Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 213 Body is the foundation of sports competition!

With the successful counterattack of Lingnan High School, the rest area of ​​Xiangbei High School was already silent.

Coach Anxi frowned slightly, looking at the court with a solemn expression, a star was already hanging.

The back line collapsed, how to play this ball?
Coach Anxi played point guard when he was young, and he clearly knows that Xiangbei High School is facing huge challenges today.Jinguji Budou rarely had the chance to catch the ball under Shinomiya Tiano's full marking, and Miyagi Ryota, who was defended by Fujima, obviously had no way to seize the fleeting passing opportunity.

This caused the connection between Jinguji Budao and Miyagi Ryota to be interrupted, and Xiangbei High School lost a ball-handling player like Jinguji Budao, and the offense immediately became stumbling.

The offense and defense switched, and the ball came to Shohoku High School. Miyagi Ryota knew that he could not play the ball freely in front of Fujima. Similarly, Mitsui, who had been focusing on the court, was obviously aware of it. got to the point.

He didn't need to be reminded by his teammates. During this round of offense, he didn't choose to sink to the bottom line, but quickly came to Fujima's side to cover Miyagi Ryota.

With the support of his teammates, Miyagi successfully broke through Kenji Fujima's defense, but after breaking through, he rushed directly in front of Xiandao and was covered by Xiandao.

In front of Fujima, there is still no way to successfully throw the ball, and the higher immortality than Fujima is already a hurdle that Miyagi Ryota has no way to overcome anyway.

Without any hesitation, the moment Miyagi saw Xiandao, he immediately passed the ball back to Mitsui Shou, giving up the idea of ​​continuing to break through.

"Snapped!"

Starting with the basketball, Mitsui Shou bent over and calmed down, his eyes quickly passed Fujima's face, and then looked at Jinguji Budao.It's a pity that at this moment Jinguji Budou is leading Shinomiya Tianno to run on the court.

Although Ryota Miyagi tried to cover Budo without the ball after he hit the ball, his height and weight are really not enough, and the quality of the cover is quite poor. The distance between him and Wu Dao couldn't be opened for a while.

For Budo, it is much easier to break through Shinomiya Dano's defense with the ball than to throw off the opponent without the ball.Running without the ball depends on the cooperation of teammates, but when playing with the ball, Shinomiya Tianno on the opposite side would never dare to be so sticky, because the opponent still needs to prevent him from making an emergency stop jumper.

"Little San, come by yourself!"

While Shouting, Jinguji Budou led Shinomiya Tanano's defense force to sink to the bottom corner on the opposite side from Mugure, and then he had no intention of moving any further.Seeing this, Shinomiya Tianye didn't dare to relax his vigilance, his eyes fixed on Budao, and he just barely used the corner of his eyes to observe the alignment situation on Mitsui Shou's side.

"Go to Miyagi Ryota beyond the three-point line, there is no threat!"

Xiandao and Fujima switched defenses. At first, Xiandao followed Miyagi to a high position, but Miyagi saw that there was no chance in the middle distance and decisively returned to the three-point line, but Xiandao did not follow up. He gave Miyagi a judgment in his heart, and then moved The attention is on Mitsui Shou who holds the ball and Budo in the bottom corner.

"Mitsui Hisashi, the long-lost duel!"

Kenji Fujima opened his arms, looked at Mitsui Hisashi in front of him, and said softly.It wasn't the first time he and Mitsui Shou had played against each other. Last year, before the Jinguji Budo players entered Xiangbei, the two of them had played against each other in the county competition in the first year of high school.

That time, Fujima was still in Xiangyang, and the victory in that match belonged to Xiangyang.

Hisashi Mitsui scored 30+ points in that game, but he still failed to lead the weak Xiangbei to break through Xiangyang's blockade and enter the national competition.

"You couldn't guard me that time, and this time, you can't guard me either!"

Mitsui Shou looked at Fujima in front of him, held the ball and made three threats, and said at the same time.Fujima was unmoved, he didn't mean to move his body, and Fujima didn't refute Mitsui's words. In his opinion, it's meaningless to talk about it.

"In one year, Mitsui's height has increased so much. If you want to defend, you can only start when he is dribbling. When he shoots, it will not be so easy to stop him with my height."

Kenji Fujima looked at Mitsui Hisashi who was bending over in front of him, and thought to himself.Suddenly, Mitsui Shou, who was holding the ball, kicked back with his right foot and broke through to the left of Fujima. Well, just when the basketball drops and starts to rebound.

"Huh!" Mitsui Shou hummed lightly, his center of gravity sank again, his right hand quickly reached down, grabbed the basketball and made a backhand, quickly changed the direction of the assault, and broke through to the right side of Fujima, at the same time When dribbling, Mitsui's body was close to Fujima, preventing Fujima from turning back to defend in the first place.

After a face-to-face meeting, Mitsui Shou quickly broke through Fujima's defense and crossed the three-point line.

In terms of height and strength, Mitsui Shou and Koichi are no longer comparable. Compared with Mitsui Shou's growth, Fujima's height and weight have not increased much this year.The gap between the two is reflected at this moment.

"Damn it!" Fujima cursed in a low voice, and quickly turned back to defend. At the same time, Xiandao, who had been paying attention here, quickly made up the defense, and at the same time whispered:
"Change defense!" Although Fujima received the order a little unwillingly, he immediately changed direction and cut off the passing route between Mitsui Hisashi and Miyagi.But he is still very close to Mitsui Shou. If Mitsui Shou wants to break through the Immortal Way, then Fujima will have a chance to steal from the side.

Lingnan's defensive changes were seen by Mitsui Shou. Although he broke through Fujima's block, Mitsui Shou was also a little afraid of the opponent's stealing ability. Facing Xiandao's supplementary defense at this time, he also dispelled the idea of ​​​​continuing to break through .

An emergency stop, a close ball, and a long-range jumper shot. In less than a second, Mitsui Shou completed this series of actions. The basketball flew out of his hands and flew towards the basket.

"What a quick shot!" Hisashi Mitsui adopted a vertical shot, and the speed of the shot was very fast. Although Xiandao realized that the opponent might be about to shoot, he was still a bit slow when he blocked it.

"Shua!" This time, Mitsui's shot was very steady, and the basketball went directly into the net with a soft sound.

The long-lost score made the off-court Xiangbei's substitutes heave a sigh of relief.

Mitsui Shou's mid-range shot continued the firepower for Xiangbei High School, and also set the tone for the second half of the Xiangbei High School game.

Shonhoku High School's main offensive force has been replaced, and Mitsui Shou is somewhat different from Budo. Mitsui Shou, who did not attack much in the first half, is very physically fit.Hisashi Mitsui also knew that it was difficult for Miyagi Ryota to play the ball in front of Fujima, so he was by Miyagi's side when he advanced with the ball in the offensive round of Shonhoku.

Soon after entering the frontcourt, before Fujima and Sendo defended, Miyagi Ryota would give the ball to Mitsui Kotobuki, and at the same time take the initiative to get stuck in the position of Kaxiandao after the ball, so that Mitsui Shou could dribble the ball close to Mitsui Sub-line.

For Mitsui Shou, as long as he entered the range and attacked, it was considered an easy task.

In the 9 minutes of the second half, the score of the two teams came to 64:60. Lingnan High School took a 4-point lead and held Xiangbei firmly.

In these 9 minutes, Mitsui Shou made 4 of 2 three-pointers and hit a mid-range shot at the same time, scoring 8 points. There was also a perfect cooperation between Jinguji Budou and Mitsui Shou. With the assist of Mitsui Shou, Budao also made a hit A mid-range shot scored two points.

The game entered the second half, Lingnan and Xiangbei both strengthened their defense and slowed down their offensive rhythm.

Lingnan, relying on the excellent performance of Fujima and Sendao, scored 16 points in the second half, of which Fujima scored 4 points, Xiandao 8 points, and Shinomiya Tianye also scored 4 goals and scored [-] points.

Jinguji Budo, who performed brilliantly in the first half, was misfired on the offensive end under the full defense of Shinomiya Tianno.And Shinomiya Tianye also put his physical strength on the defensive end, and the number of times the offensive end participated is very small.

At this moment, the audience's focus was on Mitsui Shou from Xiangbei and Xiandao from Lingnan.

On the court, the offensive round of Xiangbei High School.

Hisashi Mitsui dribbled the ball and slowly approached the three-point line. In the distance in front of him, Xiandao was only a little heavy and quickly leaned forward.

Xiangbei High School's offense headed by Mitsui Shou has been playing for a while, and Mitsui Shousendo has also adapted to the ball-handling style.Mitsui is very good at rapid shooting, and his three-point shooting rate is quite good. Facing Mitsui, Akira Sendo did not dare to put his center of gravity too low, and did not dare to let Mitsui have a chance to shoot.

But while being wary of Mitsui's projection, Xiandao didn't dare to get too close, because Mitsui's breakthrough speed is not slow.

"You are so tall, how can you prevent Xiaosan's breakthrough?" Jinguji Budao glanced at Mitsui Shou in the gap between running positions, looked at the high center of gravity, whispered in his heart, and quickly led Shinomiya Tianye to the ground. Bottom line, he knew that Mitsui Shou was going to break through.

Sure enough, Mitsui Shou, who was close to the three-point line, quickly dropped the ball and rushed in. In the blink of an eye, he was already level with Xiandao.

"It's not that he's fast, it's that my pursuit is slow!" Xiandao began to speed up the pursuit, but when he came to Mitsui's side and was about to catch up, Mitsui suddenly stopped and looked at the basket.

At this time, Xiandao doesn't care whether the opponent is a fake or not, because Xiandao knows that if he doesn't make any defensive moves, the fake will become a real shot.Immortal followed closely behind Mitsui Shou and stopped, raising one hand high.

However, Xiandao had just stopped, and Mitsui Shou took advantage of the situation to join the ball. After the ball was closed, Mitsui Shou took a side step, and the distance from Xiandao was less than half a meter, and he shot directly.

The sudden stop and side step combined with the pitch shot made Mitsui Shou's shot very fast. Although Xiandao was prepared, his feet seemed to be filled with lead when he stopped suddenly, and there was no way to stop Mitsui Shou.

The basketball crossed the court directly and fell into the net precisely.

As Mitsui Shou scored another goal, cheers erupted from the stands, and the score on the scoreboard also came to 64:62.

"Unexpectedly, Xiangbei High School can play so fiercely in Lingnan High School."

"After Jinguji Budo misfired, there are still players from Xiangbei High School who can stand up and continue to attack."

"This Mitsui Shou didn't get the ball a few times in the first half. I didn't expect him to be such a good player."

Mitsui Shou didn't have much performance on the stage of the national competition. Many audiences were not familiar with Mitsui Shou. It was only when they played against a strong team like Lingnan that the audience realized that there were actually players like Mitsui Shou in Xiangbei High School.

"The foundation of this player Mitsui Shou is also quite good, and this player's shooting method is different. His shooting speed is very fast, combined with the emergency stop fake action, and that kind of terrible shooting rate, which makes his offense become very good. Very sharp."

"Zebei, if you were facing such an opponent, what would you do?"

In the stands, Goro Domoto looked at Hisashi Mitsui who scored consecutively, turned his head and asked Zebei.

"Let's defend like this. Xiandao has actually done a good job at this point. It's not because of poor technique or mistakes in defensive judgment that he can't defend, but simply because his body can't keep up with Mitsui Shou's movements."

"As the offensive side, Mitsui Shou himself has an advantage over the defensive side, and he and Xiandao are not much different in height and speed, which makes the offensive side's advantage very important."

"Mitsui Shou's advantage is outside shooting. Facing this kind of player, if the opponent has already shot, unless the defensive player's hard power exceeds the opponent by a large margin, he will not be able to defend."

"Now Mitsui Shou feels hot. Lingnan, unless a player who crushes Mitsui Shou in all aspects in terms of height, strength, bounce, speed, reaction, and ball skills comes out to defend him, otherwise he will not be able to stop him."

"Or, send more players to defend him."

Faced with Domoto Goro’s inquiry, Zebei Eiji spread his hands helplessly. His own offensive style is very similar to Mitsui’s, but his range is not as far as Mitsui’s. At the same time, his speed and strength are stronger than Mitsui’s .

It is normal for Xiandao to be unable to stop Mitsui Shou, who has already voted.

"The players who crushed Mitsui Shou in all directions to defend him? Although Lingnan High School has such players, but at this moment, they can't escape."

Domoto Goro murmured, looking at the court.

Lingnan High School advanced, and Shinomiya Tianye ran at the back of the team, walking slowly, panting heavily, and was recovering his physical fitness with the help of Lingnan's advancing kung fu.

On the northern side of Xiangu, Jinguji Budao settled down early, leaning on his knees with his hands, supporting his torso with his hands, his face was full of exhaustion.Sweat seeps from the skin, runs down the cheeks, gathers on the chin, and drips to the floor.

"Fortunately, Xiaosan has enough physical fitness to play with the ball, otherwise, Xiangbei may have been defeated."

"That bastard is holding on to me. This bastard's physical strength hasn't been exhausted yet!"

Bu Dao looked at Shinomiya Tano who was slowly entering the front court, wiped off his sweat with one hand, and quickly walked towards Shinomiya Tano.He had already switched defenses with Konobu Kogure, and Budao knew that Mugure couldn't stop Shinomiya Tanno, and even against Mugure, Shinomiya Tano couldn't expend much effort on the offensive end.

In order to be able to wear down Shinomiya Tano's physical strength, Budo had to come up to defend himself. When facing him, Shinomiya Tano needed a lot of energy.

In front of him, Shinomiya Tanno approached the three-point line, looking at Jinguji Budo in front of him, feeling a little depressed in his heart.

"This guy played so aggressively in the first half, and he ran very diligently in the second half. Why is he still physically strong now? Under my defense, shouldn't he go down and rest a long time ago!"

"I don't believe it, I can't drag you down, bastard!"

Shinomiya Tianye was secretly ruthless, the duel between him and Budo had changed from a real sword and gun on the court to a competition of background and foundation.

The duel between the two has returned to the original form of sports competition, a contest of physical fitness!

On the field, the two exploded each other, and it was hard to tell the winner. Now, it depends on who will be the first to fail in this kind of high-intensity competition!

In the second half, the focus of the stadium was indeed on Mitsui Hisashi and Sendo, but Jinguji Budao and Shinomiya Tano were both very clear. If they fell first, the team might face defeat.

The winner of the match actually lies with the two of them.
