Chapter 61 The Finals (2)

At the beginning of the second quarter, Coach Xiangfeng replaced all the main players except Ahu to let Zhang Yu rest.The substitute played well and did not let the opponent open the score. After 3 minutes, Coach Xiangfeng waved his hand.There was a big rotation on the field, Zhang Yu and several main players were all on the field, and Li Yifan also appeared on the field again, and he was still replaced by Ahu.

Li Yifan took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and took the ball through halftime. The players kept running around, and he didn't raise his eyes, as if he was just staring at his hands. There was no ball in his hands.
The ball was already in Zhang Yu's hands. He just ran to the basket and the ball arrived. Of course, he would not waste such a good opportunity. Unmarked, he punched the basket vigorously with both hands, and let out a bad breath.

He let out a happy cry and ran back to the backcourt to defend and clapped hands with Li Yifan to celebrate.

The audience also applauded to encourage this game, after all, dunks are not common in middle school basketball.

Director Jiang's commentary also began to get excited: "This is the first dunk of the game. Jiang Chengyi made a beautiful pass. This ball has greatly boosted the morale of the team. This is a good start. I hope both players can compete." The style and the level. In my opinion, the two sides have played very well so far...Baizhou High School missed a shot, and Jiangcheng No. 5 Middle School protected the backcourt rebound very well...The ball was handed over to over Opponent. It's already halftime... shot... shot just after halftime... the ball scored a beautiful three-pointer. What a beautiful goal! I hit Baizhou High School by surprise, and now the score is moved all at once It's flat... Baizhou High School's coach is very experienced and called a timeout. There are still [-] minutes before the end of the second quarter..."

Li Yifan and the others sat on stools drinking water and waited for Coach Xiangfeng to make tactical arrangements.

"Don't look at me! You can play according to the method just now, there is no problem. Remember that the court is your own, and you have to learn to be flexible."

"Yes!" Everyone answered firmly.

After the restart, Baizhou High School failed to recover from the decline, and Jiangcheng No. [-] Middle School played handily.

"Jiangcheng No. [-] Middle School broke through to the basketball and entered the referee's whistle. Did the referee blow a foul?...Oh no, it's the end of the first half. This is a buzzer. This is called..." Director Jiang wanted to turn to Li Want to remind: "Li Yifan."

"Yes! This person is called Li Yifan." Li Xiang replied.

"Yes! You scored 15 points!" Director Jiang nodded.

His words caught Coach Feng's attention, and Coach Feng stretched his waist, pulled his feet out from under the stool, and dodged Li Yifan's data.

"Hmm! There were such statistics in the first half, not bad!"

....
Back in the locker room, everyone was in a good mood, laughing and joking.

Coach Xiangfeng greeted the players to rest, arranged tactics, and finally began to cheer for the players: "In the first half, everyone played well and had a good shooting percentage, but the second half will definitely be more difficult. Everyone should be prepared for a hard fight. Slacking off, centipedes are dead but not stiff, they will do the last game, so the most important thing is to do a good job of defense and rebound control. Zhang Yu is up to you, Tong Haifeng and you guys also need to do a good job of helping to defend and block. "

"Are we going to win?" he finally asked.

"Victory!" Everyone shouted loudly, everyone's heart and even the whole dressing thing was full of fighting spirit.

At the beginning of the second half, the two sides rearranged the starting lineup at the beginning of the game and Li Yifan returned to the bench.

"Rebound." A huge figure emerged from the basket amidst coach Xiangfeng's yelling, and when the ball was about to reach Shen Jiaqi's hands, it was Zhang Yu who took the ball away.

"This little guy is not bad!" Apparently, Jiang Cheng made Coach Feng a little bit interested, so he decided to watch more of this game.

Originally, he came here just to be bored. He was on vacation with his lover, but he found that there was nothing wrong with him. He suddenly found out that there was a game here, so he simply came to play. He never expected that such a good player could be found, so he thought Face secretly observed.

"Fast break" he roared and threw the ball to Ahu who was going down fast, and Ahudu reached the basket in a few quick steps.A layup, the fans suddenly cheered at this time, the crisis flashed in Ah Hu's heart and before he could react, the ball just shot was blocked by a big hand.

"What? So fast?" Ah Hu was amazed in his heart, and looked back at Yue Qun. Yue Qun had already counterattacked and returned to the basket at this moment, but it was a pity that Zhang Yu blocked the layup again.

The score on the scoreboard has not moved for a few minutes, and the two sides have not hit a high percentage during this period, and are in a stalemate.

Coach Xiangfeng called a timeout.He turned his head and asked Li Yifan: "What do you think of the current situation on the field?"

Li Yifan stared at the field, took a few glances, and said solemnly: "The opponent is attacking very fiercely now, but under our strict defense, the hit rate is not very high, and the physical strength also dropped quickly. And exhausted. If they can't attack for a long time, they will definitely be frustrated. As long as we can score consecutively now, we can completely knock down their morale."

Coach Xiangfeng nodded slightly and asked the players around him, "Did you hear clearly?"

"Listen clearly."

"Then attack and beat them completely."

"Ok."

"Enter Li Yifan."

"Yes!"

At this time, the third quarter has scored four points.

Director Jiang looked at the situation above and said to Li Xiang: "The game is now the most critical time. Jiangcheng No. [-] Middle School sent Li Yifan. It seems that they want to use him as a breakthrough point?"

Li Xiang shook his head: "I don't know! What does Coach Feng think?"

"If my guess is correct, then Baizhou will be struck by lightning like a torrential rain." Coach Feng was full of confidence.

Li Yifan pulled the ball back with a feint, and knocked down the defender a few times. He rushed into the center of the opponent and made up for it with his hands raised high to stop the breakthrough line. Li Yifan couldn't help but secretly nodded.

However, he did not continue to hit the opponent's center. During the run, a throwing ball crossed an arc and just passed the opponent's raised hands, and a yellow shadow under the basket jumped up to catch the ball.A sideways slams the ball hard into the hoop.It's Zhang Yu.

"It's wonderful, it's really wonderful." Director Jiang's tone was a little excited and he couldn't control it. Yu's jumping ability is also very good..."

Jiangcheng No. [-] Middle School adopted a man-to-man tactic, and followed very closely. Baizhou High School didn't make a phone call. Seeing that the time to attack with the ball was approaching, they could only hastily take the ball from the outside line, hitting the basket and jumping high.

But at this time Zhang Yu lost his position, being stuck behind the opponent's center, he could only watch the opponent take off...

"It's not that easy." A figure leaped into the air, took off the backboard and shouted: "Fast break." It was Li Yifan.

Xue Baohua was the quickest to react. He had already run across the half court. The ball flew out of the crowd and landed in his hands.

After resuming the game, Baizhou High School still had no way to deal with Li Yifan.How do you defend against someone who is fast, can shoot suddenly and has a high hit rate?

So at the end of the third quarter, Baizhou High School was opened up to a bigger point difference.

In the last quarter, Li Yifan didn't even play, just sat on the sidelines and watched the game end.By the time the game ended, Jiangcheng led Baizhou by 15 points.Among them, Li Yifan scored 30 points and was the scoring leader of the game, while Zhang Yu was the rebounding leader. Personally, he got a double-double. Although Ahu didn't play much, he also scored top ten points. They also worked together to score a lot of points, but Ah Hui didn't seem to want to show off today and gave Li Yifan a chance, so he didn't score a point, but got several assists.

Coach Xiangfeng nodded. There are still many things that cannot be reflected by technical statistics, but Li Yifan is definitely a genius.I just asked casually, but he was able to come up with such insightful insights, which is very commanding.After playing, he can control the situation well and stabilize the overall situation. It is very good that he can stand up and defend when needed. Contrary to his expectations.

"Coach Feng, what do you think of this game!" Li Xiang was full of anticipation.

"The next game will be even better!" Coach Feng nodded and said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, he walked to the vicinity of Baizhou High School, glanced at Yue Qun and the others present, just smiled, and left the court.

Two days later, the match was held as scheduled, just like last time, they were all old friends.

The hands of the two sides were a little tight as soon as they played. After a few rounds of testing, Zhang Yuqiang hit the inside and scored the first two points of Jiangcheng No. 19 Middle School. Next, Baizhou High School also scored alternately in the counterattack. Xue Baohua before the first quarter A three-pointer at the buzzer, Jiangcheng No. 15 Middle School leads [-]:[-]
The second quarter of the game was exactly the same. Jiangcheng No. 38 Middle School played very calmly, and continued to maintain a six-point lead at 32:[-].

Everyone was quite relaxed when they came out of the lounge. In Li Yifan's most arrogant words, "I abused the dog last time, and this time I will abuse the dog too. How could Xianyu turn him over?"

However, Coach Xiangfeng has a bit of worry and inexplicable worry in his heart. The two peripheral shooters of Baizhou High School take too few shots, and the sharpest offense of Baizhou High School is their three-pointers. This is a bit abnormal. I hope there will be no accidents.

The outside line was out of balance for two consecutive games, and coach Xiangfeng didn't really believe it.

However, Coach Xiangfeng's worry soon became a reality. At the beginning of the third quarter, Baizhou High School Yue Qun hit two three-pointers in a row, but Jiangcheng No. [-] Middle School also scored. Zhongdu returned without success, and Zulong hit two three-pointers from Baizhou High School. The opponent reversed the score and coach Xiangfeng was forced to call a timeout.

Coach Xiangfeng said: "First look inside and outside. If you can't do it, don't fight. Look for more opportunities. When defending, stick to the defense and use your body to resist them. Do you understand???"

"Understood!!!"

After the game came back, Ah Hu passed the ball to Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu leaned on Shen Jiaqi and walked in, Yue Qun came to help Zhang Yu hurriedly passed to Xue Baohua, who was unguarded on the outside, and raised his hand to shoot, the man defending Ah Hui made it up Soon his hands were almost covering Xue Baohua's head, Xue Baohua had no choice but to pass the ball to A Hui, and he shot it easily, but the ball hit the basket and missed.

Baizhou High School got the rebound and advanced to the frontcourt. Jiangcheng No. [-] Middle School has changed to a three-two defense and expanded the defensive range to the outside. Baizhou High School couldn't find a chance to make a shot. Shen Jiaqi of his team defended against a hand throw, and Shen Jiaqi shot a basketball from the free throw line.

Coach Xiangfeng applauded the players on the sidelines. The ball was defended very well. Although the opponent scored, it was difficult to score.Basketball is not football. Soccer defense is good. If a player is well defended, he can "steam away" on the court and the opponent can't score a single goal in a game.But basketball is not good. No matter how good the defense is, the opponent can score goals, but the number of goals and the difficulty of the process are different. The opponent who defended the ball just now couldn't make a shot from the outside and could only break through. There was a gap in the process. That's all, and such a vacancy does not appear all the time.

With the expansion of Jiangcheng No. 53 Middle School's defensive range, Baizhou High School's shooting rate dropped sharply, but Jiangcheng No. 59 Middle School's own offense had problems. The players behind [-] became more and more irritable and made frequent mistakes. Coach Xiangfeng called a timeout to no avail. The atmosphere on the bench was very depressed.

"Drip" the referee's whistle sounded again.

"Handling foul."

Ah Hui's face was very ugly. He had already been sent off for five fouls. When he passed by Coach Xiangfeng who had the same complexion as him, he lowered his head and said softly, "Coach Xiangfeng, I'm sorry."

Coach Xiangfeng was not in the mood to listen to what he had to say, his eyes had been on the bench for a long time, and finally his eyes stopped on Li Yifan.

Gritting his teeth, "Li Yifan, you go."

Li Yifan was stunned and then woke up, jumped up happily and took off his coat.

"You attack with all your strength." Coach Xiangfeng added.

Seeing Li Yifan coming up to the field, several people became excited, and the depressed mood just now was swept away, and Zhang Yu hugged him up all at once.

The audience off the court looked at them wondering why they were on the bench, and they were so excited.Occasionally, a few people remembered his performance in the first game, but they also felt that it was a bit late to start now.

Baizhou High School missed the second free throw, Zhang Yu grabbed the rebound, and now trails by 7 points with a little more than 3 minutes left on the field.

Ahu holds the ball and Li Yifan plays shooting guard. He uses Tong Haifeng to make an off-ball block and throws off the defender and runs to the baseline.

As soon as he settled down, Ah Hu's ball arrived, and Li Yifan threw his hand and the opponent couldn't react. He could only watch the ball fly towards the basket...

The "pong" ball hit the upper edge of the basket and bounced up.The ball missed!
