"Don't be discouraged, senior, you are our captain, if you also lose your fighting spirit, the team will collapse. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Liu Bei patted Gongsun Chan on the shoulder and encouraged Gongsun Chan. "We have to figure out how to suppress the opponent's attack, and we have to be mentally prepared to lose points before we think of a way, which is also an important part of the game." Liu Bei said.

The situation of being beaten will not change because of a word, here Liu Yan and Zhu Jun's two layups were blocked by Sai Shuo and Duan Jue respectively, and after changing sides, Duan Jue forced a goal under the two of them at the bottom of the basket. (13-6) The two attacks of the division team were fruitless, and Sai Shuo of the Ten Standing Guards seized the opportunity to slam Huangfu Song on the head. (15-6) The difference suddenly widened to 9 points!

"Beep!" The referee's whistle blew, the team called a timeout, and several players held their knees panting, almost falling down.

"Everyone's worked hard." Coach Lu Zhi beckoned Kong Ming and Zou Jing to take water and towels and distribute them to everyone. "I know very well that the opponent's feeling of pressing makes it very uncomfortable, and to deal with their inside attack, you need to shrink the perimeter defense to pinch the inside, and there is no way to deal with their inside for the time being, but this is also part of the game. There's only one way we can turn things around, would you like to hear it? ”

"Huh?" The players who were resting were stunned when they heard the coach say, and some of the players forgot to drink the water when they twisted the caps of the bottles of water.

"Kong Ming..."Coach Lu Zhi suddenly turned to look at him.

"Yes, Coach!" Kong Ming was a little stunned when he was suddenly stopped by the coach.

"Guys, wait a minute, I'll send Kong Ming on the court, I believe everyone's perimeter shooting ability is obvious to everyone, he has always believed in everyone, I hope everyone trusts him, passes the ball to him, and creates opportunities for him to score." Coach Lu Zhi said to everyone seriously.

"Yes!" Everyone answered unanimously.

"I've become the main scorer, but, coach, I've just practiced basketball, I'm afraid..." Kong Ming was a little flattered and interrupted the speech of the coach and his teammates.

"Kong Ming, now is not the time to be humble." Coach Lu Zhi said slowly. "The opponent's attack on the inside is a big problem for us and if we don't find a way to score on the counter-attack as soon as possible, we will be more passive and it will be more difficult to recover. So, what is needed now is to create more scoring chances so that we can recover what we have lost. Kong Ming, your shooting score is likely to be an important weapon for us to turn the tide in this section. ”

"It's... Yes!" Kong Ming understood and replied firmly.

"But you also have to remember that the shooting in the real game is completely different from the difficulty of the usual practice, and you will feel it on the court later, and you will feel the pressure of the opponent's defense. But I'm going to tell you about it anyway because there's not much time left for us and you have to find your rhythm as soon as possible. ”

"Hey Cui Zhouping, when will Kong Ming play? Will he be able to play? Huang Yueying kept chattering anxiously in Cui Zhouping's ear.

"Help! Huang Yueying: When did you become a Tang monk? Cui Zhouping covered his ears and tried to stop Yueying from constantly yelling in his ear, and he could barely parry it and fainted. Please, Kong Ming! Hurry up and get on the field! Otherwise, I'm going to break down and run away! ”

"Oh, Kong Ming is going to play." Xu Shu on the side suddenly said to Yueying.

"Really?" Yueying immediately let go of the crumbling Cui Zhouping and hurriedly looked at the court. Sure enough, Kong Ming was doing a simple warm-up exercise on the sidelines, and he was going to play.

"Great! Come on Kong Ming! Come on Kong Ming!" Yueying shouted loudly to cheer for Kong Ming. Her voice also caused some of the surrounding audience to turn their heads to look at her.

"Hey, be quiet! That's rude! Cui Zhouping hurriedly covered Yueying's mouth and smiled and apologized to the people around him.

"Beep!" The referee, Mr. Fa Zheng, blew the whistle for the game.

For the first time, a substitution was introduced on the sidelines. "The expeditionary division asked for a replacement, and Zhuge Kongming replaced Huangfu Song!"

"Come on!" After high-fives with Zou Jing and Huangfu Song, Kong Ming stepped into the venue of the official basketball game for the first time, and he was both excited and a little nervous, not knowing what it was really like to be on the court?

"The opponent has changed, it seems that we have been very successful in suppressing them, coach, do we want to make a substitution?" The substitute of the Ten Standing Servants asked Coach He Jin.

"Let's take a look at it first." He Jin crossed his hands on his chest. "Wait for me to see the strength of the person who came in."

The division team kicked off, Kong Ming played against the opponent's small forward Cao Jie, and in the opponent's half-court position, Kong Ming was very tightly entangled by the opponent.

"Sure enough, the official game is completely different from the usual practice, the opponent's follow-up defense is very tight, and it is difficult to find a way to get rid of the opponent." Not long after he got on the court, Kong Ming already felt uncomfortable with the official game.

"Kong Ming, catch the ball!" Liu Bei suddenly passed the ball to Kong Ming on the other side, the pass distance was a little far, Kong Ming didn't react for a while, and the ball was intercepted by Cao Jie in front of him. Fortunately, Cao Jie also made a mistake when passing, and the ball was still on the side of the divisional team.

"I'm sorry, Abei, I didn't catch that ball just now." Kong Ming said apologetically.

"It's okay, it's easy to make mistakes when you first come on the field, so you have to concentrate." Liu Bei didn't blame Kong Ming, he just reminded Kong Ming.

"I see!" Kong Ming responded to Liu Bei while running to the front of the opponent. "I've got to get the shot and feel as soon as possible so I can create points." Kong Ming looked forward to it in his heart.

Gongsun Chan and Liu Bei passed and ran many times in the opponent's half, wanting to organize an attack, and Kong Ming was also constantly running to try to find a good shooting position, and finally Kong Ming found a position, and he immediately called Liu Bei to pass the ball to him. Liu Bei saw Kong Ming's position and immediately passed the ball to him, and this time Kong Ming was able to catch the ball firmly. , but the opposing defender also followed up and stopped in front of him.

"No, I'm going to have to try to shoot!" Kong Ming gritted his teeth and threw a hard shot at the opposing defender Cao Jie.

Cao Jie, who was on the opposite side, didn't seem to expect Kong Ming to shoot, although he was stunned for a moment and immediately jumped up to block, but the ball was still completely thrown by Kong Ming.

The ball was thrown, but there was no sound, Kong Ming threw a three-no-stick!

"What are you doing? Why is the substitute who just came in so ineffective? There was a lot of talk in the audience.

"Kong Ming..."Yueying's eyes were full of worry.

"Don't worry too much, there must be an adaptation period when you first play, give him a little more time." Xu Shu looked at Yueying's expression and tried to comfort Yueying.

"I hope so." Yueying sighed lightly and shifted her gaze to the court again.

"What? It's not a threat to the benches, it seems like I'm overestimating them, I'm going to make substitutions, I'm going to give my regular players a break. After Coach He Jin saw Kong Ming's shooting performance, he felt like he had taken a reassuring pill, and he thought that there was nothing to be afraid of now.

"Alas, it was so bad." Kong Ming apologized to Liu Bei while retreating.

"Don't mind Kong Ming, we need you to find the feeling of shooting as soon as possible, then we have the possibility of turning the situation around, so don't have any worries, as soon as you have the opportunity to shoot, you have to shoot!" Liu Bei responded positively to Kong Ming.

"Why do you chirp so many crooked words? No matter what you do, you will not see any hope. Hey..."Zhang Rang looked at the exchange between Liu Bei and Kong Ming, showing a look of disdain. When attacking in the front court of the division team, Zhang Rang once again easily stuffed the ball to the big forward Duan Qi on the inside.

"Crunch the defense!" Gongsun Chan shouted, and Kong Ming and Liu Bei hurriedly ran to the inside line. In an instant, Duan Jue was targeted by two or three people.

"Hmph, I thought this would happen a long time ago." Coach He Jin sneered. "So I already explained to them how to crack the joint defense when I paused just now, so you can wait and see!"

Duan Jue, who was holding the ball, passed the ball out under the joint defense of two or three people, and he actually passed it back to Zhang Rang!

"Oops! Zhang Rang's side is no longer guarded!" Liu Bei and Kong Ming could only watch as the ball passed back into Zhang Rang's hands, and they found that Zhang Rang's position was outside the three-point line!

"No one is watching, this is a great opportunity! Let me teach you how to shoot, hehe..."Zhang Rang aimed at the basket from the outside, Liu Bei and Kong Ming struggled to save, but Zhang Rang had already made an easy shot before they arrived, and his face was full of contemptuous smiles.

"Huh!" It was a three-point shot that went into the net calmly! (18-6) It is also another heavy blow to the division team, which is already in deep crisis! By this time, it was already a third of the way through the second quarter!
