zero second lore

Chapter 245 Resurrection
In the locker room in Lizhong, everyone behaved calmly, leading by 11 points at halftime, and the opponent was Huifu Middle School, a once super strong team, which did not make anyone excited or careless.

Everyone wiped sweat, drank water, chatted, and exchanged information about their performance in the first half, like a battle-tested strong team.

Gao Jing is satisfied with the team's mature performance of the players. It seems that if nothing else happens, Lizhong will gradually degenerate into a real strong team.

Since encountering Changshu Sports in the city competition, Lizhong has not encountered a real oppressive challenge so far.

Especially in the "Four Finals of Death" defeating Benshi Middle School, which was strong outsiders and middle-ranked, greatly boosted the team's confidence. The next two games were steady victories, plus the successful victory over No. [-] Middle School in the previous game. Now Lizhong and several It is no longer the same as it was a few months ago.

Gao Jing originally wanted to remind the players not to be careless because of consecutive wins, but it seems that these boys are not particularly complacent.

"Let them continue to play, and trust them." Gao Jing swallowed her words, and she believed that the team could also perform well in the second half.

Maybe Gao Jing herself didn't realize that her mentality was also paralyzed. She only considered the mentality and condition of her players and thought they were fine.

But they didn't think about their opponents, and didn't care what adjustments their opponents would make.

She forgot that the opponent was Huifu Middle School, a strong team that has been around for 20 years. She forgot that their coach was the famous Vulture Wang Minqi. When he first landed in the NHBA in the first year of high school, the shock he brought to East China was even higher than that of Lin Xin.

People are always forgetful, especially in good times, and Gao Jing is no exception.

After a 15-minute break, players from both sides returned to the court, and the second half will continue.

Lizhong's starting lineup has not changed. Since Wang Yourong replaced Zhang Fan in the starting lineup, he has become more and more accustomed to this position and role.

He hasn't vomited yet today, except for the fact that he was a little uncomfortable seeing the Xuhui Twin Towers the day before yesterday, and most of the time, Wang Yourong is no longer afraid of anyone - of course, this is what he himself did to cheer him up.

However, the starting players of Huifu Middle School have changed. Xie Gezhi, wearing the No. 4 jersey, stepped onto the court.

He is 2 meters tall, only a little shorter than Wang Yourong.His shoulders are not as broad and strong as Wang Yourong, but he has a pair of strong long arms and a pair of big hands.

He has a mature appearance, and he looks like a pair with the fierce Wang Yourong, but Wang Yourong doesn't think so, he is a little nervous.

As the referee blew the whistle, Huifu Middle School served to attack. Xie Gezhi served from the bottom line, gave the ball to Sun Li, and then said to Sun Li: "Give me the ball first."

After finishing speaking, Xie Gezhi ran towards the front court. Sun Li was slightly taken aback, but he reacted immediately.

Sun Li is only a freshman this year. He is an arrogant guard. He is one of the few players on the team who dares to flirt with Wang Minqi.

In the past, he never liked Xie Gezhi. He had only heard of Xie Gezhi's prestige back then. When he joined Huifu, Xie Gezhi was already a medicine jar, playing on and off, and with a dull personality. What a sense of presence.

Therefore, when it comes to Huifu, it is more about "Shuangliren" than Xie Gezhi.

But today, in the locker room, he saw Xie Gezhi's roar with his own eyes, and he finally remembered Xie Gezhi's former nickname, which is rarely mentioned now, his name is "Stone Lion".

..............................

Xie Gezhi ran halfway, he went straight down from the middle to the three-second zone, then turned around and blocked Wang Yourong.

This is a completely different change from the first half. In the second half, Huifu's offense came from a low position.

Sun Li hoisted the ball to Xie Gezhi, and Xie Gezhi took the ball. This was a confrontation between two behemoths under the basket.

But obviously, Wang Yourong was not ready. Xie Gezhi simply turned his back to push Wang Yourong away, and then hit a throw with one hand.

Xie Gezhi's important position is too deep. After turning around, the basket is close in front of him, and he can hit it easily.

Squeezing Wang Yourong away was not an easy task. Xie Gezhi exerted [-]% of his leg strength, but it seemed that he didn't care about his ankle at all.

Wang Yourong looked a bit depressed, he couldn't even remember who the last person who scored in the low post over his head was.

Tang Yiyang?No, he always shoots from the outside; Fang Qiang?Wang Yourong is not afraid of him at all.

But this Sheger is different.

No one else could push him away, as long as he was focused and devoted 100%, but this Xie Gezhi did it.

Wang Yourong felt his heart beating faster, he served the ball from the bottom line, and Wu Peng held the ball for half court.

The Lizhong players haven't felt the changes in Huifu. They still follow the rhythm of the first half.

But Xie Gezhi was different from Lou Pulin, he didn't choose to go out, but guarded in the three-second zone, like a stone lion guarding the gate.

Wu Peng and Zou Zhou completed a crossover, Wu Peng directly cut to the inside, Bai Ye did not pass the ball to Zou Zhou and then to Wu Peng, but boldly made a low and flat pass to the inside.

This was a difficult pass, which passed the two defenders back to Wu Peng's hands smoothly.

In the first half, Baiye's pass almost pierced Huifu's defense, which can be described as tried and tested.

But this time, their coordinated attack was rejected by the opponent.

Inside, Wu Peng obviously underestimated Xie Gezhi's defensive control range. After catching the ball, he chose to throw the ball directly, thinking that leaving Xie Gezhi's body position would not be disturbed.

Who knew that the stone lion moved like a live lion, Xie Gezhi stepped forward and gave Wu Peng his big hat.

Huifu Middle School grabbed the ball and started a counterattack. The confident Sun Li dribbled the ball from the outside, pulled up from outside the three-point line and shot.

As a result, the ball hit the front of the basket and missed, but Xie Gezhi had already rushed to the basket. He was ahead of Wang Yourong in speed. He grabbed the offensive rebound, and then immediately took off and dunked with both hands!

After scoring the goal, Xie Gezhi threw his fists and roared. At this time, he appeared to be much more mature than his peers. He was no longer "ugly", but unparalleled "dominant", like a roaring lion.

Wang Yourong came late behind him, seeing Xie Gezhi's dunk and roar, his forehead was sweating.

He got the ball again and served it down the baseline, as if that would ease some of the guilt he felt for not getting back on defense in time.

Because Wang Yourong knows that apart from defense, he has almost no way to make any contribution on the offensive end.

Xie Gezhi's recovery suddenly raised the momentum of the entire Huifu, as if they just remembered that there was such a player in the team, their captain, a dominant center forward.

Lizhong players also forgot about him, or he never appeared in the memory of Lizhong players. Before the game, Gao Jing did not prepare much for Xie Gezhi because he was injured too much.

The last game and the first half of this game confirmed her thoughts, and the lion seemed to be dead.

But now, he seems to be alive again.

........................

When Xie Gezhi forgot about his ankle injury and no longer cowered and cautiously, the former Huifu Shishi began to show his great power.

In the high school arena, height and strength are often decisive, and a tall center can immediately change the situation on the court.

Not to mention a player like Xie Gezhi. He is different from Mao Zhiyuan. He has a domineering style of play and is also delicate. His offensive skills are simple but effective, and his defense is extremely deterrent.

In the first year of high school, he was as famous as Gan Zhizhi and An Runzhou. He was called "a lion in front of the gate and a wolf behind him. There is no way to go in and no way to retreat. When you look up, there is a Buddha in the sky."

He is nicknamed the stone lion, and the lion in front of the door means his excellent protection of the three-second zone. He doesn't like to expand his defense, he doesn't like to roam and sweep, he just wants to squat under the basket, and anyone who wants to come in, step on me.

As a result, Lizhong's offense suddenly came to a standstill. The inside line couldn't get in, and the air cuts had no effect.

On the offensive end, they gave up the high-post cover tactic that Wang Minqi had always wanted to achieve, and Xie Gezhi was to play hard in the interior and to fight hard in the low post.

Wang Yourong's defense was challenged unprecedentedly, and when Xie Gezhi grabbed an offensive rebound from the basket, pushed Wang Yourong away, succeeded in a one-armed dunk, and caused Wang Yourong to foul, Wang Yourong's psychological defense collapsed.

He suddenly had stomach cramps and retched while leaning on the basket. He just vomited some acid water, and the referee immediately stopped the game.

The teammates rushed forward to inquire about the situation, and Gao Jing took this opportunity to replace Wang Yourong and let Zhang Fan play.

At this time, Huifu Middle School had already tied the score, and with Xie Gezhi's free throw, Huifu took the lead by one point!
Sitting on the sidelines, Wang Yourong looked uncomfortable after vomiting just now, and what was even more uncomfortable was his mood, because he found that he couldn't defend Xie Gezhi at all, and at the same time, he couldn't help his teammates on the offensive end.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Wang Yourong said sorry to Gao Jing. The ups and downs of the first half and the second half made him unprepared and unbearable.

Gao Jing patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's nothing, the game is not over yet, it's too early to say sorry. Make adjustments, you will play later."

Wang Yourong nodded, but let alone playing at this time, he didn't even dare to watch the situation on the field.

Xie Gezhi made a free throw, and they really took the lead, led by the resurrected Xie Gezhi!
But before the backcourt players could be happy, a white lightning split from the backcourt to the frontcourt.

Xie Gezhi yelled "Return to defense!" and then rushed towards the three-second zone.

He's fast, he's keeping up, he's going to block the opponent's counter layup.

Xie Gezhi is in excellent condition now, he feels that he can block any layup of his opponent, including the one in front of him, which is already close at hand.

But the ball is gone, and he misses the shot, and the guy catches the ball, huddles in the air, and makes a low layup with his left hand, on the other side.

The ball spun around in the air, hit the backboard, spun and bounced into the basket, scored two points, and Lizhong took the lead again.

Huifu's lead only lasted five seconds.

"No. 18, Lu Yuan, good guy." Xie Gezhi looked at the back of the scorer and wrote him down.
