In the last few minutes, the coach of the Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School frequently called timeouts or substitutions, making targeted adjustments as much as possible, cutting the time into small pieces, and striving to do the best in every attack and every defense. Because this is their last chance, otherwise they will lose.
This makes the Shanghai University Affiliated High School catch up a bit.
With more than one minute left in the fourth quarter, they chased the difference to only 5 points.
But soon Qin Hao stood up, used his teammate's screen and pick-and-roll to throw off the defense, and hit a three-pointer after catching the ball from the outside, the key three-pointer.
The point difference becomes 8 points.
Moreover, the High School Affiliated to Shanghai University has no timeouts.
Yao Bing had to shout at the court from the sidelines, commanding the players in the Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School , but the time was too tight, more than a minute, there is a chance to chase 5 points, but 8 points is too difficult.
"boom!"
When the Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School was 6 points behind in the last 30 seconds, Ni Feiyu missed a three-point shot, and the Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School lost his last hope.
Just 6 points, but its like a moat.
"drop..."
At the end of the game, the score was 86:80 and Yuyang won the seventh high school.
This was the semi-finals of the Southern District, with a knockout system, a life-and-death event, and finally, Yuyang Seventh Middle School won and successfully entered the Southern District Finals.
The players from the Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School were frustrated and full of unwillingness. Ni Feiyu shed tears and blamed himself. He felt that he did not play well, he was not calm enough and made a lot of mistakes.
"Don't cry." Shen An patted Ni Feiyu on the shoulder, and comforted: "You are only a freshman, lack of experience is normal, and mistakes are unavoidable. Don't blame yourself, cheer up, don't be ashamed and brave, I believe you will become stronger."
Ni Feiyu wiped away his tears and looked at Shen An guiltily: "But Captain, you are already in your third year of high school, and you are about to graduate."
Shen An is already in the third year of high school and will graduate in June.
Since entering the team, Shen An has taken care of Ni Feiyu very much, so Ni Feiyu has always wanted to help the team win the Southern Division Championship and enter the national finals with the captain before graduation.
He knew that was the captain's dream.
But... failed.
"It's okay." Shen An said free and easy: "I am about to graduate, but my heart will always be with you. Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School also has you, as well as Li Jiahang, Xia Jie and others. I believe we will be a contender for the championship next season. The Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School will become stronger. One day, we will reach the national finals and even win the national championship."
"Captain." Ni Feiyu opened his mouth, but couldn't help but choke, unable to speak.
Shen An smiled slightly, rubbed Ni Feiyu's hair, and said: "Feiyu, mature slowly, the team will rely on you in the future."
Ni Feiyu nodded heavily, and tears came out again quietly.
The game is over.
Players from both sides shook hands with each other, Qin Hao and Ni Feiyu shook hands, just about to explain that the game is a competition, no personal grievances, and nothing intentional against him.
Ni Feiyu spoke first and said: "Qin Hao, we lost this time, and I also lost. If we lose, we have to admit it. The Rookie King of the South District Title belongs to you. But next time, we will definitely do it. We will win it back, I hope I can play against you again next year."
"Haha." Qin Hao smiled and nodded, "Okay, I hope I can play against you next year. Your talent is actually very good, come on."
"Yeah." Ni Feiyu replied.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
By the time the players from Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School leave, there are still more than half of the fans in the audience.
Today, Qin Hao scored 25 points, plus 3 rebounds and 7 assists, making him the highest score in the game and the highest assists in the team.
At this time, He didn't know who was taking the lead. Someone shouted Qin Hao's name, and then someone immediately called out the title of "New Rookie King of the Southern District".
For a time, many fans shouted in unison.
Qin Hao was surrounded by his teammates. He stood on the court, and the loud shouts resounded throughout the arena-Qin Hao, the newcomer in the southern zone!
At this moment, Liu Huifang truly realized the extraordinariness of his son.
"Zinguo." Liu Huifang asked: "You said, is it possible for our Xiaohao to become a professional player?"
Qin Zhenguo proudly said: "Our son is so good, of course, he can."
"Yeah." Liu Huifang nodded repeatedly.
They didn't know that, in fact, some youth teams including the Yunlong Youth Team had already sent out invitations to Qin Hao. He already had a ladder to become a professional player, but Qin Hao refused.
Because he had already refused, Qin Hao didn't tell his parents, otherwise, he would inevitably be criticized by his parents.
...
At the same time, in Yu City, thousands of miles away, another game in the semi-finals of the South District also came to an end.
This semi-final was Chenqiao No. 9 Middle School vs. Siyuan No.8 Middle School. Siyuan No.8 Middle School played very well and was sharp outside the three-point line. Unfortunately, after all, it was not Chenqiao No. 9 Middle School's opponent. In the end, Chen Qiao No. 9 Middle School defeated Siyuan No.8 Middle School 78:70 and successfully advanced to the Southern District Finals.
"We won."
"Southern District Finals, Chenqiao No. 9 Middle School is coming."
Several Chenqiao No. 9 Middle School players gathered together, their faces hard to conceal the excitement of winning.
At this moment, the team leader ran over. It was a beautiful girl named Zhang Yue. She opened her mouth and said: "Just got the news that another game in the semi-finals of the Southern District has ended. Yuyang Seventh Middle School won the game. We will join the Yuyang Seventh Middle School in the Southern District Finals."
"Yuyang Seventh Middle School."
"Sure enough, they won. TGroup B was the first, and in the group stage, they won all four games. They are really not easy."
The faces of several players converged with excitement and their expressions became serious.
A player asked: "By the way, Zhang Yue, do you have their statistics? How many points did Qin Hao score, and how many points did Ni Feiyu from Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School score?"
"Yes." Zhang Yue said: "Qin Hao scored 25 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists, and 2 steals. Ni Feiyu scored 21 points, 4 rebounds, and 1 assist."
"Sure enough..." The players were not surprised.
After the southern group stage, Qin Hao's reputation has risen, as is Ni Feiyu, and Chen Qiao No. 9 Middle School has played against the Shanghai University Affiliated Middle School in the group stage and knows Ni Feiyu's strength.
Both of them got 20+, but it seemed that Qin Hao won the "Southern Newcomer King" contest.
"Is Qin Hao so strong?"
"It seems that the next Southern District Finals will be difficult to play."
Several Chen Qiao Nine Middle School players are awe-inspiring. They have played against Ni Feiyu. Even Ni Feiyu is not Qin Hao's opponent. One can imagine Qin Hao's strength.
Then the next Yuyang Seventh Middle School will not be easy.
"What are you afraid of?" Captain Kong Yi said loudly: "Yuyang Seventh Middle School is very strong, Qin Hao is very strong, but we are Chenqiao No. 9 Middle School."
"Yes, we haven't lost it yet, and it's the same this time."
"Sure victory!"
Several players shouted together.
From the city league to the regional competitions, after nearly 20 games, they have not lost a single game.Why should they be afraid of Yuyang Seventh Middle School?
