Basketball: I'm on the court just to pick up the bottle

The second quarter started, and neither team made personnel adjustments. When they returned to the field, the referee handed the ball to Zhou Guangchao, and the South China Tigers kicked off.

The South China Tigers attacked very quickly this time. Xu Jie dribbled the ball across halftime and played a pick-and-roll with Hamilton. He used his speed to get rid of Matsumoto Kiyoshi who was switching defenses, and then quickly went inside and scored a one-handed layup. The score became 15 to 18.

Xu Jie's attack this time caught his opponent by surprise. Everyone came back from a rest outside the field. It just happened that they were not focused enough, and the two forwards did not protect the inside line enough. Xu Jieye seized this opportunity.

After Hiroshima Sanfrecce re-served the ball, it quickly crossed the halftime. Seitaro Mizu gave the ball to Green singles Hu Xiaoxuan and gave up the nearby space.

Green dribbled the ball from the outside to break through, and Hu Xiaoxuan went straight up and reached out to cut the ball. Unfortunately, Green received the ball very quickly, turned around and passed Hu Xiaoxuan, and went inside.

Zhou Guangchao didn't know when he was already standing in the three-second zone. This position happened to be the position where Green took off for a layup.

"Beep", a whistle sounded in the field, and the referee immediately made a gesture of dribbling the ball into someone. This was a successful defense by Zhou Guangchao.

"Beautiful", even reporter Guan in the stands couldn't help but screamed.

Editor Li looked at Zhou Guangchao who got up from the ground, and couldn't help nodding: "Zhou Guangchao is so good at predicting, Lao Zhu, you guys really found a treasure."

Mr. Zhu smiled and said: "This kid is very talented, but he is too lazy."

After the penalty was awarded, the two sides exchanged the ball and the South China Tigers served and attacked.

Hamilton organized the ball on the outside and pulled Matsumoto Kiyoya out.Inside, Hu Xiaoxuan circled to the left corner through Zhou Guangchao's cover. During the run, Xu Jie also helped to block the chasing Akira Ono in the middle, helping Hu Xiaoxuan gain enough space for his shot.

Hu Xiaoxuan received the pass from Hamilton, adjusted his posture slightly, and pushed out a graceful arc with his left hand. With a bang, the ball went in. The score on the field became 18 to 18, and the two sides drew.

The score was tied as soon as the second quarter came up, and the fans who came from afar were the most excited. The fans of the South China Tigers couldn't sit still for joy. They stood up and cheered, shouting for every player Come on the name.

Sanfrecce Hiroshima responded quickly. Fukuro Kojima switched positions through Kiyoshi Matsumoto’s screen and easily scored a three-pointer from the outside facing Hamilton’s defense. The score on the field became 21 to 18. Hiroshima Sanfrecce Arrow leads again.

Kojima Fuku's shooting rate is too high. He didn't miss the first five shots. He has scored 13 points so far, more than half of the team's points.

When it was the turn of the South China Tigers to serve and attack, Li Qiao and Zhou Guangchao made a pick-and-roll switch and also faced Akira Ono's defense and made a mid-range shot. The score became 21-20. This was also Li Qiao's first time in the game One score is exactly the same as Kojima Fuku's offensive method just now.

The coach of Hiroshima Sanfrecce suddenly called a timeout and made personnel adjustments. Kojima Fuku and Mizu Kiyotaro came off the field, and their replacements were Yamamoto Takeshi and Kurosawa Ryuji.

Director Du also carried out a big rotation here. Li Qiao, Zhou Guangchao, and Hamilton all took a break and replaced them with Ah Lian, Jason, and Du Riwang, which is also the most familiar lineup for fans.

The lineup of the two teams has been playing through the second quarter. In this quarter, Green of Hiroshima Sanfrecce scored 10 points, and Kurosawa Ryuji, who replaced Fukuro Kojima, also scored 5 points.Ah Lian scored 8 points for the South China Tigers, Du Riwang made a 3-pointer, Hu Xiaoxuan and Jason each scored 2 points, and in the final 36-35, Hiroshima Sanfrecce entered the intermission with a 1-point advantage.

After watching the first half, the audience outside the court agreed that Kojima Fuku is very strong. If he stayed on the court in the second quarter, the score may also be opened at this time.

Fans of the South China Tigers also heard such discussions.But they couldn't find a reason to refute it. Fukuro Kojima's performance in the first half was so dominant that even the fans of the South China Tigers felt that it was difficult for their team to win the game.

This game was also broadcast live in China simultaneously. After the first half, the discussion posts on the basketball forums surged instantly. Most people were discussing Sanfrecco's Fukushima Kojima and his status as a second-round pick. The fans said I am full of envy. Since Mr. Yao, Ah Lian, and Sun Yue left the NBA stage, no one in China has stepped into that land for a long time. Now watching the Japanese talents next door come out in large numbers, one by one, the fans walked into the NBA stage. It's definitely not a taste in my heart.

"Hey, seeing Kojima Fuku, I thought of Xiao Ding who was not injured."

"Xiao Ding was ruined by injuries, otherwise he would have a chance to land in the NBA."

"Three players from Japan have landed in the NBA. If this continues, it will be difficult for us to break out of Asia in the future."

"Yeah, after all, there are only 2.5 places. Australia has been firmly occupying the first place since returning to this territory. In the era of Japan's talents, we have no way to get second. We can only play play-offs with European teams. .”

"There is no chance to play in the play-offs. You must know that there are no weak teams in Europe. Entering the play-offs can only be a snack for others."

"Oh, I really envy them. There will be three NBA players in the lineup."

"I hope that domestic talents will be discovered as soon as possible, otherwise the gap will only become wider in the future."

"The two plans of the Roast Duck team are said to be very good, and they may be released someday."

"Which two from Imperial University are you talking about? Aren't they defeated by Li Qiao and Zhou Guangchao?"

"Ah, that's it, then it seems that there is no joy."

In the live broadcast room of the Goose Factory Basketball Channel, the host and Director Li took advantage of the intermission to discuss.

"Director Li, the first half is over, the difference between the two sides is only one point, what do you think about the second half of the game?"

"Although the scores of the two teams were close in the first half of the game, the main reason was that Hiroshima Sanfrecce's Kojima Fuku and Mizu Kiyotaro went down to rest, and the South China Tigers had two scorers, Ah Lian and Jason, who came on the field to close the score. If Fukuro Kojima returns in the second half, it will be difficult to maintain this balanced scene."

"Director Li, what's your opinion on Kojima Fuku?"

"As a second-round pick in the NBA, Fuku Kojima was selected as a striker. This is an affirmation of strength. You must know that the NBA is now in the era of strikers."

"Then is there any hope for the South China Tigers in this match?"

"If Fuku Kojima played more in the second half, the South China Tigers should have little chance."

"Okay, thank you Director Zhang for your comments, then let's take a break now and enter the second half of the game immediately."
