"Crack, click..." The camera flashed continuously, mixed with the exclamation of some reporters, and Coach Xiangfeng's interview ended.
……
Although the other four in the main lineup are not as radiant as Li Yifan, they are definitely not a foil.Ahu and Zhang Yu are both masters of long double-doubles. Tong Haifeng's rebounding and Ahui's organizational role are obvious to all.In another location, the same spotlight flashes, the camera is carried on the shoulder, and several microphones are raised at the same time.In the room of Ah Hui and Zhang Yu, the two sat side by side on the bed.The reporters asked one question after another. From Nanyang High School to the Jiangcheng team, they did not let the two of them idle for more than ten minutes.After that, let's talk about their relationship with Li Yifan and Ah Hu, and inquire about the situation of the other two people.
Zhang Yu was somewhat nervous when facing the reporters, and most of the time, Ah Hui was there to deal with the reporters' questions.Ah Hui's calm and almost indifferent personality showed its advantages at this time, his expression was unfazed, he answered questions in a leisurely and orderly manner, following his father's hard work, he said a lot of nonsense without opinion, and he would not say a word about things that should be kept secret. leaked from the mouth.
When the reporters asked the two of them what they thought of Li Yifan.Ah Hui also hesitated for a while, and then replied: "He is a genius! I don't know how many such geniuses there are in the world, but we in Jiangcheng may not be able to find a second one!" Although it was the same tone, this At that time, Ah Hui had a very serious expression on his face.
The microphone was pointed at Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu hesitated for a while and said: "Li Yifan is a good teammate, he can make the game easier for teammates." Zhang Yu grinned happily.It's because of the joy of winning.
……
In the semi-finals, Jiangcheng played against Argentina. This team is in South America, but its strength is not inferior to those European teams. The US team has been defeated by them before.So their strength should not be underestimated.
In response, the Jiangcheng team entered the field.
The Jiangcheng team's starting players: Zhang Yu, Tong Haifeng, Ahui, Ahu, and Li Yifan.
In front of his eyes, the handsome face in the photo with a cynical smile appeared in front of him - LeBron from Argentina.
Their eyes met, and a wordless aura quietly rose between the two of them.After a long time, a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth: "LeBron?"
"Li Yifan?"
Both of them stretched out their right hands at the same time and squeezed tightly: "Let's have a showdown!"
"Let's have a showdown!"
The eyes of the two of them flashed brightly at the same time, and everything was said in silence.
Let go of your hands and return to your defensive positions.Li Yifan, who was looking at the Argentine team player, had a one-to-one correspondence with the Argentine players in yesterday's data.
Center Griffin, power forward, Steve, guard Smith, Owen, this is their main lineup.
Inside the circle, the centers of the two teams stood still at the same time, the referee whistled the whistle, the ball was jumped, and the game officially began.
Zhang Yu was the first to hit the ball, with a "snap!", the basketball bounced off the ground, did you catch it?Ah Hu grabbed the basketball with both hands, and suddenly a figure flashed in front of him, "Snap!" The basketball was confiscated in his hands--Owen!
Fast guy!
Back to defense!
Without Li Yifan shouting loudly, the Jiangcheng team quickly retreated.Zhang Yu, Tong Haifeng, Ah Hu, and Ah Hui all began to retreat as soon as the opponent got the basketball.In the blink of an eye, Jiangcheng was ready for battle.
Our speed is faster!
Meet LeBron from beyond the arc.
"Come on, let me see the strength of your genius!"
"Crack!" There was a sound of a basketball bouncing, and the ball in Irving's hand was passed to LeBron's hand in a blink of an eye.The moment he catches the ball, he turns around and changes hands between his crotches. Do you want to break through?The body moved sideways, and there was a light and clear sliding sound on the floor under his feet, and Li Yifan was already in front of him.
"Papa!" With two dribble sounds, LeBron's forward body suddenly stopped, raised his hand, and shot?
It was a shot, and he made an instant judgment, and Li Yifan jumped up at the same time.He held his hands high and blocked his shot.This ball belongs to Li Yifan!
"Whoosh!" The basketball was shot, but Li Yifan's hand, which blocked the basketball in his hand, failed to cover the basketball.what happened?Lean back and shoot!
"Shua!" The basketball lightly brushed the net and fell into the basket!
Amazing!It's LeBron.A smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and Li Yifan's mood suddenly became joyful: He really is a formidable opponent. In terms of pure attack strength, Zheng Qian and Cheng Hao might be even stronger!
"Pass the ball to Li Yifan!" Raising his right hand, Li Yifan asked for the ball from Ah Hu who was holding the ball.A Hu was slightly taken aback, nodded, and the basketball was sent to Li Yifan's hands with a "snap!"It was delivered to Li Yifan very accurately.Ahu's passing is really getting more and more accurate.
Li Yifan is here!
Also outside the three-point line.
Stopped, turned around, the basketball was exchanged between the two legs and the two hands, and the pace of the pace was erratic, spinning and wandering outside the three-point line.Li Yifan could clearly feel his movements by relying on the bodies of the two people who came into contact with him occasionally.Now, with his back to LeBron, he jumped up suddenly, turned around in the air, raised his hand to shoot, and threw a high arc almost straight into the sky and then fell from the sky.
"Shua!" The almost straight line passed through the basket, brushed the net and fell to the ground, "Pa... Pa..." bouncing on the ground.
The score is 3:3.
"Amazing!"
The game continues.Compared with the audience who were excited by the wonderful performance of the two, the players of the two teams did not have too many emotional fluctuations on the court.Players of the two teams put on offensive and defensive positions calmly dealt with the enemy in front of them.This is the style of a strong team.No matter which of the two teams in front of us has the strength to challenge Nanyang.
Feeling awe-inspiring, Li Yifan blocked LeBron who was rushing forward with the ball.Stop LeBron's unhurried dribble-he can't pass the ball, he will definitely attack directly!Staring at the opponent with full concentration, the muscles of the whole body are on alert.
Basketball games are not limited to one-on-one. Teamwork has always been the spirit advocated by this sport.However, none of the members of the two teams had the slightest dissatisfaction with the two fighting alone.On the contrary, the players from Argentina and Jiangcheng moved away at the same time, leaving a large gap in the middle.
The game now belongs to the two of them.
After a series of dazzling fake moves, LeBron flashed past Li Yifan's defense and rushed into the penalty area with the ball.Putting force on his feet, propping his right hand on the ground, he quickly turned his body's center of gravity and Li Yifan ran after him.
Under the basket, LeBron took off with the ball, followed by Li Yifan who leaped high and covered the basketball in his hand.
This ball belongs to Li Yifan!
Suddenly the basketball was pressed down, and Li Yifan's hand to block the ball missed.Flipping the wrist, the basketball reappeared, "Boom!" There was a loud noise, the basket shook violently, and the basketball was dunked heavily into the basket.

What will be done?All the audience held their breath and stared nervously at the rapidly approaching figures on the court.
The forward figure seemed to move sideways slightly, and in a trance, "Pa!" With a crisp sound of bouncing the ground, the figure appeared in front of LeBron and moved sideways, turning left, LeBron quickly reacted to block it.
It was a fake move, and the figure who turned his heels to the ground had appeared behind LeBron. "Crack!" A basketball passed through LeBron's crotch, returned to the figure's hands and rushed to the basket.
LeBron ran wildly, jumped up in the air, and pressed down on the basketball held high in the hands of the figure.Will it be blocked?The audience was so nervous that their hearts rose to their voices.
The basketball disappeared suddenly, and appeared on the right hand in a blink of an eye, "Boom!" There was also a loud noise, and the basket shook violently, dunking!

in the stands.
"It's amazing, the two of them are really amazing!"
"There is no winner!"
"No!" Some audience members shook their heads, "Li Yifan has already gained the upper hand!"
"How could it be? So far, the two have scored the same score, and their offensive success rate is exactly the same!" Someone questioned.
The man explained, "That's right. So far, the two are the same and the two are almost the same perfect. Ditto made three three-pointers, the same two dunks, two throws, and two layups. But the problem is Here, why are the two men attacking in the same way?"
The man interjected: "There is only one explanation. Li Yifan is deliberately using LeBron's moves. It seems to be telling LeBron: what you can do, Li Yifan can also do. LeBron is the clearest on this point." .From the game to the present, LeBron's offensive moves are constantly changing. From inside to outside, from the restricted area to the basket, the variety of offensive methods is dazzling. Many offensive methods can be called whimsical and unique. It can be said that Offensively LeBron is definitely trying to be in the top five in the country. But..."
"However, Li Yifan did it without exception. What's more, when LeBron was prepared, these moves were in Li Yifan's hands, and they were more concise, direct, practical and aggressive."
"As expected, Li Yifan is the best!" someone shouted.
"LeBron, he shouldn't just admit defeat like this, and the Argentine team won't just lose the game like this. What kind of performance should he have next?"

It was Irving who received the ball, and shot from outside the three-point line. "Touch!"
The score is 24:21.
Great, what a great guy.Staring at LeBron, Li Yifan didn't feel the slightest bit of contempt in his heart. It wasn't until now that Li Yifan really regarded him as an opponent who could challenge Li Yifan.If he continues to choose heads-up, perhaps Li Yifan can only regard him as an excellent player.
This kind of LeBron is worthy of being the trump card of Argentina, the captain of Argentina, one of the top four in Australia, and a man known as a genius.
He chose to pass the ball, which is not to admit defeat, let alone avoid the duel between us.Basketball is not as simple as one-on-one duels.Create an offensive, guide the team's strongest offensive firepower, and lead the team to victory. This is the bearing and quality that an ace player should have.The option of passing the ball will make it more difficult for the opponent to defend.
What an exciting opponent!
But no matter what, Li Yifan will not lose this match!In the duel between us, Li Yifan will not lose!
attack!
Ah Hu dribbled the ball, and Jiang Cheng's attacking formation followed.Under the command of LeBron, the Argentine team members quickly stood up and waited for the gap that was intentionally vacated just now to be perfectly filled at this moment.The game has officially entered the offensive and defensive stage of the position.
The ball was passed to Li Yifan's hands again.LeBron blocked Li Yifan again.How will it attack?pass?Break through the penalty area and score the ball?Or just dribble and attack?
The task of the small forward is not only to score but also to score. Passing and assisting are not Li Yifan's mission.As long as there is a [-]% certainty that the small forward should shoot without hesitation.
How confident is Li Yifan in facing LeBron who is waiting for him?
Ten percent!
"Crack!" Bully rushed forward, with erratic footsteps, the basketball stuck to the ground tightly in his hand, and quietly crossed LeBron's block and came to Argentina's penalty area. "Crack!" With a crisp sound, the basketball returned to his hand, accompanied by Li Yifan's high jump.
Shoot!Sliding between Steve's legs, "Shua!" With a crisp sound, the basketball fell steadily into the basket.Score.
The score was 24:23.Accompanied by the score change was earth-shattering cheers from the stands.
"Great job!" The captain came towards him and gave Li Yifan a high-five.Ah Hu raised his thumbs up, and behind him Tong Haifeng and Zhang Yu rushed towards Li Yifan, feeling a heavy pressure on Li Yifan's back, and someone was desperately ravaging Li Yifan's hair: "Nice job!" This was Zhang Yu's voice.
Back to defense! "Come on, Argentina!" Opening his arms and glaring at the tiger, Li Yifan waited quietly for the Argentine team to attack again.Come on, LeBron, let me see how much you can do.
The four eyes met, and a burst of intense sparks erupted from the two people who faced each other from a distance.LeBron, with a calm and watery expression, a frightening coldness shone in his eyes.
Is it burning?
That's what it's going to be.
How long has it been since you encountered an evenly matched opponent?How long has it been since you went all out?Even in the face of Germany and Australia, apart from the huge exhaustion of physical strength, Li Yifan did not encounter evenly matched opponents when facing each other head-on.
Argentina attack.It was Irving with the ball, and the basketball passed to LeBron.How will it attack?The gentle sound of dribbling suddenly speeded up, the static figure suddenly turned, and the left side of the shoulder swayed and suddenly broke through to the right.
In the blink of an eye, the figures intertwine.flashed?
The basketball suddenly appeared in Li Yifan's hands.
Breakthrough failed?The breakthrough failed?The Argentine team members were stunned for a moment and forgot to respond one by one.
At the moment just now, Li Yifan, who had seen through LeBron's actions, quietly left the basketball in LeBron's hand from his hands at the moment his body staggered.It's that simple.
"Run!" With a loud roar, the basketball in his hand was thrown high and flew towards the Argentine team's position.Ahu was running at the front, and by the time Irving realized that he had already taken a long lead, he received the ball and put it into the basket with ease.
Score!The score is now 24:25.Up to now, the Jiangcheng team has finally taken the lead.
From being intercepted to the present, LeBron's face changed several times in an instant, and now he has regained his calm.Staring at Li Yifan, facing him head-on: "As expected of Li Yifan, you are the first one to steal the ball from Li Yifan's hands so easily. Even the Nanyang team has no one who can steal the basketball from Li Yifan's hands so easily. "
A faint smile appeared on his face, and Li Yifan smiled and said: "It was a bit of a fluke just now, but after using the same move a few times, Li Yifan can roughly guess your movements. If you don't have other unique moves, you will lose this duel! "
A smile suddenly appeared on LeBron's calm face: "I've never been the only one who said such things to others, but I didn't expect it to come out of your mouth now. Only you in the entire invitational basketball world are qualified to say such things to others. You really I am very strong, I might really lose to you if I go it alone, but I must be the one who wins today's match!"
"Come on!" Opened his hands, "Wait and see!"
"Crack!" Catching the basketball, LeBron shot it.How could it be so easy, his raised hands blocked the direction of his shooting, "Swoosh!" The two jumped up at the same time, the basketball LeBron was holding high suddenly disappeared from Li Yifan's eyes, "Snap!" There was a crisp bounce of the basketball from LeBron Brown passed to Irving behind the back.
Irving and Smith on the outside blocked and flashed Ahu Ahui, and Irving cut into the inside with the ball.At this time, Li Yifan's feet still haven't touched the ground.
Owen, who cut inside, raised his hand and took a shot. He tricked Tong Haifeng and passed the ball to Steve.Two-on-one at the basket, No. [-] Griffin easily sent the basketball into the basket.
Great cooperation.From LeBron's feint to the two outside picks and then to Irving's cut into the inside, and finally the duo under the basket cooperated seamlessly.
Such a tacit cooperation, such a strong Argentina, such an outstanding Argentine player.Is this the source of LeBron's confidence?With such excellent teammates, even if he can't shoot, his teammates can seize the opportunities they create.
It really is a very good team, but...
After receiving a pass from Ah Hu, the ball was passed to Tong Haifeng, but Tong Haifeng made a gesture but passed it to Zhang Yu. Zhang Yu, who was blocked from the angle of the shot, jumped up in the air and passed the ball to Li Yifan. Ahui took off immediately after receiving the ball, outside the three-point line, with a high arc, "Shua!" Going into the basket!Score!
26: 28.
Not only your Argentina team has excellent players, Li Yifan's teammates are also excellent.Ma Jue on the bench, Zhang Yu and Tong Haifeng on the inside, Ahu and Ahui on the outside are all Li Yifan's trustworthy teammates.
In the next game, LeBron of the Argentine team, Li Yifan of the Jiangcheng team, and the ace players of both sides played at a high level, and the two teams were completely on fire.
Coach Xiangfeng once said that there are very few high school teams that are both offensive and defensive.Three-point defense and [-]% offense are the choices of most teams.
