Super Heavy Artillery

Chapter 26: 9 not favored

  The basketball team of Shudu No. 9 Middle School has never participated in a national league. In fact, it has not even participated in the provincial competition before. The school leaders are very happy to achieve such good results this year.

   A collective, the most indispensable thing is glory. With glory, there is a sense of belonging and centripetal force. Otherwise, the collective will be very loose and not united.

   Ninth Middle School, in terms of education and teaching, it goes without saying that it resounds throughout Shuzhong and is well-known throughout the country. In terms of style, it's worse. Therefore, the school attaches great importance to the National High School Men’s Basketball League this time.

   The players who represented the Ninth Middle School, Anluo, also felt the enthusiasm and expectations from their alma mater! From the small council hall, nearly two thousand students from the whole school lined up on both sides of the avenue, cheering for them in unison!

   "Work hard, keep on improving!"

   "Work together to achieve success!"

   "Come on! Senior!"

   "Come on! Boys!"

   "Come on!"

  ……

   Slogan, come on, resounding in the sky. It was like the drums of war of the ancient soldiers when they went on the expedition, and it hit An Luo's heart.

   How many opportunities can we have in our lifetime to work hard for a collective? How many years of youth can there be that thousands of people can shout for themselves?

   An Luo was very excited and cherished. He originally thought that these games only needed to think about himself and work hard for him to gain the opportunity to enter the professional basketball world. But now he feels that he still has to work hard for the collective of Ninth Middle School and for the nearly two thousand people.

   As the bus moved further and further away from Jiuzhong, An Luo gradually calmed down. He began to think about the next game.

   In fact, he has done well enough in the city or provincial competitions. However, this is not enough for the national league. There are absolutely no generals who can qualify for the national league. A team like Fucheng Middle School may be able to find a large amount of money.

   So he has to be prepared, he has to go all out in every game.

   Fortunately, the training results in these months have been remarkable. The overall strength of the team has been greatly improved. Especially for Sun Li, Liao Ning's tactical positioning of him in the team began to change from defensive to offensive, and he displayed his ability to the greatest extent. Sun Li's scoring ability is not inferior to An Luo. And he is inside, scoring more stable. He and An Luo, one inside and one outside, the lethality is terrible.

   As for the defensive end, he can still provide a great help to the team. His bounce and mobility are excellent, and he can help Zhang Tian protect the penalty area and rebound.

  There is also that An Luo's off-the-ball moves are more and more in line with the team's tactics. Especially with the pick-and-roll cooperation between him and his teammates, he has become more and more flexible, allowing him to play the most powerful in accurate three-pointers.

   An Luo has confidence in his team. He never felt that this time he was going to play soy sauce. Moreover, he did not underestimate his opponents.

   In the past few months, Anluo has searched for information about the national high school basketball league whenever he was free. He actively understands the competition system, history, and the participating teams. As the saying goes: know yourself and your opponent, and you will never end up in battle. An Luo didn't want to play the game in a muddle.

   In previous years, the league was divided into divisions. First, the competitions in each division, and finally the top two were decided to represent the division in the national competition. This year, the system was restructured, and the provinces held their own provincial leagues. The top two teams in the province are directly qualified for the national league match, and three or four will participate in the finals to determine the final places to enter the match. Of course, some provinces and cities are too weak, and only the champion can be directly shortlisted, and the second or third place will participate in the finalists.

   The finalists were played early and ended a year ago. The three or four of Sichuan Province regrettably failed to be shortlisted. This can also reflect that the basic basketball level of Sichuan Province is still somewhat different from that of other provinces and cities.

   With their elimination, only the two teams from Jiuzhong Middle School and Fucheng Middle School, which have a population of nearly 100 million, can participate in the national league.

   More than 20 provinces and cities across the country participated in the league, and a total of 64 teams were shortlisted for the main match. In these provinces and cities, the strong ones can have three or four teams qualified for the main event, and the weaker ones like Sichuan can also have two teams, and there are not a few who are left alone.

   These sixty-four teams will be divided into eight groups to compete for the knockout places. Each team has to play one-on-one single round-robin matches with the other seven teams in the same group. Finally, the top four teams entered the knockout round.

The knockout round is cross-matching. The first place in Group A and the fourth place in Group H, the second place in Group B and the third place in Group G, the third place in Group C and the second place in Group F, and the second place in Group D. The fourth place in Group E...

When    reached the top sixteen, the opponent was determined by drawing lots. Then decide the eighth, fourth, second, and then to the final champion.

   The knockout is cruel. He is not like the group stage that can make up for it. Continue if you win, go home if you lose.

   The entire tournament will last for more than 20 days, but half of the teams will leave here in a week and go home. Then three days later, half away, another three days, half away...

  Only the champion and runner-up will stay until the last day.

   Ninth Middle School was placed in Group E. The organizer has already announced it a long time ago and encourages everyone to make targeted preparations.

   For them, this is not a good grouping. Because there is a team called Huipu Middle School, which is a super strong team in the high school league. Last season, he also competed with Huada High School for the championship. I don't know if I can beat it, but An Luo guesses it hangs!

   But it’s not a bad group. Because other teams are not very strong, An Luo did not see their names in the strong team list anyway. It means that they can all be defeated, but the difficulty of qualifying in the Nine Middle School is not that big.

   However, in the eyes of others, Nine High School may not be able to qualify!

   Many professionals have made predictions and assessments for this league. Almost all of the nine middle schools are classified as the worst. The reasons are various, but the most talked about is that Ninth Middle School has never participated in the national league before, and has insufficient experience to adapt to it; or the offensive end of Ninth Middle School is too dependent on An Luo's performance, once the opponent locks An Luo. Point, the offensive of Ninth Middle School will be paralyzed; there is also the feeling that Ninth Middle School simply does not have the strength to enter the national league. Several key victories are due to luck.

   Even the official doesn’t recognize the Nine Middle School as strength. In their newly updated team strength ranking list, the ninth was ranked 56th. However, Fucheng Middle School, which was defeated by the Ninth Middle School in the provincial competition, ranked 24th! This is undoubtedly an irony to the people like An Luo.

   are all blind people! There is a problem with the brain case!

   This is An Luo's evaluation of these remarks and predictions. He is really very angry! He just wanted to start the game right away, and then slap these people hard with one three-pointer after another.

   What makes him even more angry is that in another official ranking, he feels that he has been insulted.

   It is a list of predictions of the strength of all players. The twenty most outstanding players in each provincial league were selected for ranking. There are a hundred names, only one in nine! That is An Luo. However, he just happened to be ranked 20th among shooting guards.

   He wouldn't believe that he killed An Luo, there are so many second positions better than himself in the high school league! He was evaluated as an NBA substitute player by the bracelet. Even if he has not yet shown his full strength, he is not comparable to this group of high school students!

   But what can be done! People just line up like that, if you don’t believe it, don’t read or listen.

"Huh! Waiting for the game, let you see how my twentieth second position scored!" He couldn't wait to play against the shooting guards ahead of him on the list. What kind of gods are these!

   Not only An Luo, other people also saw these things, and everyone was as angry as him. Everyone was suffocating in their stomachs, and it was hard to imagine how the first opponent in the group stage of the Ninth Middle School would endure what kind of disaster.

   Liao Ning has also seen it, but he is an adult after all~www.ltnovel.com~ I have seen many such things, and I don't feel any strange feelings. Strength is not what others say. If you don’t have the strength, do others say you have it? On the contrary, if you have the strength, do others say that if you don’t have it, you won’t have it?

   sure not!

   "These little **** kids are still too young! But yes, if they are all the same, then they are still called **** kids!" Liao Ning looked at the expressions of An Luo and the others, feeling very happy. But he wasn't going to enlighten him. It could be seen that these things hadn't affected An Luo's enthusiasm, so it didn't matter if they enlightened.

   On the second day, all those who participated in the national league gathered in Beijing Wukesong Stadium to hold the opening ceremony of the 2015 National High School Men’s Basketball League.

   All stand up and play the national anthem!

Leader speaking!

   Referee representative, take an oath!

   Athlete representative, take the oath!

art show.

  Leader announced the opening of the league!

   The standard process is nothing new, but the performance of the show is very good, it seems to be carefully prepared.

   After the opening ceremony, the group of Ninth Middle School rushed to Beijing Normal University non-stop. Their first game will start at 3:30 pm. In order to prevent accidents, Liao Ning decided to go there early.

   After sitting in the car for a long time, it was about eleven o'clock before they arrived at the gate of the North Division. Quickly explain their intentions to the people at the door, someone came to verify the information, and then led them to the stadium for the game.

   However, the venue for the game will not be opened at this time, and there is a staff from the organizer doing the final inspection. Liao Ning had to arrange for everyone to go to the open-air court outside to do some necessary training. After all, waiting for the warm-up time before the game is not enough.
