Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Unthinkable Victory_1
At this moment, on the basketball court, Yang Gang began his move, clutching the basketball. He looked at the hoop, took several running steps, then launched himself from the free-throw line... No, he was flying!
Yang Gang’s body traced a graceful arc in the air above the court and then...
Thump!
A thunderous noise echoed throughout the entire stadium.
A slam dunk! A dunk from the free-throw line!
In 1988, during the NBA All-Star Slam Dunk Contest, Flying Man Jordan took off from the free-throw line, soared through the air for a long time, then forcefully slammed the ball into the hoop. This dunk not only won Jordan the dunk contest champion that year, but it also shocked the entire basketball world.
So, basketball could be this thrilling, this fueled by pure passion!
At this moment, the basketball stadium of Haixing University fell deathly silent, so quiet you could have heard a pin drop.
Everyone was dumbstruck.
Even those who were loudly jeering Yang Gang shut their mouths, their faces full of disbelief.
Yang Fei was also entranced by the spectacle, "Is this the result of dad’s special training of Yang Gang? Although I don’t want to admit it, this slam dunk was really kind of cool."
After a while, the sound of a whistle woke everyone up.
The referee ran up to Yang Gang and said, "Traveling!"
Eh?
The whole crowd hesitated, then erupted into hearty laughter.
Thinking about it, yeah, right. It was a three-step layup; that Yang Gang guy just took four steps right!
Yang Fei hid her face in her hands, "Hehehe, what an idiot Yang Gang!"
Huang Tianlin was watching Yang Gang, still feeling the shock in his heart.
It was true that Yang Gang violated the traveling rule, but that extra-length hang-time jump was undeniable. That guy...
Evn those from the Hangcheng Industrial University basketball team were shocked. They had been playing basketball for so long. They know very well how a normal person would bounce. Yang Gang was no more than 1.78m tall and he could actually take-off from the free-throw line. This was defying nature, damn it. If they were to let this out, people would definitely think they were bluffing!
However, for all their astonishment, those from Hangcheng Industrial University knew that they had this warm-up match in the bag.
Because the newly arrived Yang Gang, while he had remarkable speed and jumping abilities, he didn’t seem to know how to play basketball properly. He violated rules by bad serve, bad pass and traveling. No matter how you looked at it, he didn’t seem to have much fight.
Then, it was Hangjang Industrial Univerisity’s turn to attack again with the ball.
Yang Gang was in charge of defending Hangcheng Industrial University’s small forward, Li Ke, a guy who had quick dribbling skills and was very accurate in his shooting.
Li Ke dribbled the ball, but his focus was on Yang Fei at the scoring table, looking like he very much desired to showcase his ball skills in front of the goddess.
He glanced at Yang Gang and thought to himself, "Novice, let me show you today that basketball is not just about jumping. The core of basketball lies in dribbling, in penetrating the defense, in scoring points!"
Li Ke was very confident, doing a cross-over of dribbling, indeed very slick.
Yang Gang seemed very impatient, closed in for a ball snatch but missed, losing his balance in the process.
Seeing this, Li Ke cursed under his breath, "What a moron, he fell very easily."
He sneaked another glance at Yang Fei and saw that she was attentively watching the game. He became even more excited.
Seizing the opportunity of Yang Gang losing his balance, Li Ke made a pretty spin and successfully shook off Yang Gang. Then he executed a standard three-step layup, clutching the ball and taking two steps, then jumped on the third step with the basketball held high, ready to drop the ball into the hoop.
Li Ke’s movements were smooth and elegant, executed in one breath.
"Wow, I feel like the goddess will see me in a new light this time," Li Ke thought with immense satisfaction.
But just then, a shadow darted beneath Li Ke.
It was Yang Gang!
Li Ke was taken aback. Despite having lost his balance, Yang Gang had caught up, his speed was indeed remarkable!
But... I’ve already jumped. He can’t possibly interfere with my shot.
Then, at that moment, Li Ke suddenly felt something cool down below him. Looking down, he was horrified.
Holy shit, that bastard Yang Gang took advantage of his jump to pull his shorts down!!
In front of his goddess, all his secrets laid bare, he wanted to die...
The basketball court fell silent once again.
A moment later, the crowd once again erupted into a chorus of jeers.
"Damn it, Yang Gang must have done that on purpose! This guy really does have the guts to do it!"
"Hahaha, Yang Gang successfully refreshed the lower limit of the son of a wealthy family’s shamelessness."
"The education of the Yang family is really top-notch, capable of nurturing goddesses like Yang Ya and Yang Fei who excel both in character and learning, impeccable in all aspects. But it can also nurture a prodigal son like Yang Gang whose shamelessness knows no bounds."
...
Yang Fei buried her head in the desktop of the scoring table. She wished she could become invisible, wished she had lost her memory, wished she could be reborn. If she were given another chance to reincarnate, she would definitely not want to be Yang Gang’s twin sister anymore!
On the basketball court.
Toot!
The referee whistles again.
"Technical foul! Hangcheng University is penalized!" The referee warned Yang Gang, "If you make the same action again, you will receive another technical foul. Two technical fouls mean automatic disqualification! Even in a warm-up game, some basic basketball rules must be followed!"
"It was really an accident before. I didn’t mean to do it." Yang Gang looked wronged.
The referee ignored him.
Hangcheng University.
Student Li Ke took a hard hit this time. He had his pants pulled down in front of the crowd and was thoroughly embarrassed.
It was enough to make him want to jump off a building.
Once Li Ke hoisted his shorts, he fled the basketball arena. He couldn’t stay any longer!!
Hangcheng University replaced a player, and the game resumed.
However, there were strange things happening on the court.
Every time Hangcheng University attacked, their five players seemed to tremble. Whoever Yang Gang was defending would dare not to dribble or shoot but only pass, avoiding Yang Gang’s defense. However, Yang Gan’s speed was so fast that he could always keep up with the ball, resulting in many 24-second violation because Hangcheng University didn’t shoot in time.
Every time Hangcheng University defended, they did not dare to jump for a rebound under the basket.
Things continued like this, a very strange spectacle indeed.
By the time everyone realized something was wrong, the score was 75:60. Haixing University, once down by thirty points, had taken a significant lead! Moreover, since Yang Gang’s technical foul, Hangcheng University hadn’t scored at all!
The final score was locked at 80:60. Haixing University won a major victory over Hangcheng Industrial University, ending a streak of 99 losses.
When the final whistle sounded, the whole field erupted.
The victory was a bit strange, but after all, it broke a 99 game losing streak!
Congratulations were in order indeed.
The crowd gave all the cheers and applause to Huang Tianlin. He scored fifty points in this game commanding the most attention.
Huang Tianlin, basking in the adulation, felt a twitch at the corner of his mouth. He looked at Yang Gang not far away and a glint flashed through his heart.
"The one who decided the game wasn’t me who had fifty points, but Yang Gang who scored zero! He deliberately pulled down the pants of Li Ke, Hangcheng’s core player, causing a technical foul which resulted in Li Ke being forced to leave the game. As a result, the entire Hangcheng team fell into a ’Yang Gang could pull down our pants at any time’ kind of diffuse panic. Only then did Haixing’s team have a chance to catch up and overtake."
Huang Tianlin then glanced again at Yang Gang.
"If Yang Gang’s technical foul was intentional, then, this guy’s mind and tactics are terrifying. He astutely perceived the mindset of Hangcheng’s team: ’It’s just a warm-up match, it doesn’t matter if we lose.’ But ’if it’s like Li Ke being publicly embarrassed, it’s too humiliating.’ It’s this mentality that made Hangcheng play more passively later in the match, giving Haixing the opportunity to catch up and overtake!"
"Now think about it, with Haixing thirty points behind and technically inferior at the time, the only strategy that could be used to turn things around within the rules of the game, was what Yang Gang did! Yang Gang cleverly used the ’two fouls will be ejected’ rule of the court and anticipated Hangcheng’s mentality ahead of time. Although his method was sneaky and dishonorable, it was a brilliant strategy!"
.
Only at this moment did Yang Fei come back to her senses, looking at the scoreboard in her hand, feeling incredulous.
They won, they actually won!
Although the opponent wasn’t very strong, and it was just a warm-up game, they really won!
"That being said, since I started university, I’ve never seen the Haixing basketball team win! The hero of this game is definitely Huang Tianlin who scored fifty points, and the statistics of my own brother..."
Yang Fei glanced at the statistics she recorded: Yang Gang, 1 technical foul, two turnovers, 0 points, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 rebounds.
"Haha, basically no contribution at all. He even dared to boast about turning defeat into victory, and that I would have to give him a massage if they won... Wait!"
Haixing High won, a massage...
Huh?!
Does this mean I have to give Yang Gang a massage tonight? !!
At this time, young master Yang Gang suddenly spoke: "Everyone, please be quiet!"
Everyone respected young master Yang and stopped their noise.
Actually, they just wanted to see how this guy who had 0 points, 0 assists, 0 rebounds, and 0 steals would justify his performance?
When the basketball hall quieted down, Yang Gang cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, well, our school’s new ’National School Beauty’ voting is about to start. I want to campaign for a certain candidate!"
Murmurs rose from the crowd.
"Just say you want to garner votes for Xia Zihan, why say ’a certain candidate’? "
"Exactly, who doesn’t know that you, Yang Gang, like Xia Zihan!"
Yang Fei was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and thought: "It’s true that Yang Gang used to like Zi Han, but since his car accident, he doesn’t seem to have any intentions towards Zi Han. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have hurt Zi Han with his words. Could it be that he is supporting his fiancée? But that’s unlikely. He barely has any contact with Tong Xin. If it’s not Tong Xin, then..."
Yang Fei looked at herself: "Could it be that he’s campaigning for me? After all, I am his twin sister. Well, Yang Gang, you’ve got a bit of a conscience. Considering that you’re campaigning for me, I’m not going to demand an apology for your earlier offense."
At this moment, young master Yang cleared his throat and began to speak.
