Basketball is Faith - Chapter 31
“At the beginning of the second quarter, except for point guard Guo Cheng, the other four main players at Crane City University played the first quarter. They are still on the court now, which is a test of physical fitness!” Liu Mu, who was entangled in the center of the city’s backup center, knew that it was a big challenge for Crane City University to recover the backward score.
The three substitutes on the ice faction know at first glance that they are defensive titans. They are well connected from the position to the defense.
Looking back at Crane City University, Qian Ning’s footwork flexibility and defensive awareness can only be regarded as average, Zhu Zihua’s defensive ability is good, but his current physical fitness is a little overdrawn, and his footwork is also a little vain.
Bingcheng University recognized their problems, so Wang Meng was in charge of the main attack. The other players ran backwards, shooting if there was an open spot, and continuing to run if they didn’t.
Wang fiercely carried the banner of offense, he was also welcome, directly relying on Zhu Zihua’s low singles, if there are Crane City players double-team, he chooses to pass.
Crane City players were tortured by their opponents in a bit of embarrassment. They couldn’t find the touch at all on the offensive end. This made the second pass sent by Guo Cheng like a stone sinking into the sea without any waves.
At 5 minutes and 17 seconds of the second quarter, coach Zhang Tiejun reluctantly called a timeout, replaced all the main players, and replaced Liu Xiaodong as a substitute.
Bingcheng University took the opportunity to replace the three main players headed by Du Weibin, and wanted to further expand the leading advantage!
Yu Bing is a very cautious coach. He knows that leading his opponent by 21 points does not mean that he can sit back and relax. You must know that there are more than two quarters left, and some difficult things have a chance to do!
Liu Xiaodong returned to the shooting guard. He ran the corner to get an open opportunity. Tian Bin, who was in possession of the ball, passed the ball in the first time.
As soon as Liu Xiaodong received the ball and was about to make a shot, Yuan Fang, who was chased over, waved his hand on the wrist. The referee blew the foul whistle in time.
Liu Xiaodong stood on the free throw line depressed. He wanted to shoot a three-pointer to open the situation, but he was destroyed by his opponent. He shook his numb wrist and made two free throws in the audience boos. 41 to 22
In the next round, Liu Xiaodong made another shot from the bottom corner and was fouled by Yuan Fang’s thugs again, and he still made two free throws. 41 to 24
This foul was made by Yuan Fang deliberately. His purpose was to prevent Liu Xiaodong from shooting and to kill the opponent’s counter-offensive momentum in the bud.
After , Liu Xiaodong was sent to the free throw line by Yuan Fang, which made Liu Xiaodong a little bit eager to cry without tears. I just wanted to shoot a basketball. How about you beating the wrist to death! Besides, if you ask me to vote, you may not get in!
By the end of halftime, Liu Xiaodong scored 11 points with free throws, plus his two three-pointers in the first quarter, scoring a total of 17 points, becoming the player with the most points in the team.
58 to 40, the Crane City players walked back to the locker room with their heads bowed. Before the game, they also fantasized about winning the Ice City University and exulted in the province!
But the reality is so cruel and ruthless, leaving young players with a deep sense of powerlessness.
Zhang Tiejun was holding the tactical drawing board and wanted to say something to boost morale, but he swallowed again. He is very aware of the 28 points behind, and it is almost impossible to catch it under the defense of the ice city.
“Coach, I want to play early in the third quarter!” In the silence, Liu Xiaodong’s voice reached everyone’s ears.
Looking at Liu Xiaodong’s combative eyes, Zhang Tiejun’s heart seemed to be hit hard by something.
“Coach, I want to play early in the third quarter too!” Yanagi shouted, aroused by the desire to win.
“Coach, we want to play early too!” All the players who woke up immediately also shouted. They know the strength of Ice City University, but so what? The game is not over yet!
“Okay! Xiaodong continues to stay on the court in the third quarter, Hou Wei will take a break below!”
“Adjust the defensive tactics. If Du Weibin is on the field, Xiaodong will change defense, Qian Ning will defend Yuan Fang, and the others will defend alone. Don’t worry about Du Weibin. If he doesn’t play, he will defend according to the original matchup! As for the offense, Guo Cheng Cooperate with Liu Mu to play the pick-and-roll, and the others will run back looking for opportunities!” Zhang Tiejun handed over the defensive task to Liu Xiaodong, hoping that others could focus more on offense.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, Bingcheng University played all substitutes, which left a glimmer of opportunities for the fighting spirit Crane City players.
Under the cover of Liu Mu’s pick and roll, Guo Cheng broke through to the free throw line and faced the ice city center who had switched over and passed the ball to Liu Mu who rushed into the three-second zone. The latter took advantage of his height in front of the opposing point guard. Throw into the basket. 58 to 42
There is no main force to help contain, the ice city college substitute players are a bit far-fetched on offense. The ice city center faced Willow, who was half-rested, and wanted to turn around and shoot, but was fanned by Willow.
Liu Xiaodong’s eyes were quick and he stopped the ball and ran towards halftime. Bingcheng University’s backup shooting guard did not respond slowly, he blocked Liu Xiaodong from outside the three-point line.
After two consecutive fake moves, Liu Xiaodong passed the ball to Channing, who ran to the corner, and the latter easily hit a three-pointer~www.mtlnovel.com~45
After , Crane City University blossomed inside and outside, and the players finally recovered their offensive feeling. Guo Cheng ran back and forth, constantly sending exquisite assists to his teammates.
The game lasted for 7 minutes, and Tsukushi University recovered 15 points. This made Coach Zhang Tiejun very excited, and at the same time it made Coach Yu Bing a little angry. He knew that these benches on the field were the bottom of the team, and asked them to go up just to exercise, but he didn’t expect such a muddy support. Go to the wall!
“Du Weibin, Wang Meng, and Li Xiaohu are ready to play! Now the Hecheng University is on the rise. Don’t take it lightly, especially you Wang Meng. You must guard the restricted area and pay attention to the defense against Liu Mu.” Yu Bing finished. He got up and walked to the referee’s bench and called a timeout.
“Everyone played well! We must continue to work hard! Xiaodong, I guess Du Weibin is about to play, you must be close to him when defending him, don’t leave him shooting space. If he passes you, you too Don’t worry, we still have Liu Mu and Zhu Zihua on the inside!” Zhang Tiejun’s words of course relieved Liu Xiaodong. He knew that he could not find an existence that could completely prevent Du Weibin in the whole province. Most of them are enthusiasm and hard work.
“The game restarted. Bingcheng University replaced the five main players. It seems that coach Yu Bing wants to end the game soon! And Crane City University is still the original five players. I feel very much about their physical strength. Worry!” The host of the Provincial Sports Channel is very firm and definitely supports his own team.
“There is no way for Crane City University. Now the morale of the players is booming. If they change to rest, their previous efforts will be in vain.” Old Hu knew that the current Crane City University was taking a sigh of relief and absolutely cannot relax, otherwise They will fail
