Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

"boom!"

With a muffled sound, Zhuang Yu shot the ball.

The University of Arizona counterattacked with a rebound. After reaching the front court, it quickly passed the ball to power forward Grete. Grete hugged the ball and slapped it on the floor, then rushed to the basket. Parker wanted to block the shot. As a result, I got a foul.

"Requesting a timeout."

Coach Holland called a timeout.

At this time, ten minutes had passed in the second half, and Zhuang Yu only rested for two minutes from the beginning of the second half. He had to defend Hill and shoulder the burden of scoring on the offensive end. Sometimes he even faced two or three opponents. The defense scored the ball.

Only halfway through the second half, Zhuang Yu's physical exertion was already so great that coach Holland had to call a timeout to let Zhuang Yu breathe.

When the players came to the side, coach Holland said: "Exit Zhuang Yu..."

"Coach." Zhuang Yu suddenly said, "I can do it, let me continue playing."

"But your physical fitness..." Coach Holland hesitated, looked into Zhuang Yu's eyes, and finally nodded, "Okay then."

Without Anderson, the team has no sixth man. If Zhuang Yu is also replaced, many tactics will not be possible. Without Zhuang Yu's leadership, the point difference will definitely be widened. This was verified in the two minutes before Zhuang Yu came off the field.

Therefore, knowing that Zhuang Yu consumes a lot of energy, Coach Holland can only let him continue playing. There is no other way.

"Adams, you're coming up later." Coach Holland shouted: "You go to guard Hill, you only need to do this one thing well, do you understand?"

"Yes." Adams understood that he was going up there to be a coolie, to lighten Zhuang Yu's burden, so that Zhuang Yu didn't have to work so hard on the defensive end, so that he could focus on offense.

If it were before, Adams would definitely be very unhappy.

But to this day, he has been impressed by Zhuang Yu's wonderful performances, and he no longer feels unhappy at all.

This is how people are, when you feel that someone is about the same level as you, or only a little better than you, you will envy him, be jealous of him, or even hate him. But when someone is much better than you, you may not even be able to feel jealous.

What's more, since Mohammed was abandoned, Zhuang Yu is now the absolute core of the team and will also be the team's boss in the future.

How dare Adams argue with Zhuang Yu?

At this time, it is a rare opportunity for him that the coach can entrust him with such an important task.

After that, coach Holland made some arrangements for the tactics, and then said to Zhuang Yu: "Leave defense to your teammates. Your physical energy consumption is too great. Just focus on offense."

Zhuang Yu nodded.

......

The pause ended quickly.

The two sides returned to the court, and Zhuang Yu no longer guarded Hill. However, the University of Arizona obviously knew that Zhuang Yu consumed a lot of physical energy, and began to continuously consume Zhuang Yu in a targeted manner.

When Hill gets the ball, although Zhuang Yu does not directly confront him, he will use pick-and-rolls and screens to seek mismatches. In the end, he will find Zhuang Yu and beat Zhuang Yu in singles.

Hill's offense is also very simple and crude, relying on physical force and actively creating physical confrontation, striving to consume Zhuang Yu to the maximum extent.

"Shh!"

With a soft sound, Hill knocked Zhuang Yu away and hit a layup.

Zhuang Yu held his knees and gasped for breath. Adams ran over, lowered his head and said, "It's all my fault that I couldn't keep up..."

"Keep a closer eye next time." Zhuang Yu didn't have the energy to answer Adams now. He didn't even want to say anything. He just wanted to take a breath of fresh air.

Only when cold air is sucked into his lungs can he feel better.

Ucla attack.

Zhuang Yu came to the frontcourt. At this time, the five people on the court were Drew II, Adams, Zhuang Yu, David, and Lamb.

It was Drew II who was responsible for advancing with the ball and passing the ball to Zhuang Yu after reaching the frontcourt.

As soon as they saw Zhuang Yu get the ball, the University of Arizona immediately pounced forward. Instead of double-teaming, they set up a 2-1-2 formation. However, Zhuang Yu still relied on breakthroughs and pull-up jumpers to score. He also tried to pass the ball. To teammates, but the effect is not good.

Zhuang Yu suddenly accelerated and moved to the left, and Hill rushed forward, but Zhuang Yu did not hesitate and immediately jumped up to take action. His jumping speed had slowed down a lot.

But before Hill's palm could pounce, he still threw the ball.

brush!

There was a soft sound and the ball was scored.

The audience cheered loudly, like thunder, and every UCLA fan cheered and shouted for Zhuang Yu.

On the scoreboard, Zhuang Yu's data was refreshed again, with 24 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists, the highest score in the game, the highest assists in the game, and second in the team in rebounds.

This is Zhuang Yu's performance today.

And, the game is not over yet.

There is no doubt that Zhuang Yu was very good today. Whenever the team needs him, he can step forward.

However, the score was only a tie!

......

A few more minutes passed, and both sides made substitutions again, bringing on all the main players.

On UCL's side, Latvis, Parker, and Powell all returned to the court. They all took a break, except Zhuang Yu.

Several people looked at Zhuang Yu worriedly.

"I'm fine." Zhuang Yu looked a little pale and smiled at his teammates.

Several teammates had a sore nose. They wished they could be stronger and help Zhuang Yu share the pressure, but they couldn't.

The game continues...

When entering the final minutes, the University of Arizona's defense became more and more fierce, and the game entered the decisive stage. Every fight and every defense was very intense.

"boom!"

"beep!"

Zhuang Yu fell to the ground, the referee blew the whistle and gave Hill a foul.

His teammates ran over and pulled Zhuang Yu up. Zhuang Yu signaled to his teammates that he was fine, but his face became paler.

This time Zhuang Yu stood on the free throw line and failed to make two free throws. He only scored one, but he also chased a few points for UCLa. They were only 4 points behind.

Yes, the score difference between the two sides has been hovering between a few points.

"come on!"

"Come on Zhuang Yu!"

The fans were shouting, and the sound reached Zhuang Yu's ears. He smiled, but the fatigue that spread throughout his body made it difficult for him to even smile.

......

"Just over a minute left."

"hold onto!"

"It's only 5 points away. We still have a chance. Come on UCL, come on Bruins!"

The fans are chanting.

Zhuang Yu took the ball and hit the basket again. As the game time became less and less, he hit the basket more and more times because his shooting was no longer stable.

beep!

This time Zhuang Yu caused another foul. He stood on the free throw line, gasping for air, and waited for a long time before starting to shoot free throws.

boom!

However, it didn't go in.

This is a 1+1 free throw. As long as the first one is not scored, there will be no second one.

"It's okay." Drew II came over.

"Retreat." Zhuang Yu just turned around and silently ran towards his own half.

There was one minute left, not even the last second, and he hadn't given up yet.

At the last minute, everyone knew that Zhuang Yu had no strength. No one was shouting, and everyone fell silent.

Some people covered their mouths with wet eyes; some murmured, as if sobbing; some were mumbling that they wanted Coach Holland to replace Zhuang Yu...

On the sidelines, Coach Holland also wanted to make a substitution because Zhuang Yu looked very pale, but he was stopped by Assistant Coach Wesley.

"Let him play the last minute." Assistant coach Wesley said. He knew Zhuang Yu and knew that Zhuang Yu would not want to be replaced at this time.

......

on the field.

The University of Arizona began to press time. The 35-second attack time lasted until there were only five seconds left before attacking. UCLA defended desperately, but in the end they were called for a foul, but the opponent only scored one at the free throw line.

<app,^free novel website

The difference is 6 points.

In less than thirty seconds, the last opportunity to attack, the ball was given to Zhuang Yu's hands. His sweat dripped silently, his face was extremely pale, and his steps became slow, but his eyes were still as bright as stars......

He only had one idea, and it wasn't the last second.

A teammate came up for a pick-and-roll, and Zhuang Yu tried to get rid of it, but he no longer had the speed to get away from the defense. He glanced at the basket, then took a step back slightly and jumped up against the defense. His jump was not high, his body was even crooked, and his shooting movements were completely deformed. He was just trying to push the ball out with one hand.

It's like a child who can only push because he doesn't have enough strength.

The basketball left the fingertips and flew in the air. The orange basketball seemed to have come to life.

"Shh!"

With a soft sound, the basketball penetrated the net.

Zhuang Yu, on the other hand, fell to the ground with his feet weak. His eyes were still staring at the net. The white net was shaking and looked so beautiful.

In the audience, many girls looked away in distress. The three-pointer was scored, but the game was over.

The game is over.

With a final score of 72:69, the University of Arizona defeated UCLA with a 3-point lead and won the Pac-12 League championship.

But when this moment came, the University of Arizona players did not cheer. They just stared at Zhuang Yu, and their hearts were touched by something.

Hill lowered his head. He won, but he didn't feel happy at all. He didn't understand why, why?

"Zhuang, it's okay, you've done your best."

"You've done enough."

Teammates gathered around.

Zhuang Yu still looked at the basket. He sighed quietly and said to his teammates: "I'm fine, I just need to rest for a while."

I lost the game, but I have nothing to regret. I tried my best. And next time, I will do better and win back.

A group of teammates looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Zhuang Yu's reaction was different from what they thought.

Seeing that his teammates were still staring at him, Zhuang Yu smiled and said, "I'm really fine."

He stretched out his hand and was pulled up by his teammates. Then he raised his hand toward the audience and said in a tired voice: "I'm sorry, we lost this time. But next time, we will definitely win it back."

"Next time, we will definitely win it back."

Hearing this sentence, the teammates were excited and their bodies were trembling.

Some UCL fans heard Zhuang Yu's words, and they began to shout "MVP" loudly, and then more people followed suit. No matter what the result was, for UCL fans, Zhuang Yu was "MVP" and their hero. .

A lone hero, even though he is defeated, he is still glorious!
