Chapter 22: Jiang Feng is injured
The Fairy Lake Arena, which has only a few people, has experienced a thrilling duel and has returned to calm again. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info carrying the lost Zeya school bus and slowly driving towards Zeya.
"Coach, I'm sorry!" The always naughty Feyton lowered his head, and the last ball he had just missed was still clearly in front of him.
"It's not your fault!" Lu Feng glanced at Feyton, looked forward, stroked the other party's head and said, "Aton, you performed very well today." ”
"Aton, as the captain, even if I have to bear the mistake, it should be me." Zhou Tai interjected on the side: "Coach, it was I who failed to lead the team to victory!" ”
"And me!" An Tianguan, who scored 35 points, smiled and said dullly.
"And me!" The rest of the people came forward.
Zhou Tai, who has always wanted to care for and lead the team like a big brother, Yao Afu, who works silently, An Tianguan, who hopes to lead Zeya to win the championship, Shi Mi, who has a low-key defense and no complaints, and Feyton, who is occasionally naughty but refuses to admit defeat.
Lu Feng silently glanced at the five people, and at this moment, his eyes suddenly moistened.
"Coach, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that Lu Feng seemed to be choked, Feyton asked.
"Coach!" The others shouted.
"You stinky boys, you want me to cry, don't you?" Lu Feng held back tears.
At this time, Lu Feng realized that even if he lost talented players like Wu Zhenyang and Ling Qingyu, what would he do? He seems to understand the true meaning of coaching, not to get super players, but to fight hard with these hot-blooded teenagers who have been fighting together with him, and to taste the ups and downs, which is the meaning of his coaching.
"Well, we haven't lost yet!" Lu Feng put on a serious face as a coach again, "In the next game, you all give me twelve points of spirit." Only win but not lose, you know? ”
"Got it, Coach!" Everyone shouted in unison, then looked at each other and smiled again.
In the first game, Fuxian finally pressed Zeya all over the court, and ended with a big three-pointer one step outside the three-point line of Fayton, and Fuxian won the victory.
After the game, Fuxian raised the school and jubilated, and although Jiang Feng, who invested in the key ball, was forced to receive treatment due to the recurrence of his foot injury later, he became a hero of Fuxian who surpassed Wu Zhenyang and Ling Qingyu for a while.
The final score was 94:92, and Fuxian narrowly won the victory with Jiang Feng's key two points.
Full field data:
Fuxian University: Gao Tong 14 points, 14 rebounds and 2 hats, Jiang Feng 18 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, Wu Zhenyang 20 points, 8 rebounds, 11 assists and 1 hat, Ling Qingyu 25 points and 3 assists, Ji Gongyan 6 points and 5 assists, Wu Chao 5 points, Miyazaki 6 points.

……
Fuxian Infirmary.
Gao Tong, who had his hands in his pockets, looked out the window in a daze, and remembered the hug between himself and Zhou Tai after the game, and the performance of the other party made him impeccable.
"Zhou Tai, I didn't expect that you now already have the strength to compete with me!"
However, there is another thing that worries Gao Tong, that is, Jiang Feng who is being examined in the ward.
"Squeak!" The door was pushed open, and Coach K hurriedly greeted him, asking worriedly, "Doctor Zhong, how is his foot injury?" ”
"I've checked and he's had an ankle injury before, and this time it's not serious, but it's a new injury and an old one." Dr. Chung was silent, "You can't participate in strenuous exercise until your injuries have healed. ”
Suddenly, Lao K's heart was empty with a sense of loss, and he smiled reluctantly and sent Dr. Zhong away.
Except for a few substitutes Lao K asked them to go back first, the basketball team's starters were basically present, and a group of people followed Lao K into the ward.
"Coach!" As soon as Jiang Feng spoke, a sharp pain in his ankle hit, and the pain made his face hideous.
"Alright, you lie down!" Old K, who was dressed in a black jacket, looked at his beloved apprentice deeply through his glasses, and if it wasn't for his key shot, it would be difficult to say whether the game would have been won or lost.
Jiang Feng lay loosely on the pillow before asking: "Coach, I ...... for the second game next week."
"For the sake of your health, you should not participate for the time being." Old K said decisively.
Jiang Feng wanted to say something, but the foot injury made him feel more than capable of strength, so he didn't speak.
"Because of your key goal, now the whole school worships you to death, and it's time for us to show off in the next game." Ji Gongyan said with a smile.
Chen Wenli, Qin Qing and the others all smiled.
Jiang Feng touched his head in disdain.
"You take care of your foot injury now, don't worry about the team." Old K said softly.
"With the captain here, it'll be fine." Chen Wenli said to Jiang Feng.
A few words to appease the river wind, and then went out one after another.
"Take care of your injuries, everyone is waiting for you to come back early!" Gao Tong, who was about to go out in the end, said to Jiang Feng.
"Hmm!" Jiang Feng nodded gratefully, "Captain, you have to come on!" ”
Gao Tong nodded silently and walked out of the ward, leaving only Qin Qing and Chen Wenli to take care of him.
……
Fuxian, who won the first victory, was very lively today, the whole building of the boys' dormitory went to bed late, and the boys collectively had a party, and the sound of Coke Sprite was heard all night.
Although Jiang Feng has become the hottest hero, the performances of Wu Zhenyang and Ling Qingyu can be regarded as barely worthy of the expectations of the outside world.
In the first class on Monday, when Ling Qingyu first entered the classroom, the whole class was talking about it, and the girls became more and more inexplicably fond of this boy who was both cold and good at playing.
There is a campus-level celebrity in the class, and he is a hot basketball team player, Ling Qingyu has almost become a class treasure, and then he can enjoy the privilege of sleeping.
Ling Qingyu doesn't have any other hobbies except basketball, he only likes to sleep, and sometimes when the sleeping insects attack, he can sleep for a class.
The teacher in the class learned from the outside world that the boy was a member of the school basketball team participating in the basketball league that was being held, so he also turned a blind eye and did not interfere too much.
With the first victory, this year's basketball team is the strongest in the history of Fuxian and is also recognized by the whole school. Fu Xian was full of confidence that he could defeat Zeya, and even if he learned that Jiang Feng was injured, no one was worried. Because of Gao Tong, Wu Zhenyang and Ling Qingyu, the appearance of this trio is too strong, and there are good substitutes, so that many people get carried away.
In this situation, only the well-versed old Coach K could detect the clue and called Shen Qian to discuss how to play the next game.
Jiang Feng is afraid that it will be absolutely difficult to participate in the second game, and Zeng Hou has no choice to replace him.
This creates a problem, the latter is not as good as the former, both in terms of offensive style and tactical execution. What's more, Zeng Hou's physical strength is as overstretched as his figure, which even Lao K doesn't know how much impact it will have on the team, so he can only take one step at a time. In order to reduce the drawbacks of this, just in case, he made it important to mention several sets of tactics mainly from the outside, so as to be in case of emergency.
Lu Feng was pleasantly surprised when he learned the news of Jiang Feng's injury, from the first game, he had already learned that although Fu Xian had increased the proportion of fast attacks due to the addition of Wu Zhenyang and Ling Qingyu, positional warfare still accounted for half of the tactics, and Jiang Feng and Ji Gongyan's blocking and dismantling was one of the most important and most successful tactics, obviously with the injury of the former, their positional warfare attack would also be greatly affected.
For this reason, it was not out of schadenfreude and fear of Fu Xian, but because of the desire for victory, Zeya was secretly quite surprised. Coupled with the regretful defeat in the first game, Zeya gossip spread, and the whole school vowed to defeat Fuxian in the second game to save face. Therefore, the basketball team is also working hard and preparing to win back a victory at Liuyun Arena.
In the confident anticipation of the two schools, the week flashed by. The second game will be played at Zeya's Liuyun Arena.
The night before the start of the game, the loss in the first game still put a lot of pressure on An Tianguan, so he stayed alone in the Liuyun Arena, letting the sweat drip down.
He practiced for another two hours.
An Tianguan's signature tentative step is already perfect, and he has just repeated this move, whether it is three points or two points, it is extremely accurate.
However, there has always been a confusion with him, lingering.
When An Tianguan got off the field and sat on the bench, he saw a boy walking in from the entrance, it was Zhou Tai.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the other party, Zhou Tai was slightly stunned, and then walked over to this side.
"Tianguan, it's going to be a game tomorrow, why are you still practicing today?" Sitting on the bench next to each other, Zhou Tai asked.
Wiping the sweat with a towel, An Tianguan's slightly pursed mouth showed a thick smile, and said, "It's still early, and there's nothing to do, so I'll come and practice." ”
"Melon, it's delicious!" took out the cut fruit in the bag he brought aside, An Tianguan picked up a petal and ate it, and then handed it to the other party.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhou Tai's wide and thick palm picked up a petal and ate it, but his eyes looked at An Tianguan.
The melon was so sweet that it turned into honey in the mouths of the two of them.
But in Zhou Tai's eyes, this seems to be relieving the pressure in An Tianguan's heart. In the past, the boy in front of him would always show a melon-like smile, but this week he has obviously laughed less often.
"Tianguan, you don't have to put all the pressure on yourself, and me." The close relationship between the two still made Zhou Tai outspoken and caring.
Stunned to look at Zhou Tai, An Tianguan squeezed out a thick smile and said, "Of course not, you are the captain of the team!" ”
Although he said this, An Tianguan did not really have a calm attitude in his eyes.
In the two games he lost to Jin Yuan last year, although he still scored well, he lost to the former's team basketball firmly. And what about yourself? It's more like a scoring machine that can only score points, which makes An Tianguan begin to question himself. He wants to get better, lead the team to victory, and even change himself for it.
Not only that, An Tianguan has always aimed to surpass Zhan Bolun, who has the reputation of being the first high school student in the history of Doureer University, but last year, the other party led Durer to successfully defend the title with his all-round skills and leadership ability, creating the second two-consecutive championship hegemony since Beilu, which has been in the limelight in the university world. This made An Tianguan even more suspicious of his style of play, isn't it enough to rely on scoring alone to lead the team forward?
In addition, this time he lost to Fuxian, a college with Wu Zhenyang, an all-round basketball star, and this tangled doubt became a knot in his heart.
Zhou Tai is also quite helpless, the other party's role in Zeya is undoubted, which can be seen from the fact that he joined the team last year, and the team made history and entered the top 16.
"Skycrown, you know what? From high school to college, I have always been in the shadow of Gao Tong, and his strength has always been stronger than mine. Suddenly, Zhou Tai changed the topic and talked about it as if it was a thing of the past, so that An Tianguan also listened carefully.
"But I never gave up on surpassing him. Although I have to admit that I am still inferior to him now, I am not discouraged. Zhou Tai's eyes suddenly lit up, "If I even give up the heart of the final victory, then I will already be defeated without a fight!" ”
"Defeat without a fight!" An Tianguan's tiger body was shocked, as if he was thinking.
"Tianguan, we can't control the result, all we can control is our own heart." Zhou Tai said meaningfully. He knew the pressure and worry in the other party's heart, but he could only talk about it.
"I'm leaving, you should go back and rest early." Patting An Tianguan's shoulder, Zhou Taiqi walked towards the exit.
An Tianguan thought for a while, and in a daze, he picked up the remaining melon and put it in his mouth, chewing it slowly, enjoying the icy and sweet taste.
Maybe I have distorted my attitude towards basketball, just like I can't feel this wonderful melon, and I can't feel the joy that basketball brings to me.
What did you play basketball for? Don't you just love the thrill of scoring? But now in pursuit of victory, it seems that I no longer want to be my original self.
Sighing in a low voice, An Tianguan was so entangled.
He got back up, held the ball tightly in front of his chest with both hands, walked to the three-point line, and wanted to shoot a three-pointer, but suddenly wanted to dunk again.
Casual dunk? Or continue to practice scoring more efficient threes?
In the end, An Tianguan still chose three points, but he didn't score, only the sound of basketball hitting the ground and hitting the wooden floor echoed in the empty Liuyun Arena.
At the entrance of the players' tunnel, a dim light barely illuminated the area, and Lu Feng stood at the entrance of the tunnel and watched An Tianguan in the arena, who was still practicing three-point, low post, tentative step and emergency stop.
In Lu Feng's heart, An Tianguan's ability is no less than that of Ling Qingyu and Wu Zhenyang of Fuxian, and he has always adhered to the goal of making him a superstar to demand the other party, so he unconsciously exerted a lot of expectations and pressure on the other party, which he has only felt a little bit in the past few days.
Lu Feng always thought that the other party was like his iconic intimate smile, which could melt all the pressure, until he listened to the conversation between the two just now, he was shocked and woke up, saying that the other party was just a sophomore newcomer who had just joined the team, and perhaps the love and expectation he gave had become the pressure and shackles that limited his play.
"Maybe it's me!" Standing there quietly, Lu Feng muttered inwardly.
