Entertaining Children

  Chapter 162 Recognition

  Because Xiao Yao couldn't make a shot, the offensive and defensive sides switched positions.

   Xiao Yao ran to the side of the court to pick up the flying basketball, and walked back to the inside of the arc top of the three-point line in the court. Seeing that Guo Qi had stood well beyond the three-point line, Xiao Yao threw the basketball to Guo Qi, then immediately lowered his center of gravity, opened his arms, and made a defensive posture.

  Guo Qi didn't dribble the ball immediately after receiving the ball. Instead, just like Xiao Yao, he raised the ball with both hands and made a fake shot.

  Although it was judged that Guo Qi's move was mostly a fake move, Xiao Yao still took a step forward with his left foot while raising his left hand to make a defensive movement. Xiao Yao knew that if he didn't do any action, Guo Qi's fake action might become a real shot. Although Guo Qi is not good at three-pointers, as an outside player, he is not without three-pointers. Xiao Yao dare not let him shoot freely from beyond the three-point line.

   "Huh?" This time it was Ding Feng who was watching the game and questioned, "I think Xiao Yao is clearly a right-handed player. How can he defend with the left hand?"

Although Xiao Yao has shown dribbling ability with both his left and right hands, from the two different dribbling movements of Xiao Yao's left-hand dribble breakthrough after the fake action and the right-hand dribble breakthrough after the fake action just now, the feeling of the national team’s two different dribbling movements. The players can still see that Xiao Yao's right hand should be much more proficient than his left hand. In addition, Xiao Yao used his right hand for both shots, so it can be clearly shown that Xiao Yao is a right-handed player.

"Probably because Guo Zi is a left-handed player." Before Chen Yang spoke, Xu Li next to him had already answered Ding Feng: "Xiao Yao raised his left hand to defend. It is easier for Guo Zi to break through from the right. Guo Zi is a left-handed player. Go to the left. It’s more accustomed but more difficult. It’s easier to walk to the right, but it’s not his dominant hand. Even if he breaks through, his subsequent performance will be worse than that of the left."

   "Is this calculated again?" Ding Feng looked at Xu Li.

"It's still a calculation? When defending against left-handed players, it is mainly to prevent the opponent from jumping to the left. When defending against right-handed players, it is mainly to prevent the opponent from jumping to the right. Is this common sense? It can only be said that Xiao Yao still has some understanding of Guo Zi. But it is no wonder that Guo Zi is a professional player. He also made a starter in the professional league this year. Xiao Yao has seen him play normally." Xu Li said.

  Xu Li was only partly right. Xiao Yao didn’t see many professional basketball leagues in China. He was not familiar with most of the national team members before, but since he decided to take photos of the players, he naturally had to habitually do something about his subjects. To understanding. Before coming, Xiao Yao made up a lot of information about the fifteen members of the national team and playing videos.

   Therefore, Xiao Yao has a certain understanding of Guo Qi's playing style and characteristics, but it is more than just knowing whether he is a left-handed player or a right-handed player.

  Guo Qi saw Xiao Yao step forward because of the fake action of his shooting, he quickly retracted his hands holding the ball, shot the basketball with his left hand, and bowed through his left hand.

  As a national basketball player, and he is known for his breakthrough speed, Guo Qi's breakthrough speed from the left hand side is extremely fast. Fortunately, Xiao Yao used his left foot and raised his left hand to block Guo Qi's false shooting, so the whole person was originally slightly leaning to his right. Seeing that Guo Qi was about to wipe his body and passed by, Xiao Yao, who could not keep up, slammed his chest, and slightly hit Guo Qi with his chest. Because Xiao Yao arched his upper body backwards when he was defending, his chest-out action did not exceed the so-called cylinder rule, so he was not fouled.

  Guo Qi’s advantage is its fast breakthrough speed, but there is also a disadvantage, that is, the body is relatively thin. Although compared with Xiao Yao, a non-professional player, Guo Qi's body does not suffer, but when Xiao Yao touched his chest from the side, Guo Qi's pace was disrupted, and he rushed straight to the basket. The direction is also slightly offset outwards.

   Xiao Yao took the initiative to hit Guo Qi with his chest, and because of the reaction force of the collision, he leaned back slightly. Seeing that Xiao Yao's center of gravity was unstable, Guo Qi simply deflected to the left and dribbled the ball in the direction of the collision, and then jumped out of the three-second zone to shoot.

  This is not a fake action. Xiao Yao saw it, and quickly kicked the ground with both feet at the same time, leaping toward Guo Qi, and at the same time, his right hand was also raised high, intending to block the opponent's shot.

  Guo Qi's height and wingspan are better than Xiao Yao, and the height of the jump is comparable to Xiao Yao. Because Xiao Yao's weight was unstable before reclining, he adjusted and then took off. It was a bit late compared to Guo Qi in the jumping time. In addition, his height and arm span were at a disadvantage, and his bounce was not superior to Guo Qi, so Guo Qi When he reached the highest point of his jump to shoot the basketball, Xiao Yao's right palm was only as high as the wrist of Guo Qi's shooting hand.

  The basketball flew out of Guo Qi's hands, hit the inside of the back of the basket, bounced on the inside of the front of the basket, and finally fell into the net.

   "Good shot!" There was a round of applause and cheers from the sidelines. As teammates, everyone is joking, but they still praise Guo Qi’s good performance. The moment Guo Qi broke through has obviously been disrupted by Xiao Yao, but he can directly change the breakthrough to CIC. And throw the ball in, this performance is indeed very good.

  After landing, Guo Qi heard the applause from the sidelines, and finally showed a smiling face. She clenched a fist with one hand in excitement and pounded her upwards, celebrating herself.

   Immediately after landing, Xiao Yao shook his head when he saw this, and said: "Is an amateur player like me, is it worth the excitement to score a goal?"

  "You..." The smile on Guo Qi's face instantly solidified, and then was replaced by an embarrassing expression.

   "There is really nothing to be happy about. It is right for you to win." Guo Qi closed her smiling face, straightened her face and started to walk back.

   Xiao Yao went to pick up the basketball under the rim, walked back to the three-point line, threw the basketball in his hand to Guo Qi, and bowed slightly again to make a defensive posture.

This time, Guo Qi didn’t make a fake shot after catching the ball. Instead, he held the ball in his left hand and shook it to the left, and then twisted his waist. The basketball in his left hand shot from in front of him to the right, and the right hand took the basketball bouncing off the ground. , And then took another forward shot, and the whole person rushed past Xiao Yao's left hand.

   Xiao Yao ate Guo Qi's sturdily this time. When Guo Qi held the ball in his left hand and swayed to the left, Xiao Yao reflexively moved his body's center of gravity to the right. As a result, when Guo Qi quickly twisted his waist and passed by Xiao Yao's left hand, Xiao Yao's center of gravity had not been adjusted. come back.

Although    was broken through, Xiao Yao did not give up, and followed Guo Qi to catch up. In terms of dribbling speed, Xiao Yao is much worse than Guo Qi, but if it is running without the ball, Xiao Yao and Guo Qi's speed will be about the same. Therefore, Xiao Yao, who was broken through, was not thrown away by Guo Qi, but tight. Follow closely behind. Seeing that Guo Qi picked up the basketball and took two steps, Xiao Yao, who was one position behind Guo Qi, directly jumped into the air and covered Guo Qi from behind.

   After Guo Qi broke through Xiao Yao's defense, he did not take it lightly, and had already noticed that Xiao Yao had followed him. Feeling that Xiao Yao leaped into the air behind him, Guo Qi, who had already taken two steps with the ball, had to take off, otherwise he would have violated the rules. However, since it was known that Xiao Yao had chased up and defended, Guo Qi did not follow the scheduled route to layup, which is tantamount to sending the basketball to Xiao Yao, who was already waiting in the air.

  In the second step of the layup, Guo Qi, who landed on the inside of the left foot and waist and abdomen, exerted force at the same time, abruptly changing the tendency of jumping forward to jumping to the right. Then the whole person turned ninety degrees in the air, raised the basketball with the ball in both hands, and changed the layup to a shot.

  Since Xiao Yao had already jumped up in the air, it was impossible to change direction in the air, so he could only watch his body and Guo Qi miss in the air. Although Xiao Yao could forcefully twist his waist to turn his upper body to the right in the air with good waist and abdomen strength, and at the same time, his forward arm turned to face Guo Qi, but Guo Qi jumped to the side and pulled away. The distance of ”has long surpassed the distance that Xiao Yao could cover with one arm, so Xiao Yao couldn’t play the basketball in Guo Qi's hand even with his arm swiping down.

   Guo Qi, who jumped to the side of the rim, used her waist and abdomen strength to stay in the air for a while for the sake of safety. Because Xiao Yao took off first, so naturally he also fell first. After Xiao Yao started to fall, Guo Qi took the shot and chose to hit the board. After the basketball wiped the backboard, it fell firmly into the hoop.

   was evenly divided by 2 to 2. Guo Qi did not show any excitement or pride after landing this time, but silently looked at Xiao Yao. On the surface, it seemed that Guo Qi was chasing two points easily, but he knew that Xiao Yao had already forced him to use his full strength for the two goals just now.

   "Good goal!" Compared to Guo Qi's ridicule after scoring the first goal, Xiao Yao took the initiative to compliment this time.

  Although Guo Qi made two goals before and after, Xiao Yao on the field can still feel the difference between the two goals. At the first goal, Guo Qi was obviously a little careless, Xiao Yao had successfully disrupted Guo Qi's rhythm in defense. Although Guo Qi changed to shooting according to the circumstances, it was because his pace was really overwhelming. In fact, he was not fully prepared for the shot. It was a lot of luck to make a shot. The second goal is different. Xiao Yao has done his best to defend. Whether it is a breakthrough after being shaken, or a chase afterwards, it is all within Guo Qi's expectation, and it is also to avoid being blocked and turned into a shot. His active choice, shooting timing and preparation are also much more sure than the first shot.

   "Your defense is also very good." Although I still feel a little unhappy, Guo Qi has sincerely recognized Xiao Yao's basketball level.

Guo Qi smiled slightly, and then said, "Brother Yang said that you are a Chinese photographer who knows basketball very well. I think you are not only a photographer who knows basketball very well, but you may even play basketball the best among photographers. Yes. So whether you win or lose in the end, I will cooperate with you to complete this shooting."

   "Actually, I agree with my dad. He said that I was the best basketball player in China's entertainment industry." Xiao Yao also smiled, but he was not modest at all. "But when we play, we concentrate on playing. Your leaders have agreed to take pictures. If you really cooperate, you want to take pictures. Anyway, I’m not taking pictures of me. Even if the pictures are not good, the pictures cannot be used. , A big deal, I will look for other photography projects."

   "Nani?" Guo Qi looked at Xiao Yao in surprise, "You wouldn't be taking pictures as an excuse, you just want to play ball, right?"

Xiao Yao shook his head, "That won't be enough, but the opportunity to play with a national team player is not common, and I have to cherish it. Of course, it would be better if I can help you take a good photo. But the photo is behind. The matter, now I have to enjoy the game with you, the national team player."

   "You..." Guo Qi nodded Xiao Yao with her hand. She didn't know what to say, so she simply said, "Don't talk about this, let's talk about it after the match."
