Rebirth of Basketball Boy

It’s about an hour’s drive between Shuiyun and Yantai. The minibus left Shuiyun No. 1 Middle School at 7 a.m. and arrived at the Yongan Basketball Stadium at about 8:30. The competition opens at 9 a.m., so As soon as he got off the bus, Xu Jianye hurriedly greeted the team members to gather.

The development of mass sports in Yantai is still very common. Therefore, even though it is only a basketball game for high school students, there are still a lot of spectators who enter by ticket. Whether the ticket is given or not, their ability to watch the game itself is a support for school sports. .

The work of the competition organizing committee is still meticulous. Before Xu Jianye came to the door, a staff member wearing a badge greeted him and asked politely, "May I ask if you are here to participate in the basketball game? Your team?"

"Yes, we are the basketball team of Shuiyun No. 1 Middle School. Are you?" Xu Jianye smiled and nodded, took out the qualification certificate from his arms and handed it to the staff.

The staff took a look at it with both hands and handed it back to Xu Jianye, saying: "I am a staff member of the organizing committee of this event. My name is Yang. Please come with me, everyone. The opening ceremony will begin soon."

After a brief singing and dancing performance, members of eight teams from the Yantai area lined up and stepped onto the arena. Of course, they were not going to compete soon, they were just forced to become part of the opening ceremony.

"What are you doing? It's not about asking us all to do radio gymnastics?" Han Dengyun scratched his head and asked suspiciously.

"Is the opening ceremony without the leader's speech? Stupid pig!" Sun Feiying curled his lips in disdain, saying that the specifications of an event depend on what level of cadre the leader of the speech is. Sun Feiying just glanced at it, as if **On the stage sat a deputy mayor. Of course, this deputy mayor is the deputy mayor of Yantai City, a serious deputy department-level cadre, so the specifications of this basketball game are actually acceptable.

“By holding a basketball game, we can enrich our classmates’ after-school life and exercise their bodies. At the same time, basketball is a collective sport, a good way to embody the spirit of unity and cooperation of students, and can cultivate students’ sense of collective honor. Create an atmosphere of solidarity..."

The leader of this Zhangkou classmate who shuts his mouth is obviously educated. Although it looks kind and amiable, it is not small.

Yan Lingfeng yawned boredly. The most annoying thing about him was the lengthy official speech. The old lady's footcloth was smelly and long but he couldn't smell it.There are also many people who feel the same way. The leaders above are eloquent, and the players below are also talking about each other.There are very few people who really listen to his speech.

After finally waiting for the leader to put down the microphone, but another leader was used to hypnotize, and an old lady's footwear was not long enough, then another one was wrong.

"Let’s ask Wang ** of our event organizing committee to talk about the rules of the game. I hope you can listen carefully and familiarize yourself with it in advance!"

The host’s words immediately silenced the noisy team members. They could not listen carefully to the leader’s speech, but the rules of the game must be listened to. After all, this is closely related to their interests.

"The game time of this competition is divided into four quarters, each quarter is ten minutes, the inter-period rest is 10 minutes, the intermission is 20 minutes, there is an overtime game, that is, if the two teams are tied in the regular time, it will be played Overtime lasts for 5 minutes, each time is 5 minutes until the winner is determined. Each team has a timeout opportunity in each quarter, and each overtime game also has a timeout opportunity. There is no limit to the number of substitutions in each quarter. There are two referees and two scorers in the game. Foul sanctions. A player who fouls five times or two technical fouls in a game will be sentenced to leave the field. Each team fouls up to 4 per quarter. After the second time, the opponent will free throw twice for subsequent fouls. Players and behaviors that maliciously foul in the game will be punished to varying degrees depending on the severity of the situation."

This leader does not actually look like a leader. His words are concise and to the point. It took less than 5 minutes to introduce the rules and requirements related to the game.

The host picked up the microphone again and called out the finale leader. It was also the deputy mayor with the highest hat of the court official who was present today. The deputy mayor looked like a treasure, and after a majestic glance at the players in the court, he gave a light cough. The voice said: "Dear students and spectators, good morning! First of all, on behalf of the Yantai Municipal Party Committee and Government, I would like to express the importance of this basketball tournament. Mass sports and campus sports are important components of our national fitness. Our students It should be the pillar of the comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, and physical fitness, not a flower in the greenhouse. Regarding this competition, I put forward the following requirements. First of all, the participating teams must keep in mind that friendship is first and competition is second! Two points, the game must be conducted under the principles of fairness, fairness, and openness. The referees of the game must enforce the law strictly and impartially. Players and coaches on both sides of the game must respect all the referee's penalties, and must not attack or interfere with the referee, and must not play match-fixing. Three o'clock..."

Deputy Mayor Lin Lin always said more than a dozen points, but after his first point, almost no one listened to it.The shit "friendship first, competition second", if that's the case, then just don't set up a championship. The big guys are confused and fight, and then go home with the friendship of their peers. Isn't it over?

After the deputy mayor finished his speech, it was time to draw a lottery to make people nervous. Although everyone did not know the strength of each team very well, there would always be high and low points. If you are lucky, you will be a little bit worse. Opponent, then one step closer to the championship.

There are exactly eight teams participating in this basketball game, paired against each other, and the top four teams will emerge after one game is determined.

The first two teams drawn out will go to the opening match, and Shuiyun No. 1 Middle School was drawn out. Their opponent is Yantai No. 2 Middle School which represents the economic development zone, a well-known "100-year-old school", of course. This "name" refers more to education and teaching. As for their basketball level, it is hard to say.

The other three groups also quickly surfaced. Changdao No. 6 Middle School was drawn to Yantai No. 3 Middle School, Laiyang No. 1 Middle School was drawn to Laizhou No. 1 Middle School, and Muping Yuying Middle School was drawn to Longkou No. 1 Middle School.

After the draw was over, the players gathered in the field quickly dispersed, and the opening game was about to start.

Xu Jianye greeted the players to his side, his face was filled with unconcealable nervousness. Although the number of spectators at the scene was not full, the stadium with a capacity of 5,000 people also sat 60% to 70%.Xu Jianye has never had such an experience before directing the game in front of so many people.Although in the car he vowed to win the championship, in fact he didn't have much confidence in his heart, knowing himself and the enemy can be a hundred battles, but he knows nothing about his opponent.

Despite this, Xu Jianye took a long breath and tried to stabilize his heartbeat. If his coach can't hold back, can he expect the players to play peacefully?His gaze swept across the players slowly, and he said in a deep voice: "In 10 minutes, you will be on the court. All the sweat and all the efforts you have made will be rewarded at this moment. Are you nervous?"

"I'm not nervous, just look at the coach, as long as you let me play, we will definitely show off our power, get angry, and beat our opponents magnificently!"

Han Dengyun confidently patted his chest and replied, he is really not nervous. As a person with a relatively simple brain, he will always have a heart that refuses to accept defeat, even if his opponent is the invincible Di Shitian, he will think The method incarnate becomes a combination of Fengyun.

"What about you?" Xu Jianye habitually ignores Han Dengyun, and he understands it. The more you pay attention to this guy, the more vigorous he is, so the best way to deal with him is to ignore him.

"It's a little nervous, haha." Yan Lingfeng said frankly, what he said was really what he said. Although he lived ten or twenty years longer than his teammates, he had never experienced such a big scene.

"To be honest, I am also a little nervous, but this is normal. I believe our opponents are also nervous now. Now it depends on who can turn tension into motivation for the game in the shortest possible time, and who can get it. The final victory. I won’t say much about the importance of this game. You should know that if we lose this game, we will lose everything, all efforts will be wasted, and all the sweat will not be exchanged. In return. So, go up and fight to your heart's content, without leaving the slightest regret."

Xu Jianye had already mobilized before the race in the car, so after just a few brief words, he shifted his thoughts to the race itself. After taking the tactical board, he frowned and thought about it: "I just observed Our opponents, their height is generally not very high, so I boldly guess that they will focus on the outside and suppress us through aggressive running and fast transmission of the ball. Han Dengyun, you just clamored for playing, right?"

Han Dengyun immediately nodded with a flattering smile: "Yes, coach! As long as you give me a broken basket, I can return your basket of eggs! Believe me, you can't be wrong!"

"Well, since you said that, then I will let you play! The other starters are Li Yi, Yan Lingfeng, Sun Feiying and Zhao Senming. We will focus on the inside in the first quarter. Senming, you must pay attention to controlling the rhythm of the game. Don’t let your opponents lead us by the nose. Give the ball to teammates on the inside for singles, so that even if we don’t score, we won’t give them a chance to strike back quickly, understand?"

Zhao Senming nodded calmly. Compared with Bi Xiangyang and Wang Hanbo, his biggest advantage lies in his control of the rhythm.In the team, he will always be the coolest one, and Xu Jianye will be relatively relieved to let him play and organize the offense.

As for Sun Feiying and Yan Lingfeng, the two of them are the most stable of all the players, so Xu Jianye arranged for them to start and it was not unexpected.

"Good morning, my friends in front of the TV. Welcome to the opening match of the 2004 Yantai First High School Basketball Tournament, which was broadcast live on the Life Channel of Yantai Satellite TV. The opponents are Yantai No. 2 Middle School and Shuiyun No. 1 Middle School. The members of this team have already warmed up on the court. According to my on-site visual observations, the height of Yantai No. 2 Middle School is generally a bit shorter than their opponents, which also made the game full of suspense before the start. As we all know, basketball is one. The sports of the giants, the so-called one inch long and one inch strong, one inch short and one inch risk, we are also very curious now, which team will be stronger. Teacher Deng, don't know what you think?"

Although Xiao Cui, the ace host of Yantai TV, is the first time to explain sports games, he does not have the slightest sense of jerky. After all, he is also a basketball fan on weekdays. He does not watch NBA broadcasts in his spare time. I got it on my own initiative.As a young variety show host who wants to continue his hosting career, he must broaden the scope of his hosting, and explaining sports is undoubtedly a good choice.

Sitting next to him is Deng Mingliang, a basketball professor at Yantai Sports University. He is more than 50 years old this year. He has played basketball for most of his life. Although there is a certain reason for making a living, it is more because of pure love.Knowing that the TV station is going to broadcast the event throughout, I took the initiative to go to the TV station and volunteered for this errand. After all, watching the game in the commentary is more clear than the audience.

"Before the game officially starts, all speculations are objective. The two teams are unfamiliar to us. We don't even know their names, so I think it's time to wait for the game to start before judging. not late."

Deng Mingliang responded with an authentic Jiao Dongfang dialect. His eyes were turning around the warm-up members of the two teams like a torch, hoping to find a good seedling, which he planned to bring back to the school for personal cultivation.

Seeing the players warming up on the court, Xu Jianye's brows frowned tightly. He suddenly realized a very fatal problem, a problem that could make them bitter and defeated, but now he wants to solve this problem. It's too late.He sighed heavily, praying in his heart that his worries would not become reality.
