Chapter 40: Swift Ride
In the away team's locker room, the players of Hecheng University were very excited, and they did not dare to think that they would be able to draw with Gulin University at half-time before the game.
This is a big encouragement for Hecheng players, especially players like Liu Mu and Guo Cheng who are unwilling to be ordinary, and they want to win this game!
They don't have much time left in college, Yanagi is likely to be able to participate in the CBA after the league, while Guo Cheng is in his final year of college, and if he can't leave some results for the team, he will graduate with regrets.
It is unknown whether he will be able to play like this in the future, Guo Cheng is very aware of his height defect, and not many professional teams will give him a chance.
"Don't get excited too soon! We still have a lot of questions to solve if we want to win this victory! Zhang Tiejun said with a calm face, he knew that he was still far from the final victory, and Gulin University would not let himself.
"Xiaodong, in the second half, you have to strengthen the offense, whether it is a breakthrough or a shot, as long as you can put the ball in the basket, everything is up to you, I just want you to score, keep scoring!"
"Liu Mu, Zhu Zihua, when you two wrap up Zhang Yuhang, you have to be tough, and you can't let him score on the inside like in the first half!"
"Others, pay attention to more defense, especially for Sun Bin, Guo Cheng and Qian Ning, you should watch more, and you can take foul tactics if necessary!" Zhang Tiejun arranged it this way, just to let Liu Xiaodong focus on the offensive end, after all, he felt very good today.
The break passed quickly, and the second half of the game began as the electronic buzz sounded in the gymnasium!
Gulin University served, Sun Bin couldn't bear to teach the newcomer a lesson, so he ran directly to the bottom line to ask for the ball.
Liu Xiaodong stood on the middle line and waited, he didn't believe that Sun Bin could shoot a super long three-pointer.
Sun Bin didn't have a hot head, he controlled the ball all the way down, until he was stopped by Liu Xiaodong, and then slowed down his attack.
"Rookie, you are ready to be abused!" Sun Bin pushed Liu Xiaodong on his shoulders and went to the three-point line. Before Guo Cheng was about to come over to wrap up, he stepped back and jumped to shoot.
"You're in luck!" Liu Xiaodong watched the basketball fall into the basket and shook his head helplessly, he knew that this time the defense failed.
"Sun Bin's goal is very technical, his footsteps and shots are done in one go, even if Liu Xiaodong has been defended in place, he still can't stop him from scoring!" Zhang Weijie said.
Hecheng University served, Guo Cheng took the ball through the half court, and passed the ball directly without dragging mud and water. After Liu Xiaodong received the ball, he thought about how to attack while controlling the ball.
Sun Bin stuck to Liu Xiaodong at the three-point line, and while he opened his arms to block the opponent, he also constantly observed the situation on both sides, ready to change defenses or intercept the passing route at any time.
Liu Xiaodong knew that there was no space for shooting, so he could only choose to break through, he quickly broke through to the right side, and Sun Bin moved laterally to prepare to intercept.
Liu Xiaodong suddenly disguised himself to the left before colliding with Sun Bin, throwing his opponent away and rushing towards the penalty area.
Just when Liu Xiaodong reached the free throw line, he suddenly stopped and raised the ball above his head, apparently trying to shoot.
Chu Zhiyuan, who rushed over, jumped quickly, wanting to cover Liu Xiaodong's shot in the air, but he didn't know that he had been fooled.
Seeing that Chu Zhiyuan had been deceived, Liu Xiaodong quickly dribbled to the three-second zone, glared hard with his legs, and was ready to jump up and complete a dunk.
But Zhang Yuhang has abandoned the willow wood, rushed to the basket and jumped up, although he was not as early as Liu Xiaodong to jump, but he was tall and long-armed, and he was about to shoot Liu Xiaodong's hand basketball when he saw the right hand that was waved out.
Just when the audience thought that Liu Xiaodong was about to die, Liu Xiaodong in the air showed a smile, he suddenly withdrew the ball to his chest before the basketball was about to touch Zhang Tiejun's right hand, and after his body twisted to the other side, he gently picked the ball to the basket. The basketball fell in after two spins on the hoop.
"Good shot! This is a high-quality pull-up layup, although the waist and abdomen strength is lacking, but it does not hinder the stretch and beauty of the movement! Zhang Weijie said.
Off the court, Zhang Tiejun smiled, he knew that his change was right, the previous use of Liu Xiaodong was too old-fashioned, which completely limited Liu Xiaodong's offensive ability, especially the impact on the basket.
Gulin University attacked, Sun Bin once again played the role of point guard, directly brought the ball through the half, relying on Liu Xiaodong to play with his back to the single.
This time he didn't succeed, Qian Ning came over in time to help defend, so that Sun Bin almost made a mistake in controlling the ball, and the anxious Sun Bin dribbled the ball back to the three-point line and jumped directly, but unfortunately Liu Xiaodong interfered with the shooting route, and the basketball bounced out of the basket.
Zhang Feng didn't have time to think about it when he stood at the free throw line, and opened his arms to grab Liu Xiaodong.
However, Liu Xiaodong, who was like a rainbow, didn't take the opponent in front of him in his eyes at all, he concocted it in the same way, and turned his back and left Zhang Feng behind.
After passing the people, Liu Xiaodong directly hit the three-second zone, faced the empty basket that was unguarded, and jumped up directly to complete the dunk.
"It's too fast! In the blink of an eye, Liu Xiaodong passed two people in a row and rushed to the basket to dunk successfully, which made the opponents who defended him have no time to react! The host's eyes widened and he looked at the defense again before he believed that everything that happened was true.
Zhang Wei looked at the blue No. 8 in the video and was also surprised, he has been abroad a few times, and he has seen many fast guards abroad, but there is such a fast degree in China, it is really rare.
The players from Gulin University looked at the big screen in a daze, and after a long time, they turned their eyes to Liu Xiaodong, as if they had seen this newcomer for the first time.
Especially the most surprising is Sun Bin, he has been playing against Liu Xiaodong throughout the game, and he has never seen such a fast speed, how can it suddenly become so fast, which makes him feel unreal.
At this time, Liu Xiaodong, the focus of the audience, just high-fived his teammates who came to celebrate the goal, and did not care too much about the eyes of others.
The players of Hecheng University are also accustomed to it, and when they were training, they also saw Liu Xiaodong break through, and they had to understand the speed of the galloping wind.
Gulin University attacked, Sun Bin did not go to the baseline to receive the ball this time, but ran according to the tactics, he knew that he was targeted by the tactics of the Hecheng players, so he wanted to create offensive opportunities for his teammates.
However, Zhang Feng stood on the outside, controlled the ball and searched for a long time, but did not find a suitable teammate to receive the ball, and finally passed the ball to Sun Bin's hands.
As soon as Sun Bin received the ball, Liu Xiaodong came up to defend it, and Qian Ning quickly moved closer to Sun Bin and deliberately blocked the passing route.
Sun Bin didn't shake off Liu Xiaodong in a series of feints, so he had to take two steps back and prepare to make a three-point shot again.
Liu Xiaodong knew that he couldn't block the basketball, so he directly waved his hand to block Sun Bin's eyes, allowing the latter to throw the ball out in the dark.
In the absence of a precise target, the basketball falls straight down two steps away from the basket.
