Section 22 The King Wins Martial Arts
After two rounds in a row and eliminated the Nanyang High School team in the last semi-finals, Jida High School showed extraordinary strength.
The other top eight finalists have also been selected:
The top three in the last competition all passed easily, and the results of the quarterfinals also came out
No.1 seed Beijing Wusheng High School (108:58 (A) 116:69 (H)) defeated Guangzhou ECNU High School to show the momentum of the defending champions. Jiang Chengyi scored an astonishing 104 points in two games, close to half of the team's scores, and was the undisputed king on the scoring list; Wang Linzhou's total of 30 assists also put him at the top of the assist list, in addition to contributing a total of 48 points.

Twenty-two 188cm tall scoring guard, slender figure, but extremely good bounce, 90 points in two games, second only to the crazy Wu Sheng Jiang Chengyi in the personal scoring list, he is the ace of the twenty-two, the main scoring guard of the Southern Star Team in the last Star League All-Star Game and a member of the best team in last year's National League and the MVP winner of this year's South China Division, Gao Youjun, of course, was also selected for the Star League.
The No. 3 seed Shenyang No. 31 Middle School (86:75 (away) 79:70 (home)) defeated the Second High School Attached to Shandong Normal University, the third place in the last session took a little twists and turns, encountered the stubborn resistance of Cheng Zhiyin, a member of the Star Alliance of the Second High School of Shandong Normal University, and finally had the final kill last year, so that Dongguan Middle School went home early, and Qian Haiyue, a super power forward who was selected for the best team of last year's national league, was in charge, and the performance of the Second High School of the Second Affiliated High School of Shandong Normal University only ended here.
The No. 4 seed, Shanghai Nanyang High School (63:91 (a) 85:79 (home)) was unexpectedly eliminated by Jilin Jida High School. The biggest surprise of this round, the last semi-finals, Nanyang High School ended its schedule early on its debut. Jida High School, which entered the national competition for the first time, has two rounds in a row and has become the biggest dark horse of this competition. Power forward Luo Jianxing topped the individual rebounding rankings with an average of 18 rebounds per game, and was also the second player from Jida High School to be selected into the Star League after Cheng Si, and he was nicknamed the "Prince of Rebounds" after eliminating the fans who loved him after Nanyang High School.
No. 5 seeds, Chengdu Yuping High School (59:67 (A)*:78 (H)) lost to Nanjing Jiucheng High School. Nanjing Jiucheng became the third unseeded team to reach the quarterfinals after Jida High School and Siyuan High School, defeating the No. 5 seed in both games, showing extraordinary strength and should not be underestimated. The fledgling center power forward swingman Deng Yan still performed eye-catching, grabbing 35 rebounds, 48 points, and 8 blocks in two games, ranking seventh in scoring, third in rebounds, and second in blocks, which attracted wide attention.
No. 7 seed Beijing Sports Normal University High School (94:72 (away) 90:62 (home)) Guizhou Normal University High School, with the highest height of this year's league Beijing Sports University High School, known as the "future star" Li Mengzhou's performance is still eye-catching, two rounds of games with a total of 70 points, 45 rebounds, rebounds ranked second, scoring fourth, and easily passed.

And the division of kings and one of the dark horses from Shanghai compete for a place in the semi-finals:
Beijing Wusheng Middle School (No. 1 seed) VS Shanghai Siyuan Middle School
The first leg will be played in three days' time, so there is not much time for the team to adjust.
The "XX High School Basketball" magazine, which is famous for covering the national high school league, summarized the previous games and made an outlook for the quarters of the games.
Although I didn't like some of the magazine's reports, many of the players read the magazine's reports as the main way to understand their opponents.
"The quarterfinals were uneventful, with strong teams passing through, and the only big upset was when Shanghai Nanyang High School, which was in the semi-finals of the last session, was eliminated by the team that had been entering the national competition for the first time.
Last year, the top three teams still maintained strong strength, and they played against the High School Affiliated to Beijing Sports University, Wuhan Forestry Vocational High School and Shanghai Siyuan Middle School are still difficult to shake their position, and it is not surprising that they are expected to occupy three seats in the top four.
The last semi-final place, will be produced in the two dark horses, compared to the Nanjing Jiucheng Middle School team, the elimination of Nanyang High School Jida High School, is undoubtedly a darker dark horse, the first round of the two games a total of 130 points net win over the opponent, and the second round of the home victory over Nanyang Middle School 28 points, the strength of this team should not be underestimated.
From this point of view, the suspense of the quarter-finals is not big, and the semi-finals after that are the real strong dialogue, whether Shenyang No. 31 Middle School can break through the hegemony that has been monopolized by Beijing Wusheng High School for many years. Can Jida High School continue to write the myth of the dark horse After eliminating Nanyang Middle School, Guangzhou No. 22 Middle School will be beheaded under the horse. Let's wait and see in the semi-finals. ”
"Damn, what a bad article? Just mentioned the name of our school, can't the elimination of the Dongguan middle school team still attract their attention? actually said that there was no suspense in the quarterfinals. Zhuo Yifan couldn't help but scold while watching.
"If you don't like this magazine, why do you still read it? Wouldn't it be better to look at the expectations and encouragement of the newspapers in Shanghai? ”
"Hehe, I'm just going to see what they write, aren't they authorities? The more we are said to be penniless, the more my fighting spirit will be stimulated, and the more my fighting spirit will burn, to hell with the authority! I made them lose face last time, and this time I still write, just let them lose face again, write again, and lose face again......" Zhuo clenched his fists, his face full of excitement, as if he still saw a fire trembling on his body.
"This man is so dangerous, stay away from him! Let's go! Xia Jun said and pulled Li Xin and walked towards the door.
"Hey, where are you going?" Zhuo Yifan, who had regained his senses, asked.
"Oh, Xiaoxue said just now that there is our registered mail, why don't we pick it up?"
"Registered mail? What registered mail? ”
"I heard that it was sent from Guangdong, but I don't know, let's go and have a look."
"Guangdong? Do we know anyone in Guangdong? ”
"Oh, I see, it must be our last defeat to the Dongguan middle school team, and their female fans were impressed by my charm and wrote me a letter of condolence."
“……”
"Maybe it's a love letter!"
"It's less smelly and beautiful, let's go!" Xia Jun and Li Xin pulled away Zhuo Yifan, who was still intoxicated, in unison.
"What, the editorial department of Dongguan Sports News, the newspaper, who would be so bored to send a newspaper from Guangdong?" Zhuo was disappointed to receive the registered letter, signed to the basketball team of Siyuan Middle School.
"Take it apart and take it apart!"
Take a look at it, it is really the latest issue of Dongguan Sports News, and a letter is also sent in it.
Unfolding the newspaper, there is a detailed report on the game between Siyuan and Dongguan Middle School on the prominent page, and the report is so detailed that it cannot be compared with other similar newspapers and periodicals.
At the end of the article, he gave a high evaluation to Si Yuan: "Throughout the game, Si Yuan is better than the Dongguan Middle School team in terms of team skills and tactics and personal ability, and at the critical moment Si Yuan's key player Han Chongyu and Li Xin did not show any timidity as a novice who entered the national league for the first time, and quickly caught up with the score, while Dongguan Middle School was a little helpless at this time, and repeated mistakes eventually led to the defeat of the game."
According to Siyuan's current performance, the next game against the previous champion Wusheng Middle School, although the chance of winning is not big, if the level of this game is played, I believe it will be a good-looking game. ”
The letter is handwritten, and every stroke is quite beautiful.
"Letter?"
"Read, read, read!"
Li Xin unfolded the letter and read it aloud:
"Dear Siyuan Basketball Team:
Hello, I am a basketball reporter from Dongguan Sports News, and I am responsible for covering the event coverage of the National Basketball League. But unfortunately our team, Dongguan Middle School, was eliminated by your team. I also wish you all the best in the upcoming competitions.
After watching your games on the spot, from the perspective of a professional basketball reporter, I learned that your Siyuan has always had many excellent players, superb skills and tactics, unity, and tenacious and enterprising team. Han Chongyu, Zhuo Yifan, Xia Jun, Li Xin, etc. of your team are all players I like very much, in you, I see the vitality of a high school student, and see the hope of Chinese basketball, so it is not surprising to be able to eliminate our provincial runner-up, Dongguan Middle School in the top eight in the country. ”
Reading this, the faces of the three of them couldn't help but be hot, and they could be praised like this by someone they didn't know, in Zhuo's words: "It's enough for you to drag for a few days!" ”
Li Xin continued: "But in the next game, the team you are about to face is the five-time high school league national champion Beijing Wusheng Middle School. This will be the biggest test of your competition.
Because I love your team, I'm going to tell you something I know and hear as a reporter who specializes in high school basketball, and I'm going to give you some advice just for your reference.
Beijing Wusheng Middle School is far stronger than other high school teams, and the Wusheng Middle School team must not be viewed with the common sense of the general team, a team that can win five consecutive championships has not only extraordinary strength, but also excellent psychological quality. and tenacious struggle, never give up the superhuman will. Take a few games from the previous two years as an example. ”
The reporter's letter was written in great detail, sprinkled with several pieces of paper, and the games and players of Wusheng Middle School were written in three points, and Li Xin and the others looked as if they were there in the game:
At that time, the 14-year-old talented basketball boy scored a record 45 points in the finals of the Beijing junior high school basketball schedule, even exceeding the score of the opponent's entire team, so he became famous. After graduating from the old class of players, Wusheng Middle School urgently needed a super defender and a golden backfield composed of Wang Linzhou, and Jiang Chengyi naturally became the target of Wusheng Middle School.
On the first day of reporting to the team, Jiang Chengyi scored 38 points in the team's group game, poured 6 baskets on the heads of the veteran players, and proved himself with absolute strength. On the first day of joining the team, the position of the absolute main force was determined.
A year has passed, and Jiang Chengyi, who is only 15 years old, has grown 10 centimeters in height in a year. The 190-centimeter shooting guard in the high school league made him not afraid to face any player on other teams, and it became his daily routine to compete with the opposing center for rebounds and dunk directly after grabbing rebounds under the basket. In the national division preliminaries, Wusheng mainly trained newcomers, and almost all the other main players sat on the wall and watched, Jiang Chengyi turned the game into his own personal performance, and it is no longer news to score more than 40 points alone, 50 points, or even 60 points are common. also made his name quickly popular in Beijing City and even the entire North China high school basketball community. The nickname 'Little Emperor of Beijing' also spread.
His quick start speed and amazing explosiveness are the biggest characteristics, compared to the strong play under the basket, the middle and outside line is a little weaker, and he can try to keep him away from the middle and close range when defending. But that's easier said than done.
And the most critical person for Jiang Chengyi to be able to integrate into this team is Wang Linzhou. The young and frivolous Jiang Chengyi once said: 'In the entire Chinese high school basketball world, the only thing I admire is our captain - Wang Linzhou. ’
Wang Linzhou has been serving as a scoring guard before Jiang Chengyi came to the team, and after Jiang Chengyi, who has super scoring ability, came, he took the initiative to let Xian serve as an organizational guard. This transfer turned out to be exactly right, with many of the teams that played against Wusheng saying: 'Wusheng has become more invincible. In the first two games of the national competition, Wang Linzhou provided 30 assists. In addition to the scoring champion, the original team's scoring champion quickly converted into an assist champion. ’
Wang Linzhou's middle distance is also very accurate, and in the guards, I am afraid that there is no one else except Jiang Chengyi and Gao Youjun of Guangzhou No. 22 Middle School. And now the game of Wu Sheng must always be dike his passes. The group cooperates, and this is their most feared weapon right now. ”
