Chapter 18: Brother Duel
Last season's St. Margaret Catholic High School wasn't a strong team, but this season they not only got Klay Thompson, a top scorer from St. Lawrence, but also Layton, a strong guard from Purdue. This has made them skyrocketing in strength, and they are like dark horses in northern California.
Judging from the current comparison of the strength of the two sides, there is no doubt that Wellington High School is at a disadvantage, but it is precisely because of the X factor of Bai Xiaonian that the result of the game still retains some suspense.
Under the excavation of some careful people, the fateful duel between Bai Xiaonian and Clay, the former St. Lawrence Turkeys, has also attracted widespread attention.
The reporters of the Los Angeles Sports Newspaper on the sidelines set up professional cameras early, apparently interested in this sibling duel.
Bai Xiaonian and Clay hugged each other on the court.
"Bai Xiaonian, the final victory in this game belongs to me." Clay arrogantly put cruel words on the top of two big dark circles, it seems that yesterday's scene hit him really hard.
"Oh? Is it? With your dark circles? Bai Xiaonian also scolded him unceremoniously.
The brothers are very settling, and they are opponents in today's arena.
Beep beep! The referee blew the whistle for the start of the whole game.
Wallace's bouncing has been fully developed after nearly a year of scientific training, and his height of 207 cm easily took off the basketball on the head of the opponent's center Siddeley and sent it to Bai Xiaonian's hands.
Maybe Bai Xiaonian intends to compete with Klay for three points today, and in the shouts full of estrogen in the Poke Arena, he first raised his hand and walked a super long three-pointer, but it is estimated that the hand has not yet opened, Bai Xiaonian's three points smashed on the neck of the basket, and the rebound was protected by the opponent's center Sidley.
Siddellley gave the ball to St. Margaret's Catholic High School point guard Layton to the frontcourt, and then handed it to Klay who was running, and seeing that he had run out of the gap, Clay directly turned over and made a jumper, and hit a solid shot to win the game.
Joseph shook his head off the field, although after his year-long training, these little guys still seem a little immature in tactics, especially in the defense of this kind of passing and cutting coordination, it is easy to leak people.
The girls from Wellington High School in the stands gave a huge boo to the white boy who had just scored, which made Clay, who had been eager to hug the beauty among the many girls in Wellington High School, feel bitter, and it seems that this is really no fun.
Bai Xiaonian came to the front court with the ball and poured the ball to Sam, Sam returned it to Bai Xiaonian who was running, and after running around the three-point line for half a lap, he directly faced Klay.
Pulling the ball left and right in front of Clay, Bai Xiaonian motioned to everyone at Wellington High School to open up space for him to play single.
When Bai Xiaonian and Clay were in St. Lawrence, there was no less bullfighting, of course, the result was that Bai Xiaonian won more and lost less, after all, Clay's dribbling is really not excellent, after a year, the two good friends are once again one-on-one on the field, will there be other suspense as a result?
"Hey! Clay, you really haven't grown at all in the past year! Bai Xiaonian smiled.
Two back-to-back changes in a row tossed Clay aside, turning into lightning that stabbed straight into the forbidden area of St. Margaret's Catholic High School.
Sidley under the basket saw that Bai Xiaonian actually dared to go deep into his own territory and decided to give this arrogant kid a good look.
Bai Xiaonian smiled strangely at Sidley in front of him, and regardless of the huge physical gap between the two sides, he actually took off half a step outside the three-second zone.
Do you want to go straight to the head of the opposing center? Is he crazy? That's what most people on the field think.
Siddeley's face smirked, and he shouted inwardly, "Boy! You're done! ”
Seeing that Bai Xiaonian was getting closer and closer, he also jumped high, raising his arms high, it seemed that a volleyball hat was inevitable.
Just when everyone was sweating for Bai Xiaonian, he made an unbelievable move in the air, first tilted his body slightly to the left in the air, grabbed the basketball that was originally in his right hand and replaced it with his left hand, so the whole person passed by Siddelli in mid-air, and with a gentle high throw, the basketball obediently got into the net.
"Empty change hands and layups!" Bai Xiaonian recreated the famous stunt of Qiao Gang Leader in front of Sidley, and this poor big man became the backdrop for Bai Xiaonian's gorgeous performance.
Countless girls in the stands cheered the most enthusiastically for this elegant goal. How could their most powerful elven prince be easily defeated by that stupid big man?
St Margaret's counter-attack soon began, with a succession of passes up front that turned the Wellington High School defence into a pot of porridge, and finally the ball was handed to Clay, who was ambushed on the outside.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaonian hurriedly rushed out to interfere with Clay's shooting, but unfortunately, he was still a step late, and the basketball had already been pulled out by Clay before he jumped.
Swish! Basketball hollow into the net.
Bai Xiaonian glared hatefully at Clay, who was showing off his might in front of him, and looked at his villain's cowardice.
Rushing to the front court with the ball, Clay immediately posted it, Bai Xiaonian directly ignored his defense, and a big change of direction made Clay clean up.
Randle, the small forward of St. Margaret's High School on the side, saw this and hurriedly rushed over to make up for it.
Bai Xiaonian braked suddenly, and the extremely sassy Mandarin Duck T-Mac3 under his feet rubbed violently against the ground and made a piercing scream, and a crisp step back retreated his body beyond the three-point line, and directly pulled out three points.
Randle's reaction speed is not slow, but compared to Bai Xiaonian, he is like a twilight old man, when Bai Xiaonian has jumped high, he can only get back to his body and want to block Bai Xiaonian's shot, but this is obviously too late.
Bai Xiaonian looked at the basketball that crossed the sky, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with confidence.
Swish! The crisp sound of brushing the net sounded in the stadium, followed by the crazy cheers of the girls.
The game had just begun, Bai Xiaonian and Clay had a fight, and the score between the two sides also came to a 5-5 draw, and all the scores in the game were contracted by the two brothers.
The next 10 minutes were completely an exhibition game between the two brothers, Bai Xiaonian threw a three-pointer here, and Clay must return one when he turned around, and the scores of the two sides went back and forth alternately.
Clay burst into Wellington High School again, and after attracting two players to the basket, he threw the ball to Randle, who was unattended under the basket, and dunked it with both hands on the spot.
Clay and Randall happily clapped their hands in front of Bai Xiaonian: "Good job!" ”
Bai Xiaonian was naturally not discouraged by a mistake in a ball, and took the ball sent by Coaster to the front court to wait for his teammates to run.
Clay didn't give Bai Xiaonian another chance to pull out three points this time, and stood directly on the three-point line.
Bai Xiaonian observed left and right, and gently picked the ball to Coaster, who asked for the ball inside, this fat man showed flexibility that did not fit his figure in the penalty area, and hit the basket after two consecutive virtual points of the opponent's center Sidley.
After that, I don't know why both sides suddenly lost their shooting crosshairs, and began a crazy iron battle, directly turning the newly renovated Poké Arena into a Wellington blacksmith shop, and the basket couldn't stop making a "clang" wail.
As a result, the score was at a low score of 37-38 at halftime, and St. Margaret's Catholic High School temporarily held a one-point lead heading into the break.
