Section 34 The Devil's Home Field
The two teams of centers stretch out their huge arms and compete for basketball.
Li Xin got the ball, dribbled two steps, Wang Linzhou immediately forced up, Li Xin held the ball and leaned twice, Wang Wen did not move, took a step back, changed the direction and singled the opponent. Obviously, Li Xin's excessively long holding of the ball caused Han Chongyu's dissatisfaction, and he scolded angrily: "Li Xin, what are you doing? Holding the ball for too long. ”
Li Xin half-turned around and hit the ground and passed to Yang Jinglong, who broke through with the ball, and was immediately caught by the two of them. Under the acceleration, he couldn't stop, he could only adjust his body to hook his hand to shoot, the ball hit the frame and bounced out, and the three giants of Wusheng about 2 meters jumped up together to protect their own rebounds. A quick counteroffensive was immediately launched.
"Damn it!" Li Xin was obviously not satisfied with her opening performance, and scolded herself all the way.
Wang Linzhou broke through the middle with the ball all the way, Sui Chengan and Jiang Chengyi on the left and right, and only Han Chongyu and Li Xin retreated in the Siyuan array, showing a three-on-two trend, after Wang Linzhou's left side was shaking, the ball went to the right, and the sound of the east hit the west This is its usual passing method, after the first game, Li Xin has already understood, and started first, but the opponent actually had a third change of hands, and the ball returned to the left, so that Li Xin pounced.
Shook Li Xin, there was an open field in front of him, he stopped and threw in the middle of the shot, with a change of rhythm, and the action was done in one go, which was quite beautiful and really pleasing to the eye.
"2:0" Wu Sheng opened the scoring. There was a round of applause.
Yang Jinglong didn't move when he won the ball, and quickly passed it to Han Chongyu. In a moment, the offense and defense were converted again, and Siyuan's guard group was not inferior to Wusheng's two star players in terms of speed, plus Zhuo Yifan and Michael, who had time to return to defense in the previous court, and showed a trend of four to three. The left, right, middle, and right sides are all clear direct passes, not a little fancy, but every pass has the effect of pulling the opponent, and finally pulls out the gap, Zhuo Yifan throws the ball in.
"2:2" away from the head of the Si Yuan set the record.
There was a sudden boos from the audience, and Li Xin was very uncomfortable when she heard it.
Being scored so easily by the opponent, Wu Sheng was naturally a hundred unwilling. Wang Linzhou took the ball, took it all the way, pulled Li Xin horizontally, broke into the inner line, and was immediately caught by the two people, who thought that the ball must be divided, who expected Wang Linzhou to bow his body, bypass the two of them, and then change hands in the air, staged a big move, and won a goal.
"4:2" Wu Sheng scored again, and the results off the field were completely different, and the cheers were thunderous, and he was naturally the captain who commended Wu Sheng:
"Good shot! Keep up the good work, and even take him ten points. ”
Wu Sheng's home stadium is good, and the fans' love for the team is not only an ordinary favorite, but even transformed into a kind of fanaticism. The benefits of this kind of fanaticism are self-evident, Wusheng's devil's home stadium was born from this, bringing considerable pressure to the away team, often making Wusheng invincible, but the disadvantages are often easy to be ignored under the huge halo, once there is a team to bring Wusheng quite persecution, such as the first Siyuan and Wusheng's situation, then the pressure on Wusheng under the reputation is also self-evident. This is already true on the road, and especially at home.
Compared to those opponents who are fully focused on the game and bent on picking off Wu Sheng on the road, the pressure of Wu Sheng's five-year home unbeaten run is undoubtedly heavier.
This is an impressive record, of course, but it is not easy to keep it up, especially as you go further on.
Xia Jun, who did not start today, looked around the gymnasium, where banners hung by fans were posted everywhere, and finally stopped his gaze in front of a banner. This is the answer, the answer to the Wusheng home winning streak that Han Chongyu mentioned to him before.
"Wu Sheng! The eternal king, continuing the myth of 72 consecutive home wins! The banner clearly bears this line of large letters.
"Is it the myth of an unbeaten home record in 72 high school league games??" Xia Jun rubbed his eyes to see if he was mistaken.
"In high school, we have surpassed the average team and have maintained the highest level of the national league for many years, winning the championship for five years, not losing a game in the national league for three years, and at home, we have not lost a game in five years. And the previous ten or so regional trials every year are not a problem. In terms of strength, the High School Affiliated to Beijing Sports University in the North China Division this year has been regarded as a very powerful team in recent years. Xia Jun shouted unconsciously, and Peng Chenzhi beside him explained the reason for the consecutive home wins of Wusheng.
"It turns out that this is the reason why Brother Chong Yu didn't tell me the answer, this record is really amazing, if you don't have any psychological preparation to learn such news before the game, it is indeed quite a pressure on yourself." Xia Jun thought to himself.
"And how do you know about this record?" Xia Jun asked Peng Chenzhi again.
Peng Chenzhi sneered and said, "How can this not be known? We have been witnessing this record since we were in junior high school and it has continued to grow. ”
"That's what keeps us going, and every time we see this record being renewed, whether it's a role model or an opponent in our minds, it inspires us to aim higher."
"That's why you were invincible in the three-on-three competition on Siyuan's school in the first place?"
"Not bad. In the circumstances, there wasn't a three-on-three team around us and the three of us trained behind closed doors. Treating Wu Sheng as an imaginary opponent and forcing himself to improve again and again until he was invincible in the final colonel, this is far from our goal. Or far from being Han Chongyu's goal. ”
"You know Han Chongyu, although he doesn't say much, but he has endless hopes of winning on the basketball court, when he was a first-year junior high school student, I met him for the first time, and we were all fledgling boys...... Peng Chenzhi was moved, and recounted the past between him and Han Chongyu with emotion:
"Hey, classmate, how about playing basketball together? The other venues are full. "Even if I was relatively tall since I was a child, Han Chongyu was only a little more than 1.50 meters at that time, and it didn't look like a basketball player at all, that was the first time I met him. But I didn't expect me to persuade him with good words, and actually changed back to him: "If you want to play, go to other places, if you want to play with me, defeat me first." ”
"You kid, you're quite dragged!" I thought to myself, of course I was not convinced, I was already more than 170cm tall at that time, more than half a head taller than him, so I said to him: "Isn't your breath small, come here, who is afraid of whom?" ”
In the beginning, I relied on my height advantage, scoring very easily, and I basically controlled the rebounds. At that time, Han Chongyu could be said to be vulnerable, and just after I won this competition proudly, I originally thought that he would be satisfied. Who would have expected him to snatch my basketball and threaten me, "If you don't want to, I'll pop this ball." ”
The ball was in his hand, and I felt sorry for my newly bought Spalding basketball, not to mention that it would not be difficult to win him in another game, so I agreed.
But in the second game, he improved very quickly, cleverly using his speed advantage to pass me before making a layup when he was playing against me, and when he grabbed rebounds, he also relied on the impact of rushing to grab them, or when I got the ball, he saw the right time and broke my ball. I'm very uncomfortable with his style of play. What's even more commendable is that he fights for every ball, whether it is a promising ball or a hopeless one, and whether he is ahead or behind, he is as always as always, which makes me very touched and finally loses the game.
Since then, we've become golfers, just like many golfers have known each other. Yang Jinglong and I were both attracted by the spirit of Han Chongyu, he always told us the story of the high school basketball league, about Nanyang's dominance in Shanghai, about Guangming, the impact of Tsinghua and other teams on Nanyang, and when it came to the national league, Nanyang attacked the champion of Wusheng. When it comes to Wusheng's winning streak, how many teams have come to challenge Wusheng, intending to end this record, but in the end they all failed, Wusheng has extended this record for five years, from the Lin Chengdong era to the Yao Feiran era, all the way to the current Wang Linzhou era. In the eyes of others, he is silent, but these stories with us are like treasures in his mouth, and his eyes flash with envy for them. And he always longs to enter a powerful school to realize his wishes, but when he was in high school, none of the high schools such as Nanyang, Guangming, Tsinghua, and Huili were willing to take in Han Chongyu, so he only came to Siyuan, and we followed him together to the current school.
"And now, even in an ordinary high school where the basketball tradition is not good, we are standing in the same arena as Wu Sheng,-for-tat with our opponents. This is our last year of high school, and this is the only time to make our dreams come true. Peng Chenzhi said earnestly, revealing his true feelings. Listening to his teammates, who were only one year older than him, telling his basketball story, Xia Jun seemed to feel a kind of vicissitudes. Even though he still has a year of high school career, after Han Chongyu and others quit the team, can Siyuan still think about going as far as he did in the national league this year? Is there still such good luck and champion martial arts? Is there a chance to achieve a national victory?
The time is just around the corner, and you can't afford to make any mistakes, otherwise you will regret it and regret it for life.
Han Chongyu naturally understands the true meaning of this truth, Li Xin is also working hard to realize this long-cherished wish, and everyone on the field does not want their youth to pass away with regrets. They are working hard to challenge the strong five-time champion Wusheng High School away from home:
Five minutes passed after the start of the game, and the two teams had a certain understanding of each other after the first game, and Siyuan's stubborn resistance made the situation on the field show a comparable situation.
"10:10 draw" Michael scored two more points under the basket, equalizing the score of the two teams, and neither team took advantage.
Wu Sheng's attack, obviously some viewers have begun to be dissatisfied with Wu Sheng's performance, this attack, the audience's shouts are also extra hard to shout, the rhythm is unified, shouting: "Wu Sheng!" Offensive! Wu Sheng! Wild victory! ”
The voices of more than 10,000 people in the audience finally formed a powerful impact, stimulating the nerves of the Wusheng players and impacting the hearts of the Siyuan players.
Jiang Chengyi took the pass, dribbled with a step, and shook a shot, although he didn't let Han Chongyu, who was defending him, jump, but he was still temporarily distracted, withdrew his shooting hand, and passed to He Chaoyun, the center who was required in the low post, He Chaoyun immediately got up after receiving the ball and hit the ball into the frame. Get two points.
“12:10”
After this goal, Wu Sheng also changed his previous defensive strategy, from the original half-court expanded man-to-man defense to full-court man-to-man defense, but did not use obvious pinch-and-shoot tactics. Just rely on one-on-one defensive ability to limit your players from dribbling comfortably across half the court. Wang Linzhou sat low, his legs moving sideways quickly, each time he first blocked his forward route with his opponent, and then when the opponent rejudged the changed route, Wang Linzhou had already taken the lead and could start first. After two or three rounds, Li Xin's dribbling was not smooth, and it was easy to pass the half, dribbling sideways to break through, and hoisting it high in the middle of the emergency stop to Michael in the middle position, but unexpectedly he made a halfway way to bite the gold, and Sui Chengan intercepted the ball in the air.
It's a fast attack again, Jiang Chengyi ran out, but he was afraid that Han Chongyu would be too late to chase after him.
“14:10”
Under the field, Collien put the little fingers of both hands in his mouth, blew a whistle, attracting the attention of the Wusheng players, and pointed his index finger to the opponent's side, all the players understood it, and launched a closed defense again. Not only that, but he also wrapped up the team holder, and it seems that Wu Sheng is planning to launch a wave of attacks.
Li Xin was a little unprepared for the other party's suddenness, and ran to the sideline with all her heart to avoid the opponent's bag, Jiang Chengyi and Wang Linzhou put pressure on her, Li Xin was actually forced to a dead end, one center of gravity was unstable, and one foot drew the sideline.
"Wusheng Middle School Ball Possession!"
It was her own mistake that lost the ball, Li Xin shook her head, and blamed herself a little.
The front court got the ball to attack, and the inside, outside, and inside passes, although simple but very effective, He Chaoyun just bypassed Michael, and the inside catch was a two-arm hanging basket. The legs were still intertwined, and he looked like a boy worshipping Buddha, and he let out two "hehe" smirks.
"This polar bear is really disgusting!" Zhuo angrily took the ball that fell.
"16:10" Wu Sheng has scored six points in a row. It's time to open the scores again.
Gradually began to widen the gap in the score, and the audience of Wusheng began to shout rhythmically in unison: "10 points!" 10 points! "Obviously asking Wu Sheng to extend the lead to 10 points.
Such a shout in a gymnasium with a special round structure such as Wusheng's home stadium, after the echo of the four walls, the cheers of 10,000 people sounded better than the momentum of thousands of troops. And the players on the lowest level surrounded by the sound felt the shock and deterrence of the overhead. Wu Sheng has long been experienced in a hundred battles here, so he is naturally used to it, not to mention the sound of cheering for them. And Si Yuan clearly felt a little inadequate, and the interference from outside the field at this time was stronger than any game the team had encountered before, and it became extremely difficult to devote himself to the game.
