Chapter 96 Remember My Weight
Nie Chuan quickly caught the ball, turned around and ran.
Jonathan, Cook and Manning all chased after him.
Nie Chuan was like a comet, and the people chasing after him seemed to be just the dust raised by his speed.
Nie Chuan suddenly stopped and made a quick pass across the center line, which immediately frightened UJT.
Because the person he passed the ball to was not someone else, but Ewing.
Ewing was being guarded by the opponent's point guard, and Carlo had already rushed to meet him. But Ewing's expression was cold, he turned around and dribbled behind his back, then dribbled on the same side, shook his shoulders, and then changed direction and accelerated, passing the opponent's point guard's defense, and Carlo arrived and blocked the point guard who was about to continue chasing Ewing.
Ewing stood outside the three-point line and shot calmly again, making a three-pointer.
Nie Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. There was still one and a half minutes left in the game, but they were already leading UJT by seven points!
"Although Reese is injured, he has made DK more united than ever before!" Robert exclaimed.
"That's because they have Nie Chuan. Without a point guard like Nie Chuan who is good at both offense and defense, DK may not be as flexible and sharp as it is now."
Engel said.
When Nie Chuan held the ball and led DK's offensive, DK's fans began to applaud rhythmically.
He faced the double defense of Jonathan and Manning. These two guys were already very strong, and Nie Chuan couldn't cut in from either left or right.
"Nie Chuan - pass the ball -" Carlo came running over.
Nie Chuan made a dribbling gesture towards Carlo, attracting Jonathan's movement, and at that moment, Nie Chuan retrieved the ball and quickly moved to Manning's right. As soon as Manning's knee moved, Nie Chuan adjusted his center of gravity back and slid through Jonathan and Manning.
The control of time difference is perfect.
"Oh!" Robert clapped his hands. "Good boy!"
Nie Chuan rushed straight into the basket and jumped directly.
The big guy Cook rushed to meet the enemy. After seeing Nie Chuan's fadeaway jump shot before, Cook tried his best in this jump, and the height he jumped into the air seemed to cover Nie Chuan completely.
If it were an ordinary player, he would be intimidated by such pressure, but Nie Chuan calmly retrieved the ball. He did not even reach the best pitching height, he just pushed the ball out.
Montenegro received the ball, and Jonathan and Manning were rushing over, but it was too late. Montenegro jumped up quickly and dunked hard, and the sound echoed throughout the arena.
Nie Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. They were now leading UJT by nine points.
There is only one minute left. You cannot relax. You absolutely cannot relax!
Nie Chuan glanced at Reese who was sitting in the chair. He was looking at him with calm eyes.
This was the first time that Nie Chuan felt that he was being chased by Reese.
UJT struggled hard, they passed the ball more frequently and increased their speed, trying to rush into DK's area.
Jonathan held the ball, dribbled past Peter, and then passed Ewing and Carlo. Nie Chuan could see this guy's persistence in winning.
But unfortunately, I have to take this ball!
Nie Chuan confronted Jonathan at the free throw line. Montenegro was ready for Jonathan to break into the basket. Jonathan dribbled the ball from behind to avoid Nie Chuan, but Nie Chuan quickly turned around, used his left foot as a fulcrum to follow Jonathan's dribble and turned behind him, and took the ball away.
"Oh my God! Well done!" Robert couldn't help but slap his thigh at the commentary desk.
Nie Chuan dribbled the ball and faced the opposing point guard and shooting guard, then passed the ball to Peter neatly. Facing Jonathan who was rushing over, Peter passed the ball to Carlo. Carlo broke into the basket, retreated to a safe distance in front of Cook, and then passed the ball back to Peter.
Montenegro and Carlo kept Cook at the front and back, and Peter jumped and shot to score!
With thirty-five seconds left in the game, UJT was unable to recover due to the 11-point gap.
The audience began to count down, and UJT was still fighting its last battle. When the last second came, the score of the game was fixed at a difference of 11 points.
Nie Chuan put his hands on his hips, closed his eyes and exhaled.
"Congratulations to DK for advancing to the round of 16! This game was really great!" Robert clapped his hands very hard.
"Right now I'm more worried about Reese Reddington's ankle. DK's next game will be against KSU, who is also a seeded team."
"Yes, I was looking forward to the match between Reese Reddington and Raven Harvey. Both of them are players who combine speed and explosiveness. But Reese Reddington's situation doesn't seem good. Without this excellent small forward and scoring star, I'm worried that DK will not be able to defeat KSU." Espenson frowned.
"Everyone, don't be pessimistic yet. The match between UDK and KSU will be in three days. During this time, Reese's swelling may go down, and we will be able to see her again."
"Well, God bless DK."
Nie Chuan came to the bench and hugged Reese tightly.
Reese's head was buried in Nie Chuan's chest, and he could hear his heavy breathing.
"You did a great job. Really great job."
Nie Chuan's nose started to sour. He just wanted to know how the doctor diagnosed Reese's ankle.
Ewing, Carlo and others also came forward and everyone hugged each other.
This victory was hard-won.
At this time, "Old Sparrow" brought his teammates to DK.
Cook extended his hand to Reese with a guilty look on his face: "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to step on you. If it affects your next game, my guilt will be irreversible."
Reese shook hands with Cook calmly: "Then as long as we win against KSU, you don't have to feel guilty."
Nie Chuan stood aside and watched Reese. It was the first time for him to see Reese's demeanor in the arena. He would not hate any serious opponent. On the contrary, he respected any opponent who gave his all, no matter if the opponent was strong or weak.
"Then you must beat KSU!" Cook nodded vigorously.
Under the gaze of the audience, the DK team left the stadium.
Reese stood up, and Nie Chuan lowered his head to look at his ankle, which was obviously swollen.
In any case, Nie Chuan didn't think that the swelling would go away in three days.
"I don't want to be carried out by others. Can you carry me?" Reese said.
"certainly."
Nie Chuan lowered himself in front of Reese, and Reese wrapped his arms around Nie Chuan's shoulders.
To be honest, a man over 190 cm tall and full of muscles is really heavy, but Nie Chuan just stumbled a little, then carried Reese on his back and walked towards the exit.
The audience burst into applause.
Nie Chuan raised his head and took every step steadily.
He saw Owen, Wright and Thomas all stood up in the audience and watched them go.
Nie Chuan looked at them and then entered the passage.
In the short passage, Nie Chuan could not hear the noise and discussions. It seemed that Reese was the only one left in his world.
Reese's arm around his shoulders, Reese's warmth, and the touch of his cheek at this moment, he felt that he and Reese were the two closest people in the world.
As soon as they walked out of the stadium, countless fans and media rushed over. Fortunately, security personnel stepped forward to separate them, and the DK players got on the bus smoothly.
Nie Chuan helped Reese sit down on the seat. The car started, but the car was silent and no one was happy about this victory.
The bus drove directly to a nearby hospital, where doctors gave Reese a detailed examination.
Nearly an hour later, Coach Gordon said to the players waiting in the hospital corridor: "I have good news and bad news to tell you. I hope you can stay calm after listening to it. This is a hospital. I hope everyone will be quiet."
The players looked in the direction of Coach Gordon, and Nie Chuan's heart was beating rapidly.
He seemed to anticipate what Coach Gordon would say.
"Reece's bones and joints are not damaged and will not affect his sports career."
As the words fell, you could clearly hear everyone exhaling.
"But the bruise on his ankle needs a week to heal. Otherwise, forcing him to play will hurt his muscles and even cause a second injury during the game, causing real damage to his ankle joint... So Reese will not be able to play in our game against KSU in three days."
Nie Chuan clenched his fists, and many team members hesitated to speak.
In fact, what everyone wants to say is clear. Without Reese, who can fight against KSU's Raven Harvey? The ability to cut in will be greatly weakened, and their speed may not be able to keep up, and the chances of winning will be very slim.
"As for the lineup for the game three days later, I will discuss it with the assistant coaches before making a decision. Now we can go back to school. Apart from adjustment practice, there will be no additional training in these three days. I hope everyone can have a good rest and recharge their energy."
When people walk in the hospital corridor, they can always hear sighs.
DK's morale was low, but Reese's injury could not be concealed. Coach Gordon could only hope that everyone could adjust their mentality during these three days.
Nie Chuan continued to move forward with Reese on his back.
"You look sad. Are you afraid of KSU?" Reese asked.
His voice was soft, and his breath lingered around Nie Chuan's neck.
"No." Nie Chuan replied.
"It doesn't matter if you're afraid. Just remember my weight and help me accomplish what I want to accomplish," Reese said.
Nie Chuan's heart trembled slightly.
Does he really have such ability?
It was none other than Raven Harvey!
The author has something to say: Since Reese can't deal with Raven Harvey, of course Nie Chuan will be the one to deal with him!
It’s time for Nie Chuan to try out the feeling of a small forward, try hard to score, fighting!
