Chapter 54 - Not Just Breakthrough

"Beep..."

The Third Middle School requested a suspension.

At this time, the first quarter has been played for eight minutes, with a score of 21:20. Not only did they catch up with a 6-point difference, they also surpassed it by 1 point.

Jiang Yang had a solemn expression and did not blame the players. He just made a staff rotation and replaced Tu Lei, Meng Hao, and Hu Zhixuan, and replaced them with substitute players.

After arranging the tactics for the substitute players, Jiang Yang looked at Tu Lei and others and said: "I have to say that the opposing coach is very competent, but we are a little too dependent on Tu Lei. Meng Hao, Hu Zhixuan, Zheng Chengdong, etc. In the next second quarter, if the other party once again besieged Tu Lei, you will have to stand up and score, understand?"

"Understood." The three replied in unison.

Jiang Yang nodded and they played for eight minutes in the first quarter. They actually fell behind by one point. This was a bit beyond his expectation. He didn't expect the seventh middle school to be so strong, and he didn't expect the seventh middle school coach to have such a vicious vision. Soon he saw the problem on his side.

However, this section was only somewhat unexpected. Tu Lei was restricted by the opponent, and Hu Zhixuan, Meng Hao and others were a little flustered for a while.

Wait until the second quarter, but it won't be like that anymore.

The side of Seven Middle School.

Jiang Fangping praised Qin Hao and others, and then replaced them, replacing Qin Hao, Jiang Feng, and Wang Lei together with other players. Yuan Xiaogang and Guo Kai continued to stay on the court.

With two minutes left in the first quarter, after coming back from the timeout, he scored one of the three in the first. Using the continuous passing of the ball, he finally seized the gap of the seven in the missed defense, and the substitute Yu Liang made a mid-range shot.

After the seventh counterattack, the ball was given to Wang Chengyu. Wang Chengyu made a three-pointer but failed to score. The opponent counterattacked and passed the ball continuously, which was so fast that it was dizzying.

After passing the ball several times, the defense of the Seventh Middle School had problems, allowing the opponent to burst into the inside. Guo Kai jumped to block but was called a foul.

Seeing the third-middle player on the free throw line, Jiang Fangping frowned: "It's worthy of being the defending champion. It really has a deep background, and even the technical and tactical level of the bench lineup is so high."

In terms of the lineup, there are Guo Kai, Yuan Xiaogang, Wang Chengyu, etc. in the seventh middle school, which is almost a set of last year's starting lineup, and the bench lineup compared to the third middle school should have the upper hand. However, the technical and tactical level of the third middle school's bench lineup is actually very high, and they have tacit cooperation, which makes the seventh middle school a little uncomfortable for a time.

Fortunately, Yuan Xiaogang broke through. After attracting the defense, he divided the ball to Guo Kai. The two old partners cooperated and Guo Kai made a jumper.

After that until the end of the first quarter, both sides did not score again. The score was fixed at 24:23, leading by one point by the third middle school.

"It deserves to be the third middle school, even the bench is so strong." Qu Yan's expression was solemn, he couldn't help but think, if he didn't lose to the seventh high school in the semi-finals, and reached the finals against the third high school, can he and others win? He shook his head. Although he didn't want to admit it, the answer was indeed no.

"Seventh Middle School played very well, and it was able to fight like this to the Third Middle School. To be honest, it was a little bit beyond my expectations." Zuo Xiaojun also said.

Judging from the first quarter, both sides are equal in strength, and no one can take advantage of much.

Therefore, Qu Yan, Zuo Xiaojun, and Lu Xing are having a hard time judging who wins and loses in this game, but they are more and more curious.

Who will be king at the top and who will end up defeated?

I'm afraid he will only know it only at the last minute!

...

"The points difference has been opened."

"Yeah, it's not good to go on like this."

In the auditorium, the seventh middle school student looked at the stadium worriedly.

By this time the second quarter was already halfway through, because Qin Hao, Jiang Feng, Guo Kai and others played longer in the first quarter, so Jiang Fangping did not let them come back in the second quarter, but instead sent a substitute lineup, but the seventh middle school bench lineup was obviously inferior to the third middle school, and within a few minutes, the points difference was stretched.

"Substitution." Jiang Fangping asked for a substitution. At this time, the point difference had been stretched to 8 points. If the point difference was stretched to double digits, it would be really bad.

"Qin Hao, Jiang Feng, you two go up." Jiang Fangping looked at Qin Hao and Jiang Feng, and quickly arranged: "Qin Hao, organize the offense. We are playing a bit messy, but you must act decisively when you should. Jiang Feng, show your scoring ability. Your only task is to score."

"clear."

"Yes."

The two responded, replacing Lei Yuchuan and Zhao Xuebing, and the five on the court became Fu Qiang, Zhao Hai, Jiang Feng, Yuan Xiaogang, and Qin Hao.

But at this moment, the coach of the Third Middle School also requested a substitution and replaced Tu Lei.

Qin Hao frowned and exchanged glances with Jiang Feng. He took the ball from the backcourt and quickly advanced to the frontcourt. The third substitute guard Yang Zhi came up. He opened his hands and was one meter away from Qin Hao. He was obviously afraid of Qin Hao. The breakthrough, leaving enough distance for reaction.

Upon seeing this, Qin Hao suddenly changed direction. Yang Zhi's heart trembled, and he quickly retreated half a step, and he was already within the free throw line.

At this moment, Qin Hao withdrew and made a mid-range shot.

"What?" Yang Zhi was taken aback.

"Huh!"

With a soft sound, the ball is scored.

Not only Yang Zhi was shocked, but the other players in the Third Middle School were also astonished. Tu Lei's expression changed abruptly. He thought that Qin Hao was only a sharp breakthrough, but he did not expect that he was also good at shooting. A speed like wind, a sharp breakthrough, and a steady shot, how to defend?

Yang Zhi also reacted and looked at Tu Lei: "How can I prevent it?"

Tu Lei thought for a while and said: "Normal defense, don't get too far away. As for his breakthrough, I and others will help you make up for it."

There is no other way. It is very clear how difficult it is for a player who can make a sudden shot to defend against Tu Lei, because he is this type of person. Too far away and unable to prevent him from shooting, both left and right are in dilemma.

On the sidelines, the coach of No. 3 Middle School Jiang Yang also changed his face, stood up after rubbing, frowning and pacing back and forth, thinking about how to respond.

Here, Jiang Fangping has a stone-face and an unpredictable expression. He is actually pretending to be unpredictable, because he is very clear that Qin Hao's shooting moves look very standard, but he can't tell. Very unstable, sometimes accurate, sometimes inaccurate.

The reason why Qin Hao chose to shoot the ball just now was obviously a gambling element.

"This kid is too treacherous. Oh no, he is too smart." Jiang Fangping said inwardly.

at the same time.

In the audience, Qu Yan, Lu Xing, and Zuo Xiaojun's eyes widened, and they were all astonished. Lu Xing exclaimed, "He can even shoot?"

"This..." Zuo Xiaojun opened his mouth and mumbled: "Damn it, isn't this guy only good at breaking through? It's rare to see him shooting."

Not only them, but other people who know Qin Hao and have seen him in the first three games are all surprised. Qin Hao has hardly made a shot in the previous three games. They are all breakthroughs. Many people think that he will only break through. Now suddenly There is a feeling of being deceived by Qin Hao.

But after thinking about it carefully, They felt that something was wrong. Since Qin Hao has shooting ability, why didn't he shoot in the first three games?
