Basketball starts with breathing

Chapter 102 Watching you play is really a pain

At this time in China, Wang Fei was frowning in the office. He originally wanted to confirm the player list after he entered the country, but because of Lu Yu's injury, he could not calm down.

So he turned on the TV.

The familiar faces of the two commentators appeared on the TV screen.

"CCTV, CCTV..." Sun Yiping's voice was obviously not as passionate as in the past: "The game I'm explaining now is the NCAA 2000-2001 season finals. The two sides of the game are the Wildcats from the University of Arizona and the Bulldogs from Gonzaga University. However, our Chinese national player Lu Yu, the star of the Bulldogs in this game, seems to have not appeared in the starting roster due to injury, and I don’t know if he will play in this game…”

"Let's take a look at the starting players for both sides."

"First came Arizona's starting centers: Loren Woods, power forward Michael Wright, small forward Richard Jefferson, shooting guard Albert Arenas and point guard Jason Gard Na."

"Let's take another look at Gonzaga's roster, center Casey Green, power forward Zach Goode, small forward Mark Spink, shooting guard Blake Stump, point guard Dan Dickau. "

"Lu Yu appeared on the bench list. It seems that the injury situation has affected him..."

Wang Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

He's not afraid that Lu Yu won't play this game, because winning or losing the NCAA finals doesn't matter to him.

On the contrary, he is more worried about Lu Yu playing the game, because Lu Yu was already injured. If the injury is added to the injury, it will definitely affect Lu Yu's draft market and his plan to call Lu Yu into the national team.

That's right, he plans to let Lu Yu join the national team.

In his plan, the national team's personnel this time include Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi and Bartell at the center, Liu Yudong, Gong Xiaobin and Zhang Wenqi at the power forward, Li Nan and Zhang Cheng at the small forward, and Fan Bin and Li Xiaoyong at the point guard.

Only shooting guard, only one Hu Weidong.

Originally, Wang Fei wanted to choose Zhang Jinsong, but the appearance of Lu Yu changed his mind.

Zhang Jinsong's scoring ability is definitely not as good as Lu Yu's, and Hu Weidong's decline this year is serious, and Lu Yu's appearance just makes up for the shortcomings of the shooting guard position.

With this lineup, taking it out to play the Asian Championships is a bit like killing a chicken with a knife.

It is a pity that Lu Yu was not discovered in the Olympic Games last year, and he is not the head coach of the national team, otherwise he would have reached the quarter-finals no matter what.

Maybe it can create the best results in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team.

But it's not too late. When Lu Yu is fully grown, the 04 Athens Olympics will be the golden age of these players, and the Chinese men's basketball team will also have a chance.

Of course, this is another story. What Wang Fei is most concerned about now is that Lu Yu must not play in this game.

Even if you have to play, don't get hurt again.

……

Arenas frowned and looked at Blake, who was defending him in front of him. It wasn't long before the game started, but the opponent used all his strength to defend him, and recklessly fouled him, causing him to miss several shots. Out of the basket, my mentality almost collapsed.

Has anyone played this way?
Even if you can defend against me now, you still have the strength to keep defending like this in the second half?
Or being sent off early is simply not worth the loss?

The situation on the field did not allow him to think too much. A sideways squeezed Blake, who was waving his hands desperately, and passed the ball to Richard Jefferson, who came up to meet him.

As soon as Jefferson received the ball, he saw Mark Spink's hands that were about to cover his face.

Arenas looked at the score on the scoreboard, and now it is only 8:3. Although his team is leading, he only scored 6 points after playing 8 minutes, which has already broken the team record. This cannot but be said that Gonzaga University actively The effect of defense, but can you defend yourself with defense alone?

He sneered, and a fake pass made Blake Stepp look sideways.

Just then, Arenas suddenly shot.

Blake was startled. His first reaction was to jump up high to block the ball. As soon as his center of gravity was raised, he saw the sneer at the corner of Arenas' mouth.

"It's over."

He understood that Arenas wasn't shooting at all, but now that he was in the air, he could only watch Arenas pass by him like a sly fox, while Casey inside was choking on Woods.

Although Casey is a lot shorter than Woods, he will never let Woods occupy a favorable position. The two don't look like an inside confrontation, but more like a fight.

Arenas bypasses Casey for an easy layup.

10:2
Casey patted Black on the shoulder: "Don't be depressed, you defended very well, didn't you see that Arenas only scored four points until now, you know he is a scoring machine, he only scored four points after playing for almost 7 minutes , is already a very rare thing for him."

Seeing the fighting spirit regained in Blake's eyes, he shouted: "Let's attack!"

"attack!"

Black rushed forward like a red-eyed leopard.

Dan Decau swayed Gardner with a fake move, passed Blake, Blake made a mid-range jumper, and the basketball came out in a circle on the rim to the cheers of Gonzaga fans...?

"Fake! Do you want to carry your back like this!"

Blake snorted.

A black figure under the basket roared and took the basketball in his arms. Gonzaga fans jumped up and screamed, and even Su Qun stood up and applauded Casey's rebound.

A group of Arizona fans in white jerseys glared at him next to him.

Su Qun sat down awkwardly, took out his mobile phone and called Wang Fei.

"He didn't play."

"I know, I'm watching the game live."

"Do you want him to play, or not?"

"..."

Wang Fei did not answer his question.

Hang up the phone and continue watching the game.

Score 10:4
The University of Arizona leads for now.

Arenas punched Blake several times, but encountered the opponent's help. He could only pass the ball to Gardner, who was on the top arc. Gardner returned the ball with another hand before Dan Dicko came over. Arenas.

Arenas made a jumper after receiving the ball. Although Blake tried his best to jump up to block, what he touched was not a basketball but Arenas' hand.

"drop……"

The referee's whistle blew and the ball was scored.

Mark Foyou shook his head and couldn't help sighing in his heart. The gap in strength can't be made up, and the situation of the game is getting worse and worse.

Arenas stood at the free throw line and found that Black had not been replaced. If I remember correctly, Black had already fouled three times.

Is the other coach's substitution key broken?
His eyes looked at Mark Foyou, who was expressionless on the sidelines, and then at Lu Yu, who was sitting on the sidelines without saying a word. He thought maybe Gonzaga was really empty.

Free throw hit.

14:4
The score between the two sides was once again pulled apart.

John couldn't sit still, he decided to call a timeout and scolded the players.

So a classic scene in NCAA history appeared in the TV lens.

"What did you hit with a piece of shit in your head?"

"This is a special game, and it's being broadcast live in the United States. If you play like this, what's the use of me being a coach!"

"It's a fucking pain to watch you guys play."

Blake and the others looked at Lu Yu who was sitting on the bench in shame. Lu Yu did not look as ugly as Mark Foyou, and his faint smile was still on his lips.

He suddenly felt that Mark Foyou, who has always been gentle and refined, was scolding people a bit like Gong Xiaobin, the free and easy king.

However, unlike Gong Xiaobin, the players who were scolded by Mark Foyou walked on the court with murderous aura in their eyes.
