Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 243 The decisive battle of inside giants!
A simple cooperation from Lingnan High School easily broke through Hainan's defense. With Kenji Fujima scoring the first three-pointer, the difference between the two teams also came to 3 points.Since the victory condition given by Coach Tianoka is which team leads by 15 points first, Kenji Fujima's three-pointer put a lot of pressure on Hainan.

"Ah Mu!" Serving the ball from the backcourt of Hainan High School, Dazheng Sifu greeted Mu Shenyi in a low voice, and gave Mu Shenyi a look.

His idea is very simple, he wants to quickly tie the score with a three-pointer.

Mu Shenyi nodded slightly, and while dribbling the ball towards the frontcourt, he observed the defensive formation of Lingnan High School.On the defensive end, Lingnan is simply man-to-man.Takasago Kazuma and Maekawa Daiki are guarded by Hanakata and Uozumi Jun respectively, Xiandao finds Shenzong Ichiro, and Shinomiya Tianno looks at Dazheng Shifuku, as for Mu Shenyi, it is Fujima Kenji who is in charge .

"Man-to-man against Hainan, it is indeed very suitable for the current lineup of Lingnan High School."

"Hainan's strength lies in Maekawa Daiki and Mushen. Although Hanakata and Fujima on the defensive side are slightly weaker than these two, they are more than enough to slow down the opponent's attack speed and interfere with the opponent's attack."

"If Xiandao and Shinomiya Tianye seal Shen Zongichiro and Daizheng Shifu to death, Hainan's offensive will be delayed for a long time."

"In terms of rebounds, Lingnan has an overwhelming advantage. I'm afraid this game will be decided soon."

Mitsui Shou looked at Hainan's defensive formation and deduced the direction of the game.He is not optimistic about Hainan, and everyone present is actually not optimistic about Hainan.

"Hoo!" After Mu Shenyi entered the frontcourt, with the help of a pick-and-roll from Dazheng Sifu, he quickly passed the basketball in his hand to Shenzong Ichiro on the side. After the basketball shot, Mu Shenyi quickly cut to the inside, and Lingnan On the high school side, they also switched defenses quickly. Shinomiya Tianye chased Mu Shenyi and entered the inside line, while Fujima switched to the front of Daimasa Shifuku.

As soon as Shenzong Ichiro, who received the basketball and was about to pass the ball in, raised his hand, he saw the figure of Xiandao in front of him move, and instantly blocked him.Shinmune Ichiro, who had no chance to pass inside and had no way to shoot, could only pass the ball sideways to Daimasa Shifuku, but his passing intention was too obvious.

Aware of this, Fujima stepped forward directly, stopped in front of Daimasa Shifuku who was about to catch the ball, and completed the steal.

When the basketball started, Kenji Fujima quickly dribbled the ball forward, and Xiandao also started quickly. Shinomiya Tianno, who had just crossed the three-point line and hadn't taken a few steps, also turned around quickly and accelerated suddenly.

Lingnan High School's fast break was very fast. Fujima, who was advancing with the ball, was caught by the chasing Daimasa Shifuku, but in the next second, Fujima made a back pass and sent the ball directly to Xiandao on the side, and Xiandao didn't want to catch the ball at all. It means that when the ball is passed, a seemingly random shot on the ball directly changes the trajectory of the basketball.

The ball was directly sent into the hands of Shinomiya Tianye, and the speed of Shinomiya Tianye who got the basketball was a little faster, and he quickly entered the basket, and then he made an understatement dunk, and poured the ball into the basket .

Lingnan High School's smooth defensive counterattack easily pulled the point difference to 5 points.

After the score, everyone in Lingnan clapped each other and began to retreat.

"It seems that it is not easy for Hainan's ball to move freely in front of Lingnan."

"Shenzong Ichiro's level is a bit lower, and Daimasa Sifu is also watched by Shinomiya Tianye. On the offensive end, once Mu Shenyi takes the ball, the ball may not be returned so easily."

"The gap between the two teams is bigger than I expected."

Jinguji Budao looked at Hainan who was serving again in the court, shook his head and said softly.Hainan's problem is not with Mu Shenyi, but with the other two outside players.

When attacking, if the outside players have no way to give some support to Mu Shenyi, Mu Shenyi will have a very difficult game.

"How will we deal with Lingnan later?"

Looking at Hainan High School on the field, Mitsui Shou seemed to see Shohoku in the next game.If Miyagi Ryota is holding the ball in Xiangbei, the situation they face may not be much better than that of Hainan.However, Xiangbei has an advantage over Hainan in that they have powerful scorers.It's just that if you play like this, you will eat a scorer's physical fitness.

"I don't know, let's check first."

"Miyagi, in our match between Xiangbei and Lingnan, the winner is up to you!"

"As long as you are not suppressed by Fujima, we still have a chance to fight Lingnan!"

Takeshi Jinguji hugged Miyagi's shoulder beside him, and whispered in the other's ear.Miyagi obviously also knew about their situation in Xiangbei. Hearing this, he nodded. There was no fear in his expression, his expression was indifferent, and he appeared extremely confident.

Since the national competition, after such a long period of training, Miyagi Ryota's personal ability has also been greatly improved.In addition to the enhanced mid-range shooting ability, Miyagi's dribbling level has also improved.

Having been teammates with Budo for so long, Miyagi Ryota finally learned some luck skills from Budo.In the past, he believed that speed was everything, as long as he was fast enough, no matter what kind of opponent he was, he could break through.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with this, but the reality is that Miyagi's speed is not so fast that even top defenders can't react.Whether it's Fujima from Lingnan or Mu Shenyi from Hainan, they can both keep up.

For this reason, Miyagi Ryota also specifically asked Jinguji Budo how to do it, because the same extremely fast Jinguji Budo can often break through opponents with the same terrifying speed.

And Bu Dao's answer is also very simple, only two words - rhythm.

After that, Miyagi worked hard on the rhythm changes between dribbles and marches during training.In this regard, Miyagi Ryota really has some talents. In just a few months, Miyagi's dribbling level has been greatly improved. At the same time, with the improvement of physical fitness, Miyagi The ability to resist is also much stronger.

At least in the Shonhoku team, Miyagi's confrontation is even stronger with Kogure Koen who is taller and heavier than him.

On the court, Hainan High School, who lost consecutive goals, finally stumbled and scored a goal.Mushenyi was also used as the starting point of the attack. This time, Maekawa Daiki stepped forward to pick and roll to assist Mushenyi to break through, and the breakthrough Mushenyi shot directly from a high position, and the basketball bounced twice on the rim , Falling into the Nets.

The point difference between the two teams came to 3 points, and Lingnan High School launched another attack.

Xiandao slowly advanced with the ball, and the Lingnan people entered the frontcourt ahead of time. As Xiandao approached the three-point line, Fujima Kenji slid the bottom line to attract the attention of Hainan. Down.

Seeing this, Xiandao directly threw the ball high. With his height, Mu Shenyi couldn't block such a pass at all.

And Tianye Shinomiya, who went straight to the basket, looked at the basketball flying over his head. He didn't pay attention to Hainan's insiders at all.Although Kazuma Takasago in Hainan wanted to stop him and made great efforts, he only became the background board for Shinomiya Tianye's dunk.

The point difference once again widened to five points. Although the game only played a few balls, the upstart in the national competition and the champion Lingnan showed overwhelming strength.In the next few rounds, Hainan High School's offense struggled. Although they occasionally scored goals, they missed more shots than made shots.

Mu Shenyi who made a breakthrough would often attract Shinomiya Tianye's supplementary defense, but in the air battle with Shinomiya Tianye, Mu Shenyi was completely at a disadvantage, not to mention the blocked goal, and he also hit the iron several times.

The other players in Hainan also performed mediocrely. I thought that Hainan's insiders could have a slight advantage in the face of Huaxing and Yuzhu.But I didn't expect that after the experience of the competition, Huaxing and Yuzhu's level has been greatly improved compared to before.At the basket, Maekawa Daiki couldn't take much advantage at all, and Takasago was killed by Yuzu in the rebound competition.

The match between Hainan High School and Lingnan lasted less than 10 minutes, and was directly crushed by Lingnan with a score of 21:6, becoming the first team to fail the challenge in this training camp.

With Hainan losing the game, Lingnan showed an overwhelming advantage. The third mixed team that signed up for the competition couldn't stand it, and didn't even play the ball, and directly declared their surrender.

"Hehe, one team loses, and one team surrenders."

"Xiangbei, you are the last one to challenge today, go up."

"My players, the hands are really hot, there is no need to rest, let's start the game directly."

After the Hainan people walked off the court, Coach Tian Gang yelled at the Xiangbei people.As he said, the players in Lingnan didn't sweat much, and they were all in peak form.

"Applause!!!!"

When they heard that Lingnan's next opponent was Xiangbei High School, the Lingnan students watching the game booed again.The huge sound waves overwhelmed everyone's voices and reached the ears of everyone in Xiangbei.

"Look, these people in Lingnan are cheering for us!"

Hearing the booing of everyone in Lingnan, Mitsui Shou led the Xiangbei players into the field.Unlike those people in Hainan, everyone in Xiangbei remained calm amidst the tsunami-like boos.The voices of the audience had no effect on them at all.

Such a scene is already a small scene for them in Xiangbei.

As a dark horse in the national competition, Xiangbei received a lot of boos before he emerged.But it is a pity that most of the teams that underestimated them in Xiangbei have already lost to them.

Even if he wins them, Lingnan in front of him, dare to underestimate them in Xiangbei?

The audience is just joining in the fun, and the master will not underestimate Xiangbei High School.

"I haven't played against Xiangbei for a few months. In today's Kanagawa, only Xiangbei can compete with our Lingnan."

"It's really troublesome if the team is too strong! There are not many opponents who can invite practice matches."

Coach Tian Gang watched the Xiangbei people walk into the stadium, and the tone of his speech gave off a feeling of loneliness as snow.Those who knew knew that he was in Versailles, but those who didn't know thought this guy "lost his love".

The indifferent expressions and stable emotions of the Xiangbei players were noticed by everyone.The Lingnan students who were watching the game booed for a while and saw that Xiangbei and the others didn't show much. They felt that they were bored, and the booing gradually stopped.

The players of the two teams didn't have any nonsense, they directly settled in the middle circle, ready to jump the ball, and at the same time, Coach Tian Gang, who had been sitting on the sidelines watching the game, also picked up a document from the side, took out I picked up a pen and prepared to write down something.

"Beep!"

With the sound of a whistle, Akagi Takenori and Uozumi jumped up to grab the ball while drinking.

Today, Takenori Akagi is in pretty good form. On the jump ball, he beat the two-meter-long mermaid Sumi Jun and took the first shot of the basketball.The basketball fell, and Mitsui Shou held it in his hands. Mitsui Shou, who caught the ball, did not drop the ball. He held the ball and waited until everyone in Lingnan began to retreat before giving the ball to Miyagi.

The Lingnan people who returned to the defense settled very quickly. Yuzhu and Huaxing were separated on both sides of the paint area, and the other three players were distributed outside the three-point line. The defense was quite scattered, and the gap in the middle area was very large.

"This defensive formation... focuses on our perimeter."

"Lingnan is really mature now! There is absolutely no possibility of stealing the plane"

Looking at Lingnan's defense, Jinguji Budao was a little surprised.In this era, most teams' defense will be concentrated on the inside, and the defense on the outside is actually not very strong.

However, this defensive lineup of Lingnan High School is obviously specially trained, and it targets teams that use outside shooting as the main scoring method, such as Xiangbei High School.

"Miyagi! Pass the ball."

Facing such a defensive formation, the best way is of course to break through.As Miyagi Ryota dribbled the ball into the frontcourt, Jinguji Budou quickly ran towards Miyagi along the three-point arc, shouting as he ran.

Miyagi's shot was not very smooth, the angle of the basketball hitting the ground into Budo's hands was very poor, after Budo took the ball and adjusted the position of the basketball in his hand, the figure of Shinomiya Tanno had already appeared beside Budo.

With the ball in hand, Wu Dao swept the ball and turned to face the frame, followed by a simple tentative step and fake shooting, and then quickly dropped the ball to break through.

Although Shinomiya Tianye on the defensive side moved a bit slower, he did not lose his position. He followed Budo and marched to the middle distance.

Seeing that Wu Dao couldn't get rid of the defense, he quickly stopped and pulled back, flipped his wrist, and directly hit the ball to the ground.

The basketball clung to Shinomiya Tano's heels and bounced back into the hands of insider Takenori Akagi.

"Huh?" Shinomiya Tianye let out a bit of surprise, he had never met Jinguji Budou, who had advanced to such a position, to pass the ball, even if he passed the ball, he actually passed it to the inside.

Shonhoku High School’s offensive points are only Jinguji Budou and Mitsui Hisashi. Shinomiya Tiano knew this early on, because when faced with Budou’s pass, the first choice was to stare at Jinguji Budou instead of entering. Inside defense.

"Boom!" There was a muffled sound, and Akagi Takenori, who caught the ball, dropped the ball and hit it with his back. His body was hard on Uozumi Jun's body. The two big men pressed against each other, making the audience near the baseline scream There was a low whimper.

Akagi Takenori's footsteps under the basket are very heavy, and his back hits land very solidly. While being solid, his footsteps have lost a lot of variation.

But Akagi's strength is very good, with his back against Yuzu, he actually pushed Yuzu back half a step. Akagi, who got the chance, quickly turned over and hooked for a layup, and the basketball smashed into the net.

"Oh!!"

Akagi, who scored the goal, let out a roar. His target was not Jun Uosumi who was facing up, but the audience on the sidelines.The boos of those people more or less affected Akagi's mentality, this Akagi who has always been rational, has also become unrestrained at this moment.

"Oh?"

"Xiangbei. Is this a change in style of play?"

Coach Tian Gang on the sidelines wanted to enjoy the matchup between Jinguji Budo and Shinomiya Tianye, but he didn't expect that it was Akagi who scored the first goal on the Xiangbei side, which surprised him and raised his eyebrows keen interest.
