Chapter 126
"Brother Qiang Niubi!"
"Damn it! And Iverson made a foul!"
"The cavalry must win!"
……
Countless fans were shocked by Zhao Qiang's wonderful mid-air change. Iverson stared at Zhao Qiang with wide eyes and nodded slightly.
Although Iverson didn't say any words of praise, his facial expression is already his highest praise!
Zhao Qiang himself was also very excited, he beat his chest and roared to the sky!
He wants to stimulate the morale of the cavalry team through this wonderful goal, and let his teammates believe that the Hoyas are not invincible!
Sure enough, all the cavalry players rushed over, bumped chests with Zhao Qiang, roared, and the morale of the whole team was high!
Coach An Zuo looked like he had rejuvenated himself, jumping and jumping, waving his fists non-stop.
Zhao Qiang walked to the free throw line and made a steady hit with the extra penalty!
8: 6!
After withstood the indiscriminate bombardment of the Hoyas, the Cavalry finally found their own rhythm and clung to the score!
Hoyas head coach John Thompson Jr. didn't hesitate and immediately called a timeout.
When the score was leading just now, there was no smile on his face, because he knew Zhao Qiang very well and knew Zhao Qiang's potential, which hadn't exploded yet.
In terms of personal ability, Zhao Qiang is indeed not as good as Iverson, but Zhao Qiang's leadership and influence on the cavalry team is definitely stronger!
Sure enough, Zhao Qiang led the team to catch up with the score through active offense and defense.
As the head coach, he must warn the Hoyas: The Cavalry are not easy to mess with, and they must show a 100% attitude!
Coach An Zuo rushed into the field, clapped high fives with every Cavalry player, and yelled: "I love you! Children, you are the best!"
When Zhao Qiang walked over, Coach An Zuo hugged Zhao Qiang tightly, patted him on the back vigorously, and said excitedly: "Qiangzi! Today is thanks to you! I thought I was going to collapse!"
"Coach, don't worry, even if we lose, we will lose standing! We must not let them collapse!"
"Good job! Good job!"
……
The fans at the scene also started to shout Zhao Qiang's name, and even some Iverson fans applauded Zhao Qiang.
Iverson sat in a chair and didn't listen to the coach at all. His competitive spirit had been aroused.
Although he knew that Zhao Qiang had some strength, but when they really fought, he found that Zhao Qiang was more terrifying than he imagined.
The timeout ends and players from both sides return to the field.
The Hoyas attack.
This time Iverson did not hold the ball, but passed the ball to small forward Graham in advance.
Zhao Qiang and Xiaode continued to double-team, and even if Iverson didn't have the ball in his hands, they still couldn't leave.
Facing the old iron, Graham made a feint, hit near the bottom line, and then took advantage of the moment when Big Ben came out to help defend, and passed the ball to center Sanders.
Sanders made a step, and just about to make a layup, Big Ben rushed up and grabbed his arm.
beep!
The referee blew his whistle and called Ben for a foul.
The two took revenge on each other.
Sanders made more free throws than Ben, and made two free throws. The score came to 10:6, and the point difference came to 4 points.
The cavalry attacked.
Zhao Qiang once again held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt. Facing Metz's defense, he used two changes of direction to throw Metz away.
Iverson still wanted to come over to help defend, but Zhao Qiang took advantage of his height and shot ahead of time!
Swish!
Hit again!
10: 8!
The Cavalry continued to bite the score and did not give the Hoyas a chance to expand the point difference.
In the next few rounds, the defensive intensity of both sides gradually increased, and the shooting percentages of Zhao Qiang and Iverson both began to decline.
Fortunately, the other cavalry players felt pretty good. When Zhao Qiang was under strict guard, others could stand up.
After more than 9 minutes in the first half, the score came to 19:16, and the Hoyas led by 3 points.
Coach An Zuo called a timeout, let the players rest for a while, and then prepared to replace the substitute lineup.
Iverson has already scored 13 points, Zhao Qiang has scored 11 points, the performances of the two are evenly matched, and both have demonstrated the core strength of the team.
However, the Cavalry has been double-teaming Iverson, while the Hoyas are single-teaming Zhao Qiang.
So from the perspective of star quality, Iverson is still better.
But Zhao Qiang is an extreme team player, all he wants is the team's victory.
He doesn't care about the post-match evaluation with Iverson, which is higher and lower.
After the timeout, both sides replaced some substitute players.
On the cavalry side, Brown and Jerome were replaced, and Xiaode and Daheilong were replaced.
Brown has become more and more important in the game recently, and the Hoya coach Thompson also attaches great importance to him.
So after the game continued, Iverson focused on marking Brown and didn't give him a chance to catch the ball.
Zhao Qiang responded according to the situation of the game. Since Brown couldn't catch the ball, he didn't pass it to him, just to let him hold Iverson.
So Zhao Qiang gestured to Brown, asking him to stand as far away as possible to create space for his teammates.
This is the cavalry, everyone can sacrifice, everyone can do the dirty work, and do the work that the data column does not reflect.
Brown obediently retreated to the corner on the right near the center line, and Iverson had to follow.
The space became larger, and the cavalry team's offense became much easier. Zhao Qiang first broke through Metz's defense and rushed to the penalty area.
Just when the opponent's inside defense came out, Zhao Qiang hit the ground and passed the ball to Da Ben.
Big Ben easily eats the cake, dunks and scores, bang!
At 19:18, the Cavalry was only 1 point behind!
The score was bitten again, and the cavalry fans on the scene cheered again!
"The cavalry must win!"
"Big Ben bulldog!"
"Brother Qiang, I love you!"
……
Iverson was in a bit of a hurry. He couldn't accept that his team was tightly held by the opponent. In the previous few games, the victory was basically determined at halftime.
The Hoyas attack.
Iverson attacked with the ball, and this time he faced the double-teaming of Zhao Qiang and Brown.
He wanted to test the tacit understanding between Brown and Zhao Qiang, so he deliberately broke through from Brown.
Brown is a little taller than Druid, but his movement speed is almost inferior, and he is not as strong as Druid, so he was rushed by Iverson.
Zhao Qiang didn't complain about Brown, and immediately went after him.
Seeing that Zhao Qiang was chasing after him, Iverson was not in a hurry, and continued to rush towards the penalty area.
The moment Zhao Qiang accelerated and was about to block in front of Iverson, Iverson made a sudden stop and jumped up at the same time, drifting his body to the bottom line, and shot!
Although Zhao Qiang had already concentrated his attention and kept up with Iverson's footsteps, Iverson's shot timing and dodging skills of drift shots were top-notch.
Swish!
Hollow hit!
Zhao Qiang sighed. He believed that no one in the NCAA, or even in the NBA, could defend Iverson one-on-one!
At 21:18, the Cavalry fell behind by another 3 points.
In the next few rounds, Iverson used Brown's defensive weakness to frequently tear through the Cavalry's defense and scored consecutively.
