Rekindling the dream of becoming a star

Chapter 149 Remember My Name

Chen Fang, who showed a hellish face at the beginning of the game, immediately became the focus of the entire Turk team, but what troubled head coach Payne was that he found that he had no matching means in his hands.

With a height of 201cm, he is a small forward, but No. 21 is a point guard. If you let Foster, who is only 188cm tall, take on the role, it will not work at all.

The coach turned his eyes to a man sitting silently in the corner of the bench.

Duane Payne.

197, a man of few words, from the Aleutian Islands, the easternmost overseas state.

He seemed to have just started playing basketball, but his excellent physique and attitude still impressed Payne.

After thinking for a moment, Payne still hadn't made up his mind. He thought it would be right to solve the offense first.

On the court, as Chen Fang broke out, Turk consciously asked Foster and Bowen to double-team and assist in defense, but this was also Chen Fang's purpose.

After attracting two players on the strong side with the ball, he passed the ball to Bobby, who faced the opponent who had just rotated and dribbled past him with light steps and went straight to the basket.

Came to the outside of the penalty area and scored with a small lob.

The Red Devils retreated quickly, but Jalen also began to play. Theo did not have much of an effect on limiting him, and the latter recovered two points with a turnaround shot.

Looking back, Chen Fang and Bud set screens, then passed the ball back to Bud, who missed his jump shot and was chased by Turk High School on a fast break.

9:7.

The Turk fans, who were stunned by Chen Fang's performance at first, became excited again, and the booing started the moment Chen Fang received the ball.

Chen Fang had a blank expression on his face. He was not afraid of the double-team after half-court because this combination was by no means an iron gate.

He found that Jalen's assist defense in the interior was very strong, and it was very difficult to score points through the interior.

Neither Murphy nor Theo are scorers, which means that I want to give more.

After calling for a screen, with the help of Murphy, Chen Fang suddenly had a physical confrontation with Foster. This detail made Wallace's eyes light up in the stands.

"Very experienced." He praised loudly.

Only an old basketball player would choose to confront when calling for a pick-and-roll, completely destroying the defender's squeeze screen. It's like hammering a nail into wood with a hammer. It's not that easy to pull it out.

With the help of this cover, Chen Fang took a step sideways and shot at will.

The ball was very fast and hit the bottom edge of the back frame and went in. The white net didn't shake at all, giving people the illusion that it didn't go in at all.

12: 7.

This is a signal to remind the other party that if you want to deal with me, it’s not that easy.

But at this moment, Payne began to let his teammates focus on offense. The scary thing about Jalen is that he can get the ball on the wing to initiate offense. His footwork repeatedly fooled Theo, causing the latter to commit two fouls.

It was the same this time. A fake shot shifted Theo's center of gravity. He took one step to the short corner and entered the inside. Facing Murphy's defense, he passed the ball to Bowen who was following up on the other side.

The latter received the ball in the corner and made a shot.

There is only a two-point gap left.

Chen Fang's expression remained unchanged. He had a good idea of what would happen in the first quarter.

Perez also made some adjustments to his lineup, replacing Theo, who had committed two fouls, with Raymond.

Bud was replaced by Tevin.

When Chen Fang saw Tevin come on the court, he understood what Perez meant.

He went to the wing and played as a forward-guard swingman.

So, Turk High School head coach Payne saw Chen take a step inside the wing, got sideways, and then received the ball facing Bowen.

A triple-threat dribble followed by a sudden pull-up jump shot.

Payne's heart tightened as he watched the ball fly into the basket.

This Chinese man has this technology?
Just as he was wondering, Bowen's response to the ball missed the goal, and the Red Devils made a comeback. Chen Fang positioned himself again, this time deeper, directly one step above the short corner. Bowen was behind him, and there were people on both sides of him. This was an extremely dangerous area.

Being at risk of triple-teaming at any time is also a fatal point for every team's defense.

Chen Fang was like a dealer. He stood still first. Because he was jumping to catch the ball, both of his feet could be used as pivot feet to move. At this moment, he did not move to see how the opponent would respond.

Is there no one to help this freckled ghost behind this?
After a pause of one second, he sensed from the corner of his eye that the other party was not moving.

Chen Fang immediately put the ball aside and gave Bowen a chance to confront him.

This position is Tatum's dessert area, because his idol Kobe likes to be here. Whenever it is a positional battle, Tatum likes to stand here.

Chen Fang has never been here, but that doesn’t mean he can’t come here, because in his previous life, he also ate, drank, defecated, urinated and slept in this place.

In August, when he was in this position, he was taught a lesson by Tatum because he was not strong enough to be crushed. But now it is December, and Chen Fang's physique and strength are no longer that of a weakling.

A shoulder contact, immediately and smoothly connected to the back-to-back shot. This standard back-to-the-basket shot will not be called an offensive foul by the referee.

Bowen felt such a huge impact that he didn't even have the strength to shout, and he couldn't stop retreating.

Chen Fang felt the opponent's strength suddenly disappear, and immediately turned around, stepped up with his right foot, and jumped up almost with both feet at the same time.

Jalen has rushed over. His screen in the restricted area is top-notch, but he is now facing Chen Fang, whose back-to-the-basket technique is also top-notch.

Chen Fang's peripheral vision had determined Jalen's position from the beginning. He was expanding outwards instead of inwards, which gave him enough space to shoot.

Jalen jumped up directly, with a standing touch of 280, a vertical jump of 70, and a running start of 86. When he jumped up, his defensive area reached a terrifying height of 360.

But Chen Fang leaned back and completely ignored the height. You jump and I'll stay in the air.

In the eyes of 21 people in the stands, the two men almost passed each other in the air, and then No. made his move.

Jalen landed in vain, but he touched nothing. When he turned around to see the result, he heard cheers from the stands and knew what had happened.

Surprisingly, the Chinese man suddenly turned to look at him and said to him: "Just a little bit more, come on!"

The rage suddenly rose three feet high.

This was the first time that Jalen was humiliated like this. It had been almost two years since he turned 15, and no one had dared to challenge him so arrogantly.

Chinese!
Are you looking for death?
The one who answered him was Chen Fang’s back.

For Chen Fang, Jaren Jackson is not yet a defensive star in the NBA in the future, so why should he be afraid?
If we don't torture them now, are we going to wait until the dog meat is served?
He is only ten centimeters taller than me.

Perez in the sidelines was applauding. Chen Fang understood his moves and started playing in Tatum's position.

Moreover, he has an advantage over Tatum, which is that he can also provide assists.

Perez didn't think he would lose from the beginning to the end because he was sure that the Chinese were very strong.

Let this game allow you to get to know each other.

The power from China!
Chen Fang began to focus on defense. He knew very well that he couldn't always rely on scoring. He needed his teammates.

There is not much pressure on the outside, and Chen Fang focuses on how to help his teammates contain Jaren Jackson.

Ninety-nine percent of basketball teams are in the same situation: you have what he doesn't, and he has what you don't.

The Red Devils don't have an excellent inside player, and Turk also lacks a super small forward. Even in the NBA, it is impossible to fill all five positions to become the strongest in the league. A good general manager will choose two All-Stars who are the top five in a certain position, and then match them with the puzzle pieces to compete for the championship. Every additional All-Star in a position doubles the fighting power.

This is the case with the Heat's Big Three, who form a crushing momentum when they are formed.

But nothing is absolute. When the Big Three were first formed, they were not yet able to work together well, and the Mavericks' King Nowitzki led the team to win the championship alone. It was precisely because Nowitzki defeated the Big Three that his historical status reached a level that did not belong to him.

This is the charm of a single core. One championship is worth several of yours. James fans can confront Kobe fans and Joe fans, but they dare not confront Nomi.

Because Nowitzki beat the Big Three with his single core. You can say that Kobe has O'Neal and Gasol around him, and Jordan has Pippen around him, but can you say that Nowitzki has old Kidd around him? Or old Terry? Do you want to bring out old Marion as well?

Nowitzki was recognized for averaging 4 points in the fourth quarter throughout the playoffs, shooting over 10.3%. According to statistics, the Mavericks' average score in the fourth quarter was only 50 points at the time, which means Nowitzki alone scored over 4% of the Mavericks' points in the fourth quarter.

On the other hand, the Heat's Big Three only averaged 4 points per game in the 14.1th quarter of the Finals. What's more frightening is that LeBron James only averaged 4 points per game in the 3th quarter.

So if they win, they'll ride on your head for the rest of your life, and you won't be able to resist. (So friends, if you want to fight with James fans, you need to find a good idol.)
Chen Fang began to look for the feeling of single-core, he needed to do more.

Soon, he found an opportunity.

Jalen moved horizontally across the restricted area and got the ball in the short corner on the right. He made a very brief triple threat, but still forced Raymond back half a step, and then quickly pulled up.

"Jalen!" a familiar voice exclaimed.

But it was too late to react. Chen Fang rushed out from the flank, took a step, and soared into the sky, kicking the rolling basketball that was still in the rising stage out like a volleyball.

"OHHHHHHHH!" The exclamations from the audience seemed unstoppable and lasted for several seconds.

Amidst exclamations, the basketball hit the railing of the stands with a bang and bounced back.

Chen Fang did not celebrate this, he just said to Jia Lun coldly: "This is my territory!"

Jalen was panting and trying to adjust his emotions. The blood cap hit his face and it was burning.

The ball was served again from the baseline, and Jalen insisted on asking for the ball under the basket. His purpose was obvious, but his teammates had to give it to him.

This is the boss's majesty.

Jalen, who received the ball, turned around and shot sideways, quickly took the ball and jumped half a step, and went around to the side of the basket. Relying on his talent of standing reach of 280 cm, he was about to shoot towards the basket that was so close to him, in response to the provocation of the Chinese.

A pair of big hands appeared on his side, and with tremendous force, like a mountain pressing down on his head, they pinned his hands and the ball to the backboard on the side of the basket.

"WOOOOO!" This time the exclamation was even louder. All the audience stood up and many of them held their heads.

The red number 21 was once again given to Jalen, a big block.

Perez jumped directly into the court and led the bench in a roar.

"That's it, well done!" Perez was excited. Chen Fang's performance seemed like a striptease on his heart. His blood boiled uncontrollably.

After landing, Chen Fang passed the ball to Bobby immediately, and then watched his teammates dunk the ball into the basket.

He turned around and saw Jalen glaring at him.

"I said, this is my territory, don't be arrogant."

"OK, I understand."

Jia Lun nodded at Chen Fang: "Now it's a personal grudge."

Chen Fang showed no fear: "It's up to you."

Jalen swore to God that he must win back today.

Excited, Jalen threw himself into the game, and his teammates began to realize that winning or losing was important, but the boss's face was more important.

In the second half, the two sides started a crazy offensive battle. Jalen, who has always been reluctant to make fast breaks and was more involved in offense and defense in the second half, rushed to the front.

Soon, he received a pass from his teammate, took a three-step layup from the free throw line, and slammed the ball into the basket.

When he landed, he roared loudly, venting his anger.

But Chen Fang didn't let him be so arrogant. In the next round, he lowered his body to take position, but Bowen pushed him desperately, but it was still useless.

Tevin made a ground pass from the wing, Chen Fang jumped forward a step, turned around after receiving the ball, and his fake shot was so realistic that Bowen immediately stood up to block it, but while in the air, he was shocked to find that No. 21 had already dribbled the ball one step inside.

With just one step, Chen Fang jumped up with the ball and slammed it into the basket in front of Jaren.

He jumped so high that everyone had to look up to see him.

"Ding!" The sound of the basket exploded, echoing throughout the stadium. Amid screams and exclamations, Chen Fang landed on the ground with his hands crossed over his chest, then chopped forward fiercely.

This was originally a move that only a power forward could perform, but Chen Fang performed it with his amazing jumping speed and on-the-spot bounce.

Even Jalen was stunned. He really didn't expect that this Chinese man's body could be so explosive. He didn't even rush, but just leaped.

This is incredible.

Turning around and walking back, teammates came forward and high-fived him. This is authority. Chen Fang's performance so far in the first quarter has shocked his teammates.

With the whistle, the first quarter ended.

As Chen Fang walked down, he looked at the score board.

24: 16.

It’s really amazing. With such an explosive performance, they actually won by 8 points.

He scored 14 points, 3 assists, 4 rebounds and 2 blocks.

Anyway, Chen Fang was not very satisfied. He started to breathe heavily. In the second quarter, he would focus on shooting from the outside.

Back on the bench, Perez took the initiative to give him a towel.

At the same time, he said to him, "Well played, take a few minutes to rest in the second quarter."

Chen Fang nodded and returned to his chair. Lu Yun came over and said, "You don't have enough strength to keep fighting like this."

"I know, but we have to play like this, otherwise the opponent won't be able to suppress us."

"Can you hold it for four quarters?"

Chen Fang smiled and said, "How do you know if you don't try? Let me see if I can still score when I have no strength left."

Looking at Chen Fang's smiling face, Lu Yun was stunned.

He suddenly understood that Chen Fang was going all out today.

"I want everyone here to remember my name!"

Chen Fang lay on the chair, and after saying this, he entered a state of deep breathing adjustment.

　I'm writing while listening to the commentary. Center Yang played well today, and combined with Zeng's performance, it was really explosive.

　　A lot of the passes were very efficient, the play was efficient, and the offense and defense transitions were fast, which is the shadow of advanced basketball.

　　However, Guam's level is not a good mirror. It cannot reflect the problems of the Chinese team. The basic skills are also average. The whole team has no strong points. They all do pick-and-roll, wild shots after handoffs, and attacking the basket.

　　I am still very happy. I enjoyed watching today’s game. I hope you will also enjoy watching the updated content today!
