Chapter 127: The decisive battle is imminent

The final score against the league Dr. Olga Mohan High School was fixed at 109:48, and it was another big win, and Chino Gang High School made it through to the semifinals.

Roy played 32 minutes and finished with 41 points, 14 rebounds, 13 assists, six interceptions and five blocks.

It wasn't Roy's best performance, but it was enough to show his all-round.

Scouts who are familiar with Roy and those who are not, have found the answers they want, but they will have to stay in Chinogang for at least a few more days, with the semi-finals in two days and the final in four days being the last chance for these scouts to test their answers.

Chino High School here successfully entered the semi-finals, and Justin Sina High School also wreaked havoc on the opponent, according to this trend, the rhythm of the finals between Chino High School and Justin Sina High School.

Seeing that the final was in sight, Josh Jackson couldn't help but take the lead in setting off the cannon.

He touted himself and Lonzo Ball as the strongest duo in the country, and they now feel like Michael Dan and Scott Pippen in the past, and winning the championship was a natural fit.

Immediately afterwards, when Lonzo Ball was interviewed by the media, he also echoed Josh Jackson's boast, and he even lowered his profile and said that he was willing to become the team's "second leader" Pippen for the championship.

This boasting caused an uproar in the fan circle.

Who are Jordan and Pippen?

They were the core duo that created the Bulls' six crowns, Jordan was good at scoring, Pippen was proficient at everything, and they also had one thing in common, defense.

In that era when the duo was rampant, Jordan and Pippen were synonymous with champions, and their losers included Tim Hardaway and Alonzo Mourning, Carl Malone and John Stockton, Gary Payton and Sean Kemp, etc., and the old adage "two monks carry water to drink" still makes sense.

The duo is not out of focus, Jiao is not away from Meng, with tacit understanding and unified tactics, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the strongest duo in history.

Josh Jackson's words, while exaggerated, do say how good the chemistry he and Lonzo Ball have been, and if it weren't for the unimaginable 35-game win at Chino Gang High School, Justin Sina High School with 34 wins and 1 loss could be called the strongest team in California.

Two days later, in the semifinals, Chino High School defeated Diamond Barr High School 100-68, while Justin Sina High School also beat Limbrook High School 113-74.

The final was the ultimate showdown that everyone was looking forward to.

The media has been waiting for this day for a long time, and in just one day, all kinds of hype are overwhelming, which is undoubtedly an unexpected compliment for California, which does not have a high level of youth basketball.

Even several MVP-caliber players from other states are paying attention to the California finals.

For example, Markelle Fultz, who is the same name as Lonzo Ball, led by Di Martha Catholic High School, won the Maryland Championship a day earlier, so he can now watch Lonzo Ball's good performances without any worries. He said that Lonzo Ball would definitely not lose to the little-known Chinese kid, and if he did, he would definitely be embarrassed to participate in the McDonald's All-Star Game again.

Jayson Tatum also found an opportunity to taunt Lonzo Ball, who remembered Lonzo's dismissive comments about him last year. Now it's his turn to fight back, his Chaminard Academy Preparatory School is only one step away from winning this year's Missouri Championship, and he asserts that Lonzo Ball will definitely win the championship, otherwise how can he be worthy of his title as the No. 1 high school student in the United States, besides, Lonzo can't lose to his brother and stand-in, right?

Another guy who raises the bar.

Lonzo Power looked at the various retweets on Twitter and couldn't help but curse.

The ability of this group of subordinates to fall into the well is not bad at all, and if you look at the predictions of the mainstream media, it is basically four or six, and sixty percent of the media are actually optimistic that Roy will lead Chinogang High School to defend the title.

I, this group of media reporters who have seen strange things, praised me as the second Jason Kidd last year, the cornerstone of the NBA championship, and this year I began to turn my face and not recognize people.

Lonzo Power was certainly not convinced, having arrived at the stadium half an hour early today, not only to prepare for the game, but also to share a lot of important information with the manager and all his team-mates.

……

The same message that Lonzo Bauer wants to share is what Liangelo Bauer is saying.

"Lonzo knows everything about our team, he's been on this team for three whole years, he knows the rhythm of Price's [Richards'] threes, he knows that Chaz (Smith) won't shoot, he even knows the secret of Grant's [Chuman's] shoe size and Sean [Hopkins's] birthmark on his left hip."

Liangelo Ball was talking to Roy about tomorrow's final, and he was going to tell Roy that if he wanted to win, he had to break the rules.

"You also know Steve's coaching level, almost all of the tactics and codes at Chinogang High School are designed by Lonzo, and some things are ingrained and can become weaknesses that opponents can exploit when they get on the field."

"Liangelo, you tell me this, do you have a way to win?" Roy looked at Liangelo expectantly, but the answer he was waiting for made him laugh.

"No, I'm not a master tactician, I'm far worse than you and Lonzo, I'm telling you this just to remind you not to take it lightly."

Lower one's guard? Roy won't, even if Liangelo doesn't remind himself, he has already prepared for a lot of time for this final that will come sooner or later.

High school competitions, in fact, are a competition of core players in the final analysis, and a single superstar can almost change the fate of a team, such as Lonzo Ball at Chino High School.

Compared with the NCAA training system, tactical rigor, strong players, and professional coaching, the high school game is completely like a bullring for children, which is why Roy has achieved such ungodly statistics but is still not recognized by all insiders.

It's not a matter of swiping out the data in high school, it's a mule or a horse, and I don't know until the NCAA and the NBA know whether it's true or not.

Therefore, this final between Chino Gang High School and Justin Sina High School is actually a two-on-two showdown between Roy, Liangelo Ball, Lonzo Ball, and Josh Jackson.

With what Lonzo knows about his brother, surely he has a way to limit Liangelo's scoring, and does his own side have a way to keep Lonzo Ball and Josh Jackson at the same time as two super-athletic guards?

Suspend.

To win, you have to score more points than your opponent, or have some unique tactic.

"Ding-dong." Just thinking about it, the system message came.

Instant Tasks:

Fateful Duel: In tomorrow's game, the scores, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks will all surpass Lonzo Ball's, mission difficulty: ★★★★★, mission success reward: all abilities increased by 1 point, mission failure penalty: all mental abilities reduced by 5 points.
