25. Regret and self-blame
"Feel free to sit, I went to bed early today, and I was just woken up by you."
Jiang Zhixia stared at Jiang Elegy, staring intently.
"What's wrong? See what I'm doing? Am I good-looking? ”
"When did you come back?" Jiang Jiang asked expressionlessly.
Jiang replied; "Does it matter? Does it matter? Since you have come to my house, you are guests, brother, look, go and pour tea. ”
Jiang He glanced at Jiang Elegy; "What do you think this is?"
"Okay, I'm too lazy to bother with you, be quiet, and stop arguing with me." Jiang Elegy returned to the room after speaking, she was lying on the bed in a very bad mood, not wanting to cry, of course, not happy, the person she really liked, and even the person she still liked, appeared in front of her, but she couldn't lower her head, she really couldn't help herself.
Jiang Jiang turned his gaze and said goodbye to Jiang He; "I'll go first, see you in the game."
"Don't lose," Jiang He said bigly.
Jiang Jiang and Jiang Zhixia left together, Jiang Jiang didn't choose to be an elevator, and forced Jiang Zhixia to go down layer by layer, they didn't speak, they had something on their minds, which was elusive.
"Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to the third game of the semi-finals. Let's wait and see. ”
With Jiang He's appearance, the audience began to boil, Qingzhong has begun to become less famous, in other words, most people don't think that Qingzhong can enter the finals, behind Jiang He is Jiang Elegy, she walked to the onlookers of the experimental middle school step by step, sitting on the chair, no one knows what she is from, no one knows who she is, but at first glance, you will think she is very good-looking, maybe it is a star who is not famous.
Yang Qi and Jiang Jiang came on the stage, did warm-up exercises, stood up, and prepared to start the third game.
It's game on!
Jiang He took the lead in fighting for the ball, scored with the ball, and faced the rival Jiang Jiang, passing the ball to the inside, but unfortunately it didn't score.
Qingzhong turned to attack, and Yang Qi threw a three-point shot. Qingzhong leads the experimental middle school 3-0.
However, the offensive rhythm of Qingzhong slowed down, and the tactical execution was not very timely, and the experimental middle school had a particularly good tactical arrangement today, the defense was very tight, and it was difficult to leak, and the opening game was 3-01 and played to 9:11.
When Yang Ge wanted to break through, he caused an offensive foul and sent the players from the experimental middle school to the free throw line. At this time, the score was stretched to 9:13.
Jiang Jiang said on the field; "Fight slowly, don't rush."
Yang Qi turned to comfort; "Listen to Jiang Jiang, play slowly, slow down the pace of attack."
Constantly passing the ball outside the three-point line, passing in, passing out, Qingzhong's offense every second seemed extremely tired, not because the tactics were difficult to execute, but because the defense of the experimental middle school was too firm, and Jiang Jiang found a vacancy in the remaining 4 seconds, shot at the three-point line, hit the iron, and the score did not change.
But fortunately, the attack of the experimental middle school was also very slow, and Jiang He also returned three points, but unfortunately, this did not go in, and the two sides began to play iron.
Jiang Jiang counterattacked with the ball, accelerated the speed of dribbling, and shot three points directly against Jiang He, sure enough, it was iron again, fortunately, Changcheng got the rebound, glanced at Jiang Jiang, who was sandwiched by the two, and threw the ball to Yang Qi, if this game is a game, then Yang Qi must have made a quick shot. The three-point line receives the ball and shoots "Bang!" "Three-point hitting, finally not the sound of iron. The score was narrowed down to 1 point.
The onlookers were hotly discussed, and Qingzhong seemed to have regained his form, and then he gave those who said that Qingzhong still couldn't enter the finals.
The attack of the experimental middle school, compared to the letting go of its own side, the outside line of Qingzhong is really weak, so the tactic of the experimental middle school today is to frantically throw the outside line and attack. Jiang He accelerated with the ball, made a layup, and the layman could see that the ball must be entered, and forced Jiang Jiang, who was following the defense, to hit a big hat and deduct it, and immediately shouted Jiang Jiang's name from the audience, who said that Qingzhong could not enter the finals, who said that Qingzhong was still in the top four today, he just wanted to slap everyone's face, he just wanted to lift Qingzhong into the finals!
The referee gave the ball in the front court, and the ball was still in the experimental middle school, this time Jiang He, who strictly implemented the tactics, kept looking for three passes, Jiang He shot in the bottom corner, hit a three-point shot, and turned his head to give Jiang Jiang a thumbs up.
Jiang Jiang saw that Jiang He was so disgusting to himself, and turned his head to Yang Qi and said; "It's better to let him play inside, and lose a point." Yang Qi patted Jiang Jiang on the shoulder; "It's okay, we're bound to get it today."
There are about 2 minutes left in the game, and the difference between the two points is not big, and the experimental middle school is 24:21 Qinglin Middle School.
The whistle sounded, the first quarter of the game ended, the audience discussed separately, each with their own opinions, these words, Jiang Jiang seems to have been exposed to these words for a long time, since he was a child, he will try his best to resist, he is unwilling to treat everything, and wants to fight for a clear line, and then he slowly lost the spirit of resistance, most things began to follow the rules, maybe for him, other people's words have long been indifferent, yes, today is playing by himself, not others, how can he achieve his goals.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Jiang Jiang never found his touch, he was replaced in the first quarter, and he did not appear in the second quarter, so far he has not scored a point. At the beginning of the second quarter, Yang Qi got Ning Zixin's pass, dunked, and ignited the whole court again, perhaps this is the charm of basketball, even if the score is behind, it does not affect the shouting for Qingzhong, at this time the score is 27:24, only a three-point difference, it looks like a three-point can be chased back.
Jiang Jiang played.
The experimental middle school attacked, passed four or five times and did not shine in a good position, Jiang He was just about to make a move, was robbed by Jiang Jiang, Qingzhong switched from defense to attack, and the experimental middle school was very timely to disarm, no wonder it is said that fighting with the experimental middle school is to gnaw a hard bone, it can be said that it is very vividly described. Jiang Jiang quickly dribbled the ball to the backcourt, did not wait for a shot, was also stealed, and once again exchanged offense and defense, Jiang He held the ball and attacked quickly, Qingzhong's return defense is a rabbit compared to the return defense of the experimental middle school, a turtle, Jiang He rushed into the interior line very rationally this time, and did not choose to shoot three points, he knew that if he threw three points, it would be a head-to-head duel with Jiang Jiang, he made a very wise decision, and successfully made Jiang Jiang's foul, Jiang He stood on the free throw line.
Jiang He turned his head and glanced at Jiang Elegy, ignoring the little fan girl who called his name on the stage, and hit both free throws, and the score widened again, 33:25.
With five minutes left in the second quarter, there was obvious sweat on the players' faces, but they didn't want to be replaced, and every minute and every second was a sign of respect for what they were doing.
Finally had a smooth attack, Yang Qi took advantage of Jiang He's turn of his head and gave Jiang Jiang a look, the two understood each other, the ball went out of Yang Qi's hand and flew over the basket, Jiang Jiang flew up to make up for the dunk, Yang Qi sent an assist, and Jiang Jiang completed a dunk.
"What else is this talking about?" "I think we will take the lead in the next quarter." "I think Qingzhong can get the match point today."
The second quarter ended, and the third quarter ended quickly, playing and playing, and before I knew it, the score was closer, and the experimental middle school was 59:58 experimental middle school.
At the beginning of the last section, Jiang Jiang finally remembered that there were three people cheering for him in the audience, and turned his head to look, those three people were there all the time, but he didn't look at them, once bricks, he saw Jiang Elegy, yes, Jiang Elegy was sitting in the front row, who was she cheering for?
When the whistle blew, Jiang Jiang gradually regained his state, made fouls, and played 3+1 to pull the score back to the lead, which was the first time Qingzhong took the lead after 3:0 at the beginning of the first quarter, which was hard-won. Steady and steady, but slowly down, the drawbacks of Qingzhong's offense were revealed, and the experimental middle school once again took the lead. Jiang Elegy frowned, maybe she really came for Jiang Jiang.
Chang Cheng, who had been silent for a long time, finally gave the audience a surprise, cashed in on his physical talent, and faced the defenders of the experimental middle school, and came up with a flying dunk, all the previous goals were not so dazzling in front of this dunk, this time, the whole audience stood up and stretched out his hands, this is his talent, Chang Cheng stretched out his hand to greet the audience, he signaled not to let the atmosphere go cold.
The fourth quarter is coming to an end with 1:03 remaining. At this time, Jiang Jiang stood at the free throw line, the score of the two sides was 75:71, and the score was narrowed to 2 points. Turned to attack by the experimental middle school, at such a critical moment, of course, to slow down the pace of the attack, and for Qingzhong, every second goes fast, for them, whether to wait until the next attack, or to make a foul now, maybe fate is always not biased in favor of anyone, Ning Zixin defended the foul, so that the experimental middle school played 2+1. At that moment, the voice of the audience was too much; "Penalties must be scored." "This penalty must not be scored." Lu Xiang's heart was hanging, her expression was frozen, she would go to Jiang Elegy to cheer for Jiang Jiang.
Unfortunately, the serve did not go into the remaining 43.3 seconds, and the score was 77:73, and the game remained in suspense.
Qingzhong attacked, Jiang Jiang shot at the three-point line, popped out of the frame, the sound of cheering for Qingzhong on the audience and cooled down, only the players were still working hard, pinching in advance, Jiang He held the ball, the referee gave the ball to the front court, the experiment made a mistake, passed the ball to the backcourt, and the most important thing was to let Jiang Jiang, who was following the defense, steal and make a foul, which made the court that had been silent for a long time boil again. Jiang Jiang once again walked to the free throw line, he knew that if he could score both free throws, and had the ball, and scored three points, he could still score overtime, his heart was like going into outer space, it was difficult to calm down, the first free throw, the free throw was missed. The second free throw, and the free throw was lost, Yang Qi desperately grabbed the rebound, ran the ball out, Jiang Jiang, who was standing at the three-point line and was empty, shot and lost it again, this time Changcheng got the rebound again, and the experimental middle school went crazy to defend, with 21.2 seconds left in the game, this time everyone's hearts stopped at that moment, this ball, lost again, lost the ball four times in a row, Jiang Jiang successfully sent the game away.
Yang Qi may have been a little lost, he hurriedly ran over and put his arm on Jiang Jiang's shoulder, and at that moment the whole audience was staring at Jiang Jiang, Jiang Elegy, Jiang He, Jiang Zhixia, Lin Lang, and Lu Xiang. They couldn't understand Jiang Jiang's mood at that moment, they just knew that he was very uncomfortable, so his eyes on the field didn't blink, maybe it was self-blame, maybe it was regret.
With 12.1 seconds remaining, the score opened 78-73.
The whistle blew and the whole court ended, Jiang Jiang left the court alone, no one knew what he was thinking at that moment, just watched his back fade away.
Jiang Elegy stood in place and watched him leave, and Lu Xiang rushed over without hesitation, wanting to comfort him and hug him.
