Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 350 Terrifying firepower, the player's target!

The 360° turn around and layup in mid-air, this exaggerated skill of Budo Jinguji was seen for the first time by both the audience and the players present.

Even the well-informed coach Anxi opened his mouth slightly, and his eyes were full of shock.

In the stadium, Mike Okita, who watched Budo Jinguji complete this series of operations in front of his eyes, shook his head slightly after a brief shock.

He, Mike Okita, can completely replicate this kind of skill. I believe that as long as he practices it in private, he will be able to complete it.His own jumping, staying in the air, and waist and abdomen strength are not bad. This kind of difficult skill is not something unattainable for him.

But Mike Okita is very clear that even if he has mastered such a skill, he will never use it on the court. The reason is very simple, because he is not completely sure that he can perfectly avoid the opponent's attack under the opponent's defense. Defend and score the ball.

Jinguji Budo can hit such a ball, on the one hand, it shows that the opponent's game skills are indeed much higher than ordinary people, and at the same time, it also shows that Jinguji Budo is indeed full of confidence in himself.

This kind of inner strength of infinite trust in one's own ability is what the team's trump card should really pursue.

Being able to achieve this inner state also means that Jinguji Budao has never encountered the so-called "peak" on the road of growth.

All peaks can be climbed in front of Jinguji Budao, and only in this way can Jinguji Budao be so confident in his ability.

"This guy is really not the same person as me."

"A more American style of play than me, can such a person really be cultivated in the current basketball environment in Kanagawa Prefecture?!"

A deep doubt arose in Mike Okita's heart. The confidence and strength of Jinguji Budo made him see the shadows of those proud sons of the United States.

Between offense and defense, Lufeng High School once again began to reorganize the offense.

Xiangbei High School implemented the arrangement of coach Anxi during the timeout, and did not use the full-court defensive method to oppress Lufeng's back line, causing the opponent to make mistakes.

When returning to the field to defend, all Xiangbei players settled in their own half, adopting the simplest man-to-man style of play, completely releasing some restrictions on Lufeng, hoping that Lufeng can play his true style.

During the timeout before, the tactics arranged by the big ship coach were actually very simple.

If Shohoku still plays the full-court press, let the Tsurumi brothers pass the ball to Mike Okita, and Mike Okita will take on the responsibility of advancing with the ball, thus breaking the Shohoku High School's full-court press.

Jinguji Budo's personal strength is indeed very strong. If someone cooperates with him in double-teaming, even Mike Okita may not be able to bring the ball across the half court smoothly, but for Green Wind High School, Mike Okita There is no way for the rest of the players to go up to pick and roll to cover after dribbling the ball across the half court.

After all, there is a huge gap in hard power between the two teams. This method may still be effective and successfully break through Xiangbei's full-court press. The rest of the methods have no possibility of success at all.

The team of Lufeng has been established for too short a time. There is not enough running-in between the players. It is already very good to be able to play a simple pick-and-roll. Coach Dachuan does not expect anything between the players Exquisite fit.

Therefore, on the offensive end, coach Dafu also gave Mike Okita, the "returnee" full choice.

In a word, if you give the ball to you, you will win with the green wind!

The Lufeng players who entered the front field quickly settled down, the standard outside three inside two positions, Tsurumi Seiji who dribbled the ball across the center line, passed the ball early to Mike Okita who was in the horn position.

Rukawa Kaede was still defending Mike Okita, a simple sweep of the ball and a breakthrough feint.

After the practice feint, Rukawa Kaede did not completely lose his position, but it also allowed Mike Okita to find a breakthrough gap. After a progress, Mike Okita made a high-post emergency stop jumper.

The proficient and smooth breakthrough shooting action made the Lufeng students who watched the game cheer.

"Shh!"

At the same time, the basketball also entered the net.

There is not much height difference between Rukawa Kaede and Mike Okita, even a few centimeters shorter than Mike Okita.And Mike Okita's bounce is not weaker than Rukawa Kaede's. Facing Mike Okita's emergency stop jumper, even if Rukawa Kaede is only half a body behind, there is still no way to successfully stop the opponent.

It's just that, for the same goal, Mike Okita could score on Kaede Rukawa's face, but if the defensive player is Budo Jinguji, he might have to block this goal.

Against a player of Rukawa Kaede's height and bounce, Mike Okita only needs to be halfway apart to have enough shooting space.

But to match up with a player of Jinguji Budou's height and bounce, even if Mike Okita opened up two positions, it would probably be just enough for him to make a shot.

And the person who can rely on feints and dribbles to separate the two positions under the defense of Jinguji Budo
"Sure enough, it's much easier to deal with than Jinguji Budo."

The basketball hit the net, and the smile on Mike Okita's face flashed away. He didn't feel happy when he scored in front of Rukawa Kaede.

In Mike Okita's view, this is, it should be!

It's just that Mike Okita's understatement of the score made Rukawa Feng couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

It can only be said that he is worthy of being a four-star high school student in the United States.Mike Okita's "weakness" is only because he is in front of Jinguji Budo!
"The outside basket technology is very comprehensive."

"Rukawa Feng's physical fitness is similar to that of the opponent. Unless he predicts the opponent's movements accurately, otherwise, he cannot be guarded."

"Indeed, Mike Okita is a good opponent for Rukawa Kaede!"

Jinguji Budo watched Mike Okita and Rukawa Kaede's round of offense and defense, and immediately judged their strength.

Compared with Mike Okita's "offensive", Rukawa Kaede's defensive ability is worse.

After losing the point, Xiangbei immediately organized an attack. Mike Okita's attention was still on Budo Jinguji. After Mitsui dribbled the ball into the frontcourt, he turned his head and looked at Budo Jinguji.

Seeing that Mike was still defending himself, Budo still couldn't help reaching out to Mitsui for the ball.

The opponent's desire to fight is very strong, and Wu Dao doesn't mind satisfying the opponent's mentality of seeking abuse.

Without any fancy moves, Bu Dao took the ball directly, swayed his right foot a little, and directly retracted his foot.

The clean and tidy dry drawing made the substitute players in Xiangbei look sideways.

"Shh!"

The basketball directly hit the net, making the Lufeng students who were still cheering for the Lufeng basketball team quiet, but after a few seconds, the cheering of the Lufeng students became louder.We are already behind on the court, if we don't encourage the players at this time, how can the players on the court get the motivation to play? !

"This guy, his shot speed is so fast!"

"And, it's so high."

Mike Okita, who was running towards the frontcourt, was thinking about the attack of Jinguji Budou just now, and he made a clean move. Although technically, it was far less impressive than the opponent's previous "360° turn and layup", but this This "ordinary" attack is the truly terrifying thing.

Take the ball and pull up three-pointers. There is no doubt that this is the superstar weapon of the scorer, except for the orangutan.

Between offense and defense, using a pick-and-roll from his teammates, Mike Okita quickly rushed towards the basket after receiving a pass from his teammates.After attracting Hanamichi Sakuragi's defense, Mike Okita combined the ball, passed the ball falsely, and threw the ball into the basket with one hand.

His technique is very good, and Yingmu Huadao was completely deceived by the opponent.

In the subsequent games, Xiangbei High School and Lufeng High School finally felt evenly matched.

After Jinguji Budo stopped defending Mike Okita, Mike Okita justified his status as a "four-star high school student" on the offensive end.Whether it is singles with the ball, or the handling of basketball when facing supplementary defense and double-teaming, they are quite mature and excellent.

Rukawa Kaede's defense was useless in front of him, and Xiangbei's defense line was once broken by Mike Okita alone.

When Mike Okita performed brilliantly, Tetsu Naito of Lufeng High School also attracted the attention of many people. This wide and fat high school student is quite dominant inside. Although his skills at the basket are rough, he His weight and strength are his greatest weapons, and he frequently relies on his strength to score under the basket.

Compared with him, the performances of Sakuragi Hanamichi and Nango were a bit weaker. At 11 minutes into the game, Sakuragi Hanamichi was also preparing to change his defensive thinking in the face of the "invincible" Naito Tetsu.

At the beginning, he was still very unconvinced and wanted to wrestle with the opponent, and it was not a wrestling fight. However, if Yingmu Huadao wanted to withstand the opponent's blocking position, he needed to sacrifice some bounce and use a lower center of gravity in exchange for a more stable descent. plate.

But after losing several backcourt rebounds, Sakuragi Hanamichi realized that such a defensive method would not work.He realized that he couldn't compete with the opponent on the strength of the opponent, and had to pull the opponent to the same track as himself.

Having figured this out, Hanamichi Sakuragi is no longer obsessed with snatching the favorable position under the basket. Sometimes, he even deliberately gave up the good position to Tetsuya Naito in exchange for some run-up space.

Sakuragi Hanamichi intends to use his bounce to compete with the opponent on the rebound.

With a change in strategy, Sakuragi quickly tasted the sweetness.

After Mike Okita made an emergency stop and missed a shot, Sakuragi Hanamichi rushed to grab the rebound, completed the top pick of flowers on Naito Tetsuya's head, and easily took the ball into his arms.

Then the ball was passed, and Budo Jinguji counterattacked and scored.After helping the team score in a counterattack, Sakuragi was out of control. During the rest of the first half, Hanamichi Sakuragi roared excitedly from time to time.

As the game progressed, Rukawa Kaede gradually adapted to Mike Okita's breakthrough. Although there was still no way to block the opponent's attack, Rukawa Kaede was able to affect the opponent's concentration when Mike Okita shot.

This kind of defense also caused Mike Okita's offensive efficiency to drop significantly. Mike Okita, who realized this problem, reduced his mid-range shots and increased his breakthrough points.In this way, let Green Wind maintain a certain degree of offensive efficiency.

However, the offense of Xiangbei High School has always been dominated by Jinguji Budo.

Unlike Rukawa Kaede's defense against Mike Okita, Mike Okita's defense against Jinguji Budo is really not much different from no defense.

On the offensive end, Jinguji Budao rushes whenever he wants, and shoots whenever he wants. While pulling on the defensive strength of Lufeng's outside line, he is often able to draw the supplementary defense of Lufeng's inside players.

However, whether to make up defense or not, it will not affect Jinguji Budo's score.

At 18 minutes into the first half, Budo Jinguji's personal score had reached a terrifying 32 points.

To him, Lufeng was like the meat on his dinner plate. If he wanted to eat it, he would cut it twice.

Jinguji Budou, who scored crazy points, gave up his attack at the end of the first half. He had already tried the depth of the green wind in 18 minutes, and it was boring.

In the following time, Budo was more about passing the ball for Rukawa Kaede and Mitsui Shou, but instead played the role of a point guard.

In the second half of the game, Jinguji Budo was replaced by coach Anzai, and it was Miyagi Ryota who replaced Budo.

Compared with the boring first half, the match between Xiangbei High School and Lufeng High School in the second half was much more intense.

The focus of attention has shifted from Rukawa Kaede vs. Mike Okita to Mitsui Shou vs. Mike Okita.

Rukawa Kaede and Mike Okita can be regarded as a mutual explosion, but Mitsui's battle against Mike Okita cannot be simply described as a "mutual explosion".

Because Mike Okita's scoring efficiency is far less than Mitsui Hisaka!
Mitsui Shou has already mastered the skill of the flip shot, and in today's game, his hand feeling is also very good, no matter how he throws, he once shut down Lufeng High School.

Coach Dachuan called a timeout and helped the players adjust their emotions before allowing Lufeng to recover.

However, during Mitsui Hisashi's stormy attack, the Green Wind team members also completely lost their expectations for victory.

At the end of the practice match, Xiangbei High School won by 112 points 78:34.

With a score of more than [-], the coach of Dachuan and the players of Lufeng High School have a new understanding of the strength of Xiangbei High School's team.

In high school, scores in the 80s and 90s are very common. Between strong teams and strong teams, if the offensive end explodes, [-]+, [-]+ is already a terrifying offensive efficiency.

Before Xiangbei High School, few teams could score more than [-] points.

Coach Dachuan, who has coached high school basketball for many years, knows this very well.

Xiangbei High School's terrifying firepower on the offensive end can be seen just from their scoring.

"Beep-"

With the referee's long whistle, the match between Xiangbei High School and Lufeng High School came to an end.The players of the two teams shook hands with each other. Although they lost the game, Mike Okita didn't have much disappointment on his face. He didn't know how much he had gone through in failure.

After shaking hands with Mitsui Shou and Rukawa Kaede one by one, Mike Okita suddenly said to them:

"Mitsui Hisashi and Rukawa Kaede, with the strength of the two of you, it is really too much for you to continue playing here."

"I think you should pursue a higher level of basketball instead of being bad here!"

Mike Okita admired the strength of these two opponents and tried to persuade them.

Mitsui Shou and Rukawa Kaede looked at each other, and finally Mitsui Shou nodded, turned his head and glanced at Jinguji Budou who had already changed his clothes and sat on the bench, and said:

"Yes, after winning the national championship with him!"

"And this kid will do it too!"

"After being 'Neon First'!"
