Chapter 167, a defeat
On March 7 of the Han calendar, Taoyuan High School was a guest to challenge Jinzhu University.
The Jinzhu High School basketball team is the only high school team in Jinzhu District, Mianzhu City, next door to Fengcheng City, which is not to say that there is only one high school here, but similar to the situation of Taoyuan High School in Taoyuan Town, only this team is qualified to participate.
But unlike Taoyuan Gao, Taoyuan Gao is short and tall, while Jinzhu Gao is a real Mianzhu strong team, as long as there is no accident, they are strong contenders for the top ten in the regional league of Qiqi County all year round - of course, the strong competition is a strong competition, whether it can compete is another matter, but at least in the history of the team, there is still a glorious moment to enter the top ten in Qiqi County, unlike Taoyuan Gao, which may not even be able to rush out of the wind city when it really fought before.
In the face of such a strong opponent, Wang Dao discussed with the assistant coaches, and the players were all recuperated and ready for the state, which can be said to be fully prepared, but the defeat he expected still came.
In fact, with the strength of the current Taoyuan team, it is not strong enough to win at any time, not to mention anything else, in the past games, at least three or four games are narrow wins, there are players who broke out, there are also luck, and then they have won a streak until now, which may be worthy of their performance, but it is not the true embodiment of their strength.
But what Wang Dao didn't expect was the way he lost this time, his tactics were actually not much of a problem, even in the away games, the desire to perform was very strong, and they did show their strength, but they still lost in the end, and it was not the kind of narrow defeat before, but a double-digit defeat.
One of the characteristics of Mianzhu Gao is that the offense is strong and the defense is weak, they are very much like the kind of fast fight whirlwind that fights and runs, and there is a high school star-level core point guard, named "Zhao Wei", which is also a little bit of an impression of the "Three Kingdoms" of Wang Dao, but his fame does not seem to be very big, but here, in the high-school basketball league, his strength is strong enough.
Zhao Wei's talent is to strengthen the organization's "heart and soul", this talent can convey his thoughts to the minds of designated teammates through unknown reasons in the lightning and fire, but it can only be conveyed to one person at a time, but it is already perverted enough, and outside the organization, his personal attack power is also good, and there are occasional outbreaks in shooting stability.
It's just the same as the team as a whole, or this is a certain characteristic of this core, his defense is not strong, and he is sometimes targeted as a defensive black hole, which makes Wang Dao have to think of the "Son of the Wind" Nash.
It is precisely because of the defense that this point guard and the Mianzhu Gao team are on a stronger path, otherwise with their overall strong shooting ability and the unity of the core point guard organization, they would not often be one of the seeded players in Mianzhu City but they will not be able to really go far in the regional game.
can be similar to the previous Qu Gao No. 1 Middle School, Mianzhu Gao also has the characteristics of convulsions, but Qu Gao No. 1 Middle School is a nerve knife, pumping up to torture the opponent to death, crazy and humiliating himself, and Mianzhu Gao maintains a certain stable offensive ability at the same time, there will be explosive output from time to time.
Although there are many examples of reversal and counterattack in basketball games, most of the time, especially when the difference in strength is not large, it will maintain the lead until the end of the game, which is also a true portrayal of this game.
Taoyuan Gao was directly beaten by Mianzhu Gao at the beginning, and the lead was close to double digits, even if Wang Dao had decisively called a timeout in the opening two minutes, but after going up again, Taoyuan Gao, who had calmed down, could not stop the opponent, even under the leadership of Sun Qian and Zhang Fei, they could also achieve good offensive efficiency, but they couldn't resist the opponent's attack.
And Taoyuan Gao currently has a very uncertain place, that is, without staggering the playing time of Sun Qian and Zhang Fei, there is no organizational point among the remaining players, which is a lack of player talent reserves, and it is also a helpless thing, otherwise Taoyuan Gao's substitute rotation does not say how good they are, but at least they have their own skills, why do they always lose points when they play? Because they can't hold or attack, that's the biggest problem.
Of course, if you lose the game, you will lose the game, and the king will not be guilty of resigning, and know that even with today's defeat, their win rate will still ensure that they can make it to the final race for the top 10 in the county - provided that the league ends today.
Disappointment is inevitable, and compared to him, the players themselves are even more disappointed, and even a little dazed, because after thinking about it carefully, they will feel that they don't seem to play so badly, but why did they lose?
In this case, of course, it is time for the coach Wang Dao to step up.
On the bus on the return trip, after seeing that the players were all in place, Wang Dao asked the driver not to drive first, clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and only after he became the focus of attention did he smile and say: "Look, I smiled?" You may wonder why I'm laughing, didn't we just lose, and do I still have a sense of responsibility and collective honor as a coach to laugh in this situation? ”
These words, coupled with his indignant expression, made many players who were already depressed laugh, Sun Qian and Zhang Fei glanced at each other, but they both vaguely guessed Wang Dao's true thoughts.
Wang Dao didn't care what they thought, and continued according to his own draft: "That's right, we lost, and it was a defeat, which may seem inexplicable to everyone. But losing is losing, there is no reason, there is no excuse, we can say that today we tried our best, the opponent played extraordinarily, we can also say that they have home advantage, but I am very glad that there is no expression on everyone's face that I don't want to see, that is, joy or calm, even you look very unwilling, which makes me even happier.
"Because of unwillingness, people will have the motivation to continue to move forward, you can continue to improve, failure cannot defeat us, only make us stronger!
"Today's opponent did play better, and it did play a little extraordinarily, but in the final analysis, we are not strong enough, if we are strong enough, we can say that he is strong and he is ......strong" After swallowing back the "Lao Tzu Nick Yang" that almost spit out, Wang Dao paused for a while before saying: "But the final victory belongs only to us." ”
