169 Ecstasy Rebounds!
"The second half is on!" Taylor's sharp eyes saw the situation on the basketball court that was beginning to gradually change, and pointed to the players and staff who were waiting on the basketball court to say to Avril.
"It's really getting started!" Avril saw Zhang Chen coming out of the players' tunnel, chatting with Paul, not knowing what the two were talking about.
"Hey, Chris...... I'm sorry, but I have to say I have to take care of my stamina so that I can perform better in the next games, right? You know I'm not in a fit to play right away. ”
Paul could only nod regretfully, and he could also see that Zhang Chen's physical strength was indeed incomparable to them. He really regarded Zhang Chen as one of the most powerful parts of the first-year team, and now he followed Zhang Chen's intentions and asked him to rest and rest, and then go up to kill the Quartet when he got to the later time.
The second half of the game continued.
James clasped his hands on his chest and watched the performance of both sides on the basketball court, and from time to time he also yelled loudly at some of the players on the court to make them pay more attention.
At the last moment of the first half, Zhang Chen used a slam dunk of two plus one to bring the difference between the two sides back to within 10 points, allowing the first-grade team to regain the capital to turn the tables. Now, the first-year team is trying to see if they can take out this formidable foe in one fell swoop.
Every second-grader came from the first grade, and they failed to complete the feat of defeating their seniors, and this year they happened to have to suppress the first-year juniors who wanted to overcome their own feats.
The two sides engaged in a frantic battle of offense and defense on the basketball court, and in a matter of minutes, they had completed a number of offensive and defensive transitions.
Zhang Chen had been sitting on the bench for the first few minutes of the second half, watching the success or failure, and the first-year team had fallen behind by 13 points in the fifth minute, facing a group of vicious seniors, they really had no way to pull their teeth and win the game.
"Bang!" The basket trembled slightly, Zhang Chen's old opponent Brewer hung on the basket and looked up to the sky and roared, just now he completed a beautiful slam dunk, dodging the defense of three people in a row, the DJ on the scene was shouting his name frantically, and for a while, the basketball court was also full of cheers for Brewer.
The margin has reached 15 points, and the first-year team looks really defenseless in front of the second-year.
"Hey...... It seems that the first-year team doesn't have much chance today~~" Taylor sat next to Avril and said with some regret: "Every year I hope they can have a chance to beat the guys who are bigger than them, but unfortunately, it seems that this year my wish can only be ruined!" ”
Avril said with some determination in her eyes: "The game is far from over, the first-year team still has more than ten minutes to go, and everything can still happen!" ”
Taylor shrugged, "Maybe it won't happen, you should see the vicious second-year team members, each of them eager to win, and they are doing their best...... In comparison, the first-year team was not able to completely suppress the opponent's characters! ”
Avril shook her head: "Nothing has happened yet...... I don't know what I'm supposed to say to you, but I do want to say that I'm sure the Year 1 team will gradually get back on the score! ”
Taylor was noncommittal, but still watched the game intently, and just then, the whistle blew, and the mandatory timeout for the second half arrived, and the players returned to their benches.
"Dude...... I have to say you're a bit of a disappointment, I thought you guys would be able to make those little second graders the out...... Unfortunately, the facts are a bit different...... But I want to say it's all okay because we have a lot of time left, we still have a lot of opportunities, and if we give it our all, we will win! Paul's incendiary words echoed around the bench for a long time.
The game has reached this point, in fact, many first-year people have lost a little confidence, and now the atmosphere is a little quiet, because they know that the previous first-year students have not been able to beat the second-year. They're so far behind now that it's a bit of a fool's dream to win.
"Chen, can you play?" Paul asked Zhang Chen nervously.
"Okay, I think I'm energetic now." Zhang Chen stood up, and Paul finally put his mind at ease: with Zhang Chen on the field, today's victory is still possible...... Specifically, if Zhang Chen's hand is still there, their victory today is still very likely.
"The man who was able to change the situation is back on the field!" Avril saw Zhang Chen stepping on the court, and Zhang Chen, who was sorting out his jersey, said to Taylor next to him.
"Who?" Taylor was looking around, and every player in this year's Rookie Challenge was still wearing their own team's clothes, and it was a bit dazzling to look at it from a distance.
Avril said, "That's it...... The Suns' No. 6 ...... It's also what you said, it's cool to play ball! ”
"It turned out to be him......" Taylor gave Avril a vague look, and then went to watch the game intently.
――――
Zhang Chen stood on the basketball court again, looking at the 15-point scoreboard, and suddenly felt very stressed.
In this game, the people of the second-grade team were quite strong, and the people of the first-year team have been suppressed, and now under the huge score difference of 15 points, many people in the first-year team are basically demoralized, thinking that today's game will be forgotten at the end of the data.
So, the situation is even more dire in this way.
Durant and Zhang Chen were on the court together, and Durant had just been on the court, and at this time he was a little dizzy and worried when he looked at the huge 15-point difference.
"Hey, we're going to win......" Zhang Chen suddenly said this when he passed by Durant's side, Durant heard this thoughtless sentence, but he smiled slightly, and then began to retreat to the halfcourt, waiting for the point guard to come over and dribble and attack.
Now the point guard of the first-year team has been replaced by Navarro, who is also from the Grizzlies, and this is a very deft man.
In the first few minutes of the second half, they were beaten by their opponents and were somewhat helpless, and now Navarro thought of Zhang Chendi's wonderful performance in the first half, and pinned his hopes on Zhang Chendi.
The basketball passed to Zhang Chen.
Defending Zhang Chen was his old friend Brewer.
"Hello...... We meet again......" Brewer said maliciously.
"Yes, we met again, and our basketball met again......" After saying this, Zhang Chen's voice jumped high before it completely dissolved, and the basketball was thrown towards the basket.
Brewer secretly scolded this despicable fellow, he had no time to defend.
Zhang Chen was talking to him like this, and immediately jumped up to shoot, which was a bit like fighting a bayonet when someone suddenly shot him, which caught people off guard and could only drink hatred.
"Bang!"
The audience, who was looking forward to Zhang Chen's performance again, heard this voice and were a little stunned when they saw the basketball flying out of the basket: it turned out that he also missed the shot!
Zhang Chen's hand has been lost a lot after doing it off the basketball court for a long time, and now he is suddenly back on the court, he needs a process of re-adaptation, and the ball just now was an accident in his adaptation process and failed to shoot.
As long as a shooter has teammates who are willing to feed him the ball, when he encounters this kind of shooting miss, feeding the ball a few more times will basically feed the feel. It's a pity that Zhang Chen didn't have the opportunity to be fed the ball continuously, because the sophomore team had already grabbed the rebounds and scored fast-breaks, and the difference became 17 points.
Suddenly, the first-grade team was gloomy again, and there was no doubt that this ball was tantamount to adding insult to injury for the first-grade team, with a score difference of 17 points, which was already very close to 20 points.
At the critical moment, Durant finally stepped up.
Navarro came to the half, and the opposing point guard had already begun to press him all over the court, and they wanted to completely contain the attack of these guys in a short period of time, so they decided to start with the point guard first.
Thankfully, Navarro took a moment to get past half court and immediately passed the basketball to Durant.
Durant faced Gay's defense, and after a quick lateral move, he finally caught up with a time difference and hit a jumper from beyond the three-point line!
"Good shot!" The first-year bench began to cheer, Durant is a really good shot, and at such a critical time, if he doesn't shoot and the opponent launches a three-point attack...... Then the first-year team is basically dead.
Thinking of this, they also began to think of Zhang Chen's hand, and he didn't seem to hit the first ball...... Could it be that his touch is starting to decline? This is not good news...... It seems that it can only rely on Kevin's play.
"Good shot!" Zhang Chen ran over to congratulate, Durant high-fived him, and then returned to the half court to press the defense.
However, the second-graders' offense was steady, their point guard broke through the ball, and the basketball ended up in Brewer's hands, where Brewer made a jumper with his rather ugly shot, and the basketball flew into the net.
Three-pointers were hit, and the margin was again 17 points.
The strength of the sophomore team was refreshing, and suddenly, the first-year team focused on Durant, expecting him to lead the team to a comeback.
It's not just the first-year team that's paying attention to Durant, but the second-year team is also paying attention to Durant, and all of a sudden, his passing routes are basically cut off and embattled.
Immediately, Navarro passed the basketball to Zhang Chen.
Zhang Chen faced Brewer and began to bend down, ready to start attacking.
This ball is really important, if Zhang Chen can't score a goal, they will be slashed by the opponent to a score difference of more than 20 points in an instant! At that point, they will not be able to return to heaven.
Zhang Chen leaned forward with his own footsteps, and then quickly made a shooting action, Brewer was fooled, and his toes left the ground a little.
Taking advantage of this little time, Zhang Chen put away the shooting feints, and then started jumping again.
The audience has seen a lot of shooting feints like Zhang Chen, and now seeing him perform it again, everyone immediately paid attention to Zhang Chendi.
The first-year team was even more apprehensive, and Paul had left the range where he could appear and was pushed back by the referee.
It's a matter of success or failure!
The basketball flew towards the basket.
"Bang!"
Zhang Chen was stunned as soon as he landed! It turned out to be another missed shot! It's a critical time! If the opponent launches a three-point fast break at this time...... It's unimaginable...... I'm going to be a sinner......
Zhang Chen quickly prepared to start the defense to see if he could defend against the opponent's fast attack, but he quickly stopped, and then had an urge to run over and hug Noah!
Rewind time to a second ago, Noah jumped to his feet, crashed into several competitors in the air, and grabbed the orange-red basketball that had touched the hearts of tens of thousands of people.
"Tatsu, your ball!" Noah was not greedy for merit, especially for his friends!
The basketball flew out of Noah's hand and came to Zhang Chendi's hand.
Brewer had just run inside to grab a rebound, and now he didn't have time to return to defense, and all of a sudden, Zhang Chen had already made a jump shot when there was no one in front of him.
"This one will definitely go in!" The first-graders nervously looked at the basketball flying and tumbling in the air, and began to pray in their hearts. Noah also bent his knees, staring at the flying elf!
"Bang!"
The sound of striking iron came out again, and this time, everyone was stunned!
Zhang Chen has missed three consecutive shots, and the most important thing is that most of the first-year team is now about to perish on this ball!
Suddenly, many people have begun to worry like crazy.
Then, they saw a scene that will be hard to forget for the rest of their lives...... They saw Noah fly out of the crowd again, and then, the people in the sky were once again knocked away by his body and faith, and the basketball was once again held in his arms!
People can't help but be in awe!
Noah grabbed the basketball without stopping, and threw it to the outside again: "Chen, it's still yours!" Here's one more chance! ”
Zhang Chen received this basketball that seemed to have the weight of thousands of gold, which weighed heavily on his heart, and a kind of shooter's instinct suddenly woke up in his body!
I'm going to be able to shoot this ball, with our faith and all the hard work!
Jump shot! Throw Brewer, who had just pounced on him and had a stunned expression on his face, to his side, and to his side with worry and doubt!
This is a move he has done thousands of times, and the shooting shot after the jump is as natural as his peers.
"Huh!" The whitened net flower reminds everyone that the first-year team has scored!
――――
"Hey, good brother! I knew you could get in! Noah rushed up and punched Zhang Chen in the chest, Zhang Chen was beaten to grin but still laughed, and said, "Joaquin, I have to say that your rebounding is the best I've ever seen...... I think we're going to make the second graders have no chance at all! ”
"That's nature, let's join forces, they will definitely have no way out!" After the 80s, the Shaolin abbot flower, the turbulent waves in his heart gradually subsided, and finally there was only one word left: victory.
Victory!
