Chapter 31: The First Trial

Seeing a large group of onlookers, Cheng Zixuan couldn't help frowning, the familiar scene, the familiar atmosphere, just like the fiasco on the basketball court of Normal University two weeks ago.

Everyone watched the battle, the atmosphere was warm, and from time to time there would be a few harsh mockery.

That's what we're going to face today.

What if I lose this time, now it's not just the game that I lose, but also the glory of the "Derrick Rose Supporters' Club".

Thinking of this, Cheng Zixuan unconsciously became nervous.

The weather was hot and sultry, and his heart was even more stuffy.

Roy was also a little nervous, this was also his first competition, and it was also his first combat test, and after training for so long, there was absolutely no room for error......

"Beep." A whistle blew, and the game officially began.

According to the results of the coin guess, the "old boy" will attack first.

Speaking of "Old Boys", it is composed of five players in their thirties, and a cursory observation shows that the height of several people is not too prominent, and the tonnage is also average.

These five are all college classmates, and although they went their separate ways after graduation, they have always insisted on the habit of playing basketball every week.

This is their fifth time participating in the Ronald McCup basketball tournament, and their previous best result was reaching the final stage of the senior competition in Shanghai and reaching the round of 16.

In terms of strength, they may not be very strong, but the degree of tacit cooperation is first-class.

While Cheng Zixuan and Roy were still nervous and distracted, Lao Yang was unable to support himself, and the old boys attacked the basket with three passes and two downs, scoring 2 points, 0:2.

The audience was restless, the boos gradually rose, and Roy only woke up from a dream at this time.

The race is on.

By the way, according to the tactics arranged by Cheng Zixuan before the game, I want to stand under the basket, I am the center of the team, and I have practiced the inside line skills for so long, isn't it today?

Roy, who came back to his senses, hurriedly ran to the basket, and the defenders behind him immediately stuck to him like leeches.

He wants to defend around the front? Roy quickly discerned his opponent's intentions, and he was stuck in position.

However, the pass did not come as scheduled, Roy entered the inside line, and Cheng Zixuan and Lao Yang on the outside line immediately became alone, and they were cut by the experienced opponent and it was difficult to take care of them.

The ball was in Lao Yang's hands, and the opponent broke the ball before he could dribble two steps.

Quick transfer, a mid-range shot, another 2 points, 0:4.

The Lightning started with four points in a row, and Roy was worried.

The current situation is something they didn't expect before, Cheng Zixuan's ideal tactic is the team's one-by-one pass and control, and score by cooperating to hand the ball to Roy's strong point.

However, now, he and Lao Yang can't even run the ball, so how can they organize an attack.

Do you want to go out and catch the ball, but what if you go out and go inside? His role is to be a center, but the outside line seems to need to be supported by himself.

While thinking about it, the ball came out again.

Cheng Zixuan controlled the ball, Lao Yang no longer dared to step forward to receive the ball, and the players who were marking him quickly approached Cheng Zixuan to form a pinch defense.

Cheng Zixuan, who was isolated in a corner, suddenly messed up, and he wanted to hand over a long pass to Roy directly, in exchange for a broken ball.

The quick counterattack went to the next city, and the score came to 0:6.

6 points behind! The game on the field did not go well, and the audience outside the stadium was even more frustrating.

This score and the clumsy performance of Roy's group made everyone even more convinced that Roy's strength was poor and he was only famous for his self-hype.

They were almost one-sided in support of the "old boys", with boos, whistles, and shouts of old boys cheering endlessly.

No way, seeing an Internet celebrity, seeing a mediocre person famous, who doesn't want to pull him into the water?

It can't go on like this, Roy hurriedly sorted out his mood.

We have to adjust our tactics, and no matter what, we have to score 2 points first to stabilize the morale of the army.

He kept his eyes on the situation on the court, and the opponent used a very vague man-to-man defense, except for the tall man who was guarding himself who was seriously implementing the man-to-man defense, the other two's man-to-man defense was quite vague.

The opponent should have made up his mind to strangle me to this point, and then leave Cheng Zixuan and Lao Yang two weak points, waiting for the opportunity to trap them.

In the blink of an eye, Roy had an idea.

He ran out to catch the ball.

As soon as he received the ball, the player who was staring at Lao Yang really caught up with him.

said that it was too late and that it was fast, and at the moment when the bag was formed, Roy handed a straight pass to Lao Yang.

There was an open field in front of Lao Yang, and I saw him dribble twice, and he made a mid-shot shot before the defenders came up.

The ball flew straight to the basket.

Entered? No, it's wrong, it's outrageous, the ball flew straight out of the bottom line!

Air ball!

Needless to say, the audience climaxed again.

A tidal wave of laughter hit.

Cheng Zixi was isolated, her hands were clasped, her nails were white because of nervousness, her lips were bitten, and her eyes were full of tears, she didn't dare to open her mouth to cheer for her brother and Roy, so she could only cheer silently in her heart.

Su Xiaohe's face turned pale with anger, he saw Chen Youran laughing uncontrollably from a distance, and he could guess that he must be using the topic to discredit himself and his team.

Roy was silent, and when all tactics failed, there was only one way to save the game, and that was to single.

Now, he had to go it alone.

He tries to calm his emotions and not receive distractions from the outside world.

Now all that flashes in my mind is the scenes of hard training in the past.

Breaking through the basket or choosing to shoot in the middle, Roy devised several sets of offensive plans in his head.

"Come on, come on, Internet celebrity." Just as Roy was pondering, the tall flat-headed man who was staring at him suddenly spoke defiantly, his face full of contempt and disdain.

Hearing the word "Internet celebrity", Roy became angry, and his already calm heart became turbulent again.

He has watched the two online videos about himself twice, and the following unbearable comments are still fresh in his memory, which is really a personal insult to himself.

At this time, "Pingtou" dared to use "Internet celebrity" to talk about things, which undoubtedly offended Roy's pain point.

Since you want me to come, I'll show you how good I am.

With full of anger, Roy dribbled the ball, a buffer, and was about to break through, when the defenders in front of him suddenly became two, and the pinch attack came!

Flanking defense? Is it enough for two people? Roy saw Lao Yang who fell into the vacant position, but he no longer chose to pass the ball, his mind had long been dominated by anger, and anger brought him only impulses.

The wood is already in the boat, and it is difficult to collect the water, Roy did not retreat, he chose a tough breakthrough, faster speed, faster dribbling, and in the face of absolute strength, the effect of the bag was weakened to the minimum.

Roy did it, making a big circle, his long legs overtaking the two defenders at once, and a flat horse was about to appear in front of him.

But what Roy didn't expect was that a third defender crept in.

There was no time to change direction or pass the ball, Roy collided head-on with the last defender and the ball rolled out.

The referee didn't give any signal, and the "old boys" who picked up the ball faced a virtual defense, and scored another 2 points for the leak, 0:8!

The audience burst into laughter, and needless to say, Roy's performance was messed up......
