  Chapter 699 MVP

After Xiao Yao made an additional free throw, the game continued.

  At this time, the blue team has also switched to man-to-man defense. The Red Team's Yu Junzhe and Evans are not on the court, Xu Yue is the point guard, Chen Nuo is defending her, and Xiao Yao is arranged to guard Zhuo Zhiyuan. After Xu Yue controlled the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, he did not hand the ball to Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was stuck in the position and then raised his hand to ask for the ball. After the breakthrough, he divided the ball and gave it to Feng Chengzhi, who was left open on the outside line. Feng Chengzhi was undefended. In the case of long shot three-pointer hit.

   Looking back, the blue team still gave the ball to Xiao Yao first when attacking. This time it was no longer Cai Yue defending Xiao Yao, but Feng Chengzhi, who was about the same height as Xiao Yao. Feng Chengzhi did not press close, but let Xiao Yao dribble the ball to the front court smoothly.

  This time, Xiao Yao did not play hard either. While dribbling the ball along the three-point line, he found that Liu Minghao had run out of an open position outside the three-second line on the weak side, and he passed the ball without hesitation. Liu Haoming immediately jumped up to shoot after receiving the ball and hit a mid-range shot.

After playing for about four minutes, Xiao Yao was replaced again to rest.

  When Xiao Yao came off the court to rest, the difference between the two teams was eight points, and the blue team was still leading. During the fourth quarter on the court, Xiao Yao made a mid-range field goal, plus the previous 2 plus 1, scored a total of five points, sent three assists, grabbed two rebounds, and gave it back. Zhao Yunfei, who broke through the red team for a layup, blocked a shot. However, in these four minutes or so, Xiao Yao made four shots and only scored two goals, and he did not have a 100% shooting percentage in the third quarter.

  With 2 minutes and 15 seconds left in the game, there was a dead ball out of bounds on the court. At this time, the difference between the two teams is in single digits, and there is still suspense about the outcome. Both teams took advantage of the opportunity of this dead ball to make personnel adjustments and sent the strongest lineup for the final battle, and Xiao Yao also played again.

  After the strongest lineup of the two teams came out, the situation on the field became a feverish state. The red team did not conduct targeted defense against Xiao Yao, but played a full-court press. The red team played a full-court press, and the offensive and defensive conversion speed on the court rose to a level. The number of positional battles between the two sides has decreased, and the number of fast breaks has also increased significantly.

  In the first minute and a half, Xiao Yao didn't score, but again sent out two assists, grabbed two rebounds, and dedicated a steal and a block for a high-altitude ball interception.

  After a period of full-court press tactics, the red team also got close to some points. But with 35 seconds left before the end of the game, the red team was still 3 points behind the blue team. At this time, it was the blue team's possession of the ball, and it was at this last moment that they let go of the foul tactics.

  The so-called foul tactics refer to the fact that the team behind in a basketball game fouls the opponent's ball-holding player in advance and sends the opponent two free throws when there is little time left in the game. If the free throw player hits the second free throw, the ball will automatically come to the trailing side. If the free throw player misses the second free throw, the defensive player also has an advantage in rebounding position, and the trailing side can get the ball to start the offense. If the free throw player makes two free throws, the trailing side can also recover a point by hitting a three-pointer in the offense. If the free throw player misses a penalty, the lagging team can recover more points.

  As the game is about to end, the red team has committed more than four fouls in this section. As long as the foul is committed, the blue team will free throws, which also provides conditions for them to conduct foul tactics.

  And the blue team's foul tactics against the red team seem to have been mentally prepared. When the red team played a full-court press before, the ball was driven by Guo Qi, who was tall and skilled in handling the ball, but when there were 35 seconds left at the end of the game, Guo Qi took the initiative to go outside the line. Served and passed the ball to Xiao Yao who came back to catch it at halftime.

Xiao Yao ran to the bottom line at a high speed, throwing away Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was defending behind him, and received Guo Qi's pass, but before his arm was raised, Zhuo Zhiyuan stretched out his hand from behind Xiao Yao. , Slapped Xiao Yao on the arm.

  "Beep~" The referee unsurprisingly whistled Zhuo Zhiyuan's foul and signaled to Xiao Yao of the blue team to get two free throws.

  At this time, Xiao Yao didn't use the funny end-urinal free throw method, but used conventional shooting techniques to make free throws.

   Xiao Yao made two free throws steadily, and then quickly retreated with other teammates.

  The leading blue team did not play a full-court press. Instead, they all retreated to their own three-point line, spreading out and standing up in a defensive formation. The red team’s foul tactic is most likely to shoot three-pointers, so the five people on the blue team are basically evenly distributed to five points on the three-point line, all standing on the outside line, no one standing to the basket to defend the inside line. .

  Red team's Jiang Qiao picked up the basketball and went outside the bottom line and quickly passed the ball to Yu Junzhe who ran near the center line. Yu Junzhe immediately gave the ball to Xu Yue at the top of the arc of the three-point line. Facing Chen Nuo's close defense with a penetration shot, Xu Yue dribbled the ball towards Evans along the three-point line. Evans immediately nudged Bielsa in front of him and ran over to pick Xu Yue. Evans and Xu Yue made a cross-run and took the basketball from Xu Yue from behind Xu Yue. With Xu Yue's screen, he jumped for a three-pointer half a step away from the three-point line. Shot.

  When Xiao Yao saw Evans making a shot, he immediately turned around and ran to the basket to protect the rebound. Evans' long-range three-pointer hit the inner edge of the basket. After bounced, it did not fall into the center of the basket, but fell from the outside of the basket. Xiao Yao got behind Zhuo Zhiyuan, who had followed in to grab an offensive rebound, and jumped up to pick off this key rebound. Zhuo Zhiyuan jumped up with Xiao Yao, but because Xiao Yao was stuck in a more favorable position, he could not grab the offensive rebound behind Xiao Yao, so after landing, Zhuo Zhiyuan slapped another slap without hesitation. It hit Xiao Yao's arm.

  "Beep~" The referee's whistle sounded, calling Zhuo Zhiyuan's thugs foul, and also made an exit gesture to Zhuo Zhiyuan. It turned out that Zhuo Zhiyuan had already got his sixth foul at this time and was sent off.

After the red team replaced Shi Jingsheng, Xiao Yao walked to the opponent's half to make a free throw.

  This time, Xiao Yao made two free throws again, and the blue team's lead extended to seven points. With about twenty seconds left in the game, the blue team can basically be regarded as the victory set.

  But at this time, the red team still did not give up. Xu Yue kicked off the ball to Yu Junzhe. After Yu Junzhe quickly dribbled the ball to the front court, he did not stop or pass the ball to Evans. Instead, he dribbled to the basket of the blue team.

  Since Yu Junzhe still has to play, Guo Qi did not give up defense, and followed Yu Junzhe into the basket. And Bilsa also turned and ran to the basket to help defend and protect the rebounds.

  After Yu Junzhe rushed into the three-second zone, he started to layup with the ball. Although Guo Qi jumped up, but did not fully defend. He didn't want to foul the opponent to give the opponent free throws at this time, and he also felt that it didn't matter much for the red team to get two points at this time. But after Yu Junzhe jumped into the air, he did not make a layup. Instead, he threw the basketball in the air to Evans, who was standing outside the three-point line.

  "Fuck me!" Guo Qi looked down the basketball and found that Evans was no longer defending, so she couldn't help cursing in her heart. If Evans hits a three-pointer at this time, it is uncertain whether the red team will rekindle hope and continue to use foul tactics.

  However, before the basketball flew into Evans's hands, a hand was suddenly stretched out on the basketball's flight path and the ball was cut off.

  It turned out that Xiao Yao saw Yu Junzhe break through for a layup, and when Bilsa followed up to the basket, he moved quietly to Evans. At this time, Yu Junzhe's two-pointer is of no use. He wants to get two points and let him take it as much as possible. The red team's most accurate three-pointer is Evans. Seeing Bielsa leave Evans to go to the basket, Xiao Yao is ready to go to defend Evans. As a result, before he ran to Evans, the basketball flew past him, and he responded so quickly that he broke the ball easily.

  The ball was originally an offense by the red team. At this moment, no one was defensively against Xiao Yao. After stealing the ball, Xiao Yao immediately dribbled to the opponent's half.

   "Deduct one! Deduct one!" At this time, there was no one in the red team's half. Seeing Xiao Yao steal the ball and rush to the empty red team half, many spectators shouted in excitement.

Xiao Yao, who stole the ball and counterattack, looked back and found that there was no player from the red team catching up. He dribbled the ball and stopped near the three-point line of the red team halftime. It seemed that he was about to spend the last ten seconds. bell.

   "Yu~" Seeing Xiao Yao stop, the audience who were shouting excitedly also made some boos.

   Xiao Yao smiled indifferently and waved his hands with the audience, indicating that the last ball would not be played.

   Seeing that Xiao Yao stopped playing, the red team seemed to have given up. Still no one ran back to foul Xiao Yao or try to break Xiao Yao's ball, allowing the last ten seconds to return to zero.

   "The game ended and the final score was 102 to 95. The blue team won the final victory with a seven-point advantage." He Jian announced.

"If nothing else, the MVP of this game is not in the slightest suspense." Zhou Qun looked at the statistics and said, "30 points, 15 rebounds, 15 assists, a large triple-double, and four steals. With three blocked shots, Xiao Yao's statistics are even more eye-catching than a few professional players on the field. Except for Xiao Yao, it is impossible for the MVP to be given to anyone else."

  On the court, the players of the two teams either high-five or hug each other and then returned to their respective benches. Several referees also retired with basketballs. The host at the opening took the microphone and returned to the court.

"At the end of the game, the blue team won the game with a score of 102 to 95. Let us first congratulate the coach of the blue team and all the players." The host held the microphone and pointed to the bench of the blue team. .

  Under the command of the host, the audience stood up from their seats and gave applause and cheers to the blue team. All the members of the blue team stood up from their bench seats, bowed to the audience, and waved in greeting.

   "Of course, we are also very grateful to the coaches and players of the red team, thank them and the stars of the blue team for giving us such a wonderful game." The host reached out to the red team's bench.

  After another round of applause and cheers from the audience and the members of the red team also stood up to express their gratitude to the audience, the host also brought the topic to the last item of the game tonight, which was the announcement of the MVP candidate for this game.

   "Next, it's time to announce the names of the players who won the MVP of this game." The host announced loudly, "The MVP of this game is ~ Xiao Yao!"

  "Wow~" There was a burst of cheers again at the scene, and some boos were also mixed.

"Xiao Yao scored 30 points, 15 rebounds and 15 assists in this game. He won a triple-double, as well as four steals and three blocks. He deserves the MVP of this game!" Then he said, "Below are the special guests of this game, the new vice chairman of the China Basketball Association, Chen Yang, and Ms. Zhou Fangyan, the president of our main sponsor of the game, Haiyan Video, present awards to Xiao Yao."

   Xiao Yao smiled and stood up from the bench, and walked onto the court amidst the applause and cheers of the audience. Chen Yang and a middle-aged woman in her 40s who dressed fashionably also walked into the court under the guidance of the two courtesy ladies.

Chen Yang and Zhou Fangyan rejected each other a bit. Chen Yang took a bowl-shaped trophy with a base from the lady of etiquette wearing a tank top, shorts and sneakers and handed it to Xiao Yao, and Zhou Fangyan took it from the lady of etiquette. A certificate-style book was spread out and handed it to Xiao Yao.

   Xiao Yao smiled and took the things. After shaking hands with the two, he held something in each hand and raised it to the audience. There was another round of applause.

"Looking at your performance today, I regret it again." Chen Yang also clapped and whispered in Xiao Yao's ear, "When you took pictures of the men's basketball team a few years ago, I should You got into the youth team of which professional club. Maybe at this time, you can play in the professional league or even the national team."

   "Brother Yang, can you let me go?" Xiao Yao smiled bitterly, "I'm going to really play basketball, and your league theme song is gone."

   "Forget it, you didn't listen to me when you were five, and even less when you were seventeen." Chen Yang sighed and said, "Don't forget about the theme song, I'm still waiting."

   "Don't worry, I won't forget, I will definitely give it to you before the 20th!" Xiao Yao said.

  After the photographer stood over and took a group photo of the three of them, Chen Yang and Zhou Fangyan left the scene under the guidance of the hostess. Xiao Yao was left by the host and asked him to talk about his feelings about winning the MVP.

"I am honored to be able to participate in this game tonight. It is an unexpected joy to win this award. I am very happy!" Xiao Yao said simply, "Thank you for the help of the coach and teammates, thank you for the excellent performance of your opponents, and thank you for the audience. Friends for your support. Thank you, thank you all!"

   "Is this over?" the host asked.

"It's over!" Xiao Yao nodded, then shook his head and continued, "Yes, and at the end of the month, our China Basketball Professional League will start, and there will be the Women's Basketball World Championship in March next year. I hope everyone will be there. Pay more attention to our basketball league and women's national basketball team, and cheer for our basketball players!"

   "Let you say your testimony, but you did a promotion for the basketball league and the women's basketball national team?" The host was speechless.
