Chapter 41: Raptors (8)
Nodding with satisfaction, Evans spoke, "Good, you didn't let me down. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info everyone's performance is worthy of the title of the strongest Raptor. And the strength of the opponent and our team believes that it did not disappoint you! ”
The Raptors were very calm, not happy or the slightest bit of surprise, calm and composed, which appropriately showed their current mood.
Pierce said calmly: "They are indeed good. So far, the score is only four points apart, and they are almost evenly matched with us. Lee Chang Gung, in particular, was even tougher than we expected, and our defense against him had little effect. It's the first time we've had such a great opponent and such a lively game. Our team has indeed lived up to our expectations for two months. However, we will win this game! ”
"Yes, we'll win!" The morale of the other Raptors players was high.
Evans nodded with satisfaction and said, "The situation is strikingly similar to that of four years ago. Our team, which is lagging behind, gradually reversed the situation of the game because of Li Changgeng's strong and unyielding alone, because of his struggle that he never gave up. Forcibly turning the tide of the game with the power of one person, with an injured body, and tenaciously pursuing victory, Li Changgeng's performance was as heroic as four years ago. Our team also burned because of him. We're a stronger opponent than any of the big teams we've played before.
"Such an opponent is worthy of our two months of hard training, and it is worthy of our Raptors to defeat them with all their might. The reason why a strong team is a strong team is not because it has won countless weak teams. The reason why the Raptors are the king of the Raptors is not because we have won so many championships. Only by defeating a truly strong enemy can it be called a strong team. Only by defeating a strong enemy like us can we be the true kings.
"Remember what I said two months ago? Defeat him, you will truly grow into a basketball master, defeat him, you will be able to step into a new realm of basketball, defeat him, you will be the real king!
"Go and defeat them with all your might!"
"Good ......" the crowd shouted, and the Raptors burned fiercely.
Both teams were boiling, both teams were burning.
"Flute!" The referee's whistle blows.
"Go on the field and go to the showdown!" We.
"Get on the field, go beat us!" Raptors.
At the last minute and 44 seconds, the game resumed.
The emotions of the spectators in the stands were also close to boiling, and the fans of the two teams kept shouting and cheering, hoping to overwhelm each other's momentum with their own shouts.
The players' area in the stands was silent. Every year when the finals come to this time, the championship is almost already in the Raptors' pocket. It was the first time that such a close score had been seen by a player on the field.
Could it be that the time is coming to overthrow the Raptors?
Lucas and Copo didn't say a word.
Raptors coaches, Min Hangyu, and Smith are silent.
The final moment is coming, and the final victory will be decided.
The Raptors kicked off the ball.
"Defend, defend!" Our team is all pressed up.
It's still the whole court marking, and it's still pressing and grabbing. Pressing it up and snatching it back is the only belief in the hearts of all our players. No longer focusing on a specific opponent, every player is constantly filling in for their teammates, and losing their opponents in the pressing.
The Raptors' ball passed from Pierce to Pinor, who was pressed to make a shot, and barely passed it to Gongtianichi. Gongtian was forced by the two people in front of him to dribble the ball and finally passed high, and heroin jumped high to get the ball.
With 18 minutes and 30 seconds left, the Raptors' ball was in the hands of heroin. The rest of the Raptors finally made their way to our position.
In front of heroin is Li Changgeng. Left? Right? Heroin held the ball in both hands, his right foot was sliding, and his huge body suddenly changed several directions in succession.
It's a pass! Heroin's right hand suddenly stretched out to the right. Moving quickly with his left foot, Li Chang Gung tried to block his pass. What the? The basketball didn't even shoot. Heroin's huge right hand was clenched, and the ball that was about to pass was firmly grasped.
"Ah......h The basketball in his right hand is raised high. Shoot the basket!
Don't let him shoot the basket! The sudden surge of consciousness instantly took over the entire brain. Don't let him shoot the basket!
"Ahh......h
Spread your hands and seal the basketball in heroin's hands.
Add heroin in your left hand, hold the ball with both hands, slam dunk!
Both hands touched the basketball in the heroin's hand, and a strong force came. You can't let him score, you can't let him dunk. The sudden rise of faith burned in my heart. Gritted his teeth, exerted all his strength, and struggled with both hands to resist......
Under the collision of two huge forces, the two figures separated left and right, and the basketball was thrown high into the sky. The heroin's huge body also flew out of the plane with this huge force.
"Boom!" Heroin's huge body collapsed to the floor.
According to the momentum theorem, if two people hit and collide can make such a heavy heroin fly upside down, then the other smaller one should fly farther.
"Boom!" The other body flew far away, slammed to the floor, and slid on the ground for several meters before crashing into a billboard on the side of the pitch.
Perfect demonstration of the momentum theorem.
"Flute! White No. 24, hit someone foul! ”
"Boss ......" and "Li Changgeng ......" Our team members nervously surrounded one by one.
Falling to the ground, a sharp pain came out of Li Changgeng's back, and his forehead was also hot. Turning over with difficulty, there was a hot feeling on his forehead, and he touched his left hand, but there was no blood.
Trying to stand up with his hands on the ground, his right foot was weak for a while, "Bump!" The body fell to the ground again.
"Jun ......" a clear and beautiful voice, so familiar.
"Boss ......" and "Li Changgeng ......" surrounded the nervous voices of their teammates.
A pair of hands reached over and tried to help Li Changgeng.
"Don't touch Li Changgeng!" A roar came from his throat.
Again, prop up with your left foot, and work harder with your right foot and right foot. "Bump!" The lifted right foot once hung down weakly, and the knee hit the floor.
Damn, can't you stand up? It's the last minute, stand up for me!
"Stand up, stand up...... "The right fist slammed into the calf of the right leg, punch after punch!
There was silence in the gymnasium, and the players on the left and right opened their mouths but did not make a sound.
The numb right leg gradually had a feeling, the right hand supported the ground, raised the right foot, helped the billboard next to it, stood up, stood up.
Staggered and stood up. When the right foot stepped on the ground, the pain came, and the numbness gradually disappeared. The body gradually stood firm, and the shaking sensation disappeared. Raising his head, there are concerned expressions of the team members on the left and right.
"I'm fine, let's go back to the court!" Li Changgeng had no expression on his face and took the lead in walking into the court. His steps were steady, and he didn't look hurt at all.
Facing and heroin walked by, there was no expression on his resolute face. Nodding slightly, Li Changgeng and him staggered over. The referee looked at him inquiringly, Li Changgeng shook his head and said, "No need to change, the game continues!" ”
Li Changgeng stood in the first position on the free throw line, and Paul walked over gently: "Boss, let me do the rebounding!" Staring at the determined expression on his face, Li Changgeng nodded.
Mozart, Harris, and Beethoven stood in other positions, nodding to Li Changgeng without saying a word, with the same firm expression on their faces.
Really, it seems like all of a sudden I can't speak. Spreading his hands, Li Changgeng had to stand outside the three-point line.
"Flute, free throws!" The referee's whistle blows.
"Huh!" The basketball in heroin's hand steadily arced and fell into the basket. is really worthy of heroin, and he can be punished so calmly at this critical time, which shows that he has really been trained hard. But this is not the time to admire. Li Changgeng clasped his hands together, please don't score the second goal.
Second ball.
"Smack!" Slightly off the basket, the basketball bounces high.
Grab a rebound! The figures under the basket surged, Mozart resisted Kachir to death, Paul jumped high, and the basketball was firmly grasped in his hands.
Grabbed the rebound.
"Pass it over!" Li Changgeng, who ran quickly and rushed to the front, shouted loudly. Heroin waved his giant hand to block Paul's pass.
"Smack!" The basketball was handed over to Harris and ran high, aiming at Li Changgeng, who was at the front.
Jump high and grab the hit basketball. A basket-colored figure on the left rushed over, and the Raptors' returning players were already in place.
Rush forward with the ball! Li Chang Gung wants to score, Li Chang Geng wants to send the ball to the basket!
Li Chang Gung wants to win!
In front of you is the forbidden area, "Smack!" "The basketball bounces up and down in his hand, jumps high, and is ready to shoot!
The three figures in front of him stood in the way - Pierce, Pinore, and Gongtianichi! Two hands held high form a high wall.
Do you still want to shoot the basket?
"Smack!" The ball that was suddenly pressed down came out of the crotch. Li Changgeng caught it with a pair of hands behind him, jumped up, and shot the basket! A raised arc, "Huh! With a crisp sound, the basketball fell into the hoop.
It was Beethoven who shot the basket! His feet fell, it was just outside the three-point line, a three-point shot!
Raptors, is Li Changgeng really only going to do it? What do you think Li Changgeng left the captain Beethoven, who was so physically exhausted, on the field?
Looking up at the score, 73:71, the time is nineteen minutes and one second.
Finally, there was only one goal left!
There was silence in the stands, and suddenly the earth-shattering cheers of "Good ......" suddenly sounded.
Raise your hand and high-five the panting captain. Excited team members rushed up and hugged the two of us.
"We're only one goal away, let's turn defeat into victory!"
"Good!" Shouted in unison.
"Defense, defense......" shouted and cheered on and off the court.
Our team was high spirited and shouting, but the Raptors were silent. Is it a demoralizing spirit? The faces of the Raptors were as calm as water.
The silent raptor, even more terrifying.
"Smack!" Floor ball, Pierce's pass passed through Beethoven's armpit to Pinoere, raised his hand to shoot, "Whew! "Score a basket.
Our cheers came to an abrupt halt.
Captain Beethoven stumbled forward, but finally failed to stabilize his center of gravity and fell to the ground. His face was pale, and beads of sweat slipped down his forehead.
"Captain!" The players on the field surrounded them all at once.
Panting, Beethoven waved his hand slightly to indicate that he was fine. Holding his right hand, it was cold, and his physical strength was completely overdrawn. His eyes were slightly red, Li Changgeng stared at Beethoven, and said in a deep voice: "Leave the rest to O'Neill!" He nodded slowly.
With a gentle smile, the captain smiled and said, "You are the coach, of course I listen to you!" ”
"Flute! Our team is asking for a substitution! ”
Look up at the scoreboard, 75:73, 19 minutes and 20 seconds. We had one more timeout. Teach to pause? No, at this time in the game, Li Changgeng no longer had any tactical arrangements in his mind. Calling a timeout gives the opponent a chance to arrange tactics in vain.
Attack!
Kick off the ball, catch the ball. Offensive!
The Raptors didn't retreat, they were all over the court.
Two dodges, basketball passes to Leonard! Leonard was immediately caught between two men. Paul rushed to help. Here, Li Changgeng rushed forward even faster after passing. Paul received the ball and a loud "pass" roar rang in his ears.
"Smack!" The basketball passed to Li Changgeng. Two basket-colored figures immediately appeared in front of him.
rushed, Li Changgeng wanted to rush over, and Li Changgeng wanted to surpass the two people in front of him. The left foot suddenly stopped, turned around like a whirlwind, the shoulder sank, and accelerated!
Did you rush through? No. What about balls?
"Smack!" The basketball passed through Pinoe's crotch to Leonard in front. Four to three!
The moment the two Raptors understood, they quickly turned around and ran wildly. Leonard rushed with the ball, and he was the most physical on our team when he just came on the court, and in the blink of an eye, he broke through Gongtian and rushed to the three-point line.
Pierce finally caught up. Pinault also ran to the inside.
"Give it to me!" A voice rang out over Leonard. Leonard didn't hesitate to pass the ball to the back.
"Mozart!" With a roar, the basketball arced quickly to the Raptors' basket. A figure suddenly appeared under the Raptors' basket, jumped high and hit the basketball, and smashed it down to the basket.
"Boom!" The basket trembled violently.
Dunk!
Heroin and Cachiel had just returned to the penalty area, and could only watch helplessly as the basketball fell from the basket.
What about time? Time! Turning his head to look at the time, there were still nineteen seconds.
"Grab another ball and come back!" Li Changgeng roared loudly, waking up the team members who were still standing in place with ecstatic faces.
Grab another ball back!
"Grab another ball and come back!" Lucas finally muttered the phrase and went back to the moment of the decisive battle four years ago.
This time, will it win?
Lucas was distracted for a moment, and two seconds had passed.
"Grab it back!"
The Raptors' ball passed from Pierce to Pinoeil and back to Heroin. Are they going to stall?
Grab it back! There are only thirteen seconds left.
Grab it back! Lucas in the stands, our players on the sidelines, silently, loudly shouted.
"Smack!" The heroin passed to Koda Ichi, who hit a hand to block the basketball, and the basketball flew out of bounds.
"Hurry up!" A figure flew out of bounds, hit the ball, and struggled to pull back. A figure flashing on the border line? Basket-colored? Oops, the basketball in my hand has flown out.
"Smack!" The basketball slammed into the Raptors' knees and flew out of bounds.
"Boom!" Our team members hit the floor as they flew out of bounds. This person is still Li Changgeng!
Struggled to lift up, the scoreboard was on time: eleven seconds left. The right hand propped up on the ground slid a little, "Smack!" "I fell again. I don't know when, the palm of my right hand was already covered with blood.
"It's okay for you," the referee appeared behind.
The Raptors can't be given a timeout. Hide your right hand in your jersey and wipe it vigorously. The blood on the ground was sucked dry by the pants.
Stand up! Stand up for me! With a roar of anger in his heart, his right foot finally stood firm and stood up.
Turning around, gasping for air, he stepped into the court step by step.
There was silence in the stadium, and tens of thousands of spectators in the stands were silent.
Waving his left hand, Li Changgeng signaled to the team members who rushed over that Li Changgeng was fine. The referee also showed a relieved expression.
It's time to take the throw-in.
Wobbly, Li Changgeng stood in the line.
In the silent gymnasium, nervous spectators involuntarily clutched their chests.
"Li Changgeng, come on! Beat them and defeat the Raptors! There was a sudden shout in the silent gymnasium. Following the voice, a figure in the center of the stands stood up.
"Come on...... Li Changgeng! Come on......" Someone next to him stood up again.
Wipe your eyes and keep your eyes fixed. Yan Kuan! Lotien! Sima Shenji! Amu! It's them! Li Changgeng's old teammates, Li Changgeng's big brothers! Did they come to see the game?
There was a buzz from the spectators in the stands.
Another figure stood up, took off the hat on his head, and the roaring voice resounded throughout the audience: "Come on, Li Changgeng." Defeat the Raptors, defeat the Raptors! ”
It's Lucas, he's here too!
I'll win! This time it's sure to win! With a raised fist, the strength seemed to return to the body. "Come on!" Li Changgeng called out to Leonard, who was stunned outside the boundary.
"Smack!" The ball went to Li Changgeng's hands. "Pap, pop" two rapid and crisp dribbling sounds, the ball changed hands from under the crotch, and the body that continuously changed the center of gravity suddenly drilled through the small two gaps that had just appeared.
Time, nine seconds.
Rush! The figure flashed, and Pierce stood in the way. The ball was handed over to his right hand, and his lowered body was charged to the right, "Smack!" The crotch swung back, the center of gravity was pulled back in the blink of an eye, and in the blink of an eye, it passed under his armpit and rushed over.
Six seconds!
Pinault blocked in front. "Smack, smack!" Changed hands behind his back, turned around abruptly, pulled back again, and rushed over.
Four seconds.
The three-point line is at your feet. Two more huge figures stood in the way - heroin and Kachir!
"Smack!" The basketball is withdrawn from his hand.
Three seconds.
Take a step back and jump!
Two seconds.
The basketball in his hand was raised high and flashed through the heroin cover!
One second!
Cast it!
With a high arc, the basketball seemed to fly very slowly under the sight of thousands of spectators.
Finally, "Whew! "The crisp sound of entering the network.
The figure falls, at the feet, outside the three-point line! This time, there was absolutely no stepping into the three-point line!
Turning his gaze to the referee, the referee with sweat on his forehead came back to his senses for a while.
"Flute! Three points are valid! The game ended, 75:76, our team won! ”
Won?
Victory!
Victorious......
Two fists were raised above his head, and tears spilled uncontrollably from both sides of his eyes. "Bump!" He knelt heavily on his knees, his head held high, as if to announce the news to the heavens.
The cheers of the players in his ears and the cheers of the audience outside the stadium seemed to be so small, and they were far away from Li Changgeng little by little. The kneeling body shook for a while, and the body was about to fall forward.
A pair of hands were held from behind, and several people squatted down beside Li Changgeng. It's Li Changgeng's teammates!
"Boss, we've won, we've won, we're champions......" Mozart shouted excitedly, and Paul next to him, Leonard on the left, and even Harris blushed one by one, waving his fists excitedly, and his mouth seemed to be babbling nonsense. In a trance, I can't really hear it.
yes, we won, we finally won against the Raptors. The overdrawn physical strength seems to have quietly returned because of this thought. In a trance, Li Changgeng's shaking body straightened up.
Turning his head, he looked towards the bench on the sidelines, where Selena was. No one! The teaching assistant is not on the sidelines! When the referee's whistle blew to end the game, the players on the sidelines jumped up and rushed into the stadium. Everyone cheered and hugged each other. The regular team members, substitute players, first-year players, second-year players, and the only third-year captain, hugged and jumped with each other!
What about Selena? The eyes were looking in the crowd, not in the crowd, not on the sidelines, where the locker room door still seemed to be shaking.
Inside the locker room?
Coming out of the jubilant crowd, Li Changgeng quietly walked out of the court, pushed open the door of the locker room, and the sound of slight sobbing and whimpering came from inside.
It was Selena, covering her face and turning her back to Li Changgeng. With trembling shoulders and muffled whimpering, there was an atmosphere of sadness in the room. Looking at the sad back of the jade man, the joy of winning suddenly disappeared without a trace. There was a bitterness in his throat, and he opened his mouth to scream but didn't make a sound.
Sensing that there was someone behind her, Selena wiped her tears and turned around, and saw that it was Li Changgeng who turned around again. Li Changgeng felt a heartache in his heart, an impulse, and gently walked behind her, grabbed her shoulders with his arms, and gently turned her around. Reach out and take away the jade hand she was covering her eyes. Her hands did not resist, but her eyes were tightly closed, and tears flowed from both sides.
Those beautiful eyes, but they were red and swollen at this time, Li Changgeng's heart twitched, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hand and gently cover her red and swollen eyes.
Li Changgeng smiled bitterly: "Let's sit down, I can't stand still." ”
With Selena's support, Li Changgeng carefully sat down on the ground. In fact, without waiting for the ground, Li Changgeng had already fallen to the ground.
Selena's face turned pale and asked nervously, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Li Changgeng covered her mouth nervously, looked back at the door and made sure that there was no one before he said, "It's nothing, it's just that my feet are weak." Can Li Changgeng sleep here for a while? Li Changgeng pointed to the cabinet.
