Chapter 57： Unique to Zuoli's style of play, he won the championship undefeated in the season! (Four thousand large...

In the basketball hall of Stuyvesant Middle School, only 2 minutes into the game, the coach of the opposite Horaceman hurriedly called a timeout, because Zuo Li couldn't stop it!

6 consecutive dunks scored 12 points, and their score was a pitiful 2 points, or their guards got it through free throws. If it goes on like this, they will become the 17th team to be torn apart by Zuoli.

As some of the best private schools in New York, Horaceman can be said to be Stuyvesant's old enemy. They are all models of good sports and poor sports. Before that, they were called wolves in the secondary league. Every season, everyone is in trouble. , Big brother don't laugh at second brother, it's all about losing more and winning less.

But this season is different. Stuyvesant's pheasants have become phoenixes, and they can be described as thriving in the secondary league. Since the 1990s, they are the first high school team in New York to win 16 consecutive victories, but Horaceman 8 At 8 wins, the winning percentage is just over half, and they are in 7th place, which makes them very unbalanced.

Before the match, their head coach watched the video of the Stuyvesant Middle School game for 3 consecutive days, and finally came to the conclusion that as long as Zuoli was restricted, then they would be abolished!

It can be seen that the level of coaches in this high school is average. This thing still requires you to watch the video for so long, and you can't see the data when you look at it?

But they are still good. They made a defensive plan for Zuo Li, because they found that although Zuo Li was playing No. 5, he actually only stood inside when he was defending. Qiangtu accounted for more than 80% of his points, with little mid-range, almost no three-pointers, and average free throws, which made them believe that as long as Zuo Li can't get up, they can win!

"We want to kill their No. 0, the Asian, all their rhythms are brought up by him, as long as we watch him, we have a chance to win! He can only break through, let him shoot, we will go to three Shrink within the line, don't be afraid, victory belongs to us!"

At the time of the timeout, the coach emphasized this defense again, but their defender who was responsible for defending the left standing was going to roll his eyes.

That's right, in order to target Zuoli, they changed the choice of the center from other teams and let the shortest but fastest and best defender in the team to mark Zuoli.

Tsk, how should I put it, as expected of a phoenix, ignoring the height difference of 30cm and forcibly defending, I can only say that the idea is good.

This old man wanted to say... I really couldn't bear Zuo Li, but after looking at the coach's flushed face, he felt that he should not touch this bad guy.

Boldly continued on, this time his speed really kept up with Zuo Li, but Zuo Li made a pick-and-roll directly. That's right, in Stuyvesant, Curry is the best choice for Zuo Li's pick-and-roll. For his one-handed three-pointer, this is a tactic that Hibbert spent months tailor-made for the two!

What is the effect of this...

Break through, score the ball!

Curry catches the ball and shoots the ball with precision.

The younger brother of the guard smiled helplessly, and spread his hands. This time, it's not my fault...

"Hey, people really can't do it." Holsman's coach reluctantly akimbo, lamenting why he was born out of time, and why there is no one under him who can fully play his tactics.

Well, how to say it, I can only say that there is a reason why he can only be a coach in this kind of school. Of course, Zuo Li hopes that the more opponents like this, the better!

With a 29-point gap at halftime, Zuo Li led the team to a full advantage. Zhang Jie, a Chinese woman who had just sat on the sidelines as the principal, clapped happily and turned to look at Harry: "Your decision is right, a successful one. The signings are enough to change the image of our entire school."

"Hahaha, that's the principal of course, Zuo Li is a real genius, that guy is invincible on the streets."

"Then do we have a chance to win the championship this season?" Zhang Jie asked. If we can win the championship, then Stuyvesant will truly achieve both style and style, and the government's subsidies...cough.

"Of course, I believe that we will have the opportunity to win the championship in June next year!" Harry did not hesitate, this is definitely not empty words, watching the game for half a season, Harry is full of confidence in this team , at least in the second league, they have no opponents.

…

At the end of the whole game, Stuyvesant had no suspense. He won 89-56 and won 17 consecutive victories. He completed the first round of kills against all opponents, and also created the best record in team history.

Zuo Li once again scored 38 points, 15 rebounds and 6 blocks in this large double-double, and Curry also scored 27 points and 8 assists. The power of the dual-core became more and more apparent.

"Hey, Zuo Li, we can win the championship this year and go to the first-level league." Curry excitedly ran over to Zuo Li after the game and said, 17 consecutive victories and half-way wins, which made him very excited, and couldn't help but think of the champion who won the championship. matter.

"Be confident, it's not just about winning the championship, we have to win!" Zuo Li waved his hand. He didn't dare to say this before, but now, after all the opponents have played against each other, he is full of confidence. In this era of New York colleges and universities, No one is his opponent.

He finally realized how those big killers played in high school.

Curry is a little bit unconvinced. Winning or something is usually only seen in schools like Oak Hill High School, but as the games went on after Christmas, Curry suddenly found that winning the championship seemed like a real thing. is coming!

At the beginning of the new year in 2004, the Stuyvesant High School basketball team once again ushered in the first game of the year.

Before the game, Curry played a three-pointer from the midfield and pulled Zuo Li together. This project is one of the few projects that he can win Zuo Li steadily, but he has never played such a coquettish public play before the game.

And this time, Curry is obviously more confident, which surprised Hibbert a bit. Curry's biggest problem is that he is not confident. Now he is not the MVP of later generations. Few people have been optimistic about him since he was a child. So even though he has played well in the past six months, he still lacks a bit of self-confidence.

Hibbert has already dragged Zuo Li for questioning. After a year, why has it changed so much.

"Maybe, it has something to do with Christmas." Zuo Li shrugged, indicating that it was no big deal.

Curry chose to stay here for additional training with Zuo Li for Christmas, and Jerry, who had just participated in the AND1 Tournament, finally returned to meet with Zuo Li. The reunion naturally unavoidable a big meal. Zuo Li was the host, and the four of them were there. A western restaurant in Manhattan got a reservation.

Not only the cat-and-mouse duo who came out of the slums, even Curry has no experience of dining in such a high-end restaurant, so the three of them are a little cautious, and the eyes of the people around them are naturally full of contempt, and they are about to say a douchebag. Out.

Of course, I don't dare to challenge him. Even Curry, who looks thin and weak on the court, is a strong man here, not to mention the other three. Although Zuo Li still hasn't gained much weight, his height is here.

Moreover, Zuo Li, who was wearing a simple football uniform, did not change his mood. He still ate beef calmly. This restaurant is only a mid-range restaurant. For Zuo Li, it is not a big deal to come here for a meal. People who despise others don't need to mind. You can eat a sense of superiority in such a restaurant. It can only be said that his level is like this. Of course, if you want to pretend to be forceful, Zuo Li can't give him one. A small lesson, but, no chance, a little regret.

Seeing the restraint of the three, Zuo Li stopped his knife and fork: "Brothers, believe me, this kind of life will be our normal in the future, or even better, look at those people in suits and leather shoes, sooner or later, they will all have to Work for us!"

Zuo Li's words made a young girl sitting behind Zuo Li and them smile brightly, and when Zuo Li and the others finished eating, she said to the graceful woman beside her, "Aunt, I'm going to transfer!"

At that time, Zuo Li's domineering exposure made the cat and mouse duo return to normal. They suddenly remembered that Zuo Li told them the same many years ago. A few years later, they came to Manhattan from a roadside stall in Harlem. I believe that this time, Zuo Li still won't lie.

And Curry is even more shocked, my dear, this is too confident, this is Manhattan!

But what followed immediately was confidence. Curry was not an ordinary person, and he immediately reflected on his life.

"Perhaps, what I lack is Zuo Li's confidence." After gulps down the beef on the plate, Curry vowed that he would become more confident.

So, Curry, who found confidence, scored the first 30 points of his high school career, and he used his performance to make opponent coaches give him a thumbs up.

Zuo Li also scored 20 points, 18 rebounds and 11 assists, and achieved the first triple-double of his career. This is also the consequence of Zuo Li's intention to increase the passing. Although the 8 mistakes in the audience are a bit hot, but in order to train the passing ability, this It's all worth it.

How terrifying to find the confident Curry and the full-fledged Zuo Li, their opponents have the most say.

In the penultimate game of the season, Stuyvesant swept 110-56 and created the biggest loss by points. The head coach of the hapless Horaceman said after the game, crying without tears: "The two of them should Go to college early, it's not their playing field anymore."

In this game, Zuo Li scored a super double-double of 51 points and 20 rebounds and completed 15 dunks to create as many as 35 school team records and 11 New York high school records. Curry 33 points, 8 assists and 4 strengths, and made 10 shots in a single game. A three-pointer also set a record.

And Stuyvesant has won a terrifying 33-game winning streak and remains undefeated.

"Maybe we will witness New York State's first undefeated high school team in a single season in 20 years." After the game, the New York Sports Daily used a small piece of ink to describe Stuyvesant's heroic performance this season.

This time, Stuyvesant did not disappoint others, nor did Zuo Li. In the last game, in the face of Brierley's stubborn resistance and the unfavorable situation of Curry's inaccurate hand, Zuo Li scored 53 points in 39 minutes. The super data of 19 rebounds and 9 blocks destroyed the opponent's defense with repeated breakthroughs.

90-81, Stuyvesant completed his 34-game winning streak in the season!

After the game, Curry flew on Zuo Li, Hibbert slipped and kneeled directly on the court, and the chubby Bob of 210 almost knocked over the cheerleading team with his excited diving.

The whole of Stuyvesant was celebrating them.

Zuo Li was elected the best player and the best team in the second-tier league as it should, and after the game, Zuo Li directly raised the trophy.

I have to say that the media in New York is still strong. There are a lot of media at this level of competition, and Zuo Li once again said to the media: "This is just the beginning, so I won't say the acceptance speech. After a week, Let's talk about it at the championship ceremony!"

"Zuo Li is so handsome!"

"Ah, ah, Zuo Li, look at me, I want to fall in love with you!"

Zuo Li: "..." Good guy, this is an away game, pay attention to whether your team is in a good mood, although Stuyvesant's female academics are almost reacting like this now...

The game had a huge impact on the entire New York basketball world. ESPN even reported on Stuyvesant's game for the first time. They described Zuo Li: "We haven't seen a guy who can play like this in 40 years."

However, it is still limited to New York. After all, it is only the second league. However, when Zuo Li easily defeated his opponent and entered the final, someone finally began to recall what Zuo Li said a year ago.

"Give me two years, and I'll let you see the answer."

Now that the first year has passed quietly, what is the answer given by Zuo Li...

In the second league final, their opponent is Brillley, which is also the team with the least losses against them this season. The main defender Harrison is an excellent defender in the second league. He can score, organize and defend. The most important thing is , He is 182 cm tall, but weighs 198 pounds With him, Curry is always limited.

This time was no exception. Under his interference, Curry missed all of his first 6 shots, and Stuyvesant was 4 points behind at halftime for the first time.

In the second half, when everyone felt that something was going to happen and Stuyvesant was about to roll over, Zuo Li stood up.

In the first half, he scored 21 points, which is quite satisfactory, but in the second half, he came up and singled Harrison in a dislocation, turning his back and rushing to complete 2+1.

Later, he blocked Harlinson in defense and assisted Bob to complete the score, tying the score in one fell swoop.

Zuo Li's performance is still going on. On the defensive end, he moves spiritually. He stretches his long arm to complete the steal, and the fast break completes the dunk.

After the timeout, Zuo Li made another breakthrough and caused damage. Although he only made 1 of 2 free throws, he made the opponent's top card Harrison foul 4 times. It was not far from graduation, and the opponent had to replace Harrison.

But Zuo Li didn't stop there. He handed the dribble to Curry and went to the inside to ask for the ball behind his back, just to bully the opposite inside for his low height.

Bang bang bang!

With three consecutive dunks, Zuo Li led the team to a shock wave of 12-0 and established the victory in one fell swoop!

In the last quarter, Zuo Li even completed the feat of one-on-five in the audience. From the defender to the center, Zuo Li did not let go of a single hand, and finally completed the operation of throwing and deducting the board.

"Zuo Li, it's time to pick up the trophy that belongs to him!" The uncle who was in charge of the commentary couldn't hold the microphone with excitement.

Undefeated to win a championship, this is an undefeated championship. How long has it been since such a thing happened in New York!

In the end, Stuyvesant High School defeated the opponent 90-80 with a 10-point advantage, achieved a feat of 36 wins and 0 losses in the season, and finally completed the undefeated championship!

At the same time, they also successfully entered the New York State Division I League!
