Chapter 63 The King’s Choice
"What are you doing? I waited so long!"
"Which reporter was the one who said in the newspaper last time that Hainan can defend the throne? Why write a football review if you don't understand football at all!"
"It's really annoying to watch! It doesn't matter if you lose, but it's too ugly to lose!"
"The main reason is that Hainan's main players from last year have left, and none of the new ones can fight!"
"The dynasty has come to an end!"
It can be seen that some spectators in the arena have already left the stadium early, cursing and cursing, and they are basically die-hard fans of Hainan.
On the bench, whether it was Mu Shenyi or Gao Touli, there was a sense of powerlessness.
Fighting a positional battle with Xiangyang is tantamount to using your own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points.
But the small run-and-gun lineup that was supposed to be restrained to a certain extent, or at least able to explode each other, actually failed to produce the desired effect at all.
The psychological confusion, physical exhaustion, anxiety about the score, and the fact that some die-hard Hainan fans were leaving the stands one after another at this time, all things came together, like a big mountain, crushing Hainan at this time.
The five people who played the first quarter were all panting heavily, and even Takasago Kazuma, Muto Masa and others who did not play felt as if their chests were blocked by something at this time, and they were suffocating. Uncomfortable, a little out of breath.
"Maintain the current lineup and continue to bet on three-point shooting."
"Either change the formation, Qingtian will use more pick-and-rolls for Ah Shen, and A Mu will pull Lin Dong to the other side, surrounding Ah Shen to score..."
Gao Touli was talking about the next arrangements, but to be honest, he knew that both of them were useless.
Hainan has a third option, which is to surrender in advance and retain its strength to face Lingnan tomorrow.
But the words could not come out of his own mouth.
Gao Touli knew this very well.
Let Hainan play the entire half, this was his agreement with Mu Shenyi.
And if he chose to give up now, frankly speaking, it would be equivalent to a slap in the face of Mu Shenyi.
The subtext is nothing more than: Tell you to show off! I told you to fight! I'm calling you a fool! Are you honest now? Now you know that you are a bad guy, right? Come back here...
Amu's mentality is indeed very mature, but this does not mean that he can bear such a humiliating failure.
In other words, even real adults and even professional players may not be able to withstand such a blow.
Therefore, from the moment Hainan made the decision to resist for half-time, it was doomed that no matter how difficult it was, it would have to play the full half-time.
Not to deal with the audience in the stands, but so as not to affect one's 'Taoist heart'.
As the spiritual pillar of Hainan, he must not let Mu Shen be affected by such a state of mind. Once Mu Shen starts to fall into self-doubt, even if he saves a little energy, he will definitely lose against Lingnan tomorrow.
"Senior Amu, you and I will guard against him together!" Nobunaga Kiyota volunteered.
"Give me the ball, I'll do it!" Kamizou Ichiro also made a pledge.
Everyone subconsciously looked at Mu Shenyi, who was sitting on the bench and panting, and everyone also noticed at this time that Mu Shenyi didn't seem to listen to the conversation between the coach and his teammates at all. Instead, his eyes were always fixed on Lin Dong on the Xiangyang bench.
This made Gao Touli even more worried.
Don’t you think you can’t get over this hurdle?
He was about to say a few words of enlightenment and encourage them to finish the second quarter, but he saw that Mu Shenyi had already retracted his gaze from Lin Dong and exhaled a long breath.
He grabbed the white towel placed next to him and wiped his sweat, and said to himself: "I have learned a lot... When I was watching and watching the video, I couldn't feel the true strength of this guy at all."
Listening to this tone, it seems that you are in a good mood?
Gao Touli breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good to have this mentality...and then just finish the second quarter smoothly, no matter how many points he loses...
Unexpectedly, Mu Shenyi laughed calmly right after: "If we don't fight, let's prepare for the match with Lingnan tomorrow."
Gaotou Li was startled, and the people next to him, including Nobunaga Kiyota, Ichiro Kamizou, were also stunned.
Give up?
This...is this still the senior Mu Shenyi whom everyone knows, who is invincible below the immortals and one-for-one above the immortals?
And if we just give up, what will this week of hard preparation be? The curses from the audience in the arena will probably become even more violent because of this.
"Senior Amu!" Nobunaga Kiyota wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Mu Shen with a wave of his hand.
"Don't care what other people say."
"We try our best to prepare and play because we are Hainan; when we see the gap and give up the stop loss in time, it is also because we are Hainan."
There was a smile on Mu Shenyi's face, and he did not show the slightest loss, but was calm and full of wisdom.
"Winning or losing is not the end, and honor is not a constraint. What matters is what we can learn from it. Let's go back and review the video. Our run-and-gun lineup has exposed a lot of problems, which is a good thing."
"Senior Amu, but..."
"Qingtian." Mu Shen smiled and patted Qingtian Nobunaga on the shoulder, not letting him say the second half of the sentence: "Don't you always say that you want to be the captain of Hainan?"
"Ah?" Nobunaga Kiyota opened his mouth wide, not sure why Senior Amu would suddenly mention such a thing at this time.
Are you so defeated that you want to give up your seat in advance?
This can have...
"Then I will teach you the first lesson you should learn as a captain."
Just listen to Mu Shen say slowly: "Only when you can afford to lose, you can win more, and only when you can afford to lose, can you be truly fearless!"
Obviously, Maki Shinichi's words were not just meant for Kiyota Nobunaga, but also for the whole team.
The entire team, which had been a little restless, finally fell silent at this time.
The silent atmosphere was not broken until at least a few seconds later by Gao Touli's loud laughter.
"This is the Mu Shenyi I know." Gao Touli laughed and said, "Then just listen to A Mu, relax and get ready to face Lingnan tomorrow!"
…………
I saw Gao Touli hand over the substitution list to the referee's bench, and at the same time, a group of Hainan substitutes stood up to warm up.
Sitting on the bench, Fujima finally couldn't help but sigh.
"Originally I wanted to see how you go all out." He said to Lin Dong dumbfounded: "I didn't expect that even Amu... wouldn't it be so easy for us to defeat the Mountain King? I feel like I almost have no sense of existence. .”
"So don't sit on the bench next time, come up and enjoy it at least." Hanagata Toru teased him with a smile: "You see, I feel that I have a sense of existence."
"That's what you think..."
"I'll play in Buri tomorrow. Lin Dong, you need to rest. Otherwise, the game will end in 10 minutes. This will make me seriously doubt what I did in the past two years..."
"Put in my name as the starter, go up and play two balls and then replace me." Lin Dong said.
Even Hainan failed to surprise me, let alone Buri? It's really boring to abuse food.
But you must show up, otherwise the system will not calculate points.
So what about 2 points? Mosquito legs are also meat.
"Okay! Since the people from Hainan are not going up, let's take a break and give Ye Shuiwang and the others a few opportunities to practice their skills."
"Hainan's substitutes are not weak. Although we are now 30 points ahead, you still have to work hard."
"Don't worry, leave it to us. Not to mention Hainan's substitute, Lin Dongjun is in charge. Even if Sanno Industrial's substitute comes, we will defeat them!"
Ye Shuiwang and others screamed, while the rest of the team were laughing.
Think about it, two or three months ago, everyone was still worried about how to break through the top 16 in the national competition, but now I am afraid that not only Fujima, but everyone in the Xiangyang team has begun to ignore Sanno Industries. Here...this change is really too big.
"I'm going to have fun too." Fujima stood up with a smile: "I keep seeing you running around on the court, and my hands are itching."
"HOHO, Fujima-senpai takes action!"
"Destroy them!"
"superior!"
