Zhang Yuan's jumping ability is unmatched in the entire Tongcheng University!
Wang Ba alone couldn't stop Zhang Yuan, so Li Yinan had Zhao Tuo and Wang Ba work together to intercept Zhang Yuan under the basket!
Zhao Kuo and Wang Ba are among the best in the team in terms of physical attributes and jumping ability. If the two of them team up, they should be able to stop Zhang Yuan.
Under the basketball hoop of the Sports Academy, Wang Ba and Zhao Tuo stood like two mountains, blocking the middle from the left and right, exuding a powerful aura. Wu Qi was also watching them intently from the side. If Zhang Yuan were to charge directly into the basket of the tall and strong Sports Academy team, it would be difficult for him to break through successfully, and he might even be blocked by Wang Ba and others.
Therefore, Zhang Yuan abandoned his attempt to drive to the basket and instead chose to jump directly from the free-throw line!
"Wait, why is he jumping from the free-throw line?"
"What is Zhang Yuan trying to do?"
"You're not planning to dunk right from the free-throw line, are you?!"
Holy crap, he actually dunked from the free-throw line!!
This is not scientific!
That's awesome!
Zhang Yuan YYdS!\"
...
Zhang Yuan's dunk from the free-throw line stunned everyone!
Li Yinan: "Ah, this!"
Looks like I need to get this guy on the school team!
With such a strong jumping ability, he's good enough to play in the CBA.
Wang Ba: ...
Zhao Tuo: ...
Ma Jianhua: ...
A thunderous cheer erupted from the stadium!
"Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan!"
Many people have become fans!
After Zhang Yuan dunked from the free-throw line, the third quarter ended.
At the end of the third quarter, the score between the School of Physical Education and the School of Arts and Philosophy was 68-49, with the gap narrowing to 19 points!
Li Dongsheng, the coach of the School of Arts and Philosophy team, breathed a sigh of relief.
They finally narrowed the score to within 20 points. If Zhang Yuan can continue his outstanding performance in the fourth quarter, the School of Arts and Philosophy team might be able to pull back some more points!
Li Dongsheng thought to himself.
Just now, the School of Humanities lost by 25 points in the third quarter. The vice dean of the School of Humanities in the stands looked extremely grim, which startled Li Dongsheng.
That's great! As long as he maintains this performance and doesn't lose too badly, he can report back to the college leaders!
The teammates of the School of Arts and Philosophy, whose morale had been shattered, were rekindled by Zhang Yuan's perseverance, his willingness to fight, and his three consecutive dunks!
Especially Zhang Yuan's incredible dunk from the free-throw line at the end!
This is so awesome, so exhilarating!
On the sidelines, in the rest area, Coach Li Dongsheng gave the players some encouraging words, then patted Zhang Yuan on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Zhang Yuan, well done!"
"Let's all play well in the final match, show our spirit, and play to our best ability!!"
Team captain Chen Zhen and Xie Feng also came up to cheer on their teammates!
Yeah, so what if we lose!
It's just a game. We must play well in the fourth quarter and let the School of Physical Education know that the School of Arts and Philosophy is not to be trifled with!
And we also have Zhang Yuan!
The players from the School of Arts and Philosophy team completely let go of their mental burdens, eager to give it their all in the final quarter and put up a fierce battle against the School of Physical Education team.
Even if you lose the fight, you can't lose your spirit!
Just do it!
In the sports academy team's rest area, the team's morale was clearly affected, and they were not as spirited as before.
The team members either drank water or rested.
The atmosphere became a little awkward for a moment.
"What's wrong with you guys? You can't even defend against Zhang Yuan!"
Coach Li Yinan was furious when he saw the team's condition!
"Cheer up! You think Zhang Yuan from the School of Arts and Sciences can beat you like this? That's ridiculous! Our School of Physical Education is the strongest basketball team in the school!"
In the final quarter, keep a tight grip on Zhang Yuan!
Did you know?
"Understood, Coach!"
After Coach Li Yinan's stern reprimand, the players from the Sports Academy team seemed to have recovered and their morale improved.
Yeah, we're still leading by 19 points, what are we timid about!
Next, Li Yinan readjusted his tactics.
Have Wang Ba, Zhao Tuo, and Hei Pang all guard Zhang Yuan under the basket!
As long as Zhang Yuan is prevented from breaking through under the basket, the School of Arts and Philosophy team will lose its strongest offensive scorer, and the entire team will be basically useless!
...
The School of Arts and Philosophy team, rest area.
"In the final quarter, the Sports Academy will definitely field their strongest lineup, so everyone must hold on and pass the ball to Zhang Yuan as much as possible! Understand?"
Li Dongsheng said.
clear!
Everyone chimed in with their opinions.
The fourth quarter has begun.
As Coach Li Dongsheng said, the Sports Academy team launched a terrifying attack right from the start. Guard Chen Qiang served the ball, which was passed to outside sharpshooter Wu Qi, who then passed it to Wang Ba.
Wang Ba's layup attempt was disrupted by center Da Zhuang, and the ball missed. After bouncing off the rim, it was intercepted by Zhao Tuo from the Sports Academy team and passed to sharpshooter Wu Qi.
After receiving the ball, Wu Qi jumped from the three-point line and shot!
With a whoosh, the ball went in!
The School of Physical Education team scored three more points, bringing the score to 71-49, while the School of Arts and Philosophy team fell behind by 22 points!
A bead of cold sweat appeared on Li Dongsheng's forehead, because the vice dean of the School of Literature and Philosophy, with his heavy dark circles under his eyes, had just glared at him with sharp eyes again.
After the Sports Academy team scored, the Arts and Philosophy Academy started serving.
Ma Jianhua passed the ball to defender Huang Shan, who controlled the ball in midfield and then passed it to Zhang Yuan.
After receiving the ball, Zhang Yuan dribbled slowly, scanning the court with his eyes, looking for an offensive opportunity.
When the sports academy team saw Zhang Yuan get the ball, they instinctively tensed up. Wang Ba, Zhao Tuo, and the big center, Hei Pang, all retreated to the inside. As arranged by Coach Li Yinan, the three of them guarded three positions under the basket, forming a triangle to prevent Zhang Yuan from breaking through.
The chubby guy was 2.1 meters tall, and Wang Ba and Zhao Tuo were both over 1.9 meters tall. The three of them stood under the basket at the free throw line and restricted area, spreading their arms, leaving almost no space under the basket.
Wang Ba's face turned ruthless as he said to Zhang Yuan, "Bring it on!"
The Faculty of Arts and Philosophy is doomed to lose today!
Zhang Yuan scoffed, and even felt a little amused.
Who says you have to drive to the basket to score?
When Zhang Yuan dribbled the ball to the three-point line in the Sports Academy's half of the court, he suddenly stopped and made a shooting motion!
Wang Ba's cheek muscles twitched slightly.
"Is he going to shoot a three-pointer?!"
Outside the court, many spectators were puzzled by Zhang Yuan's move beyond the three-point line.
"Wasn't Zhang Yuan supposed to only attack inside? Why is he shooting three-pointers?"
...
"Zhang Yuan, don't be impulsive!"
Outside the sideline, Xie Feng shouted anxiously.
Instead of letting Zhang Yuan shoot three-pointers, it would be better to give them to guard Huang Shan. Huang Shan's three-point shooting percentage is around 40%, which is not bad. As for Zhang Yuan, Xie Feng has known Zhang Yuan for so long, and he doesn't recall ever seeing Zhang Yuan shoot a three-pointer!
"Oh, Zhang Yuan voted for them once before, against the art academy!"
However, like everyone else, Xie Feng believed that Zhang Yuan's three-pointer was probably just luck and chance.
The basketball flew from Zhang Yuan's hands, arced through the air, and then swished smoothly into the basket.
A beautiful hollow ball!
The Faculty of Arts and Philosophy scored three more points, bringing the score back to 71-52!
Outside the stadium.
Xie Feng: Hm? Did it go in again?
Inside the stadium.
Wang Ba: Damn it, who said Zhang Yuan's outside shooting is bad? Damn it!
Zhao Tuo: He can shoot hoops too?!
Black Fatty: ...
Zhang Yuan made a three-pointer, but the sports academy team launched an even fiercer counterattack!
After the Sports Academy team crossed half-court, the basketball was passed to Wu Qi, who was known as a sharpshooter on the Sports Academy team and had a 50% three-point shooting percentage!
Wu Qi, return the favor with three points!
Then Wang Ba dribbled the ball to the opponent's basket and passed it to Wu Qi.
Zhang Yuan was originally defending against Wang Ba, but when he saw Wang Ba about to pass the ball to Wu Qi, he immediately went to cover for him!
Just as Wu Qi threw the basketball, Zhang Yuan, who had quickly arrived and jumped up, flicked the bottom edge of the basketball with his fingertip. The basketball changed its original trajectory and finally hit the rim and bounced out!
Ma Jianhua reached out and picked it up again!
"Zhang Yuan, catch!"
Ma Jianhua quickly passed the ball to Zhang Yuan, who dribbled the ball to attack. The players from the Sports Academy quickly returned to defense, their running speed leaving the players from other academies far behind!
When Zhang Yuan ran to the opponent's three-point line, he once again chose to jump shoot!
Wang Ba jumped up from behind to try to block the shot, but it was too late. The basketball flew out, drawing a beautiful arc, and fell back into the basket.
Another beautiful three-pointer!
Wang Ba: Damn it!
Off the field, Coach Li Yinan felt a vague unease.
"Zhang Yuan can actually shoot from outside!"
The game continued, and the Sports Academy launched a counterattack. Zhao Tuo and Wang Ba cooperated, and finally Zhao Xin made a shot, bringing the score back to two points!
The match was very close.
Zhang Yuan brought the ball back to the Sports Academy's half of the court. The Sports Academy team was a little confused. Should they defend inside or outside?
Just as Wang Ba, Zhao Xin and others were hesitating, Zhang Yuan and Ma Jianhua teamed up and shot again from the three-point line!
Off the court, Coach Li Yinan yelled anxiously, "Wang Ba, Zhao Xin, get up there and defend! What are you standing there for?!"
Zhao Xin: Huh? Wasn't the plan to defend inside?
