Those hot basketball days

In the gymnasium of the Fengtian Olympic Sports Center, Zhu Hongguang stood in the locker room, quietly looking at the disciples who bowed their heads and were silent, quietly waiting for the start of the game.

The atmosphere in the locker room was a bit oppressive, maybe the enemy was at the moment, and everyone's heart was swallowed by a strong pressure.

Zhu Hongguang subconsciously wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

Let's talk about encouragement, I've already said it when I laid out my tactics before.

If you want to say comfort, the game hasn't started yet, and words of encouragement are too demoralizing.

As a coach, Zhu Hongguang felt a little incompetent.

In the face of the great enemy, he had already thought of all kinds of bold words, but when it came to the critical moment, he couldn't say anything.

"How are you all preparing?"

Zhu Hongguang finally spoke after being silent for a long time.

"Ready. The

team members raised their heads one after another, and said with seemingly firm eyes.

"Okay, I hope you don't have to be nervous and show our An Yigao style in front of these thousands of audiences!" Zhu Hongguang said seemingly firmly.

"Yes. The players shouted one after another, giving the coach an encouraging look.

Zhu Hongguang suddenly felt a touch of emotion.

The kids are all grown up, and they know that this game is very stressful, and they can take into account my feelings while stabilizing their emotions.

Just as he was about to say something, suddenly a burst of landslides and tsunamis-like cheering sounds faintly penetrated through the door, and in the quiet locker room, it seemed extremely clear:

Z high, Z high, invincible Z high! Everyone look at me, I look at you, and there is a wave of anger in their eyes.

The silence in the locker room was a little scary, I don't know who said at this time: "Damn, what kind of popularity is this in Dragon City, why is everyone competing in Fengtian, but they have so many supporters?"

Zhu Hongguang frowned and snorted angrily.

Damn, I don't know why my luck is so bad, the first team in the four groups, the second team in the four groups was drawn respectively, and there was a quarter probability that he would draw Dragon City, Zhu Hongguang thought about it, as long as he didn't draw Dragon City, then his team might still go further.

Of course, according to the current state of Dragon City, none of the four teams is willing to draw Dragon City in the quarterfinals!

As a result, the three teams that can fight against Dragon City, No. 1, No. 7, and No. 29, all avoided Dragon City and selected the fish belly teams from other groups. And his own team, which is relatively the worst in strength, has been drawn to Dragon City.

Zhu Hongguang once doubted that the lottery was not operated by the organizing committee in a dark box, but he had no evidence and could only guess out of thin air.

Although Anzhou City is a relatively large city in Yanning Province, the development of basketball is obviously not as good as other cities, and there are only a few basketball stars who have played famous for so many years.

After the group stage, Zhu Hongguang unexpectedly found that he might be able to lead the team to go further, that is, the top four in the province.

So he began to work overnight on the designated tactics and the training plan of the players, in order to create the best results in Anzhou high school basketball in Yanning Province for many years.

But he never expected that he would draw Longcheng

! This team, which is known as the "second place in the strongest group in history"!

Although Zhu Hongguang cried and scolded his mother in his heart, there was no way, who let himself draw lots.

Xu Changzhi, the captain and the team's top scorer, stood up and said, "Coach, it's time to go!" "Let's go!"

Zhu Hongguang stood up, sorted out his inner emotions, and then said with a big wave of his hand.

All the players stood up and walked out of the locker room with a domineering face.

Zhu Hongguang

sighed heavily, the matter has come to this, the players have such a firm belief, as a coach, what reason can he be so depressed?

Thinking

of this, Zhu Hongguang straightened out his suit and tie and firmly followed behind the players.

Looking at their lovely disciples, they have been able to stand out from dozens of middle schools in the city, and they have been able to come to this day, they have done very well. I have reason to believe that they will do better today!

As everyone got closer and closer to the competition venue, the cheers of the audience in the stadium became louder and louder.

Xu Changzhi touched his teammates in front of him, small forward Miao Zhuang, Miao Zhuang turned his head and asked puzzledly: "Boss, what's the matter?" "

Have you noticed that there is something wrong with the coach today, and he didn't say anything encouraging to us." Xu Changzhi asked in a low voice.

"I found it, but I don't think it matters, after all, the opponent is so strong, I don't think the coach knows what to say. Miao Zhuang's face obviously showed a helpless expression, but then it flashed.

"Heh, Dragon City is indeed very strong. Xu Changzhi smiled, and then said: "But we are not so weak, just fight with them to the end." "

That's right!" Miao Zhuang also showed a determined expression on his face.

Although each of them had a firm belief in their hearts, the moment they stepped on the court, they were still shocked by the earth-shattering cheers that were almost at home.

As if they were playing a Mukden team, they just entered the stadium and there were bursts of boos from the scene.

And this also made their hearts, which were originally as stable as Mount Tai, slowly become a little flustered.

Zhu Hongguang shook his head helplessly, it is true that Longcheng was the champion last year, but the game was also held in Mukden, why are they all fans?

In the face of the boos, Zhu Hongguang motioned to the players to say hello to each other, and then went on the field to warm up.

Looking at the reaction of their opponent Dragon City Z Gao, it seems that they didn't expect today's audience to be in such a state before the game, and they are obviously a little overwhelmed.

"What are you doing?" Jamin shot a basket and was startled by the flashing lights of reporters next to the arena.

"Hey, hey, didn't I expect us to be so popular now!" Ma Cheng on the side said: "Look at the stands in the west, there are a lot of girls, I must perform better, maybe I can get off the list this year!" Shi

Wenbo quickly shot a basket, and then said with a look of disdain: "You take off a chicken feather list, you take off the single, you are so ugly, who will look at it?"

Everyone laughed, and Ma Cheng shouted dissatisfiedly: "Damn, you want to die!" Seeing that Swenbo shot another basket, he immediately threw the ball in his hand and knocked the ball he threw away.

"Damn, are you sick? Shi Wenbo shouted dissatisfiedly: "Why are you angry with me if you don't have a girlfriend

?" Ma Cheng smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

Shi Wenbo smiled and replied: "Don't worry, brother, I'll tell Wenwen when I go back, if there is a little sister to help you find a baby." When

they heard this, they laughed again.

Ma Cheng was not angry, and said to Jia Ming and Su Ce next to him with a smile: "Do you know, brothers, Shi Wenbo sent a WeChat message to Wu Wen yesterday, so I can see it, oops, the tone is so numb."

Jia Ming laughed and said, "Yes, how did you send it

?" Ma Cheng cleared his throat and said in an extremely disgusting voice: "Wife, have you slept, have you missed me

?" Everyone laughed when they heard this, Shi Wenbo's face turned red, and he came over to hit him, shouting in his mouth: "Damn, do you want to die?"

Ma Cheng turned around to avoid his pursuit, and then ran while dribbling and shouted: " Hmph, I miss you so much every day, you don't even want me, you have no conscience!"

Everyone understood now, and it was estimated that Wu Wen replied "I didn't think about it", and couldn't help laughing again.

Shi Wenbo's face turned even redder, and he chased him out again, and the two scuffled together.

Seeing this, Ye Su hurriedly said, "Okay, don't make trouble, hurry up and warm up."

Shi Wenbo let go of Ma Cheng, pointed at his nose and shouted, "Little B, you wait for the competition to finish."

Ma Cheng laughed and said, "Yo yo, Master Shi is so big, why, go back and don't ask if anyone misses you today?"

Everyone laughed again, Shi Wenbo was not angry this time, he picked up a ball with a smile, and then threw it, saying: "It's okay, I know you are jealous, you are a single dog." The

warm-up ended in such a joyous atmosphere, and with the referee's whistle, the warm-up was over.

Anna gathered the crowd together once more, then quickly arranged a few words, then patted everyone on the shoulder encouragingly, and motioned for them to play.

On An Zhou's side, the atmosphere is much worse. Xu Changzhi signaled that Zhu Hongguang should arrange tactics, Zhu Hongguang nodded helplessly, and said: "There is nothing to arrange, I have said almost everything that should have been said before, just play according to what we arranged before, remember, the opponent is very strong, let's not be intimidated by this home atmosphere, just show them what we have learned and practiced." Everyone

shouted in unison, "Yes!" and then gathered around, shouted a slogan, and quickly got on the field.

The lineup list of the two sides

: An Zhou Gao: coach Zhu Hongguang, center No. 5 Wang Yu, big forward No. 4 Xu Changzhi, small forward No. 18 Miao Zhuang, scoring guard No. 9 Zhang Duo, and organization guard No. 14 Ma Mingyuan.

Longcheng Z high: Coach Anna, center No. 5 Li Licheng, power forward No. 15 Jia Ming, small forward No. 4 Ye Su, scoring guard No. 8 Gu Cheng, and organization guard No. 7 Su Ce.

"Toot!"

the referee tossed the basketball in his hand.

"Drink!" Wang Yu burst out and jumped up first.

Li Licheng has always been steady, but he was still startled by Wang Yu's sudden roar, and his jump suddenly slowed down by half a beat.

"Hey!" The ball was touched by Wang Yu first, and it slapped it in reverse, and immediately changed its direction and flew in the direction of Zhang Duo.

Zhang Duo, who had already been prepared, jumped up, grabbed the ball in his hand, saw that Z Gao had no intention of grabbing, and hurriedly passed the ball to the organization guard Ma Mingyuan.

"Let's go up!" Xu Changzhi shouted loudly and ran towards the Z-high half, behind him, except for Ma Mingyuan, who was carrying the ball, the other three people all ran swiftly to where they should go, like agile cheetahs, fast and clear.

When the five of them were in place, the Z tallest people had already taken their positions and were ready to fight.

Jia Ming is still standing in the middle of the inside line, Li Licheng is standing on the left side, Ye Su is standing in front of the right, Gu Cheng is on the left side, and Su Ce is standing in the middle of the outside line, a standard Z-high defensive position.

After three passes, the ball was still on the outside, and in the face of Z Gao's flexible defensive position, Yi Gao had already reached a stalemate when he tried to attack in the first round.

Especially the No. 7 standing in the center of the three-point line, stretched out his long hand, waving back and forth, completely enveloping a large area in the center within his range, and his sharp eyes and fierce look made people believe that no matter which direction he passed, he would rush to destroy the ball as soon as possible.

Wang Yu has been desperately squeezed inside, but despite this, he still did not find a suitable offensive opportunity, although Li Licheng was behind him, but he was not completely restricted by him, coupled with Gu Cheng and Jia Ming's flank defense, once he got the ball and couldn't shoot at the first time, then he would face three people.

And although Xu Changzhi has a position, but the ball can't be passed in at all, Jia Ming's position is simply too deadly, you can go around the front for the first time, and you can also form a bag with Li Licheng for the first time, although Xu Changzhi fantasizes that the ball can go around Jia Ming's head high and come to his hands, but it is completely unrealistic to think about it.

The entire Z-high five people are like a pole that has been corrected for a long time, connected to each other, and if there is a problem with any of the rings, another ring will immediately come to make up for it.

The clock was ticking, and it was time to attack.

Xu Changzhi helplessly walked around the free throw line and shouted, "Give it to me!"

Ma Mingyuan shook a shot with both hands, and then forcibly passed the ball to him.

Jia Ming greeted him as soon as possible, and Ma Mingyuan symbolically wanted to pull Su Ce to the left and create a suitable singles space for Xu Changzhi.

But Su Ce didn't eat his set, but moved his position slightly to the left rear, still standing in his own position.

Ma Mingyuan moved to the left, although Su Ce was no longer standing in front of him, but there were people on his left and right sides, as long as he caught the ball, they could catch it at the first time.

What kind of defensive position is this!

I feel that no matter who gets the ball, there will always be a dilemma of people coming from both directions to wrap up, and it is impossible to form a suitable breakthrough and shooting space.

Is this the highest strength of Longcheng?

Xu Changzhi has also realized this problem, but he didn't have time to think, the moment he received the ball, it was a three-in-place threat, and then he shook his body with both hands on the ball, and at the same time quickly stepped out to the right, and his left foot immediately followed, and with a moment of strength, the whole body suddenly braked, put the ball together with both hands, and jumped up and threw quickly.

At the moment when the ball was about to be shot, a black shadow with the sound of whirring wind, like a thunderclap, went straight to the front door.

"Smack!"

Xu Changzhi was empty, fell down in embarrassment, looked sideways, Miao Zhuang on the right leaned over and quickly picked up the ball, and forcibly threw the ball out with a very irregular action.

"When!"

24 seconds are up for the attack.

The ball is also a three-pronged without any suspense.

Jia Ming in front of him glanced at him thoughtfully, and then reached out and pulled him up.

"Thank you. Xu Changzhi said softly, and then quickly ran to his backcourt.

Jia Ming didn't speak, and quickly went to his baseline to catch the ball.

"Damn!" Zhu Hongguang on the sidelines shook his head helplessly, it seems that the reason why Z High is strong is not only reflected in the offensive aspect, but also in the defensive end

In fact, what he didn't know was that the Z-high defensive formation was created by Zheng Xueqi, Zheng Xueqi was obsessed with defense when he was in school earlier, in the words of Xu Cheng, the head coach of Fengtian No. 29 Middle School, he was obsessed with defense and even reached the point of being biased, and this defensive formation was changed from the previous Jia Ming as the defensive core of the premise of moving infinite defense all over the court with Anna's offensive system.

It's still a pack, but the two sides of the bag and Jamin and another defender have become a local double pack, which can greatly slow down Jamin's defensive core.

In fact, this defensive formation is not as complicated as imagined, but because of the presence of Jia Ming and Su Ce, the entire Z-high defense has become very flexible, and the pressure on the opponent is much greater.

I changed it to the highest attack.

Jia Ming, Gu Cheng, and Ye Su each stood in a corner, Jia Ming was in the center, Li Licheng was standing in the bottom corner on the left, and Su Ce was running all over the field.

Jamin holds the ball while directing his teammates' movements.

Su Ce suddenly started from the right side, went straight to the basket along the bottom corner, and then turned around and ran straight to the top of the arc.

Ye Su moved from the left side to the top of the arc from the free throw line at this time, Jia Ming understood, passed the ball the moment he reached the 45-degree three-point line, and then turned around and ran straight to the basket.

Xu Changzhi, who was defending him, did not doubt that he had him, and followed Jia Ming into the inner line.

Su Ce ran to Jia Ming's side at this time, and then turned around again with the help of Jia Ming's body, running towards the right side of the arc top.

And Jia Ming blocked sideways at this time, blocking Ma Mingyuan, who was defending Su Ce, and Xu Changzhi behind him.

Ye Su also comprehended the pass at this

moment! Xu Changzhi and Ma Mingyuan shouted again after bypassing Jia Ming's cover, and quickly pounced!

The moment Su Ce received the ball, he faced the flutter of the two people, and there was not the slightest fluctuation in his heart, and he was a little fierce when he held the ball.

How could Xu Changzhi and Ma Mingyuan think so much, and jumped up desperately.

Su Ce smiled slightly, and once again took a long step to the right sideways, and in an instant there was no one in front of him again.

Miao Zhuang, who was defending Ye Su, finally couldn't bear it anymore, gave up the original defensive Ye Su, and rushed up like a cheetah again.

Ye Su was waiting for this time, turned around and ran to the right bottom line again, because he knew that Su Ce would definitely pass the ball over.

Sure enough, the moment he just reached the bottom line, Su Ce's ball had already arrived, and he glanced at the three-point line at his feet with a smile, and then shot quickly.

"Brush!" is a classic Z-high style match.

The audience once again resounded with a tsunami-like cheer.

Su Ce glanced at Xu Changzhi, Ma Mingyuan and Miao Zhuang who were annoyed in front of him with a smile on his face, and then quickly returned to the defense.

Zhu Hongguang, who was on the sidelines, closed his eyes helplessly.

The strength of the two sides is really not at the same level.

The other party, whether it is team execution or individual ability, is much stronger than his own team.

Can this kind of team actually lose three times in a row in the first round of the group stage? When did the strength of Yanning Province become so strong?

I suddenly remembered that after the group was grouped, they formed a recognized death group, and it really lived up to its name.

Even the No. 1 Middle School of Erchang County, which is recognized in Yanning Province in recent years, was won by them by more than 30 points in the second round.

This team was even on the verge of elimination, but it was miraculously able to reach the quarterfinals, what did it go through.

Sure enough, there's nothing more terrifying than a team that has made it all the way back from hell.

Zhu Hongguang thought helplessly.

Xu Changzhi patted Miao Zhuang, who was still annoyed, and said, "Let's go, the game has just begun."

Miao Zhuang gasped as he shook his head and said, "They're too strong."

Xu Changzhi said sharply: "I know they are very strong, but this is not a reason for us to be so depressed!"

This time he found a position under the basket, Xu Changzhi twisted and stuck Jia Ming behind him, and then started to play back.

But no matter how hard he tried, the thin little man No. 15 behind him seemed to have infinite strength, and he once suspected that he was struggling with a stiff wall.

And No. 4, who was standing not far away, looked coldly at Miao Zhuang, who was defending himself, without the slightest intention of coming over to attack.

In the past, as soon as he held the ball on the inside, as long as he attracted the bag, he could easily pass the ball to the outside players, and then assist them to score three-pointers.

But today it didn't work.

Could it be that this No. 4 trusts his teammates so much?

Xu Changzhi didn't dare to think about it, and finally leaned on it, and then Xi the habitual holding of the ball, turned around, and jumped on the ground.

At the moment when he held the ball, the No. 4 rushed in, jumped high in the direction of his jump, and with the hand of No. 15 behind him, Xu Changzhi knew that they had only one goal, that is, the basketball in his hand.

You're really strong.

Even so, I have to stand and die!

Facing the two big hands stretched out to him, Xu Changzhi did not flinch, bravely lifted the ball again, relied on his own stagnation, narrowly avoided the two big hands of the block, and then forced the ball out with the last trace of strength.

The ball slammed into the rim of the basket, bounced high, then slammed into the rebound, and finally rolled mischievously into the basket.

"Yay!" Xu Changzhi didn't care about falling on the ground and hurting his buttocks, suddenly stood up, and then quickly ran towards his half.

When Jia Ming and Ye Su saw this goal, they shook their heads helplessly.

I tried my best to score the ball just now, but I still couldn't stop this guy from scoring, and it seems that this guy's belief is also very strong.

Su Ce, who was on the side, looked at Xu Changzhi's back and left firmly, and suddenly remembered himself when he was in the first round of Xihu High School.

At that time, every time I attacked, I had to put a lot of effort into it, and I had to face more than three people, and every time I made a shot, three or even six hands were raised high in front of me, trying to interfere with or block myself.

Although I have never heard of the name of the school of Ann Zhou High School, but today because of him, I have to admire this inconspicuous school.

This is a group of people who will never give up, this is a team that will never give up!

Thinking of this, Su Ce couldn't help but show a charming smile and raised his fist at Jia Ming and Ye Su at the bottom line.

Being able to meet such an opponent is the meaning of our basketball, isn't it?

Thank you No. 4, thank you for letting me see this never-give-up spirit.

In this case, I have to take out 12 points to defeat you, otherwise I will be ashamed of the word "basketball".

It's still the highest fast offense.

The same position, the same style of play, the same result, just a different person.

Su Ce faced Xu Changzhi, who had already tried his best to rush to his own jumping cap, and did not hesitate to open his hand again to shoot a three-point shot.

The ball drew Su Ce's signature high and fast arc in the air, and then fell into the basket with precision.

Xu Changzhi sat on the ground embarrassed, his eyes full of unwillingness.

Su Ce pulled him up and whispered in his ear, "Come on

!" Xu Changzhi paused obviously, and then said quickly: "You too!"

Two people who had never known each other, just between the two rounds of attack, showed a sense of sympathy!

Yigao's style of play has not changed, it is still Xu Changzhi, or Jia Ming with his back alone, or a jump shot after turning, this time Ye Su deliberately jumped a step late, but Xu Changzhi, who was already desperate, still changed the ball to his right hand on the way to the highest in his body, and then forcibly threw the ball high.

"Brush!" the ball went in decisively, without any drag.

Xu Changzhi fell to the ground again, he still didn't take into account the pain, and got up quickly again, roaring excitedly, and at the same time shook off his right hand that had been clenched into a fist, venting his emotions to the fullest.

Anna listened to the wolf-like howl of the No. 4 on the sidelines, and watched him return to the defense with excitement after scoring a goal, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.

This is a person who doesn't give up easily.

He won this round, but what about the next round?

I don't think he thought about it that much, he just wanted to tell everyone in the audience with his actual actions that they would not be defeated so easily.

What a good player.

Anna thought with a smile.

The basketball atmosphere in China is really different.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with coming here, I am beginning to slowly realize the true meaning of

basketball! In this case, I have to take you more seriously, you who like basketball, you should not want your opponent to release water in the game!

Thinking of this, Anna suddenly whistled, and then smiled and gestured to the players.

Come on No. 4, let you feel the strength of our Dragon City!
