My hands slowly dropped down as my body fell, but my eyes never left the basketball gliding in the air. My breathing became rapid because I felt that the flight curve of the ball was very, very, very similar to the curve of a goal!
But the sharp thud when the basketball hit the basket shattered all my fantasies! It's over, the ball didn't go in!
Just when I thought everything was going to end, I suddenly saw a pair of big hands suddenly stretched out from under the basket, desperately grabbing the basketball that bounced out of the basket. Really, I only had one feeling at that time, that they were a pair of hands with wings of hope, and those hands pulled me out of the abyss of failure! ! ! !
Although the gorilla and the other basketball team jumped up after Zhang Nuan's brother suddenly jumped up from the crowd under the basket, the ball was finally firmly grasped by Zhang Nuan's brother. Then, after landing, Zhang Nuan's brother once again stretched out his right arm holding the ball and slammed it towards the basket like an unstoppable avalanche!
The basketball hoop creaked and shook again, and what served as a foil for Zhang Nuan's brother's slam dunk was not only the basketball hoop, but also the gorilla and his companion who were knocked to the ground by the dunk. Everyone stared at Zhang Nuan's brother in amazement, but Zhang Nuan's brother turned his head towards me, nodded at me and said, "Good shot, what a pity."
I nodded blankly, but at this moment the referee suddenly blew the whistle, and then I realized that we were tied, and we had to play overtime with Gao Yang and his team!
Gao Yang and the others stood there glaring at us fiercely, as if we had forced them into a situation they had never expected. Zhang Nuan rushed up and hugged her brother tightly, with a smile on her face as if we had already won. However, I saw Ai Yi walking off the court exhausted, as if she didn't even have the strength to walk. After we left the court, I worriedly asked her if she was okay. She shook her head and said, "It's okay. I should be able to finish the overtime after a rest."
Seeing Ai Yi like this, I couldn't help but frown, because it was thanks to the performance of Zhang Nuan's brother that I made the shot that I missed. But I think after this experience, I will definitely not have such a good shooting opportunity next time, and the people defending Zhang Nuan's brother under the basket will definitely be more careful. It seems that we are in great danger in the overtime. Although I want to tell them that it is a miracle that we can hold on until now, but when I think of the consequences of losing this game, I can't say anything. I just lowered my head and thought desperately about how to win!
Even Zhang Nuan's brother and Su Zhe were worried and asked Ai Yi whether she could finish the overtime. Zhang Nuan was pulling Su Zhe's injured calf hard, saying that he should play in a while, but Su Zhe immediately got a cramp and rolled on the ground in pain. At this time, Ai Yi grabbed Zhang Nuan and said to her, "Sister, don't beg him. I don't need him. I'm fine."
Zhang Nuan opened her big eyes and looked at Ai Yi and said, "I see you are exhausted, can you still run?" Ai Yi's face was so pale as if she was exhausted, but she just bit her lips and shook her head and said, "It's okay, look at the boy opposite!"
Ai Yi said this and pointed her mouth in the direction of Gao Yang opposite. We looked in the direction Ai Yi said and saw that Gao Yang was also sitting on the ground gasping for breath due to exhaustion. He didn't seem to be much better off than Ai Yi!
I was really overjoyed when I saw this scene, because when I was on the court just now, I didn't realize that Gao Yang was so tired. Ai Yi's weak and pale face showed a knowing smile, then she turned her head to look at me and said, it seems that our strategy of tiring the silly boy has been successful.
I couldn't help but frown when I heard her say that, because I couldn't quite tell who the "silly boy" in her words was, was she talking about me or Gao Yang? But I still felt a little proud in my heart. After all, our plan was successful, and Gao Yang's physical strength had been almost exhausted by me. He would definitely not have the speed advantage in a while. Although our Ai Yi was not as good as before, he was almost there, so our two teams were almost at the same starting line again.
Before the referee blew the whistle to start overtime, Ai Yi told us the final tactics again. But after listening to Ai Yi's final tactical arrangement, I opened my mouth wide, not understanding why she still did this. But before I could say anything to refute, Ai Yi looked at Zhang Nuan's brother and Zhang Nuan and asked them, do you agree
What I didn't expect was that these two people just lowered their heads and thought for a moment, then raised their heads and nodded firmly. I don't know why these people trust me so much. Even after I shot the last ball, I no longer believed in myself, but they still did this. I didn't have time to argue with them and I walked onto the basketball court again.
Although everyone was running out of energy this time, the game entered a daytime stage. I could feel that the opponent was getting really serious, but what I didn't expect was that our scores were still very close and the gap didn't widen. Perhaps it was because the break just now gave Ai Yi a chance to catch her breath. Ai Yi's frequent breakthrough layups and Zhang Nuan's brother's back-to-the-basket shots under the basket were all our advantageous scoring weapons, and the opponent was not to be outdone, but seemed to be much more impatient than us.
Because they had expected to beat us easily, but they didn't expect to play like this, so we were able to take advantage of the opponent's mistakes and keep the score close. But at this time, Gao Yang, who was playing against me, dribbled the ball in front of me, looked into my eyes and said to me, "You're doomed, you can't beat me!" After he said this to me, he quickly broke through me and made a layup!
Because the opponent made a three-pointer, the score was now one point ahead of us. Now there were less than 20 seconds left. Ai Yi, who was standing on the sidelines waiting for Zhang Nuan to serve her the ball, said to me and Zhang Nuan's brother, "I plan to delay the attack time of the last ball until the end. This one ball will decide the outcome. If it goes in, we win. If it doesn't go in...
Zhang Nuan's brother and I both listened to Ai Yi with serious expressions, but neither of us spoke and just nodded. Only Zhang Nuan was still there with her big eyes wide open, not really understanding what Ai Yi was saying. She looked at Ai Yi with a confused look.
Zhang Nuan served the ball to Ai Yi. Ai Yi dribbled the ball with one hand and raised the other hand high above her head, making a one gesture to us. We all knew very well that Ai Yi was telling us that as long as we score one more goal, one more goal, we can win the game!
But at this moment, I suddenly noticed a group of people coming towards this side. At first glance, I noticed Zhang Tong walking in front of those people, but I didn’t see Dayao and Shen Fei’s partners. However, I immediately forced myself to put my attention back on the court, because I knew now was not the time to think about those things. The only thing I needed to do now was to win this game!
The opponent seemed to know that we wanted to deliberately slow down the offensive time of the last ball in order to complete the last shot at the last moment, but they also knew very well that if we didn't make this shot, we would have no more time and they would win the game!
Ai Yi dribbled the ball to the opponent's half, and the three of us were closely watched by the opponents. I looked at Gao Yang who was defending me in front of me, and suddenly I felt that this was not a basketball game but a duel of fate. Today, either I complete the transfer of fate, or Gao Yang uses his fate to crush my high school life into pieces, and everything will be decided by this last ball!
At this moment, the referee raised his wrist to look at his watch, and Ai Yi suddenly sped up and rushed straight to the opponent's basket. The opponent immediately blocked Ai Yi's offensive route, and Zhang Nuan's brother, who was standing under the basket, also ran out from the other side of the three-second zone to support, and I ran wildly towards the other side of the three-second zone, the position of my secret weapon. It seemed that fate started to run wild at this moment!
