Chapter 146: Get plenty of rest

Although Hougist can ensure that the shooting rate of the strong attack is still very high, it cannot guarantee that the physical consumption of the strong attack is still very low, so after the third quarter, a physical monster like Haugist actually felt a little tired.

Because Downs and Okafor took turns to play, they were still relatively physical, and at the beginning of the fourth quarter, they actually appeared on the court at the same time.

"This ...... Don't you play? The puppet coach of the Western High School Stars asked as he stood beside Hougist.

"It's okay, don't they have 15 points to chase? Believe in the abilities of the other players! Iman, you can, right? Haugist asked Moodier, who was standing on the sidelines.

Moodier nodded and said confidently, "No problem!" It is guaranteed to be delayed for half a section before it is tied! ”

"Let me see what you've just learned." Hoggist also smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, I'll give you 20 points to lose in the first quarter, and I'll play after falling behind by more than 5 points or holding on for more than 6 minutes, I'll drink Gatorade for a while!" ”

"Great God, don't rest in the cold!" Oubre reminded.

"Impossible! I'm a microwave player! Hougist said confidently.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the East attacked first, at this time Russell was also resting off the court, and the organization on the court was Whitehead, in order to help the twin towers save physical strength on the court, Whitehead and Downs played a blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation, Whitehead easily used the cover to kill the inside, but was chased by Moodier and sent out of the block, and in the fast attack counterattack, Moodier also tried to fake a pass to attract the defense, but he almost flashed in the air. Fortunately, there was no mistake in this ball, but the opportunity for a fast break was also buried.

Moodier struggled to pass the ball to Oubre in the air, and when he landed, Oubre gave the ball back to Moodier to regroup at the top of the arc. Positional warfare is not what the current lineup in the West is good at, but Moodier watched Haugist half a quarter of the game off the court, and although he couldn't imitate the physical things, he at least understood one thing, that is, to take advantage of the situation and use the pass to drive his teammates to run.

Moodier saw Haugist pass the ball out and his teammates move a step or two to receive the ball, which was mostly a great opportunity, but Moodier followed Haugist's pass but missed by a fraction of a second, and his pass to Oubre was thrown directly into the arms of the defender.

Moodier slammed his fist into the air in frustration and turned back to defend. This time Whitehead also learned to be smart, and the fast break went straight to the basket, and after attracting the defense, he distributed the ball to Towns behind him. Downs was no one to do at this time, and he easily succeeded in dunking.

"Hey! What's going on with your passing? Oubre ran over and asked Moodier a little reproachful.

"That's how Hoggist passes, I thought I could do it!" Moodier said reproachfully.

"A good playmaker, when you pass the ball, you have to have not only teammates in your eyes, but also opponents, and the movement of 10 people on the field must have a prediction in your mind. In this way, the exact amount of advance can be transmitted! Feel it with your heart! Haugist whispered to Moodier from the sidelines.

“10…… The running position of 10 people has to be predicted? Where did you use your brain? Moodier exclaimed.

"Remember their position at a glance and observe the changes in their joints and muscles. Or you can judge the opponent's defensive position change based on your teammate's movement! ”

"It's still hard! You can't do it without excellent eyesight and memory! Moodier shook his head at Haugist's method.

"You can't come to the materialistic method, then only the idealistic method is left, if you have a full tacit understanding with your teammates, you can know each other's thoughts with a single eye contact."

"It's a little more reliable, but we don't have any tacit understanding, right?"

"Then you better continue to be blinded!" Haugist looked at Moodier speechlessly, "But Mong is not X**D, you also have to get a rough idea of whether your teammates can run to the position you want to pass." ”

Moodier dribbled past half-court, taking in what Haugist was saying, scanning the crowd in front of him over and over again, trying to feel the trend of the others. He and Siakam made a pick-and-roll cover on the flank, and was about to break through to the inside, but the afterglow saw Oubre move to the top of the arc from the weak bottom corner of the inside without the ball, and Moody was blessed to the heart, and with a flick of his wrist, he hit the ball directly from the covering Siakam's crotch to the top of the arc.

Oubre was just pitted by Moodier's pass, this time I didn't expect Moodier to find himself, but I didn't expect joy to fall from the sky, the ball suddenly appeared in front of him, Oubre took the ball and threw it directly, but unfortunately this excellent empty three-point opportunity Oubre did not grasp it, and the ball bounced out of the basket. It's a beautiful pass, and it would be even more perfect if it could be scored! Even the spectators on the sidelines let out a cry of regret.

Due to the serious lack of height in the interior of the Western Army, the basket has become the hardest hit area of the flood of Downs and Okafor, and the rebound easily fell into the hands of Okafor, Okafor's pass found Whitehead, and Whitehead still repeated the old trick, first breaking through to attract defensive firepower, and then distributing the ball to Downs behind him domineering dunk.

The East has chased 4 points in a row, and the point difference is close to single digits, but Haugist is sitting firmly on the Diaoyu Tai off the court, leaning on the back of the chair and crossing Erlang's legs, humming a little song and drinking a drink, extremely comfortable, Moodier's pass just now is quite spiritual, but Oubre's shooting is a little unlucky, it seems that Moodier still really understands something. Hougist also hopes that he can learn more and be better established in the CBA in the future.

Moodier's confidence was a little stronger after the experience of the last successful pass, and he dribbled to the front court and continued to watch the crowd carefully, this time moving to the wing to find the shooting guard from Minneapolis Robbinsdale Cooper High School. Vaughn was on the side of the corner and could immediately run out of an open spot.

The opportunity is good, but what if you move from the 45-degree three-point line on the strong side to the bottom corner of the weak side, there are too many obstacles along the way, and the ball is easy to be stealed? The opportunity was fleeting, and Moodier had no time to hesitate, bursting inside, pounding the basket like Whitehead, and drawing the attention of Towns and Okafor before passing the ball along the baseline to Vaughn in the weak corner. Vaughn catches the ball and shoots a three-point jumper, but his luck is just as bad and he still misses the basket.

The Western Army seemed to have broken their three-point hand from the second half of the third quarter, except for a few three-pointers who were forced to fire fires, and the other people's open three-point shots basically contributed to the Great Steel. In the fourth quarter, it seemed that the West Army's hand was still cold, but the East Army's attack on the interior line never stopped, and due to the weak interior line of the Western Army, Downs and Okafor began to take turns sitting under the bank.

Due to their own offense, the substitute outside players of the Western High School Stars had to begin to shrink Okafor and Towns on the inside, but this help defense, the outside gave the opponent another opportunity, the good news is that Booker and Russell, who shot accurately, were resting off the court at this time, and the opponent's three-point shooting percentage was not much better than that of the West Army; But the bad news is that the opponent can't shoot, and can still rely on Towns and Okafor to grab the frontcourt rebound to launch a second offense, and with seven and a half minutes left, the East team relied on Okafor's one-handed point grab to tie the score.

That's when the Western High School Stars were forced to call a timeout to rearrange their play. The East took the opportunity to bring on Russell and Booker for the final showdown, while the West only brought on McCaw, Johnson, Turner and Poeltl, and Hoogist only warmed up on the sidelines and had no intention of playing immediately.

"Aren't you playing?" Vaughan, who was replaced by McCaw, asked Haugist.

"Don't worry, Moodier still has one and a half minutes to go and five points to lose, we have to give him full trust and room to grow!" Hougist said calmly.

"You seem to be extra 'favor' to Moodier?" Oubre asked, "Anyway, I'm half a fellow countryman with you, why don't you take care of me?" ”

"After all, Moodier is the one who is going to play in China! I haven't been to China since I've grown up! I just hope that he can get better and play a bigger role in the Chinese league. It's easy for me to take care of it, just join UNLV in college, it's a shortcut for you to play with future Hall of Famer players! Imagine a future where you can show off to your friends, family or future generations – I'm the one who passed the ball to that legendary Jogist! Or – I scored 83 points in the NCAA finals with the legendary Hogist and won the championship! What a face! Hoggist said for them.

"Hall of Fame players? Are you kidding? I've never heard of anyone graduating from high school who would dare to say that they are future Hall of Famer players. ”

"That's because there's never been a high school graduate better than me."

"Including LeBron?" Oubre asked.

"Well, you can feel it yourself later!" Hoggist sold off at this time.

The lineup on the court of the Western High School Stars is already the strongest point in all positions except for Moodier, and Hoggist stabilized the point difference with this lineup in the third quarter. But it was this lineup that frequently hit the iron in the second half of the third quarter, forcing Hoggist to personally carry the game. Now that Moodier is coming with this lineup, I don't know what the effect will be?

The results are almost obvious, and the lineup of the Eastern High School Stars can be said to be an upgraded version of the Western lineup, with a combination of inside and outside multi-point flowering, and it is easy to lead by 6 points in a minute and a half. That's when Haugist called a timeout and replaced Moodier to prepare for his own play.

"When are you going to get to the iron? Cheer up, get ready to win the game with me, and wait for your phone to be blown up by scouts from major schools! "Hogist started encouraging his team-mates as soon as he came on the pitch.

"We wouldn't have lost so many points if you had come up earlier," Turner complained.

"Isn't it early! I've set aside 6 minutes to give you a glimpse of what I'm really capable of, so don't be shocked by my performance, and remember that you are also a participant in the game, don't become the closest spectator to the 'star'! ”

Haugist dribbled past half court, and in the face of Russell's defense, he called Turner to come to cover, and he used the cover to flash a little shooting space, and hit a three-pointer with a decisive quick shot.

"Beautiful! There are still 3 points left, we will work hard to prevent this wave, and we can tie it with another three points when we come back! Turner also clapped his hands to encourage his teammates.

"I'm afraid you don't have much of a chance to help on the defensive end!" Hoggist thought to himself. After Russell dribbled the ball in the half, Haugist suddenly increased the defensive pressure and took a high press, Russell was not ready and was successfully stabbed off by Haugist.

Horgist used the dual advantages of body and position, easily squeezed Russell to pick up the floor ball, dribbled to push the fast break, there was only Horgist alone in the front court, Russell was desperately chasing behind him, Horgist had not played a little trick in the game for a long time to tease the opponent, this time he suddenly had a whim, mischievously stopped the jump shot on the three-point line at the top of the arc, and then waited for Russell to stop his cylinder when he couldn't hold his foot, Russell didn't expect Haugist to stop shooting here at all, So he cooperated very well and knocked down Hoggist from behind, easily allowing him to play a 3+1.

Russell wasn't annoyed, he jumped up as soon as he turned over and hit a carp, and then pulled Haugist up, "Are you alright?" I feel like this hit is a bit heavy, I really didn't expect you to make a sudden stop shot on the three-point line, it's still early, and you don't need a buzzer beater at the last moment, this kind of ball should generally be rushed in for a dunk or layup, and score two points steadily? Why did you choose to shoot a three-pointer? ”

"Because I have the same certainty of my three points as a dunk! This kind of trick of deception and foul play I used to play in high school. Hoggist didn't hide it from Russell, and told the truth directly.

"I didn't expect you to be a repeat offender! But it looks like I've learned something new from you again! Russell smiled bitterly and shook his head, the team had overtaken by 6 points before, which seemed like a floating cloud to him, anyway, as long as Hoggist played, this little lead was not enough to see, if it wasn't for the sake of learning more, even if he put a knife on his neck, he didn't want to play against Hoggist anymore.

Hougist hit an easy free throw to regain a one-point lead in the West, and the game was back to the rhythm Hoggist wanted. However, although Russell has given up hope of winning and plays on the court with a learning attitude, the Downs Okafor duo are still hungry for victory, and the two of them are back in the basket and the inside pass is wonderfully linked to shake off Turner, and Okafor completes a heavy dunk to take the lead again.

Downs and Okafor are working together more and more tacitly, and the previous estrangement seems to have disappeared without a trace. The two high-fived excitedly in celebration, and they felt promising to bite the score to the end.

Seeing that their relationship had returned to normal, Haugist thought to himself that the promise he had promised Russell had been fulfilled, and now it was time to get paid, and I would take this game away in waves!
