Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 378 Strong team, Luo'an!
In the match between Urayasu Commercial and Takamizawa, in the end, the stronger Urayasu Commercial won.

Although Sakuragi Hanamichi cheered hard for the hard-working Takamizawa High School, but the strength is weak, that is, the strength is weak. Even if Takamizawa's players try their best, it is still Urayasu Commercial that finally wins the game.

Jinguji Budao looked at the lost Sakuragi Hanadao, patted the latter on the shoulder, and said a few words of relief.And the cheerful Yingmu Huadao quickly came out of that lost mood.

After the match between Takamizawa and Urayasu Commercial, all the morning matches were declared over.Coach Anxi did not lead the players back to the hotel, but after having lunch at a nearby restaurant, he took the players back to the gymnasium, waiting to watch the afternoon game.

The afternoon game will not start until one o'clock in the afternoon. The Xiangbei players who have a lot of free time did not run around after returning to the rest area of ​​the arena. Most of them lay on the bench and closed their eyes to rest.

Sakuragi, Kiyota and the restless people used the name of going to the toilet to hang out in the gym boredly until the time approached 12.30, when the first game in the afternoon, Luoan High School and Qiuyue High School entered the field and began to warm up, Sakuragi Huadao and the others returned to the stands.

Half an hour before the start of the game, the players of the two participating teams entered the arena early and started warming up.

Perhaps because of the first match in the afternoon, most of the spectators hadn't fully recovered after watching the match in the morning, so the seats above the stands were vacant, not as full of spectators as they were in the morning.

Some of the spectators sitting in the stands were also Hache again and again, looking sleepy.

"Sakuragi, Kiyota, you guys are finally back."

"This game, you must not miss it!"

Holding a magazine in his hand, Mitsui Shou looked at the two teams warming up in the stadium, and said to Sakuragi and the others who had just returned to their seats.

Jinguji Budou, who was sitting behind Mitsui Shou, was also looking at the players in the stadium at this time, and his expression was obviously much more serious.

"Nani? Nani? Why can't you miss it? Is there a strong team in the afternoon game?"

Yingmu Huadao heard Mitsui Shou's words and asked again and again. His butt had just stuck to the bench, and he immediately threw himself behind Mitsui Shou, and stretched his neck to look at the magazine in Mitsui Shou's hand.

"Well! There is a strong team."

"See that team in the red jersey?"

"That's Luo'an High School in Kyoto, rated A, but Luo'an High School is not just an A-level team."

"If Sanno Industry used to be the well-deserved overlord of the national competition, then this Luo'an High School is the only opponent of the overlord back then!"

"Their opponents in this game are not easy to match. Akizuki High School in Tokyo is also grade A."

"Tokyo still has three teams participating in the national competition this year. In addition to Akizuki High School, there are Jinbodai Affiliated High School and Higashi Sakura High School. These three teams, this Akizuki High School, are the strongest."

Hisashi Mitsui seems to know a little about both Luoan High School and Akizuki High School, and he has a very high evaluation of both teams.

It is worth mentioning that Tokyo and Kyoto in Japan are two places, and the difference is equivalent to the difference between BJ and Nanjing, the capital and the old capital in China.

However, Jinguji Budao did not have a deep impression on the two schools of Luo'an and Qiuyue.

In last year's IH, his impression was that he did not see the matches of Luo An and Qiuyue High School.

Who was the opponent in the final of Lingnan last year?He kind of forgot.

Although Wu Dao didn't know the strength of the two teams very well, but at this time on the court, a certain Luoan player who was warming up made Wu Dao very interested.

"Little San, who is that No. 13 in Luo'an?"

Bu Dao's eyes fell on Luo An No. 13 in the court, and asked Mitsui Shou.

That is a tall and thin young man. Although Budao Jinguji is not sure about the opponent's height sitting on the stand, judging from Budou's experience, the opponent's height may have reached 210cm!

In the high school basketball arena, Budo has only seen players of this height at Sanno Industry.And unlike Mikio Kawada of Sanno, the No. 13 of Luoan High School is not fat.

Bu Dao watched the opponent's layup movement during warm-up, and felt the opponent's movement speed, which is probably quite good, and his skills are very agile.

"Number 13? Did you notice that?"

"Yes, no matter who is such a tall player, he will notice it."

"That is a second-year player from Luo'an, named Izumi Asino, 213cm tall, 91kg in weight, and a center forward."

"This kid scored 43 points alone in the Kyoto County Tournament. He is a very good player."

"Their opponents are not weak. The final score of the two teams was 96:87, with a difference of only nine points."

Wu Dao couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words. A center, in this kind of slow-paced high school competition, can score 40+ in a single game, which is already quite outstanding.

If Luo'an's opponents in the county competition still have excellent centers, then the data obtained by Luo'an No. 13 will be even more eye-catching.

If you abuse food, even if you get 50+ martial arts, it will not be unusual, but if there is a qualified opponent who still plays at such a level, then you have to make martial arts face up to the opponent's ability.

"213cm?!"

"so tall?!"

Mitsui Shou’s words immediately attracted the attention of Sakuragi and others who had just returned to the stands. Kiyota Nobunaga let out a low cry, and also stretched out his head to look at the magazine in Mitsui Shou’s hand. After confirming the information, he looked at the stadium. The outstanding No. 13 was found in the Luoan High School team.

"hiss!!!!"

Kiyota Nobunaga gasped, and Sakuragi beside him couldn't help shivering.

Then Kiyota Nobunaga pursed his mouth, and said in a sour tone: "It's just about being tall, and basketball doesn't just depend on height."

"Just like the red-haired monkey, there is no height. If I am as tall as him, I can do any slam dunk moves I want!"

As soon as Nobunaga Kiyota finished speaking, Sakuragi narrowed his eyes, looked at Kiyota sideways, and said contemptuously: "The height of basketball is very important."

"If they were all like wild monkeys, we wouldn't have traveled so far in Xiangbei!"

Sakuragi's words immediately ignited Kiyota Nobunaga's anger, but before Kiyota could get angry, Miyagi Ryota's shout rang out from Sakuragi's ear: "What did you say?! Sakuragi Flower Road!"

"Don't get too carried away!"

Sakuragi's words hit a wide range. At this time, not only Kiyota Nobunaga, but even Miyagi Ryota and Yasuda and others looked at Sakuragi with resentment.

"Ha ha."

"I didn't mention you, Liang Tian."

"I mean Wild Monkey's height is trash. Uh... I mean Wild Monkey is trash."

Sakuragi's rebuttal was really weak, Liangtian and Kiyota seemed to resent someone who raised their height with them, and they kept whispering in Sakuragi's ear.

Bu Dao glanced at the noisy teammates, tapped Mitsui's shoulder, and asked, "Xiao San, how many years has that kid been playing? Was it mentioned in the magazine?"

Hearing this, Mitsui looked carefully at the relevant information about Luo'an No. 13 in the magazine, and replied: "I have been playing since junior high school."

"The game will start soon, you can just watch his performance in the game."

Hearing this, Wu Dao also nodded, sat up straight, and focused his attention on the court.

While everyone in Xiangbei High School was studying the players in the stands, on the other side of the stands, everyone in Lingnan was also discussing this boy Quan Yaxi from Luoan.

Xiangbei High School is a team in Group A, and the opponent for the next game has been determined, which is Mingtom Industry.And Luoan High School is a team in Group B. After Luoan and Qiuyue High School play, if they win, they will enter the semifinals of Group B.

If Lingnan High School beats their opponent Jinshan Commercial, then Lingnan High School will compete with Luoan High School for the qualifying places in Group B.

In other words, compared to Xiangbei High School, Lingnan is the team that really needs to study this group of opponents.

"Tian Ye, tell me, who has a better chance of winning, Qiuyue or Luo An?"

In the stands, Akira Sendo reclined comfortably on his seat, looking down at the two warming-up teams on the field, and asked Shinomiya Tianno beside him.

"Sarah, who knows?"

"Whoever wins is mostly the same, it doesn't make much difference to me."

Shinomiya Tianye replied with a face full of indifference, it seemed that he had no interest in the possible opponents in the field.

"Really? That Roan's number 13 looks pretty good."

"It seems that only Shanwang has players of this height. And it's different from Shanwang's meatball man. Luo An seems to be very agile."

"Is there no threat to our Lingnan?"

Xiandao continued to ask with a smile, as if he was very interested in that Izumi Yaxi from Luoan.

"Just pull it out and hit it."

"His figure is the same as the meatball man of Shanwang, but he is actually not very coordinated."

"The fast speed you mentioned is only for the center forward."

"Such a center forward poses no threat to our Lingnan."

"Are you worried about meeting Luo'an? Don't worry, I will teach you how to deal with such an opponent."

Shinomiya Tianye yawned indifferently, and replied casually.Seeing his confident appearance, Xiandao also smiled, turned his eyes to the court and said nothing.

After half an hour of warm-up, the referee finally blew the whistle to start the game.

With the players from Loan High and Players taking their positions on the court, the referee threw the basketball high into the air after another long whistle.

The referee kicks off the ball and officially announces the start of the game.

Aso Izumi, who was standing on the side of the halfway line, looked up at the basketball, and with a light jump, he touched the falling basketball with his hand, and sent the ball towards his team's backcourt.

His opponent is Qiuyue's third-year center, who is 194cm tall, but a center of this height is simply not enough for Aso Izumi.

During the jump ball stage, he had just taken off, and the basketball was already flying towards the opponent's half court.

"Damn it, this guy is so tall!!!" Qiuyue's center forward saw that the jump ball failed, cursed in a low voice, and quickly ran towards his own half. He had never encountered a jump ball like this before. Pass!
Luo An High School, who got the jump ball, was not advancing fast. The defender who was in possession of the ball took the ball slowly across the half court, and then waited for his teammates to settle down. He put his hands together and looked at inside.

At this time, on the sideline of the paint area under the basket, Axio Izumi was leaning against the defensive player, raising his hands above his head, for position.

The basketball quickly flew out of the hands of the point guard in Luoan, and fell steadily into the hands of Izumi Yaxian.Izumi Ashio, who caught the ball high, didn't drop the ball, nor did he make any fancy pretense moves. He just leaned on his back, jumped lightly, grabbed the ball with his right hand, and shot directly with a small hook.

"?!"

At this moment, Qiuyue's center was pressing his arms firmly against Izumi Asino's back, concentrating on getting in position with the opponent. The next second, he heard the sound of a basketball hitting the backboard.He hurriedly turned his head to look, and saw that the basketball had rebounded into the net at this time.

"A goal?!" Qiuyue's center was completely unconscious at this moment, and he didn't realize that the opponent had shot until the basketball hit the net.

Looking back at Asino Izumi, he found that Asino Izumi had already started to run back slowly. It seemed that the goal just now was not scored by Asino Izumi.

As Luoan High School took the lead in scoring the ball, the score on the scoreboard also came to 2:0.
"It's so high! That shot just now looked so random!"

"That's right, the center forward in Luo'an is tall, but his touch is surprisingly soft."

"It feels very good. Unexpectedly, Luo'an has such a strong center. This time, Qiuyue High School will be difficult!"

The spectators above the stands saw Aso Izumi scoring easily, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.In the high school basketball arena, middle scorers of this height are too rare.

And although Yaxiu Quan has only played one ball at the moment, the audience watching the game can also tell that this kid is not the kind of stupid big guy with empty height.Everyone realized that Luo An's center might be a pretty scary player.

"It feels very good." In the stands, Budao was also slightly taken aback when he saw Asino Izumi's attack. He actually felt a strong sense of familiarity from the opponent's attack method.

It's like watching Yao Ming play!
Between offense and defense, Qiuyue High School has already launched an offense.

They also seemed to be aware of the threat of Izumi Aso, and deliberately avoided passing the ball inside when attacking.After the pick-and-roll cooperation of the outside players, the ball was finally given to the open small forward, who received the ball from a mid-range distance and directly shot the open shot.

The basketball hits steadily.

The successful counterattack made Qiuyue's players breathe a sigh of relief. There was no way, the pressure that Izumi Yaxio put on them was too great.

With the conversion of the offensive ball, Luoan launched an attack again.

Like the previous time, Luo An's advance speed was very slow. After all the players entered the frontcourt, Luo An's point guard sped up a little and quickly approached the three-point line.

"An offense around the center."

Wu Dao in the stands touched his chin when he saw Luo An's advancing speed, and murmured in his heart.

On the court, the basketball had already entered the hands of Izumi Asino. With his back to the basket to catch the ball, Izumi quickly turned around and wanted to shoot the ball. Qiuyue's center jumped directly to block.

And just at the moment when the opponent took off, Aso Izumi who lifted the ball quickly collected the ball, and then took the initiative to take off to meet the opponent's outstretched arms when the opponent fell, and the arms that raised the ball actively touched the opponent's hands. , before shooting.

In the next second, the basketball hit the backboard directly and rebounded into the net.

And just the second after Aso Izumi made an offensive score, the referee's whistle sounded at the right time.

2+1!

The referee actually added a free throw to Asino Izumi!
