Chapter 8 Blue and White Showdown
Blue team members: Paul, McBray, Fitz, power forward Mike Smith and center Siakam.

White team members: point guard Angel, point guard Jayden, small forward Ge, power forward Adams, center Joshua.

The two sides entered the middle circle and started to jump the ball.

Joshua was a known jumper at Duke.

Just talking about the jump ball, two Siakams are not enough for Joshua to jump.

Joshua gave the Whites their first opportunity to attack.

Angel dribbled the ball across the half, Paul directly pressed the defense, and Angel, who deliberately wanted to show himself, had no intention of passing the ball.

Ge Feng ran over to pick and roll for Angel.

Angel intends to overpower Paul.

Among other things, Paul is definitely second to none in the league in terms of defensive ability.

Angel's ball was cut off by Paul without any suspense.

Ge Feng had already expected this ending, so he retreated quickly.

Ge Feng held back Paul's fast break, and the players of the white team had already settled down.

Paul didn't have a fast break opportunity, so he put the ball down and waited for his teammates to get in position.

Old K was very relieved, just now he also saw that Angel was going to make a mistake.

What surprised Old K even more was that Ge Feng was able to quickly settle in at the first time, making Paul's plan come to naught.

It is quite good to have this awareness in actual combat!

In fact, to defend this thing, physical fitness is of course important.But what really affects the quality of defense is awareness.Consciousness alone is not enough to rely on physical fitness, you must have control over the overall situation!
The look of contempt in Paul's eyes had completely disappeared.

In just one round, Paul realized in his heart that Ge Feng had an overall view that was not inferior to his!
Without forcing the offense, Paul chose to hang the ball inside.

Siakam has pressed Joshua firmly behind him, stuck in a key position.

Siakam caught the ball easily, feinted a few times in a row, followed by a turnaround shot, and Joshua jumped high.

Siakam missed the shot, dribbled the ball one step, and gently put the ball into the net frame.

2: 0.

The blue team scored first.

Old K looked at it and shook his head. Joshua Yakong has a great jumping ability, but he is too easy to be shaken by the opponent.

At the critical moment of the game, everyone's nerves were tense.A center like Joshua who can't control his legs is destined to be unable to make a difference at critical moments.

Ge Feng ran over and patted Joshua on the shoulder, signaling him to be proactive.

Joshua was a little embarrassed.

Not only did Ge Feng not blame him, but he also encouraged him to be active in defense, which made him feel warm.

After changing sides, Paul pressed Angel again.

Angel behaved himself this time and handed the ball to Ge Feng.

As soon as Ge Feng received the ball, Fitz stuck it up with a serious face.

Paul was even worse, directly emptied Angel and double-teamed Ge Feng.

Ge Feng let out a mournful cry.

I double-team when I come up, the old coach K is still watching my performance here, you must not play like this!

But thinking about it, Ge Feng can never say to his opponent: "Please let me go, let me perform for a while."

So Ge Feng decisively chose to split the ball, and the ball returned to Angel again.

Angel received the ball from beyond the three-point line, but was unguarded.

Angel was stunned for a moment, feeling that he was being ignored, so holding his breath, he opened his hand and threw a three-pointer, banging the iron.

Siakam got stuck on the rebound again and steadily received the defensive rebound.

After two successive offensive setbacks, the white team must find a way to defend the next goal.

Paul lobbed the ball to Siakam again, the same scene again, the same rhythm again, but this time Joshua didn't dare to jump.

Siakam took advantage of the fact that Joshua didn't dare to jump, made a steady turnaround jumper, and scored two more points.

Siakam scored consecutive goals and the score came to 4:0.

Joshua was hammered by Siakam!
Joshua pinched Siakam's butt angrily, and complained dissatisfiedly: "You bully me like this every day, what's your skill?"

Ge Feng shook his head.

Hey, the disadvantage of this insider is too obvious!
But after these two rounds, Ge Feng also had some ideas.

Only Paul and Siakam stand out in the starting team of the blue team, and the gap between the rest of the players is not very big.

If several other positions can be brought online in multiple pairs, the gap should not be so obvious.

White team's attack.

Just after halftime this time, Angel handed the ball to Ge Feng for handling.

Paul and Fitz continued to double-team.

Ge Feng did not choose to pass the ball back to Angel, but passed the ball to Adams through Angel's pick-and-roll.

Adams also wanted to express himself very much. After receiving Ge Feng's pass, he immediately collided with Mike Smith like chicken blood.

Ge Feng signaled Angel to run to the bottom corner for a three-pointer, and then went around the pick-and-roll to support Adams.

Mike Smith defended very well, Adams had no chance.

Seeing that he was about to be double-teamed, Adams had no choice but to return the ball to Ge Feng.

As soon as Ge Feng caught the ball, he didn't even look at it, just a long pass, and passed the ball to the position where Angel just ran.

Angel once again got an open 3-pointer, and he even had time to make some adjustments.

"trust yourself!"

Ge Feng's voice sounded at the right time.

Angel was suddenly touched when he heard Ge Feng's encouragement.

He just made a mistake when he came up, and then he missed a three-pointer with an open space, but Ge Feng still believed in him as always.

Angel adjusted his breathing, and as usual in training, he shot the ball steadily.

"Shh!"

Three point hit!

The score came to 3:4.

The ball hit, and Angel finally played confidently.

In the next few rounds, Paul did not dare to let Angel go unscrupulously, so that he and Fitz would not be so effective in double-teaming Ge Feng.

Ge Feng singled out Fitz, and that wasn't an easy feat.

The two sides attacked each other steadily for several waves, and each scored.

The score has not been opened, and has always remained at five or six points.

More than half of the game time has passed, and only the last 5 minutes are left.

Because this was just a training match, Old K never called a timeout, allowing the players to play.

Although this is just a training match, it is enough for old K, he can see many things through a match.

Players from both sides have played for 15 minutes in a row so far without resting for 1 minute.

Now, their physical strength is almost exhausted.

The score on the field was 29:36, and the blue team still maintained a 7-point lead.

Every next goal may affect the final result of the game.

The white team's Ge Feng and Angel have performed the best so far.

Ge Feng scored a game-high 11 points, which was obtained under the key care of Paul and Fitz, including 3 assists.

Angel's hands burst, which Paul didn't expect.

Angel scored 8 points and made 4 of 2 three-pointers.

With just Ge Feng and Angel, they almost took all of the white team's points.

But Ge Feng understood that it was still impossible for the white team to defeat the blue team just relying on the outstanding performance of the two of them.

From the beginning to the present, almost everyone in the white team has been fighting alone, and now they are clearly out of breath.

On the other hand, the blue team is not as tired as the white team because they usually cooperate with more tactics and are very experienced.

If this continues, the white team will definitely lose!
