Chapter 158 Trouble and knots
Tao Ran's face was livid, and he couldn't stand it any longer. In addition to the thug's foul, Li Changgeng had already committed three fouls. He hadn't finished the first quarter. How would he play the rest of the game?In desperation, he quickly called a timeout and replaced Li Changgeng.
(In accordance with FIBA standards, the national league has a maximum of five personal fouls, not six in the NBA)
"Didn't I tell you that you must pay attention to fouls? You have already received three fouls in the first quarter, how will you play the rest of the game?" When Li Changgeng came down, Tao Ran didn't care that Li Changgeng was the core of the team. , beloved disciple, roared at him.
"Coach, I...I just want to defend this ball." Li Changgeng said in a low voice.
"It's true that you want to defend the ball, but have you ever thought about it? Even if the ball is scored by the opponent, it is only a two-pointer, but now you have not only achieved a 2+1 for the opponent, but also accompanied it once. Foul." Tao Ran said angrily, "Think about it, is it worth it?"
This is of course not worth it, not to mention that Li Changgeng is the core of the team, receiving three regulations so early, it is a big blow to the team.
Li Changgeng lowered his head and had nothing to say.
Sima Shenji, Nong Guang, Lu Feng and others tried to persuade Li Changgeng, but they also felt very uncomfortable.
This is not a problem of Li Changgeng alone, but a problem of the entire team.
"Hey, Li Changgeng will definitely be restricted in the next game, and it will be even more difficult for us to play." Nong Guang sighed in a low voice.
"Today's match is really frustrating." Sima Shenji thought to himself, clenched his fists tightly.
Sima Shenji was thinking that Li Changgeng would definitely be restricted in the next match, so he had to take on more responsibilities, and he was a little uncertain.
In any case, the atmosphere in Hongcheng became very oppressive at this moment.
With more than a minute left in the first quarter, Tao Ran simply did not let Li Changgeng play, and replaced Li Changgeng with Amu.Of course, he also rearranged his tactics and re-divided everyone's tasks before waving his hand and saying, "Let's go."
"Yes." Several people came on stage.
Looking at the few people on the field, Tao Ran sighed silently. From dual-core to single-core, this lineup is bound to suffer.
Sure enough, apart from Sima Shenji, the other members of this lineup are somewhat inferior in ability compared to BJ Luguang. Although they are all active, they haven't gained much. We can only rely on Sima Shenji for offense. The machine's personal strength gets points.
This is also BJ Luguang's deliberate intention. If Li Changgeng goes down, only Sima Shenji will be left in Hongcheng as a difficult figure.If he increased his defensive strength against the others in Hongcheng, then most of Hongcheng's balls could only be handed over to Sima Shenji.
Anyway, it's all about playing Sima Shenji, so it's much easier to defend.
In terms of defense, Hongcheng couldn't restrict BJ Greenlight. Originally, BJ Greenlight's configuration of one inside and one outside was terrifying. Now that Li Changgeng is missing, Amu's speed can't keep up with Li Tianming at all, and he was almost blown away by Li Tianming. If you want to rush, you can vote, if you want to vote, you simply treat Amu as a transparent person.
Fortunately, Nong Guang was stimulated by Li Changgeng's end and became more aggressive. He fought desperately with Jiang Junye in the interior, which greatly increased the pressure on Jiang Junye, and failed to score two consecutive attacks.
Moreover, Sima Shenji went berserk, and within a minute or so, he took care of all Hongcheng's attacks by himself.
I saw that he broke through Chen Qidong first, hit a difficult pull-up jumper, and then hit a three-pointer when he ran out of open space to catch the ball.However, in just over a minute, with three offensive opportunities, Sima Shenji made 3 of 2 shots and scored 5 points for Hongcheng.
This efficiency is not surprising.
"beep"
The whistle sounded, the first quarter ended, the score was fixed at 26:18, and Hongcheng fell behind by 8 points.
"Being behind by 8 points in the first quarter, Li Changgeng has already committed three fouls. This game is really fucking bad." Tao Ran, who has always been civilized, couldn't help but swear.
But no matter what, the game has to continue, and we have to play as we should.
Soon, the second quarter started, and Tao Ran first sent out a rotation lineup, but within a few minutes of playing, the point difference was stretched to 13 points. In desperation, he could only call a timeout, looked at Sima Shenji, and asked Said: "Sima Shenji, how are you resting?"
"Coach, I've already rested." Sima got up, knowing that he had to do it by himself at this time.
"Okay." Tao Ran didn't hesitate, and replaced Sima Shenji.
On BJ Green Light's side, Li Tianming was also replaced, and they would not give Hong Cheng any chance to chase points wantonly.
The remaining few minutes of the second quarter completely turned into a performance by Sima Shenji and Li Tianming. If you get one, I will also get another one. Anyway, no one will let the other, and no one can do anything to the other.
Just like that, at the end of the second quarter, Sima Shenji scored another 12 points, and Li Tianming also scored 10 points. There was not much difference between the two.
But looking at the score again, Hongcheng was still behind.
After all, although Sima Shenji scored 2 points more than Li Tianming, the other players in Hongcheng lost to BJ Luguang. BJ Luguang scored 10 points in total except Li Tianming, while Hongcheng's Several people added up to get 6 points.
At 55:40, Hongcheng was already 15 points behind.
"Quick attack."
BJ Luguang got the offensive rebound and quickly launched a fast break. The three players rushed forward in a zigzag shape. The point guard quickly distributed the ball. , another player flew up and easily made a dunk.
This is the 4th minute of the third quarter, and this ball is only one of the goals in this quarter, but with this ball scored, the score became 67:46.In a full 4 minutes, Hongcheng only scored 6 points, while the opponent had already scored 12 points.
Tao Ran couldn't sit still anymore, and even called a timeout, he didn't bother to reprimand Lu Feng and the others, so he just put on a straight face and said to Li Changgeng: "Go up later, attack me, but be careful not to foul, you have already Three fouls."
"Yes." Li Changgeng said repeatedly.
Li Changgeng was replaced here, and BJ Luguang also replaced Jiang Junye. They did not replace Li Tianming. On the one hand, Li Tianming played for a long time; The state is really not good, so Wu Yanzu thinks it will be the same for other defenses.
In fact, Li Changgeng's condition is really bad. He committed three fouls when he came up today, and after sitting on the bench for so long, his mind has calmed down, but his hands have also become cold.
After coming up, Li Changgeng made two shots in a row, but he didn't make a single shot.
It wasn't until the 6th minute that Li Changgeng made use of a breakthrough to reach the inside line, scored with a small throw, and scored 2 points for Hongcheng.
Starting from this ball, Li Changgeng's touch seems to be back again, and he fired from outside one after another. First, he made a catch-and-shoot three-pointer, and then he stepped back and hit a mid-range shot. Counting the previous breakthrough, he was alone. Already scored 7 points.
"Haha, Li Changgeng finally started to explode." Hongcheng's team members couldn't help but get excited.
Unfortunately, they were not happy for long.
Seeing that Li Changgeng started to show off his power, BJ Greenlight quickly changed their style of play. On offense, they consciously took advantage of Li Changgeng's weakness of three fouls. They tried to cause Li Changgeng to foul several times. Naturally, Li Changgeng would not be fooled, and they consciously restrained themselves on defense. a little.
But in this way, the loopholes in his position became bigger, and he was connected to two by the opponent.
In terms of defense, BJ Greenlight also further strengthened the defense against Li Changgeng. The outside players were very tight.
But Li Changgeng had three fouls on his back, and he didn't dare to be too aggressive, for fear of accidentally getting fouled, so he couldn't score a few goals in a row.
Under the ebb and flow, Hongcheng's momentum was contained again.
"Ah..." Tao Ran sighed helplessly, and could only order his players to help Li Changgeng cover the pick-and-roll more, so as to free up his shot space.
A few minutes passed quickly, and at the end of the third quarter, the score became 81:63, and Hongcheng was still 18 points behind.
In the auditorium, countless fans who supported BJ Greenlight started cheering. With 18 points difference, the victory is almost certain.
At the same time, in front of the TV, countless Hongcheng fans who watched the game were all sad. They were already 18 points behind, and Li Changgeng was in poor condition. It's hard as hell.
Even the head of Hongcheng, who rushed to BJ with the cheerleaders and was now standing near the stadium to cheer for Hongcheng, was in a hurry. He took advantage of the rest time and ran to the Hongcheng players' rest area to encourage the players. .
"Sima Shenji, Li Changgeng, Nong Guang, Aaron, you guys rest for another 2 minutes, and you can start after playing for 2 minutes." Tao Ran has his own considerations. His players have played a lot of time, so they must be allowed to play. Take a break first before making the last fight.
Turning around, Tao Ran began to arrange tactics for the rotation lineup
Like Hongcheng, BJ Luguang did not send in the starting lineup, and the rotation of the two sides was very fierce. BJ Luguang wanted to expand the advantage, while Hongcheng wanted to stabilize the score. The two sides competed for each other. His eyes were red.
Finally, 2 minutes later, because the two sides played too fiercely, the hit rate was not high. BJ Luguang scored two goals, and Hongcheng scored one. The score became 85:65, with a difference of 20 points.
Tao Ran called a timeout, replaced the starting lineup, and told them to play the offense and show momentum.
BJ Greenlight also changed into the starting lineup. In the last 8 minutes, they will not take it lightly and give Hongcheng a chance.
Hongcheng attacked, Sima Shenji took the ball, feinted, accelerated, hit the inside line and made a layup, and the point difference became 18 points.
Li Tianming made a breakthrough, turned around and made a hook
"Snapped!"
There was a light sound, followed by the whistle. The referee pointed at Li Changgeng, gave him a thug foul, and signaled Li Tianming to serve twice.
It was the 5th minute of the fourth quarter. Li Tianming made a breakthrough, followed by Li Changgeng, who then jumped up to block the shot. In the end, he got a foul. He had already fouled four times.
Tao Ran called a timeout again, gave some advice to the opponent's players, and looked at the scoreboard. It was 96:70, and Hongcheng was still 16 points behind.
"Alas," Tao Ran sighed, Hongcheng actually played well in this quarter, especially Sima Shenji, who scored 8 points alone, but Li Changgeng was restricted by fouls and played very badly. In a few minutes, 3 1 shot, only 3 points, and no one else, how can this point difference be narrowed?
Soon, the pause is over.
Players from both sides returned to the court, Li Tianming went to the free throw line and made both free throws.
With Hongcheng's possession of the ball, Sima Shenji advanced to the frontcourt. Sima Shenji took the ball and set up a pick-and-roll with his teammates, then leaned back and made a hit.
However, when he turned around, Li Tianming took advantage of Li Changgeng's weakness of fouling four times, made another breakthrough and scored two points.
"Hongcheng is going to lose." Huang Jingao suddenly said beside the technical stage.
Wang Xianba frowned, but he couldn't refute. He nodded depressedly and said, "They really can't win this game."
"Hehe." Huang Jingao knew that Wang Xianba was not reconciled, but he didn't say much, just smiled, and then looked at Li Changgeng, disapproving in his heart. How can such a player be so good if he loses the chain at this time?
On the court, the score is still rising.
With one and a half minutes left, Li Tianming made a breakthrough, stopped suddenly, and made a gesture to shoot. Li Changgeng jumped up quickly, but found that Li Tianming didn't take off at all.
The goal was missed, but he earned a foul. Li Changgeng raised his hand helplessly. He finally graduated with five fouls.
The graduation of Li Changgeng's five offenders meant that Hong Cheng had lost his last chance to turn the tables. After more than a minute, with a difference of more than ten points, the outcome was set. .
More than a minute passed quickly, and when the final whistle sounded, BJ Green Light's people suddenly cheered, and tens of thousands of spectators in the auditorium also stood up and cheered loudly.
Everyone in Hongcheng lowered their heads silently, followed Tao and walked towards the player tunnel.Sima Shenji, who was walking at the end, suddenly stopped, turned around and glanced at the scoreboard, clenched his fists tightly, and whispered to himself: "Next game, next game we must win."
There is no doubt that everyone in Hongcheng is unwilling, but the most unwilling person must be Sima Shenji.
Sima Shenji scored a game-high 42 points today. He scored almost half of Hongcheng's points by himself. His performance was so crazy that everyone gasped.However, Hong Cheng lost, even if he scored 42 points, he could still only become someone else's background.
Hongcheng lost, and those media who had long been pessimistic about Hongcheng became active, praising BJ Greenlight one after another, believing that BJ Greenlight would be able to successfully defend their title this year and win the championship again.As for Hongcheng, there is no doubt that they will lose.
Some media even questioned Li Changgeng.
Li Changgeng's performance today was really poor. He only scored 15 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds, and finally graduated with five fouls. It can be said that this is his worst game this season.
Many media seized on this point to criticize Li Changgeng, mercilessly, thinking that he is too difficult to take on the big responsibility, and he will lose the chain in the finals. With such a psychological quality, it is difficult to achieve anything in the future.
These words were harsh, even Li Changgeng's future was denied.
Of course, there are also some media who are more objective and believe that the reason why Hongcheng lost today was indeed because Li Changgeng did not play well, but Li Changgeng cannot be denied on this basis.
They pointed out that Hongcheng has experienced many tough battles since the divisional competition. If Li Changgeng's inner quality was really so fragile, it would have been exposed long ago. Why wait until today?Therefore, Li Changgeng is not weak in heart, but other reasons, maybe physical factors, maybe bad state.
But no matter what the reason is, for such a player, a poor performance in one game does not mean that he will perform poorly in the future, and it cannot be completely denied.
No matter what the outside media said, after losing the game, everyone in Hongcheng was in a bad mood, and the overall atmosphere was also very depressed.
The next day, Tao Ran gave everyone a holiday and allowed them to move around freely, so that everyone could relax and avoid affecting the next game.
Lu Feng, Nong Guang, and Sima Shenji called Nong Guang, A Mu, Long Xiaotian and others to go shopping, but Li Changgeng didn't go, and was bored in the room. He was very responsible for losing the game, and he really felt ashamed to see his teammates. I'm really not in the mood to go shopping or something.
"Crack."
With a soft sound, the door of the room was pushed open. Sima Shenji was wearing a tracksuit, and said to Li Changgeng in a non-negotiable tone, "Change your clothes and follow me."
"where to?"
"Just follow me." Sima Shenji said with a straight face.
Seeing Sima Shenji's expression, Li Changgeng didn't ask any more questions, changed into sports clothes, followed Sima Shenji out of the hotel, and walked all the way for about ten minutes. In the middle, Li Changgeng was stunned, and immediately understood that there was a stadium nearby.
Sima Shenji didn't stop, he continued to move forward, and walked a few tens of meters. A community court appeared in front of him. It was a very ordinary community court with a concrete floor and was surrounded by iron fences. There were two courts in it. People are playing with a ball on the field.
"How did you find this place?" Looking at the stadium, Li Changgeng couldn't help being curious.
"It's not important." Sima Shenji glanced at him, still with a straight face. He walked to the bottom of the half court, discussed with a player who was playing ball, borrowed a basketball from the player, and turned around to throw the ball. Throwing it to Li Changgeng, he said coldly, "Come on, let's play a single round."
The few people who were originally playing the ball in this half stopped, retreated to the sidelines, and looked at the two of them with some curiosity and some expectation.
Sima Shenji has a height of 1.9 meters, and Li Changgeng has a height of 1.8 meters. You can tell at a glance that he is someone who can play ball.
Now that the two are going to fight each other, the people around them are naturally interested, and they want to see what level these two people are?
"Why?" Li Changgeng looked at Sima Shenji, seeing Sima Shenji's resolute expression, he frowned slightly, and finally nodded, "Okay."
The two took off their jackets and only wore a T-shirt. Li Changgeng passed the ball to Sima Shenji. Sima Shenji walked to the free throw line, turned around and threw the ball to Li Changgeng, saying, "You come first."
"Okay." Li Changgeng caught the ball and lowered his center of gravity.
In an instant, the aura of the two of them exploded, and the invisible but clearly felt aura surprised the onlookers on the sidelines.
"It's so powerful, it looks like a master." A young man whispered.
"It must be a master." Another young man said, "I have seen many masters. It may be really rare to have this kind of momentum."
When the two were talking, Li Changgeng had already moved, a quick change of direction with his crotch, suddenly broke through to the left, very fast.
At this moment, the people on the sidelines were startled, because it was so fast, they only felt that Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji had already switched positions, and the two of them advanced and retreated, and scored a free throw close to each other. The line, before and after, is nothing more than a blink of an eye, which is horrifying.
Li Changgeng stuck to Sima Shenji, kept walking, and was very fast. When he stepped on the free throw line, he took three big strides and flew up.
"Snapped!"
With a crisp sound, the basketball was sent flying.
Li Changgeng froze on the spot, a little dazed, never expecting that his own ball would be slapped away by Sima Shenji.
Sima Shenji walked quickly and got the ball back before it went out of bounds. He returned to the three-point line and looked at Li Changgeng coldly: "It's me instead."
"Come on." Li Changgeng's expression became serious.
The people around were already stunned. When Sima Shenji blocked his shot just now, he flew into the air. From a low angle, he could see the soles of his shoes. How high did he have to jump?
At this moment, Sima Shenji controlled the ball, accelerated suddenly, dribbled the ball behind his back, changed hands, accelerated again, went into the inside and soared into the air. At least one meter above the ground, the people on the sidelines couldn't help but gasp in fright.
Originally they thought it would be another block, but Sima Shenji received the ball, stopped in the air, and glided from one side of the hoop to the other, avoiding Li Changgeng's block, and then his body Spread out, lift the ball in your hand, and score with a backhand layup.
"Brilliant!"
"This bounce is too exaggerated!"
On the sidelines, a group of onlookers trembled with excitement. In such a community stadium, have they ever seen such a master?
More and more people noticed the duel here, and they all moved closer together, forming a circle on the sidelines, staring at the field.
Some girls even saw the commotion here and came over one after another. When they saw two tall and handsome guys on the field, they immediately decided not to leave.Not to mention whether he played well or not, just looking at these two handsome guys is eye-catching.
"Come again." Li Changgeng stared at Sima Shenji and roared.
After the first ball was blocked by Sima Shenji, Li Changgeng didn't touch the ball again. This was already the sixth round, and Sima Shenji scored six goals in a row.
Heads-ups are usually played with ten balls, but now it is 6:0, which is not a big deal.
But it was different for Li Changgeng, he and Sima Shenji often singled out each other, but he hadn't been beaten so badly by Sima Shenji since a long time ago.
"Okay." Sima Shenji nodded and accelerated suddenly.
Li Changgeng thought he was going to break through again, so he stepped back half a step to get stuck, but at this moment he found that the ball in Sima Shenji's hand was gone.Yes, just for a moment, the ball in Sima Shenji's hand suddenly disappeared, and then there was a bang as the ball hit the board.
"Could it be?" Li Changgeng's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly rushed towards Sima Shenji.
It's a pity that his reaction was still a beat slow. Sima Shenji had already activated quickly, jumped to the side, then rushed into the inside line, jumped up, just in time to catch the basketball that bounced back from the hitting board.With a roar, he grabbed the basketball with one hand and dunked it hard.
"Bang!"
The loud sound made the eardrums tremble, and also made the onlookers on the sidelines feel swayed. Everyone's mouths were too big to close, and there was only the sound of gasping for air.
God, what did we see?
Isn't this one of McGrady's classic moves, a self-throwing ball and a dunk?
Some people who have seen McGrady complete this dunk were shocked, and those who didn't know were all smacking their tongues, even those girls. Many of them don't know basketball, but it doesn't mean they can't appreciate the domineering and aggressiveness contained in this dunk. beauty.
"Who is this man?"
At this moment, such a sentence popped up in everyone's mind.
Some girls were even more nympho-faced, staring at Sima Shenji intently, thinking whether to go up and ask for a phone number later.
On the field, Sima Shenji didn't know what these people were thinking, and he didn't care what they were thinking. He just looked at Li Changgeng, and seeing Li Changgeng stunned, Sima Shenji's anger rose in his heart.
He grabbed the basketball, threw it at Li Changgeng vigorously, and cursed: "Are you still the Li Changgeng I know? Are you still that talented and unrivaled guy? Look at you now This virtue, I really misunderstood you, I didn't expect you to be a softie who can't stand the blow when encountering a little thing, and becomes depressed."
Li Changgeng caught the basketball subconsciously and shouted, "I'm not a softie."
"Not a softie?" Sima Shenji nodded and waved at him, "Okay, prove it to me, come on, buckle one in front of me."
"." Li Changgeng didn't speak, and used actions to counterattack. He started to dribble, lowered his center of gravity, and his body bent slightly, like a cheetah ready to go. A cold aura burst out from him, making everyone around Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
With a whoosh sound, Li Changgeng moved and broke through to the left, Sima Shenji also quickly moved to the right, but Li Changgeng quickly changed direction, the speed did not decrease at all, but was even faster, and he rushed away from Sima Shenji in an instant. He walked over, stepped into the free throw line, and flew up.
"Drink!" Li Changgeng yelled violently, holding the basketball with one hand, his body bent suddenly like a bow, and his arms raised.
At this moment, he seemed to be still and stopped in the air.
"It's so terrifying to stay in the air!" On the sidelines, a group of people all stared wide-eyed, watching this scene in disbelief.
The next moment, from stillness to movement, the basketball in Li Changgeng's hand was like a cannonball. As his arm fell, it pierced through the net fiercely. Li Changgeng grabbed the rim with one hand and pulled the rim severely. Transformed, the other hand punched the chest, and roared: "Ah!"
Letting go, falling from the basket, Li Changgeng looked at Sima Shenji with red eyes, and said word by word: "I'm not a softie."
"I believe it." Sima Shenji nodded, smiled from the heart, and said to Li Changgeng sincerely: "I knew it when I saw your dunk. You are still the same Li Changgeng. To see you like this, not the you you were yesterday."
"I..." Li Changgeng opened his mouth, but felt sore in his heart, his eyes were moist, he blinked and said, "Thank you."
"Hehe." Sima Shenji smiled, "You're being polite to me, are you annoying? Let's go, go back."
"Don't finish this game? I haven't beaten you yet."
"Look, can you still play?" Sima Shenji pointed to the backboard, and Li Changgeng turned around to look, and couldn't help being stunned. It turned out that he used too much force just now. It can't even compare with Hongcheng's.After being dunked by him, the rim has been bent downward at [-] degrees, and it can no longer bounce back. Even the tempered backboard has cracks.
Looking at the onlookers around, they are already stupid, dunking is already awesome enough, and even dunking the rim deformed, isn't that too perverted?
"Let's go, maybe you won't be able to leave later, I don't have so much money to pay for their baskets and backboards." Sima Shenji pulled Li Changgeng, and Li Changgeng came to his senses, deeply convinced, The two picked up their coats and fled like thieves.
Walking on the road, Li Changgeng felt that the gloom in his heart had disappeared, and he was in an unprecedentedly good mood. Looking at Sima Shenji beside him, he said again: "Sima Shenji, thank you."
"Hehe, I told you not to be so polite, aren't we brothers?"
"Thank you, brother." Li Changgeng said, biting the last word "brother" very hard, and he laughed happily. It's great to have such a brother!
It takes only ten minutes to go back to the hotel from the community stadium, and we will arrive in a short while.
Approaching the entrance of the hotel, Sima Shenji stopped suddenly, and said to Li Changgeng, "You should be in a much better mood now, right?"
"En." Li Changgeng nodded.
Sima Shenji said: "Then can you tell me what's going on with you these few days? You can tell me what's on your mind."
"It's okay, I still have lingering fears about the provincial league last time, but it's fine now."
"That's good."
The two left quickly...
Soon everyone in the Hongcheng City team discovered Li Changgeng's change. The old Li Changgeng had returned, which made them very happy. In addition, the depression of losing the game yesterday was also swept away. Everyone gathered together, talking and talking. Laugh, the atmosphere is joyful.
"Tomorrow is the second round of the final. We must win this time. Let the people from BJ Luguang see how good we are." Sima Shenji waved his fist excitedly.
"As well as those media, we have to tell them to shut up obediently." Nong Guang was obviously displeased with the media's reaction, and said viciously, "Tell them to dare to underestimate us."
In fact, the reason why everyone was in a bad mood and feeling depressed was that yesterday's loss was partly due to Li Changgeng's problems.
Now that Li Changgeng has recovered, everyone's mood has naturally improved, and their fighting spirit and confidence have also returned. Everyone is full of ambition and is determined to teach BJ Luguang a lesson.
Seeing this, Li Changgeng couldn't help feeling guilty. He really shouldn't have done it, because his personal affairs affected the entire team, and even led to the loss of the game yesterday.He secretly swore that tomorrow's game must be won, and he must never lose again.
At night, when everyone had dinner together, Li Changgeng purposely sat down with Tao Ran and sincerely apologized to Tao Ran.
"Hmph, do you think I can forgive you with an apology?" Tao Ran put on a straight face, and Li Changgeng lowered his head in fright, but Tao Ran said again, "If you want me to forgive you, then give me tomorrow's match. Win. If you can't win, I'll beat you to death when you come back."
Hearing this, Li Changgeng suddenly raised his head and grinned: "Coach, don't worry, we will definitely win tomorrow. If we lose, it's up to you."
"Okay, eat."
During the banquet, everyone was active and cheerful. After eating, Tao Ran called everyone together and began to analyze BJ Luguang's tactics, explaining the main points to everyone.
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened. Everyone was very serious, and their hearts were full of fighting spirit, because tomorrow, they will be shamed!
Boao Center, Basketball Hall.
Today is the second round of the Hongcheng and BJ Green Light Finals, and the auditorium is also crowded with tens of thousands of spectators.
On the sidelines, many media people have set up long guns and short cannons, aiming at the court.
Some people couldn't wait to point their cameras at Hongcheng or BJ Green Light. Although the game hadn't started yet, they had already started taking pictures. They wanted to get some photos. Maybe after the game, they could find the bright spots from these photos. indefinite.
Youth Basketball News reporter Yang Yangyang was one of them. He picked up his beloved camera, pointed the lens at the Hongcheng players who were warming up on the court, and pressed the shutter from time to time.
"Old Yang." On the side, a fellow reporter patted Yang Yangyang with a smile, and said with a smile, "I said the competition hasn't started yet, but you have been taking pictures non-stop."
"Hehe." Yang Yangyang smiled, "I have to be afraid of some material first, and connect it with the photos after the game, so that it will be more comprehensive."
The colleague was a little disapproving, and laughed jokingly: "Then I advise you to take more pictures of BJ Green Light. What's the use of taking pictures of Hongcheng? I think they still lost today. No matter how good your report is, it's useless. Who would want to?" Follow a losing team?"
Hearing this, Yang Yangyang frowned, and said perfunctorily, "I know what to do, I will shoot BJ Green Light later." He is a die-hard fan of Hong Cheng. Although Hong Cheng lost the last game, he absolutely believes in Hong Cheng This game must be won.
Like Yang Yangyang, Wang Xianba also believed that Hongcheng could win because he had been watching Li Changgeng for a while.He found that today's Li Changgeng was obviously different from the last one, with a calm expression on his face, a smile on his mouth, very peaceful and confident.
Seeing this, Wang Xianba was so happy that he almost slapped the table, and said excitedly, "Yes, that's it, this is Li Changgeng!"
The game is about to start.
Everyone in Hongcheng gathered around Tao Ran. Tao Ran spread out the tactical board and arranged it for everyone.
In fact, there is nothing to arrange, the tactics are all arranged, and some things that need to be paid attention to Tao Ran told everyone last night, and now he is just telling everyone again, and then he is to cheer everyone up and ask everyone to kill BJ Green Light .
"Coach, don't worry, we will not let you down."
"Yes, we will definitely do our best."
Several people spoke one after another, and everyone's eyes were firm. They must win this match, even if it is desperate.
In the end, Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji, Nong Guang, Aaron, and Sima Shenji formed a circle, put their hands on top of each other, and shouted in unison: "We can only win but not lose!"
Not far away, the people from BJ Luguang frowned when they heard the voice here. They keenly felt that Hongcheng's aura was different from the last one.
"beep"
The whistle blows, jump ball.
"Mine." Nong Guang yelled, jumped up quickly, managed to touch the ball before Jiang Junye, and tipped the ball to Sima Shenji.
"Beautiful job." Sima Shenji praised, stabilized the ball, and pushed it forward slowly.
After crossing the center line, Sima Shenji was not in a hurry, he controlled the ball steadily, and made a gesture with one hand, and the people in Hongcheng began to run quickly.
When Aaron mentioned going up the line, he set a screen for Li Changgeng. Li Changgeng ran out of space, and Sima Shenji quickly passed the ball. When he took the ball, he accelerated and rushed to the inside line. After attracting Jiang Junye's attention, he made a pass from behind. The ball was given to Nong Guang. With a grin, Nong Guang jumped up and dunked with both hands.
2: 0.
BJ Green Light attacked, and Qiao San handed the ball to Li Tianming after halftime. Li Tianming took advantage of his teammate's pick-and-roll to step back and make a shot.
The goal is scored, 2:2 draw.
Turning around, Li Changgeng took the ball, first made a breakthrough movement, then suddenly changed direction, took a step back, and retreated beyond the three-point line, pulled up and shot.
"Shh!"
Hollow, three points are effective.
The ball was clean and neat, and it was very beautiful. Wang Xianba couldn't help giving a thumbs up after seeing it, and he had more confidence in Hongcheng.
"This Li Changgeng, why is it different from the last match?" Li Tianming thought to himself, his brows furrowed, he felt a huge pressure, this kind of pressure was something he didn't feel on Li Changgeng in the last match , which he had never felt before.
On the sidelines, a smile finally appeared on Tao Ran's face. When he saw the ball, he knew that the former Li Changgeng had really returned.Not only that, after experiencing this incident, Tao Ran felt that Li Changgeng was a little different, as if his mood had changed.
With a "snap", Ye Wenqi's layup was slapped down by Nong Guang, the ball rolled to the outside line, and Sima Shenji took it into his arms. He looked ahead, his eyes lit up, and he pushed hard with both hands , passed the ball flat and straight to Li Changgeng, Li Changgeng took the ball and rushed forward quickly.
Li Tianming followed Li Changgeng closely, sticking close to him and entering the three-point line, while Qiao San was already standing in the penalty area, waiting for Li Changgeng to come over.
At this time, Li Changgeng made an unexpected move.
I saw that he was sandwiched between Li Tianming and Qiao San, but he threw the ball towards the backboard suddenly. He didn't aim at the basket at all, and he didn't even look at the rim. Hit the backboard and bounced back.
"Rebound!" Li Tianming shouted.
"Be careful." Qiao San didn't care about the rebound, but exclaimed.
A figure flashed past, flew up from behind, jumped very high, with both feet away from the ground, and the whole person swept a certain distance in the air, with both hands held high, pressing down on Li Tianming to catch the rebounding basketball, and raising both hands , Slammed down hard at the basket.
"Bang!"
"Wow"
The sound of the ball being fastened to the basket and the uproar sounded almost at the same time. The tens of thousands of spectators were all shocked, and many people even stood up.
"My God, it turned out to be a combination of hitting the board and making up the buckle. That guy jumped so high!" A crowd in the audience couldn't help but exclaimed.
In an instant, the sound of gasping came and went, and everyone was immersed in the shock, shocked by the tacit cooperation of the ball and the splendor of the dunk.
Li Tianming was knocked staggered and fell to the ground. He just got up now, his face was gloomy and terrible. Instead of looking at Sima Shenji, he stared at Li Changgeng, as if he wanted to eat someone: "What a Li. Chang Geng, I really underestimated you, just wait for me."
At 20:18, Hongcheng led by two points, and at this time, 37 minutes and [-] seconds had passed in the first quarter.
BJ Greenlight attacked, Qiao San controlled the ball and passed the center line, Li Tianming ran to the three-point line to ask for the ball, after receiving the ball, he feinted, then accelerated, and broke through from the left hand side, Li Changgeng was close to Li Tianming, but Li Tianming Tianming paused, slammed on the brakes, and stopped for a jump shot.
"Shh!"
The goal was scored, 20:20.
Li Tianming pointed at Li Changgeng arrogantly, then hooked his fingers, and mouthed to Li Changgeng: "If you have the ability, hit me alone, come on!"
"I will." Li Changgeng secretly said in his heart, but his face was unmoved, just a faint smile.
Sima Shenji quickly crossed the halfway line. Li Changgeng didn't go up to ask for the ball, but just wandered outside the three-point line. Li Tianming was very disdainful, and sneered, "Why, you even challenged me one-on-one. Don't you have the courage? It seems that you are just a coward."
"Why should I fight you one-on-one?" Li Changgeng grinned, moved suddenly, his shoulders shook twice, and he accelerated.
Li Tianming groaned inwardly, and even chased after Li Changgeng, but just after he caught up with Li Changgeng, he saw Li Changgeng suddenly turn around 360 degrees, go around him, then step on the three-point line with both feet, catch the ball, Without stopping at all, he took the ball and shot directly.
Li Tianming's eyelids twitched at that speed of attack, feeling extremely helpless.
"Shh!"
Go in, three points.
At 23:20, Hongcheng took the lead again.
However, BJ Greenlight soon tied the score. At the ninth minute and 21 seconds of the first quarter, Jiang Junye attracted a double-team and quickly split the ball. Ye Wenqi made an air cut, caught the ball and scored a layup, tying the score.
The two sides battled to 26:26.
At this time, with 39 seconds left before the end of the first quarter, Hongcheng attacked. Sima Shenji took the ball, broke through, and went inside. To a person in the left bottom corner, a big number 24 on the jersey.
"Li Changgeng." Sima Shenji threw it vigorously.
The ball bounced on the floor and landed in Li Changgeng's hands. Li Changgeng made some adjustments, bent his knees and jumped up. Li Tianming flew forward, his hands already sealed to his face.
"Shh!"
Still in!
It was another three-pointer, and the score was opened again. At 29:26, Hongcheng took the lead.
"Good shot!" Wang Xianba clapped his hands and laughed happily.
Beside, Huang Jingao looked dignified, glanced at the scoreboard, and sighed: "What a cold-blooded killer, two consecutive three-pointers, each of which is when the score is tied, each time is very important, BJ Greenlight It was a big blow to BJ Luguang." He looked at Wang Xianba and said, "Old Wang, I admit that I was wrong earlier, this Li Changgeng is really great."
"Hehe, what did I say, you know I didn't lie to you." Wang Xianba said with a smile, the more he looked at Li Changgeng, the more pleasing he was.
In the last 20 seconds, BJ Greenlight missed the buzzer. At the end of the first quarter, Hongcheng temporarily led by 29 points at 26:3.
In the auditorium, tens of thousands of spectators felt strange in their hearts at this moment. Before that, who would have expected that Hong Cheng would take the lead?
"Haha, you guys played very well, take a rest first." Tao Ran said with a smile, and began to arrange tactics for the rotation lineup.
In the second quarter, Hongcheng and BJ Greenlight both changed their rotation.
This time, like the previous game, Hongcheng's rotation was still at a disadvantage, the lead was quickly lost, and the score was overtaken by the opponent.
However, Hongcheng played very tenaciously and fiercely. Although they couldn't restrain themselves from falling behind, they couldn't widen the point difference by much.
By the 6th minute of the second quarter, Hongcheng was 37 points behind at 41:4.
At this time, Tao Ran decisively replaced Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, let Sima Shenji pass the ball for Li Changgeng, and Li Changgeng was in charge of the offense.
Seeing Li Changgeng, BJ Luguang also sent Li Tianming, the duel between the two super shooting guards can be said to be non-stop.
Hongcheng attacked, Li Changgeng took the ball, accelerated, changed direction, jumped, and a series of movements were flowing like clouds and flowing water. Not only did he get rid of Li Tianming, but he also passed BJ Greenlight's substitute center Xu Fengmang, facing the basket that was very close at hand. , scored an easy layup.
39: 41.
Li Tianming made a breakthrough but failed to succeed. He quickly split the ball. His teammate made a shot one step inside the three-point line. The ball bounced out of the frame and Lu Feng grabbed the rebound.
The ball quickly passed to the frontcourt. Li Changgeng took the ball, turned around and leaned back after an acceleration, the parabola was very high, passed Li Tianming's fingertips, and flew into the basket.
"Shh!"
41:41, tied!
If in the first quarter Li Changgeng played a cold-blooded killer who always stabbed you at critical moments, then now Li Changgeng has become a bloody butcher. Just to score, can you stop it?
Hongcheng's tactics are very clear, Li Changgeng will attack, and he will decide whether to play singles or pass the ball.
This tactical task assignment is clear, and can maximize Li Changgeng's role, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, as long as Li Changgeng is restricted, then Hongcheng's offense will come to a stalemate, and the entire team will become stagnant as a result. stand up.
For this point, BJ Greenlight went up to the coach Wu Yanzu, down to the players, and even many spectators in the audience can see it.
But the problem is that BJ Greenlight can't restrain Li Changgeng at all. He has superb personal ability, he is not afraid of anyone one-on-one, and he has a good passing skill. Get the ball to the right person.
Therefore, from the moment Li Changgeng came on the stage, BJ Greenlight could no longer take advantage, and the score continued to be stalemate. Sometimes you lead, and sometimes I lead.
"Shh!"
Li Changgeng made a breakthrough with the ball and scored a very difficult pull-up layup. The score became 51:51, and there were 7 seconds left in the second quarter.
Seven seconds later, BJ Green Light attacked, and the ball quickly reached Li Tianming's hands. Seeing that the time was running out, he took a step back and forced a shot from outside the three-point line.
The ball didn't go in!
"beep"
At the end of the first half, the two teams tied.
"Good job, let's rest for a while, you may be required to play in the third quarter." Tao Ran said to Li Changgeng with a smile.
"En." Li Changgeng nodded, and sat down beside Sima Shenji.
The score was tied, and at the end of the first half, no one seemed to be able to take advantage, but everyone in Hongcheng knew that the score would be drawn again in the third quarter, because Hongcheng's background could not be compared with the opponent's, and the rotation lineup Playing will definitely be suppressed by the opponent.
After a while, the game started.
Lu Feng, Nong Guang, Luo Tian, A Mu, and Long Xiaotian entered the stage. Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji and others stood up one after another and gave them high fives one by one.
"Don't worry, although we can't guarantee that the score will not be overtaken, I can guarantee that the score difference will never exceed 10 points." Lu Feng grinned, but his tone was very serious. There is an unyielding fighting spirit.
"We will not let you down, don't forget, we are also a member of the team." Nong Guang also said with a chilling expression.
The third quarter begins.
From the first minute, Hongcheng showed an extremely fierce style of play, every defense was extremely active, and every fight was extremely desperate. This kind of toughness made BJ Greenlight very uncomfortable, so that He made repeated mistakes.
However, Hongcheng also failed to seize the opportunity, and only a small half of the opponent's mistakes were converted into counterattack points.
Even so, it is enough!
BJ Luguang attacked, the ball hit the inside lane, BJ Luguang's substitute center flew up, intending to make a dunk, but unexpectedly, a person next to him also jumped up quickly, waved his arm fiercely, and slapped him on the hand , Pulling the ball down directly.
"beep"
The whistle sounded and the referee gave Lu Feng a foul.
BJ Greenlight stepped up to the free throw line as a substitute center, and subconsciously glanced at Lu Feng. Seeing the fierce light in Lu Feng's eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt chills all over his body. No points scored.
Hongcheng's defense is too fierce. Although they are a bit weak in offense, this kind of desperate defense alone makes BJ Luguang feel overwhelmed.
A few minutes passed, and both sides only scored a few points, and the point difference was only widened by two points, which was a bit unexpected.
Seeing this, Wu Yanzu called a timeout and rearranged the arrangement.
When he returned to the court, BJ Greenlight enhanced his outside projection and gradually widened the point difference, but the speed of this widening was not fast, and the point difference has not been large.
By the end of the third quarter, Tao Ran didn't send Li Changgeng on the field, because there was no need for that, and the point difference was only 7 points.
Coming down from the field, Lu Feng and the others received the warmest cheers from everyone in Hongcheng.
Several people were drenched in sweat, and Lu Feng and Nong Guang, who fought the most fiercely, even turned pale. They grinned silly and were very happy, because they finally made contributions to the team with their own efforts, and finally proved that The value of your own existence!
"You guys take a break." Tao Ran was also very relieved, his eyes were moist, he turned to Li Changgeng and the others and said, "Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji, Nong Guang, Aaron, Sima Shenji, you will play the fourth quarter later You must win, don't let down Lu Feng's efforts."
"Yes." Several people agreed, looked at each other, and said in unison: "Definitely, must, must win!"
When the fourth quarter started, the tens of thousands of spectators in the auditorium all became nervous, sitting upright, staring at the court intently.
Next to the technical platform, Wang Xianba said in a deep voice, "It's time for the bayonet to see its red light!"
"Yes." Huang Jingao also nodded and said, "Shuangxing vs. BJ Shuangjun, this episode will definitely be exciting, look forward to it!" He has done enough homework, even knows the nicknames of Shuangxing and BJ Shuangjun.
On the court, BJ Green Light attacked, Qiao San quickly crossed the center line, signaled his teammates to come up for the pick-and-roll, and then made a breakthrough and gave it to Chen Qidong, who made a jumper.
At 63:72, Hongcheng fell behind by 9 points.
"The ball." Li Changgeng Liu Kai asked for the ball with both hands, Sima Shenji quickly passed it to him, Li Tianming quickly stuck it up, Liu Kai with one hand, and Li Changgeng's waist with the other.
This kind of defense will make the attacker very uncomfortable. If the waist is stuck, it will be difficult to burst out with strength. At the same time, if two people are in contact, once there is any movement, the defender can react quickly.
However, this was nothing to Li Changgeng.
He backed up abruptly, then changed direction, with a large range and fast speed, and instantly escaped from Li Tianming's defensive range, accelerated, and killed him.
"Damn it!" Li Tianming chased after him.
It's a pity, once Li Changgeng's speed increases, how can he catch up, I saw Li Changgeng quickly rushed to the basket, made a reverse basket, and scored easily.
65: 72.
Li Tianming couldn't guard Li Changgeng, and Chen Qidong couldn't guard Sima Shenji either. Soon Sima Shenji hit a three-pointer and assisted Nong Guang to score one. The difference between the two sides quickly narrowed. Unknowingly, The score has become 70:74, and Hongcheng is only 4 points behind.
Wu Yanzu even called a timeout, trying to curb Hongcheng's momentum of chasing points.
But when the timeout ended, Hongcheng's momentum was not contained, but became more and more fierce. First, Li Changgeng made a three-pointer, and then Sima Shenji made a jump shot. A wave of 7:2 overtook the score.
77:76, Hongcheng leads by one point.
However, BJ Greenlight is the defending champion after all. Even though the pressure was very high at this time, everyone still played very patiently. Tianming made a shot at the buzzer to overtake the score.
This is the role of the core players. They can always stand up at critical moments, score vital goals, and stabilize the situation.
(End of this chapter)
Tao Ran's face was livid, and he couldn't stand it any longer. In addition to the thug's foul, Li Changgeng had already committed three fouls. He hadn't finished the first quarter. How would he play the rest of the game?In desperation, he quickly called a timeout and replaced Li Changgeng.
(In accordance with FIBA standards, the national league has a maximum of five personal fouls, not six in the NBA)
"Didn't I tell you that you must pay attention to fouls? You have already received three fouls in the first quarter, how will you play the rest of the game?" When Li Changgeng came down, Tao Ran didn't care that Li Changgeng was the core of the team. , beloved disciple, roared at him.
"Coach, I...I just want to defend this ball." Li Changgeng said in a low voice.
"It's true that you want to defend the ball, but have you ever thought about it? Even if the ball is scored by the opponent, it is only a two-pointer, but now you have not only achieved a 2+1 for the opponent, but also accompanied it once. Foul." Tao Ran said angrily, "Think about it, is it worth it?"
This is of course not worth it, not to mention that Li Changgeng is the core of the team, receiving three regulations so early, it is a big blow to the team.
Li Changgeng lowered his head and had nothing to say.
Sima Shenji, Nong Guang, Lu Feng and others tried to persuade Li Changgeng, but they also felt very uncomfortable.
This is not a problem of Li Changgeng alone, but a problem of the entire team.
"Hey, Li Changgeng will definitely be restricted in the next game, and it will be even more difficult for us to play." Nong Guang sighed in a low voice.
"Today's match is really frustrating." Sima Shenji thought to himself, clenched his fists tightly.
Sima Shenji was thinking that Li Changgeng would definitely be restricted in the next match, so he had to take on more responsibilities, and he was a little uncertain.
In any case, the atmosphere in Hongcheng became very oppressive at this moment.
With more than a minute left in the first quarter, Tao Ran simply did not let Li Changgeng play, and replaced Li Changgeng with Amu.Of course, he also rearranged his tactics and re-divided everyone's tasks before waving his hand and saying, "Let's go."
"Yes." Several people came on stage.
Looking at the few people on the field, Tao Ran sighed silently. From dual-core to single-core, this lineup is bound to suffer.
Sure enough, apart from Sima Shenji, the other members of this lineup are somewhat inferior in ability compared to BJ Luguang. Although they are all active, they haven't gained much. We can only rely on Sima Shenji for offense. The machine's personal strength gets points.
This is also BJ Luguang's deliberate intention. If Li Changgeng goes down, only Sima Shenji will be left in Hongcheng as a difficult figure.If he increased his defensive strength against the others in Hongcheng, then most of Hongcheng's balls could only be handed over to Sima Shenji.
Anyway, it's all about playing Sima Shenji, so it's much easier to defend.
In terms of defense, Hongcheng couldn't restrict BJ Greenlight. Originally, BJ Greenlight's configuration of one inside and one outside was terrifying. Now that Li Changgeng is missing, Amu's speed can't keep up with Li Tianming at all, and he was almost blown away by Li Tianming. If you want to rush, you can vote, if you want to vote, you simply treat Amu as a transparent person.
Fortunately, Nong Guang was stimulated by Li Changgeng's end and became more aggressive. He fought desperately with Jiang Junye in the interior, which greatly increased the pressure on Jiang Junye, and failed to score two consecutive attacks.
Moreover, Sima Shenji went berserk, and within a minute or so, he took care of all Hongcheng's attacks by himself.
I saw that he broke through Chen Qidong first, hit a difficult pull-up jumper, and then hit a three-pointer when he ran out of open space to catch the ball.However, in just over a minute, with three offensive opportunities, Sima Shenji made 3 of 2 shots and scored 5 points for Hongcheng.
This efficiency is not surprising.
"beep"
The whistle sounded, the first quarter ended, the score was fixed at 26:18, and Hongcheng fell behind by 8 points.
"Being behind by 8 points in the first quarter, Li Changgeng has already committed three fouls. This game is really fucking bad." Tao Ran, who has always been civilized, couldn't help but swear.
But no matter what, the game has to continue, and we have to play as we should.
Soon, the second quarter started, and Tao Ran first sent out a rotation lineup, but within a few minutes of playing, the point difference was stretched to 13 points. In desperation, he could only call a timeout, looked at Sima Shenji, and asked Said: "Sima Shenji, how are you resting?"
"Coach, I've already rested." Sima got up, knowing that he had to do it by himself at this time.
"Okay." Tao Ran didn't hesitate, and replaced Sima Shenji.
On BJ Green Light's side, Li Tianming was also replaced, and they would not give Hong Cheng any chance to chase points wantonly.
The remaining few minutes of the second quarter completely turned into a performance by Sima Shenji and Li Tianming. If you get one, I will also get another one. Anyway, no one will let the other, and no one can do anything to the other.
Just like that, at the end of the second quarter, Sima Shenji scored another 12 points, and Li Tianming also scored 10 points. There was not much difference between the two.
But looking at the score again, Hongcheng was still behind.
After all, although Sima Shenji scored 2 points more than Li Tianming, the other players in Hongcheng lost to BJ Luguang. BJ Luguang scored 10 points in total except Li Tianming, while Hongcheng's Several people added up to get 6 points.
At 55:40, Hongcheng was already 15 points behind.
"Quick attack."
BJ Luguang got the offensive rebound and quickly launched a fast break. The three players rushed forward in a zigzag shape. The point guard quickly distributed the ball. , another player flew up and easily made a dunk.
This is the 4th minute of the third quarter, and this ball is only one of the goals in this quarter, but with this ball scored, the score became 67:46.In a full 4 minutes, Hongcheng only scored 6 points, while the opponent had already scored 12 points.
Tao Ran couldn't sit still anymore, and even called a timeout, he didn't bother to reprimand Lu Feng and the others, so he just put on a straight face and said to Li Changgeng: "Go up later, attack me, but be careful not to foul, you have already Three fouls."
"Yes." Li Changgeng said repeatedly.
Li Changgeng was replaced here, and BJ Luguang also replaced Jiang Junye. They did not replace Li Tianming. On the one hand, Li Tianming played for a long time; The state is really not good, so Wu Yanzu thinks it will be the same for other defenses.
In fact, Li Changgeng's condition is really bad. He committed three fouls when he came up today, and after sitting on the bench for so long, his mind has calmed down, but his hands have also become cold.
After coming up, Li Changgeng made two shots in a row, but he didn't make a single shot.
It wasn't until the 6th minute that Li Changgeng made use of a breakthrough to reach the inside line, scored with a small throw, and scored 2 points for Hongcheng.
Starting from this ball, Li Changgeng's touch seems to be back again, and he fired from outside one after another. First, he made a catch-and-shoot three-pointer, and then he stepped back and hit a mid-range shot. Counting the previous breakthrough, he was alone. Already scored 7 points.
"Haha, Li Changgeng finally started to explode." Hongcheng's team members couldn't help but get excited.
Unfortunately, they were not happy for long.
Seeing that Li Changgeng started to show off his power, BJ Greenlight quickly changed their style of play. On offense, they consciously took advantage of Li Changgeng's weakness of three fouls. They tried to cause Li Changgeng to foul several times. Naturally, Li Changgeng would not be fooled, and they consciously restrained themselves on defense. a little.
But in this way, the loopholes in his position became bigger, and he was connected to two by the opponent.
In terms of defense, BJ Greenlight also further strengthened the defense against Li Changgeng. The outside players were very tight.
But Li Changgeng had three fouls on his back, and he didn't dare to be too aggressive, for fear of accidentally getting fouled, so he couldn't score a few goals in a row.
Under the ebb and flow, Hongcheng's momentum was contained again.
"Ah..." Tao Ran sighed helplessly, and could only order his players to help Li Changgeng cover the pick-and-roll more, so as to free up his shot space.
A few minutes passed quickly, and at the end of the third quarter, the score became 81:63, and Hongcheng was still 18 points behind.
In the auditorium, countless fans who supported BJ Greenlight started cheering. With 18 points difference, the victory is almost certain.
At the same time, in front of the TV, countless Hongcheng fans who watched the game were all sad. They were already 18 points behind, and Li Changgeng was in poor condition. It's hard as hell.
Even the head of Hongcheng, who rushed to BJ with the cheerleaders and was now standing near the stadium to cheer for Hongcheng, was in a hurry. He took advantage of the rest time and ran to the Hongcheng players' rest area to encourage the players. .
"Sima Shenji, Li Changgeng, Nong Guang, Aaron, you guys rest for another 2 minutes, and you can start after playing for 2 minutes." Tao Ran has his own considerations. His players have played a lot of time, so they must be allowed to play. Take a break first before making the last fight.
Turning around, Tao Ran began to arrange tactics for the rotation lineup
Like Hongcheng, BJ Luguang did not send in the starting lineup, and the rotation of the two sides was very fierce. BJ Luguang wanted to expand the advantage, while Hongcheng wanted to stabilize the score. The two sides competed for each other. His eyes were red.
Finally, 2 minutes later, because the two sides played too fiercely, the hit rate was not high. BJ Luguang scored two goals, and Hongcheng scored one. The score became 85:65, with a difference of 20 points.
Tao Ran called a timeout, replaced the starting lineup, and told them to play the offense and show momentum.
BJ Greenlight also changed into the starting lineup. In the last 8 minutes, they will not take it lightly and give Hongcheng a chance.
Hongcheng attacked, Sima Shenji took the ball, feinted, accelerated, hit the inside line and made a layup, and the point difference became 18 points.
Li Tianming made a breakthrough, turned around and made a hook
"Snapped!"
There was a light sound, followed by the whistle. The referee pointed at Li Changgeng, gave him a thug foul, and signaled Li Tianming to serve twice.
It was the 5th minute of the fourth quarter. Li Tianming made a breakthrough, followed by Li Changgeng, who then jumped up to block the shot. In the end, he got a foul. He had already fouled four times.
Tao Ran called a timeout again, gave some advice to the opponent's players, and looked at the scoreboard. It was 96:70, and Hongcheng was still 16 points behind.
"Alas," Tao Ran sighed, Hongcheng actually played well in this quarter, especially Sima Shenji, who scored 8 points alone, but Li Changgeng was restricted by fouls and played very badly. In a few minutes, 3 1 shot, only 3 points, and no one else, how can this point difference be narrowed?
Soon, the pause is over.
Players from both sides returned to the court, Li Tianming went to the free throw line and made both free throws.
With Hongcheng's possession of the ball, Sima Shenji advanced to the frontcourt. Sima Shenji took the ball and set up a pick-and-roll with his teammates, then leaned back and made a hit.
However, when he turned around, Li Tianming took advantage of Li Changgeng's weakness of fouling four times, made another breakthrough and scored two points.
"Hongcheng is going to lose." Huang Jingao suddenly said beside the technical stage.
Wang Xianba frowned, but he couldn't refute. He nodded depressedly and said, "They really can't win this game."
"Hehe." Huang Jingao knew that Wang Xianba was not reconciled, but he didn't say much, just smiled, and then looked at Li Changgeng, disapproving in his heart. How can such a player be so good if he loses the chain at this time?
On the court, the score is still rising.
With one and a half minutes left, Li Tianming made a breakthrough, stopped suddenly, and made a gesture to shoot. Li Changgeng jumped up quickly, but found that Li Tianming didn't take off at all.
The goal was missed, but he earned a foul. Li Changgeng raised his hand helplessly. He finally graduated with five fouls.
The graduation of Li Changgeng's five offenders meant that Hong Cheng had lost his last chance to turn the tables. After more than a minute, with a difference of more than ten points, the outcome was set. .
More than a minute passed quickly, and when the final whistle sounded, BJ Green Light's people suddenly cheered, and tens of thousands of spectators in the auditorium also stood up and cheered loudly.
Everyone in Hongcheng lowered their heads silently, followed Tao and walked towards the player tunnel.Sima Shenji, who was walking at the end, suddenly stopped, turned around and glanced at the scoreboard, clenched his fists tightly, and whispered to himself: "Next game, next game we must win."
There is no doubt that everyone in Hongcheng is unwilling, but the most unwilling person must be Sima Shenji.
Sima Shenji scored a game-high 42 points today. He scored almost half of Hongcheng's points by himself. His performance was so crazy that everyone gasped.However, Hong Cheng lost, even if he scored 42 points, he could still only become someone else's background.
Hongcheng lost, and those media who had long been pessimistic about Hongcheng became active, praising BJ Greenlight one after another, believing that BJ Greenlight would be able to successfully defend their title this year and win the championship again.As for Hongcheng, there is no doubt that they will lose.
Some media even questioned Li Changgeng.
Li Changgeng's performance today was really poor. He only scored 15 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds, and finally graduated with five fouls. It can be said that this is his worst game this season.
Many media seized on this point to criticize Li Changgeng, mercilessly, thinking that he is too difficult to take on the big responsibility, and he will lose the chain in the finals. With such a psychological quality, it is difficult to achieve anything in the future.
These words were harsh, even Li Changgeng's future was denied.
Of course, there are also some media who are more objective and believe that the reason why Hongcheng lost today was indeed because Li Changgeng did not play well, but Li Changgeng cannot be denied on this basis.
They pointed out that Hongcheng has experienced many tough battles since the divisional competition. If Li Changgeng's inner quality was really so fragile, it would have been exposed long ago. Why wait until today?Therefore, Li Changgeng is not weak in heart, but other reasons, maybe physical factors, maybe bad state.
But no matter what the reason is, for such a player, a poor performance in one game does not mean that he will perform poorly in the future, and it cannot be completely denied.
No matter what the outside media said, after losing the game, everyone in Hongcheng was in a bad mood, and the overall atmosphere was also very depressed.
The next day, Tao Ran gave everyone a holiday and allowed them to move around freely, so that everyone could relax and avoid affecting the next game.
Lu Feng, Nong Guang, and Sima Shenji called Nong Guang, A Mu, Long Xiaotian and others to go shopping, but Li Changgeng didn't go, and was bored in the room. He was very responsible for losing the game, and he really felt ashamed to see his teammates. I'm really not in the mood to go shopping or something.
"Crack."
With a soft sound, the door of the room was pushed open. Sima Shenji was wearing a tracksuit, and said to Li Changgeng in a non-negotiable tone, "Change your clothes and follow me."
"where to?"
"Just follow me." Sima Shenji said with a straight face.
Seeing Sima Shenji's expression, Li Changgeng didn't ask any more questions, changed into sports clothes, followed Sima Shenji out of the hotel, and walked all the way for about ten minutes. In the middle, Li Changgeng was stunned, and immediately understood that there was a stadium nearby.
Sima Shenji didn't stop, he continued to move forward, and walked a few tens of meters. A community court appeared in front of him. It was a very ordinary community court with a concrete floor and was surrounded by iron fences. There were two courts in it. People are playing with a ball on the field.
"How did you find this place?" Looking at the stadium, Li Changgeng couldn't help being curious.
"It's not important." Sima Shenji glanced at him, still with a straight face. He walked to the bottom of the half court, discussed with a player who was playing ball, borrowed a basketball from the player, and turned around to throw the ball. Throwing it to Li Changgeng, he said coldly, "Come on, let's play a single round."
The few people who were originally playing the ball in this half stopped, retreated to the sidelines, and looked at the two of them with some curiosity and some expectation.
Sima Shenji has a height of 1.9 meters, and Li Changgeng has a height of 1.8 meters. You can tell at a glance that he is someone who can play ball.
Now that the two are going to fight each other, the people around them are naturally interested, and they want to see what level these two people are?
"Why?" Li Changgeng looked at Sima Shenji, seeing Sima Shenji's resolute expression, he frowned slightly, and finally nodded, "Okay."
The two took off their jackets and only wore a T-shirt. Li Changgeng passed the ball to Sima Shenji. Sima Shenji walked to the free throw line, turned around and threw the ball to Li Changgeng, saying, "You come first."
"Okay." Li Changgeng caught the ball and lowered his center of gravity.
In an instant, the aura of the two of them exploded, and the invisible but clearly felt aura surprised the onlookers on the sidelines.
"It's so powerful, it looks like a master." A young man whispered.
"It must be a master." Another young man said, "I have seen many masters. It may be really rare to have this kind of momentum."
When the two were talking, Li Changgeng had already moved, a quick change of direction with his crotch, suddenly broke through to the left, very fast.
At this moment, the people on the sidelines were startled, because it was so fast, they only felt that Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji had already switched positions, and the two of them advanced and retreated, and scored a free throw close to each other. The line, before and after, is nothing more than a blink of an eye, which is horrifying.
Li Changgeng stuck to Sima Shenji, kept walking, and was very fast. When he stepped on the free throw line, he took three big strides and flew up.
"Snapped!"
With a crisp sound, the basketball was sent flying.
Li Changgeng froze on the spot, a little dazed, never expecting that his own ball would be slapped away by Sima Shenji.
Sima Shenji walked quickly and got the ball back before it went out of bounds. He returned to the three-point line and looked at Li Changgeng coldly: "It's me instead."
"Come on." Li Changgeng's expression became serious.
The people around were already stunned. When Sima Shenji blocked his shot just now, he flew into the air. From a low angle, he could see the soles of his shoes. How high did he have to jump?
At this moment, Sima Shenji controlled the ball, accelerated suddenly, dribbled the ball behind his back, changed hands, accelerated again, went into the inside and soared into the air. At least one meter above the ground, the people on the sidelines couldn't help but gasp in fright.
Originally they thought it would be another block, but Sima Shenji received the ball, stopped in the air, and glided from one side of the hoop to the other, avoiding Li Changgeng's block, and then his body Spread out, lift the ball in your hand, and score with a backhand layup.
"Brilliant!"
"This bounce is too exaggerated!"
On the sidelines, a group of onlookers trembled with excitement. In such a community stadium, have they ever seen such a master?
More and more people noticed the duel here, and they all moved closer together, forming a circle on the sidelines, staring at the field.
Some girls even saw the commotion here and came over one after another. When they saw two tall and handsome guys on the field, they immediately decided not to leave.Not to mention whether he played well or not, just looking at these two handsome guys is eye-catching.
"Come again." Li Changgeng stared at Sima Shenji and roared.
After the first ball was blocked by Sima Shenji, Li Changgeng didn't touch the ball again. This was already the sixth round, and Sima Shenji scored six goals in a row.
Heads-ups are usually played with ten balls, but now it is 6:0, which is not a big deal.
But it was different for Li Changgeng, he and Sima Shenji often singled out each other, but he hadn't been beaten so badly by Sima Shenji since a long time ago.
"Okay." Sima Shenji nodded and accelerated suddenly.
Li Changgeng thought he was going to break through again, so he stepped back half a step to get stuck, but at this moment he found that the ball in Sima Shenji's hand was gone.Yes, just for a moment, the ball in Sima Shenji's hand suddenly disappeared, and then there was a bang as the ball hit the board.
"Could it be?" Li Changgeng's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly rushed towards Sima Shenji.
It's a pity that his reaction was still a beat slow. Sima Shenji had already activated quickly, jumped to the side, then rushed into the inside line, jumped up, just in time to catch the basketball that bounced back from the hitting board.With a roar, he grabbed the basketball with one hand and dunked it hard.
"Bang!"
The loud sound made the eardrums tremble, and also made the onlookers on the sidelines feel swayed. Everyone's mouths were too big to close, and there was only the sound of gasping for air.
God, what did we see?
Isn't this one of McGrady's classic moves, a self-throwing ball and a dunk?
Some people who have seen McGrady complete this dunk were shocked, and those who didn't know were all smacking their tongues, even those girls. Many of them don't know basketball, but it doesn't mean they can't appreciate the domineering and aggressiveness contained in this dunk. beauty.
"Who is this man?"
At this moment, such a sentence popped up in everyone's mind.
Some girls were even more nympho-faced, staring at Sima Shenji intently, thinking whether to go up and ask for a phone number later.
On the field, Sima Shenji didn't know what these people were thinking, and he didn't care what they were thinking. He just looked at Li Changgeng, and seeing Li Changgeng stunned, Sima Shenji's anger rose in his heart.
He grabbed the basketball, threw it at Li Changgeng vigorously, and cursed: "Are you still the Li Changgeng I know? Are you still that talented and unrivaled guy? Look at you now This virtue, I really misunderstood you, I didn't expect you to be a softie who can't stand the blow when encountering a little thing, and becomes depressed."
Li Changgeng caught the basketball subconsciously and shouted, "I'm not a softie."
"Not a softie?" Sima Shenji nodded and waved at him, "Okay, prove it to me, come on, buckle one in front of me."
"." Li Changgeng didn't speak, and used actions to counterattack. He started to dribble, lowered his center of gravity, and his body bent slightly, like a cheetah ready to go. A cold aura burst out from him, making everyone around Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
With a whoosh sound, Li Changgeng moved and broke through to the left, Sima Shenji also quickly moved to the right, but Li Changgeng quickly changed direction, the speed did not decrease at all, but was even faster, and he rushed away from Sima Shenji in an instant. He walked over, stepped into the free throw line, and flew up.
"Drink!" Li Changgeng yelled violently, holding the basketball with one hand, his body bent suddenly like a bow, and his arms raised.
At this moment, he seemed to be still and stopped in the air.
"It's so terrifying to stay in the air!" On the sidelines, a group of people all stared wide-eyed, watching this scene in disbelief.
The next moment, from stillness to movement, the basketball in Li Changgeng's hand was like a cannonball. As his arm fell, it pierced through the net fiercely. Li Changgeng grabbed the rim with one hand and pulled the rim severely. Transformed, the other hand punched the chest, and roared: "Ah!"
Letting go, falling from the basket, Li Changgeng looked at Sima Shenji with red eyes, and said word by word: "I'm not a softie."
"I believe it." Sima Shenji nodded, smiled from the heart, and said to Li Changgeng sincerely: "I knew it when I saw your dunk. You are still the same Li Changgeng. To see you like this, not the you you were yesterday."
"I..." Li Changgeng opened his mouth, but felt sore in his heart, his eyes were moist, he blinked and said, "Thank you."
"Hehe." Sima Shenji smiled, "You're being polite to me, are you annoying? Let's go, go back."
"Don't finish this game? I haven't beaten you yet."
"Look, can you still play?" Sima Shenji pointed to the backboard, and Li Changgeng turned around to look, and couldn't help being stunned. It turned out that he used too much force just now. It can't even compare with Hongcheng's.After being dunked by him, the rim has been bent downward at [-] degrees, and it can no longer bounce back. Even the tempered backboard has cracks.
Looking at the onlookers around, they are already stupid, dunking is already awesome enough, and even dunking the rim deformed, isn't that too perverted?
"Let's go, maybe you won't be able to leave later, I don't have so much money to pay for their baskets and backboards." Sima Shenji pulled Li Changgeng, and Li Changgeng came to his senses, deeply convinced, The two picked up their coats and fled like thieves.
Walking on the road, Li Changgeng felt that the gloom in his heart had disappeared, and he was in an unprecedentedly good mood. Looking at Sima Shenji beside him, he said again: "Sima Shenji, thank you."
"Hehe, I told you not to be so polite, aren't we brothers?"
"Thank you, brother." Li Changgeng said, biting the last word "brother" very hard, and he laughed happily. It's great to have such a brother!
It takes only ten minutes to go back to the hotel from the community stadium, and we will arrive in a short while.
Approaching the entrance of the hotel, Sima Shenji stopped suddenly, and said to Li Changgeng, "You should be in a much better mood now, right?"
"En." Li Changgeng nodded.
Sima Shenji said: "Then can you tell me what's going on with you these few days? You can tell me what's on your mind."
"It's okay, I still have lingering fears about the provincial league last time, but it's fine now."
"That's good."
The two left quickly...
Soon everyone in the Hongcheng City team discovered Li Changgeng's change. The old Li Changgeng had returned, which made them very happy. In addition, the depression of losing the game yesterday was also swept away. Everyone gathered together, talking and talking. Laugh, the atmosphere is joyful.
"Tomorrow is the second round of the final. We must win this time. Let the people from BJ Luguang see how good we are." Sima Shenji waved his fist excitedly.
"As well as those media, we have to tell them to shut up obediently." Nong Guang was obviously displeased with the media's reaction, and said viciously, "Tell them to dare to underestimate us."
In fact, the reason why everyone was in a bad mood and feeling depressed was that yesterday's loss was partly due to Li Changgeng's problems.
Now that Li Changgeng has recovered, everyone's mood has naturally improved, and their fighting spirit and confidence have also returned. Everyone is full of ambition and is determined to teach BJ Luguang a lesson.
Seeing this, Li Changgeng couldn't help feeling guilty. He really shouldn't have done it, because his personal affairs affected the entire team, and even led to the loss of the game yesterday.He secretly swore that tomorrow's game must be won, and he must never lose again.
At night, when everyone had dinner together, Li Changgeng purposely sat down with Tao Ran and sincerely apologized to Tao Ran.
"Hmph, do you think I can forgive you with an apology?" Tao Ran put on a straight face, and Li Changgeng lowered his head in fright, but Tao Ran said again, "If you want me to forgive you, then give me tomorrow's match. Win. If you can't win, I'll beat you to death when you come back."
Hearing this, Li Changgeng suddenly raised his head and grinned: "Coach, don't worry, we will definitely win tomorrow. If we lose, it's up to you."
"Okay, eat."
During the banquet, everyone was active and cheerful. After eating, Tao Ran called everyone together and began to analyze BJ Luguang's tactics, explaining the main points to everyone.
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened. Everyone was very serious, and their hearts were full of fighting spirit, because tomorrow, they will be shamed!
Boao Center, Basketball Hall.
Today is the second round of the Hongcheng and BJ Green Light Finals, and the auditorium is also crowded with tens of thousands of spectators.
On the sidelines, many media people have set up long guns and short cannons, aiming at the court.
Some people couldn't wait to point their cameras at Hongcheng or BJ Green Light. Although the game hadn't started yet, they had already started taking pictures. They wanted to get some photos. Maybe after the game, they could find the bright spots from these photos. indefinite.
Youth Basketball News reporter Yang Yangyang was one of them. He picked up his beloved camera, pointed the lens at the Hongcheng players who were warming up on the court, and pressed the shutter from time to time.
"Old Yang." On the side, a fellow reporter patted Yang Yangyang with a smile, and said with a smile, "I said the competition hasn't started yet, but you have been taking pictures non-stop."
"Hehe." Yang Yangyang smiled, "I have to be afraid of some material first, and connect it with the photos after the game, so that it will be more comprehensive."
The colleague was a little disapproving, and laughed jokingly: "Then I advise you to take more pictures of BJ Green Light. What's the use of taking pictures of Hongcheng? I think they still lost today. No matter how good your report is, it's useless. Who would want to?" Follow a losing team?"
Hearing this, Yang Yangyang frowned, and said perfunctorily, "I know what to do, I will shoot BJ Green Light later." He is a die-hard fan of Hong Cheng. Although Hong Cheng lost the last game, he absolutely believes in Hong Cheng This game must be won.
Like Yang Yangyang, Wang Xianba also believed that Hongcheng could win because he had been watching Li Changgeng for a while.He found that today's Li Changgeng was obviously different from the last one, with a calm expression on his face, a smile on his mouth, very peaceful and confident.
Seeing this, Wang Xianba was so happy that he almost slapped the table, and said excitedly, "Yes, that's it, this is Li Changgeng!"
The game is about to start.
Everyone in Hongcheng gathered around Tao Ran. Tao Ran spread out the tactical board and arranged it for everyone.
In fact, there is nothing to arrange, the tactics are all arranged, and some things that need to be paid attention to Tao Ran told everyone last night, and now he is just telling everyone again, and then he is to cheer everyone up and ask everyone to kill BJ Green Light .
"Coach, don't worry, we will not let you down."
"Yes, we will definitely do our best."
Several people spoke one after another, and everyone's eyes were firm. They must win this match, even if it is desperate.
In the end, Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji, Nong Guang, Aaron, and Sima Shenji formed a circle, put their hands on top of each other, and shouted in unison: "We can only win but not lose!"
Not far away, the people from BJ Luguang frowned when they heard the voice here. They keenly felt that Hongcheng's aura was different from the last one.
"beep"
The whistle blows, jump ball.
"Mine." Nong Guang yelled, jumped up quickly, managed to touch the ball before Jiang Junye, and tipped the ball to Sima Shenji.
"Beautiful job." Sima Shenji praised, stabilized the ball, and pushed it forward slowly.
After crossing the center line, Sima Shenji was not in a hurry, he controlled the ball steadily, and made a gesture with one hand, and the people in Hongcheng began to run quickly.
When Aaron mentioned going up the line, he set a screen for Li Changgeng. Li Changgeng ran out of space, and Sima Shenji quickly passed the ball. When he took the ball, he accelerated and rushed to the inside line. After attracting Jiang Junye's attention, he made a pass from behind. The ball was given to Nong Guang. With a grin, Nong Guang jumped up and dunked with both hands.
2: 0.
BJ Green Light attacked, and Qiao San handed the ball to Li Tianming after halftime. Li Tianming took advantage of his teammate's pick-and-roll to step back and make a shot.
The goal is scored, 2:2 draw.
Turning around, Li Changgeng took the ball, first made a breakthrough movement, then suddenly changed direction, took a step back, and retreated beyond the three-point line, pulled up and shot.
"Shh!"
Hollow, three points are effective.
The ball was clean and neat, and it was very beautiful. Wang Xianba couldn't help giving a thumbs up after seeing it, and he had more confidence in Hongcheng.
"This Li Changgeng, why is it different from the last match?" Li Tianming thought to himself, his brows furrowed, he felt a huge pressure, this kind of pressure was something he didn't feel on Li Changgeng in the last match , which he had never felt before.
On the sidelines, a smile finally appeared on Tao Ran's face. When he saw the ball, he knew that the former Li Changgeng had really returned.Not only that, after experiencing this incident, Tao Ran felt that Li Changgeng was a little different, as if his mood had changed.
With a "snap", Ye Wenqi's layup was slapped down by Nong Guang, the ball rolled to the outside line, and Sima Shenji took it into his arms. He looked ahead, his eyes lit up, and he pushed hard with both hands , passed the ball flat and straight to Li Changgeng, Li Changgeng took the ball and rushed forward quickly.
Li Tianming followed Li Changgeng closely, sticking close to him and entering the three-point line, while Qiao San was already standing in the penalty area, waiting for Li Changgeng to come over.
At this time, Li Changgeng made an unexpected move.
I saw that he was sandwiched between Li Tianming and Qiao San, but he threw the ball towards the backboard suddenly. He didn't aim at the basket at all, and he didn't even look at the rim. Hit the backboard and bounced back.
"Rebound!" Li Tianming shouted.
"Be careful." Qiao San didn't care about the rebound, but exclaimed.
A figure flashed past, flew up from behind, jumped very high, with both feet away from the ground, and the whole person swept a certain distance in the air, with both hands held high, pressing down on Li Tianming to catch the rebounding basketball, and raising both hands , Slammed down hard at the basket.
"Bang!"
"Wow"
The sound of the ball being fastened to the basket and the uproar sounded almost at the same time. The tens of thousands of spectators were all shocked, and many people even stood up.
"My God, it turned out to be a combination of hitting the board and making up the buckle. That guy jumped so high!" A crowd in the audience couldn't help but exclaimed.
In an instant, the sound of gasping came and went, and everyone was immersed in the shock, shocked by the tacit cooperation of the ball and the splendor of the dunk.
Li Tianming was knocked staggered and fell to the ground. He just got up now, his face was gloomy and terrible. Instead of looking at Sima Shenji, he stared at Li Changgeng, as if he wanted to eat someone: "What a Li. Chang Geng, I really underestimated you, just wait for me."
At 20:18, Hongcheng led by two points, and at this time, 37 minutes and [-] seconds had passed in the first quarter.
BJ Greenlight attacked, Qiao San controlled the ball and passed the center line, Li Tianming ran to the three-point line to ask for the ball, after receiving the ball, he feinted, then accelerated, and broke through from the left hand side, Li Changgeng was close to Li Tianming, but Li Tianming Tianming paused, slammed on the brakes, and stopped for a jump shot.
"Shh!"
The goal was scored, 20:20.
Li Tianming pointed at Li Changgeng arrogantly, then hooked his fingers, and mouthed to Li Changgeng: "If you have the ability, hit me alone, come on!"
"I will." Li Changgeng secretly said in his heart, but his face was unmoved, just a faint smile.
Sima Shenji quickly crossed the halfway line. Li Changgeng didn't go up to ask for the ball, but just wandered outside the three-point line. Li Tianming was very disdainful, and sneered, "Why, you even challenged me one-on-one. Don't you have the courage? It seems that you are just a coward."
"Why should I fight you one-on-one?" Li Changgeng grinned, moved suddenly, his shoulders shook twice, and he accelerated.
Li Tianming groaned inwardly, and even chased after Li Changgeng, but just after he caught up with Li Changgeng, he saw Li Changgeng suddenly turn around 360 degrees, go around him, then step on the three-point line with both feet, catch the ball, Without stopping at all, he took the ball and shot directly.
Li Tianming's eyelids twitched at that speed of attack, feeling extremely helpless.
"Shh!"
Go in, three points.
At 23:20, Hongcheng took the lead again.
However, BJ Greenlight soon tied the score. At the ninth minute and 21 seconds of the first quarter, Jiang Junye attracted a double-team and quickly split the ball. Ye Wenqi made an air cut, caught the ball and scored a layup, tying the score.
The two sides battled to 26:26.
At this time, with 39 seconds left before the end of the first quarter, Hongcheng attacked. Sima Shenji took the ball, broke through, and went inside. To a person in the left bottom corner, a big number 24 on the jersey.
"Li Changgeng." Sima Shenji threw it vigorously.
The ball bounced on the floor and landed in Li Changgeng's hands. Li Changgeng made some adjustments, bent his knees and jumped up. Li Tianming flew forward, his hands already sealed to his face.
"Shh!"
Still in!
It was another three-pointer, and the score was opened again. At 29:26, Hongcheng took the lead.
"Good shot!" Wang Xianba clapped his hands and laughed happily.
Beside, Huang Jingao looked dignified, glanced at the scoreboard, and sighed: "What a cold-blooded killer, two consecutive three-pointers, each of which is when the score is tied, each time is very important, BJ Greenlight It was a big blow to BJ Luguang." He looked at Wang Xianba and said, "Old Wang, I admit that I was wrong earlier, this Li Changgeng is really great."
"Hehe, what did I say, you know I didn't lie to you." Wang Xianba said with a smile, the more he looked at Li Changgeng, the more pleasing he was.
In the last 20 seconds, BJ Greenlight missed the buzzer. At the end of the first quarter, Hongcheng temporarily led by 29 points at 26:3.
In the auditorium, tens of thousands of spectators felt strange in their hearts at this moment. Before that, who would have expected that Hong Cheng would take the lead?
"Haha, you guys played very well, take a rest first." Tao Ran said with a smile, and began to arrange tactics for the rotation lineup.
In the second quarter, Hongcheng and BJ Greenlight both changed their rotation.
This time, like the previous game, Hongcheng's rotation was still at a disadvantage, the lead was quickly lost, and the score was overtaken by the opponent.
However, Hongcheng played very tenaciously and fiercely. Although they couldn't restrain themselves from falling behind, they couldn't widen the point difference by much.
By the 6th minute of the second quarter, Hongcheng was 37 points behind at 41:4.
At this time, Tao Ran decisively replaced Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, let Sima Shenji pass the ball for Li Changgeng, and Li Changgeng was in charge of the offense.
Seeing Li Changgeng, BJ Luguang also sent Li Tianming, the duel between the two super shooting guards can be said to be non-stop.
Hongcheng attacked, Li Changgeng took the ball, accelerated, changed direction, jumped, and a series of movements were flowing like clouds and flowing water. Not only did he get rid of Li Tianming, but he also passed BJ Greenlight's substitute center Xu Fengmang, facing the basket that was very close at hand. , scored an easy layup.
39: 41.
Li Tianming made a breakthrough but failed to succeed. He quickly split the ball. His teammate made a shot one step inside the three-point line. The ball bounced out of the frame and Lu Feng grabbed the rebound.
The ball quickly passed to the frontcourt. Li Changgeng took the ball, turned around and leaned back after an acceleration, the parabola was very high, passed Li Tianming's fingertips, and flew into the basket.
"Shh!"
41:41, tied!
If in the first quarter Li Changgeng played a cold-blooded killer who always stabbed you at critical moments, then now Li Changgeng has become a bloody butcher. Just to score, can you stop it?
Hongcheng's tactics are very clear, Li Changgeng will attack, and he will decide whether to play singles or pass the ball.
This tactical task assignment is clear, and can maximize Li Changgeng's role, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, as long as Li Changgeng is restricted, then Hongcheng's offense will come to a stalemate, and the entire team will become stagnant as a result. stand up.
For this point, BJ Greenlight went up to the coach Wu Yanzu, down to the players, and even many spectators in the audience can see it.
But the problem is that BJ Greenlight can't restrain Li Changgeng at all. He has superb personal ability, he is not afraid of anyone one-on-one, and he has a good passing skill. Get the ball to the right person.
Therefore, from the moment Li Changgeng came on the stage, BJ Greenlight could no longer take advantage, and the score continued to be stalemate. Sometimes you lead, and sometimes I lead.
"Shh!"
Li Changgeng made a breakthrough with the ball and scored a very difficult pull-up layup. The score became 51:51, and there were 7 seconds left in the second quarter.
Seven seconds later, BJ Green Light attacked, and the ball quickly reached Li Tianming's hands. Seeing that the time was running out, he took a step back and forced a shot from outside the three-point line.
The ball didn't go in!
"beep"
At the end of the first half, the two teams tied.
"Good job, let's rest for a while, you may be required to play in the third quarter." Tao Ran said to Li Changgeng with a smile.
"En." Li Changgeng nodded, and sat down beside Sima Shenji.
The score was tied, and at the end of the first half, no one seemed to be able to take advantage, but everyone in Hongcheng knew that the score would be drawn again in the third quarter, because Hongcheng's background could not be compared with the opponent's, and the rotation lineup Playing will definitely be suppressed by the opponent.
After a while, the game started.
Lu Feng, Nong Guang, Luo Tian, A Mu, and Long Xiaotian entered the stage. Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji and others stood up one after another and gave them high fives one by one.
"Don't worry, although we can't guarantee that the score will not be overtaken, I can guarantee that the score difference will never exceed 10 points." Lu Feng grinned, but his tone was very serious. There is an unyielding fighting spirit.
"We will not let you down, don't forget, we are also a member of the team." Nong Guang also said with a chilling expression.
The third quarter begins.
From the first minute, Hongcheng showed an extremely fierce style of play, every defense was extremely active, and every fight was extremely desperate. This kind of toughness made BJ Greenlight very uncomfortable, so that He made repeated mistakes.
However, Hongcheng also failed to seize the opportunity, and only a small half of the opponent's mistakes were converted into counterattack points.
Even so, it is enough!
BJ Luguang attacked, the ball hit the inside lane, BJ Luguang's substitute center flew up, intending to make a dunk, but unexpectedly, a person next to him also jumped up quickly, waved his arm fiercely, and slapped him on the hand , Pulling the ball down directly.
"beep"
The whistle sounded and the referee gave Lu Feng a foul.
BJ Greenlight stepped up to the free throw line as a substitute center, and subconsciously glanced at Lu Feng. Seeing the fierce light in Lu Feng's eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt chills all over his body. No points scored.
Hongcheng's defense is too fierce. Although they are a bit weak in offense, this kind of desperate defense alone makes BJ Luguang feel overwhelmed.
A few minutes passed, and both sides only scored a few points, and the point difference was only widened by two points, which was a bit unexpected.
Seeing this, Wu Yanzu called a timeout and rearranged the arrangement.
When he returned to the court, BJ Greenlight enhanced his outside projection and gradually widened the point difference, but the speed of this widening was not fast, and the point difference has not been large.
By the end of the third quarter, Tao Ran didn't send Li Changgeng on the field, because there was no need for that, and the point difference was only 7 points.
Coming down from the field, Lu Feng and the others received the warmest cheers from everyone in Hongcheng.
Several people were drenched in sweat, and Lu Feng and Nong Guang, who fought the most fiercely, even turned pale. They grinned silly and were very happy, because they finally made contributions to the team with their own efforts, and finally proved that The value of your own existence!
"You guys take a break." Tao Ran was also very relieved, his eyes were moist, he turned to Li Changgeng and the others and said, "Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji, Nong Guang, Aaron, Sima Shenji, you will play the fourth quarter later You must win, don't let down Lu Feng's efforts."
"Yes." Several people agreed, looked at each other, and said in unison: "Definitely, must, must win!"
When the fourth quarter started, the tens of thousands of spectators in the auditorium all became nervous, sitting upright, staring at the court intently.
Next to the technical platform, Wang Xianba said in a deep voice, "It's time for the bayonet to see its red light!"
"Yes." Huang Jingao also nodded and said, "Shuangxing vs. BJ Shuangjun, this episode will definitely be exciting, look forward to it!" He has done enough homework, even knows the nicknames of Shuangxing and BJ Shuangjun.
On the court, BJ Green Light attacked, Qiao San quickly crossed the center line, signaled his teammates to come up for the pick-and-roll, and then made a breakthrough and gave it to Chen Qidong, who made a jumper.
At 63:72, Hongcheng fell behind by 9 points.
"The ball." Li Changgeng Liu Kai asked for the ball with both hands, Sima Shenji quickly passed it to him, Li Tianming quickly stuck it up, Liu Kai with one hand, and Li Changgeng's waist with the other.
This kind of defense will make the attacker very uncomfortable. If the waist is stuck, it will be difficult to burst out with strength. At the same time, if two people are in contact, once there is any movement, the defender can react quickly.
However, this was nothing to Li Changgeng.
He backed up abruptly, then changed direction, with a large range and fast speed, and instantly escaped from Li Tianming's defensive range, accelerated, and killed him.
"Damn it!" Li Tianming chased after him.
It's a pity, once Li Changgeng's speed increases, how can he catch up, I saw Li Changgeng quickly rushed to the basket, made a reverse basket, and scored easily.
65: 72.
Li Tianming couldn't guard Li Changgeng, and Chen Qidong couldn't guard Sima Shenji either. Soon Sima Shenji hit a three-pointer and assisted Nong Guang to score one. The difference between the two sides quickly narrowed. Unknowingly, The score has become 70:74, and Hongcheng is only 4 points behind.
Wu Yanzu even called a timeout, trying to curb Hongcheng's momentum of chasing points.
But when the timeout ended, Hongcheng's momentum was not contained, but became more and more fierce. First, Li Changgeng made a three-pointer, and then Sima Shenji made a jump shot. A wave of 7:2 overtook the score.
77:76, Hongcheng leads by one point.
However, BJ Greenlight is the defending champion after all. Even though the pressure was very high at this time, everyone still played very patiently. Tianming made a shot at the buzzer to overtake the score.
This is the role of the core players. They can always stand up at critical moments, score vital goals, and stabilize the situation.
