During the intermission, Syracuse University rest area.

Butler threw the towel to the ground.

"Jimmy." Qin Hao frowned and shouted.

Butler looked ugly, but still picked up the towel.

Qin Hao shook his head, stopped Butler's shoulders, and said, "Jimmy, we didn't play well in the first half. I know you are depressed, but the game is not over yet. Even if you want to vent, you have to hold back. Like. What you did just now will only make our team atmosphere worse and lower morale."

"I..." Butler opened his mouth and did not refute after all. He is not stupid. He knows that Qin Hao is right and understands that Qin Hao is for his own good, but he is really depressed and muttered: " I understand all of this, but this is a tournament. If you lose a game, you'll be over."

Why doesn't Qin Hao understand this?

In fact, Qin Hao can also understand Butler, after all, Butler was actually in his twenties at this time, and he was still a healthy young man, not to mention that he had always been a person with a strong desire to win.

Not just Butler, other players on the team, Holbert, Felton, Jefferson, Flathead, White, Ellis, Connold...

At this moment, all of them are very depressed, their expressions are gloomy, and the rest area of ​​Syracuse University is quiet, and the silence feels depressing.

That is to say, Qin Hao is considered two lives, otherwise he would not be much better than his teammates.

It's not that Syracuse University has encountered difficulties, nor has it been behind. They have also lost and lost a lot of games, but today is different from the past.

It used to be the regular season and playoffs of the Big East, but now, even if it is, there are 10,000 fans watching them, and FOX is facing the whole network live broadcast, and countless fans are watching this in front of the computer. The game is supporting them.

Every player at Syracuse University wants to win this game. If they win, they can enter the "Elite Eight", only one step away from the Central and Western Division championship.

But if you lose... the season is over and go home.

Therefore, the pressure faced by the players at this time is several times that of the past. Such pressure is a severe test for a group of young players in their twenties.

"Brothers." Qin Hao stood up, knowing that he had to do something to not let the depressed atmosphere continue.

The players raised their heads and looked at Qin Hao.

Coach Fox and Assistant Harry also looked at Qin Hao.

Qin Hao took a deep breath and said, "I know you all want to win, and I do. I also know what this game means to us. Since this game is so important, how can we do it before the game is over? Lost fighting spirit?"

"This is only the first half. We are behind and at a disadvantage, but I believe this will never continue in the second half."

"Along the way, the preseason, the regular season, the playoffs, and the current championship. We have encountered one opponent after another, and encountered various difficulties and ups and downs." Qin Hao said loudly: "But I am here. I have never been discouraged, let alone give up."

Hearing this, the players' eyes lit up.

Everyone's eyes are shining, their blood is boiling, the cells in their bodies are roaring, their fighting spirit is beginning to aches, and their fighting spirit is burning.

"I have never been discouraged before, I have never given up, and it is the same now." Butler stood up and said loudly, "Gan, Qin was right. This is only the first half."

Qin Hao smiled and nodded, but couldn't help but vomit in his heart, adding the word "Gan" to you, why did it sound so blind?

One by one players spoke, and morale rekindled.

Seeing this scene, Coach Fox and Assistant Harry looked at each other and smiled with satisfaction.

Morale is extremely critical at this time, the team is at a disadvantage, and the game is extremely important. Under tremendous pressure, the players' emotions can easily collapse.

Once it collapses, then there is no need to play the game.

Originally, Coach Fox was going to cheer up the players, cheer them up, and mobilize their fighting spirit. Only when the fighting spirit comes back and the morale is rekindled can they talk about other things.

But now it seems that he doesn't need to act.

"Come here, let me talk about it." Coach Fox shouted. The players gathered around. Coach Fox spread the tactical board and pointed to the inside. "First of all, we have to fight for rebounds..."

......

In a blink of an eye, the intermission ended.

The players on both sides returned to the field, both were the main lineups, Syracuse University attacked, Felton advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.

This time Felton didn't pass the ball to Qin Hao the first time, and Qin Hao didn't catch the ball, but started to move, interspersed along the inside line, got rid of the defender, and came to the right corner three-point line to receive the ball.

Upon seeing this situation, the Michigan State University player immediately pounced on Qin Hao, thinking that he was going to shoot a three-pointer.

Although other players at Syracuse University were not allowed to shoot in the first half, Qin Hao's three-pointer was still very lethal and had to be careful.

The defender rushed, but Qin Hao didn't hesitate. He still jumped up, looking straight at the basket, his wrist shook...

Huh!

The ball is scored and a three-pointer is made.

After dozens of seconds, the Michigan State offense hit the iron. Butler jumped up and collided with Yudu in the air. He smashed Yudu away and grabbed the rebound.

"Fight back!"

Syracuse University fought back.

For a time, several players rushed to the front.

In the half-court positional battle, Michigan State's tight defense and defensive Syracuse University could not breathe. But in this kind of counterattack, Michigan State was limited by the speed of movement and could not build an effective one in the first time. Defensively, I can only sigh helplessly.

Butler came to the front court and immediately passed the ball to Qin Hao, and Qin Hao passed it to Holbert. Holbert was already completely empty, adjusted slightly, took a glance at the basket, and then shot...

Huh!

The goal was another three-pointer.

Driven by Qin Hao and Butler, the morale of Syracuse University was rekindled and the fighting spirit was high. Every player tried their best. With the players' enthusiasm, Syracuse University's rebounds began to increase, steals began to increase, and counterattacks began.

Once the counterattack started, the power of Syracuse University's "running and bombing tactics" began to be revealed.

"This counterattack is too strong."

"Come here, this is Syracuse University's ‘run and bomb’, a quick counterattack, a sharp three-pointer, tusk..."

However, in a moment, Syracuse University reversed its decline. With a sharp wave of "running and bombing", they quickly chased the points, and they soon chased the difference to only 1 point.

Until Michigan State University requested a timeout, more than six minutes later in the second half, Syracuse University had quietly surpassed the score.

This is the terrible thing about "Running and Booming". Once the game is smooth, the speed of chasing points is absolutely staggering.

However, the game is not over yet...
