Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 349 You Fight Well!
During the timeout, Coach Anzai's instructions to Budou and Mitsui Shou were not to find a way to win the game, but to ask Jinguji Budao and Mitsui Shou to release water appropriately.

This was something Jinguji Budou didn't think of at the beginning. Budou wanted to make a quick decision, quickly get rid of Lvfeng High School, and after gaining an absolute advantage, take a good rest in the end.He and Mike Okita have also had several confrontations, and they have a clear understanding of each other's strength.

From Budo's point of view, Mike Okita has no way to be his opponent, the gap between the two is obvious.

It's just that Coach Anzai really doesn't want to let go of such a good opportunity. Although Mike Okita is not as good as Jinguji Budo, he can be regarded as a four-star high school student in the United States no matter what.As an opponent of martial arts, it may indeed be a little tender, but as an opponent of Mitsui Hisashi and Rukawa Kaede, it is just right.

For the growth of a player, it is obviously not enough to rely on training alone. Excellent opponents are also indispensable for the growth of a player.

A good competitive environment is very conducive to the growth of players.

China's table tennis is so strong, not only because of system construction, nor because people of yellow race really have an advantage over other races in this event.It's just because the environment in which the players grow up is extremely brutal. Every player who is in his early years has won countless talented opponents before he can get into the position smoothly.

The same is true for American basketball.

After countless talented players have undergone fierce competition, the real strong can stand out.

Coach Anzai hopes that Kaede Rukawa and Hisashi Mitsui can play against more strong players, but in the current high school basketball environment in Kanagawa, strong opponents are hard to come by.Mike Okita and his Lvfeng High School are rare opponents!

"Since you said so, coach, I'll switch defenses with Xiaosan first."

"Let Xiao San feel the strength of a 'star player' first."

Wu Dao also nodded after hearing Coach Anxi's words, and immediately agreed.To be honest, Budo doesn't have much interest in Mike Okita now.

However, when Mitsui Shou heard this, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, give this opportunity to that kid Rukawa Feng."

"I trained in the United States for a while, and I know exactly what an opponent of that level looks like."

"Although I didn't fight Mike Okita directly, I think he and I should just blow each other up."

"His physical fitness and jumping are better than mine. Once he rushes inside, I can't stop him."

"But at the same time, if I want to attack, he can't stop me."

"Compared to me, this opponent is more suitable for Rukawa Feng."

"Budo and I will escort Rukawa Feng on the field!"

As Mitsui Shou said, he turned his head and looked at Rukawa Kaede, who was standing and resting with his hands on his hips, with a smile on his face.

In fact, Mitsui Shou still has something in his heart that he didn't say, that is his current grade!Compared to Rukawa Feng, who is in the first grade, he, a senior in the third grade, can already be regarded as an old man in Xiangbei.

After finishing this year, Mitsui Shou will go to university. At the same time, Mitsui Shou is actually planning to go to the outside world to have a look. His family members are already contacting him with American schools. Through some economic means, In fact, Mitsui Shou has also received commitments from some American universities and colleges.It can be said that Mitsui Shou has half a foot in American college basketball.

After he left, the future of Xiangbei still depends on a first-year player like Kaede Rukawa.

The growth of Rukawa Maple is very important to Xiangbei!
"What's so modest about this kind of thing?!"

"The competition time is still very long, Rukawa Feng will go to test the water first, and you will go up when it is almost done."

"The opponent didn't just play for a few minutes."

Jinguji Budao didn't know what Mitsui Shou was thinking, and he couldn't figure out what to be entangled in this kind of thing, so he patted Mitsui Shou on the back and said immediately.

While the two were talking, the 1-minute pause passed quietly.

As the referee's whistle sounded, players from Xiangbei High School and Lufeng High School also returned to the court.

I don't know what tricks Lufeng's Dachuan coach gave these players. The Lufeng players who returned to the court seemed to have regained their confidence. The previous team conflicts seemed to have completely disappeared after the timeout.

Bu Dao saw the expressions of these Green Wind players, touched his chin, and suddenly laughed.

"Alright, if you just give up like this, this game really won't be interesting!"

"Hey, Rukawa Feng, I'll switch defenses with you, that yellow hair, leave it to you!"

The Xiangbei people who returned to the court took their positions in their own half. Before the timeout, they Xiangbei had just attacked and scored. Taking advantage of the time when Lufeng High School organized the offense, Budao immediately shouted at Rukawa Feng.

Rukawa Feng, whose name was called, turned to look at Jinguji Budao with a puzzled expression on his face.

Although he really wanted to confront Mike Okita, Rukawa Kaede could tell that Mike Okita was obviously going for Jinguji Budo.In the battle between the team's ace and the team's ace, how could Wu Dao suddenly let him play? !

Hard to do.
While Rukawa Feng was thinking, Budou had already looked at the direction Tsurumi Keiji was going, and moved in advance in that direction.Mike Okita, who entered the frontcourt, was unmarked.

Rukawa Kaede realized this, and immediately diverted his footsteps. When Mike Okita was about to approach the three-point line, he came to Mike Okita and marked Mike Okita.

"Um?!"

"Young man, what are you doing here?! I'm not looking for you, get out of the way!"

Mike Okita saw Rukawa Kaede standing in front of him, immediately frowned, turned his head to look at Jinguji Budo in the distance, and said with some displeasure.

Hearing this, Rukawa Feng didn't speak, but turned his head to look at Jinguji Budao, and happened to see Jinguji Budao making a "great" encouraging gesture towards him.Then he turned his head and replied lightly:

"It's enough for me to deal with you."

Rukawa Kaede's words did not anger Mike Okita, he just glanced at Gongji Budo from a distance, then his eyes fell on Rukawa Kaede, and took a deep look at Rukawa Kaede.

At the same time, Seiji Tsurumi held the ball and approached the top of the arc. The defender, Histomi Mitsui, did not press up. Instead, he stood within the three-point line at the top of the arc, stretched his arms casually, and assumed a defensive posture.

It's just that his defensive posture is full of flaws!
However, Tsurumi Seiji, who is facing Mitsui Hisashi, is obviously not the kind of player who can seize the opponent's flaws and break through.Lufeng's point guard is really a pure "point" guard.

Hisashi Mitsui opened the gap, but Seiji Tsurumi passed the ball directly to Mike Okita.

The latter took the ball, straightened his waist slightly, and raised the ball high above his head, while Rukawa Kaede in front of him had already lowered his center of gravity, ready to deal with Mike Okita's breakthrough.Looking at Rukawa Kaede's defensive posture, Mike Okita did not have any underestimation mentality.

While stepping on his left front with his right foot, the basketball he was holding high was also received by his waist.His action immediately aroused Rukawa Kaede's vigilance. Just as Rukawa Kaede adjusted his defensive position, Mike Okita suddenly withdrew his foot, dropped the ball on his right side, and made a posture of rushing to the right side.

Rukawa Feng hurriedly adjusted his body position, but at this moment, Mike Okita changed direction directly in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, he slipped past Rukawa Feng's side and rushed towards the inside line quickly.

"Ah! Stinky fox! Don't let him come here so easily!"

Hanamichi Sakuragi under the basket shouted immediately when he saw this, but he didn't mean to let Mike Okita break through, and quickly moved towards Mike Okita to defend.

"Well, what a strong momentum!"

Sakuragi Hanadao who was rushing towards him had a ferocious expression on his face. Mike Okita took a look at Jinguji Budo's position from the corner of his eye. Seeing that Budo was far away, he also relaxed. , A direct mid-range shot.

"Don't think about it!!!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi yelled loudly, and flew up directly. At the moment of take-off, Yinggi Hanamichi's calf muscles were completely tense, and the bounce was maximized.

A big hand covered Mike Okita, covering the sky and the sun.

"It's so high!" Mike Okita, who was still relaxed, was startled when his eyes darkened.

When he broke through, Sakuragi Hanadao was obviously far away. He felt that the opponent should not be able to keep up with him, and the opponent's defense speed exceeded Mike Okita's expectations, and the opponent's bounce also surprised him.

Even a well-informed "four-star high school student" like him was surprised by Yingmu Huadao's bouncing at this moment!

After a moment of hesitation, Mike Okita, who had raised the ball a second ago and was about to shoot, decisively gave up the shot under Sakuragi Hanamichi's defense. inside.

It can only be said that he is indeed a talented young man who can make a name for himself in a place like the United States. Jinguji Budo couldn't help but marvel at his resilience in critical moments.

"Crack!" The basketball fell into Tetsuya Naito's hands. Naito, who was vacant, blew the ball once, and turned around to face the basket violently, about to dunk.

And Nango Koichiro, who was not far in front of him, had already reacted, jumped up almost at the same time, and put his hands on the basketball.

However.
"Roar!"

Following Naito's shout, Nango Koichiro's body was bounced off by the opponent while in the air. The next second, there was a loud noise at the basket, and Naito directly dunked the ball into the basket among.

A violent buckle that breaks through the defense head-on.

The huge impact made Nango Koichiro unsteady when he landed, and fell directly to the ground. Facing Naito Tetsuya, Nango Koichiro seemed to have returned to the time when he was facing Mori Shigehiro.

The terrifying power of the other party made him feel a strong sense of powerlessness.

Lufeng High School has been suppressed from the beginning until now, and finally, with Naito Tetsuya's dunk points, the students of Lufeng have a window to vent.

The overwhelming cheers poured into the stadium, and at this moment, the players of Lufeng finally felt the feeling of playing at home.

Before, the dead silence above the stands made them think that they were playing an away game, and the silence of the audience also affected the state of the players.But now it's better, the players of Lufeng have become active, and the audience watching the game has finally been mobilized.

"Good! Mike!"

"The ball was handled beautifully, even better than I expected!"

"We must keep this kind of energy, let's go all out!"

Coach Dachuan off the court clenched his fists excitedly, and Huili, who was sitting next to him, finally softened a lot when he saw the Lufeng team score a goal.

It's just that this situation obviously didn't satisfy her, and after the players scored a goal, she shouted loudly towards the field:

"Come on!"

"Recover the score! Our Green Wind must be the strongest!"

Wheely's shouts led the others again, and after a brief silence, the cheers became even more enthusiastic.

"Tch, it's just a goal."

"What are you shouting for?!"

"Shut up now!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi curled her lips in displeasure, and after serving the ball from the baseline, she quickly rushed towards the frontcourt.

During the transition between offense and defense, Lufeng also quickly returned to the field and settled down.

Although Budo and Rukawa Kaede switched defenses on Shonhoku's side, Mike Okita still followed Jinguji Budo firmly on Lufeng's side.In Mike Okita's view, the opponent he has to face is Jinguji Budo. As for the others? !Not enough to make him pay attention.

Even Rukawa Kaede, who had an excellent defensive posture just now, was only "excellent".

"Do you still want to fight me?"

"If you are a good player, you should have seen it in the short game before."

"There is a huge gap in strength between you and me, not only technically, but also physically."

"Don't you, don't you recognize the gap?"

Seeing Mike Okita who was following him with a serious look on his face, Budao couldn't help asking.

"Um?!"

"In that case, how could it come out of your mouth? It shouldn't be!"

"Are you going to give up fighting just because your opponent is stronger than you?"

"If you don't try, how do you know where your limit is?"

Mike Okita raised his eyes to look at Budou. It just so happened that Jinguji Budou turned sideways at this time and asked for the ball from Mitsui Shou.

Starting with the basketball, Jinguji Budo changed his posture, turned his back to the basket from half sideways, looked at Mike Okita from the corner of his eye, and said:
"I'm actually different from you."

"I know my own strength, and I will not challenge players who are several levels higher than me."

"I am still playing in high school. On the one hand, I have some feelings for Xiangbei. On the other hand, I think it is too early to enter the higher-level competitions."

The words of martial arts made Mike Okita, who was still calm, couldn't help but frowned again, trying to suppress his anger, Mike Okita asked in a deep voice:
"So, how many levels do you think you are higher than me?!"

"I admit that you are better than me, but you really underestimate me!"

Mike stepped up to Tian, ​​put his body on Jinguji Budou's body, and raised his arms high.

"Isn't that obvious?!"

"You played well."

"But it's not enough to be my opponent!" While speaking, Jinguji Budao suddenly turned his back and accelerated his breakthrough directly. At the moment Mike Okita followed up, he stopped and pulled back, looking at the basket and worshiping Buddha.

The moment Mike Okita stopped and paused, Jinguji Budo directly accelerated his breakthrough, passed Mike Okita in an instant, and rushed towards the basket.

Naito Tetsu on the inside line also saw Budou Jinguji break through to the inside line, and immediately raised his position to supplement the defense. Behind Budou, Mike Okita quickly chased towards Budou Jinguji after readjusting his position. Ken dropped the defense.

"Snapped!"

Jumping with the ball near the basket, the moment he approached Tetsuya Naito, Budo Jinguji’s body turned around 360 degrees in mid-air, crossing Tetsuya Naito’s line of defense in an instant, and at the same time, Mike Okita behind him completely lost his pursuit However, Jinguji Budo, who faced the basket again, still maintained a good posture in the air. He shot the basketball and easily put it into the basket.

"Varied"

"What?!!!"

The players on the field were stunned, and the audience who had been shouting to cheer for the green wind on the sidelines seemed to be choked by someone and completely silenced.
