Chapter 36: Battle of the Raptors (3)

Ka Zhima said: "Judging from my understanding of Li Changgeng, he doesn't seem to be such a flamboyant person, even if it is to boost morale, he should not make such a provocative move." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Katerina vs. Los Angeles match Li Chang Gung played against him for forty minutes. No matter how fierce the confrontation was, he didn't make any aggressive moves, and he didn't have a single foul in the whole game. Near the end of the game, if he hadn't desperately avoided his right foot, Li Changgeng would still be lying in the hospital by now. Also, although he is known as the NCAA champion, he is only 16 years old, if he does not have extraordinary energy, can the Los Angeles players be so happy with him? Ka Sesame said that there was a pause, and the meaning behind it was self-evident: there must be some extraordinary reason for him to act like this.

The crowd fell into deep thought. Yin Lunyu bowed his head slightly and said, "In all fairness, Li Changgeng is indeed very generous. Such an active provocation is indeed somewhat strange. Turning his gaze to Kasesame, "Do you see the reason?" ”

Ka Sesame hesitated for a moment and said, "I just noticed that his steps seemed to be a little sluggish at the end, and his socks were too high today by the standards of basketball players!" ”

He's hurt? Such a thought flashed through everyone's minds at the same time. All of you here are extremely smart people, and naturally you won't be able to hear the off-string sound of the sesame seeds. Socks too high? Basketball socks are generally not very high, and the factor of sliding during sports is generally only a little higher than the upper of the shoe. If you have bandages on your feet, the only way to hide them is to wear other socks. The scene in the final moments of the Los Angeles vs. Katrina match flashed through everyone's minds, could it be that he was injured at that time?

The second half was about to start and both teams were back on the pitch. Everyone's eyes fell on the socks on Li Changgeng's feet, and sure enough, his socks were particularly high.

In the center of the court, looking up at the high ceiling of the gymnasium, Li Changgeng took a deep breath. Eyes fell on the chronograph board, the second half was about to begin, and finally the last twenty minutes.

The right foot has regained sensation, and during the intermission, Li Changgeng avoided everyone and secretly massaged in the toilet. There is absolutely no problem with holding it up for another twenty minutes.

"Flute!" The referee's whistle blows.

The second half of the game is finally about to begin.

"Now is the real game!" The Raptors players had confident expressions on their faces, as if they said to Li Changgeng. yes, the second half was the real game. Raptors, let's fight it out.

Jumping the ball, hitting two huge figures at the same time to snatch the falling basketball, one hand hit the basketball first, and the ball flew quickly to the right - that was Pierce's position. Jump ball results in heroin victory.

The basketball flew high and flew towards the player at the front of the pack - I don't know when Pinoe had already reached the three-point line in Los Angeles. Pulling his legs and chasing after Li Changgeng tightly, he followed closely. Pinault grabbed the ball, stepped into the three-point line in Los Angeles, jumped up, and wanted to shoot. Li Changgeng jumped up from behind and slapped the basketball he held high with his right hand.

"Smack!" The basketball suddenly disappears, and a figure in the penalty area grabs the bouncing basketball and sends it to the basket - heroin!

So fast! Pierce, Pinol, Heroin, these three work so well together.

Five seconds into the game, at 39:39, the Raptors tied the score.

Damn, Los Angeles is attacking, and Li Changgeng wants to return the color. Dribbling the ball across the halfcourt, quickly flashing past Pierce, targeting Mozart under the basket, the position is really good! A straight ball, the basketball flew straight at Mozart through the cracks. Mozart grabbed the ball, jumped up and prepared to shoot, "Smack!" "Hit a giant palm and knock the basketball off the ground and fly to the sidelines - heroin.

A blue figure quickly confiscated the ball, Raptors player! It's Gongtian Ichi.

"Attack!" Pierce quickly rushed out with a soft shout, not knowing when the basketball in Gongtian's hand had reached his hand.

"Hurry back to defense!" shouted loudly to order the team members to return to defense, and Li Changgeng desperately followed behind Pierce. At the three-point line, Li Changgeng caught up; There is a forbidden area in front of him, and he can't let him shoot, and Li Changgeng is desperately rushing forward with the force under his feet. "Smack!" A shadow hit the ground and flew back from under Li Changgeng's crotch, passing?

Before he could recover from his stunned shock, there was a roar behind him, and the basketball drew an arc and flew into the basket, turning his head to look back, it was Pinore.

"Flute!" The referee's whistle sounded, "The white No. 7 hitter fouls, plus a free throw!" Harris raised his right hand, his grim face full of disbelief at this time.

What just happened? When did Pierce see Pinoeil following behind? Foul on a beater? How did Pinault get the ball into the basket? Li Changgeng was shocked in his heart.

"Huh!" The basketball landed safely in the hoop. The score was 42:39, and the Raptors led by three points.

"It's okay, everyone stabilize and Los Angeles will give them a goal!" Holding his right hand high, Li Changgeng said loudly to the players. The basketball in his hand controls the ball in his hand unhurriedly, and his steps move forward without hurrying or slowing. You have to be calm and control the rhythm first.

The team calmed down, and Harris regained his composure, his handsome face still having a cool expression.

That's it, let's start the counteroffensive. Speeding up the dribble, Li Changgeng arrived at the Raptors' halfcourt. Pierce was in the way, and Koda was in the way. What's going on? On the inside line of the Raptors, heroin, Kachir, and Pinault stuck to the restricted area, and Mozart and Paul were blocked out.

Beethoven, no one defended Beethoven, the basketball in his hand suddenly accelerated, and the basketball passed to Beethoven from the crack in the human slit.

There's no one to defend, shoot the basket quickly! Beethoven catches the ball, jumps, raises his hand, shoots? A figure stands tall in front of him - Pinore! When did he get there?

No, there was no chance, Beethoven hit the pass, "Smack!" "The floorball basketball passed to Harris. What, where did Gongtian Yi appear. Harris didn't get a chance to shoot.

"Pass it over!" Li Changgeng shouted loudly, and Harris passed the ball behind his back, "Smack!" "The ball is in hand. The moment he received the ball, Li Changgeng had already formulated an offensive strategy, and one Pierce was not enough to block Li Changgeng. The ball is in the hand, the feet move quickly, what, another person stands in the way - Pinore!?

Looking at the others, heroin, Kachir, and Gongtianichi, when did the Raptors' interior line change to these three? What is it? Regional triangular defense? There is no time to think about it, time is running out for the offensive. Two people are trapped, and there is always one person you can't defend.

Protecting the basketball in his hand, Li Changgeng turned quickly, and the afterglow of his eyes took the situation on the court into his eyes, and in a blink of an eye, Li Changgeng had already formulated a strategy. This time, Li Changgeng wants to make you unable to separate.

"Smack!" The basketball was suddenly put into his hand, and the fast-moving figure suddenly stopped bouncing high, and raised the basketball in his hand, do you want to shoot the basket? Pinor Pearce jumped up and completely blocked the angle of the shot with four hands. It's just for you to be like this, "Smack! The basketball flew under the feet of both of them to the right side of the penalty area, where Harris was waiting.

The situation is four against three. Beethoven on the outside has reached the bottom right corner, and there is no one to defend! Harris's basketball was passed to Beethoven. Golden opportunity. Raise his hand, shoot the basket, Beethoven shoots a three-pointer. The basketball flew towards the basket.

"Smack!" Hit a hand, and the basketball was hit to the ground - Gongtian Ichi! When did he get over there?

It's too late to be shocked, the basketball on the ground has been grabbed by Pinore, "Hurry back to defense!" Li Changgeng shouted loudly, and at the same time quickly ran back - Pierce was already running.

The Los Angeles team members were woken up by Li Changgeng with a loud yell, and quickly ran back. Mozart got to the basket, Paul returned to the box, Harris and Beethoven were also in place, and the Raptors had no chance to break quickly.

The Raptors ball was handed to Pinor, Harris desperately defended, and the ball in Pinole's hand was thrown high, was it a shot? No, it's passing. Heroin? Such a signal quickly flashed in Li Changgeng's heart. "Mozart, watch the heroin!" Li Changgeng shouted desperately.

It was too late, a figure under the basket jumped up, grabbed the basketball in his hand, and "Boom!" "The hoop shook violently -- hit the catch and slam dunk. The figure fell from the basket, and sure enough, it was heroin.

44:39。

The Raptors quickly returned to defense, leaving the Los Angeles players with shocked faces on their faces. Harris should have completely blocked Pinoe for that ball just now. Even so, the heroin under the basket was too well timed! It works so well together! Even Li Changgeng couldn't help but have such an exclamation in his heart.

Lowering his head and grabbing the basketball bouncing on the ground, Li Changgeng stood outside the bottom line.

"Don't panic, there's no way to get that ball out of the way. Steady down, Los Angeles score first! Try to keep a calm tone, Li Changgeng shouted loudly.

The players regained their composure, and Harris received the ball and passed it to Li Changgeng. Unhurriedly controlling the basketball in his hand, Li Changgeng quickly reflected on the Raptors' defense in his mind. Regional triangular defense?

"Captain, Harris!" Li Changgeng stopped Beethoven and Harris, who were running towards the Los Angeles position, "You two go to the outside line this time, and Li Changgeng will pass the ball to you." Beethoven and Harris nodded without hesitation.

Two shooters on the outside, this time it's up to you how you deal with it.

"Huh!" The ball is passed to Beethoven, Gongtian Ichi! Harris had no one to defend and Beethoven quickly passed the ball to Harris. Pinore in front of him suddenly lost his tracks, and in the blink of an eye, he was already in front of Harris.

There is only one Pierce left in front, pass it to Li Changgeng!

No, Pinoe blocked the way of the pass and Harris couldn't get the ball out of the way with several feints. "Hurry up and help!" Li Changgeng moved quickly to try to dodge Pierce, who was clinging to the defense, while commanding loudly. Paul went to support but got the ball but was blocked by Cachier.

"Smack!" Under the pressure of Cachier, Paul finally did not concede the ball, and the basketball returned to Li Changgeng again. There was a shadow in front of him, and there were still two people in front of Li Changgeng - Pierce and Gong Tianyi.

It's back to square one.

This time, the Raptors' defense was finally seen. Triangle two-man defense? No, Li Changgeng doesn't remember that the joint defenders can run outside the three-point line to mark people. Triangle pinch? Why weren't the other players in front of them two when they got the ball? This tactic is not at all something that can be seen in any textbook. This is simply a unique tactic designed by the Raptors against Los Angeles. Contain Li Changgeng's cut and shot basket with a two-person pinch defense, and then suppress the rest of the Los Angeles team with one-on-one pressing and marking.

It's simply impossible, are there six of them on the Raptors? Of course, the Raptors can't have six people, but the excellent tacit understanding, the constant filling, and the round-robin exchange of opponents The Raptors miraculously did this.

One-on-two, Li Changgeng has no way to break through and shoot the basket; One-on-one, facing an opponent whose skills are a step above him, the Los Angeles players do not have much room to turn around.

"Smack!" Just when Li Changgeng was meditating on countermeasures in his heart, the basketball in his hand was intercepted by someone - Pierce.

"Back to defense, quick back to defense!" Desperately rushing back, Li Changgeng shouted loudly for his teammates to return to defense. The Raptors rushed to the Los Angeles position, and it was still Pierce who was in the front of the ball.

Back under the basket, Li Changgeng blocked in front of Pierce, waved his hand impermeably, and kept forcing the basketball in Pierce's hand, so that he couldn't stabilize and observe the position of his teammates and pass the ball out.

The teammates finally rushed back, but the Raptors team members had already arrived. "Back!" A cry rang out behind Pierce, "Bang! Two hurried dribbles, and the moment Pierce turned, the basketball passed out from behind him. It was Pinault who caught the ball.

"Harris, stop him and don't let him shoot."

Pinoe didn't shoot, dribbling towards the inside and Harris was broken! Paul hurriedly filled in the position, "Smack! "The basketball bounced off the ground and into Kachir's hand. Cachiel raised his hand to shoot, but Harris, who was in the spot, was able to block the front.

"Huh!" There was no shot and the ball was passed to Pinore. Pierce ran the position, and Li Changgeng shouted loudly while clinging to his side, "Captain......"

Beethoven stepped in and Pinault didn't shoot. "Smack!" With a crisp sound, Gongtian on the outside caught the ball, jumped up, raised his hand to shoot the basket, and the basketball went into the frame.

The score is 47:39.

From the outside, to the inside, and from the inside to the outside, the Raptors' offense flowed smoothly without the slightest pause, and it was unstoppable if it was unstoppable. Li Changgeng, who was dragged by Pierce, could only watch the basketball go into the basket.

Look at the players in Los Angeles again, everyone has nothing but shock on their faces! They completely blew the Raptors away.

"Pause!" made a decision immediately, and Li Changgeng immediately gestured to Leonard on the sidelines.

"Flute!" The referee's whistle blows.

In the second half, the score was 47:39. In less than three minutes, the Raptors played a 10-0 score.

The stadium roared, the cheers of the Raptors fans, and the buzzing of the general audience made the stadium noisy.

The players' rest area was indeed silent at this point. Long......

"It's scary, is this the real strength of the Raptors?" The stunned players of several teams seemed to only say this one sentence.

Yin Lunyu, Kardashian, Ka Sesame, Zhao Tong, and even Cardenshi, who didn't know the most powerful, were silent at this time, and their faces were full of shock.

For a long time, Ka Sesame stroked his forehead with his right hand, as if wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, and whispered as if he was talking to himself: "It's really strong, Raptors." As the captain of several of the best teams in the country, as one of the top players in the country, he saw better than the average spectator or even his teammates what the quality of the Raptors team in front of him meant.

It was as if the others had begun to regain their ability to speak at this moment.

Yin Lunyu: "The Raptors really live up to their reputation, their strength is stronger than Los Angeles imagined, and they are a step up from last year's Raptors." ”

Kardashian: "Compared to the first half, they were like two people! ”

"I can't believe it!" The arrogant Zhao Tong was shocked at the moment, "Is this the Raptors team that played against Los Angeles?" Damn, they didn't use all their strength at all, didn't they take Los Angeles into their eyes at all! Zhao Tong suddenly felt a sense of humiliation in his heart at this moment.

And Carden's eyes are completely focused on the rest area in Los Angeles at the moment, where Li Changgeng is arranging tactics for the players in Los Angeles.

Lucas and Copo were also surprised, and both fell silent at the same time. The two foreign lads sitting next to them also seemed to be thinking about something at this time.

"The most terrifying thing is not the strength of the Raptors!" Lucas, "but their tactics." It's not a marker, it's not a joint defense, it's not a triangle attack, it's not a triangle defense, this is simply a tactic designed for the Los Angeles team, and it's basically to deal with Li Changgeng's carefully drilled lineup.

"It's not the smartest, it's not the best, it's the best tactic against Los Angeles. Except for the Los Angeles team, Li Changgeng can't think of any other team that is qualified to suffer. ”

Ke Bo nodded and said, "In the past two months, they have been training hard with Los Angeles as an imaginary enemy, and finally it is not without gains." This set of tactics should have been specially drilled for Li Changgeng. The rest of the NCAA doesn't have to go through that much trouble at all. I am afraid that the situation of the game will turn around. ”

Lucas didn't speak, much less retorted. Strength is better than all debates, and at this time, he can't talk nonsense with his neck stalked after all. The confidence in Los Angeles and Li Changgeng was shaken in front of the strength of the Raptors.

The two foreigners next to him, Mike and Jason, although they understood the conversation between the two of them, did not say anything.

Raptors coach's side.

Smith was the first to break the silence, speaking in a distinctively foreign Chinese that was hard to hear the emotion in his tone. "That No. 24 in Los Angeles is a lion, and the Los Angeles team is a team with a male lion leading a group of wild wolves, but their opponent is a team made up of a group of tigers," Smith said. The Lions were trapped by the Tigers, the Wolves were no match for the Tigers, and the Los Angeles team was in trouble. The metaphor is very vivid, but the two people next to him have no interest in ridicule or admiration.

The Raptors coach had a solemn expression and said quietly: "It depends on whether the Los Angeles team has a way to break this dilemma!" ”

The camera returns to the rest area in Los Angeles.

In the rest area, throwing away the towel in his hand, Li Changgeng stood up and turned to face the players on the bench. The crowd apparently hasn't recovered from the blow they just had.

"Everybody's got their heads up!" Facing some frustrated teammates, Li Changgeng said lightly, "They all raised their heads and looked at Li Changgeng." The Raptors are really strong, better than any opponent in Los Angeles. Even stronger than the Raptors seen on last night's footage. But these Los Angeles people should have been mentally prepared last night, shouldn't they?

"Raise your heads. Being blocked, blocked, or even unable to score half a point, these are not shameful things. Because the Raptors are just that strong. There is no second such strong team in the country. Maybe this time next year, Los Angeles can reach that height, but now Los Angeles is really a lot worse. That's just the way it is. Li Changgeng's words seemed to be hitting everyone's morale, how could any coach admit that his team was not as good as his opponent at this time. But there is no way to do it, the huge strength gap is in front of us, and the strength of the Raptors has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of every player in Los Angeles. At this time, the only way to use the strategy of mourning soldiers is to put yourself in a weak position, and everyone can let go of their hands and feet.

"Boss!" Mozart looked at Li Changgeng in disbelief. Apparently he was confused by Li Changgeng.

Li Changgeng waved his hand to stop him: "I know what you have to say." With such a strong opponent, is Los Angeles going to give up the game? No, absolutely not. It's because the opponent is the Raptors, it's because they're so tough, that Los Angeles has to work harder. Los Angeles is already the second-best team in the country, and it doesn't make sense to beat many other teams, and there is only one goal to move forward, which is the Raptors. In this game, Los Angeles may lose, but also Los Angeles have a chance to win. Aren't there many examples of the weak beating the strong on the basketball court? Los Angeles is in front of us with an opportunity to make history and write a classic.

"The Raptors' defense, while strong, is not yet invulnerable. Although their attack was sharp, it was not impossible to stop.

"Taking a step back, even if they lose the game, Los Angeles has no regrets, because the Raptors are already stronger than Los Angeles.

"I have only one request for you: from now on, forget about winning or losing, come out with the momentum of Los Angeles, and give full play to the strength of each and every one of you. Los Angeles is a little worse than the Raptors only in terms of technology, and the fighting spirit must not be lost to the other party. Even if they were going to lose, Los Angeles would have to let the Raptors know that Los Angeles is absolutely different from their previous opponents. If any of you loses the fighting spirit of the game, Li Changgeng will replace him as soon as possible. The stadium is equal to the battlefield, and there is no need for cowardly warriors on the battlefield. As long as you are on the pitch for a minute, you have to keep your fighting spirit strong.
