Chapter 43: A Thrilling First Victory

Handing the ball to the referee on the field, Yang Long saw the face of Coach K. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yang, what are you doing?" Coach K said the same thing as Casey, "You're playing for Duke's team, and the game isn't your bullfight!" And don't forget your position on the court, point guard! ”

Coach K picked up the tactical board again to evolve tactics, but Yang Long was a little confused.

Recalling the short time on the court just now, Yang Long was indeed a little selfish on the court. They are a team, but Yang Long is burying the results of the team's efforts because of his own selfishness. It's not right to do it yourself! Yang Long condemned himself in his heart.

But now that I wake up, I don't know if it's too late, will Coach K replace him? This is a problem that Yang Long has to face now.

"Up, up, up!" When the timeout came, Coach K erased the handwriting on the tactical board, but there was no intention of substitution.

Yang Long was overjoyed in his heart, and went into battle again, secretly warning himself in his heart not to affect the whole team because of personal gains and losses.

Perhaps because of the scene where Yang Long was scolded by Coach K just now, Williams and Dunleavy both walked to Yang Long's side before going on the court, patted his buttocks, and gave him encouragement.

Feeling such trust, Yang Long felt a trace of guilt in his heart.

"We're a team, we're a team with both glory and loss, and even more so I'm a point guard, so I should put the team first!"

Holding the ball to the full court, Yang Long handed the ball to Williams, and then pulled away to the strong side, creating a single opportunity for Williams on the weak side.

Williams first dribbled to the penalty area several times in disguise, and at this time, the opposing center came to help defend, and Casey was let go!

Williams had long eyes behind his back and raised the ball with both hands to make a gesture to pass, but this move did not escape the eyes of the opponent's small front John, he went straight to Williams's passing route, and was bound to cut off the pass intended to be handed to Casey! Once Casey catches the ball, it is bound to form a big and small situation under the basket, and the score is unstoppable!

However, Williams stopped the pass in time and the ball was still under his control!

After a round of switching defenses, Andre actually chose to chase Jones who defended the bottom line, completely exposing Yang Long.

"Grandma's! Isn't that discriminating against me? I'm also an outside player, how can I say that I can just let go of it? ”

"Give me the ball!" Yang Long went straight to the top of the arc and shouted at Williams as he ran.

The ball came to Yang Long's hands accurately, there was no one within 2.5 meters in front of him, Yang Long dribbled with his right hand, adjusted the breathing rhythm, and shot three points!

Yang Long saw that Andre was already running wildly towards the front, and secretly hurried down, as if he wanted to repeat the script of the last attack. He felt a deep sense of contempt again, "Your sister, do you know that I can't make it?" ”

Andre's sneak this time is about to fail, the reason is very simple, Yang Long is in the middle of three points.

If this goal is not scored, there are three disadvantages: one is to affect Yang Long's self-confidence, the second is to affect the trust of Yang Long's teammates, and the third is to help the opponent dare to let Yang Long's defensive strategy short.

Seeing the ball, Yang Long clenched his fists tightly, and it was good to enter!

"I didn't expect you to shoot that three!" Andre skillfully controlled the ball, he didn't look at the ball with his eyes at all, and chatted with Yang Long while dribbling.

"yes......"

This product is fraudulent!

Yang Long still wanted to talk to him a few words, but he saw Andre change direction to the right once, and his reflexive left sliding step, but he only felt like he was hitting a stone wall! The opposing center Manger said that he had made a high-quality cover in the gap just now.

The cover opened up the shooting space for Andre, and Andre was silent and shot back with three points!

A slight lack of concentration Yang Long paid the price.

"Rub, I won't talk to this thing anymore anyway!" Yang Long told himself in his heart.

"Push! Speed up! Coach K shouted from the sidelines.

Yang Long held the ball quickly through the half, Casey had come to the high post to give him a cover, the left side changed direction, Casey blocked and cut into the inside line, in front of Yang Long Andre and Manger closed the door, Casey was originally an excellent opportunity to go down, but under the interference of the two in front of him, he couldn't get the ball.

At this time, Yang Long saw Jones pass Dunleavy's baseline cover to the bottom corner outside the three-point line, he passed the ball behind his back, and the ball came to Jones' hands.

Although the defenders were in hot pursuit, Jones was still more than 1.5 meters apart when he was ready to shoot. Jones made a decisive shot, and it was even harder to block his shot!

鏮~

The iron is struck, and this assist is not related to Yang Long.

The three-point shooting failed, Andre immediately organized a counterattack, Yang Long bit on the side, and he and Andre ran in the front in the rapid advance and defense.

Coming to the top of Duke's three-point line arc, Andre dribbled once, retracted his right foot that stepped into the three-point line, and pretended to shoot!

In the fast rhythm of offense and defense, Yang Long must react quickly, Andre felt hot outside the three-point line tonight, and this ball could not be unguarded.

The reaction of his mind and body was synchronized, Yang Long had already jumped high, and secretly said in his heart, Andre must eat my hat this time! This hat can also solve the embarrassment of being almost knocked to the ground in a trance just now!

However, stagnating in the air, Yang Long saw Andre grinning at the corners of his mouth, and then jumped up, his hands and body went straight to his front waist!

Not good!

Yang Long hurriedly turned his body sideways in the air to dodge, and Andre wanted to make a foul on him!

Beep!

"!" Yang Long burst into a foul mouth, he was too careless just now, this defensive choice was too reckless, this was another defensive mistake.

"Got you, rookie!" Andre triumphantly walked to the free throw line.

"Your sister, do I have the word rookie written on my face?!" Yang Long was speechless in his heart.

But I have to say that Andre's vision is still relatively old, and this is Yang Long's first official game. In fact, recalling that he was full of loopholes in just a few minutes, Yang Long felt that even if he was not a rookie, he was undoubtedly an old rookie.

In the rest of the day, Yang Long tried to stay calm and make sure he made fewer mistakes on the court.

Andre hit all three free throws and hit three consecutive three-pointers to bring the score to 51-47 at halftime, and Duke only maintained a four-point lead.

After a five-minute half-time break, both sides played their main forces and fought on the pitch. Yang Long sat on the bench and thought about his performance on the court, which ones were good and which ones were the mistakes he made. Summarizing, thinking, and changing, this is what Yang Long must do, and this is the guarantee for him to move forward.

Perhaps because of the excessive physical exertion in the first half, in the second half, the shooting rates of both sides decreased, and the scores of both sides fell into anxiety in the slow growth of the score.

"Andre Barrett, three points~!"

There are still 8 minutes left in the game time, and with Andre hitting a three-point shot, the score on the court came to a 61-61 draw, and it seemed that a game with a huge disparity in strength still retains suspense until now. Coach K had to call a timeout again, and he couldn't stand it anymore because he frequently missed outside the three-point line.

"Don't let me see anyone wandering around the field, you have to run, run, you know? Limit the opponent's outside line! "Coach K is quite dissatisfied with the team's outside defense today, and he is emotional, and his spit is scattered.

Despite this, Yang Long still dangled in front of Coach K, maybe Coach K wanted to replace him, but Coach K forgot about it for a while, and Yang Long thought that he had to give him some hints.

In the following time, Coach K called a timeout three timesouts, and Yang Long still did not get a chance to play again.

With 19 seconds left in the game, the score was 78:79, and Duke was one point behind in the face of the underdog Sibb University.

Fortunately, Duke had the ball for the next offense, and Coach K quickly called a timeout.

At this time, Yang Long already knew that he had no chance to play again in this game, and he was not in the mood to think about this anymore at this time.

If Duke doesn't play this offense next, then they will lose the first game of the new season, and the loss to Sibb University is a big blow to Duke's self-confidence.

The audience held their breath, and Yang Long and the team's substitutes also gathered around Coach K and kept quiet.

In the team's life-or-death moment, Coach K Sr. left a fateful offensive opportunity to Williams, and he set up cover positions for other teammates on the tactical board.

When the timeout is up, Duke must make a quick offense, and if he misses a shot, he will be fouled immediately and have a second chance to save the game.

The two sides on the field are settled!

Dunleavy served in the midcourt, Williams started to run from outside the left three-point line, passed through the double cover of Jones and Boozer in turn, and Dujon ran out from the left side, feigning to catch the ball!

Dujon distracts one man, and Williams catches the ball successfully!

Right hand to left, left hand to right hand, double direction, Williams from the right side to the basket!

The baseline defenders come to make up for it!

Williams Horse Riding and Archery!

Yang Long and his teammates had already stood up from the bench, and his heart tightened after the ball was shot!

The basketball hit the rebound and bounced into the basket!

"William-William!" The atmosphere that had just been stagnant on the field was detonated in an instant, and everyone shouted William's name, and the sound was deafening.

80:79, overtaken!

Sibu University quickly called a timeout, leaving them with nine seconds left to attack. Williams rushed to the bench excitedly, Yang Long rushed out, and hit his chest in the air to celebrate! Although he is not on the court, the team's overtake still makes Yang Long's heart passionate, which is the charm of basketball games!

Coach K stopped his teammates' celebrations and set up the last defense. This time the defense was crucial, and Williams had just completed a quasi-lore, and if he was not careful, Sibb could have unleashed the fatal blow to complete the real lore.

In order to increase the height of the interior, the old K coach replaced Boozer, who was slightly less athletic, and Kessie came on the court to take charge of defense.

Sibu University midfielder serves, Andre uses his speed to get rid of the defense and successfully catch the ball.

Manger blocks and dismantles high, and Andre kills inside!

Casey quickly assists in defense, and Du Hong comes to attack behind him! Time is running out!

“5!” The Sibb University coach began shouting about the timer.

It was impossible for Andre to give the ball to Manger, who had no projection ability, and he spotted Darus on the left, and with a flick of his right hand, the ball came to Darus.

“4!”

"Shoot! Sell! Sibb University substitute shouted into the field.

Darus three-point shot!

Yang Long's heart tightened, and the players on the court were also stunned for a moment, and their attention was all focused on this three-point shot.

“3!”

Bang! The iron is struck!

It's too late to celebrate, and there is a sudden change on the field!

Everyone paid too much attention to the three-point shot just now, because of this moment of stunnedness, there was no one to protect the rebound, and the game time was not over at this time!

A short guy goes out and picks up the rebound! It's Andrey!

“2!”

As soon as the ball arrived, Andre threw the ball directly to the basket!

“1!”

The ball bumped twice on the basket, and Yang Long's heart was like this!

"Toot!"

The sound of the end of the game sounds!

That goal was finally not scored!

Duke narrowly won by one point.

"Win! We won! ”

Yang Long rushed to the field and hugged his teammates.

Looking at Williams, who was surrounded in the middle as a hero, Yang Long's heart was envious.

Today, he didn't even make a good replacement.
