Basketball Myth: Super Guard

"beep......"

At the beginning of the game, the starters of both sides came to the court.

This is not the first time the two sides have played against each other. Although they are not in the same league, they had a warm-up match last season, so they are not unfamiliar.

Seeing the starting lineup of St. Joseph's High School, several Canterbury High School players glanced at each other and couldn't help but smile - very good, St. Joseph's High School is the same as last year.

Last year, the two teams met in a warm-up game, and Canterbury High School lost to St. Joseph's High School, but it didn't lose much, only 6 points away.

This time, Canterbury High School wanted to beat St. Joseph High School, and it was a shame.

The five starters at Canterbury High School are center Jones (197cm tall), power forward Dalton (194cm tall), small forward Graham (192cm tall), shooting guard Kevin (190cm tall), point guard Richard (Height 184cm).

The first jump ball, Douglas easily won, slapped the ball to the backcourt, Kelly took the ball and started to advance, after reaching the frontcourt, the opponent rushed up.

Kelly's heart tightened, looking at Richard in front of him.

Richard is a black guy with a height of only 184 cm. He is not very tall, nor is he that big, but his muscles are well-proportioned, lean and lean, he can run and jump, move quickly, and has excellent skills. He is a senior this year. He is also very experienced. In the fight last year, Kelly suffered a loss from him.

When the two sides played against each other last year, Canterbury High School lost on the inside line. Their starting inside line combination, Jones and Dalton, was inferior to Douglas + Terry in terms of height and personal ability.

However, Canterbury High School has an advantage on the outside. Except for the 3rd position, the 1st and 2nd positions of Canterbury High School have advantages.

"Ball." Kroger stepped forward to ask for the ball.

He knew that Kelly and Richard were at a disadvantage, so he quickly stepped forward to ask for the ball, Kelly passed the ball to Kroger, and Kroger had the ball to play singles, and he was opposite Canterbury High School small forward Graham, Graham Mu's physical fitness is very good, his eyes are sharp, and his defense is very tough.

For a while, Kroger couldn't get past his opponent.

"This guy is much better than last year." Kroger can clearly feel that compared with last year's fight, Graham has improved a lot. "However, you still can't stop me."

The next moment, Kroger stepped back, one step back, and Graham jumped up hard, but after all, he still failed to block the shot.

St. Joseph High School scored two points.

Graham glanced at Kroger and ran to the frontcourt quickly. Canterbury High School fought back. Richard didn't pick and roll when he got to the frontcourt. He took a fancy dribble, and then suddenly accelerated. His speed was much faster than Kelly. , plus the previous misleading meal, passed Kelly in one go.

However, there were Douglas and Terry behind him. The two formed a human wall to block Richard in front of him, but Richard didn't panic. He threw the ball and passed it to power forward Dalton.

Dalton stood in the low position on the right, that is, more than one step within the three-pointer from the bottom corner on the right.

Swish!

The goal was scored and the score was tied 2:2.

"This guy has developed a mid-range shot?" Terry frowned. He remembered that Dalton had almost no mid-range shooting ability when he played against the opponent last year.

It is precisely because of Canterbury High School that the height of the two insiders suffered, and there was no mid-to-long shot, so Douglas and Terry were completely suppressed last year.

Now that Dalton has developed a mid-range shot, it's a bit of a hassle.

"Do you still think I'm the same as last year?" Dalton saw Terry frown, and his heart suddenly felt somber, "This time is different. I lost to you last year, and I want to win this year."

After a few minutes, you and I came and went, and it was a match.

Canterbury High School used to be inferior to St. Joseph High School in the inside line, but now not only Dalton has developed a mid-range shot, but center Jones has also improved a lot compared to last year. The two played against Douglas and Terry. downwind.

On the outside, the No. 1 and No. 2 Canterbury High Schools have the upper hand.

Kroger played well at No. 3, scoring two goals, but last year he remembered that it was easy to single against Graham, but this year it was a lot harder, scoring both goals a bit difficult.

"Shh!"

At this moment, Richard broke through, and Douglas and Terry did not dare to stay inside, because Dalton had the ability to shoot in the middle, and the defense of the inside was weakened.

This gave Richard a chance, and he passed Kelly and sprinted inside, making a small flip to make it 13:12 and Canterbury High to overtake the score.

"beep......"

St. Joseph's High School requested a suspension.

At this time, after more than 6 minutes in the first quarter, Canterbury High School had the upper hand. Several players were in a good mood, especially the two insiders. They were very depressed by Douglas and Terry last year. This time I finally breathed a sigh of relief. .

"St. Joseph's High School still hasn't made much progress. It's been a year, and it's still the same as last year."

"Yeah, I thought Terry would improve a little bit, but I didn't expect it to be like that. I'm still a little disappointed, and I feel it's easy to beat him."

"It's the same on the outside. Kelly's skinny monkey is too thin. I'm afraid that if I push hard, I will knock him into the hospital, haha..."

Several Canterbury players were talking loudly, not caring whether the St. Joseph's players, or the St. Joseph's students on the sidelines, would hear.

What do you hear?

This is a fact.

Here, Frank's face is not very good-looking. He has just taken over St. Joseph's High School. He has limited understanding of what the team used to be, and he can't usually see it. This game problem is exposed.

Obviously, none of these players at St. Joseph's High School made much progress this year, but Canterbury High School did improve significantly.

One trade off and one trade off, the results are self-evident.

Douglas, Terry, and Kelly lowered their heads. Frank snorted coldly and looked at Qin Hao: "Qin, wait for you to come on and replace Harold. Also, come on Douglas, come on Simon."

"Yes." Qin Hao replied, his eyes lit up.

After that, Frank spread out the tactical board and began to arrange: "Wait a minute, we still have to defend well first, Simon, you move faster than Douglas, you have to defend it, don't keep it in the interior. In addition, others have to help Kelly defend. , you can't let the opponent break through easily."

"On offense..."

Saying that, he looked at Qin Hao and said, "Watch the fight yourself."

Frank didn't want Qin Hao to reveal too much of his strength, because he was new to the team and came from China, so he was very unfamiliar to their opponents and could be used as a surprise soldier.

Although with the progress of the game, it will definitely be gradually exposed, but if you can be later, you will be later, and if you can pit one more opponent, you must pit one more opponent.

Frank didn't want this game to be lost either, though.

Although this is a warm-up game, it is the first game of the season. If the first game is lost, it will be a blow to the morale of the team.
