Rekindling the dream of becoming a star

Chapter 36 Full Firepower
"Don't be intimidated by the home team's momentum!" The coach's angry shout woke up all the Nan'an players.

"Play according to the original plan. Play it safe and test the waters in the first quarter to understand their playing style and strengths and weaknesses." Qian Yong advised.

"Don't think about it, just focus on the court, on the game, and ignore what's happening outside the court."

"They are not strong, you have to believe in yourself!"

"on!"

Xue Yi slapped the faces of his teammates one by one, hoping that they would wake up, but when he got to Yue Zang, he was blocked.

"I do not need."

"Of course you don't need it!" Xue Yi said with a smile.

The five starting players of Nan'an came to the center circle amid the noise.

The starting five players are as follows:
Zhang Hansheng——181CM\93KG\PG\No.4

Xue Yi——188CM\83KG\SF\No.10

Liu Ziheng——195CM\88KG\PF\No.15

Yao Qiwei——190CM\95KG\C\No.18

Yue Zang——187CM\78KG\SG\No.1

Dongsheng arranged for Yue Gang to jump the ball, and Nan'an arranged for Liu Ziheng. Looking at his slender figure, Chen Fang hinted to his teammates to be prepared for defense.

The referee has come to the center circle, holding the game ball, a Li Ning indoor game ball, which is yellowish in color, which fits the light and shadow of the sky at the moment.

That day, the sun was hanging in the west sky, and the light covered half of the east stand. The referee threw up the basketball and blew the whistle to start the game.

The red and green figures jumped high to compete for the first ball of the game and the initial offensive right in each subsequent quarter.

Both hands touched the basketball that was still flying upwards almost at the same time, and the ball tilted and fell towards Nan'an's half.

Xue Yi was quick-witted and quick-handed. He grabbed the ball with both hands and controlled the ball. He did not move, but raised his hand to signal his teammates to press down.

Fully implement the coach's instructions and play steadily from the start.

But Xue Yi didn't expect that Yue Gang, who failed the jump ball, rushed up directly, and Yang Shan on the side also double-teamed him.

Fortunately, Zhang Hansheng was behind Xue Yi. Xue Yi bent down to protect the ball, and then threw the ball to Zhang Hansheng before he was completely surrounded.

As soon as Zhang Hansheng caught the ball, Chen Fang rushed over. Relying on his size, he dribbled the ball along the sideline, but Chen Fang had already predicted his next move, deliberately fell behind half a body length, and then attacked from behind and successfully cut the ball.

After getting the ball, Chen Fang, facing the empty Nan'an backcourt, accelerated towards the basket.

Without taking small steps to adjust, he strode into the three-second zone, jumped up with both feet, looked back, and saw Yue Gang's expectant eyes. Only he knew what he could do.

He jumped up, held the ball behind his head, hooked his feet into the air, and swung with all his strength towards the orange basket.

"when!"

The basket exploded, and the splashing white net leaped on the surface of the frame like waves.

"what!!!"

The stands with 5,000 people exploded in an instant like a lit powder keg.

Especially the students in the Nan'an half of the east and west stands, they saw a real flying person.

The shorter you are, the more intuitive the feeling of flying is. It is no exaggeration to describe Chen Fang, who is 177cm tall, as if he is flying.

Nearly half of the students were so shocked that they couldn't help but stand up when Chen Fang scored with a Rose-style slam dunk.

When Chen Fang landed, he was greeted with cheers like a landslide and tsunami, as well as the excited face of Yue Gang who rushed over.

"I knew you were going to do something big." Yue Gang shouted.

Chen Fang pushed Yue Gang away and said, "Return to defense, what are you excited about?"

In the stands, students from Class 12 danced the most happily. Wang Zhen shouted to students from nearby classes, "This is my brother. His name is Chen Fang!"

The sports department at the highest point was talking about it. Xu Yi stuck out his tongue and shook his head: "This physical fitness is explosive."

Compared to the madness at Dongsheng's home court, the Nan'an bench seemed very quiet. Qian Yong didn't even stand up and just sat on the chair.

The coach's calmness also infected the others. Xue Yi went to serve the ball from the baseline and passed it to Zhang Hansheng while comforting him: "This is just the beginning."

Before reaching the center line, Chen Fang came up to him. This time, Zhang Hansheng dribbled sideways to get close to him and pushed him forward.

The strength and size of the two men were very different. Chen Fang did not use his full strength, but just put his hands on his waist and wrapped them around him.

Yue Zang came to receive the ball and passed it, but was immediately double-teamed by Xue Chong and Yang Shan.

Yue Zang had already seen Xue Yi's empty space and passed the ball over with a flick of his hand.

At this moment, Dongsheng's inside line was empty, Xue Yi took the ball and rushed in, but Yue Gang rushed out diagonally to make up for him.

In the confrontation, Xue Yi scored by hitting the rebound.

As soon as he landed, he saw Yue Gang jumping outside the baseline with the ball and ready to kick it with his hands shaking.

Yang Shan received the ball and moved forward, passing it to Chen Fang across the center line.

Chen Fang received the ball and dribbled on the spot, and Yang Shan came over to block Zhang Hansheng for him.

At this moment, Nan'an had four players retreating and only one returned to the free throw line.

Chen Fang took a step forward and suddenly shot from two steps outside the three-point line.

"Oh!" Exclamations came from the stands. Many students did not expect Chen Fang to make a move from such a distance.

The ball hit the front of the basket and bounced toward the top. Xue Chong stepped forward to grab the rebound, but was caught by Liu Ziheng who was a step faster. However, Xue Chong immediately tangled with him.

The latter passed the ball to Yue Zang who received it.

Yue Zang took the ball and saw that the road ahead was flat, so he accelerated and rushed straight into Dongsheng's half.

Yue Gang and Wen Hui, who were lagging behind, came forward from both sides.

But Xue Yi, who was freed up on the wing, was passed the ball by Yue Zang in a very timely manner, and the latter took three steps without dribbling and put the ball into the basket.

Wen Hui, who was chasing after him, didn't hesitate at all and quickly served the ball to Yue Gang.

When Yue Gang received the ball, he looked to the front court. Yang Shan was already at the center line receiving the ball and immediately passed it over with a high pass.

Yang Shan turned around and rushed forward after receiving the ball. Facing the clumsy Liu Ziheng, he changed direction and went to the wing. Liu Ziheng slid to follow him, but was blocked by Xue Chong's screen.

"Change defense!" Liu Ziheng shouted.

Yao Qiwei, who had just retreated to the free throw line, immediately made up for it.

Yang Shan shook his hand and slapped the ground, then passed the ball to Xue Chong who was following behind with a screen. The latter also took three steps without dribbling and put the ball into the basket.

The two sides had two rounds, and the energy was transmitted extremely quickly. The students in the stands were like watching a tennis match, with their heads shaking left and right repeatedly.

Dongsheng 4:4 Nan'an.

Nan'an head coach Qian Yong, who was sitting on the bench, couldn't sit still anymore. He felt strange from the bottom of his heart. This seemed to be a mess no matter how he looked at it.

It was known before the game that Dongsheng did not have a head coach, and the current situation also proved that Dongsheng was in a mess tactically. Nan'an served the ball, and this time, Chen Fang, Yang Shan, and Xue Chong simply did not retreat and went straight to the ball.

"Give it to me!" Xue Yi shouted as he ran back.

Yao Qiwei was forced to hold the ball high and wanted to pass it to the tall Liu Ziheng, but Xue Chong entangled him. He hesitated, and then saw captain Xue Yi coming back to support. Fearing a half-time violation of 8 seconds, he immediately threw the ball with both hands.

But Yue Gang, who had caught up with them, had already pounced out, and the two of them touched the basketball almost at the same time.

The basketball fell to the ground. Yue Gang, who was more prepared, jumped to the ground faster and hugged the ball.

Chen Fang had already run over to support. He didn't shout, but went straight to the two people who were entangled with each other. He almost snatched the ball from the arms of Yue Gang who was lying on the ground.

Dribble the ball and break inside.

Yue Zang had already caught up with him. He was extremely fast and caught up with Chen Fang in just a few steps.

Chen Fang saw a green shadow approaching quickly from the corner of his eye. He stepped sideways to press the ball, and when Yue Zang had already stretched out his hand to touch him, he turned half a turn and shifted Yue Zang's center of gravity.

When Yue Zang thought that Chen Fang was going to break through and slide to follow him, he saw Chen Fang turn back again, facing the basket and jumping up with the ball.

It was actually shooting!

He reached out to block it, but Chen Fang jumped very high, and Yue Zang's hand could only reach his chin.

"It's in!" Cheers came from the stands.

Watching the ball go through the net, Yue Zang was a little dazed.

"You are too naive!" Chen Fang shook his head and backed away.

This is a technical move!
If the dunk just now made Qian Yong feel that No. 21 had good physical fitness, then this three-point jump shot really shocked him.

Really so powerful?

Countless questions swirled in Qian Yong's mind.

Nan'an served the ball again. At this moment, three Dongsheng players were in his half, leaving only two in the backcourt. This formation was already very obvious.

My goodness, who are you looking down on?

"Zhang Hansheng!" Qian Yong stood up and made a sudden gesture.

Zhang Hansheng, who had the ball, pushed forward at full speed. Yang Shan, who had been waiting for a long time, chased after him, but the opponent was too strong and he could not get close to him at all. Instead, he bounced out after the collision.

Zhang Hansheng had no time to catch his breath after crossing the midline when he heard his teammates shouting, "Behind!"

He was quick and immediately grabbed the ball.

Chen Fang's figure passed by him.

Just a little bit more! Zhang Hansheng's forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Before he had time to rejoice, Yang Shan, who had caught up with him, and Chen Fang, who had braked and come back, surrounded him.

Yue Zang was about to go and meet the ball, but before he arrived, he saw Chen Fang had already taken the ball out of Zhang Hansheng's arms.

How is this possible? Yue Zang was extremely surprised. He reacted very quickly. When he saw Chen Fang dribbling the ball, he turned around and chased after him.

Chen Fang threw the ball forward, Yue Zang kept pace with him, and the cheers from the stands reached full decibels.

The two men stepped into the three-point line almost at the same time. Chen Fang was still dribbling the ball, but his speed had not decreased, which made Yue Zang unable to judge his intentions.

Is it a layup or a pass?

At this moment, Chen Fang suddenly pushed off the ground and jumped up on one foot. He slowly lifted the basketball and sent it towards the basket.

You're bullying me too much! Just you?

Yue Zang's rage was instantly ignited. He leaped forward with all his might, raised his right hand high, and was ready to give the No. 21 a bloody block.

His raised right hand missed the target, and Chen Fang pulled the ball into his arms, avoiding the fatal blow.

The next moment, the two bodies collided in the air. Because they were both moving forward and had the same inertia, this collision caused Chen Fang to fall forward even faster.

Chen Fang was waiting for this moment. When he felt his back was completely covered, he let out a light breath, struggled to take the basketball that he had just retracted into his arms out with his left hand, looked at the basket that was already above his head, and made a hook shot based on his feeling.

beep!
The whistle suddenly sounded, and the two men fell to the ground almost at the same time, sitting on the ground, and the basketball just fell from the basket and fell in front of each other.

Dudu!

The linesman who caught up made a gesture indicating that the goal was valid.

2+1.

"What a great shot!" All the students in the stands clapped and cheered.

Yang Shan ran over and pulled Chen Fang up, with a look of admiration on his face: "This pull-up bar is invincible!"

Chen Fang didn't say anything, but just smiled at Yue Zang who was sitting on the ground, and then made a goodbye gesture.

When Chen Fang made the free throw, Qian Yong finally called for a timeout.

Dongsheng 10:4 Nan'an.

Chen Fang scored 8 points in the first three minutes of the game, showing his killer qualities.

In the stands, Class 12 cheered loudly. Even if the head teacher Zhang Deming was sitting there, it was useless. Wang Zhen, Liu Jun, and Zhen Xin formed a group and shouted, "Chen Fang, Chen Fang, ride the wind and waves. Chen Fang, Chen Fang, overturn the rivers and seas!"

Zhang Deming also found it incredible that this young man's brilliance on the court was as dazzling as the sun.

I got to know this young man again.

That’s great! He has become smart in his studies and is performing well on the court. Zhang Deming has to say that at this moment, he likes this child so much.

The row behind the Dongsheng bench, all the boys from the second team became fans. Lou Qing asked Bai Long inappropriately: "Your brother is just like that."

Bai Long was stunned for a moment, then pushed Lou Qing down angrily.

"They are different!"

The starting player returned to the bench and sat on a chair to drink water, but Chen Fang still wanted to seize this time to review the game.

"Nan'an will definitely have to protect their backcourt serve. There will be a lot of people, so let's change our strategy."

"Mark the man across half court, defend all sides, set up breakthrough routes, and let them attack."

"Disrupt their layups and let them shoot."

"When we have the ball, we play 1 and 2. If the opponent leaves a player behind, we play 3."

"Play for another three minutes. Hu Fei, Huang Jian, you guys switch to Yang Shan and Xue Chong."

"Liu Feng, be ready at any time and follow us. If you get tired, I will let you go immediately."

beep!
The break time is here, and the noisy environment immediately rises several levels. These few minutes were so exciting that they completely aroused everyone's emotions. Now the sense of anticipation is at its maximum.

When he stood on the court again, he saw that the Nan'an players had serious expressions and almost all their eyes were focused on Chen Fang.

But Chen Fang was not afraid at all. He just went head-on on the court to see who lost confidence first.
