Chapter 35: Take Down

After Gan Guoyang hit a shocking long-range shot, Tiger Team's coach Larry Orwell could only call for a timeout.

The score gap was widening, and the key issue was that the Tiger Team was becoming more and more confused as the game went on—they couldn't break the Shui Zhong Team's zone defense.

For high school players, whether it's guarding a zone defense or breaking one, it's not an easy task.

The Shui Zhong Team maintained the tenacity of their zone defense with their good discipline, as well as daily hard training.

As time passed, the Tiger Team's spirit before the game was gradually deflating, and Orwell could feel the frustration on everyone's faces.

How should he motivate the players? It was difficult, because there was no enmity between the two teams, and this wasn't a key game.

It was crucial for the Shui Zhong Team, but for Fremont High School, winning or losing was more a matter of face.
