Rebirth of Basketball Boy

Chapter 389 Provocation

The world is constantly developing and improving. Basketball is the same. In the most primitive definition of basketball, a point guard is the position where the five people on the court least need to score. In the early days of the NBA, there was indeed no point guard. Become the top star of the league.At that time, it belonged to big men. George McCann, Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell and other seven-foot-long talents were the power to rule the NBA.It was not until the birth of the "Magic" Irwin Johnson and the "Smiling Assassin" Isaiah Thomas in the 1980s that the importance of the point guard gradually became apparent.

The 90s belonged to the era of the four major centers named Jordan and Hakeem Olajuwon, David Robinson, Patrick Ewing and Alonzo Mourning. John Stoke survived in the cracks. Dayton and Kevin Johnson barely maintained their glory as point guards.

But as time enters the 21st century, with Jason Kidd leading the basket twice into the Finals and Steve Nash winning the regular season MVP, the importance of point guards has reached an unprecedented height.After Kidd and Nash, a new generation of point guards, such as Chris Paul and Deron Williams, appeared again.If it was said that ten years ago, "the insiders win the world", then today, having an excellent point guard is the most important basis for a team to win the championship.

At the beginning of 2005, this was the rookie season for Paul and Deron, but even so, the two of them together with Raymond Felton have become the core players of their respective teams. Paul became the "Queen Bee" and Deron. Long took the gun from Stockton, and Felton led the young Bobcats on the road to the playoffs.

Cai Xiao wanted to tell Xu Yong that it was not that he liked to play singles with the ball, but because this was the general trend. A point guard with no offensive power, even with keen insight and accurate passing, would not be able to stand on the court. of.

Opening his mouth, Cai Xiao still chose to remain silent, obviously Xu Yong didn't want to listen to his explanation.There is no room for two tigers in a mountain, unless one male and one female.At least Cai Xiaoxin thinks so. In other words, he is also born in the national junior team of Zheng Miaohong, while Xu Yong is only valued by the coach because of Yao Ming. Otherwise, the core of the Nanyang model must not be He is none other than.

"I don't think any of you are willing to lose this game? If you have one, stand up, if you don't, then all of you can sing a song for me." Ji Gang glanced at all the players with a complicated expression. , And then slowly said: "Unity is strength. I hope you can think about why unity is strength when singing this song! Why is one man short and ten strong!"

Silence, deathly silence.

No one takes the lead, and no one speaks. Naturally, it’s not because the players don’t know how to sing this song, but they can’t speak. You know this is a national live broadcast. If you sing a song stupidly, it will be as embarrassing as it is. .

"sing!"

Ji Gang screamed, angrily stood up, cleared his throat and continued: "I will give you a start, prepare, and get up! Unity is strength, and unity is strength!"

"This power is iron, this power is steel..."

The coach has already started to sing. Even if the players are reluctant, they can only choose to sing along. When they first started singing, their expressions were twisted and their voices were low, but as they sang, they gradually forgot everything. Yelled loudly.

The whole audience looked here curiously, and the broadcast footage would naturally not miss this very inspirational scene. The song "Unity is Power" is still widely sung, and at least nine out of ten viewers will speak Sing, and slowly the infected audience began to sing along...

Yan Lingfeng looked at the opponents who were singing in a passionate chorus amused, and a knowing smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. I have to say that Nanyang's model coach still has two brushes, which he used before the team fell into a crisis of infighting. This is the most appropriate and effective method. No matter whether Xu Yong and Cai Xiao are infected by the lyrics, they will definitely be united in the competition just for this song. At least it is not like before. That glared at each other.

After singing a song, Ji Gang's expression became even more grim. A pair of eyes swept across the faces of the players as if they were covered with ice. He raised his finger to the score on the curtain wall, and then pointed again. Stadium, "I reminded you more than once that this is a game we cannot afford to lose! Now I still want to emphasize that I don’t care whether you want it or not, but on the stadium, you must treat your teammates as brothers. Believe him, support him, and unite, so that we can come to a dead end. Otherwise, we will never see a chance."

Taking a deep breath, Xu Yong looked at Cai Xiao and nodded slowly.

Cai Xiao also looked at Xu Yong and raised his right hand.

When they met with a smile, Xu Yong firmly grasped Cai Xiao's palm and shook it firmly.

The two looked at each other and smiled, everything is silent.When the mind is communicated, language is not so important.

Back on the field, it was obvious that all the Nanyang model players had undergone tremendous changes in their spirits. This change was seen in Yan Lingfeng's eyes. One of his heart jumped unconsciously and closed his eyes. Taking a deep breath, Yan Lingfeng's expression has never been more solemn.

Nanyang Model can't afford to lose in this game, and Shuiyun No. 1 Middle School can't lose either. If you lose, you will compete with the powerful Tsinghua High School in the final game.Whether you win or lose, the initiative to qualify will not be in your own hands.

Inspired by the song "Unity is Power", and with the desire to win and win, Nanyang Models finally showed their terrifying side after this timeout ended.Cai Xiao dribbled the ball in a high position to attract the defense. Xu Yong got rid of Wu Fengtao's defense and ran to the basket through continuous running. The fast-eyed Cai Xiao made a precise shot and passed the ball in place. After he got the ball, Xu Yong violently slammed in place with both hands. The dunk pulled the rim into an exaggerated angle, and the shaky dunk made people couldn’t help worrying about the quality of the rim.

Xu Yong did not let go of his hands for the first time, but made an exaggerated pull-up by hanging the basket with both hands. His long hair floated without wind, hissing and howling, domineering and passionate.

Yan Lingfeng looked at Xu Yong on the basket, grinned, and kindly stepped forward and patted Xu Yong's knee gently, and then kindly reminded: "Dunking is risky, you need to be cautious when hanging the basket. !"

Xu Yongzheng was intoxicated by his domineering side leakage. He heard Yan Lingfeng’s crow kick kicking his legs uncomfortably. He glanced at him obliquely, relaxed his hands and dropped to the floor, and snorted: "Cat Crying mouse, fake mercy!"

False compassion is still true kindness. Yan Lingfeng doesn’t seem to have made too many explanations. Before the bad news of Xu Yong was injured and had to stop his basketball career in his previous life, everyone would not believe that this promising genius would become a yellow flower yesterday. .I still remember that Yan Lingfeng still felt sorry for China's loss of a forward who might enter the NBA.Xu Yong is still a talented and talented young man. If he can, Yan Lingfeng naturally does not hope that this new star who is likely to become a teammate in the future will fall.After all, according to the current development trend, both Yan Lingfeng and Xu Yong are sure to become members of the men's basketball team in the future.

18:16!

Just like two armies facing each other, it is impossible for the players on both sides of the basketball court to have high fighting spirit forever. If one side is strong, the other will inevitably fall.The Nanyang Model has begun to gain momentum, and it is difficult for Shuiyun Yizhong to continue to be strong.In the face of Sun Shoujian, who was insane and generally defensive, Yan Lingfeng was still unable to effectively complete the breakthrough despite being superior in all aspects.One person is desperate, and one's potential is never exhausted, but it needs constant stimulation.

In desperation, he chose to pass the ball, but the receiver Wu Fengtao also had no better way to crack Wu Fengtao's defense. In the end, he could only passively take the shot when the offensive time was approaching. Although his strength is not bad, he is not like a superstar. Turning decay into magical energy, basketball has no surprise to deviate from the goal.

The fight on the outside line has become popular with the bayonet, and the fight on the inside line is extremely fierce.Gao Yang and Xu Zhong both have strong physical strength, but under the desperate defense of the two Nanyang model inside players, Zhang Bo and Liu Dapeng, they did not seize a favorable position. They were both squeezed behind by their opponents. The rebound fell in the hands of Xu Yong, who turned around and rushed into the post and jumped high.

Although Xu Yong’s physical fitness is excellent, he doesn’t have Yan Lingfeng’s ability to spin the top in the air. He passed the ball after landing. Cai Xiao, who had already told the activation, looked back at the moon to catch the ball, and then bit. Ya put the speed to the highest, and the wind rushed towards the half of Shuiyun No.1 Middle School.

Sun Feiying, who was fighting and retreating, was almost broken by Cai Xiao's sharp acceleration change. She fell to the ground with her legs soft, and Yan Lingfeng, who was sullen and running, was finally killed by Cai Xiao. Previously, he stood on the inside lane, opened his arms, and waited for the opponent to kill him with his eyes breathing.

Yan Lingfeng’s height, bounce, and strength are better than Cai Xiao, and he is still well prepared. At this time, the most correct choice for Cai Xiao is to stop and wait for his teammates to come forward to support. Failing to do so, Yan Lingfeng is strong, but at this moment, in his eyes, Yan Lingfeng is no different from his previous defeats.Cai Xiao has always been like this. He doesn't turn his head back when he opens the bow. As long as his speed rises, he will never stop before he achieves his goal.

Yan Lingfeng’s position selection was very accurate. Both feet were just in front of the reasonable collision zone. However, Cai Xiao had no intention of colliding with him. There was an emergency stop near the free throw line and the ball jumped with both hands. Without making any preparations for shooting, the open hand just shot an arrow, and the target pointed directly at the basket behind Yan Lingfeng.

It takes a lot of risk to stop a jump shot in a fast break. It's okay if the ball is in. Once the basketball bounces out of the basket, not only will you miss a valuable scoring opportunity, but it will also have a bad effect on the morale of the team. positive effect.

But Cai Xiao doesn't care at all. This is not because he is a bastard, but because he has strong self-confidence, confident that he can hit this shot.

Confidence is a double-edged sword in many cases. If you can't hurt your opponent, you will most likely hurt yourself.Fortunately, this time Cai Xiao's sword swing was well mastered, and the basketball flew into the basket precisely.

18:18!

Seeing that the score has been pulled apart, Nanyang Model has once again stubbornly tied the score.Xu Yong and Cai Xiao, the two Nanyang model individuals with the most outstanding personal abilities, brought the two teams back to the same starting line after scoring two points each.

Yan Lingfeng glanced at Cai Xiao deeply, and then slowly raised his thumb.

"What do you mean?" Cai Xiao raised his hand triumphantly, looking at Yan Lingfeng provocatively and asked.

"I envy you." Yan Lingfeng laughed and said, "A simple-minded person is often much happier than us who look forward and backward."

Cai Xiao rolled his eyes, turned his head and walked away with a "pooh". He was not Yan Lingfeng's opponent, so there was no need to humiliate himself.

"What to do?" Wu Fengtao walked to Yan Lingfeng's side, and asked with worry.

"Cold!" Yan Lingfeng replied nonchalantly, then glanced at him with a soothing look, patted the big brother on the shoulder, and took the basketball back and sent it to him easily.

Yan Lingfeng did not give him a reassuring answer, but his eyes gave Wu Fengtao the greatest comfort.It was a pair of eyes that were as steady as a mountain in wind and rain, that was a pair of eyes that the sky collapsed and I stood still, that was a pair of eyes that could bring infinite power to people.

Wu Fengtao passed the ball back to Yan Lingfeng, then smiled slightly and said, "It's up to you."

"Yeah." Yan Lingfeng nodded silently, and rushed to the frontcourt without dribbling.

After changing the sluggish movements before, Yan Lingfeng quickly came to the opponent's half as if he had stepped on two hot wheels under his feet.Sun Shoujian entangled in front of him like a mad dog, but this time Yan Lingfeng did not pass the ball again.What is the core?The core is someone who can turn the tide and save the team at a critical moment.What is a critical moment?The critical moment not only refers to the final moment of the game, the team is in trouble, such as now, it is also a critical moment.

Sun Shoujian's height is about 1.70 meters, which is still his height after wearing shoes, with thin arms and legs, black and thin.It doesn't look like a basketball player at all, but more like a sprinter, or a children's group.

The hand is fast and the response is quick, which is Sun Shoujian's advantage.But when Yan Lingfeng was shamelessly choosing to play with his back, his advantages suddenly disappeared, but his weaknesses were fully demonstrated. His strength and shortcomings against the above caused Sun Shoujian to be injured very much. Yan Lingfeng was like a bulldozer. I used my back to squeeze back again and again, unable to retreat, but still retreating...

After retreating to the bottom line, Yan Lingfeng finally showed compassion, took a step back, turned to side to the basket, raised the left arm with one hand and raised the ball with one hand. The left-handed Xiaotian hook, helpless to all defenders, attacked the basket.

"Swipe!" With a crisp sound, the basketball passed through the net accurately, causing white waves...

Yan Lingfeng did not celebrate the goal, but ran to the bench of Nanyang Model in small steps, stretched out his hands with a solemn expression on his face, and made a gesture requesting a timeout.

According to the rules of the competition, players have no right to apply for a suspension of the game, so Yan Lingfeng does not have to worry about being suspended for promiscuity like Chris Weber and getting a technical foul, which led to the elimination of the "Michigan Five Tigers" that swept the United States in the 1990s. Missed the NCAA championship.

Ji Gang looked at Yan Lingfeng with a blue face, trying to control his urge to hit someone. He ignored Yan Lingfeng's Hong Guoguo's provocation, but turned to look at the referee, with a grievance comparable to June. Dou E in the snowy sky.

The referee hesitated, but still ignored Ji Gang's grievance.An individual can tell that Yan Lingfeng is provoking Ji Gang, but firstly, Yan Lingfeng did not speak, and secondly, Yan Lingfeng did not make insulting gestures, so he punished Yan Lingfeng solely from the judgment of motivation. There is a certain degree of risk. Who doesn't know that Shuiyun First Middle School is a team that is not willing to suffer?If you want to play some shady in their game, you must prepare the helmet in advance.

There was no way to redress, Ji Gang could only endure the bad breath, glared at Yan Lingfeng fiercely, and comforted himself with the spirit of Ah Q. This guy is neurotic, and whoever is serious about him is just as neurotic as him.

A minute later, the neurosis came again!

After Xu Yong turned over and missed a jumper, Yan Lingfeng grabbed a defensive rebound and advanced to the frontcourt. With speed and physical advantage, he forced into the depths of the Nanyang model defense line. Once I ran in front of Ji Gang, once again he made a request for a timeout, and once again reminded Ji Gang that if he couldn't hold it, he could request a timeout!A timeout may not be omnipotent, but for your Nanyang model, it is absolutely impossible without a timeout!

Ji Gang's face has turned purple and blue with anger, and his fists are tightly clenched together. He does not want to be mentally ill, but the reality forces him to get nervous.

Fortunately, Yan Lingfeng understands the principle of accepting as soon as he sees it, and he hasn't waited until Ji has just gone crazy and has already withdrawn
