The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master.

Chapter 106 The Mountain King’s Intention

A small climax of 4:0, two goals in succession, made many Sanno audience shut up.

It turns out that Xiangyang really doesn’t only have No. 13...

"Fujima, the captain of Xiangyang, has entered the national competition with Xiangyang in the past two years. He is also the only player in the Kanagawa Division who can compete with Maki Shinichi. It seems that Sanno Industries is in trouble this time... "

The commentary continued, the audience hummed and murmured, and the Xiangyang bench cheered collectively.

Hanagata Toru roared, his eyes flashing.

Coach Anxi's previous relief was something he had some idea of ​​in his own mind. Although he had suppressed his fear of the Mountain King, there were still some concerns hidden deep in his heart, but now...

The Mountain King is very strong, but so what?
We have the invincible Lin Dong, Fujima who is in full swing, and... Japan's number one offensive center!
This year, we will definitely be the champions!
But this time, Sanno Industrial did not choose a fast break that immediately served from the baseline.

The gap was only 3 points, but Shoyo's combos and Fujima's sudden performance seemed to slightly disrupt Sanno Industries' original rhythm.

In the VIP seats in the stands, Ozaki Masatoshi couldn't help but frown slightly.

What is the mountain king doing?
It's just that he wasn't allowed to see the scene of checking and balancing Lin Dong, but he couldn't even restrain the other two people in Xiangyang?The opponent actually gained momentum from the very beginning...

"Is this the result of your special training with the Mountain King?" He looked at Takehiko Orimagi next to him, with a hint of teasing and blame in his tone.

Orimo Takehiko laughed and asked: "When do you think the best opportunity to destroy a person's fighting spirit is?"

Ozaki Masatoshi was startled for a moment, then suddenly realized, smiled and nodded: "Of course that was when they were just confident."

"That's it!"

Goro Domoto stood up on the sidelines, smiled and made a gesture of crossing his index fingers at Fukatsu Kazunari.

Fukatsu Kazunari understood.

Xiangyang is different from other high school teams. To defeat them, it is far from enough to rely solely on personal ability and fierce attacks.

The relaxation and casualness just now was just a small trial. The real battle has just begun now.

"Hi! Guys!" He smiled and said to his teammates: "It's time to start."

Sanno Industries' ball rights.

The first change occurred on the offensive end.

Although it is also done by avoiding Lin Dong's "strong side position" after pulling, and then looking for misplaced opportunities on the other side to take action.

However, it strengthened its impact and threat to the basket, and also slowed down the overall rhythm. It seemed that it was planning to play a positional battle with Xiangyang.

Kawada Masashi and Ichinokura Satoshi were directly stationed in the inside. Following a pick-and-roll mismatch between Fukatsu Kazunari and Matsumoto Minoru, Fukatsu Kazunari singled out Takano Shoichi and shot a mid-range shot, but Fujima had already seen his thoughts. The defense came up.

The physical confrontation made Kazunari Fukatsu's shot a hit, but Masashi Kawada had control of the rebound.

The tip-in was successful, and the point difference narrowed again, reaching 10:11.

But the bigger change is on the defensive end.

Fujima held the ball just past the center line. Before he could get close to the three-point line, Ichinokura Satoshi came up closely.

Changed defense...

Eiji Sawabita clings to Lin Dong, Masashi Kawada focuses on Toru Hanagata, Kazunari Fukatsu focuses on Hasegawa, and Minoru Matsumoto, who is taller, focuses on Shoichi Takano.

Half-time man-to-man!
The most active one is Eiji Zebita, who almost hangs on Lin Dong's close defense without the ball, as if he doesn't skimp on physical strength.

As for Ichinokura Satoshi in front of me, his height of 171 centimeters is a full 7 centimeters shorter than Fujima, but he does not appear to be one size smaller.

This guy is very strong, and probably because of his height, his fast footsteps and strong defensive skills make Fujima feel that he is even better than Kazunari Fukatsu.

He changed direction twice to break through the opponent's defense, but Satoshi Ichinokura calmly followed him both times.

Moreover, his body is extremely confrontational, and his seemingly short body contains unimaginable power. Fujima held the ball for three or four seconds and was unable to even get close to the three-point line.

Can't get rid of it?

If faced with Fukatsu Kazunari's defense and unable to get rid of him, Fujima might not feel too much, but facing this second-year rookie who is a full 7 centimeters shorter than himself...

From the video of Sanno's game last year, this is still a first-year player who can only sit on the bench.

The arrogance he showed just now made Tengzhen choose to attack forcefully.

Since changing direction doesn't work, then use speed!

But next second...

Snapped!
A crisp sound.

Too obsessed with breakthroughs and pursuing speed, there was a flaw in the left hand that controlled the ball, and the basketball was slapped by Ichinokura Satoshi and flew out.

With Ichinokura Satoshi's wingspan, it was the limit to be able to do this step. The offset of his body's center of gravity made it impossible for him to catch up with the ball that was shot away, but Fukatsu Kazunari, who was facing Hasegawa next to him, was already ahead of schedule. Ran out.During a fast break with the ball near the center line, all members of Xiangyang were in the offensive half and had no time to pursue the defense. Kazunari Fukatsu made a pass.

At 13:12, Shanwang overtook the lead.

this kid...

Fujima was not surprised by Fukatsu Kazunari's reaction, but was a little surprised when he looked at the little man in front of him who was only 171 centimeters tall.

With his stocky body and strong core strength, he underestimated the other party.

Xiangyang's possession of the ball.

Facing Satoshi Ichinokura, who was once again on the defensive, Fujima did not choose to tangle with him again.

The height of 171 centimeters gives the opponent a certain advantage in speed. This is a type whose speed and reaction are not inferior to those of Shohoku Miyagi Ryota, but in terms of strength, he is far superior. He is a short, weak, cannon type.

The ball quickly reached Lin Dong's hands.

Lin Dong rushed forward with the ball, changed direction step by step, and passed Eiji Zebita who was going all out.

The flower-shaped Toru under the basket slightly opened a little distance to the left in order to receive the ball after Lin Dong broke through.

Unexpectedly, Masashi Kawada followed him closely and actually let Lin Dong have an empty blue.

Swish!
With such an almost empty blue opportunity, if you don't vote, there will be a problem.

Lin Dong ignored Eiji Zebei's pursuit behind him and made an empty blue.

At 13:14, Xiangyang took the lead.

After changing the ball, Sanno's Kawada Masashi made a single pass under the basket and hit one with a steady back.

15: 14.

Looking back, Xiangyang still opened up the space in all directions, trying to use Lin Dong's breakthrough to shrink Sanno's inside line, so as to create outside opportunities for his teammates.

But... the mountain king just let him go.

Eiji Sawabita switched to the anti-Kanako Toru, and Masashi Kawada got into a one-on-one position with Lin Dong.

Facing Lin Dong's breakthrough, Kawada Masashi could not keep up. He could only use his body to squeeze and block his position to create confrontation and trouble for Lin Dong.

As for the other four positions, they followed Xiangyang's movement and moved outside the three-point line. Let Masashi Kawada be beaten to death, and Lin Dong made a difficult lever to take the lead again.

15: 16.

The Sanwang's offense was still unstoppable. After avoiding Lin Dong's strong side attack, he focused on attacking the basket.

Facing Kawada Masashi's strong attack, Hanagata Toru's shot-blocking thug got a 2+1.

The score came to 18:16.

But when he turned around, Satoshi Ichinokura continued to pester Ayahuasca, and when the ball was passed to Lin Dong, Sanno's formation opened up again.

Masashi Kawada was guarding Tohru Hanagata, Eiji Sawabita switched to Hasegawa, and this time it was Kazunari Fukatsu who faced off against Lin Dong...

Xiangyang's players were all running hard and didn't seem to feel the crisis was coming.

Mitsuyoshi Anzai frowned on the sidelines.

Lin Dong narrowed his eyes slightly.

He understood the mountain king's intention.

Target the other four people in Xiangyang and let Lin Dong fight alone.

Sanno seems to know very well that no one in his team can guard Lin Dong, and if he chooses to play two-on-one, firstly, the effect may not be real, and secondly, it will open up opportunities for others in Xiangyang.

The Mountain King's intention is clear to consume him, and it is to consume him in a wheel battle!
Sawehita will defend two, and then Kawada will defend two, and then switch to Kazunari Fukatsu or Minoru Matsumoto.

Moreover, the intentions of these four people are quite clear, which is to prevent shots but not breakthroughs. Even if they know that they will be passed by in one step, they will never let go beyond the defensive position.

And even if he is passed, he will try his best to use his body's position and the desperate pursuit from behind to maximize his physical strength. At the same time, the other four people will lock Lin Dong's teammates and never participate in the defense at will.

Not to mention facing someone's defense, even if there is only a person-high obstacle in front of you, how many times can you break through?
50 times? 60 times?If you really have that ability, then you can handle the whole team's scoring by yourself!

There is only one purpose, and that is to completely tire you out!

Even the defensive end is the same.

On the offensive end, the King of Mountains hits the basket hard and uses all kinds of strong attacks. The purpose is to get Lin Dong to participate in the physical fight inside. This can speed up the process of consuming Lin Dong, even if he loses points for it, even if he pays some for it. cost.

But as long as Lin Dong no longer has so much physical strength and impact in the second half, everything will be worth it!
