Chapter 1148: End the suspense

  Chapter 1148 Ending Suspense

  At the beginning of the second half, there were still many audiences talking in a low voice about Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting’s midtime performance and Xiao Yao’s proposal on the spot. But soon, everyone returned their attention to the court because of Xiao Yao's performance.

  Because the North Celebrities team competed for the ball in the opening jump, so the second and third quarters were the South Celebrities kick-off. The beginning of the second half was the beginning of the third quarter, when the Southern Celebrities kicked off. There is no need to jump the ball for the right to compete. When the Northern Celebrities play their defensive position directly in their own half, the Southern Celebrities have no chance of a fast break for the first ball in the opening quarter, so they slowly control the ball and advance to the opponent's half. war.

  The southern celebrity player who defended against Xiao Yao at the inside basket mentioned that the outside line played a pick-and-roll cooperation with his teammates with the ball, and Xiao Yao also defended it. Two players from the Southern Celebrity Team played a pick-and-roll cooperation, and Xiao Yao and his teammate who defended the opponent's ball-holding player from outside also immediately made a defense change.

Xiao Yao is an all-around player who can play from position 1 to position 5. He is not bad in terms of speed, strength, agility, and height. Among amateur players, whether it is inside or outside, most people are at a disadvantage against him. of. After Xiao Yao switched defenses with his teammates, the defender who held the ball did not have any advantage over Xiao Yao, so after the pick-and-roll, the guard of the Southern Celebrity Team immediately passed the ball to cooperate with him for the pick-and-roll. The inside teammates, let teammates go "big and small".

  After receiving the ball, the Southern Celebrity insider faced the defending Northern Celebrity outside player. He dribbled the ball to the basket with his height and weight for two steps, and jumped up and shot near the three-second zone sideline.

The outside players of the Northern Celebrities team defended the opponent's inside players. They did not have the advantage in height and weight. They lowered their center of gravity and tilted their upper body to finally block the opponent's straight to the inside. At this time, after being suppressed by the opponent, it was too late to jump Started to defend the opponent's shots.

  The inside player of the Southern Celebrity Team just took a shot from close range, and suddenly a figure flew over from the side. A raised arm appeared diagonally, knocking out the basketball he had thrown.

   "Wow~" There was a burst of exclamation from the audience.

  It turned out that after Xiao Yao saw the Southern Celebrity team’s point guard pass the ball, he followed the basketball flight path to make up for defense, and blocked the opponent's inside player's shot from the side.

   "Good shot!" He Jian on the commentator exclaimed excitedly, "Xiao Yao made up from the side to cover Wu Zhaonan's shot."

"This is Xiao Yao's second shot in this field." Zhou Qun laughed. "For this ball, Wu Zhaonan's defender was not Xiao Yao when he shot the ball. Xiao Yao came to help defend. In the first half, We hardly saw Xiao Yao going to help defend opponents who already had teammates defending. It seems that Xiao Yao played a lot more aggressively than in the first half."

"Perhaps Xiao Yao was not so active because he was thinking about midtime performances and marriage proposals in the first half." He Jian also smiled and guessed, "Now that the intermission is over, the song is also sung. The marriage proposal was also completed, there was no worries about the future, and the spirits were refreshing in the happy events, so the second half of the game became active and started to give full play."

   During the intermission, the two commentators in the live commentary booth also witnessed Xiao Yao's performance and the whole process of the live marriage proposal, and they also sent a lot of comments and emotions.

   "It makes sense," Zhou Qun nodded with a smile, "But if this is the case, the Southern Celebrities will be in trouble in the second half."

  The block that Xiao Yao caught up from the side hit the bottom of the basketball, and the basketball flew straight up, but was not hit to the audience like the last time Ge Qishuang.

  At this time, there are three people closest to the basketball. Xiao Yao and the basketball players of the Southern Celebrity Team were all falling, and the remaining Northern Celebrity outside player who had not had time to jump to defend the opponent's shot jumped up and grabbed the basketball that fell from the air.

  The outside player of the Northern Celebrity Team took the ball and did not directly throw the basketball to the opponent's half to start a long pass and fast break. Instead, he passed the basketball to Xiao Yao, who landed a little earlier and was not far away from him.

  After Xiao Yao received the ball, he immediately dribbled to the opponent's half.

  The inside player of the Southern Celebrities made his shots from a slightly inside position. When Xiao Yao blocked the opponent's shot, some Southern Celebrity players retreated and ran back to their own half. When Xiao Yao dribbled the ball through the half-court, four defensive players had already returned to his half-court. Although he has not yet fully established his defensive position, he is not a single horse Pingchuan. However, Xiao Yao didn't seem to have the intention of stopping to organize a battle of positions. After the dribble rushed to the opponent's half, he rushed directly to the opponent's inside line without any reduction.

   Seeing Xiao Yao rushing over, a player of the Southern Celebrity Team who was off the outside line immediately greeted him. Xiao Yao paused for a moment, then sank his shoulders to the left. After swaying the other party's center of gravity, he suddenly accelerated and wiped it from the other party's left side.

After    stepped into the three-point line, another striker from the Southern Celebrity team came over. Xiao Yao started with the ball, the first step went to the right, and the second step was a big stride to the left. With a European step, he passed the opposing player who made up the defense.

  At the same time as he passed the opponent's defending player, Xiao Yao had already reached the opponent's three-second zone, not far from the basket. When Xiao Yao took the second step, he kicked the ground hard and jumped high with one arm holding the basketball. At this time, there was a defensive player standing under the basket of the Southern Celebrities. Seeing Xiao Yao jumping up high with the ball, the defensive player under the basket also raised his arm and jumped up.

   Xiao Yao collided with the opponent's basketball defender in the air, but Xiao Yao was not knocked away by the opponent, and the basketball in his hand was not touched by the opponent's raised arm. With that physical contact, Xiao Yao exerted force on his waist and abdomen, paused in the air for a while, and then pressed down his arm to press the basketball in his hand into the basket.

   "Wow~" As Xiao Yao broke through and dunked, there was a burst of cheers and screams.

  Dunking is the most exciting way to score in basketball games, and it is also the most difficult way to score. Especially in amateur games, dunking is definitely more difficult to see. In this celebrity tournament, many spectators watched Xiao Yao dunk at the scene with their own eyes. After the whole half of the game, they finally saw Xiao Yao dunk with their own eyes, and these audiences were naturally extremely excited.

   "Pretty!" He Jian in the commentary was also a little excited, "We finally saw Xiao Yao's dunk!"

"It's not just a dunk," Zhou Qun also laughed excitedly. "The simple rhythm changes and shoulder-shouldered fake moves deceive the opponent's defensive player's center of gravity. A simple acceleration passed the opponent, and then a beautiful The European stepped past the second defensive player, and finally jumped up under the basket and was able to dunk the basketball even when there was a physical confrontation with the opponent in the air. Xiao Yao’s ball is really beautiful! If it is a professional game In, this ball should be selected for the top five balls!"

"It's amazing!" He Jian sighed a little. "I remember that after the charity star game that year, there were media reports that a professional basketball club of the China National Basketball Association had publicly issued a trial invitation to Xiao Yao. I believe that the Donghai team is at least not just for hype, but sincerely wants Xiao Yao to try out and try to sign Xiao Yao as a professional player. If Xiao Yao went to try out at that time, maybe it will really be now. Become an excellent professional basketball player."

"At that time, Xiao Yao was only twenty years old and could still enter the youth team training. Now he is twenty-three, not to say that it is impossible, but at this age, the possibility of transforming into a professional athlete to play professional games is very, very small. Zhou Qun said with a smile, "Moreover, Xiao Yao did not agree to the trial training at that time. Now people are even more popular in the entertainment industry. Even film and television companies have opened, and it is even more impossible to become a professional player."

   "This is really a basketball mobilization delayed by acting and singing!" He Jian laughed and teased. However, his ridicule seemed a bit regretful in his tone.

   "Who said no!" Zhou Qun smiled.

"Speaking of the game," Zhou Qun said, "Just now, after Xiao Yao broke through and there was a teammate in the open position on the outside, Xiao Yao can actually pass the ball, but he did not pass this time, but he did it. I don't know this. Does it mean that Xiao Yao wants to reduce his assists and score more points by himself. Remember that in the charity match that year, Xiao Yao didn't score a point in the first half, and 30 points in the second half. In this match, Xiao Yao scored in the first half. Four points, not too much. If the firepower in the second half is full, I don't know how many points he can score in this game?"

   "Stars playing in exhibition matches are considered amateur matches. It seems that there is no official individual scoring record." He Jian smiled, "Otherwise, I would definitely bet that he can break the record."

   "Then see if he can create a new high for his personal score in the exhibition match!" Zhou Qun said very much.

  Although Xiao Yao didn't score much in the first half, neither of them doubted Xiao Yao's scoring ability. After all, Xiao Yao's half-time score of 30 minutes in that game a few years ago was there. There were six former professional players and current professional players in that game, and the attitude of the game was much more positive than the two former professional players in this game. In terms of the strength of opponents and teammates, the game was better than this game. The more difficult to score.

  The two commentators said that Xiao Yao was going to give full play in the second half, which seemed correct.

   Xiao Yao did play a lot more actively in the second half. The running range is larger, the defense defense is more active, the sprints and full jumps are more frequent, and the blocks and dunks are also available. In the first half, the audience booed Xiao Yao because he was able to dunk on the fast break and chose to layup. In the second half, let alone the undefended dunk during the fast break, it was a positional attack. Xiao Yao Sometimes they went to the basket and forced a dunk when someone was defending. The audience was left cheering and screaming for Xiao Yao's wonderful performance on the court.

  In terms of playing time, Xiao Yao's playing time in the second half was also much longer than in the first half. Xiao Yao played less than half of the game time in the first half, and he played only about ten minutes in total. In the second half, Xiao Yao played for nearly ten minutes in the third quarter alone. In the fourth quarter, Xiao Yao still played first, and it seemed that his playing time was indispensable.

   However, the two commentators also felt that Xiao Yao would do his best to grab points in the second half, but this did not seem completely correct.

   After a breakthrough dunk in the first offense in the second half, the Southern Celebrity Team also seemed to feel that Xiao Yao wanted to score himself, and strengthened its defense against Xiao Yao a lot. When Xiao Yao was holding the ball, two people were often sent to defend or defend quickly. Although Xiao Yao also had a strong attack against the two defenders, more often, Xiao Yao would pass the ball to his teammates in the open position in time. At the same time, on defense, Xiao Yao did not switch to outside defense in order to get more chances to score fast breaks. Most of the time, he still defended the opponent's inside players on the inside, defending the frame and grabbing rebounds.

   Xiao Yao's shots and scores in the second half were indeed more than those in the first half, but overall, Xiao Yao's assists and defensive contributions are still quite a lot.

  In the fourth quarter, with more than four minutes left in the game, the Southern Celebrities called a timeout.

   Taking advantage of this timeout, the two commentators in the commentary booth counted the player data of Xiao Yao in this game.

"There are still more than four minutes in the game." He Jiandao in the commentary, "At present, the highest score of the two teams is Xiao Yao of the Northern Celebrity Team, with 19 points. In addition, Xiao Yao has twelve times Assists, thirteen rebounds, four blocks and two steals, a very comprehensive statistic, and a triple-double in advance!"

"Although I personally feel that his score in this game will exceed 30, and it is a bit difficult to create a new high in the personal exhibition match, but with this triple-double data, I think he should be relatively stable in winning the MVP of this game! "Zhou Qun said.

"Yes!" He Jian nodded. "In terms of score, the Northern Celebrities lead the Southern Celebrities by double digits. In terms of personal data, the Northern Celebrities have no data comparable to Xiao Yao. Assists and rebounds. Not to mention, in terms of scoring, the Northern Celebrity Team, except for Xiao Yao, had the highest score with only 12 points. It is seven points behind Xiao Yao and poses little threat to Xiao Yao."

"Now the game is more than four minutes away, and the Northern Celebrities team is still leading by double-digit points. If Xiao Yao is not replaced, there is basically no suspense about the outcome of this game, and the MVP candidate does not seem to have any suspense. "Zhou Qun laughed, "I don't know if the Northern Celebrity Team will take advantage of this timeout to replace Xiao Yao and leave us a little suspense!"

  Amateur games are not as good as professional games, and there are more than a dozen points in four minutes, which is more difficult to get back.

  The timeout ended, and the players from both sides returned to the court.

He Jian scanned the players from both sides and found that Xiao Yao was still on the field. He smiled: "The timeout is over. We saw that Xiao Yao is still on the field and has not been replaced. It seems that the Northern Celebrity Team intends to win and pursue the game, not at all. It means to relax. I hope the players of the Southern Celebrity Team will not give up in the next few minutes and continue to bring us wonderful performances!"

  There are more than four minutes left in the game, and the score is two digits behind. The Northern Celebrity Team left Xiao Yao on the court, it should be to further widen the point difference, end the suspense of the game, and "kill" the game.

   Xiao Yao played on the court for another two minutes, and then was replaced to rest.

  In these two minutes, Xiao Yao scored one point, one rebound, one assist and one block, keeping the score in double digits. He did end the suspense and "killed" the game. However, in these two minutes, Xiao Yao's performance, or the way he got the data, was somewhat different from before.
