Chapter 2: Crushing Strength
Liu Xiaodong shook his numb right hand, he tried his best to intercept the basketball flying in the air, just to give Li Qiang some color, let him know the gap with himself, and establish a psychological advantage for the next game.
"Next time, I'll break through!" Li Qiang secretly said in his heart that he still couldn't make effective shots under Liu Xiaodong's defense, which made him as frustrated as ever.
Liu Xiaodong received a basketball from a young man on the sidelines, slapped it twice, and prepared to start attacking.
Li Qiang took a step back, lowered his center of gravity, and prepared to prevent a breakthrough. He knew that Liu Xiaodong had changed his shooting action and had no accuracy, as long as he could limit the opponent's breakthrough, he had hope of winning.
Seeing Li Qiang's defensive moves, Liu Xiaodong couldn't help but secretly say: "You can't play with someone who knows you too well, he will magnify all your shortcomings!" ”
"I'll give you a chance, do you dare to vote?" Li Qiang said sarcastically.
"You made me vote!" After Liu Xiaodong finished speaking, he took the ball to the three-point line, his legs suddenly bent, and at the same time he held the ball with both hands and raised it to his chest.
Liu Xiaodong's realistic feints made Li Qiang mistakenly think that Liu Xiaodong would really shoot, and he quickly rushed forward, ready to give Liu Xiaodong a volleyball-style hot pot hat!
Seeing that Li Qiang was deceived, the corners of Liu Xiaodong's mouth showed a smile of victory. He quickly took the ball off his head, lowered his center of gravity and accelerated past Li Qiang from the right side, rushed to the free throw line within two steps, and jumped up with his legs violently, and scored the ball with a gliding slam dunk.
The young people on the sidelines exclaimed again, they couldn't believe that this was a freshman who could do a slam dunk, even if Liu Xiaodong was a special sports student, it couldn't make them less shocked by Liu Xiaodong's talent!
"Good shot!" Liu Mu was the first to react from the shock, and he liked Liu Xiaodong's elegant dunk very much. If Liu Xiaodong can practice shooting well, this year's Hecheng University will not only aim to enter the "regional competition", but may be able to go further in the "University League".
Li Qiang lowered his smug head, as an opponent on the field, he couldn't judge like the audience watching the play, he was a victim in this duel.
"Your defense is still so bad, just like your shooting, it doesn't change..."Liu Xiaodong picked up the basketball on the ground, passed it to Li Qiang, and then stood at the three-point line, almost face to face and began to play his mouth cannon skills against Li Qiang.
Li Qiang tried to breathe evenly, so as not to be angry with Liu Xiaodong. He secretly made up his mind that he must fight for the ball this round, and he must score the ball to shut up this damn bastard!
Li Qiang controls the ball with his left hand, and he has to use a skillful left shake to break to the right. Because he doesn't have as much dexterity with his left hand as he does with his right, he wants to use the first step to open up the distance. Li Qiang first took a step to the left with his left foot, shook his left shoulder to make a breakthrough feint, and after the center of gravity was lowered, he slammed the basketball to his right hand with his left hand, ready to accelerate the breakthrough.
Liu Xiaodong, who was familiar with Li Qiang's offensive routine, was of course not fooled, and he quickly moved sideways to the right to block Li Qiang's breakthrough line.
Although his routine was recognized, Li Qiang did not give up the idea of attacking.
He also has a lot of moves, such as shaking his right shoulder, stopping the breakthrough and jumping straight to shoot. He learned this trick while watching a video of Maddy's game recently, especially when the defender is about the same height as himself.
Li Qiang stepped back and jumped to shoot, catching Liu Xiaodong, who was defending him, off guard.
Liu Xiaodong quickly chased and jumped, his outstretched right hand did not touch the flying basketball, and could only watch the basketball fly overhead.
The basketball crossed a huge throwing arc and fell sharply at a distance of ten centimeters from the basket, smashing on the concrete floor.
"Three don't stick!" This was Liu Xiaodong's first reaction when he turned to look at the basket. Although he didn't touch the basketball, his straight right arm also affected the arc of Li Qiang's shot.
The young people on the sidelines looked at each other, this is one of the few three-non-stick shots in their memory, how strong Liu Xiaodong's defensive ability is, it can be seen!
Liu Mu looked at Liu Xiaodong, who did not have any joy on his face, he knew that this ball might be scored if it was a player with a good mentality, after all, Liu Xiaodong's defense did not completely block the opponent's shooting space. It's not that Liu Xiaodong is too strong, but Li Qiang is too weak!
Liu Xiaodong received the basketball passed by Li Qiang, and he was not in a hurry to attack. He knew very well that Li Qiang would defend himself more hard if he didn't score the last goal.
Liu Xiaodong first made a big step to the right outside the three-point line, wanting to see Li Qiang's defensive reaction.
Li Qiang quickly took a step back, his feet stretched out slightly wider than his shoulders, the center of gravity of his body dropped, the two retreats were slightly bent, his hands were stretched out, and his body was slightly tilted forward. He wants to use the "all-round defense" action to limit Liu Xiaodong's breakthrough direction and interfere with Liu Xiaodong's attack.
Liu Xiaodong took the ball back, turned his head to look at the left, pretended to cross the left side, and when the ball was close to the middle of the body, he chose to break through to the right side again.
Li Qiang shook back to the left, leaving enough space for Liu Xiaodong to shoot at a 45-degree angle on the right side.
Liu Xiaodong didn't hesitate and threw the ball out with his standard shooting move. He knows that against players in the same position, it is impossible to rely on breakthroughs to score every time, and the combination of sudden shots is king.
In Li Qiang's surprised gaze, the basketball stumbled and fell into the basket.
Liu Xiaodong breathed a long sigh of relief, this ball was thrown, and he had no confidence that it could score.
Li Qiang took the basketball with a depressed face, he knew very well how terrible it was for Liu Xiaodong to find his shooting touch.
At the moment when Li Qiang was thinking about life, Liu Xiaodong rushed up and snatched the basketball controlled by Li Qiang. By the time Li Qiang reacted and turned around to chase the defense, Liu Xiaodong had already rushed to the basket to complete a split dunk.
Li Qiang hit Liu Xiaodong with the ball on his back, and he wanted to attack in a different way. Liu Xiaodong leaned forward, pressed his hands against Li Qiang's back, and shifted his center of gravity slightly forward. Since the two have similar physical fitness, Liu Xiaodong does not need to use a lot of strength to resist Li Qiang and no longer advance smoothly.
Li Qiang turned his back to Liu Xiaodong's tight defense, and he wanted to use his back to push Liu Xiaodong away and make a layup under the basket.
But when he exerted his strength, Liu Xiaodong suddenly retreated, and Li Qiang exerted his strength and fell backwards in the air. Liu Xiaodong leaned over and snatched the basketball in his hand, and scored again with a relaxed gliding slam dunk.
Li Qiang's mentality was a little broken, he didn't want to fight like this with Liu Xiaodong. But because of the face between men, he didn't want to end up like this.
In the next game time, it was simply Liu Xiaodong's dunk performance, all kinds of fancy dunks, which made Li Qiang feel the urge to die!
In the end, Li Qiang was already numb, so if you lose, you will lose! Liu Xiaodong is a potential rising star of Hecheng University, and he is just a newcomer to the bench who does not enter the university, and he should be abused.
