King of shooting guards

Chapter 160 The speed of life and death (1)

Some people who come late can only sit in the back seats. The viewing angle is definitely not that good, but they also have a solution. Many people have brought binoculars, and they can clearly see the game on the field from the back, and they will not miss anything. Great piece.

Near the player's rest area, the director of Hongcheng and Mengyao led the cheerleaders holding a banner with the words "Hongcheng must win".

At this time, Mr. Director was sweating on his forehead, not because of the heat, but because of nervousness, and kept muttering in a low voice: "This game must be won, must be won, and if we lose, we will be finished. It’s hard to get to this stage, and we can’t stop there.”

Listening to the words of the director general, Mengyao chuckled and said comfortingly: "Director, don't worry, we will definitely win."

"I also believe that we will win." At this time, the director was not as calm as the head of a school, wiped the sweat from his head, and said with a wry smile: "But I am still nervous."

"I'm actually nervous too." Mengyao whispered, looking towards the player tunnel, her eyes lit up, "They're coming out."

At the same time, beside the technical table, Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba raised their eyebrows and looked towards the player tunnel together.

The Hongcheng team came one after another, with Tao Ran at the front, then Mengyao, Lu Feng, and finally Sima Shenji and Li Changgeng.

Everyone looked serious, head held high, and walked step by step.

"Good momentum!" Jin Jin gave a high praise, and said nonsense to Wang Xian, "Looking at Hongcheng's murderous aura today, it is inevitable for this game."

"Nonsense." Wang Xianba rolled his eyes and said, "This is the decisive game, whoever is replaced is not inevitable, is he determined to win the game? Don't talk about Hongcheng, BJ Luguang must be the same." His tone continued. Dun said with great anticipation: "Today's game must be good."

"Yeah." Huang Jingao nodded, "I don't know which side can win?"

Without even thinking about it, Wang Xianba said, "I hope it's Hongcheng." Hearing his words, Huang Jingao was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and sighed: "Yes, Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, two young He is really nice, it would be a pity if Hongcheng loses."

In fact, whether Hongcheng can win the championship has nothing to do with Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba, but it does matter if they contact the National Youth Team.

After watching these games, Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba admired Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji very much, and were very satisfied with their abilities. However, if Hongcheng failed to win the championship, it would definitely affect the basketball association's support. According to their perception, it is not easy to select them into the national youth team.

It is true to say that talent is the first priority in selecting materials for the country, but sometimes it is not so simple and pure in practice.

Just imagine, if BJ Luguang won the championship, but you selected Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji into the national youth team, what would others say, what would the media say?There will definitely be people who will raise doubts and dissatisfaction, asking why you should not enter the national youth team after winning the championship?
Therefore, both Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba hope that Hongcheng can win the championship, and it will be logical for them to choose Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji to join the National Youth Team.

After Hongcheng, it was BJ Green Light. When they came out, the audience suddenly heard enthusiastic cheers, which were deafening.

I saw every player in BJ Luguang also looked serious, with sharp eyes, and the murderous look and fighting spirit on his body could be seen at a glance.

After more than ten minutes of warm-up, the players of both sides returned to their respective sides, and the coaches of both sides also began to arrange tactics.

On Hongcheng's side, Tao Ran's expression was serious, and he said to the others: "It's Li Changgeng and you guys later, I want to emphasize one point, our tactic relies too much on you two, and the offensive burden is almost all on you, although you have That ability, but it is a test of your physical strength. Sima Shenji was physically exhausted at the end of the last game, and this is a wake-up call."

Tao Ran looked at Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji: "So today you two must control the distribution of physical strength, reduce breakthroughs, reduce dribbling, and make more use of pick-and-rolls and coordination to shoot outside." Long, Sima Shenji, and Nong Guang, "You need to run more and give Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji cover."

"Yes." The three of Nong Guang replied.

"Coach, we understand." Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji also nodded.

Tao Ran's expression softened a little, and he said to the others: "Remember, we have reached the edge of the cliff, we can only burn our boats, this game must be won!"

"Must win!" Everyone roared.

BJ Greenlight coach Wu Yanzu was also setting up tactics. After some advice to his opponents, the opening time came in a blink of an eye.

"beep"

The whistle sounded, players from both sides stepped onto the court and began to jump the ball.

Nong Guang gave the ball to Li Changgeng first, and Li Changgeng passed it to Sima Shenji, and he ran to the front court by himself. He had to follow Tao Ran's instructions and save his energy as much as possible.

The ball quickly reached the frontcourt. The Hongcheng people moved quickly. Everyone was very active. Today's game is already a desperate battle. They cannot lose, and they are not allowed to lose, so no matter who they are, they will do their best Play hard.

A reverse run throws away Li Tianming, Li Changgeng pulls beyond the three-point line, Sima Shenji also quickly passes the ball, Li Changgeng catches the ball and shoots directly.

"Shh!"

Hollow hit, three points!
"Brothers, give them back one." Jiang Junye yelled, and made a free throw from the bottom line. Qiao San took the ball and advanced it to the frontcourt, and handed it to Li Tianming with shaking hands. Ye Wenqi turned over and hit a jumper after taking the ball.

3: 2.

Hongcheng Attack
At this moment, countless people are watching the game, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hun province. Countless people are standing in front of the TV screen, staring at the TV without blinking, cheering for their favorite team, cheering for every wonderful team. Shout for the goal, cheers!

From the very beginning, Li Changgeng started to show his power. First he hit a three-pointer from the outside, and then he used the cover of his teammates to pull to the side and scored a jump shot.

In less than 1 minute, Li Changgeng's personal score has reached 5 points.

And then, Hongcheng also strictly implemented the tactics arranged by Tao Ran. Sima Shenji and Aaron covered the pick and roll for Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji as much as possible. Nong Guang sat inside and struggled for rebounds. Less breakthroughs, more outside shots.

This tactic is the most suitable for today's Hongcheng. Li Changgeng's hand feeling is also good today. After a few minutes in the first quarter, he has already scored 13 points. He made 5 of 3 three-pointers and two-pointers. 3 of 2 shots, the hit rate is as high as 60.00% [-].

In addition, Sima Shenji and Aaron also scored points. When the other party focused on Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, they always got a good chance.

And today they lived up to what they had forgotten. Sima Shenji hit a mid-range shot, and Aaron also scored a layup, scoring 2 points each.

However, Tao Ran's expression was not good at this time. He looked up at the scoreboard, and the bright red numbers were Hongcheng 19): BJ Greenlight 24), and they were already 5 points behind.

And the reason for this is because of Sima's magic.

Tao Ran looked at Sima Shenji on the field. Sima Shenji just picked up the ball and made an accelerated breakthrough against Chen Qidong's defense. He passed Chen Qidong with one step, and then stopped for a jump shot, but the ball bounced out of the frame.Sima Shenji's face was ugly, he waved his hand annoyedly, turned back to defend, his face was full of helplessness.

"Hey, he's worked so hard these past few days. If the schedule wasn't so tight, he definitely wouldn't be like this." Tao Ran looked back and sighed.

Sima Shenji was too tired these days, especially in the first game, Li Changgeng seemed to be sleepwalking, relying on him alone to support the entire team.He scored 40+ in that game, but the team still lost in the end. Perhaps few people know that it really hit Sima Shenji very hard.

But Sima Shenji was not depressed because of this, instead he stood up without hesitation and helped Li Changgeng regain his fighting spirit and state.

At this time, everyone saw that Li Changgeng returned with full blood and scored 40+ in two consecutive games, but no one saw that Sima Shenji, the captain, actually gave a lot.

When the team lost the first game, he shouldered all the pressure alone. When the team won the second game, he gave up the stage to Li Changgeng, silently contributing to the team.Losing again in the third game, he fought until he was exhausted, and when the final whistle sounded, he fell to the ground directly, his face extremely pale, and he was able to return to the locker room with the support of his teammates.

This is Sima Shenji, he is one of the two cores of Hongcheng, but he is also the captain of Hongcheng.

"I am the captain, anyone can be depressed, anyone can collapse, but I can't, I must persevere." Sima Shenji told himself this way, and he did the same, despite the huge pressure, despite the physical Tired, but he gritted his teeth and persisted, fighting bravely.

Perhaps, Tao Ran is the only coach who has seen this and Sima Shenji's difficulties, but Tao Ran can't dissuade him, because this is necessary and the team cannot fail, especially when the situation is not favorable for the team. The captain of the machine must be steady!

But Sima Shenji is also a human being, not made of iron. After three games, the mental pressure and physical exhaustion caused him to have problems after all. When he came up today, he felt nothing. He didn't even make three outside shots. , which surprised many people.

Then, Sima Shenji tried to break through, wanting to get closer to the basket, but for some reason, he never felt it, which made him very helpless.

With more than two minutes left in the first quarter, Tao Ran called a timeout.

Everyone came down from the field, Sima Shenji walked at the end, stood still in front of Tao Ran, and said guiltily: "Coach, I'm sorry."

"Don't say that, you have done well enough." Tao Ran patted Sima Shenji on the shoulder, and said in a gentle tone: "I know you have paid a lot for the team, and you have been under a lot of pressure all the time. Fight. It's okay, you're just too tired and working too hard."

Hearing these words, Sima Shenji's eyes suddenly became moist. The greatest understanding in the world is that someone sees and remembers his dedication.

"Take a break first and relax." Tao Ran said, "You feel nothing because of too much pressure and your body is too tired. You need to let go of your burden. You must know that you are not fighting alone. We are fighting alone." A team is a collective."

"En." Sima Shenji nodded, sat down quietly, and closed his eyes.Tears still flowed out, tears of happiness.

What Tao Ran and Sima Shenji said did not avoid Li Changgeng and others, so they all heard it, and finally realized the problem, and realized how much Sima Shenji had paid.

At this moment, everyone's expressions were very serious. A group of people looked at Tao Ran and only thought of one sentence, you are not fighting alone.

Yes, we are a group, and we are still here. Sima Shenji has carried it for so long, and now it is time for us to share it for him!

"Li Changgeng, Nong Guang, Aaron, Sima Shenji, and Nong Guang, you guys will come up later." Tao Ran looked at them.

"Yes." Several people nodded heavily.

The next step is to rearrange the tactics. If Sima's magic is not up to the mark, then the previous tactics need to be adjusted and changed to another style of play.

After Tao Ran made arrangements quickly, the timeout was over, and several players were ready to play, Tao Ran stopped Li Changgeng and said to him, "You are the core of the team, and Sima Shenji is not on the court now, so now you need to give the team Pick it up, do you understand?"

"Coach, don't worry." Li Changgeng replied with a firm tone.

"Yeah." Tao Ran finally smiled, "Go, I know you can do it, Sima Shenji and I are watching you from below."

Players from both sides entered the court, Hongcheng attacked, and Sima Shenji passed the ball to Li Changgeng. Li Changgeng took a look at the situation on the field. Obviously, because Sima Shenji was off the field, BJ Greenlight lacked an object to focus on. His defense It is even more rigorous.

Seeing this, Li Changgeng had already made a decision in his mind, first he made a fake shot, and then stepped out, very suddenly, passing Li Tianming in an instant.

Entering the inside line, Li Changgeng flew up, but it was not a layup, but a very concealed pass, and at the same time he shouted: "Nong Guang!"

"Drink." Nong Guang caught the ball, got up and dunked.

Seeing the ball, Tao Ran smiled, and Sima Shenji also opened his eyes, and with the corners of his mouth raised, he smiled and said to himself: "Brothers, come on! We must win this game, and we will definitely win. I am not alone. People are fighting and neither are you, we are a collective!"

Hongcheng 25: BJ Greenlight 28.

With 15 seconds left in the first quarter, Hongcheng had the ball. In the last attack, Li Changgeng took the ball and wandered outside, not in a hurry.

He didn't lower his center of gravity until there were 8 seconds left in the attack time, signaled his teammates to come up for the pick-and-roll, and then accelerated at a very fast speed, like a phantom.

A figure flashed, Ye Wenqi quickly switched defenses, Liu Kai stared at Li Changgeng with both hands.

In 6 seconds, Li Changgeng accelerated, turned around, passed Ye Wenqi, took three big steps, and jumped up facing Jiang Junye.

In 4 seconds, Jiang Junye jumped up, Li Changgeng raised his mouth, folded his body, stopped in the air, and passed the ball through the gap.

In 3 seconds, Sima Shenji received the ball. Qiao San reacted and rushed towards him quickly. However, there were several meters between the two of them. Sima Shenji was not worried at all. He slapped the ball on the ground and adjusted it a little. Jump up when the time rewinds to 2 seconds, and shoot.

"Shh!"

The ball goes in, hollow.

"Strike!" In the players' rest area, all the players in Hongcheng jumped up instantly.

Li Changgeng, Nong Guang, Aaron, and Nong Guang on the field also flew towards Sima Shenji, surrounded him and celebrated for his ball.

BJ Luguang's face is not very good-looking. He led by more than nine minutes, but in the last few seconds, the opponent made a three-pointer at the buzzer to tie the score. Doesn't this mean that the whole quarter's efforts were turned into Is there nothing? 28:28, although not behind, but they are still difficult to accept.

Seeing his players come down from the field with ugly faces, Wu Yanzu didn't care too much, and comforted them: "It's okay, it's just a tie, and we will open the score soon. Sit down and rest, Leave the second quarter to your teammates."

"Yes."

"Yeah." Several people nodded and relaxed.

That's right, it's just a tie, and the score will be drawn in the second quarter. Hongcheng's rotation is not as good as ours.

On Hongcheng's side, Li Changgeng and his teammates received a warm welcome from his teammates, especially Sima Shenji who made the final buzzer.

Even Tao Ran smiled and praised: "You played well this quarter, Li Changgeng, you did well, Sima Shenji did well, and I'm proud of you."

"Ha ha."

Amid the laughter, time passed quickly, and soon the second quarter began.

Both Hongcheng and BJ Greenlight have been sent to the rotation lineup, and now the score is tied, both Hongcheng and BJ Greenlight want the starters to rest first.

As in the past few times, although Hongcheng's rotation lineup worked very hard, it was to limit the opponent defensively. He couldn't score and his scoring ability was not strong. This was the fatal injury.

A few minutes passed, and the point difference was widened again, which made Tao Ran very helpless.

"Coach, why don't you replace me, I've adjusted it." Sima Shenji got up and said.

"Huh?" Tao Ran thought for a while, but still shook his head, "Forget it, now is not the time, both you and Li Changgeng have to play full in the fourth quarter, and you can't consume too much energy so early."

As time passed, the situation on the field became more and more unfavorable to Hongcheng, and the point difference became wider and wider.

By the end of the first half, the score had become 46:38, and Hongcheng was already 8 points behind the opponent before he knew it.

During the intermission, everyone in Hongcheng returned to the locker room.

The faces of Lu Feng and the others were a little ugly, thinking that they had failed to play well, resulting in so much behind in the score, so they all lowered their heads, not daring to look at their teammates.

"Okay, what are you doing with such a dejected look?" Tao Ran said angrily, "You will have to hold on to it in the third quarter later, and you just need to play it well, you know?"

"Yes."

"Coach, don't worry, we won't let the opponent score easily even if we try our best later." Several people said in succession, with murderous look in their eyes.

.......
At the beginning of the second half, the two sides still rotated.

This time, Lu Feng and the others did not disappoint Tao Ran. They fought fiercely, and their desperate efforts really scared the people of BJ Luguang. Lukewarm look.

With more than four minutes left in the third quarter, Wu Yanzu finally couldn't stand it anymore and replaced Li Tianming and Qiao San.

On Hongcheng's side, Tao Ran also replaced Sima Shenji. After resting for more than a quarter, Sima Shenji's state has been adjusted. He hit a three-pointer on the court, which made BJ Luguang's heart skip a beat, and all of them frowned. , that unstoppable Sima Shenji seems to be back again.

More than four minutes later, Sima Shenji changed his previous cold hands and suddenly broke out, scoring crazy points, as if he wanted to make up for what was lost in the first quarter.

On the side of BJ Green Light, Li Tianming and Qiao San were not to be outdone, they succeeded in succession and stabilized the score without giving Hongcheng a chance.

"beep"

At the end of the third quarter, Hongcheng 60: BJ Greenlight 72, still 12 points behind.

Entering the final quarter with a 12-point lead, BJ Luguang didn't dare to be careless, because Sima Shenji recovered, and there was Li Changgeng. This 12-point advantage is not foolproof. If you are careless, It may be reversed by the opponent.

Therefore, Wu Yanzu summoned the first five tigers before him, and urged him to be careful with Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, and absolutely not to be careless.

On Hongcheng's side, Tao Ran also encouraged everyone, and then told Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji to shoot more from the outside, save energy, and shoot as many three-pointers as possible, so as to catch up with the score.At the same time, he also told Nong Guang to work hard inside and try to restrain Jiang Junye.

In the auditorium, tens of thousands of spectators tensed up.

Finally, the whistle sounded, and the fourth quarter began. Players from both sides entered the court, and BJ Green Light served and launched an attack.

Li Tianming leaned on Li Changgeng, played singles with his back, dribbled the ball with one hand, and squeezed hard to the inside at the same time. At the same time, he watched the situation around him. Squeezed a bit and turned around abruptly.

"Snapped!"

With a soft sound, Li Tianming suddenly felt a light on his hand, his heart thumped, and he was intercepted by someone.

Turning around and looking, Li Changgeng has already grabbed the basketball and flew away like a fly. His speed is very fast, and this time is very sudden. No one on BJ Luguang's side can keep up. They can only watch him pass the halfway line. He rushed to the free throw line quickly, received the ball suddenly, bent his knees, kicked his legs on the ground, and rose from the ground with a rub.

At this moment, everyone felt shocked. Li Changgeng seemed to have escaped gravity, bent his legs in the air, and sent the basketball down with his left hand.

"Oh my God!"

There was an exclamation, and there was a gasp.

Soaring in the air, Li Changgeng unexpectedly changed hands between his crotch, his whole body seemed to be still, the ball changed from his left hand to his right hand, and then he spread his body and raised his right hand.

"Bang!"

There was a loud bang, and the audience was silent, only the groans of the basket being pulled out of shape reverberated, which made everyone's heart tremble.

Falling from the basket, Li Changgeng had a stern expression on his face. Looking around at the people in BJ Luguang, the cold eyes made everyone in BJ Luguang feel chills.
