I am reborn and just want to concentrate on my studies

The lights in the arena are bright, and correspondingly, the sky outside is getting darker and darker.

Wang Sangning, who had just sat down, heard the sound of wind blowing from the crack in the door. She glanced back and saw a few raindrops gradually climbing on the window.

Ah, it's raining.

The game started again.

In the third quarter, it was the senior one's turn to serve.

Xiong Zhen stood outside the line, holding the basketball in one hand. He glanced at Yi Yang hesitantly and said, "Dry the ball over and pass it later."

Yi Yang didn't speak, just smiled calmly.

The ball was served.

Then a high school sophomore guard with a flat head came up to him. His height was not exaggerated. He was only over 1.8 meters tall and even looked a little shorter than Yi Yang.

Not everyone is a member of the school team. Although everyone is training, there are only a few seniors who can finally make it to the squad. There are not many places that can actually be allocated to the sophomores and freshmen. The sophomores are the control. Wei is not on the school basketball team.

But it’s also a full-court press!

Gao Runxiang held the whistle in his mouth and stared sharply at the two people who were about to enter the circle.

Yi Yang didn't do any fancy dribbling. When the opponent's defense came up, he just crossed the ball in front of his body and coordinated with his footsteps to avoid a wave of harassment. Then when the opponent came up for the second wave of harassment, Yi Yang sunk. He took a shoulder step, stuck the opponent's body, and forced the ball forward. At this angle and posture, it was already very difficult for the opponent to keep up, let alone harass him. He had no choice but to quickly pull away and let him go two steps away.

Gao Runxiang was a little surprised. Such a sophisticated way of controlling movement and rational use of the body was already better than the starting point guard in the team.

It's not a gap in basic skills, but the current team's point guard has solid basic dribbling skills, but he is addicted to doing some meaningless fancy dribbling. He said it many times and the kid didn't think so.

Li Rui was a little surprised. Yi Yang's operation was indeed very stable, which made him feel much more at ease.

Yi Yang successfully brought the ball to the frontcourt and did not rush to attack. Instead, he carefully observed the movement of his teammates and the position of his opponents on the court.

But unfortunately, as Zhao Qiang said, the teammates in the first year of high school didn't have any tactics. The two of them sank to the bottom line. Xiong Zhen stood in the elbow area, but someone might come over to double-team him at any time, so it didn't matter. Space for singles.

In positional warfare, to break this deadlock, you must move, but how to move is a science, and it will definitely not work to just rush with the ball.

Fortunately, there is also Zhao Qiang in the team who has a good rapport with him.

With almost just a look, Qiangzi understood Yi Yang's intention and quickly stepped out of the pick-and-roll. When Zhao Qiang's pick-and-roll was about to take shape, Yi Yang began to move in, creating a time lag. He just happened to get stuck when the opponent's defender failed to connect in time. In the blink of an eye, I entered.

Once the formation is torn apart, there is unlimited room for maneuver.

The premise is that you are calm enough!

Nowadays, in terms of hard power, confrontation and finishing defense, Yi Yang is definitely far behind Zhao Qiang, but his basketball IQ allows him to still become Zhao Qiang's most trusted partner on the court.

After the pick-and-roll was completed, Zhao Qiang turned around. At this time, everyone's eyes were naturally on Yi Yang. He easily cut to the basket with almost no lag. When the ball came, Yi Yang was in the gap. The lieutenant general passed the ball and the assist was just right. Zhao Qiang received the ball and scored a backhand layup.

Gao Runxiang's eyes lit up. If the ball control just now shows that Yi Yang is a person who can play ball, then the assist just now shows that he is a person who can win!

Which position on the court is the most important?

For laymen who don't understand basketball, the most important roles on the court are naturally the scorers who dribble gorgeously and can break through and shoot. Even those who can get everything under the basket will be impressive.

But in the eyes of a coach, there are too many people who can score. Everyone is very good, but those who can organize are only one in a hundred.

In the eyes of laymen, the point guard is the shortest one, dribbling the ball to the frontcourt, and then throwing the ball to the most powerful forward or the tallest center to finish the job. It even creates the illusion that I can do this kind of job.

But in fact, this is not the case at all. No matter how powerful a person is, it is impossible for one person to beat five.

And the five people on the court are five living individuals! How to turn these five independent people into a lethal whole is the job of the point guard!

What may seem like a simple pass to a teammate to outsiders actually involves a lot of knowledge, including tactics, movement, whether there are opportunities, and all the dynamics on the court must be understood, and the most important thing is... The ball has arrived and the people have arrived! With all these factors combined, it is definitely not an easy task to be a good organizer of ball games.

For high school students, it is almost impossible to see such mature point guards, so high school students' games give people the impression of pressing, pressing, and fast breaks.

Teams with complete tactical capabilities are often regulars in the high school league national finals, such as Tsinghua High School and Ningjiang University.

Last year, their high school league journey stopped at the third stage of the league. The fundamental reason was that the team lacked an excellent organizer. After noticing Yi Yang, he had some thoughts.

This goal naturally made Lei Zhenyu even more unhappy, but at this time he had to contend with Zhao Qiang, so he patted the flat-headed defender and said, "Guard him!"

The game continued. Yi Yang was still a little cautious at first. After all, it had been a while since he had touched the basketball. Gradually, he felt better and better, and his playing became smoother. After assisting his teammates two or three times in a row to complete the score, he also scored. He gained confidence, his mentality became more and more relaxed, and the corners of his mouth even slightly raised.

How should I put it? High school students are still relatively immature and impatient. This is not only their own weakness, but also the opponent's flaw. Zhao Qiang, because he has received training from a professional team, has confidence and tactical literacy. Of course, he can also be very calm. As long as he calms down , the game is half won.

Yi Yang was not in a hurry to attack. He prepared to pass the ball first in every round, so when most of the third quarter had passed, he had not even taken a shot.

In the rest of the third quarter, Yi Yang continued this style of play and gradually began to let go of his voice and direct others to move.

A point guard must have strong enough self-confidence, and he must also have a loud voice. At this time, the vocal skills learned during military training and vocal music come in handy. The breath is supported and the voice is rich, and his performance Already winning everyone's approval, he commanded calmly and had an unquestionable intimidation.

Movement has also become more rigorous.

Yi Yang's style of play is very simple. Isn't there no tactics? It's just called a pick-and-roll. This is the club. Sometimes it's Zhao Qiang, sometimes it's Xiong Zhen. Needless to say, Zhao Qiang, Lei Zhen also has a basic sense of following the pick-and-roll, and Yi Yang's breakthrough is very threatening. He can always create space for them and even send the ball out.

If Zhao Qiang or Xiong Zhen's downswing is blocked, Yi Yang will promptly pass the ball to the other two teammates standing on the baselines on both sides.

Although it is simple, every routine can produce new changes. It can cope with the changes by staying the same and achieve success again and again.

The more Gao Runxiang watched, the more interesting he became. Is this a kid or a cultural student? After observing the whole quarter, he was already sure that Yi Yang was the kind of talented point guard that the team lacked.

During this process, Yi Yang did not show off his three-point shooting ability. He just played this game with a playful attitude, and although he appeared calm at first, he was actually a bit nervous. After all, The opponent is the school team... But until now, he only has one thought: the school team is nothing more than that.

There is a feeling that even I can do it.

During the break after the third quarter, Li Rui was about to play again. He glanced at Yi Yang, and Yi Yang was also ready to be replaced.

But then Li Rui looked at the other player and said, "Go down and rest. If Yi Yang is not tired, continue playing point guard!"

Pounce: "?"

In the last quarter, Yi Yang continued his previous style of play, playing steadily, relying on Zhao Qiang and Li Rui when attacking, and Zhao Qiang locking down Lei Zhenyu on the defensive side. The game went smoothly. Near the end of the game, he was leading 57 to 49. .

Li Rui could not wait to smile, while Lei Zhenyu on the other side became more and more depressed and made frequent mistakes.

Of course he can see Yi Yang's basketball IQ!

Why!

Why!

Why is this kid so good at everything!

Lei Zhenyu was unconvinced. He glanced at Wang Sangning on the sidelines and felt angry. In the last few dozen seconds, he suddenly seized an opportunity and broke through, preparing for a dunk to save some face.

Take the first step and jump!

The basket was close at hand, and just when he was about to succeed, a slap suddenly came over, and he slapped the ball firmly from behind, pressing the basketball directly onto the backboard.

Of course it was Zhao Qiang who did it!

After Lei Zhenyu landed, his head was buzzing, and he subconsciously turned around, only to see Zhao Qiang grabbing the ball and throwing a long pass backwards.

It was Yi Yang who caught the ball.

At this time, the sophomore class no longer had much fighting spirit, and several defenders stopped even halfway through the pursuit, ready to watch.

When Yi Yang saw this, he was not polite. After collecting the ball in three steps, he jumped high and slammed the ball into the basket.

"call!"

Lei Zhenyu's eyes widened, this... this... this kid can still dunk?

Suddenly, he thought of something...

Wait, wait, Yi Yang... Yi Yang...

Suddenly I thought of why I felt this name was familiar.

This kid...has he ever smashed a backboard? !

Lei Zhenyu looked to the sidelines and saw Wang Sangning clapping excitedly.

…

The game is over.

The first-year students were chatting happily. Yi Yang was changing clothes when suddenly a sophomore called him: "Yi Yang, Teacher Gao wants to talk to you."

"Teacher Gao?" Yi Yang looked over there and saw Gao Runxiang with his hands on his chest, looking at him from a distance.

…

"Do you know why the High School Affiliated to Normal University wants to build a high school with basketball specialties like Hanning No. 1 Middle School?"

Of course Yi Yang didn't know, so he didn't speak.

Gao Runxiang then smiled and asked another unrelated question: "Do you know the policy for recruiting high-level athletes in colleges and universities?"

Of course Yi Yang knew this.

In fact, for a certain period of time, he had not thought about becoming a sports student.

Because he knows that his cultural performance is not that top-notch, he does think about whether there are other ways to enter a top university.

And he does have the capital to think about other paths.

In addition to culture, there are three more reliable paths for him, namely art and sports students, competition students, and sports students.

Let's talk about arts and sports students first. It's not that he has no hope, but this option has been ruled out by him, because taking this path means that he will probably only major in arts and sports in the future, and music is a good hobby. Seeing it as a lifelong career made him a little embarrassed. If there were no other options, it would be a way, but now he decided to just keep music as a hobby.

The road ahead for competition is currently unclear.

At present, only the chemistry competition sounds good, and the other subjects are already on the verge of giving up. However, this kind of thing still requires a bit of luck. The results will not be seen until later. It is not yet sure whether I can do this in the future. Road, just endure it first.

The next step is to become a sports student.

But for him, taking the direction of being a sports student was not a good option.

Currently, the only way he can become a sports student is long-distance running. He has never practiced sprinting, but he is estimated to be at the level of a second- or third-level athlete at most.

Such a result can only be achieved through a single approach.

Here I have to mention two options for sports students, one is the sports college entrance examination, and the other is high-level athletes.

The biggest difference is that individual applicants can only go to sports majors and sports universities, while high-level athletes can enter comprehensive universities and choose their favorite major.

Yi Yang does not intend to make sports his lifelong career, so there is no doubt that if he takes the path of sports, he will only choose the path of high-level athletes.

But here comes the problem. The threshold for becoming a high-level athlete is much higher than for individual athletes, starting with national first-level athletes.

National level two is probably achieved through hard work, but above level one, it is impossible without some talent. Many people just lack that little bit of talent, and the gap of a few seconds is like an abyss. Dreams separate.

Maybe you have some talent. If you practice long-distance running or sprinting in high school, it is possible to break through to the standard of a national first-class athlete. But for this small possibility, sacrificing a lot of time on training is almost equivalent to giving up on culture. road, obviously the gain outweighs the loss.

Therefore, Yi Yang gave up the path of being a sports student.

Yi Yang nodded and said, "Yeah, I know."

Gao Runxiang stopped talking nonsense and said directly: "You know the high-level athlete policy, so I don't need to explain it to you. Let's just put it this way. Do you know what the standards for high-level athletes in basketball are?"

Yi Yang was slightly startled.

When Gao Runxiang saw Yi Yang's expression, he realized that he probably wasn't quite sure yet. He smiled, stretched out a few fingers and said, "The closest to us is the National High School League."

After a pause, he continued: "High-level athletes in basketball don't look at hard indicators such as how much they run or how high they jump. They just look at the same thing: performance."

"Because the key stage of the high school student league is held in March every year, which overlaps with the physical exam for senior high school students in our school, and as you know, the cultural performance of high-level athletes requires the second level, so for many strong but talented athletes For students with poor education, the price-performance ratio of the competition is too low, so they can only give up the competition and take the physical examination, so we will be more inclined to find young talents from the first and second grade of high school to participate in the competition to ensure the completeness of the lineup."

Gao Runxiang patted Yi Yang on the shoulder and said: "You think you are good, how about it? Do you have the courage to spend an extra hour or two training every day and take a gamble to reach a high level? This should be better for you than academic competitions." Is it possible to get into a prestigious school? With your cultural scores, you should just go to the second line, right? In the future, when your cultural scores are good, it is not impossible for Qingbei to resume diplomatic relations. Think about it!"

Yi Yang was silent. Gao Runxiang knew that he needed to think about it. He smiled, patted him on the shoulder again, and said as he walked: "We will determine the final team roster next Friday. You can decide it on Thursday." Come to the physical education and research office to find me."

Yi Yang looked at Gao Runxiang's leaving figure without saying a word.
