The genius of the basketball madman is on the left

In the basketball gymnasium of Stuyvesant Middle School, just 2 minutes into the game, the coach of Horaceman on the opposite side hastily called a timeout.

Six breakthrough dunks scored 6 points in a row, and their score was a poor 12 points, or their defender got it through free throws. If this continues, they will become the 2th team to be torn apart by the left.

As some of the best private schools in New York, Horaceman can be said to be Stuyvesant's old rivals. They are all models of good sports. , Eldest brother, don't laugh at second elder brother, it's all about losing more and winning less.

But this season is different. Stuyvesant has become a phoenix and is thriving in the second-tier league. Since the 90s, they are the first high school team in New York to win 16 consecutive victories, but Horaceman has 8 wins and 8 wins. Lost, the winning percentage is just over half, and they are ranked 7th, which makes them very unbalanced.

Before this game, their head coach watched the Stuyvesant Middle School game video for 3 consecutive days, and finally came to a conclusion that as long as Zuo Li was restricted, then they would be useless!

It can be seen that the level of coaches in this high school is average. You have to watch the video for so long, and you still can't see it from the data?

But they are still good. They made a defensive plan for Zuo Li, because they found that although Zuo Li played the 5th position, he only stood inside when he was defending. Qiangtu accounted for more than 80% of his scoring, very few mid-ranges, almost no three-pointers, and average free throws, which made them believe that as long as Zuo Li couldn't stand up, they could win!

"We want to watch their No. 0, that Asian guy. He brought up all their rhythms. As long as we watch him, we have a chance to win! He can only break through, let him shoot, and we will go three Shrink the line, don't be afraid, victory belongs to us!"

During the timeout, the coach once again emphasized this defense, but their guards who were in charge of defending the left stand were about to roll their eyes to the sky.

That's right, in order to target Zuo Li, they changed the center forward's choice of other teams, but let the shortest but fastest and best defensive defender in the team mark Zuo Li.

Tsk, how should I put it, as expected of Fengchu, ignoring the 30cm height difference and forcibly defending, I can only say that the idea is good.

This old man really wants to say... I really can't stand Zuo Li, but seeing the coach's face flushed with passion, he thinks it's better not to touch this bad luck.

Bite the bullet and continue on, this time his speed really kept up with Zuo Li, but Zuo Li directly made a pick-and-roll. Yes, at Stuyvesant, Curry is the best candidate for Zuo Li's pick-and-roll. Because of his one-handed three-pointer, this is a tactic that Hibbert spent several months tailor-made for the two!

This effect...

Break through and score the ball!

Curry shot the ball as soon as he caught it, and the basketball was hit with precision.

The defender smiled helplessly, spread his hands, don't blame me this time...

"Hey, people really can't do it." Halsman's coach had no choice but to put his hips on his hips, lamenting why he was born at the wrong time, and why there is no one under him who can fully play out his tactics.

Well, how to put it, I can only say that there is a reason why he can only be a coach in this kind of school. Of course, Zuo Li hopes that there will be more opponents like this, the better!

With a gap of 29 points in the half, the team led by Zuo Li had completely taken advantage. Zhang Jie, a Chinese woman who had just sat on the principal's seat on the sidelines, applauded happily, and turned to look at Harry: "Your decision is right, a successful The signings are enough to change the image of our entire school."

"Hahaha, that's the principal of course, Zuo Li is a real genius, that guy is already invincible on the street."

"Then do we have a chance to win the championship this season?" Zhang Jie asked. If we can win the championship, then Stuyvesant will truly achieve both style and style, and the government subsidies... ahem.

"Of course, I believe that we will have a chance to win the Asian championship in June next year!" Harry did not hesitate. This is definitely not an empty talk. After watching the games for half a season, Harry is full of confidence in this team , at least in the second-tier league, they have no opponents.

...

At the end of the game, Stuyvesant did not have any suspense. He defeated his opponent 89-56, won 17 consecutive victories, completed the first round of all opponents, and also created the best record in team history.

左立这场再一次拿到38分15篮板6封盖的大号两双，而库里也打出了27分8助攻的数据，双核的威力越发显现了。

"Hey, Zuo Li, we can win the championship this year and go to the first-level league." After the game, Curry ran over excitedly and said to Zuo Li, 17 consecutive victories, half of which made him very excited. matter.

"Be confident, not just to win the championship, we want to win all!" Zuo Li waved his big hand. He didn't dare to say this before, but now, after all the opponents have played against each other, he is full of confidence. In this era of New York colleges and universities, No one is his match.

He finally realized how those big killers played in high school.

Curry was a little unconvinced, and such things as unanimous victory usually only appeared in schools like Oak Hill High School, but as Christmas passed, and one game after another, Curry suddenly discovered that winning the championship seemed to be true. It's coming!

At the beginning of the new year in 2004, the Stuyvesant High School basketball team ushered in the first game of the year again.

Before the game, Curry played a three-point shooting in the midfield, and he also pulled the left stand together. This project is one of the few projects where he can win the left stand, but he has never played so coquettishly in public before the game.

But this time, Curry was obviously more confident, which surprised Hibbert a little. The biggest problem with Curry is that he is not confident. Now he is not the MVP of later generations. Few people have looked up to him since he was a child. So even though he has played well in the past six months, his confidence is still lacking.

Hibbert even pulled Zuo Li to question him, why did he change so much after a year.

"Maybe, it has something to do with Christmas." Zuo Li shrugged, indicating that it's not a big deal.

Curry chose to stay here for Christmas training with Zuo Li, and Jerry, who had just participated in the AND1 Tournament, finally came back to reunite with Zuo Li. A western restaurant in Manhattan has a reservation.

Not only is the cat and mouse duo who came out of the slums, even Curry has no experience of dining in such a high-end restaurant, so the three of them are a bit cautious, and the eyes of the people around them are naturally full of contempt, so they almost say Out.

Of course, I dare not come up to provoke. Even Curry, who looks thin on the court, is a strong man here, let alone the other three. Although Zuo Li still hasn't gained much weight, his height is here.

Moreover, Zuo Li, who is wearing a simple ball uniform, has not changed his mood. He is still eating beef calmly. People who despise others don't need to mind, eating in such a restaurant can give him a sense of superiority, it can only be said that his level is just like this, of course, if he wants to pretend to be aggressive, it is not impossible for Zuo Li to give him a Small lesson, but, no chance, a bit of a pity.

Seeing the restraint of the three, Zuo Li stopped the knife and fork: "Brothers, believe me, this kind of life will be our normal in the future, or even better, look at those people in suits and ties, sooner or later, they will have to Give us a job!"

Zuo Li's words made a girl sitting behind Zuo Li and the others show a bright smile, and when Zuo Li and the others finished eating and left, she said to the graceful woman beside her, "Auntie, I want to transfer school!"

At that time, Zuo Li's domineering exposure brought the cat and mouse duo back to normal. They suddenly remembered that Zuo Li told them so many years ago. A few years later, they came to Manhattan from a roadside stand in Harlem. restaurant, I believe this time, Zuo Li will still not lie.

And Curry was even more shocked, good guy, this is too confident, this is Manhattan!

But then comes self-confidence. Curry is not an ordinary person, and he immediately reflected on his life.

"Perhaps what I lack is Zuo Li's self-confidence." After eating the beef on the plate with big mouthfuls, Curry vowed that he would become more confident.

So, Curry, who found confidence, scored the first 30 points of his high school career. He used his performance to make the opponent's coach give him a thumbs up.

And Zuo Li also scored 20 points, 18 rebounds and 11 assists, and achieved the first triple-double in his career. This is also the consequence of Zuo Li's intention to increase his passing. It's all worth it.

How terrifying it is to find the confident Curry and the full-fire Zuo Li, and their opponents have the most say.

In the penultimate regular game of this season, Stuyvesant swept 110-56 and created the biggest loss. Go to college early, this is not their game anymore."

这场比赛左立拿到51分20篮板的超级两双并完成15次扣篮创造多达35项校队记录以及11项纽约高中纪录，库里33分8助攻4强度，单场投进了10个三分同样创造纪录。

And Stuyvesant has won a terrifying 33 consecutive victories and remains unbeaten.

"Maybe we will witness the first undefeated high school team in New York State in a single season in 20 years." After the game, the New York Sports News used a small piece of ink to describe Stuyvesant's brave performance this season.

But this time, Stuyvesant did not disappoint others, and neither did Zuo Li. In the last game, facing Brearley's tenacious blocking and Curry's inaccurate touch, Zuo Li scored 39 points in 53 minutes. The super data of 19 rebounds and 9 blocks destroyed the opponent's defense with breakthroughs again and again.

90-81, Stuyvesant completed the 34-game unbeaten feat of the season!

After the game, Curry flew on Zuo Li, Hibbert slid and kneeled directly on the court, and the 210 chubby Bob almost knocked over the cheerleaders with his excited dive.

The whole Stuyvesant was celebrating them.

As a matter of course, Zuo Li was selected as the best player and the best team of the second-level league. After the game, Zuo Li even raised the trophy directly.

It has to be said that the New York media is still strong. There are quite a few media coming to this level of competition, and Zuo Lian once again said to the media: "This is just the beginning, so I won't talk about the acceptance speech. After a week, Let's talk about it at the championship ceremony!"

"Zuo Li is so handsome!"

"Ah, look at me from Zuo Li, I want to fall in love with you!"

Zuo Li: "..." Good guy, this is an away game, please pay attention to your team's mood, although Stuyvesant's female schoolmasters are almost reacting like this now...

The game had a huge impact throughout the New York basketball world. ESPN even reported Stuyvesant's game for the first time. They described Zuo Li: "We haven't seen a guy who can play like this in 40 years."

However, it is still limited to New York, after all, it is only a second-tier league, but when Zuo Li led the team to easily defeat the opponent and entered the finals, finally someone began to recall what Zuo Li said a year ago.

"Give me two years, and I will show you the answer."

Now the first year has quietly passed, and the answer given by Zuo Li...

In the final of the second-tier league, their opponent was Brearley. This is also the team with the fewest losses against them this season. The main guard Harrison is an excellent defender in the second-tier league. He can score, organize and defend. The most important thing is , He is 182 cm tall, but weighs 198 catties. With him, Curry is always restricted.

This time was no exception. Under his interference, Curry missed all his first 6 shots, and Stuyvesant also trailed by 4 points at halftime for the first time.

In the second half, just when everyone felt that something was going to happen and that Stuyvesant was about to overturn, Zuo Li stood up.

He scored 21 points in the first half, which was quite satisfactory, but in the second half, he misplaced and singled Harrison, turned around and made a strong 2+1.

Subsequently, he blocked Harlinson in defense and assisted Bob to complete the score, tying the score in one fell swoop.

Zuo Li's performance continued. On the defensive end, he moved spiritually, stretched his long arms to complete the steal, and fast-breaked to complete the dunk.

After the timeout, Zuo Li broke through again and caused a kill. Although he only made 2 of 1 free throws, he made Harrison, the top player on the opposite side, foul 4 times. It was not far from graduation, and the opponent had to replace Harrison.

But Zuo Li didn't stop there. He handed over the dribble to Curry, and went to the inside to ask for the ball with his back, just to bully the opponent's insider who was not tall.

bang bang bang!

After 3 consecutive dunks, Zuo Li led the team to a 12-0 shock wave to establish the victory in one fell swoop!

In the last quarter, Zuo Li even completed the feat of one-on-five in the audience. From the defender to the center, Zuo Li didn't let go of a single player, and finally completed the operation of hitting the board and throwing and dunking.

"Zuo Li, it's time to hold his trophy!" The uncle in charge of the commentary was so excited that he couldn't hold the microphone steadily.

Winning the championship undefeated, this is winning the championship undefeated, how long has this happened in New York!

In the end, Stuyvesant High School defeated the opponent by 90-80 with a 10-point advantage, achieved a feat of 36 wins and 0 losses in the season, and finally completed the undefeated championship!

At the same time, they also successfully entered the New York State Division I!
