Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Decisive Goal
With two minutes left, they are still 20 points behind.
Most players will think it's over.
However, Deng Hongfei still did not give up.
He turned on the self-forgetfulness mode, and all that was left in his eyes was the basket.
"Get pulled away."
He slowly dribbled across the halfcourt, the basketball moving freely under his crotch, and staring at Hairston with indifferent eyes.
Although the latter was almost stunned by Deng Hongfei's changeable methods, he still followed his rhythm changes and defended seriously.
"This time, I'm not you, I'll shoot directly."
Dying.
Deng Hongfei looked straight at Hairston's somewhat chaotic eyes and said lightly, and suddenly rose up on the ultra-long-distance dry land two steps away from the three-point line, and his long body floated and moved to raise his hand and throw the basketball in Hairston's eyes.
The crimson shadow rolled and whistled in the air.
With its long tail dragged like a golden angry dragon across the sky, the dragon roared and roared into the sea!
Swish!
With a pleasant crisp sound.
In the case of Deng Hongfei's complete relaxation and fearlessness, the basketball hollow plunged into the mesh!
Three-point shot from beyond distance.
"Why call a miracle a miracle?"
"Isn't this man-made?"
"There's always someone who wants to win, so why can't it be me? There are always people who are miracle workers, why can't it be me?! ”
The creed of life, which is deep in the bone marrow, once again turned into a Sanskrit sound that hits the soul and permeates my mind.
Have the will to win, and deal with all difficulties and obstacles, even if you have reached the end of the field.
We must also imprint the word victory in our hearts!
Many people on the scene captured this magical three-pointer.
As everyone knows, Deng Hongfei is playing this game with the regret of Crazy March and the regret of missing his beloved dream.
He was filled with a power that he had never felt before.
"Boom."
Duke's offense missed.
Lai Genyi got the rebound and continued to hand it over to Deng Hongfei to advance.
Just after halftime, the latter swept past Hairston with Zhang Tong's block and transported to a 45-degree angle to the three-point.
Kelly stepped up to make up for it, and Deng Hongfei suddenly jumped up.
Kelly reacted quickly and jumped up and down at the same time.
It's just that this time he made a mistake, Deng Hongfei was not ready to shoot, but saw Xia Dong's position after rising to a sufficient height.
The hands are like throwing a solid ball, giving the ball great power.
Xia Dong was well prepared, he caught the quick pass steadily, and with a light one-handed pick, he picked the ball into the basket.
Chase two more points.
Some of the audience at the scene closed their eyes and didn't dare to look.
The atmosphere is getting more and more solid......
"You can't get in, you can't go in."
On the bench at Shuangqing University, everyone was praying that Duke University would not make it.
Interestingly, the Jade Emperor seemed to have heard their call.
This time, Thornton's layup was interfered with by Xia Dong and rebounded, and Deng Hongfei, who rushed over fiercely, took it into his arms.
As soon as he received the ball, he threw it hard.
Zhang Tong and Feng Xiujie have already launched a fast attack on the opponent's half.
If they can score, the difference will be close to 15 points.
The people at Duke University are desperately chasing back.
Thornton was fast, even faster than Zhang Tongdu.
It's just that he finally caught up with the latter's position, but Zhang Tong threw the ball and transferred the ball to Feng Xiujie, who had just stood in the bottom corner.
Adjusted his breath and took aim.
His arm stiffened slightly against the overwhelming force of the audience.
"Boom."
Missed.
Feng Xiujie suddenly clapped his hands in annoyance.
It was this brief pause that Thornton had picked up the ball under the basket and rushed to the front court to find Seth Curry in the open space.
The latter ignored Deng Hongfei in the distance and rushed over desperately to try to interfere, and steadily shot a three-pointer.
"Huh."
Hollow into the basket.
The gap in the mentality of the shooter is vividly reflected at this moment.
Feng Xiujie, after all, is missing some basic skills, and some cold-bloodedness.
This missed three-point shot seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Although Deng Hongfei and Zhang Tong still did not give up, they successfully filled up the fouls of Plumlee and Kelly according to the previous plan, and had to go off the court together.
But the final whistle blew, and the score on the big screen was finally fixed at 108:90, losing by 18 points.
The obvious gap is like a cloud of mud.
Deng Hongfei lowered his head and walked off the field without saying a word.
Zhang Tong was also in a depressed mood.
They had already tried their best, but the other party was so strong that it was as difficult to shake as Mount Tai.
Yes, Deng Hongfei's final score was fixed at 52 points.
There are no statistics on rebounds and rebounds, but those who have watched the game know that these two data must be indistinguishable.
"It's great."
Combo smiled and held out his hand, he was happy with the result.
High-fived the dejected team members one by one, and he kept comforting, "It's okay, I'm doing well." ”
It's just that when Deng Hongfei and Zhang Tong arrived, these two people directly ignored his smiling face, swept straight past him, sat on the bench, grabbed a towel and covered his face, gasped for breath, and sat on his side.
No one could see their expressions.
But from the fact that they showed more desire to win than everyone on the field, the mood at this moment is definitely lower than everyone else.
Everyone at Duke high-fived each other.
Plumlee shook his head in a towel and said to his teammates: "Oh, I promise, this is the strongest opponent we have faced on this trip to China, and we almost didn't capsize in the gutter." ”
"The other party's number eight is very strong."
Seth Curry praised from the bottom of his heart, "Without him, this team would not be as good as the two we had before." ”
"Of course, Seth, you don't recognize who he is?" Plumlee's eyes widened, "Chris Deng, the super scorer who has just entered the University of Washington and has been sitting in the No. 2 position in the main team, the talented Chinese who shines in the national high school league." ”
Seth Curry thought for a moment, "No wonder it's so powerful, it seems to have won McDonald's Best in the United States." ”
"Gatorade took it too." Kelly smiled beside him, gulped his drink, and pointed to the side with his thumb, "Let's go, let's go over and say hello to old friends." ”
"Okay."
With that, they walked towards Shuangqing University together.
Ren Qiuming sat next to Deng Hongfei, patted the latter's back and kept comforting, "You are already very strong, and there is no way to do it." ”
Shu Xin and other people from the logistics team also rushed over and brought some post-game recovery supplies such as ice packs and sports drinks.
Feng Xiujie gasped, his mind was full of the three-point shot he had just missed, full of self-blame.
If we can seize that opportunity, Shuangqing University will definitely be more aggressive, and Duke University will inevitably be more flustered......
He shook his head, but at a glance he saw Shu Xin squatting in front of Deng Hongfei, his eyes were rippling, and he handed him a bottle of drink with a little distress, and comforted him softly, "Don't be sad, everyone has seen your performance......"
This situation made Feng Xiujie's heart ache even more.
Plumlee, Kelly and Seth Curry were among several other Duke players who came here.
The moment they appeared, a group of people from Shuangqing University stood up, looking at them with some vigilance and some strangeness.
