab the rebound, was overwhelmed by the black clouds on his head, and in the exclamations of the audience, Liu Ke, who was wearing the No. 11 purple 'color' suit, jumped into the air and almost pressed on Deng Liang's shoulders, grabbed the basketball with both hands in mid-air, and the strong waist and abdomen were 'straightened' hard, as if the bow was bent to 'shoot' the eagle, and the basketball was slammed into it with a "click"!

The audience was silent, and then the audience erupted in warm applause!

What a menacing dunk, Liu Ke grabbed the basket and shook it twice, and after landing on the ground, he punched the sky fiercely, and roared arrogantly!

"Good!" Coach Gu couldn't help but scream, his face was flushed with excitement, and he slapped his face fiercely. The players on the bench of Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School all cheered!

"Toot-" The referee blew the whistle and raised his hand to signal, "Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School requests a timeout!" ”

In the cheers like a 'tide', Liu Ke swept away the 'gloom' haze of his previous defeat, walked off the field with his head held high, and greeted the cheers of his teammates. His goal was too crucial, and he directly 'forced' Gezhouba No. 6 Middle School to a desperate situation. It should be said that the super rookie, who was burdened with 4 fouls, finally lived up to Coach Gu's expectations, not only scoring key defensive rebounds, but also picking up more critical frontcourt rebounds and scoring on dunks. These two rebounds and a dunk undoubtedly added a lot of weight to the final victory of Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School!

Cui Jun was still expressionless, but he also high-fived Liu Ke fiercely! The two glanced at each other, tacitly acknowledging each other.

This time in the national league, these two super players are competing together for the first time and for the last. After the league, Cui Jun also has to devote himself to intense study, although he is qualified enough to become a basketball special student, but he can't fall behind in cultural classes. And Liu Ke is about to usher in the most important high school era in his life, and Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School is the stage for him to show his ambitions. These two trump cards and two leaders are here to 'hand' each other, saying that they are precious, why bother to complain?

As Director Chen said, winning or losing is one thing, basketball is another.

Over there, Zhang Pingya was nervously arranging what might be the last attack, "The formation they arranged is like this, we have to run like this", Zhang Pingya moved the chess pieces calmly, the rangers' hearts were all tight, Cheng Fei tried to concentrate on the 'spirit' and read Zhang Pingya's formation. He was already tired, tired. "Here, Cheng Fei shoots a three-point shot; If it doesn't work, change to Li Lin's point; If they block like this, then ......" Zhang Pingya arranged several different ways to deal with it, the focus is to 'hand' the ball to Cheng Fei and save the situation with a three-point shot. But they all knew in their hearts that if these runs were destroyed, time would only become more and more unfavorable for the Rangers.

"Toot-" The referee signaled that the timeout was up, and the players from both sides entered.

"The focus is on the outside line, it's the 12th! Remember, let them shoot two points and don't foul! Coach Gu finally instructed.

Cui Jun took the lead and walked on the field, followed by Liu Ke, who moved his hands and was still so full of physical strength. Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School quickly arranged a defensive formation and waited for it. As Yang Cong served to Wang Zhiwen, the time on the scoreboard began to beat: 27, 26, 25......

"Come on! Come on six! "Come on! Come on in the fourth! "In the huge basketball hall of Wuhan University, there are shouts from top to bottom, and about half of the people support Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School, and the other half support Gezhouba No. 6 Middle School. This 'fine' color battle is about to come to an end!

Wang Zhiwen advanced to the front court like a whirlwind with the ball, and the rangers did not dare to delay for a second, and quickly began to run according to Zhang Pingya's arrangement. But Coach Gu was obviously prepared, and the defensive pressure of Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School increased a lot, Liu Ke entangled Cheng Fei to death, and Cui Jun kept running with Cheng Fei. These two aces almost surrounded Cheng Fei on the outside, and the idea of letting Cheng Fei shoot a three-point shot to break the game was obviously bankrupt!

"Time is running out! QuickPass! Liu Junfeng yelled from the sidelines.

Yang Cong took Wang Zhiwen's pass, pulled out his foot and rushed into ***, and Song Xiaojun stuck to the side tightly. The bodies of the two collided violently, and the referee stared at them sternly with a whistle. Yang Cong's forced breakthrough could not be advanced to *** at all, and Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School not only had a solid defense on the outside, but also an indestructible inside! What's more, there is still their giant Zhang Liang standing under the basket.

"Give it to me!" Cheng Fei, who was pulled to the outside line, suddenly flashed over Liu Ke's right side, Liu Ke's footsteps did not follow, and he stretched out his hand and pulled Cheng Fei. Cheng Fei, who was off the ball, naturally did not lose his balance, he also retaliated with a tooth for a tooth, shook off Liu Ke, and rushed into the three-point line. Yang Cong's eyes were quick, and with a hit pass, Cheng Fei grabbed the basketball in a thrilling way, but unfortunately Cui Jun had already stopped in front of him, waving his thin arms up and down, blocking Cheng Fei to death!

Over there, Liu Ke was coming from behind, and he was about to completely choke Cheng Fei. There are 17 seconds left on the scoreboard......

"It's over!" Yu Yang sighed sadly.

At the same time that Liu Ke pounced from behind, Cheng Fei suddenly dribbled sideways, avoiding Liu Ke's edge. Then, he shakes the ball, spins his body with his left foot as the axis, and kicks the ground with his right foot! The whole set of movements is clean and neat, without any mud and water, and this is obviously the step-back jumper that Cui Jun used just now!

The step-back jumper is suitable for players with tall and long arms, this technique is more delicate, but the effect is great, and Zhang Xiaodi of Yichang No. 1 Middle School also likes to use it, but so far, Cui Jun is the most suitable and handy player for the step-back jumper. If the retreat is not far enough and the height and arm length are not enough, it is difficult to get rid of the interference of the other party; And if it is withdrawn too far, it is obviously out of balance and loses the meaning of this technology.

While luring Liu Ke into the air, Cheng Fei calmly used a retreat step to instantly widen the distance between him and Cui Jun. The problem is that Cui Jun's height and arm length are enough to control a larger range, and Cheng Fei is very difficult to fight Cui Jun completely head-on......

"Don't think!" Cui Jun roared angrily, leaned forward, and jumped up with Cheng Fei!

The two aces in the lineup of the two sides, or rather, the sharpest spears in the game, stabbed straight at the hardest shield!

Coach Gu had a smile on his face. He wasn't worried at all, because even if Cheng Fei scored this goal, he had achieved his goal, and it was enough to control the time and win; And he absolutely trusts Cui Jun, facing the defense at such a critical moment, and will not let the opponent score again......

"What!" Cui Jun's heart sank. That Cheng Fei used the movement of the backward step, and actually used the action of volleying backward jumper, which shows how much power he used at the moment when his right foot touched the ground when he jumped. His body maintains the most standard shooting position, forming a nearly 60-degree angle to the ground, which is not your average step-back jumper! This is the last trick that Cheng Fei had to try, just to avoid the ironclad Xiangfan Fourth Central Defense Line!

In mid-air, Cheng Fei tried his best to maintain a stable shooting posture, and when Cui Jun was exhausted and was falling, he flicked the basketball lightly!

There was a burst of exclamations from the audience, and Cheng Fei once again showed his amazing ability to stay in the air, shooting with a step-back lever to get the most valuable shooting space. The whole audience stared at the ball and spun and floated out, and Cheng Fei sat directly on the ground because of the sharp retreat, and slid out far away.

The basketball fell silently into the net, and immediately 'provoked' a round of applause!

Coach Gu showed an incredible expression and shook his head.

The score on the scoreboard was changed to 84:83, with 14 seconds remaining......

It's too late to celebrate. Although Cheng Fei showed the role of a trump card at the most critical moment, under such a strong attack by Cui Jun and Liu Ke, he still scored 2 points stably, but after all, the ball returned to the hands of Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School, and the opponent had the absolute initiative, as long as it was lost in 14 seconds, even if there was no score, the Rangers would bid farewell to this year's national league!

On the court, the sound of the friction between the shoes and the floor was endless, and Zhou Shi threw the ball to Cui Jun under the constant interference of Wang Zhiwen. Cheng Fei resisted Cui Jun tightly, and the veteran of Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School calmly 'handed over' the ball to Zhou Shi.

12 seconds, 11 seconds......

The Rangers were pressed down, sweating profusely and panting, staring longingly at the flying basketballs, hoping for a chance. But after all, Zhou Shi is the main point guard of Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School, and he has seen how much of the world, and Cui Jun has always been firmly in control of the situation on the court.

Yang Cong always stared at Zhou Shi, his strong body was able to fight against Zhou Shi, and his ability to break the ball and attack quickly was second to none among the Rangers. But, even so, Zhou Shi still didn't let him take any advantage. It's just that the Rangers who are pressed by the whole formation make it difficult for Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School to run the ball smoothly to the front court. The two sides were entangled and entangled again and again......

9 seconds.

Cui Jun was chased by Cheng Fei and threw the ball to Liu Ke, who ran over to answer. This time, the situation suddenly opened, and after Liu Ke received the ball, he turned around and shook off Li Lin, and instantly hit outside the three-point line in the front court. Facing him was Wang Zhiwen.

Wang Zhiwen, who is 1.74 meters tall, is too thin in front of Liu Ke.

Liu Ke snorted coldly, skillfully and suddenly changed direction, and wanted to use absolute speed to pass past Wang Zhiwen's side, but he didn't expect that the other party's lateral speed was so fast, and it was lightly attached to Liu Ke's side. Because of the fear of fouls, Liu Ke did not force the opponent away, he was in shape, his right hand slapped quickly, the basketball was changed from the crotch to the left hand, and then a beautiful crotch dribble!

"Liu Ke!" Choi Jun shouted loudly. He asked Liu Ke not to be in such a hurry.

Before the words fell, Liu Ke's body shook slightly, and the basketball in his hand was gone.

The person who broke the ball was the MVP of the Gezhouba No. 6 High School Basketball League, the captain of the Rangers, a super rookie who used to be able to defend Xu Jian, and a real veteran who has always provided Cheng Fei with sufficient motivation.

6 seconds.

Cheng Fei's ears couldn't hear the shouts of the audience, and he didn't know what those people were shouting. Liu Junfeng opened his mouth wide and jumped in the most 'excited' posture, Zhang Pingya's whole face was red, Wang Baojiang's eyes were as big as copper bells, and Coach Gu almost rushed into the field in a rage. There are still a lot of people, a lot of people are screaming, shouting......

He took a sluggish step, and a large turn shook Zhou Shi, this action made the tired Cheng Fei almost fall to the ground, but he still stubbornly rushed into the front court. Cui Jun, with that rare and vicious expression, stopped in front.

3 seconds.

Cheng Fei heard Liu Ke's footsteps rushing wildly, and in front of him was Cui Jun with teeth and claws.

He didn't have time to hesitate and dribbled the ball with his left hand straight into the diagonal corner and rose to the ground. Basketball's eyes opened suddenly, but what he saw was Cui Jun's fierce slender arms and Liu Ke, who was about to eat him.

The step-back jumper is not invincible. Wu Zhongmin said.

What exactly is invincible?

In the blurred vision, Cheng Fei felt that someone was standing beside him, and a clearly distinguishable voice sounded in his ears: "This is Cheng Fei's dream." He wanted to play basketball, and it was his choice. I respect his dream, and I am willing to do my best to help him realize it! ”

Cheng Fei, who had black hair flying, was falling, he had no room to shoot, and Liu Ke and Cui Jun blocked everything. At the moment when he landed on the ground with amazing waist and abdominal strength, his right hand suddenly flipped out, and the basketball flew out.

1 second.

What is truly invincible is the trust in friends.

Because trust has the power to change a person's life and future.

Your trust has brought me to where I am today. My trust can also make your dreams come true.

Wang Zhiwen stood one step inside the three-point line, only three steps away from Cheng Fei at the bottom line. Yes, he was standing at forty-five corners of the left half. It was the shooting position he was most familiar with, and he missed that shot exactly a year ago on the court downstairs in his dorm room against the varsity trio.

He lost not only a perhaps inconsequential victory, but also a youthful frivolity that was so high-spirited.

He had tried to find it, but in front of the wall of ruthless fate, his head was broken again and again.

He never scored that damn goal again.

Today, however, it seems to be a little different. In fact, it is no different, he still conscientiously controls the ball, organizes, passes the ball to Cheng Fei, and passes it to any brother who wants to get the ball, he is more tired than any game.

However, there is really something different.

A kind of power was transmitted from the basketball at the moment when Wang Zhiwen received the ball. Maybe it's those clear eyes. He remembered that the boy walked into the room of the sink when he was most frustrated, and it was also these eyes, the black pupils without a trace of impurities, as clear as the spring water of a mountain stream. To this day, those eyes remain the same.

"Let's play together, you teach me."

"It's a deal."

The two hands are clasped tightly together and shaken up and down.

Yes, it's this power, hand-to-hand, heart-to-heart power!

Wang Zhiwen seemed to be standing on the court downstairs of the former dormitory, Li Lin and Chen Jie were lying on the windowsill with a smile, Zhang Yulai was holding a telescope on the teaching building, Deng Liang, Liu Junfeng and Yang Cong were standing on the sidelines, and Cheng Feiju looked at him attentively, and there was no one in front of him.

Catch the ball, sink your waist, bend your knees, and shoot. His shots were as fast and fluid as ever, making it difficult to see the action.

The basketball rose into the sky, the whistle sounded, and Wang Zhiwen's head went blank.

The crowd in the basketball hall of Wuhan University seemed to suddenly burst open, and there was an amazing shout, and even the roof was about to be torn over. Wang Zhiwen's two ears rumbled, he thought his ears were ringing, and he just stood there stunned. Yang Cong rushed over and punched Wang Zhiwen in front of his chest, Deng Liang's strong arm clamped him hard, and there were many people, screaming desperately, the whole world went crazy!

He looked up with a smirk, the time on the scoreboard had run out, and the score was fixed at - 84:85.

Wang Zhiwen made a whistle at the last moment, announcing that Gezhouba No. 6 Middle School eliminated Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School in the third round of the National High School Basketball League, and entered the top eight of the Central China Division of the National League!

Cheng Fei walked over, his eyes shining with 'excited' tears. Wang Zhiwen couldn't control his emotions at all, and two streams of clear water flowed down his face. The two hands were clasped tightly, and then they hugged each other tightly, and all eight brothers hugged each other tightly, and the tears flowed and flowed......

The basketball hall of Wuhan University has become a boiling ocean. Only the rest area of Xiangfan No. 4 Middle School was silent, and Coach Gu held his head and sat on the bench dejectedly. Liu Ke sat on the floor, staring blankly at the scoreboard. Choi Jun walked to the rest area, still expressionless.

For them, the journey of the national league has come to an end. I thought it would be a long journey, but it was so short, and I said goodbye in a hurry.

"They should also go," sighed Wang of the Huagong Sports Department, "They still have a long way to go, whether it is Cui Jun or Liu Ke, their basketball life has just been staged......

"Leave the honor to this group of children," the director of the sports department of Wuhan University continued, "Gezhouba No. 6 Middle School, they are eligible to enjoy this victory and win this honor." A new chapter is about to be opened. ”

On the field, Zhang Pingya, Wang Baojiang, and Wu Zhongmin all raised their hands with the rangers and bowed to the boiling crowd in thanks. The enthusiastic audience set off a 'tidal' wave of applause again and again, and the sky over the ancient and magnificent Wuhan University Gymnasium lasted for a long time......
