Lu Yu followed his teammates at the back of the team, shaking hands with the Tongjiang team players after the game.
A player from the Mingjiang team walked past Lu Yu. When it was Weng Pei's turn, Lu Yu looked up and saw that Weng Pei still showed no sign of disappointment. It was like the last time Lu Yu saw Weng Pei cry at the Olympics four years ago.
Weng Pei was much stronger than her. After setbacks, she transformed into an indomitable person in the shortest time.
Lu Yu suppressed her thoughts and tried to smile naturally.
This could be considered a gesture of goodwill.
Lu Yu is in great shape right now; hopefully she can maintain it.
"Maintaining a stable performance is what you should be most worried about. Don't think that one or two performances will qualify you for the Olympics."
Weng Pei's thoughts and words rang out almost simultaneously.
Lu Yu secretly smiled to herself.
Xiao Pei, who has a sharp tongue but a kind heart, is still the same as before. It seems like nothing has changed. Four years have passed as if the pause button has been pressed.
Chu Feiyu, who was standing next to Lu Yu, was already unhappy with her own performance. Now, Weng Pei's words sounded like bullying, so she immediately said angrily, "Your team has lost twice, so why are you so arrogant?"
Weng Pei has always been someone who thinks the world is the most important person in the world, but when she encounters Chu Feiyu, who is quick to anger, it brings out her mischievous side.
“My personal strength supports my confidence.” These short and powerful words flowed from Weng Pei’s indifferent lips.
Although Jiang lost this match, Weng Pei's performance was undeniable; she was widely recognized as carrying the entire team single-handedly.
Chu Feiyu blushed instantly. She had made a bold statement that she would defeat Weng Pei on her own, but now it seemed that the difference in strength was indeed huge.
"Xiao Pei, how do you manage to consistently defend against Fei Yu's long-range shots? Can you give me some pointers?" Lu Yu asked, raising an eyebrow.
"What a joke, we're the opposing team." Weng Pei chuckled. "Lu Yu, you've been holding back for so long, and the first thing you said to me was to help your teammates solve their technical problems."
"Who needs your teaching!" Chu Feiyu was furious at Weng Pei's arrogant attitude.
"Hehe, your long-range shots are all fadeaway shots, which are easy to block. As for your defense..." Weng Pei's gaze was calm, "Defense that only focuses on man-to-man is ineffective defense, and don't easily think that the fadeaway shot is a sure-kill move."
Before turning away, Weng Pei gave Chu Feiyu a mocking smile.
"..."
The intense competition in the semifinals attracted huge attention and a flood of online comments. The Qingbei team and the Jiang team gained countless fans, with Lu Yu, Sun Meng, and Weng Pei becoming the focus of discussion.
-Sun Meng is only in his first year in the league, and his momentum is undeniable.
-In the first half of the regular season, Sun Meng basically carried four opponents to win a few games.
-Stop talking, I'm a huge fan of Weng Pei. Isn't the current Weng Pei just like the old Sun Meng? I'm so upset. -
-Maybe my focus is a bit odd, I'm just curious how Sun Meng developed her layup.
- He can only be described as a genius.
- Incredible jumping ability. Small forwards are generally known for their jumping ability, but this girl's ball-handling skills are on a completely different level. -
That's why she was able to become a swingman.
- Team Jiang's loss in this match was a pity; they made a crucial mistake. -
- Lu Yu is a combo guard, and Qingbei team has two players who can play multiple positions. It's unrealistic to expect Weng Pei to carry the whole team alone.
-I suddenly feel a surge of relief; Lu Yu has finally broken free from the gloom. -
- He remained silent for two whole years, and his return to the group was unsuccessful; he also never exploited fan opinion.
- In competitive sports, strength speaks for itself. What's there to brag about?
-Lu Yu started as a substitute player on the team, and even as his skills improved, he never used fan pressure to force the team to give him playing time. Even Tengyue, a sports equipment company, was sponsored by Qingbei Team. Do they even know who Tengyue is? Lu Yu consistently focused on doing his best and recovering his strength. His return to the court and his stunning performance deserves praise, doesn't it?
- The person upstairs is writing a super long post; definitely a true fan, hahaha. -
It's hard to imagine whether Lu Yu would have gotten this opportunity if Qingbei team hadn't had such a poor record, if they hadn't needed to make overall adjustments to their combo guards, and if their chances of qualifying hadn't been so slim. Would she have only been left with sighs and regrets then?
- Daily question: What were the Qingbei team's coaching staff doing before?
- Let's have a rational discussion. Lu Yu's performance is inconsistent. After all, the shadow of the Olympics is still lingering, and any coach would definitely have to carefully consider using Lu Yu again.
-It's true that Qingbei team's chances of advancing are slim, so they're doing it as a last resort. That's why Lu Yu got the chance to play...-
