Entertaining Children

   Chapter 925 Another Special Free Throw

After returning from a timeout, the Western Celebrities replaced the amateur Quincy Beasley with former professional player Carmon Blunt. The Western Celebrities’ substitution adjustment was originally intended to use Carmon Blunt to play against the former Eastern Conference professional Joey Bielsa, but the Eastern Celebrities took advantage of this timeout to replace Joey. Bilsa, replaced by the actor Jason Danfore.

  There must be no fast break opportunity after the timeout. After the Western Celebrities released the baseline, Robert Foden slowly took the ball to the front court, and the players on the court were seated separately. The Eastern Celebrities still have Xiao Yao standing at the top of the arc to defend the opposing point guard. The other three defenders have not changed. Jason Danfore, who is newly on the field, is standing at the 45th corner on the left side of the outside. Camon Blunt who went inside.

  In this way, Camon Blunt on the court has become the most dominant point of the Western Celebrities. After Robert Foden came to the top of the arc, he raised his hand and gave the basketball to Camon Blunt.

Camon Blunt is more than two meters tall. When he is a professional player, he can play in the second, third, and fourth positions. He can play outside and inside, can throw and shoot, and can also play hard inside, but this time it is mixed. In the exhibition matches of amateur players, he did not intend to break through and play hard in the interior.

  After receiving the ball, Carmon Blunt did not intend to pass the ball, nor did he directly face Jason Danfore directly to pull a jumper, but made a gesture to Robert Foden.

  Robel Foden knew, and immediately ran to Jason Danfore's side and made a one-block screen for Carmon Blunt. Camon Blunt dribbled the ball to Robert Foden's side, and Xiao Yao who followed Robert Foden immediately stopped and turned around to follow Camon Blunt.

  After Robert Foden finished the screen, he immediately ran away to the other side. Jason Danfor feared that the two would do a pick-and-roll, and saw Xiao Yao going to defend Carmon Blunt, so he changed defense with Xiao Yao and chased Robert Foden.

After Camon Blunt moved to the top of the arc, he stopped and turned to face the hoop. At the same time, he lowered his center of gravity slightly, and looked at Xiao Yao who was defending himself in front of him with serious expression.

   "What are you doing?" Xiao Yao was a little baffled by Carmon Blunt.

  Kamon Blunt's shoulder moved, Xiao Yao immediately raised his arm and jumped up. No way, the height difference between the two was nearly 20 centimeters. If Xiao Yao didn't jump up, he would not be able to effectively interfere with Carmon Blunt's shooting. It turned out that Camon Blunt was just a fake move and didn't take off at all.

After swaying Xiao Yao to his feet, Carmon Blunt did not take the opportunity to break through. Instead, he waited for Xiao Yao to fall down before jumping with a basketball in his hand, and he still jumped forward, which seemed to be intentional. Collided with Xiao Yao in the air.

"Damn it! Foul to score four points?!" Xiao Yao immediately understood what the other party wanted to do, and yelled in his heart, and quickly raised his raised arms back, and at the same time he used his waist and abdomen to stop his life. Leaning forward, and turning sideways slightly.

Camon Blunt really wanted to trick Xiao Yao into making a foul, but he wanted to make this three-pointer and make another free throw, not three free throws, so he didn't want to make the two strong. They bumped into each other, just wanting Xiao Yao to rub himself. As a result, Xiao Yao raised his hand in the air and turned sideways, just to avoid the contact between the two.

  Although Carmon Blunt did not deceive Xiao Yao's foul, he still made this three-pointer.

   "Blount hit a three-pointer!" Li Jun said in the commentary.

"Blount wanted to trick Xiao Yao into fouling the ball and wanted to score four points. Fortunately, Xiao Yao reacted quickly and didn't let Blunt succeed." Zhang Yuan laughed, "I didn't expect just an exhibition game, Blunt He actually took out his unique skills."

  Before Camon Blunt retired, the outside line tricked the defensive players into foul play four points is one of his signature play, this one naturally can not escape the eyes of those professional basketball commentators.

"Is the Western Celebrity team trying to get Xiao Yao down?" Li Jun also laughed. "Although the Celebrity Tournament had five fouls and left the game, there was one less time than the US NBA. The problem was that Xiao Yao fouled once in the first half. No, I am afraid it will be difficult to get Xiao Yao's five criminals to leave the field."

"The celebrity game is an exhibition game. The referees' whistle-blowing scales are generally relatively loose. It seems that no one has been fined for five fouls in history!" Zhang Yuan also continued, "The Western Celebrities team's tactics are a bit whimsical, right? ."

  Offensive and defensive transition, when Xiao Yao dribbled to the top of the arc in the opponent's half, he found that all four teammates were being looked at tightly, and he started to accelerate and directly beat Robert Foden. Robert Foden's reaction and steps were not slow, and he immediately followed Xiao Yao with his arms open.

  In the process of breaking through, Xiao Yao's eyes were also staring at the left and right. It was discovered that except for Robert Foden, no one else came to help defend, so an emergency stop jumper came outside the three-second zone.

  Offense is active, defense is passive. As a passive defender, he is relatively inferior. What's more, Xiao Yao's previous breakthrough was either a pass, a layup or a dunk, and he had never taken a shot at a mid-to-long distance. Robert Foden didn't expect that Xiao Yao would come to an emergency stop. During the process of retreating, he couldn't stop in time, and Xiao Yao was thrown away by more than one step. Although he quickly adjusted his weight and raised his arms and jumped, it did not cause much interference to Xiao Yao's shot.

  Without much interference, Xiao Yao's CIC made a steady hit this time.

   "Xiao Yao broke through, he made an emergency stop and made a hit!" Li Jun smiled in the commentary booth.

   "This goal can be said to be the success of Xiao Yao's singles against Fodeng!" Zhang Yuan also smiled and said, "I don't know if Fodeng will return Xiao Yao one back."

After the offensive and defensive transition, Robert Foden was also a direct hit. However, Xiao Yao had been slammed by Robert Foden once before, and this time he had some experience. As soon as Robert Foden's shoulder moved, Xiao Yao immediately adjusted his center of gravity and prepared to retreat. When Robert Foden accelerated and started, Xiao Yao immediately started to retreat and followed in the footsteps of Robert Foden.

Zhuo Zhi foresight at the basket saw Robert Foden stiffly from the right side, and immediately moved a step to the left. It not only opened the space for Robert Foden, but also gave Robert Foden a breakthrough. The splitting creates a passing route.

  However, Robert Foden did not directly hit the basket against Xiao Yao, nor did he pass the ball. Instead, just like Xiao Yao’s last ball, he made an emergency stop jumper when he rushed to the sideline of the three-second zone.

   Xiao Yao was also shaken by Robert Foden's sudden stop, but his reaction was very quick, and he quickly stepped forward, raised his arm and jumped up. Xiao Yao's height is about the same as Robert Foden, but because he is a teenager, he is much better than Robert Foden in jumping. When Robert Foden made a jump shot, Xiao Yao's hand was sealed in front of him.

  Under the interference of Xiao Yao, Robert Foden missed the shot this time, and the basketball bounced out after smashing it on the rim.

   Zhuo Zhiyuan and Ben Skuer under the basket took off at the same time to grab rebounds. Ben Skool, who is a bit stronger, touched the basketball first, but couldn't control it. Before he grabbed the basketball in his hand, Zhuo Zhiyuan, who also jumped up but in a slightly lower position, stretched out his hand to play on the basketball and knocked the basketball out of his hands.

  When the basketball hit the rim, Xiao Yao and Robert Foden had already landed. Seeing the basketball being hit by Zhuo Zhiyuan to the bottom line on the right, Xiao Yao and Robert Foden started to rush towards the basketball's landing spot at the same time.

   Xiao Yao jumped up first and grabbed the basketball in the air, but judging from Xiao Yao's momentum, he would definitely step outside the bottom line when he landed. Xiao Yao, who was in the air, also knew this, so before he landed, he hugged the basketball with his hands and threw it behind him.

   Xiao Yao used both hands in this throw. The strength was not small, and the arc was also high. The basketball crossed the Eastern Celebrity team's half court and flew straight to the opposite half.

When the basketball flew to the Western Celebrities half court, a figure wearing a blue team uniform rushed forward, almost two or three steps away, followed by a figure wearing a gold team uniform. .

   "It's Rita again!" Li Jun shouted from the commentary.

   "She is really the most active one in the east side of the fast break!" Zhang Yuan sighed with a smile.

  It turned out that after Robert Foden took a shot, Rita Mitchell immediately turned around and was about to rush towards the opponent's half. With her move, Bill Justin, who was defending her next to her, also immediately turned around, ready to follow her back.

When the basketball hit the rim and bounced out, and neither Zhuo Zhiyuan nor Ben Skool grabbed the rebound, Bill Justin was attracted by the fight for the ownership of the basketball. He wanted to see who grabbed the ball in the end. Rita Mitchell saw that Xiao Yao and Robert Foden were going to grab the "second spot", and immediately turned and rushed towards the opposite half. So when the basketball flew to the Western Celebrities halftime, Rita Mitchell had already thrown Bill Justin two or three steps away.

Xiao Yao threw the ball out with his back to the opponent's basket. Although the basketball flew to the Western Celebrities halftime, it did not fall directly in front of Rita Mitchell. Rita Mitchell had to adjust the direction. , Ran a small slash to catch the ball, and then turned to the opponent's basket. In this way, Bill Justin, who was chasing behind him, was given a chance.

After Rita Mitchell rushed into the basket with the ball in the three-second zone, instead of holding the ball to start the layup, he stopped at the basket and made a shooting posture, chasing Bill Justin, and immediately held it. The arm jumped up.

  However, Rita Mitchell didn't make a direct shot and lowered the arm that raised the basketball. After Bill Justin, who was chasing from behind, flew in front of her, Rita Mitchell raised the basketball again and made a good shot at the basket.

  "Wow~" Rita Mitchell succeeded in this fast break and won applause and cheers from many audiences on the scene.

   "During the fast break, the fake action shook the chaser behind and then shot the ball. The goddess played really calmly!" Li Jun in the commentary booth smiled and praised.

"Mitchell is really good at playing!" Zhang Yuan also praised, "every fast break is very positive and does not say, he also knows his strengths and weaknesses. There was a fast break in the first half by Haywood from behind. After catching up to cover it, I changed my strategy this time."

  After the ball came back, the Western Celebrities finally stopped playing Xiao Yao again. Robert Foden passed the basketball to Bill Justin, who took the ball and drew it past Rita Mitchell's defense. Seeing Ben Skool turned a step outside, it seemed that he wanted to come out to make up for defense. Bill Justin didn't rush to the basket, and shot a shot directly from a position within the three-point line.

Bill Justin failed to make this long shot, but Zhuo Zhiyuan at the basket took advantage of Ben Skool's opportunity to move a step outside to seize a more favorable position at the basket and jumped to take it. This rebound.

After winning this rebound, Zhuo Zhiyuan shot directly from the basket, but under the interference of Ben Skuer who turned back to defense, Zhuo Zhiyuan's shot from the basket did not make a shot, and the basketball hit the basket again. Came out.

This time, Zhuo Zhiyuan took advantage of his bullet speed and jumped again quickly to take the rebound, but when he fell, he was squeezed by Ben Skool, who was moved to the inside, and his center of gravity was unstable when he landed. The whole person almost fell, and the basketball in his hand also lost control and fell to the ground.

Jason Danfur, who moved to the inside line, immediately leaned over to grab the ball. Zhuo Zhiyuan quickly grabbed the basketball with his eyesight, but at this time he was about to fall and he was destined to be unable to control the basketball, so he hurried. Throw the basketball at Scott Carl before the fall.

  At this time, Will Foster suddenly shot out from behind Scott Carl, reached out and broke the basketball. Will Foster, who successfully intercepted the ball, dribbled the ball towards the opponent's half. Xiao Yao and Rita Mitchell immediately followed, taking up the fast break initiated by Will Foster.

  Will Foster goes straight in the middle, Rita Mitchell is on the left and Xiao Yao is on the right, forming a three-line fast break trend. For the Eastern Celebrities, Robert Foden, Bill Justin, and Scott Carr, who were intercepted, quickly returned to defense. Bill Justin still followed Rita Mitchell, Robert Foden at the front followed Will Foster, and Scott Carl, who was a little behind, followed Shaw at the bottom. remote.

  Will Foster decelerated slightly and glanced at Xiao Yao on the right, then suddenly accelerated, directly holding the ball and layup. Robert Foden, who was defending him, was slightly shaken by Will Foster, but he was not completely thrown away, and he raised his arms and jumped up with Will Foster. Although Will Foster was not covered by Robert Foden, he was still disturbed. This time he did not make a layup.

When Xiao Yao, Scott Carl and Bill Justin on the left saw Will Foster make a layup, they all rushed to the basket for rebounds. Only the petite Rita Mitchell did not rush to join in the fun. .

After the basketball bounced twice on the backboard and the rim, it fell to the side closer to Bill Justin, but Xiao Yao took advantage of his height and bounce to get ahead of Bill Justin and took it off his head. This rebound.

After landing, Xiao Yao raised the basketball and waved in the direction of Rita Mitchell. Bill Justin immediately took a step back and prepared to turn around to defend Rita Mitchell. Xiao Yao did not pass the ball. Instead, he took advantage of Bill Justin’s backward step and shot the basketball to the ground. With this dribble, he adjusted his body's center of gravity, and then he pressed against the dribble behind him. Kurt Carr forced his shot from the basket.

  "嘀~"

   "Pop! Whoops!"

  The referee’s whistle sounded, and the basketball bounced off the backboard and fell into the basket. The referee immediately gestured to indicate that the two points were valid and an additional penalty kick was added. It turned out that when Xiao Yao forced a shot from the basket, Scott Carr fouled the defender.

   "Good goal! Two plus one, Xiao Yao scored and also got a chance to add a penalty." Li Jun exclaimed happily.

"This is the first time that Xiao Yao has stood on the free throw line in this field." Zhang Yuan smiled. "Tonight we have seen Xiao Yao pass the ball from behind. I don't know if we will see his so-called Urinary penalties? These two actions were Xiao Yao's first at the charity match that year. I believe that many viewers are still fresh in their memories."

"I also remember the free throw action!" Li Jun also said, "Although the name is not very elegant and the action looks a bit...but it is indeed a very novel and interesting free throw method. The audience will feel very happy to see it, but it is quite It fits the atmosphere of today's celebrity performance."

   When the two commentators were talking, Xiao Yao was already on the free throw line. After receiving the basketball from the referee hitting the ground, Xiao Yao did not squat down with the ball in both hands as the two commentators had guessed, and made a urinal free throw. Instead, he suddenly turned around and stood with his back to the basket. .

  "What is this?" Many people showed strange expressions.

   "Does Xiao Yao want to throw a handful with his back on his back?" Li Jun smiled in the commentary, "This is too random, right?"

After turning around, Xiao Yao first lowered his head and adjusted his position to make sure that he was standing in the middle of the free throw line. Then he bent back, and tried his best to lift his head back, bending himself into a bow shape. After seeing the reflection of the basket behind him, Xiao Yao used a shooting technique to pull the basketball back out. After the basketball shot, Xiao Yao also straightened up and turned around.

  The basketball crossed an arc, hit the center of the box in the middle of the backboard, and fell into the basket after rebounding.

  "Yeah~" Seeing the basketball enter the frame, Xiao Yao moved back and raised his hands triumphantly.
