Junior Basketball Dream Prequel: The Birth of the Big Three (4)
(4) The gathering of the Big Three
"Ao, I've heard of Jiaotong University, and it's also one of the universities I'm considering, but my first choice for the college entrance examination is Huaqiao University, but I'm still very happy that you can come!"
"If you are interested in coming, we can apply to the school to recruit basketball students, and you can enter directly without examination."
"Well, to be honest, my grades are really scumbag, if there are such conditions, I can really consider it! Hey! Speaking of entrance examination-free, Quan Yi's face immediately showed joy and smirked innocently.
"Okay, here's my business card, feel free to call me if you've thought about it!" Coach Zhao left a business card, got up and left the whole family together.
"Kid! Jiaotong University is a good school, a national key school, close to home. You have to rely on your overseas Chinese parents not to object, but after all, you are also in other places, far away from home, and they can't take care of you, and the cost is not small. Moreover, even if your current results are combined with sports expertise, I think it is still a bit difficult to be admitted to overseas Chinese. You also know the economic situation of the family, and there are 2 younger brothers who are only one year old. As soon as Coach Zhao and the three of them left, his mother persuaded Quan Yi in his ear.
"That's it! Mom, don't talk about it! I'll go, I'll call Coach Zhao tomorrow, and I'll join Jiaotong University! ”
This year's biggest successful recruitment is to let super newcomer Zhang Quanyi join Jiaotong University, just after the start of school in September, Quan Yi went to the basketball team to report:
"Hello everyone! My name is Zhang Quanyi, graduated from Qunhui Middle School, is an organization defender, 180cm tall and weighs 70kg. Please give us a lot of advice in future training competitions! ”
"Qunhui Middle School was the runner-up in the city's high school basketball league last year!" I'm the first to ask.
Quan Yi nodded.
I quipped, "Then I got it." Lost to Nanyang High School again. It is the iron Nanyang, the runner-up of flowing water, hehe! ”
Looking at Quan Yi's ignorant expression, I continued: "Senior brother, in fact, the school I was in last year also lost to Nanyang Middle School and ranked second. We're each other, haha! ”
"You, you're fifty-four?"
I nodded.
"Then, then you are Zhou Junyi!" Quan Yi excitedly called out my name.
"Wow, should I cry with joy? There were students from different schools who knew my name. What a flattering! I was so happy that I stepped forward and patted Quan Yi on the shoulder.
"Senior, don't say that, although I don't know you, but I've heard some reports from Fifty-Four Middle School, and I already know that there is a very powerful player in the school, and it turns out to be you. It's a pity that I was injured in my sophomore year of high school and didn't participate in the city's high school league with the team, otherwise I might have been able to run into you. You're my role model! Quan Yi excitedly shook my hand with both hands.
"Don't, don't! Don't get old to you, yours, I'm only a year older than you! And you're excellent too! It is our fate to be able to enter Jiaotong University today! Let's work together to aim for the CUBA championship! I stepped forward to hug him and whispered in his ear, "Welcome to the basketball team!" ”
Peng Fei also stepped forward and hugged Quan Yi: "Welcome to the basketball team of Jiaotong University!" After that, all the teammates hugged him one by one, and it was clear that this strong and humble newcomer was quite popular with everyone.
As a compulsory course for the selection of the main team of the new team, in order to test Zhang Quanyi's ability. In the group confrontation, Zheng Pengfei and I, as well as Wang Xiaojun, led the red team composed of two substitutes against Zhang Quanyi, Cao Zhixiang, Liu Yongtao and Li Weiyang.
The blue team launched the first wave of offensive, only to see Zhang Quanyi holding the ball after half the court, beckoning Liu Yongtao to come forward and make a block with himself, taking advantage of the defender's Peng Fei and Wang Xiaojun to change defenses, quickly broke into a big step, got rid of the defense, rushed straight to the basket, and easily picked up the basket to win the first goal.
"Good guy, that's a lot of speed!" Wang Xiaojun took the basketball that fell, looked back at Zhang Quanyi, who had already returned to defense, and said in surprise.
"This newcomer is really not easy!" Peng Fei said: "In this way, the fleeting opportunity to change the guard can be seized, which is amazing!" ”
Of course, our red team is not vegetarian, it is our turn to attack, I interspersed under the basket, back to receive Wang Xiaojun's pass, I dribbled twice, came to the basket, one turned around and was about to get up, Li Weiyang, who was defending me, intended to cut my ball, but I avoided it, pulled the ball to the other side, let Li Weiyang pounce, I jumped behind him, hit the ball on the board, and the ball was about to bounce into the basket. A black hand suddenly turned out and fanned the basketball. Take a closer look, the owner of the hand that flew out of the air was actually Zhang Quanyi.
Although this ball is a interference ball, Zhang Quanyi's fast speed still surprised me:
"When did this guy run from the outside to the inside to make up for the defense, and he jumped so high that he actually covered my ball. You know, I'm 11cm taller than him. ”
"This guy is not small, don't underestimate him!" Zheng Pengfei whispered a reminder beside me. I nodded, and threw myself back into the defense.
The blue team's attack was naturally initiated by Zhang Quanyi, who quickly held the ball through the half. Although Wang Xiaojun followed closely step by step and did not lose his position, it can still be seen that Quan Yi is at ease, and in terms of speed, he has an absolute advantage. After he leisurely dribbled the ball twice on the outside, he suddenly broke through to the right, Wang Xiaojun didn't dare to slack off, and immediately followed, but as soon as he stepped forward, the ball that had just dribbled to the front suddenly disappeared. It turned out that Quan Yi made a false feint, only stretched out his hand to push the ball, but did not step out, and after attracting the opponent to pounce and lose his center of gravity, he quickly pulled the ball back, a fast and secret disguised dribble, which had already sent the ball to the left hand, and then accelerated, and easily got rid of Wang Xiaojun. Burst directly into the basket, jump directly, face the red team center who is supplementing, change hands in a low post in the air, send the ball to the right hand, and then stand up in the air to complete a pull-up. Perfectly dodged the center's block, reversed the layup, and the ball hit the rebound and grazed the basket and went in again.
Two people in a row, this skill caused the blue team and all the players who did not play off the field to applaud again and again.
"Awesome! Newcomer! ”
"With the addition of such players, there is hope for our team this year!"
At the end of the half, Zhang Quanyi scored 18 points and 7 assists, and the blue team led by him to lead the red team with the two cores of me and Zheng Pengfei by 6 points.
"This guy is even more powerful than I thought! It's only the first grade, and the newcomers who have just entered the school almost beat the senior players completely! "I was scared, but I was happy that such a guy was not an opponent, but a teammate. In the future competitions, what kind of sparks will be sparked by the combination of me, Zheng Pengfei and Quan Yi, it is really exciting.
In the end, the blue team won the group battle with a 4-point advantage. This result also surprised almost everyone. No one thought that the red team, which had the two cores of me and Zheng Pengfei, would lose to a fledgling newcomer leading a blue team that was almost always a substitute.
The team ushered in the first opponent since Zhang Quanyi joined, the Business Academy team, although it is not a very strong opponent, but adhering to the idea of training the team, the head coach did not arrange me and Peng Fei to play in the starter, but only arranged Zhang Quanyi, Shangguan Yun to form a guard line, Li Weiyang, Liu Yongtao and Cao Zhixiang to form a forward line to confront the opponent.
Such a lineup did not disappoint the head coach, Zhang Quanyi used skilled ball control skills to play the opponent's point guard around. I saw him dribble in disguise for a while, and his skillful rhythm shook the opponent to almost fall, and then burst into the basket, threw high, and scored easily past the center's block. After a while, he feigned a breakthrough on the outside, and then connected the retreat step to pull out of the gap, jumped directly to shoot three points, and hit a hollow three-pointer. and then attract the opponent's double bag, and find the vacant teammates empty-handed, so that the teammates are happy to shoot easily without defense. The entire first half was almost a stage for him alone, with opponents exhausted under his flying passes, shots, and passes. With two cars to go, our team still has a 25-point lead.
Under such a score, Peng Fei and I didn't have to play in the second half, and the rest of the players rotated flexibly, but no matter who was on the field, Zhang Qiyi could always find a gap and send a comfortable catch to his teammates, either taking advantage of the opponent's untimely defense, or the opponent's change of defense, or the vacancy left after wrapping him. After his teammates threaded the needle, he scored effortlessly, and I watched him on the sidelines in a daze, which reminded me of Jason in the NBA Phoenix Suns who has a 360-degree passing vision, an unparalleled view of the big picture, and a unique ability to organize fast breaks. Kyd. Compared with Kidd's not excellent shooting touch, Zhang Qiyi's scoring ability in the college arena is definitely superior.
"It's not a player of the same grade at all! It's like a college student playing a middle school student, no, a professional player playing a middle school student! "But in fact, it was Zhang Quanyi who had just been promoted from middle school to perform on the field, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for this younger brother. He is a freshman and has a bright future ahead of him.
The team's big win was reasonable, and after this game, I vaguely felt in my heart that this guy would definitely not be an ordinary general. Not only will he shine on the CUBA court, but he will even become an excellent professional player in the wider CBA arena.
In the next game, in order to better run in the lineup, the head coach arranged for me to play with Peng Fei and Quan Yi. The opponent of this battle is the maritime university team, one of the top 8 in the city last year, which has a certain strength and is a good opponent for the drill lineup.
I, Peng Fei and Quan Yi cooperated perfectly, not only often played exquisite cooperation, but also perfect data, and the team won a big victory. The team has an overwhelming advantage compared to last year, and the confidence of the players has also soared.
Since then, the team has been invincible in the city's competitions, overcoming obstacles and passing all the way. Completed all the matches with a winning record.
On the campus forum, some people began to make a bigger splash about me, Peng Fei and Quan Yi, and called us the three giants of Jiaotong University. It has become well-known in the whole Shanghai and even East China Division, although the starting point is good, which has also made us the target of public criticism.
As the year draws to a close, and three weeks later we will have the East China Division Division, and the teams will focus their defensive attention on the three of us, and the next game will be a tough test.
In the blink of an eye, the New Year is coming, the school organizes a cultural performance, and the sports minister receives a notice from above to let our basketball team arrange a program. The teammates brainstormed and discussed until the end they decided to appear in a sketch, and several members of the team invited Ruan Xinqi and Xue Beibei to participate in the show.
The team has training tasks, but this is a dead order from the school leadership, and it can only be shown. The team didn't have a lot of rehearsal time to rehearse, so they had to win with creativity. This task fell on the team's first-year freshman Jing Kun, who entered the school team with Zhang Quanyi this year, and Zhang Quanyi, who became the absolute main force as soon as he entered the team, was different, although Jing Kun entered the team, he was the "water cooler administrator" who almost sat on the bench. When he was in high school, he was the school entertainment committee, and after two days and two nights of racking his brains, he finally came up with a script that he thought was excellent.
In order to make the sketch achieve a sensational effect, it won the top three of the entertainment show. As a director, he specially asked the team's big three and two beautiful part-time assistants to star, namely Jun Yi, Quan Yi, Peng Fei, Xinqi and Beibei. As for the specific content of the program, except for the six of them, it is strictly kept secret from the outside world, which is even more confidential than the team's secret special training. This makes the whole team look forward to the content of the show.
The last day of the year 2000, the last year at the intersection of the 20th and 21st centuries. The school's theatrical performance is staged, although the male host is handsome, but the female host is more beautiful, no, strictly speaking, not only beautiful but also more temperamental. Her fresh and natural conversation, calm and calm performance, excellent eloquence, sometimes eloquent, sometimes witty words, completely suppressed the performance of the male host, and attracted warm applause from the audience, of course, 99% of them are boys. Not only the audience, but also Zhang Quanyi, who is about to perform on stage behind the scenes, silently watched the hostess in front of the stage backstage: tall figure, upright standing posture, elegant temperament, elegant conversation, and silver bell-like voice. The graceful figure wrapped in the cheongsam made him reluctant to take his eyes off her.
"Huh? Who is this hostess? Quan Yi pulled Jing Kun and asked.
"Oh, she's Wu Xin from the second-year Department of Economics and Management, the school's new Minister of Literature and Art, how is it, it's beautiful!" Jing Kun looked at Quan Yi with a strange look.
Quan Yi didn't make a sound, just smiled and nodded.
"Hehe, your vision is really good, she is the goddess in the hearts of the boys in this school! Is there a fawn running around in your heart? Haha," Jing Kun said with a wicked smile on his elbow against Quan Yi's chest.
"you!" Quan Yi pushed Jing Kun away.
"However, you've only been in school for three months like me, how do you know so well?" Quan Yi pulled Jing Kun back again.
"You're one of the team's big three, you're a busy man, the team's regular training doesn't count, and you practice every day. How can you have time to care about school clubs and gossip? I guess you don't even go to the on-campus forum. As for me, I'm not as busy as you, so of course I have time to care about this, but everyone else seems to know about it except you! Hehe! ”
"Intramural forums? How? ”
"Drinking water and thinking about the source of the forum! You don't know? Just go to the school library, open the computer there and surf the Internet homepage is this forum. ”
"Oh!?"
"You don't know that the school library has an internet corner, right?"
Quan Yi shook his head.
"I knew you ball idiot. Ay! I don't know who posted a post on the forum, called: 'Who said that there are no beauties in Jiaotong University, the school flower search activity', and asked students to post all the photos of beautiful women they saw on campus, and then made a vote. ”
"Oh, and this event? But in this way, I have been seeing people taking pictures at school with cameras recently, and I thought that I was shooting landscapes, and I dared to shoot beautiful women? ”
"Isn't it, do you know who the top three are?"
"I don't know? How do I know who it is! ”
“no,no,no!” Jing Kun shook his fingers, raised his eyebrows at the stage and said, "No, it's one on the stage." And then, there's one that you also know. ”
"Who?"
"The part-time assistant of the team, Ruan Xinqi who rehearses the show together!"
"Huh?"
"What? Do you dare to say that Sister Xinqi is not beautiful? ”
"Who else?"
"There is another one named Ye Liyun, who also came to the stadium to watch us train. I've seen it a lot, but you're a golfer who only knows how to play, you must not be impressed! Hey! Jing Kun smiled proudly.
Quan Yi didn't say anything, just stared at the stage, watching the hostess Wu Xin walk down from the stage, walked towards him, getting closer and closer, and finally passed by him, he could even smell the fragrance emanating from her. And she just looked forward intently, not noticing the person next to her, maybe she was thinking about the next line.
