  Chapter 696 Singles

  On the court, Xiao Yao dribbled the ball and stood at the top of the arc of the three-point line, Zhuo Zhiyuan stood within the three-point line one step away from Xiao Yao, lowered his center of gravity, and stared at Xiao Yao seriously. The other eight players of the two teams stood in pairs at the outer corners of the three-point line and 45 degrees on both sides of the court, giving way to the front of the basket and the entire three-point line.

Since    is a singles, obviously no teammates will come up to cover and cooperate. Xiao Yao was dribbling the ball. Once he held the ball and made a shot and the opponent blocked it, he could no longer dribble, so he did not make a fake shot from outside the three-point line, but dropped his weight. He made a crotch dribble, trying to drive Zhuo Zhiyuan's defensive center of gravity by shaking his shoulders.

  After Xiao Yao handed the basketball from the crotch to his left hand, his right shoulder sank as before, making a breakthrough to his left hand, and Zhuo Zhiyuan's center of gravity shifted to Xiao Yao's left. However, Xiao Yao raised the left hand slightly after catching the ball, but quickly shot the basketball to the front right in front of him, then moved the center of gravity to the right, caught the bounced basketball with his right hand, and then shot to his right front. , He broke through to his right hand.

  Zhuo Zhiyuan also quickly adjusted his center of gravity, half-turned around and rushed to the basket with Xiao Yao.

  Through this change of direction breakthrough, Xiao Yao successfully shook off Zhuo Zhiyuan's half of his position, but it was not completely free from Zhuo Zhiyuan's defense. If you go straight to the basket and make a layup, Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was originally on the inside, may stick up and interfere with him. Although Xiao Yao's position and starting speed are superior, he is not afraid of physical confrontation with Zhuo Zhiyuan, but he did not rush to the basket, but rushed straight to the bottom line.

  When he was only one step away from the bottom line, Xiao Yao jumped up with the ball, and half-turned in the air to face the hoop, his arms were erected upright, and he lifted the basketball up with a shooting gesture.

  Zhuo Zhiyuan saw that Xiao Yao had made a shooting posture, he immediately kicked up on the ground, raised his right hand cover to the basketball held by Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao half-turned to shoot after a sudden stop. Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was half of his position behind, kicked directly onto the ground during the chase, so his defensive position was not in front of Xiao Yao, but flew from the side. Defensive. Xiao Yao, who was in the air, did not face Zhuo Zhiyuan with the palm of his hand to make a shot. Instead, he used his waist and abdomen in the air to exert his ability to stay in the air. At the same time, he recovered the action that seemed to be pushed forward. After closing, he made a pull-bar movement, and when Zhuo Zhiyuan's palm left his face to fall, he threw the basketball in his hand.

  "Good shot!" The basketball fell accurately into the center of the basket, and there was a lot of applause and cheers.

   "Trolley shots, you can also do dodge movements in the air, this waist and abdomen strength is really not covered!" Guo Qi smiled and ran over and slapped Xiao Yao, and patted Xiao Yao's abdomen again.

   "It's okay!" Yu Junzhe, who served here, comforted Zhuo Zhiyuan, "Just give him one back! We will also give you a chance to single him."

Yu Junzhe passed the ball to Zhuo Zhiyuan at the top of the outside three-point arc after the dribble passed halftime. Then he shook his hand like Guo Qi and shouted: "Open the singles, let's Xiaoyao give back to Xiaoyao. !"

Just now, Xiao Yao’s successful singles with Zhuo Zhiyuan scored. Everyone felt that it would be fair to let Zhuo Zhiyuan also single Xiao Yao once. Therefore, after listening to Yu Junzhe’s words, everyone tacitly pulled outside the three-point line on both sides. It also made room for Zhuo Zhiyuan's singles Xiao Yao.

   "Xiao Yao's ball is so beautiful! Oh, this is the red team who is not convinced, and wants Zhuo Zhiyuan to return Xiao Yao!" He Jian said excitedly, "Interesting!"

"Well," Zhou Qun nodded and laughed, "Well, everyone is very cooperative in the exhibition game, which also means that everyone has played. This also shows that the two teams are completely on the bar, whether it is the overall level of the team or the individual level. Yes, it seems that Xiao Yao and Zhuo Zhiyuan are the personal representatives selected by the players of the two teams."

  Zhuo Zhiyuan received the pass from Yu Junzhe at the top of the arc of the three-point line. Without dribbling, he has an advantage over Xiao Yao. He didn't waste this advantage either. After everyone opened up and Xiao Yao lowered his weight to make a defensive posture, Zhuo Zhiyuan, who stood outside the three-point line, directly lifted the basketball to make a long-range three-pointer.

   Xiao Yao didn't dare to be careless, he immediately took a step forward, and at the same time raised his right hand, making a defensive action, but Xiao Yao kept an eye on him, and did not jump up to block the shot.

  Sure enough, when Xiao Yao stepped forward, Zhuo Zhiyuan also immediately retracted the basketball he had lifted. He shot the basketball with his left hand, and the dribble broke through his left hand.

Xiao Yao defended Zhuo Zhiyuan’s hand, so when defending, he moved forward with his left foot and his whole body was slightly tilted to the right. At the same time, he raised his right hand, and his left hand swayed to the left, forcing his dominant hand to be the right hand but the left hand can also dribble. Zhuo Zhiyuan walks on the unused left side. So when Zhuo Zhiyuan moved, Xiao Yao quickly turned around and stuck it up.

   Zhuo Zhiyuan, who started first, has a certain advantage in speed, and wants to squeeze Xiao Yao's defense with inertia. However, Xiao Yao’s physical strength is only stronger than him, so Zhuo Zhiyuan not only didn’t squeeze Xiao Yao away, but was squeezed into the basket by Xiao Yao more and more away from the route to the basket. .

After squeezing Xiao Yao into the attacking distance, Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was dribbling with his left hand, used his right shoulder to push against Xiao Yao again. Then, with the rebounding force from Xiao Yao's chest, he jumped a step to his left hand and pulled away. At the distance from Xiao Yao, while holding the ball with his left hand, his right hand supported the back of the basketball, his hands with very smooth movements lifted the basketball up, making a step back and shooting sideways.

   Xiao Yao immediately caught up with a step, raised his arm and jumped up the lid. But Zhuo Zhiyuan's feet just turned upside down, did not jump off the floor, and the basketball he held in his hands was quickly put down.

When Xiao Yao saw it, he immediately used his waist and abdomen to stop his tendency to jump up and quickly fell to the ground. At the same time, he also stopped his forward thrust to avoid hitting Zhuo Zhiyuan's body. , Causing a foul.

  Zhuo Zhiyuan saw that Xiao Yao was fooled into jumping by his shooting fake. When Xiao Yao fell, he jumped up in time and shot the basketball very steadily. After landing, Xiao Yao quickly bounced up again, and this time both the speed and the height of the jump were much better than the first time. When the basketball parabola was still rising, Xiao Yao raised his right hand. Just a big hat fanned the basketball in the air.

   "Wow~" Seeing that Xiao Yao gave Zhuo Zhiyuan a big hat, the audience exclaimed in excitement.

This time Zhuo Zhiyuan shot from the left side of the court. Although Xiao Yao faced Zhuo Zhiyuan's defense, Zhuo Zhiyuan's basketball had already shot when he jumped to block the second time. Xiao Yao's right hand was not swung forward, but straightened. It was shot from right to left, so the fanned basketball did not fly off the court, but flew toward the opponent's half.

Whether it’s offense or defense, Guo Qi is the one who has the most confidence in Xiao Yao among everyone on the court. After Zhuo Zhiyuan’s shot was slapped to the opponent’s half by Xiao Yao, Guo Qi was also everyone on the court. The fastest response in the middle of the game, when others were still surprised by Xiao Yao’s hot pot hat, Guo Qi quickly started to rush out from Yu Junzhe, caught the basketball near the center line, and rushed with the ball. To the opponent halftime.

  After Xiao Yao landed, he immediately rushed towards the opponent's halftime, but Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was blocked from shooting, watched Xiao Yao ran away, and immediately rushed along with him. Xiao Yao and Zhuo Zhiyuan moved, and the others reacted, but the others did not rush to the red team's halftime like the two of them, because Guo Qi was already very far away from the others at this time, and Guo Qi reached the three-pointer. When they were on the line, none of them, including Xiao Yao and Zhuo Zhiyuan, had passed halftime. If Guo Qi has a quick layup or dunk, no one else can catch up.

  Zhuo Zhiyuan also understood this, but he still stubbornly chased Xiao Yao towards his own half. If he doesn't chase, then Guo Qi may give up the chance of scoring this fast break to Xiao Yao who is keeping up. He can accept Guo Qi's fast break score, but he doesn't want to see Xiao Yao score again.

   And Zhuo Zhiyuan didn't seem to be doing useless work with Xiao Yao this time, because Guo Qi didn't rush to the basket to layup or dunk, but suddenly stopped when he dribbled to beyond the three-point line. And after he stopped, he didn't lift the basketball to shoot a long three-pointer. Instead, he held the basketball in his hand and looked back at Xiao Yao who was following.

   Xiao Yao saw that Guo Qi stopped outside the three-point line and turned his head to look at him, he nodded slightly, and rushed to the basket without any reduction in speed.

   Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was next to Xiao Yao, didn't let Xiao Yao go to guard against Guo Qi who was holding the ball outside the three-point line. He still followed Xiao Yao and rushed to his own basket.

   Seeing Xiao Yao stepped into the third division, Guo Qi threw the basketball toward the hoop with both hands, and then stood still and entered the state of the theater, without the slightest intention of going in to meet Xiao Yao or grab a rebound.

  Xiao Yao and Zhuo Zhiyuan’s eyes were chasing the basketball in the air. After stepping into the three-second zone, the two who made the judgment jumped up at the same time. Xiao Yao was half a step ahead of Zhuo Zhiyuan and jumped higher than Zhuo Zhiyuan, so Xiao Yao jumped in the air to catch the basketball falling from the air before Zhuo Zhiyuan. However, Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was a little behind half a step, could only slap Xiao Yao's left arm unwillingly.

After jumping up, Xiao Yao stretched out his hands to catch the ball. After being slapped in the air by Zhuo Zhiyuan, Xiao Yao's outstretched left arm was hit, but the basketball did not lose control and flew out. At this time, Xiao Yao’s right hand is still resting on the back of the basketball, and he is less than an arm’s distance from the hoop, and the height of his wrist has already exceeded the height of the hoop, so Xiao Yao moved forward with his right hand. Squeeze and smash the basketball in his hand into the hoop in front of you!

  "Boom~" There was a loud noise after the basketball was smashed into the hoop, but the arena fell into silence.

  As early as Guo Qi passed the ball and Xiao Yao and Zhuo Zhiyuan jumped high in the air, the audience couldn't help but stand up. When Xiao Yao dunked the basketball into the hoop, all the audience on the scene stared in disbelief at the figure falling from the hoop on the court, and forgot to speak with her mouth wide open.

   "Beep~" A harsh whistle sounded in a quiet environment. Then the head referee on duty faced the technical table and made the red team's No. 7 thugs foul, and the blue team's No. 23 two points were effective and a penalty kick was added.

   "Wow~"

   "Awesome!"

  Seeing the referee's action, the audience at the scene recovered and let out a deafening scream. This is the highest decibel scream since the start of the game, and its momentum is almost to lift the ceiling of the arena.

  Since the start of the game, there have been several dunks, but the aerial relay dunk is the third. And unlike the first two open dunks of Bielsa and Guo Qi, when the first two open dunks were completed without defense, this dunk of Xiao Yao was not only an amateur star player. The first dunk completed, his empty dunk was still completed with Zhuo Zhiyuan's chasing and thugs fouling. The difficulty is obviously higher than the empty dunk completed by the first two professional players, no wonder The audience at the scene will be so boiling.

  "Xiao Yao, this kid, lie to me again!" Xu Yue, who stayed in the blue team halftime, looked at Xiao Yao who walked to the free throw line amidst the screams of the audience, and turned to Chen Nuo next to him.

   "Huh?" Chen Nuo looked at Xu Yue in confusion, "Why did he lie to you again?"

   "You said that he can make this kind of action, and his physical fitness can beat me, and he even pitifully told me to let me go. Isn't this deliberately deceiving me?" Xu Yue said with a curled mouth.

   "Ha!" Chen Nuo smiled happily, "People are giving you the face of a professional player. Are you still angry with him for this?"

   "I didn't say that I was angry because of this, but that he lied to me again!" Xu Yue emphasized.

  When Xu Yue and Chen Nuo were chatting, Xiao Yao had already steadily made the extra free throw. After Xiao Yao's free throw was over, the blue team coach Zhao Fengnian called a timeout. Xu Yue and Chen Nuo also ended the chat, and each returned to their team's bench.

During the pause, the large screen above the stadium and the TV broadcast replayed the slow motion footage of the three **** just now, which caused the audience to scream again and again, and the two commentators kept sighing. .

"After watching these few goals, I think Xiao Yao is not much worse than a professional player." He Jian said in disbelief. "The nine assists and one steal in the first half have already reflected Xiao Yao's golf quotient and overall outlook. , The technical and physical qualities that he has shown in these few goals seem to be no worse than our professional players."

"Yeah," Zhou Qun also nodded with a look of disbelief, "Whether it is the ability to stay in the air when shooting with a tie rod, the continuous bounce speed when defensive, or the explosive power when receiving a dunk in the air, they are indeed inferior to our professional players. It's bad. Before the game, some media said that this game was three semi-professional players versus three semi-professional players. Now it seems that four professional players are playing three semi-professional players."

On the   Blue team bench, Guo Qi smiled triumphantly and said to Chen Nuo who came back: "How about this secret weapon? Isn't it more exciting than the empty dunk he passed to me? Are you surprised or surprised?"

   "Look at you like that, you didn't buckle!" Chen Nuo rolled his eyes.

   "But I passed it on!" Guo Qi smiled.

  Wei Zhiping pointed to Xiao Yao and said, “I didn’t expect, you guys are so powerful. Did you deliberately hide it during training?”

   "Haha~" Xiao Yao smiled awkwardly, and didn't know how to answer.

"Okay," Wei Zhiping let go of Xiao Yao, smiled and slapped his hands. After attracting the attention of all the players, he said to all the players in the team, "Since Xiao Yao has this scoring ability, we will play the game in the second half. Xiao Yao has clicked this point, do you have any questions?"

   "No problem!" The team members shook their heads. There are nine assists in the first half. Everyone has no problem with Xiao Yao's perception. There is the trolley shot and air-receiving dunk. Everyone has no doubt about Xiao Yao's strength. The arrangement of the head coach is natural. No comments.
