Chapter 4 Section 48 Before the Final
Although Siyuan finally lost to Wusheng Middle School by only one point on aggregate in Beijing, he still defeated Wusheng Middle School 85-84 in only a single game, ending the myth that Wusheng had been unbeaten at home for several years.
After Siyuan returned to Shanghai, he was still warmly sought after by the local media, and Li Xin, who performed the most eye-catching in the game, undoubtedly became the object of media coverage, overnight, Li Xin became an idol in the hearts of many of his peers, once upon a time he also watched other basketball stars dream of becoming a great player one day, and this day, so soon the dream came true, so fast that Li Xin almost couldn't believe it was true.
Although the results of failure are sometimes difficult to accept for a while, on the road of human growth, we must learn to face failure, accept failure, step through failure and continue to move forward on the road to success.
The CHBL National League continued, and although Li Xin, who had finished the game, could no longer exercise for the time being, she began to pay close attention to the next game in bed.
Three days later, it was the date of the first match of the semi-finals. At two o'clock in the afternoon, the game started on time, and the game between Guangzhou No. 22 Middle School and Wusheng Middle School was the home field. Another game between Shenyang No. 31 Middle School and Jilin Jida High School also started at the same time, and Jilin was the home field. Guangzhou Satellite TV and Jilin Satellite TV broadcast the two games respectively.
Because of the serious injury, Li Xin, accompanied by Xiaoxue, watched the live broadcast of Wusheng's match against Guangzhou No. 22 Middle School in the hospital.
Wu Sheng's starting lineup was exactly the same as Siyuan's second game: center He Chaoyun, power forwards Meng Dinan, and Sui Chengan returned to the small forward position to play their true colors as attackers, and the guards were Jiang Chengyi and Wang Linzhou.
The starters of Guangzhou No. 22 Middle School are: center Zhang Xiufeng (198cm), big forward Miao Bo (193cm), small forward Sun Yanfei (186cm), star scoring guard Gao Youjun (188cm), and organizational guard Li Zhiyong (175cm).
The match between Wu Sheng and Twenty-two: Zhang Xiufeng, who is more slender, fights for the ball. Gao Youjun held the ball to the front court and faced Jiang Chengyi. The first conversation between the two super scoring guards who are currently in the top two scorers.
Gao Youjun held the ball in both hands and shook it twice in a row. Starting from the right side, he singled with his back, just entered the inside line, took a step to take the lead, and made another shooting feint to deceive Jiang Chengyi's center of gravity, rebounded violently, and hit the ball into the frame.
Two points are scored first in the twenty-two.
Gao Youjun glanced at Jiang Chengyi sleepily. With a look of nonchalance, he turned his head and went back to defense, as if to say: "This is the strength of the first scorer?" ”
Jiang Chengyi touched his nose: "Interesting." I thought that the only ones who could score in front of me this year were Siyuan's Han Chongyu and Li Xin, but another one popped up today. ”
The duel between the two began, and Jiang Chengyi immediately returned the favor in front of Gao Youjun.
In the early stages of the game, the scores of the two teams alternated upwards. Twenty-two middle school with Gao Youjun's outstanding performance. Scored 8 points in a row in the first period. Two of them were against Jiang Chengyi's score. Twenty-two leads by four points.
"Good! Come on, Gao Youjun! ”
"What Jiang Chengyi, what the first newcomer, is far from our Gao Youjun."
"Down with Wu Sheng! Down with Wu Sheng! "The fans in Guangzhou are frantically supporting their team, and they have been hiding a wave of anger in their hearts for a year. Gao Youjun's rapid progress this year has strengthened their confidence.
But what cannot be ignored is that this year Wusheng also joined a tiger general. It is Jiang Chengyi.
The battle between the two is like a dragon fighting a tiger. You come and go, and the battle is extremely fierce.
The two fought vigorously, and the emotions of the TV commentator were also mobilized: "The game lasted 8 minutes, and the main players of the two teams, Gao Youjun and Jiang Chengyi, showed us superb skills, and the two each scored 8 points for the team, let's watch this ball." It was Wu Shengjiang Chengyi's breakthrough again, and he easily passed the guard Li Zhiyong who assisted in defense with a big stride, and he actually jumped up when he stepped on the sideline of the penalty area, what did he want to do, could he go to the basket at such a distance? Oh? Oh my God, it's an overhand slam dunk that separates people. I really sigh at the physical fitness of high school students now, this is an action that many professional players can't do, it's really breathtaking! ”
10 minutes later, Guangzhou No. 22 Middle School led by six points at 22:16. Gao Youjun scored 12 points alone, and Jiang Chengyi did not show weakness and scored 11 points.
But in the second half of the first half, Wu Sheng finally showed his kingly demeanor and launched a strong counterattack. Under Wang Linzhou's scheduling, Sui Chengan was resurrected, and after the last game against Siyuan, he quickly rebounded and hit three three-pointers in a row. plus He Chaoyun's inside strong attack and Meng Dinan's frontcourt rebounds. In one fell swoop, there was a small climax of 14:6.
In the last 20 seconds of the half, the last wave of offense in the twenty-two, it was Gao Youjun, the absolute ace of the team, who took the ball. Jiang Chengyi lost his judgment.
In the middle, Gao Youjun opened a bloody road, threw the ball up, and the ball hit the rebound, so that no one on the inside line reacted.
"What, shot?" Jiang Chengyi was shocked.
The shadow changed steps, and disappeared from front of Jiang Chengyi in an instant.
When he reappeared, Gao Youjun had already jumped up from inside the penalty area.
"What is he going to do?"
Yes, you guys have a good idea? I saw Gao Youjun rise up, the veins on his legs burst out of muscles, showing amazing bounce power, and he continued to fly in the air for a distance of nearly 3 meters, and finally grabbed the rebounded ball with both hands in the air, and immediately changed to a one-handed arm slam dunk.
This is a recreation of McGretty's shocking one-man rebound dunk at the 2003 All-Star Game.
"Wow! That's not true, is it? Such actions are also done! ”
"It's worthy of Gao Youjun! Wu Sheng, wait and see in the second half! "Guangzhou's home stadium is full of people. The first half went through the last second.
"38:32", the end of the first half, although Wu Sheng led by 6 points, but Gao Youjun's last wonderful dunk saved a lot of hope and momentum. There was still drama in the second half.
"Alas, it should have been our Siyuan who appeared in this game!" Xiaoxue sighed in front of the TV.
"Xiaoxue, don't mention the past. One should look forward and always regret the past is useless. ”
"It's like even though I scored the last ball in that game, I was still injured and couldn't play, and the same was true for Brother Chongyu. Si Yuan, who did not have the main force to organize the defender, met the runner-up of the last session, and the result was still more than lucky! I don't care about it anymore and now I'm just watching it as a fan. After so many races, I'm also tired and want to take a good rest. ”
"It's rare that you'll be able to see that openly. I always thought you would be haunted, it's really not my Li Xin! I'm going to wash your apples, stay there! Xiao Xue said coquettishly and walked out of the ward happily.
"'My Li Xin?'. What is the meaning? I'm not an apple. Li Xin was a little confused.
And at the same time. Zhuo Yifan, Xia Jun and Han Chongyu watched the match between the third runner-up of the last year, Shenyang No. 31 Middle School and the big dark horse Jilin Jida High School, at Zhuo's home.
The two teams were also particularly fiercely contested.
The starting line-ups for both teams were:
Jida High School: Center Xian Shuzhang (202cm), big forward Luo Jianxing (195cm), small forward Jiang Chao (184cm), scoring guard He Guangwei (178cm), organizational guard Cheng Si (183cm)
Shenyang No.31 Middle School: center Jiang Mingjun (194cm), big forward Qian Haiyue (196cm), small forward Lei Yiming (192cm), scoring guard Zhao Zongpeng (182cm), organizational guard Chen Xiaowen (179cm)
The TV host also gave a brief introduction to the two teams: "Jilin Jida High School is a new army that has only emerged this year, and this year there are many young and potential young players to join, making it the only big dark horse team to break into the top four this year." There are already many media outlets who believe that this team could be the first opponent to challenge the five-time champion Wusheng High School, who knocked down one of the last four finalists in the tournament in their first game and won by 28 points. As the third runner-up of the previous session, Shenyang No. 31 Middle School naturally cannot be underestimated. They have Qian Haiyue, the all-star power forward of the last high school league, and with the help of high school junior Jiang Mingjun and shooting guard Zhao Zongpeng, they have a pretty good combination of inside and outside. In the previous games, they didn't want much resistance. Entered the semi-finals with a complete victory. ”
At the beginning of the game, the first thing was the 31st middle school. It was still Qian Haiyue who attacked on the inside, and he scored 4 points alone. Led 4-0.
And soon Jida High School launched a counterattack, and scored 8 points in a row, from four different players, except for Luo Jianxing, who contributed to the fact that he had already scored 5 rebounds, including three frontcourt rebounds. It also contributed three chances for the team to attack twice. Mid-range shots, inside shots, layups, dunks, Jida High School showed perfect scoring ability.
Jida High School does not have super-first-class star-level players like Wang Linzhou, Jiang Chengyi, Gao Youjun and Qian Haiyue, and the only star on the team is their organizational guard Cheng Si. However, there is no shortage of excellent players in Jida High School, and it should be said that all the players who can play have the ability to take charge of themselves and become an indispensable part of the team.
In this game, Luo Jianxing's strong rebounding and defensive ability became the most important weapon to resist Qian Haiyue in the 31st century.
At 16:10, Jida High School, which was fighting at home, was already six points ahead. Qian Haiyue singled out Luo Jianxing inside, 196cm vs. 195cm, averaging 26 points per game vs. 21 rebounds per game. One Mao and one shield, the competition for the position of the inside power forward has become the key.
Qian Haiyue is tall and has long arms, and his skills are also extremely flexible, after grabbing the ball, he leaned on Luo Jianxingyun for two steps, and immediately used his flexibility to take advantage, and he actually jumped up when he took a step, and scored a sideways jump shot.
Switching between offense and defense, He Guangwei broke through alone and missed. Qian Luo's two baskets rebounded fiercely, Haiyue first took the lead and resisted the position, but immediately Luo Jianxing took advantage of his strong body to take a stride and leaned back to Haiyue, after jumping, Luo Jianxing's explosive power occupied an obvious advantage, cannonball-like rush out, the moon in the air, two big hands firmly grasped the basketball, no one can steal it, even if it is an all-star player Qian Haiyue only has the share of looking at the ball and sighing, and then distributed it to Jiang Chao, who is plugged in, and the jump shot is stopped in the movement, and the hollow enters the net.
At halftime, Jida High School led by four points at 45:41.
At the beginning of the second half, Jida High School began to show another advantage: physical strength.
Their frantic pressing technique throughout the field made it extremely difficult for Shenyang No. 31 to advance, and this tactic would consume a lot of physical strength from both the offensive and defensive sides, which turned the game into a physical competition.
Jida High School frequently encircled the opponent with amazing physical strength without scruples, and the 31st Middle School did not have much to do about it, and fell into a disadvantage. In terms of offense, under Cheng Si's threading of the needle, the offense of Jida High School also played well. Jiang Chao's mid-range shot after the breakthrough, He Guangwei's breakthrough, Luo Jianxing's second attack, and Xian Shuzhang's hook shot were all brought into full play. Yuan Dongsheng, Li Tianming, and Ou Mengde, who came on as substitutes in the second half, also took on their responsibilities well and made up for the lack of physical strength. After 30 minutes, the scores of the two teams began to pull apart
“64:56”
“72:60”
“80:63”
The score was finally fixed at 88:69, and Jida High School won the third place Shenyang 31 Middle School by 19 points. Holding a considerable initiative, although Shenyang No. 31 Middle School has the home advantage in the next game, it will dig a deep pit for itself after the first game, and it will become very difficult to climb out in the next game.
"Damn, it's really not covered, it seems that the victory over Nanyang is not an accident at all, this team is really strong!" After watching the game, Zhuo screamed in surprise.
"How do you say Wu Sheng fought with them?"
"What bullshit Wusheng? I think it's a victory that is not a martial arts. If you want to say us, we think about it! Xia Jun emphasized the words "we Siyuan", obviously still holding a grudge against the game three days ago.
"If you fight with us, I think you should fight with us for five or five waves! Maybe it's the champion of the year. ”
"But seriously, I really have to fight with Wusheng, it seems that in addition to us, there are a lot of dark horses this year!"
"However, it has nothing to do with us, let's wait for next year!" Zhuo put his hands behind his head and fell to the sofa, and said helplessly.
"yes, it's all about us!" Xia Jun said and turned off the TV.
Thousands of miles away in Guangzhou, Wu Sheng and Guangzhou 22 Middle School also quickly had a result, Guangzhou 22 Middle School in the second half of the performance was extremely tenacious, Gao Youjun's performance needless to say, a single game to score the highest score of 43 points in this competition, so that Currien was so angry that he gritted his teeth, in addition to 9 assists, 10 rebounds, 3 steals, 3 blocks of all-round performance. plus the 30 points contributed by Jiang Mingjun and Zhao Zongpeng. And Wu Sheng may have been fighting too hard in the game with Siyuan three days ago, resulting in a lack of physical strength, and he didn't get up in the second half. He fought with Wu Sheng until overtime, but overtime became the world of Sui Chengan and Wang Linzhou, and the two scored 11 of the 13 points in overtime. In the end, they won another tough battle away with a 96-91 away game.
