Chapter 23 Fierce Confrontation

(Thank you to finish the chapter with hard work, brothers, Liu'er is preparing to explode at the end of the month~~Recommended, collect, smash me~~)

After Zhou Yi covered the attack, he easily took off the rebound and passed the ball to McGrady. After McGrady dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, he handed the ball to Zhou Yi again. Obviously, McGrady wanted Zhou Yi to perform well. Zhou Yi did not disappoint McGrady's kindness. After the lesson of being intercepted last time, Zhou Yi was more careful in dribbling and basically did not use any fancy moves. After a few disguised breakthroughs, Zhou Yi easily got rid of White's defense.

, rushed to the basket, and a horse arched an arrow and sent the ball into the basket. As the ball entered, the whistle sounded. The referee walked to Da Ben and signaled that he would foul when Zhou Yi was shooting. Da Ben shook his head helplessly. Zhou Yi walked to the free throw line, took the referee's ball, took a deep breath, and the basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, falling steadily into the basket, and two plus one successfully made a successful match. Zhou Yi and his teammates slapped and quickly retreated to defend.

Next, Team A also scored a goal under the leadership of Wilcox.

Zhou Yi made several dribbling balls under his crotch and suddenly accelerated, but did not pass White. White stretched out his hands and used Bathir's usual moves to block Zhou Yi's sight. With less than twenty seconds left, Zhou Yi's side only had the last attack. Zhou Yi slowly spent time and controlled the rhythm in his hands. At this time, Villanuo came up to make a pick-and-roll for Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi broke through quickly, and Villanuo broke to the outside line. Zhou Yi's sharp eyes and instantly passed the ball to the latter. The latter did not choose to take action, but passed the ball to Mark Hill who was pulling the paint area. Mark Hill jumped and the ball entered. Then the referee's whistle also sounded as the ball entered, and the first quarter ended.

"Hey, man, I'm doing a good job." Bynum smiled at Zhou Yi who was walking over.

Zhou Yi smiled and changed the topic and said, "The current score is 25:21, and we are still 4 points ahead. Although we are leading, we cannot be careless."

"That's right, Zhou is right. Show your passion and devote yourself to the game. Be sure to pay attention to defense. Zhou, you performed well just now, keep working hard." The coach said with a smile at Zhou Yi.

"Well, I will."

After resting for a while, everyone quickly returned to the court. The lineups of both sides made a slight change in the second quarter. McGrady of Team B was replaced by "Little Prince" Prince, Mark Hill was replaced by Greg Monroe. Summers, who was against A, was replaced by Hamilton, and Da Ben was replaced by Dayer.

The ball rights belong to Team B.

Zhou Yi quickly advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and then passed it to Prince. Prince leaned against Hamilton and chose a single. Zhou Yi ran back to the basket. Prince passed the ball to the ground, and the ball reached Zhou Yi's hand. Zhou Yi then passed the ball to Villanuo who was pulling outside the three-point line. The latter opened his hand and sent a three-pointer. The ball hit the basket's neck and bounced out, and was protected by Dayer.

White was a little annoyed. He didn't have much chance in the team, but this Chinese kid actually... White thought to himself and brought the ball to the frontcourt. Zhou Yi pressed him tightly and defended him tightly. Zhou Yi did not reach out to get the ball, but calmly observed the opponent's movements. White made a beautiful fake move, shook Zhou Yi's defense away and brought the ball to the near the paint area. Zhou Yi hurried over to make up for the defense, but White made it very decisive. As soon as Zhou Yi made up for it, the ball entered the basket. Just when White landed, his elbow pressed on Zhou Yi's lower abdomen, intentionally or unintentionally. Zhou Yi immediately covered his stomach, and a very painful expression appeared on his face. Seeing this, the assistant coach immediately asked the referee for a timeout and replaced Zhou Yi.

Because White's movement was very secretive, the referee and everyone did not notice it. In addition, it was a training ground and there was no video for reference. Therefore, Zhou Yi didn't say anything, but told the coach that he accidentally encountered it and just had a rest. After seeing Zhou Yi's painful expression, White smiled coldly in his heart: "This is the end."

The assistant coach let Bynum replace Zhou Yi again, while Zhou Yi sat on the sidelines, still covering his lower abdomen, staring nervously at the situation in the audience.

I don’t know if it was because of Zhou Yi’s fate or why Team B’s offense suddenly fell into trouble. On the contrary, Team A, led by Hamilton, led by 'mask', to a small climax of 8-0, while the score turned into 34:30 under this shock wave, and Team A took the lead by 4 points.

Monroe was still a rookie. He had no other outstanding performance on the court except for grabbing a few rebounds. On the contrary, he made three mistakes. Therefore, the assistant coach decisively replaced Monroe with McGrady. However, when Monroe came down, the assistant coach immediately found that his height had dropped a lot. Because although Mark Hill could play power forward, he was just replaced. On the court, except Villanueva could play power forward, McGrady played shooting guard and small forward, Prince was a small forward, Gordon was a shooting guard and point guard, and Bynum was a point guard. The assistant coach sighed in his heart, but he was helpless.

The game continued. After Team A saw the height disadvantage of Team B, he began to play in the inside. Wilcox teamed up with Dayer to score crazy points in Team B's inside, giving Team B another shock wave of 8-0. The score quickly reached 42:32, and Team B was 10 points behind.

Looking at the performance of the players on the court, the assistant coach shook his head, turned around, and asked Zhou Yi with concern: "Is the injury just now okay?"

Zhou Yi shook his head and replied with a smile: "It's okay, coach. Now, our team is completely at a disadvantage!"

"Yes, the opponent has a height advantage, and the strength on the outside is not weaker than ours." The assistant coach said helplessly.

However, this was just less than 4 minutes from the beginning of the second quarter. Team B, led by experienced players such as McGrady and Prince, quickly counterattacked, and the score gap immediately narrowed to 5 points. However, Team B's offense improved a little at the beginning, and was once again suppressed by Team A. Team A not only scored 4 points in the inside, but Stuckey and Hamilton shot three-pointers one after another. Although Prince made another mid-range shot, Team B was still 13 points behind, and the gap was getting bigger and bigger.

At this time, the assistant coach asked for another timeout, but this time it was a long timeout. The assistant coach patiently explained the tactics to the players and once again emphasized the need to defend.

The time-out time has come, and the players of both sides have returned to the court. Team B replaced Gordon with Mark Hill, and Monroe replaced Villanuo. Team A's lineup has not changed.

The lineups on the court are now: Team A: Wilcox, Dayer, Hamilton, Stuckey and White; Team B is: Mark Hill, Monroe, Prince, McGrady, Bynum.

The game continues, and the ball rights belong to Team B. There are five minutes left before the end of the half.

Although Team B adjusted its lineup, the situation of lagging behind did not improve, and on the contrary, the gap seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. The assistant coach held his arms with both hands, watched the game on the court helplessly, and shook his head.

"Oh, Kuster is very familiar with the situation here, so he can always find out our loopholes." The assistant coach murmured to himself.

Stucky dribbled through Bynum. Although Bynum's body was much stronger than Stucky, Stucky cleverly took advantage of the speed advantage, threw away Bynum's defense, and quickly took the ball over the sky. Bynum was not willing to do so, so he rushed towards Stucky directly. The referee's whistle immediately sounded, and the basketball fell into the basket. Bynum's recklessness allowed Stucky to successfully complete the three-pointer, thus widening the score gap to 16 points.

The assistant coach turned his head and asked Zhou Yi: "Can you still play?" "It's totally possible." Zhou Yi nodded heavily and replied.

Since Bynum had already received his third foul, the assistant coach had to replace him with Zhou Yi.
