Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 360 The First Grade Who Brings Change!

"Got to execute the coach's defensive plan."

"We have to increase the strength of Jinguji Martial Arts, otherwise, he will blow it up by himself."

"As for this first grade, it's still too tender."

During Sanno Industry's offensive stage, Fukatsu Kazunari, who was holding the ball, was not moving fast. While pushing the ball toward the frontcourt, he was thinking about how to deal with Shohoku High School.

Xiangbei's first attack was indeed a bet on Jinguji Budao, which was actually within the expected range of their Shanwang.

Rukawa Kaede's personal breakthrough just now is very threatening, but for Fukatsu, Rukawa Kaede's threat is far less than that of Jinguji Budo.He thought he had seen the plan of Xiangbei High School clearly, and in the next defense, he would execute according to the established tactics of Coach Domoto.

On the offensive end, their Mountain King already has a direction!
With the ball approaching the three-point line, Kaede Rukawa on the defensive side defended it early. Although Kazunari Fukatsu missed the three-pointer before, since the opponent will choose to shoot a three-pointer, he must have the ability to shoot a three-pointer. of.

In Rukawa Feng's view, not entering the vacant seat is a small probability event.

For this reason, when Fukatsu Kazunari approached the three-point line, Rukawa Kaede, who was originally standing at the top of the arc, quickly posted it.

There is quite a tacit understanding between Sanno's players. In order to prevent being picked and rolled by the opponent and to allow Fukatsu to have a shooting gap, Rukawa Kaede is very tight when defending. Even if Yamago's pick and roll player comes up, Rukawa Kaede can slip through the gap. , continue to pursue.

"The defense is stronger."

Rukawa Kaede's close defense makes Fukatsu Kazunari's dribbling space smaller. Compared with Shohoku High School Miyagi Ryota's defense, Rukawa Kaede's defense is more threatening and effective.

Fukatsu Kazunari simply turned sideways, leaning against Rukawa Kaede's body to maintain his dribbling space, and at the same time looked at Zebei Eiji who was running to the baseline at this time.

Zebei Eiji, who saw the signal from his teammates, quickly turned back while running without the ball, pulled away from Budo by half a body, and quickly approached Fukatsu.

And Rukawa Feng also saw the existence of Zebei Eiji from the corner of his eyes, and hurriedly pressed the mountain with his body, he didn't want to give the opponent a gap in the pick-and-roll.

However, Zebei Eiji didn't come here to pick and roll Fukatsu Kazun at all. Zebei bypassed Rukawa Kaede and quickly approached Fukatsu from the outside. At the same time, Kazunari Fukatsu, who had completed the ball, got stuck in Jinguji Budo, leaving Zebei still with a gap after receiving the ball.

Eiji Zebei, who got the basketball hand in hand, took advantage of the momentum and accelerated the drop.

Jinguji Budao was delayed by Fukatsu Issei, and immediately reminded Rukawa Feng: "Rukawa, change defense!"

As soon as Budo's words fell, Zebei Eiji, who was accelerating with the ball, had already separated from Rukawa Kaede. When Rukawa Kaede started to pursue, Zebei Eiji suddenly stopped, and Rukawa Kaede didn't dare to see it. Slack, he hurriedly stopped, and stretched out his hand to cover Eiji Zebei.

But when Rukawa stood upright, Zebei Eiji accelerated again, passed Rukawa in an instant, took two steps, and went straight to the free throw line.

Quick stop, jump shot.

Zebei Eiji's offensive skills are also quite comprehensive. After successfully passing Rukawa Kaede, he immediately shot the ball, and did not give the insiders Akagi Takenori and Sakuragi Hanamichi a chance to defend.

The beautiful cooperation, combined with Zebei Eiji's excellent personal skills, allowed Sanno Industry to even out the difference between the two teams.

"Yo Xi~~"

After scoring the goal, Zebei clenched his right hand and let out a low cry of excitement.When returning to defense, he directly ignored Rukawa Feng, looked at Jinguji Budao, raised his chin slightly, and looked provocative.

"Feel sorry."

Rukawa Feng murmured, and quickly came to the inside line, ready to receive the serve.

After Akagi Takenori sent the ball from the baseline, he patted Rukawa Kaede on the back and quickly ran towards the frontcourt.

In fact, Jinguji Budo didn't hear Rukawa Kaede's apology at all. It's normal to be unstoppable when playing a game. The game has just started, and one goal or two goals is not critical.

What he didn't know was that at this time, Rukawa Feng felt guilty that Jinguji Budo was provoked by Zebei Eiji.

If he hadn't guarded against it, the other party would never have had that chance to provoke Jinguji Budao.

Rukawa Kaede, who received the ball in the backcourt, looked at the Shanwang people who had returned to defense, adjusted his mentality, and quickly moved forward with the ball.

The members of Shonhoku High School seem to trust Rukawa Kaede who holds the ball quite a lot. When Rukawa Kaede advanced, all the Shonhoku players did not go to support him.

When Rukawa Feng took the ball into the frontcourt, Budao and the others had arrived three or four seconds ago.

With the arrival of Kaede Rukawa, Mitsui, who was in the bottom corner, made a move, and quickly penetrated into the inside line from the bottom corner, involving Matsumoto Minoru's defense line, from one end of the court to the other end of the court.

And when Mitsui Shou was running, Matsumoto Minoru, who was following behind him, also opened up a position with Mitsui Shou because of the delay in the inside line Akagi's position.

"Snapped!"

Rukawa Feng sensed the opportunity from Mitsui Hisashi, turned his head to look at Jinguji Budo on the right side, and the basketball in his hand slammed into Fukatsu Kazunari's feet, and hit the ground to the left. go.

When Kaede Rukawa looked at Budo Jinguji, Fukatsu Kazunari thought that the opponent was going to pass the ball to Budo Jinguji, so he made some adjustments in his body position, allowing Kaede Rukawa to play the ball smoothly.

"It's a bit lower."

As the basketball flew in, Mitsui Shouichi slowed down, bent down, and caught the ball in his hands. The moment he slowed down, Matsumoto Minoru behind him had already chased him in place, making Mitsui Shouichi lose the chance to catch and shoot.

With a low murmur, Mitsui Shou reached the left corner, dribbled the ball under his crotch, turned to face the basket at the same time, and looked up at the basket.

Minoru Matsumoto, who was chasing him, did not dare to relax, and immediately raised his hands to cover Mitsui's sight.

Before the game, their Sanwang did a lot of work, and they also knew Mitsui Shou very well. Mitsui Shou's three-pointer was a point that their Sanwang focused on guarding against.

However, at the moment when Matsumoto raised his center of gravity, Mitsui, who was dribbling the ball, was in disguise in such a small area at the bottom corner. The basketball hit the floor under Matsumoto's crotch, and Mitsui ran out of the baseline, and then He returned to the field, and then took the ball in his hands, and actually completed the ball pass.

"!!!"

Minoru Matsumoto still couldn't react until Mitsui Shou made the breakthrough. He turned his head belatedly and saw Mitsui Shou throwing at a zero-degree angle.

"Hey! Do you dare to make moves, Xiaosan!"

Seeing this scene, Jinguji Budao from the outside line also brightened his eyes and praised with a smile.

Since he entered Xiangbei High School, Mitsui Shou has rarely shown his strong singles ability. Even if he breaks through, he simply accelerates, or breaks through under the pick-and-roll of his teammates.

The wind is very stable.

The work of attacking fortifications and strong singles is usually done by martial arts.Unexpectedly, in the face of Sanno Industry, Mitsui Hisashi was no longer a pure three-point shooter, but took out all his weapons.

"Shh!"

A mid-range shot at a zero-degree angle, and with a soft sound, the basketball hit the net.

"Ohhhh, what's that? Is that person not out of bounds?"

"Score? Does this ball count as a score?"

"Idiot, that's a man's ball. When he got the ball again, both feet were in bounds. If it's not out of bounds, it's a strike!"

"Aww!! Mitsui! Mitsui!"

Mitsui Shou's goal made the stands instantly lively. Some spectators didn't understand Mitsui Shou's operation, and some of them helped explain it.

Tokuo and others in the stands were much simpler. Seeing Mitsui score, they waved the banner of "Flame Man" and screamed loudly.

"Good job, little San!" When returning to defense, Bu Dao walked up to Mitsui Shou with a smile on his face, and boxed with Mitsui to celebrate.

"Of course it is!"

"I'm Mitsui Shou!"

Mitsui Shou took it for granted, and that look was far more arrogant than Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede.

"Hahaha! Then you play more and get more points."

Budo smiled and patted Mitsui Shou's arm, as if he saw Mitsui Shou in middle school.

In fact, after Budo grew up and joined Shonhoku, Mitsui Shoutou surrendered the ball in a sense, handed over the role of the main attacker, and switched from the ball-holding role to the off-ball role.

But Mitsui Shou personally is not a pure shooter at all. His breakthrough ability is also very strong, but he does not take the initiative to play with the ball for the sake of the integrity and balance of the team.

If Mitsui Hisashi refuses to give up, even if Budo's individual singles ability is stronger and more stable than him, his possession of the ball will not be less, at least 40% should be taken from Budo's hands.

It was only when Mitsui Hisashi gave way that the previous offensive method of Xiangbei High School was created.But for any offense, basketball has to go around from Budao's hands. If Budao doesn't play, it will be someone else's turn.

Under this style of play, Xiangbei's strength is still very strong, but the offense has also become traceable, and the sense of participation of other players is very low.

But in today's game, Xiangbei High School has begun to change!

This transformation was brought about by Mitsui Shou, and at the same time, it was also brought about by Rukawa Kaede.

Unlike Miyagi Ryota, who is willing to be a hero behind the scenes, Rukawa Kaede is really sharp. Even if he is playing point guard, he has to play his own style. He is absolutely unwilling to simply bring the ball into the frontcourt, and then put The ball was sent into Budo's hands.

Rukawa Kaede on the court is a selfish person, but also an ambitious person.

And Kaede Rukawa, who plays point guard, also brought a chemical reaction to Xiangbei High School.

Budo Jinguji is very happy to see the transformation of his teammates.

Mitsui Shou is already in the third grade, if he doesn't get some limelight, it will be too late.

Rukawa Feng and the others are only in the first grade, and martial arts is a class higher than them. One day, Xiangbei will rely on them, the first graders, and if they don't seek changes, how can they support Xiangbei High School? !

Between offense and defense, Sanno Industry has also approached the Xiangbei half.

Although Mitsui Shou's goal just now surprised them, Sanno's players will not look at Mitsui Shou differently just because of one goal and two goals.

Who doesn't eat dumplings during Chinese New Year?

The Shanwang people who entered the Xiangbei half calmly conducted and moved, without being affected in the slightest.

After several passes, the basketball was delivered to Masashi Kawada inside. With his back to the basket, Masashi Kawada was still about two meters away from the basket. Under the defense of Akagi, he actually made a jumper after blowing up the ball consecutively. .

The smooth movement easily opened up Akagi and scored a shot.

He is obviously a big center, but Masashi Kawada has flexible feet and accurate mid-range shots.

His set of moves is proficient and smooth. Not to mention, at least in Kanagawa County, no center forward can achieve this set of moves with his quality.

Whether it's Yuzumi, Akagi, or even the precise flower shape of the mid-range shot, his footsteps are actually not as flexible as Kawada Masashi.

If you really want to compare Kawada Masashi's footwork flexibility with others, on the contrary, as an outside player, Jinguji Budao and others can be used for comparison.

But the agility of a center's footsteps can be compared to that of the outside line. It can be seen how terrifying Kawada Masashi is at the basket.

"Don't worry about it, Akagi, take better precautions next time, stick it a little tighter."

Seeing Kawada Masashi scoring the ball in front of him, Akagi Takenori looked somewhat unhappy.

Mitsui Shou smiled and gave a word of relief, then turned around, his expression became a little dignified.

The question is, does it still appear on the inside line?
"Sakuragi, pay attention to the defense."

Budou raised his mouth towards Yingmu Huadao, without saying anything to Akagi, turned around and ran towards the front field.

His mentality is much better than that of Mitsui Shou. Although he also knows that Xiangbei's inside line may become the biggest variable in this game, Budou has confidence in his offensive power. As long as the rebound does not collapse, his inside line will be beaten by the opponent. It doesn't matter.

Between offense and defense, the players from Xiangbei High School once again entered the Sanwang half.

After Rukawa Feng approached the top of the arc, he turned his gaze to Jinguji Budao.And his little action immediately aroused the vigilance of Fukatsu and Zebei, and even Masashi Kawada pulled out a little bit at the moment, and gave Akagi the best position to snatch rebounds under the basket, and the two were not far apart. to half a meter.

Hisashi Mitsui repeated his old trick, running along the baseline and across the basket.

But this time Minoru Matsumoto kept an eye out and deliberately bypassed the basket when running. Although he was not close to defending Mitsui, he faintly blocked the passing route between Rukawa Kaede and Mitsui when running.

Bu Dao saw that Shan Wang had a tighter view of him, so he backed away slowly, leaving near the three-point line, intending to catch the ball.But at this time, Rukawa Kaede, who had been dribbling half sideways on the spot, changed his rhythm. After changing hands under the crotch, he immediately changed directions in front of his body with high frequency and low center of gravity.

"Do you want to come by yourself?"

"No, it should be to use a breakthrough to find a pass gap!"

Kazunari Fukatsu's gaze was still on Kaede Rukawa's feet, but after he figured out the joints here, he shifted his gaze to the basketball in Kaede Rukawa's hands.

Anti-breakthrough depends on footsteps, anti-pass depends on the ball.

Fukatsu Kazunari's defensive experience is very sophisticated.

However, at this moment, Rukawa Kaede, who continued to disguise himself, accelerated his charge, and his footsteps had just stepped into the three-point line, followed by a combination ball.

Fukatsu Kazunari was at a loss for the sudden jump shot, but raised his head in astonishment, and looked at Rukawa Kaede's handsome face.

"Voted?!"

"No pass!"

"There is still so much offensive time, a point guard doesn't even pass a pass and shoots himself?!"

"When the trump card for the ball doesn't exist?!"

Astonishment, nothing but astonishment.

Kazunari Fukatsu couldn't figure out how Kaede Rukawa, the point guard, played like this.Wouldn't such a player really be put on the bench by the coach? !
"Shh!!!"

Behind Kazunari Fukatsu, there was the sound of a basketball hitting the net.

Hearing this sound, Fukatsu turned his head in astonishment, and happened to see the basketball fall from the net and hit the floor.

"This"
