Chapter 396 The Second Showdown

The conversation between father and son ended without a problem.

The cool night wind blew up from below, Zhong Yu said: "It's getting late, you should rest early, I'm going back too."

Zhong Guoxiao nodded, and Zhong Yu continued, "I'll pick you up tomorrow morning, and we'll cook something delicious...Anyway, I'm also friends with Yao Ming, so if we go out to eat, we'll be alienated. It's better to be kind."

Zhong Guoxiao still just nodded.

Zhong Yu shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, then pushed open the door and walked out...

Today's chat really broke up, and no one was able to convince anyone in the end, but Zhong Yu also roughly knew Zhong Guoxiao's attitude.

However, there are some things that Zhong Guoxiao can't decide for him... He is 22 years old and has his own choices.

The road is chosen by himself. Although he doesn't want to fall into the cliche and say that he has to walk on his knees, at least he will stick to it, unless one day, he really can't walk.

But it’s not that someone told him that you can’t walk this road.

…………

The next day, a Yao Ming really came to Zhong Yu's house.

Yao Ming also knew that Zhong Yu's family situation was complicated, and he did bring gifts here today, and he came earlier, it seemed that he really came to help.

Zhong Yu accepted his gift with a wry smile, and said, "You're serious...I was just joking with you. I really brought the gift..."

"Forget it then." Seeing that Yao Ming was about to take back the gift, Zhong Yu snatched it over: "Look at you, I'm so sorry that you'll be charged for a visit."

Yao Ming laughed: "You really are..."

Then Zhong Yu said: "Go and watch TV on the sofa... If you want to eat apples, you can peel them yourself, don't worry, I just bought them a month ago, they are still fresh!"

Yao Ming smiled helplessly again, Zhong Yu is always like that.

Then, Zhong Guoxiao met Yao Ming, this guy was like a fan of Yao Ming...

…………

On this day, Yao Ming was relatively happy at Zhong Yu's house.

After walking out the door, Zhong Yu sent him off, and the two chatted as they walked.

"Have you been invited to this year's Sri Lanka Cup?" Yao Ming asked.

"It's said above, that's what it means. Although it seems to be an invitation, you still have to go." Zhong Yu shook his head and said with a wry smile.

"I've already sent a notice." Yao Ming said this, and his face was a little unhappy: "Those people don't care about your real situation, they just want you to participate."

Zhong Yu also nodded, and then said with a smile: "Whatever, to be honest, my current attitude is, except for the competitions that I think are particularly important, otherwise, I will participate, but let me fight with real swords and guns. , I will not do it... If it is really for the honor of a country, then I am obliged, but it is only for a matter of face, then I will not accompany you."

Yao Ming said with a smile: "You are only 22 years old, just like an old fritter... that's all. Play when you change to play, forget it when you shouldn't play. However, with your current physical fitness and skills, Sri Lanka Those opponents in the Cup really can't find anyone who can fight you well."

"I hope so."

Zhong Yu nodded and said.

The two of them didn't talk about the game, so they would be accidentally embarrassed when they could.

The next day, the second game between the Hornets and the Rockets began, still at the Hornets' home stadium in New Orleans.

An hour before the game started, someone came in the arena. Now is the time for the playoffs, and it is also a critical moment for the Hornets to play in the second round. There are too many fans.

So, it's not the same as the regular season.

Fans have to enter the arena very early, and then find their seats and sit down.

Moreover, when they are at the door, many of them will paint their faces, which are usually painted with the main colors of the Hornets, and some fans will paste the hornet with the Hornets logo.

The Hornets’ home court has a complete set of things for fans, including equipment that makes noise, as well as some banners, posters, etc. Of course, most of the banners and posters are brought by the players.

Among the banners brought by the fans today, the more important ones are those of Zhong Yu and Paul, as well as those of the Hornets as a whole.

On the star poster, Zhong Yu has surpassed Paul, and Zhong Yu is even more popular than Paul in this city.

Of course, for the time being, everyone still supports Zhong Yu and Paul at the same time, and hope that their brothers will join hands to create a great cause.

After the whistle blows, the game has already started!The Hornets won the first jump ball, and Yao Ming did not try his best to jump. After all, a jump shot is not so important that Yao Ming can give up his health.

After Zhong Yu grabbed the basketball by himself, he didn't pass the ball, but controlled the ball by himself, after halftime.

The spectators beside the basketball court were all staring at Zhong Yu in the court at this moment, and they were also standing up. According to many rules, they did not sit down until the home team scored the first goal.

Zhong Yu controlled the ball and stood beyond the three-point line, pointed with his left hand, and West came over, and he handed the basketball to West.

West controlled the ball and was about to shoot a jump shot. Scola quickly defended him. Zhong Yu had already run into the paint at this time. His speed was so fast that he got rid of Battier, and West threw the basketball at him. In front of Yao Ming, Zhong Yu snatched the ball with quick eyes and hands, and then took a step forward!
Yao Ming pushed forward, Zhong Yu jumped high!

Yao Ming raised his hands to guard Zhong Yu, but he misjudged Zhong Yu's direction, Zhong Yu glides directly from Yao Ming's side to the other side of the basket, raised his hands high and then threw the basketball towards the basket The direction of the basket was smashed hard!
"Bang!"

Yao Ming took a slow shot and made a misjudgment, Zhong Yu's dunk hit the basket very viciously!
"Strike!" The fans next to the stadium waved their hands desperately, or cheered with posters in their hands. At the same time, many people activated their own devices that can make noise.

The entire arena became a sea of ​​noise. This kind of noise does not make people feel irritable, but a kind of blood boiling from the depths of their hearts.

Zhong Yu started the game with a slam dunk, which greatly boosted morale!
"Beautiful dunk!" Chandler rushed up and patted Zhong Yu on the head. Just as Zhong Yu finished coping, he jumped up and bumped Paul's chest in the air!
The two bounced back, Yao Ming looked at this scene, and felt really uncomfortable—the Hornets' configuration, this lineup...they really felt a little helpless.

He even had a sad foreboding—they seemed to be losing again in this game.

No way, the Hornets are really too strong.

Then, the Rockets started to attack. After receiving the pass from Xiaobu, Artest organized an attack from the outside. Then he broke through to the inside. Peja followed him. Zhong Yu came up and pretended to steal. Putting away the basketball, he saw Zhong Yu coming up to double-team and wanted to pass the ball to Battier.

But Zhong Yu cleverly got in the middle of his passing route. Artest could only turn around and plan to pass the basketball to Yao Ming inside. He knew it was not good just passing the ball...

Sure enough, Zhong Yu's right hand came out all of a sudden, grabbed his basketball in his arms, and completed a steal.

"Counterattack!" Zhong Yu yelled and passed the basketball to Paul. Paul threw the basketball to the front where he could grasp it, and then his body followed behind. Paul regained control of the basketball. Then throw it forward hard.

Chandler, who just followed, grabbed the basketball and took a step inside, and then flew into the air!

Xiao Bu, who was chasing him back, didn't dare to jump up and touch Chandler's brow. He could only watch him smash the basketball into the basket.

"boom!"

The sound of the dunk once again ignited the passion of the audience.

The Hornets opened with two dunks, and the momentum is mighty and majestic!

Zhong Yu and Chandler dunked one after another, giving the Hornets a 4-0 start. Yao Ming took the next ball very calmly, and he had to come up with some countermeasures for this ball.

Yao Ming received the basketball from the inside, and then turned left and right to look for opportunities. The moment he turned around for the third time, he had a premonition and quickly put away his basketball.

Sure enough, Zhong Yu's right hand just passed by his side - very dangerous.

Zhong Yu failed to steal, but Yao Ming made an early shot, but it was obvious that he had good luck with the ball. Yao Ming turned over in the air and made a small fadeaway jumper. The basketball hit the basket and Yao Ming scored two points.

4-2.
The Hornets had the ball, this time they missed the attack, the Rockets launched a counterattack, Artest hit a two-pointer near the free throw line, and finally got two points.

Then, the Hornets still missed a jumper, and the Rockets did not counterattack. The Hornets reorganized their offense.

Although it was only a few balls, except for the Hornets' fast break in the opening game, they played every ball very slowly. Several times they were delayed until there were only a few seconds left in the attack time.

So, time passed quickly.

Three minutes have passed so far, and now, the basketball is in the hands of Paul of the Hornets, and he suppresses the rhythm.In this era, Paul already has the embryonic form of the league's number one point guard, but he has a problem that many people in the league have widely criticized-he is a bit too sticky to the ball.

Of course, this is also determined by the team's situation. After Zhong Yu's rise to the Hornets, Paul's problem has also been corrected a lot, but this does not happen overnight.

He controlled the ball until the last 8 seconds left in the attack time before passing the ball to Zhong Yu.

After Zhong Yu received the pass, Battier followed up. Zhong Yu slapped the basketball on the ground, and then came a crotch to change hands and change directions, and then suddenly walked to the inside. After taking a big step into the inside, both hands The legs kick the ground, and the person has already jumped high!
Battier followed immediately, trying to block Zhong Yu's jump shot.

But Zhong Yu's shot was very fast, and his shot angle was very high, and he was a fadeaway jumper. Battier failed to block it successfully, and the basketball crashed into the basket!
6-2.
