The results of the other match of the semi-finals also came out later. Ouyang Chi flipped through the mobile phone report:

Nanyang High School defeated Shanghai Middle School 105:65 at home, Zhang Zhenyi scored 38 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists. Luo Yiyun had 20 points and 8 rebounds. Rookie Zheng Shaofeng 25 points and 13 rebounds. The three of them contributed 83 points together, exceeding the score of the opponent's entire team, a terrifying statistic! ”

"The semi-finals also beat the opponent by 40 points, which is amazing!" Xia Jun sighed.

"Zhang Zhenyi, Luo Yiyun, Zheng Shaofeng! The three of them form the new troika of Nanyang! completely replaced the role of Zhang Qiyi, Mo Wenke, and Xu Zhenyu. "Nanyang's outstanding performance has cast another shadow on Siyuan's qualifying prospects. Zhang Zhenyi's scoring ability is better than his brother Zhang Qiyi, the MVP of Shanghai high school basketball last year, Luo Yiyun's singles strength is better than Mo Wenke, and Zheng Shaofeng is one of the twin stars among the newcomers this year! With such a powerful New South Sea, can the green and yellow Siyuan defeat them?

The difficulty is even more difficult than last year's victory in Wusheng!

A week later, Siyuan welcomed its second opponent, the Shanghai High School team. Just lost to the Nanyang High School team in the first game, the Shanghai Middle School team is holding back a momentum, not to mention that this time it is also the first defeat of the Siyuan team, compared to the other Guangming and Nanyang team, the hope of winning in the face of Siyuan is undoubtedly greater in their opinion.

Shanghai Middle School in the qualifiers, under the leadership of two arrowheads, Chen Yuhui and Luo Xiaoyun, had a good record, especially eliminated Huili Middle School, one of the top four last year, although Mu Zheng, one of the "five point guards", graduated and left the team. You must know that the 200cm Lei Kefeng and the 197cm Shirakawa in Huili Middle School are still in the formation, and their strength is still not to be underestimated.

In the qualifiers between Shanghai Middle School and Huili Middle School, Chen Yuhui, the team's top scorer of 187cm, successfully limited Shirakawa, who was 10cm taller than him. Let him score just 11 points in that game. And Lei Kefeng also encountered a strong resistance from the center Cui Shangjun on the inside. Choi Sang-jun is 194cm tall. weighs 106kg, does not fall below Lei Kefeng in the slightest, and has a lot of strength, repeatedly stuck in place when competing for rebounds, get rebounds, so that Lei Kefeng can not play the advantage of the second offense after grabbing rebounds in the front court, only 8 rebounds in the whole game, 15 points scored. It was the limitation of the duo's success that ultimately helped Shanghai High School win 85-79. I have to mention scoring guard Luo Xiaoyun. At 179cm, he scored a game-high 31 points, while also dishing out 11 assists. He was the first contributor to the team's victory.

Although they lost 40 points to Nanyang High School in the first semi-finals, this team should not be taken lightly.

"Every team that can enter the semi-finals is a strong team, and no game is easy to play!" Li Xiaolong admonished the team members during training.

"Mainly look at Chen Yuhui and Luo Xiaoyun, and work hard to grab rebounds, who can grab more rebounds in this game. To a large extent, it can determine the direction of the game. Therefore, the starters in the game will send a lineup of 2 power forwards. They are Zhuo Yifan and Zhong Shaoqiang, and center Xu Zhiqing, and the three of you must protect your rebounds to the death. If we lose the rebound, we may lose this game, and this task will be handed over to the three of you, especially to pay attention to the opposing power forward Choi Sang-jun, and don't repeat the mistakes of Hyeley Middle School. ”

"Good!" Si Yuan is united, and this game is also crucial for them, and there is no room for failure.

On the weekend, Siyuan was at home, and the stadium was full of spectators. Not only are the only 2,000 seats filled, but there are also about 100 people standing inside and out, and the aisles are flooded.

First entered the away team Shanghai Middle School, the starting lineup was not expected by Li Xiaolong:

No. 7 center Ye Nan 196cm102kg

No. 8 power forward Choi Sang-jun 194cm106kg

No. 9 small forward Chen Yuhui 187cm78kg

No. 6 scoring guard Luo Xiaoyun is 179cm66kg

No. 10 point guard Zhang Chenbin 176cm62kg

Siyuan Middle School, which entered later, had some adjustments to the lineup and sent a lineup of two big forwards

No. 7 Xu Zhiqing, 188cm, 82kg, center

No. 6 Zhuo Yifan 192cm, 86kg, big forward

No. 12 Zhong Shaoqiang, 188cm, 93kg, power forward

No. 5 Xia Jun, 181cm, 69kg, shooting guard

No. 4 Li Xin, 182cm, 71kg, organized guard

The referee blew a whistle, and Siyuan's highest height Zhuo Yifan and the opponent's center Ye Nan stood in the middle circle and jumped the ball. Relying on excellent bounce power, Zhuo fought for the ball, and Siyuan attacked.

At the beginning of the game, Siyuan implemented Li Xiaolong's tactical thinking, paid attention to the protection of rebounds, and replaced Zhong Shaoqiang, who replaced Huang Zesi, although his scoring ability was very average, but he played a good role as a blue-collar sapper player. Assist Zhuo Yifan to lead the Siyuan inside, especially pay attention to the competition for rebounds. Every time someone is about to make a shot, they judge where the ball is likely to land under the basket based on the line of the shot. Especially in the case that height and weight are not dominant, Cui Shangjun, the big forward against the opponent, has to withstand the opponent to defend his defensive area, and he can't grab it once he jumps, and he jumps again.

"My rebounds!" Zhong Shaoqiang jumped four times in a row, and finally grabbed the rebound, which was not dominant, into his hand, and immediately passed it to Li Xin.

"This kid can really jump!" The loss of the rebound surprised Choi Sang-jun. Li Xin scored quickly and has already scored his eighth point in the game. In the first 5 minutes of the game, Siyuan led 10:6.

Zhou Junyi off the court couldn't help but think of the video he had watched 20 years ago, the NBA champion of that year: Chicago Bulls' main power forward Dennis. Rodman. At 203cm, he is a power forward, and he does not have any advantage in the NBA at all, this guy who only started to contact basketball at the age of 19 has averaged no more than 8 points per game in his career, but he has won the title of NBA rebounding champion for 7 consecutive years, and was finally inducted into the NBA's Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.

And at this time, Zhong Shaoqiang. It's a little Rodman who lives out. The height of 188cm is not as high as that of Choi Sang-jun who is 194cm. He also weighed much less than his opponents. But with a momentum. and familiarity with teammates' shooting routes, as well as a clear on-court goal: to compete for rebounds and tenaciously fight with the opposing team's big guys.

"The score is up to you!" Zhong Shaoqiang grabbed another rebound. Offensive and defensive transitions. Zhuo Yifan, Li Xin, and Xia Jun's skillful triangular offense quickly tore through the opponent's defense, and Xia Junzhong scored 2 points.

Xu Zhiqing's height of 188cm and Ye Nan are also completely inferior in the matchup, and his goal is also clear, to protect his own rebounds.

"You can't score anything. But~! At least~! I want to give my contribution to the team! Xu Zhiqing struggled to compete for every rebound.

"My rebounds!" It was his fifth rebound of the game. Look at the basket, leaving only the opponent's center Ye Nan shaking his head.

It is to rely on the clear division of labor between Xu Zhiqing and the two to ensure that their own defensive rebounds are not lost.

Zhuo Yifan, Xu Zhiqing, and Zhong Shaoqiang grabbed a total of 20 rebounds in the first half, compared with the opponent's 18 rebounds for the whole team, and the tactics of desperate rebounds were undoubtedly successful. On the offensive end, Li Xin and Xia Jun contributed 12 and 13 points respectively as arrowheads. Zhuo Yifan also scored 9 points.

At halftime, Si Yuan entered the second half with an 8-point advantage at 43:35.

At the start of the second half, Shanghai Middle School clearly adjusted its tactics. The coach asked to pay attention to the scramble for rebounds. But with only the four punches of Ye Nan and Cui Shangjun, after all, they can't reach Zhuo Yifan. Xu Zhiqing, Zhong Shaoqiang's six hands. Whenever there is a rebounding opportunity, the three will form a triangle on their own inside, squeezing the opponent out of the inside, and the iron triangle on the inside becomes a safe zone. Most of your defensive rebounds are controlled as a guarantee for your offense.

When attacking, Li Xin, Xia Jun, and Zhuo Yifan formed an iron triangle of attack. Xia Jun is responsible for outside scoring and mid-range, Li Xin is responsible for breaking through and mid-range shooting, Zhuo Yifan is responsible for impacting the basket to make foul free throws and the second offense in the front court.

At 82:65 in the final game, Siyuan Middle School defeated Shanghai Middle School by 17 points. Zhuo Yifan grabbed 10 rebounds and scored 24 points as the number one contributor. Li Xin had 21 points and 11 assists. Xia Jun hit three three-pointers and scored 20 points, and the "offensive iron triangle" combined to contribute 65 points. Xu Zhiqing in the "Iron Triangle of Defense" contributed 12 rebounds, and Zhong Shaoqiang contributed 11 rebounds, plus 3 blocks. surpassed the opponent by 10 in total rebounds, tried to keep his own city open, and did not let the opponent's interior take advantage of anything at all. The cooperation between the main force and the newcomers makes people see the hope of this new Siyuan team again. As a result, he won a valuable game.

The other game was also coming to an end, with 2 minutes left in the game, and Nanyang led by 7 points at 75:68:

Nanyang's super newcomer Zheng Shaofeng holds the ball, and he is opposite Xu Xuankun, another super newcomer with the title of super newcomer. Between Zheng Shaofeng broke through from the right side, dribbled from behind to the left hand and pretended to break through from the left side, Xu Xuankun was about to block the left side, Shaofeng cut the ball back to the right hand, the whole process was only 0.2 seconds, Xu Xuankun, who lost his center of gravity, could only watch the opponent speed past in front of his eyes. Breaking through the board and making a layup, Nanyang added another 2 points. The score difference has been stretched to 9 points.

After the switch between attack and defense, both sides wasted an attacking opportunity each. After the bright Xiao Changhuan held the ball and Shan Wenwei made a split, he only passed to Shan Wenwei, and as soon as he got the ball, the inside line immediately attracted the double bag of Luo Yiyun and Zheng Shaofeng on the inside. With his back passing, the ball went to Fang Qiongyu on the right side, and he threw it in the middle. The ball bounced on the basket and didn't go in. Shan Wenwei jumped up and lightly tapped the popped basketball, and the ball hit the frame and finally fell into the net.

There were only 35 seconds left in the last 35 seconds, and Zhang Zhenyi held the ball at the top of the free throw arc and faced Shan Wenwei. Shan Wenwei kept harassing Zhang Zhenyi with one hand, and followed closely step by step. Zhang Zhenyi dribbled twice in a row on the left side, relying on the change of rhythm to look for opportunities. Shan Wenwei was unmoved, still firmly holding his defensive position. Zhenyi changed hands twice again to dribble, and then received two cross-step dribbles, and his body was already in a position of one step forward. Shan Wenwei's defensive position is somewhat lost, but not completely lost. But Zhenyi dribbled with one hand for the last time and seemed to push the ball to the right to break through, but he withdrew his hand and turned the ball back to the left with a small movement. Relying on this extremely fast and deceptive feint, Shan Wenwei finally lost his defensive position, stumbling and almost falling. Zhenyi rushed into the interior like a lightning bolt and switched hands to score in the face of the opposing center. Zhang Zhenyi, who is good at street ball, deserves the title of "ankle finisher", which is beyond the reach of ordinary academic players, and Zhang Zhenyi is a leader in the street ball world on a national scale.

At 79:70, only the last 8 seconds were left for Guangming, and Xiao Changhuan's long shot was missed. The final score was 79:70. Nanyang High School defeated Guangming High School. With 2 games and 2 wins, he ranked first and basically locked a place to participate in the national competition. The focus is on the confrontation between Nanyang's new leader, Zhang Zhenyi, and Shan Wenwei, a bright one. Even against Shan Wenwei, Zhang Zhenyi still scored 29 points in the game, in addition to a triple-double of 11 rebounds and 10 assists, which amazed the whole game. Although Shan Wenwei also scored 27 points, the team still lost the game.

In another eye-catching matchup between the two super newcomers of Guangming Nanyang, Zheng Shaofeng completely suppressed Xu Xuankun, with the former scoring 22 points and 9 rebounds. Xu Xuankun only scored 12 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists, and his performance was much inferior, which was also one of the main reasons why Guangming lost to Nanyang. (To be continued.) )
