stadium ambition

Chapter 27 Everything is possible

Although lagging behind for a long time, Saint Mary High School did not panic at all, and deliberately created offensive opportunities for Sidney and others who had never scored, as if they did not value the results of the game, and only regarded the game as a practice.

As the game progressed, the players' physical strength gradually decreased and their concentration became less concentrated, and the scoring efficiency of the two teams gradually declined.

After 8 minutes of the first quarter, Su Yang and other main players returned to the sidelines to rest. Coach David readjusted the lineup to play in the first few minutes of the second quarter. Except for Brownie and Harley, the other three were substitute players.

On the side of Saint Mary High School, they also played with two starters and three substitutes.

After only a few rounds of fighting, the strength of the runner-up of Shengma High School was reflected. Their bench lineup was much stronger than that of Mu Qiao High School's bench lineup. They quickly evened out the previous point difference, and even surpassed it by as much as five points at one point. The situation was completely reversed.

Ron and the others were a little anxious, but David calmly followed the plan and waited until the middle of the second quarter before requesting a substitution.

Su Yang led the team back on the stage, commanded a strong full-court press, and equalized the score in 4 minutes.

During this period, he had steals and blocks, and also stole two offensive rebounds, as if turning on the dominance mode.

What's depressing is that when we came back from the halftime break, the game situation changed to the starter scoring and the substitute losing points.

Su Yang once wanted to request to play for a long time, but considering that this was a high school basketball game rather than a commercial game, other teammates also wanted to play for a few more minutes, so he chose to cheer for his teammates, and David still arranged according to the plan rotation.

The two teams battled wits and tried various tactics, but no matter what, they always revolved around Su Yang and Thompson.

In a blink of an eye, with 53 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Mu Qiao High School fell behind 68 to 73.

David asked for a timeout, simply arranged offensive and defensive strategies, and boiled a big bowl of chicken soup for encouragement.

...

The game continued, and the announcer shouted loudly: "Students, please give our players some cheers!"

The audience stood up and applauded, the arena was full of cheers, and Su Yang led the team into the stadium.

The referee blew his whistle and waved for Mu Qiao High School to attack.

Ron caught the ball and took it to the top of the arc, raised his hand to signal for all players to pull away, and implemented singles tactics as required by the coach.

Su Yang started from the short corner on the right, crossed the baseline with the help of a cover, circled to the left waist, and raised his hand to catch the ball.

Todd, who was in charge of changing defenses, followed closely. Su Yang thought for a moment, and took advantage of the situation with his left foot as the axis to assume a three-threat pose.

Other teammates moved away to open up space, a singles situation was formed, and the audience cheered and cheered.

Considering that there were too few matchups before, Su Yang adopted a conventional strategy, stepping with his right foot first.

Todd strode forward, actively blocking the space for the high position and leaving room for the bottom line.This is a conventional strategy for defensive waist singles, because the bottom line space is smaller, the passing vision is easily limited, it is easy to be double-teamed, and it is easy to step on the line and make mistakes.

"Since everyone wants to play conventional strategies, let's take a surprise..."

Su Yang gave up the test of crossing and striding, and directly pulled and swept in front of his body, dropped the ball from the left, and kicked the ground vigorously.

The start was too sudden, Todd hastily turned his hips and turned sideways, but Su Yang had already rushed to the paint area.

The basket was empty, Campbell gave up watching Taylor, and rushed to Su Yang, raising his right hand to block the shot.

Su Yang suddenly stopped his feet and took off, ignoring the threat of defense, and raised his hand to throw a throw.

Boom!The basketball crashed into the net, 70 to 73.

Offensive and defensive transition, St. Mary's High School kicked off the baseline.

Perhaps in order to pursue the success rate, Murphy did not continue to call the FLOPPY tactic, and switched to other gestures.

Campbell and Sidney hurried to the left and right sides of the free throw line to stand, while Todd slowly walked to the left waist.

Thompson started from the right wing, strode to the free throw line, and used two teammates to cover and get rid of the defense in a row.

Just as Thompson cut in sideways, Murphy passed the ball to Sidney at the free throw line on the right. Waist position, set up a wall to cover for Todd.

Five players from St. Mary's High School started at the same time, so that Su Yang clearly knew that there were three options, but he couldn't predict which one the opponent would play, and he couldn't remind his teammates how to defend. He could only stick to Thompson.

The reason is simple, Thompson has the highest scoring efficiency and is the best choice at the critical moment of St. Mary's High School.

As expected, Thompson's wall screen was just a cover, and the reverse cut was the real intention.

At this time, the basket was unguarded, Thompson easily entered the reasonable collision zone, and Sidney hit the ground with his back to pass the ball.

Su Yang stepped forward to grab the ball suddenly, touched the basketball with Thompson at the same time, and rushed forward without hesitation.

Thompson originally had a high center of gravity, so he couldn't compete for it, and Su Yang firmly hugged the basketball.

Cheers erupted in the arena, Su Yang stood up with one hand on the ground, and was instantly flanked by Thompson and Sidney.

In a crisis of form, Su Yang subconsciously turned his back to the two of them, then bent over and probed to observe. Seeing Ron coming up to respond, he immediately threw the ball over, the double-team was immediately resolved, and the audience cheered.

Mu Qiao High School launched a counterattack, and the whole team fell to the ground.

Su Yang put his back on Todd on his left waist, raised his right hand high and asked for the basketball, indicating that he was playing singles.

As soon as he received the basketball, Murphy rushed to him like a snake, trying to team up with Todd to double-team.

Su Yang took advantage of the situation and raised the basketball with both hands, stepped forward with his left foot, and prepared to pass back depending on the situation.

Murphy returned to the defense like lightning, and the singles space appeared again. Su Yang put down his hands and began to hit back with force.

Left and right, left and right, continuously shaking his shoulders, Todd forcibly adjusted his pace, and his center of gravity was a little out of balance.

Su Yang saw the timing and turned forward, faced Todd to defend him, kicked off the ground decisively, and shot backwards in the air.

The basketball went into the net hollow, 72 to 73.

With 20 seconds left in the game, St. Mary High School requested a timeout for the final attack.

No one from Su Yang returned to the bench. David asked to focus on defending Thompson and Todd, and the others can be left empty.

The timeout ended quickly, and the referee signaled for a kick-off in the frontcourt.

The four people from Shengma High School stood at the free throw line, and the four people from Muqiao High School followed closely.

"Beep!" The referee whistled.

Murphy started off, with three consecutive screens, and struggled to catch the ball on the left sideline.

Su Yang switched defenses and chased after Murphy, and found that Murphy did not show any signs of attacking, as if he wanted to delay time.

The shot clock was ticking, David didn't give any instructions, but some spectators chanted fouls.

Su Yang thought for a moment, took a quick step to stick to Murphy, and grabbed the basketball with both hands at the same time.

Murphy pulled the ball back, Su Yang stepped close to the body again, and chose to block the right and put the left to induce.

Murphy subconsciously dribbled the ball to the left, and Su Yang stopped the ball to press regardless of the threat of a foul.

Perhaps it was too fierce, Murphy chose to change hands behind the back, but lost the ball hastily.

Su Yang went around to grab the basketball and rushed all the way to the free throw line in the frontcourt. Cheers came from all directions in the arena.

In a daze, Su Yang wanted to try dunking and experience the thrill of unconventional lore. He also thought of the jokes caused by the failure of the dunk before, and the failure to fulfill the promise to Lu Rulan, and the failure would cause the team to lose the game...

With multiple thoughts intertwined in his mind, Su Yang decided to follow his inner desire, anyway, it was just a friendly match.

He soared into the air with all his strength, held the basketball high with his right hand, and hit the basket with a split dunk.

The basketball exploded into the net!

The whistle sounded at the end of the game at the same time, Mu Qiao High School won 74 to 73, and Su Yang dunked the game.
