Chapter 19: The Warriors Again

The next chapter is going to enlarge the move)

Yesterday should have been the most pleasant day for Gan Guoyang.

I did well in exams, started training early, went to a football game to play soy sauce, and became a football hero at Palo Alto High School.

Although yesterday's game was just a warm-up game, the final 50-yard finish was one of the most exciting scenes in rugby. It is equivalent to 35 seconds and 13 minutes of Maddie in later generations.

After the game, many people recognized that this guy was not from the football team, but the Chinese Gan from the basketball team. At this time, Gan Guoyang became famous at Palo Alto High School.

But there is an old Chinese saying that "good fortune lurks in disguise", and if a person's luck is too good, he will naturally start to fall.

This Thursday, Gan Guoyang woke up in the morning and felt that something was wrong, and he felt as if there was something wrong with his back.

In yesterday's game, he was first put down by a big bear hug on the front line of Crystal Springs Highland High School, and then he was coaxed up by his pig teammates, and he felt that his back was a little swollen.

When he returned to the dormitory in the evening, Gan Guohui showed his eldest cousin a look at his back and found that there was a slight bruise in one place.

Gan Guoyang felt that there was nothing wrong, so he wiped it with some safflower oil, thinking that he would be fine the next day by sleeping at night.

As a result, when I woke up today, I found that I got up from the bed, and my back hurt so much that I almost fell back into bed.

Gan Guoyang was a little panicked at this time, if he injured his back because of playing a rugby, it would be over! He still remembers how Maddie was ruined by a back injury.

Later, Gan Guohui gave Gan Guoyang a little massage, and he felt that his muscles were relaxed, and the pain was not so strong.

Gan Guoyang was worried about his back all day today, even though he had become a big star at school at this time.

Everywhere he went, he was greeted by people who even came to see him at the door of his class.

This is a treatment that Gan Guoyang has never enjoyed before, even if he also played the savior in the warm-up match against McClaude High School last time, but it was an away game after all.

And it wasn't nearly as thrilling as yesterday's rugby game. In addition, Gan Guoyang is still a temporary cameo and a temporary worker, which adds to the legend.

"Hey, Gan, you know what, some of the girls in our class are starting to ask me for your phone number." After school in the afternoon, Diepenbrock, who was going to train with Gan Guoyang, said.

"Alright Peter, I only have the phone number of the Gan family's restaurant, if they want to eat something delicious, they can make this call." Gan Guoyang is not in the mood to care about these "good things" at all, he is about to be tortured to death by all kinds of strangers' greetings and his own back today.

Moreover, there is one more worrying thing for Gan Guoyang now, that is, he is about to meet Coach Bellman.

Gan Guoyang is sure that Bellman must have known about his trip to rugby yesterday - even if it was only for a dozen seconds, because the whole school knew about it.

Gan Guoyang never expected that in the shell of an elegant gentleman like Bellman, there was such a "brutal" soul. He felt that he would definitely be sprayed when he arrived at the training hall today, and until he was sprayed out of his body, Bellman would not give up.

Sure enough, after Gan Guoyang arrived at the gymnasium tremblingly, Bellman was already waiting there with his waist crossed, and all the other team members were far away, for fear of being affected by saliva.

Gan Guoyang consciously walked up to Bellman and was mentally prepared to be scolded.

"Gan, you did a great job yesterday and won glory for Palo Alto High School, and this game will definitely remain in the history of Palo Alto High School."

Bellman opened his mouth, but instead of scolding Gan Guoyang, he praised Gan Guoyang.

"Hold... I'm sorry Mr. Bellman, I shouldn't have just taken part in another competition. Gan Guoyang was worried that this was the calm before the storm.

"I was approached this morning by Coach Hawkins of the rugby team and wanted you to join the rugby team at the same time." Bellman continued.

In American high schools, there are many athletic geniuses who are masters of dual sport, especially basketball and football, such as James and Iverson in later generations. There are also basketball and volleyball masters like Badinger.

"No, Mr. Bellman, I just want to play basketball, and I only play basketball. I'm not going to join the rugby team. This sentence is Gan Guoyang's sincere words. Yesterday, after being crushed by Tarzan and playing trapeze, he decided never to play the dangerous sport of rugby again.

Moreover, Gan Guoyang had an idea in his mind, that is, he had set Hardiness to 80 in NBAlive2004, and he should not be injured so easily, after all, it was the data at the NBA intensity.

So now there is something strange in his back, there are only two explanations, one is that he was just a simple bruise, and it would be good to rest for a few days; The second is that this Hardiness's data ability only works in basketball! Once he runs to play other sports, it's dead!

Bellman nodded and continued: "Gan, since that's the case, from today onwards, you can only engage in two sports, one, basketball, and two, it's fucking basketball!" ”

Bellman began to reveal his true form, he was already devoted to the player, and he was very unhappy with the behavior of playing this and that, and thought it was a great waste of talent.

That's why he never allowed his players to play in other sports.

"If you dare to play rugby in the future, then I'm going to fucking stuff that oval orb into your asshole so that you don't have to worry about constipation for the rest of your life! Do you understand? ”

Gan Guoyang felt relieved about Bellman's sudden change, this is the Bellman coach he is used to.

In this way, Gan Guoyang's heart settled down and continued to devote himself to training day after day.

However, he still has some discomfort in his back, especially when doing back-to-body exercises and shooting exercises. Because he was injured by the muscle in the right shoulder blade of his back, once he made a tentative back movement and a shooting action, there was a feeling of stiffness that greatly affected his efficiency.

"Hey, Gan, what the fuck is wrong with you? Playing rugby stupid? Tension yourself up and focus! What are you waiting for? Bellman always hesitated when he saw Gan Guoyang doing movements, thinking that he had rested for two days and was a little uncomfortable in training.

After the training, Bellman approached Gan Guoyang and asked, "What's wrong with Gan today?" You're not in good shape, and I can tell you're hesitant to do it. Is there something wrong with your body? ”

"Uh, I'm fine, coach, I just rested for two days and was a little slack."

"Okay, no problem, tomorrow's warm-up game will be up to you."

Bellman also didn't realize that Gan Guoyang may have suffered a back injury from playing football, after all, he only played more than ten seconds yesterday and was still the quarterback responsible for passing.

Gan Guoyang was pitted by a "temporary teammate", and tomorrow, he is likely to pit his teammates on the basketball team.

McClawe High School will visit Palo Alto tomorrow Friday for a warm-up game to avenge their last home defeat.

Gan Guoyang knew that his opponent must be menacing, and he injured his back again. He didn't dare to tell Coach Bellman the truth and decided to fight at home tomorrow.

In the evening, he asked Gan Guohui to give him a massage and put on some safflower oil. Sleep on the left side of your body to prevent pressure on your right back.

In this way, when he got up the next day, Gan Guoyang felt that his back felt much better, and there should be no problem.

In the afternoon, the players of the basketball team all asked the teacher for leave, arrived at the stadium early, and began warm-up activities.

Gan Guoyang tried to practice shooting on the court, but the problem didn't seem to be big. Today's game gave him the feeling of playing in the NBA playoffs. After playing away and playing at home, if you win two out of three games, win this home and win the series!

In this way, he relied on this YY to relieve the discomfort in his back while carefully making movements.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the school ended, and a large number of students poured into the gymnasium to watch the game. The audience has become a green wheat field.

The Warriors have also arrived at the arena and are on the court to begin warm-up activities.

The level of basketball at Palo Alto High School is not very high, and it has not been able to compete in the second-tier state championships for many years. However, this year's situation seems to be different, because of Gan Guoyang's existence.

Moreover, Gan Guoyang also showed off on the rugby field yesterday, which naturally attracted more students to watch the game.

"Gan, it's the first time I've had so many people from our school come to see us play, and I'm a little nervous." Diepenbrock said as he looked at the crowd in the gym.

"Don't make a fuss, the game is about to start, it's useless for you to be nervous."

Both Gan and Diepenbrock were dropped into the starting lineup by Bellman, and both were standing on the court, shaking hands with the Warriors players.

The game is about to start, and after the last battle, the two sides are also acquaintances, and this game is bound to be more intense.

As the referee tosses the ball high in the air, the game begins.

Gan Guoyang, as the starting center, jumped high, flicked the ball with his hand, and put the ball in the hands of his own players, competing for the ball. The Vikings were the first to attack.

When scrambling for the ball, Gan Guoyang did not use his right hand, but used his left hand, and he was still afraid that too many movements would affect his back when he had problems.

But there's nothing wrong with his ass.

On the first offense, he followed the coach's instructions and went inside. The other players pulled away and gave Gan Guoyang space to play singles.

The Vikings have to use Gan Guoyang's strong point to open up the situation.

Gan Guoyang used his excellent positioning skills to easily occupy a good position near the three-second zone of the baseline, and Diepenbrock immediately hoisted the ball to him.

The Warriors were obviously prepared, knowing that the Vikings would definitely hit Gan Guoyang, so as soon as Gan Guoyang received the ball, No. 33 Antonio Davis immediately came to cover it.

Gan Guoyang did not hesitate to pass the ball, because Davis came from the upper line to wrap the bag, so the baseline side was empty.

After receiving the ball, he adjusted slightly, and immediately turned quickly in the direction of the baseline, and he became more and more proficient in the turnaround jumper technique taught to him by Bernard King! Shot, ball in, first goal of the game!

The goal was accompanied by cheers from the crowd, as well as ...... Discomfort coming from the back.

Gan Guoyang shook his arm, quickly ran back to his own half of the defense, and threw himself into the defense.

Compared to the previous game, the McCrowder Warriors still don't have many options in the offense. Because in the face of Gan Guoyang's ubiquitous expansion defense, the effect of both internal and external shooting is very average.

The internal protrusion will inevitably be delayed and interfered by Gan Guoyang, and the hit rate is not high; If you shoot outside, if you don't hit, the backcourt rebounds will be all collected by Gan Guoyang, and you can only rely on your feel to eat without a second rebound.

In the Vikings' offense, Gan Guoyang was reducing the number of his inside singles, and began to use the opponent's bag to carry out internal and internal passes.

Bellman thought it was Gan trying to mobilize the whole team to participate in the attack, although he felt that Gan Guoyang seemed to be a little too selfless.

Only Gan Guoyang himself knew that he did this because the discomfort in his back was getting stronger and stronger, and he had even begun to feel pain. And every shot exacerbates that pain.

In defense, he interferes with the opponent's shooting and rebounding mainly with his left hand, and tries to reduce the range of his right hand.

In the first half of 8 minutes, Gan Guoyang struggled to grab a frontcourt rebound, and scored the ball under the three-man package! At the same time, the opponent will be fouled and a penalty will be added. At this point, the score was 18-8, and the Vikings led by 10 points, and if they scored, it would be 11 points.

But Gan Guoyang didn't hit the penalty for this ball, and he also threw an air-ball (three non-sticks)! A dead ball is formed.

The Warriors immediately called a timeout and rearranged their tactics, and their offense really couldn't open the way.

And Bellman asked Gan Guoyang: "What's the matter, Gan, cast a three-non-stick?" He had already noticed that there seemed to be a problem with the power of Gan Guoyang's right arm.

"No problem, I was hit by the other party when I went to the basket just now, and my arm hurt a little." It turned out that when Gan Guoyang forced a layup in the face of a three-person defense just now, he was hit by a player on the opposing side of the right back.

At that time, Gan Guoyang felt as if he had been hit by an electric shock in his back, which made his muscles numb when he made free throws, and he couldn't exert his strength at all, so he threw an air-ball.

"Be careful, you're the backbone of the team's interior line."

"Okay, everyone's performance just now is good, we have to keep it up. But our offensive efficiency is still a little lower, and we have to be more resolute in our outside shooting! We have the advantage in this game, don't drag the rhythm anymore! And Gan, you have to be decisive in your attack, and you don't have to pass the ball all the time. Do you have a grudge against the ball? Don't let your opponent take the ball, and you don't want to take it yourself? ”

"I'll stress what we're going to do later, Viciss, and you're going to pay attention to ............."

Gan Guoyang didn't listen to Bellman's arrangement next, because he felt that his back was getting more and more painful, although this pain was bearable, it was extremely uncomfortable, just like the soles of his feet itching, he couldn't scratch it, he couldn't scratch it.

The timeout is over and back on the field again. Gan Guoyang decided to defend wholeheartedly, trying not to use his right hand, and on the offensive end, he grabbed more frontcourt rebounds, and the goal was handed over to his teammates.

The Warriors' small point guard possessed the ball just after half court when he suddenly accelerated, passed the slow Downbrock, and went straight to the interior from the right side.

It seems that the Warriors have no good way to do it, so they can only use continuous breakthroughs, wanting to kill the Vikings' interior line and make Gan Guoyang foul.

Gan Guoyang is so easy to kill, he did not stop in the three-second zone and wait for the rabbit, but stepped forward and followed closely with the small point guard.

The little point guard was guarded by Gan Guoyang so closely, and his speed immediately slowed down, and when he wanted to force a layup, he found that he had insufficient stamina, and just jumped, he was hugged down by Gan Guoyang with a slap with his left hand.

However, the ball was picked up by No. 33 Davis, who was inserted in the middle, and he jumped up immediately after receiving the ball, trying to put his hands in the basket.

Gan Guoyang didn't allow him to wreak havoc in his own basket, and after he landed, he jumped up again and reached out to cover it.

However, because he followed the small point guard in the previous defense, he was facing Davis on the right back side when he landed. If he had blocked with his left hand, he would have to turn around again, but then it would have been too late to seal the ball.

Gan Guoyang subconsciously stretched out his right hand and pressed it hard in the air on the ball that Davis was holding with both hands, pressing him down from the air. The ball was out of their hands, and the Vikings got the ball and launched a fast break.

The stadium was boiling again, and the wonderful performance of two consecutive blocks won a cheer for Gan Guoyang.

Immediately afterwards, the Vikings attacked quickly in the third line, three to two in the front court, three passes and two passes, and scored the ball easily, 20:8!

But at this time, there was no more cheering in the gymnasium, because everyone noticed that Gan Guoyang was standing alone under the hoop in the backcourt, his left hand was tightly on his back, and his right arm was hanging down at his side, and his sweaty face showed a look of pain.

Bellman saw that the situation was not right, and immediately called a timeout, rushed up to the court, hugged Gan Guoyang with his arm, and asked eagerly: "What's wrong with you, Gan?" ”

"Coach, I can't do it."
