Hougist grabbed the rebound and took the trouble to go down with Joseph, Thompson and Lichiad stared at the two of them separately, secretly vowing to defend this time, but Hougist skillfully used a step-back stop at the wing three-point line, directly shook Thompson to the ground, and then hit a three-pointer steadily.

At 81:71, the difference had reached 10 points, Coach Simmons had to ask for a timeout, everyone walked back to the bench, James II was very excited on the sidelines, and took the initiative to high-five every Spartan player passing by.

"It's so obscene! It's just a high school game, and it's such a scoundrel tactic as slashing people! This Dick coach is really going back more and more, and he has to be shameless! Coach Simmons angrily picked up the tactical board and smashed the chair hard. As everyone knows, this tactic was completely directed by Hoggist from coming up, formulating, arranging, and then implementing.

"Coach, don't just scold the streets! Think about how to solve it? Lisiad hurriedly grabbed the coach.

Coach Simmons finally calmed down and looked up at the timer, which was frozen at 2:05. He became irritable again, "Shameless! Bastard! I've been pitted again! ”

Lichiad could only persuade Coach Simmons again, "Coach calm down! Why are you in a hurry when you talk about it? ”

"It's five seconds away! In 5 seconds and 2 minutes, they can't foul a non-player! I'm just 5 seconds away from wasting another timeout! Coach Simmons said in frustration.

"Is it a substitution or another 5 seconds?" Thompson asked.

Coach Simmons pondered for a long time, but still decided to make a substitution, "Richard, you come down to rest first, David, you go up!" After 2 minutes, there is a foul and then a substitution, and if they don't make a substitution in these 5 seconds, it will be enough for them to cut again! ”

But the Spartans have changed their thinking, Hougist is more alert than Coach Simmons, he has already noticed that there are 2 minutes 05 seconds left in the third quarter, returned to the bench, drank two sips of Gatorade, and began to overstep his responsibilities again, "There are 2 minutes left, you can't foul no players, Devin, Larry, you two rest first, save enough energy for the fourth quarter, Harris Justin you two up, the last two minutes we remove the inside height They will definitely fight back wildly, if they go to Finch, everyone pay attention to shrinking the defense, Don't let Finch get a chance under the basket; If they insist on using Parker, they must guard against the outside and try not to give them a chance to shoot! ”

Coach Dick didn't say much, just looked at these players with satisfaction, only one season has grown to this height under the leadership of Hoggist, he didn't expect it before the start of school, he thought that Hoggist relied on his extraordinary personal ability, would not consider his teammates at all, and would definitely lead the team to win by himself. But now it seems that he still underestimates Haugist, he not only improves fast, but also drives his teammates to improve, Joseph has played with him since he was a child, needless to say, Justin, Harris, Randolph are more mature and reasonable than at the beginning of the season, even the team's 10,000-year substitute, the rookie king Williams brothers are now playing well, especially the elder brother Devin. Williams, who trained with Haugist for a few days, became the winner of the final. Hoggist's talent is terrifying!

At the end of the timeout, the two sides changed lineups and returned to the court, the Tornado team attacked, the Spartans lost the height advantage of the inside, Finch began to take the position on the inside, Randolph desperately pushed him out, Lisiad saw the opportunity to pass the ball to the ground, Joseph was in a hurry to destroy the ball.

The referee blew the whistle for a kick violation, and the Tornado re-served the ball outside the bounds. This time Randolph was down, Alain. Stone hoisted the ball directly to Finch from outside bounds, who easily put it to score.

The Spartans dribbled over the half, Haugist was still on the flank to block and dismantle, Randolph came up to cover, Haugist moved to the top of the arc with the cover, Thompson pounced around the screen, Haugist easily hit the ball to the ground and distributed it to Randolph down, Randolph threw and hit the board in the three-second zone.

In the last two minutes, the Spartans lost rebounds again, and the difference was reduced to 5 points at the end of the third quarter, and the score is now 85:80 for the Spartans and the Tornadoes.

"How's your recovery?" Hougist asked Devon, who was sitting on the bench.

"Fortunately, there should be no problem playing half a quarter, and if I can still cut Parker, I guess I can last longer!" Devin nodded.

"Now we are faced with a choice, either let Devin stay and play the second half of the quarter, so that it can end smoothly, but maybe the first half of the quarter will not be able to hold the inside line and be caught up by the opponent or even overtake the score, if they let them get up, we will not be able to play in the second half;" Hogist took a sip of his drink and moistened his throat and continued: "Or let Devin play first in the fourth quarter, play as hard as he can, play wherever he wants, first pull the score away as much as possible, and the rest of the time will be left to fate." ”

Coach Dick thought of another possibility, but he didn't know the specific details of Hougist's special training for Devon, so he didn't say anything to warn him, but just calmly watched Hoggist command the battle from the sidelines.

Devin thought about it and decided to play first: "I'd better go first, if I cut Parker, I will insist on finishing the game, if Parker doesn't play, I will try to blow them up inside and stretch the difference to more than 15 points!" ”

"Good! To be my teammate is to have such courage and confidence! Haugist agreed with Devon.

And over there, Coach Simmons also sat on the chair and worried, go to Richard, if you want to be cut, you can't stand it if you don't go to Richard's inside line, what should I do?

Lichiad saw Coach Simmons sitting in the coach's bench brushing his thinning hair back and forth, and he couldn't wait to clean up the few remaining hairs of his fruit, so he went up and offered advice, "Coach, are you worried about how to crack the opponent's Parker slashing tactic?" ”

"Knowingly ask!" Coach Simmons replied angrily.

"I have a solution, I don't know if I should talk about it?" Lisiades asked cautiously.

"If you have something to say, talk about it, and if you have a fart, let it go!" Coach Simmons was frequently interrupted from his train of thought and seemed impatient.

"We can treat others the way they do! They cut Richard, we can cut their high school forward Williams! Lichiad said.

"That's right!" Coach Simmons slapped his thigh, and Lichiade woke up the dreamer with a word, "The big center on the other side made a few free throws today, and the shooting rate is not very high, it is definitely worth a cut!" ”

Coach Simmons made up his mind and began to lay out his tactics, and he replaced him with Richard again. Parker plays center and lets another shooting guard, Nick. Larkin came on to take charge of the foul.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the lineup sent by the Tornado team made Haugist stunned, why did he change a new bench to defend me, and he didn't look very strong, what was this for? Tempting me to attack so that the whole team can give up playing inside? But it's not right, they are on Parker, and we don't have an advantage on the inside, it's weird.

Before Hougist could think about it, the Tornado had already begun to attack, and Larry hurried up to hug Parker.

Cut at the beginning? Is there still a way to watch this game? The audience is in a hurry, this tactic of unlimited foul free throws is going to play a quarter, and people are not crazy!

In this way, the Tornadoes' first offense was interfered with by several consecutive fouls by the Spartans, and soon the number of fouls arrived, Parker continued to stand on the free throw line, still missing two free throws, but Hougist just picked up the rebound, but Devin was hugged by Larkin.

"This ...... Wouldn't it, too, tornadoes begin to chop people? The audience booed.

"Uh......" The Tornado players are helpless, they are also slashing, why do they have to be booed by the audience?

Soon the Tornadoes' fouls were full, this time it was Devin's turn to stand on the free throw line, and Hougist had also guided Devin's free throws, after all, interior players were still easy to get fouls under the basket, but unfortunately the shooting touch was not something that could be cultivated in two or three days, and Devin's free throw shooting rate was always stuck at sixty percent and could not be further improved.

Hoggist then understood why the Tornado team would inexplicably replace a substitute at the critical moment of chasing points, it turned out that he was going to catch the medicine according to the prescription, he really ignored this, Devin's free throws are also a weakness, just now during the break Coach Dick wanted to stop talking, he must have thought of this, it seems that I am still inexperienced! Haugist shook his head self-deprecatingly.

However, he ignored that he was only a freshman in high school, which was insignificant compared to Coach Dick, who had rich coaching experience, and it was already remarkable to be able to tactically suppress Coach Simmons for three quarters, and then this last quarter would depend on the individual ability of the star!

Devin stepped to the free-throw line and hit the first free throw safely...... The basket came out, and the audience let out a burst of regret.

Everyone came up to high-five Devon, and Hougist deliberately pinched Devon's shoulder to make him relax.

Devin adjusted his state, patted the ball, calmed down, took a deep breath, threw the ball, and hollowed it into the net.

Yeah！ Hoggist was secretly refreshed and smiled at Coach Simmons, as if to say, "Come on, hurt each other!" ”

The Tornado sent the ball to Larry to foul again, Parker made a free throw, and Larry fouled and walked off.

"James, you're on! Remember, you have only one mission, and that's to foul Parker! Coach Dick patted James on the shoulder, who was sitting next to him.

"Understood!" James got up and went on the field.

Parker still stubbornly missed two free throws, Devin got the rebound, and was fouled again. After half a quarter, Devin and Parker didn't have any physical exertion at all, but five of the two teams' benches had already left the game. Devin made six free throws, while Parker only made two free throws, and the margin stretched to 10 points again, giving the Spartans a 92-82 lead.

The spectators couldn't stand the game anymore, the boos in the arena were about to tear down the roof, and although all the fans were from the Cimaren Memorial High School, the boring free-throw shootout had forced them to deny their parents. LeBron. James has already begun to bow his head and seriously play with his phone, while James II and Blake. James was already drowsy in the midst of the earth-shattering noise.

Hougist called a timeout after third substitute Blanton also fouled and left the game.

"Now with a 10-point lead and five minutes to go, the crowd is already in a hurry, I think they should enter the court and beat people if they get to the last two minutes!" Joseph said.

"Don't cut people, change the regular lineup, I'll do the rest of the time!" Hoggist said resolutely.

"You!" The crowd looked at Hogist in amazement.

"I've always tried to get the whole team going, playing team basketball, so that everybody can improve, and I'm even thinking that you're going to be better and more likely to get college ......scholarships in the future," Hougist said.

"Yes, we all feel it, you have helped us a lot, and now even the whole neighborhood of basketball-loving elementary school students will mention our name, which we would not have dared to imagine half a year ago. Although you are the lowest grade, you are definitely our most respected captain, and it is definitely the greatest honor of our lives to be a teammate with you! Randolph said sincerely.

Everyone was moved, and Hoggist nodded gratefully and continued, "Thank you for your affirmation!" I've always reminded myself to forget about myself in order to be able to lead the team better, and although it sounds awkward, I still deliberately ask myself to do it. ”

"Boss, just say what you mean! Don't go around in circles with us! Joseph urges anxiously, after all, the timeout is limited.

"I'll say something shameless, my ability is too much stronger than you, I'm always afraid that I'm playing too high and leaving you aside will make you feel unfair, so I always force myself to forget my ability, lower myself to the same level as you, and play happily with you, although I can't play my best, but I'm still very happy. Now that this time has come, I want to repay you with my own ability and lead you to win this championship! Haugist spoke his mind.
