Chapter 11: The Impossible Response
There are many choices in a person's life, and different choices create different lives; There is no right or wrong choice, but there are good and bad things in life.
Chu Ziyang was practicing on the basketball court in the sports park, basketball was a very important thing for him, a gift from God whom he regarded as a treasure, and he had made it easy for them to part ways since his "friends" slandered his beloved basketball.
Chu Ziyang didn't think about returning to the basketball team, but every time he walked to the door, his self-esteem dragged his legs, making him unable to step into the door he still left. He has watched Slam Dunk, and he was once moved by Mitsui Shou's sentence "Coach, I want to play basketball", but some things are different from anime in reality.
He saw the true colors of those "friends", who were just using his basketball skills to fake the basketball team. Every time I ask them to play in private, they are always absent, but when I ask them to sing and skewer, they are always there quickly. After he quit the basketball team, he rarely contacted them, just quietly came to the court to play at night when no one was around.
"Yo, Ziyang?" A very thick boy walked over from behind, Ziyang looked back, but found that he had no impression of this person at all.
"You are?" Chu Ziyang asked, and at the same time threw out the one in his hand.
"Huh-" The ball fell hollow into the net, bounced on the ground a few times, the boy picked up the ball from the ground, hugged it, and said: "You don't know who I am, I knew you when I was watching my brother's game, then you passed the entire basketball team in one fell swoop, and violently deducted my brother, I don't know if you remember, Akiba High School No. 17, Zhou Zhao." ”
"Ah...... I don't remember. Chu Ziyang said casually, it's not that he looks down on the young man's brother, it's just that when he goes on the court, he only has the ball and the ball frame in his eyes, not to mention his brother, he hasn't even looked at his teammates a few times, even when he is targeted.
"Hey, what, I thought you remembered. It's okay, my brother has graduated, and now I'm the seventeenth of Akiba, a freshman in high school, Zhou Zhou. Both words are Zhou of the Zhou Dynasty. The boy named Zhou Zhou passed the ball back, half-squatted down and leaned forward, "Do you want to play two balls?" ”
"Eleven, three points count as two." Chu Ziyang passed the ball back, washed the ball, and kicked off.
"Smack, smack......"
The ball rose and fell on the ground regularly, Chu Ziyang pressed down his body, and the lazy momentum just now disappeared in an instant, and the whole person revealed a terrifying aura. Zhou Zhou suddenly regretted why he had nothing to do to challenge a tiger in the mountains, but thinking so in his heart, his body was very excited. The muscles of the whole body are active and gradually tense.
Chu Ziyang came, he took the ball forward, just one step away, he was already close to Zhou Zhou, Zhou Zhou subconsciously wanted to retreat, wanting to have enough vision to see Ziyang's next move, but it was too late. Chu Ziyang dribbled behind his back, the ball came from the left to the right, and seeing that he was about to break through, Zhou Zhou's body reacted instinctively, and the center of gravity cut to the right. Turn around, cut directly to the basket, throw your hand up, and add a little force from your fingertips to make the ball spin, and the ball grabs the board at a high position, and falls into the net without any mistakes.
Zhou Zhou didn't have time to make up for the past, so he could only watch Chu Ziyang score. There was even more panic in my heart. It's so fast! His disguised performance is so fast that there is no way to defend it alone, and his defense is a beat slower than the offense, and if the speed is not as good as the attacker, then he can't defend it at all. Fortunately, Zhou Zhou understands that there are teammates who can make up for the defense during the real game, otherwise he is afraid that he will be defeated by the opponent.
"Good shot, 1-0." Zhou Zhou picked up the ball and started the second ball.
Chu Ziyang smiled slightly, not that he was laughing at anything, but because he instinctively felt happy from the basketball, he accelerated the dribble and came to Zhou Zhou, Zhou Zhou was already on guard, and immediately retreated, who knew that Chu Ziyang dribbled the ball back with an outside crotch and pulled back the ball and the center of gravity, and the two were several positions apart at once, Chu Ziyang stabilized the ball, shot out without hurry, and the ball knocked into the net on the back edge of the frame.
2 to 0.
Chu Ziyang made a simple crossover, then pulled back to the other side, and threw a backward jumper, and the ball easily went into the net.
Chu Ziyang scored three points directly, and the ball went into the net.
Chu Ziyang crossed the dribble, broke through on the right side, pulled the rod to the other side, and scored on the board.
……
"Uhhh
It was another three-point shot, Zhou Zhou was already breathing there with his shoulders in a huff, he waved his hand at Chu Ziyang, and said breathlessly: "I can't do it, it's already the third, I haven't even attacked once." ”
Three games, all 11-0, originally Zhou Zhou thought that he could also perform, who knew that Chu Ziyang would not lose points at all when he was serious, it would be a little strange if he didn't score more than 30 points in a real game at this level. However, in the back, Chu Ziyang basically broke through to score, otherwise he didn't believe that someone could feel hot enough to score 100% goals.
"Can you shoot 100 percent from the field when no one is around?" Chu Ziyang held the ball between his legs, picked up the towel hanging from his waist and wiped his sweat, "If you can't, then you, as a freshman of this year, are not brilliant enough." ”
Why, because our school has a terrifying freshman who shoots 41% from three-point range without the ball. Chu Ziyang remembered the face that would always smile in the gymnasium, and would not get angry if he didn't let him play, but cheered for the team, and suddenly began to think about what kind of scenery it would be if he was with this guy, but all this seems impossible at present.
"You mean...... Su Ling? Zhou Zhou seemed to think of something, and said with a somewhat embarrassed face.
"Oh? Do you know him? Chu Ziyang became interested, and his impression of Su Ling was only that he brushed three points during training.
"He is the leading scorer in our district junior high school, averaging 28.5 points, 12 assists and 2.2 steals per game, averaging 4 three-point points per game, and shooting 74 percent from three-point range. At the time, I was thinking about which of the four famous schools he would go to, but I didn't expect to go to a mediocre basketball district. Zhou Zhou actually had some admiration on his face. Chu Ziyang was also a little surprised, he never thought that a boy with such strength would be in his school, and he had never shown off his glorious past for appearance.
"He's that strong?" Chu Ziyang asked again, and his interest in Su Ling became even stronger.
"Strong, can it be strong, when he plays, the girls in our school are cheering him on. However, the coach said that his physical fitness is not high, and if he does not strengthen it, he will not be able to adapt to the level of high school. Zhou Zhou remembered what the coach said when he looked at the scene where Su Ling was knocked away after many breakthroughs.
"Indeed, his body is too thin." Chu Ziyang also agreed with what he said, although Su Ling was more than one meter and eight, his arms and legs were as thin as firewood, and every time he wore a training vest, he felt like his chest was close to his back.
"Thank you today, it's been a long time since I've played so comfortably." Chu Ziyang put the towel on his shoulder, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Ziyang...... Senpai, I'd love to meet you in the ring, I'll get stronger at that time, and then I'm going to beat you! Zhou Zhou said respectfully, and the hand on his knee gradually became stronger.
Chu Ziyang paused, didn't look back, and finally stopped staying after a while, waved his hand to the back, signaled goodbye, and then walked straight out, as calm as ever.
Zhou Zhou couldn't see it, Chu Ziyang's heart that loved basketball had a trace of sparks because of his words.
"And then I'm going to beat you!"
He really wanted to say to him, come on! I'm waiting for you.
But he couldn't, he wasn't part of the basketball team anymore.
I'm sorry......
