Basketball is Faith - Chapter 7

　　 “Dear leaders, guests, and friends of the audience, good morning everyone!”

“Welcome to Hecheng University Gymnasium to watch the 2007 College League qualifiers.”

“First of all, let us use the warmest applause to welcome the home team and Tsurumi University players!” the male host shouted in a generous and powerful voice.

“Let’s go, let’s play!” Yanagi shouted to the teammates who had arranged the order of appearance, and was the first to run out of the player tunnel.

Crane City University players ran out one by one, Liu Xiaodong, as a potential new star of the team’s recruitment, was arranged by the coach at the end of the team.

Hearing the huge cheers from the entrance of the tunnel, Liu Xiaodong’s heart could not be calmed down, and he began to beat violently again. He stared blankly at the dazzling light from the entrance of the passage, as if there was another world, calling to himself!

“It’s time for you to play, don’t be too nervous, this is just a new beginning, you will quickly adapt to this atmosphere!” Zhang Tiejun walked behind Liu Xiaodong and patted him on the shoulder.

“I know, coach!” After Liu Xiaodong finished speaking, he ran towards the passageway.

“Come on, the future star!” Zhang Tiejun looked at Liu Xiaodong’s back and said silently, and walked towards the entrance of the passage, which was also the battlefield for his struggle!

“Crane City, come on! Crane City, come on!” 5118 Crane City University students in the audience cheered the home team with uniform shouts.

The huge shout came into Liu Xiaodong’s ears. He raised his head and looked at the stands. They were all in the gray uniform color of Hecheng University.

“look here!”

Liu Xiaodong looked to see that a male cameraman from Crane City TV was adjusting the angle of the camera to point him. Liu Xiaodong turned his head shyly and quickly ran to the home team bench.

“It seems that our future star is still a bit implicit. I don’t know if he is ready for today’s game?” In the commentary, former Tsuraki retired “famous pitcher” Liu Qiliang explained. As a former basketball player in Crane City, his commentary can always surprise the audience in front of the TV.

After the players of the two teams finished their warm-up shots, the starting players started to stand. Hecheng University started: point guard Guo Cheng, shooting guard Hou Wei, small forward Qianning, power forward Zhu Zihua, center Liu Mu.

University of Chemical Technology starting: point guard Yang Ming, shooting guard Wu Jiangtao, small forward Zhang Qi, power forward Zheng Kai, center Wang Xiaoli.

“I didn’t see Liu Xiaodong on the court. It seems that coach Zhang Tiejun attaches great importance to this game and does not want to use newcomers to take unnecessary risks!” Liu Qiliang commented jokingly. He very much agrees with Zhang Tiejun’s formation. No matter how good Liu Xiaodong’s performance in high school is, he still needs time to adjust to a higher level of competition.

At the start of the game, Liu Mu used his experience to get the ball in front of Wang Xiaoli.

Hecheng University attacked in the first round, which allowed the University of Chemical Technology to see their pick-and-roll cooperation. Guo Cheng controlled the ball to the three-point line and used Liu Mu’s pick and roll to pass Yang Ming into the penalty area. Facing Wang Xiaoli’s block, he flipped his wrist flexibly and passed the ball to Liu Mu, who was in Wang Xiao. The ball was dunked into the hoop before being neat.

University of Chemical Technology attacked, Liu Mu defended Wang Xiaoli, the inside pillars of the two teams began to confront the penalty area, Wang Xiaoli turned his back and turned and shot wide. The basketball was snatched by Zhu Zihua, who was assisting in the defense, and passed directly to Qian Ning, who stepped on the three-point line to throw the ball.

Hecheng University’s offensive and defensive efficiency was very high in the opening game. A simple pick-and-roll cooperation between Zhu Zihua and Hou Wei made the University of Chemical Technology lose sight of the other.

As for the University of Chemical Technology, the captain Wu Jiangtao seemed to have forgotten his shooting skills. No outside shots were made. Inside barrier Wang Xiaoli was even more successful in singles by Liu Mu.

Liumu was not idle during the winter vacation. He repeatedly watched Yao Ming’s game video and trained. He once again leaned against Wang Xiaoli with his back, and after pushing Wang Xiaoli away for a certain distance, he turned and hit a jumper.

At 5 minutes and 28 seconds in the first quarter, the University of Chemical Technology in the away game was behind by as much as 13 points. This irritated Li Jiacheng, the head coach who was still confident before the game.

“Pause, pause!”

Before the players returned to the bench, Li Jiacheng shouted to the team’s top attacker Wu Jiangtao: “Don’t always float on the outside and wait for opportunities, make more breakthroughs and make more inside kills!”

“Wang Xiaoli, what are you doing, Liu Mu is so difficult to deal with! You can think about what to do next on the bench, Li Yan!”

Wang Xiaoli wiped the saliva on his face, opened his mouth to express something, but did not dare to speak. He knew that the hot-tempered coach should not be offended when he was irritable.

Compared to the high temperature of the visiting team’s seat, the home team’s seat is much more peaceful. Coach Zhang Tiejun just replaced Hou Wei and Liu Mu to rest, replaced by Liu Xiaodong and Yu Fei.

“We see that the three main players of Hecheng University are still on the court. It seems that our future star is very popular with the coach!” Liu Qiliang said jokingly. He knows Zhang Tiejun very well and is good Basketball seedlings have always been caring.

“I’m going to play at last!” Looking at the gray crowd in the audience, two familiar figures were trying hard to wave and shout at them, Liu Xiaodong took a deep breath.

Parents are looking at themselves, you must show them well! Liu Xiaodong was thinking. Suddenly a strong palm was slapped on his shoulder. Guo Cheng shouted: “Don’t persuade, the guy who is facing you has been tossed by Hou Wei, as long as you follow the coach’s instructions. Do, he will not be your true opponent!”

Wu Jiangtao gritted his teeth and listened to Guo Cheng’s irony to him. He vowed to teach this newcomer an unforgettable lesson!

The game restarts~www.mtlnovel.com~Wu Jiangtao, who was a little tired, stared at Liu Xiaodong as if he had been beaten up.

Liu Xiaodong kept interspersing and running backwards, trying to get rid of Wu Jiangtao’s entanglement. But Wu Jiangtao is like a piece of brown candy sticking to Liu Xiaodong, no matter how he breaks free, it will block his receiving route for the first time.

Liu Xiaodong gasped and looked at the guy with super physical strength in front of him. He couldn’t figure out whether this guy would be tired. He didn’t hear his gasping.

Wu Jiangtao has a stern face, looks like a cold-blooded animal, staring sharply at the prey in front of him. But in fact, he is almost out of order, just holding on, he doesn’t want to lose his share in front of the newcomers!

Liu Xiaodong adjusted his breathing. The moment Wu Jiangtao blinked, he suddenly started to the right. Wu Jiangtao instinctively followed, but Liu Xiaodong slammed the brakes and rushed to the left.

Speed ​​is Liu Xiaodong’s advantage. As long as he gets rid of Wu Jiangtao’s entanglement, he cannot catch up with him.

Guo Cheng is the first main attacker on the field after Liu Mu is off, but he is an idol of Nash, who can pass the ball and will never attack. Seeing that Liu Xiaodong had a 45-degree angle to the left, he passed it without hesitation.

After receiving the ball, Liu Xiaodong fine-tuned his shot posture and prepared to shoot. Li Yan, the backup center of the University of Chemical Technology, suddenly jumped from the penalty area.

Liu Xiaodong instinctively increased his shooting speed. After the basketball drew a high arc in the air that was high enough to cross the backboard, it quickly fell into the audience.

Looking at the basketball close at hand, Zhao Dazhuang made a close contact with the basketball with his face dumbfounded.

The audience was dumbfounded and looked at the playback on the big screen. After a long time, a roar of laughter broke out in the stadium.
