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

Chapter 109 Absolute Strength

"Xiangyang's momentum seems to be different."

"The light comes back." Fukatsu Kazunari said: "What can they do?"

"The level of other people is there, it's nothing more than letting Lin Dong play." Goro Domoto laughed: "The role of a superstar is to stand up when the team cannot open up the situation, but isn't this exactly our purpose? ?”

"It's just a 10-point advantage. He may be able to fight back soon, but don't panic. Keep fighting him. Remember, just make him tired, even if it's a foul, even if it happens to him!"

"Usually fouls are just to reduce the opponent's score, but today, the fouls are to exchange for his physical strength. Don't waste it on others to see how long he can play!"

"You are also at a level that can defeat the national team. Come on, victory must belong to us!"

"on!"

The two teams returned, Xiangyang had the ball.

Toru Hanagata stood at the baseline and served. Sanno was not surprised that Zebei and Kazunari Fukatsu blocked Lin Dong. Without the ball, the two caught one!

But at this time, what the two of them saw was a smile on Lin Dong's face.

"Is two enough?" Lin Dong smiled and spoke to them for the first time.

Zebei and Fukatsu Kazunari were slightly startled when Hanagata Toru threw a high ball towards Lin Dong.

With a taller height and wingspan than both of them, Lin Dong lightly jumped to catch the ball. The moment he landed, Kazunari Fukatsu had already followed up with the action of grabbing the ball from behind.

But next second...

Lin Dong held the ball in both hands and quickly turned his back. While avoiding Kazunari Fukatsu's hand, his right leg was already pinned to Zebei's side.

With just one action, the defense that the two believed to be indestructible was directly resolved.

speed up!
The body suddenly activated, and the super powerful explosion caused Zebei and Fukatsu Kazunari to be left behind in the moment they reacted!
Two-and-one without the ball, so easy to break? !

Masashi Kawada in front was slightly startled and subconsciously took a step to intercept him, but Lin Dong, who was rushing over, changed his direction like a ghost and knocked him to the ground.

Jump in the penalty area and slam dunk in one step!
boom!
It takes only a few seconds to catch the ball and pass the ball. All the operations are smooth and smooth.

31: 22.

"Wow! Brother Takato is resurrected!"

"The real battle is about to begin." Mu Shenyi's eyes were also shining: "He is unstoppable after all. There is only one biggest problem, and that is his physical fitness."

"It's okay, come again!"

Kazunari Fukatsu shouted.

Sanno Industrial's baseline ball was sent out, but this time, Xiangyang's defensive formation had changed.

Lin Dong actually guarded the basket!

Goro Domoto, who was on the sidelines, had a smile on his face and signaled Fukatsu Kazunari to slow down his attack.

This is really... If you want to recover the score quickly, of course you must first guard Xiangyang's inside line. If you can't do the flower shape, of course Lin Dong can do it.

This guy is a man with extraordinary strength who can defend even a 202cm 99kg NBA rookie center.

But this is exactly what I want!

Melee fighting under the basket is the best opportunity to consume the opponent's energy!

Kawada Masashi pushed directly into the basket.

With the same height, Masashi Kawada has a weight advantage of 5KG. His weight of 90KG makes him look much stronger than Lin Dong.

As soon as he came in, he immediately put his whole body's weight on his shoulders and squeezed towards Lin Dong.

Either give way or... hmm?

It was only during this squeeze that Masashi Kawada realized that he had an extremely unreal feeling.

The opponent did not choose to exchange brute strength with him. The wingspan of his hands held him behind him, and his flexible steps seemed to have eyes behind his back. No matter how he went around, he could not get around the opponent's blockade.

And after occupying a favorable position, the center of gravity of the body is very low, and I use a lot of brute force to push up. The opponent may only need to spend seven or eight points of effort to ensure that he does not lose his position.

There was no chance inside. Seeing Lin Dong guarding the basket, and Hanagata and Takano Shoichi forming a long man position in the penalty area, Fukatsu Kazunari gave up the idea of ​​forcing the basket and passed the ball to Matsumoto on the right baseline. Min.

But Fujima's death coil also followed closely.

Fujima's eyes flashed, he may not be in the state yet, and his hand may still feel a little cold, but at least defense, defense is his instinct!

The tight defense gave Matsumoto no chance to make a three-point shot. He wanted to break through, but he hit the wall twice in front of Fujima who was fully focused and had to pass the ball out again.

But Satoshi Ichinokura had no outside line, and Eiji Zebei's three-pointers were only average. Facing the basket guarded by Lin Dong, Fukatsu felt that Zebei didn't dare to hit it as soon as he could.

Seeing that there were only a few seconds left in the attack time, Fukatsu Kazunari made a three-pointer of his own, and then he really felt what Xiangyang felt just now.

The lack of rebounds is a huge psychological burden for the shooter. The moment he takes the shot, it feels like the ball is missing.

Bang!
Sure enough, the basketball bounced on the rim.

Jump?
Lin Dong didn't even jump, he just squeezed his lowered center of gravity back at the right time, which was like a 'skill interruption' and destroyed the rhythm of Masashi Kawada's jump.

The basketball fell in front of Lin Dong and picked it up easily.

This is the most energy-saving method when both offense and defense have to fight.

Lin Dong didn't need to speak this time. When Fukatsu Kazunari made the three-pointer, Hanagata Toru was already running towards the frontcourt.

Kanagawa's number one offensive center, but in fact Hanagata was still playing the power forward position in his first grade. His technical characteristics were just like that, but it was just that no one in Shoyang could hit the basket, so he was only in his second grade. It’s just a matter of time to catch the duck and put it on the shelves.

He is indeed not good at the basket, but his offensive awareness is absolutely top-notch!
The advance movement was very fast, but Fukatsu Kazunari followed closely and came up to defend, faster than Hanagata.

At this time, Lin Dong had already raised his arm and made a long pass. The basketball spanned almost the entire distance in the air.

Kazunari Fukatsu and Toru Hanagata took off at the same time.

After all, there was a height difference of 17 centimeters... Even though Kazunari Fukatsu's bounce was much better, the ball was still picked up by Hanagata Tooru without any accident.

Without Masashi Kawada's suppression, a bright light flashed through the flower-shaped lens.

The flower shape that landed on the ground immediately took off twice.

boom!
The basketball was smashed into the basket by him.

31: 23!

Coach Anxi on the sidelines clenched his fist fiercely.

There was nothing he could do to let Lin Dong break out early. He originally thought that Lin Dong would have to at least lead Xiangyang for several minutes, or even play the entire first half, to recover the score or even take the lead. To inspire Fujima and Hanagata Toru, they didn't expect this scene to happen so quickly!
Domoto Goro was stunned.

Suffocate every other player in Xiangyang?
This can indeed be done by finding the right matchup when attacking or defending in a prepared position.

But what if Xiangyang plays fast break and mismatches?

Sanno's personal ability allows each of them to be able to defend against Fujima alone, but the difference in height is that only Sawabita and Kawada Masashi have the ability to defend against Hanakato Toru alone!

Compared to Fujima, this seems to be another trump card of Xiangyang.

It doesn't matter how many points are recovered. This was expected early on, but this point recovery cannot be completed by others in Xiangyang!

"Zebei!" Goro Domoto gestured from the sidelines.

Masashi Kawada wants to consume Lin Dong under the basket, so when defending Xiangyang's fast break, he can only let Eiji Sawabita defend Hanakato Toru alone.

Mountain King's possession of the ball.

Fujima sticks to Matsumoto Minoru, Kanagawa's second-best point guard after Maki Shinichi, and his defensive skills are not something that Matsumoto Minoru can get rid of.

Hasegawa stuck closely to Eiji Sawabita.

...He actually used the attrition tactic on Sanwang. Is Xiangyang planning to compete with Sanwang for physical strength?How long can these two people keep a close eye on each other?

Fukatsu Kazunari didn't take it seriously, so let them consume it first to see who was exhausted first.

Kawada Masashi continued to dominate Lin Dong under the basket.Kazunari Fukatsu and Satoshi Ichinokura didn't dare to rush into the position of Xiangyang's three great men. As for the outside... the three-pointer just now made Kazunari Fukatsu a little afraid to shoot.

While he was hesitating, Eiji Sawabita had already moved over with Hasegawa and made a gesture to ask for the ball.

We also have an ace!
The basketball was in the hands of Eiji Zebei.

There was an emergency stop at the moment of catching the ball, and Hasegawa, who was moving laterally, was suddenly taken a step away.

Sawabita Eiji made a low dive and slipped through the gap that Hanagata Toru and Takano Shoichi immediately blocked.

In front are Lin Dong and Kawada Masashi, with Lin Dong intercepting them in front.

Facing this high school student who is known as the strongest in Japan, Sawabita Eiji jumped up without hesitation.

——Zebei, you are not his opponent yet.

——Zebei, he is stronger than Takehiko Orishige...

Zebei Eiji was convinced. It was not that he couldn't see Lin Dong's strength, but so what?
If you don't dare to face it because of this, how far can you go to the United States to fight?

A trace of arrogance rose uncontrollably from Zebei Eiji's heart.

Lin Dong also jumped up at the same time.

Beat?Zebei is not that stupid, all he wants is for the other party to jump!

The scene of discounting Shigetakehiko's ball flashed through Zebita Eiji's mind. The basketball changed hands, his body tilted slightly in the air, and he threw the basketball behind Lin Dong, who had already jumped.

This is not a one-on-one, this is a two-on-one, and there is Masashi Kawada who has been air-defended!

But next second...

Snapped!
Lin Dong's big hands seemed to have already calculated his passing route, intercepting the ball quickly and accurately.

It was cut off!
Whoa!
The stadium was filled with uproar.

Does this work too? !

"That person feels so powerful..."

"It's so awesome. Why did you think you were surpassed by 10 points just now?"

Buzzing buzzing sound.

At the same time, Xiangyang's Fujima and Hanagata had already started running ahead of time.

Sanno's response was extremely fast this time. The moment the ball was intercepted, Eiji Sawabita immediately landed on the ground and ran back. In the frontcourt, Kazunari Fukatsu and Satoshi Ichinokura had already returned to defense at the same time.

Ichinokura Satoshi followed Fujima closely, not slowing down at all.

After a long pass, Takano Akira received the ball and immediately passed it to Hanagata Toru in front.

But Fukatsu Kazunari relied on his speed advantage to stop in front of Hanagata Toru, using physical confrontation to block the opponent's movement and prevent the opponent from easily reaching the basket.

Hanagata was within a hand's reach, but the position was still a little too far. In just this moment of hesitation, Sawabita Eiji's defense was already in place, forming a double-team with Fukatsu and Hanagata. But at the same time, a wave of The hurricane-like figures had also rushed past them.

There was a smile on the corner of Hana Xingtou's mouth, and he threw the basketball in his hand towards the basket.

The figure that caught up like a hurricane jumped high, and the alley-oop smashed the basketball into the basket.

boom!
The basket buzzed as it was smashed, and the huge jersey number on the back of the Xiangyang player hanging on the basket seemed to be deeply imprinted in the minds of everyone in the arena at this moment.

Number 13!
31: 25.

The King of Mountains opened the score quickly?Is Xiangyang too slow to catch up?

Kazunari Fukatsu, Eiji Sawabita and others all had a look of surprise on their faces. Three consecutive goals and a small climax of 6:0 obviously made Sanno, who was going smoothly just now, a little confused.

Until Goro Domoto's voice shouted from the sidelines.

"Hey!" Domoto Goro said loudly: "Do your own thing, this is part of the strategy!"

call……

Several people from the Mountain King couldn't help but let out a long breath at this time.

Yes... that guy is unstoppable, and Sanno's tactics are attrition. Even before the game, coach Goro Domoto was already prepared to start the second half behind by about 20 points.

Now the score is getting closer, but that guy's physical strength is also being consumed rapidly... If the opponent is that guy, it's worth exchanging points for the opponent's physical strength!

After re-arranging the formation, Sanwang obviously calmed down his mentality, but soon, everyone in Sanwang discovered a huge problem...

Sanno played a positional battle. Eiji Zebei reached the basket twice but was stopped by Lin Dong. The reverse fast break was unbearable by Sanno.

31: 29.

Sanno changed his offensive thinking, and Eiji Sawabita and Minoru Matsumoto started a pick-and-roll. While relying on Sabita to stop Fujima, Minoru Matsumoto, a guy who had been so hot before, took two shots from beyond the three-point line.

But both times the iron was struck.

Lin Dong's intimidating power under the basket is so strong. Standing there, he already gave the mountain king a feeling that he would not be able to grab the rebound.

Without the guarantee of rebounds, the psychological pressure that shooters need to face is unimaginable. Only truly first-class shooters can withstand it.

And shooters like Minoru Matsumoto, who have been hastily built through extensive training in a short period of time, obviously cannot withstand such pressure.

Bang!Bang!
Two consecutive strikes allowed Xiangyang, who successfully grabbed the rebound, to make two fast breaks.

The score went back to 31:33.

The first quarter is over.

The second quarter, which came after a short break, continued the rhythm at the end of the first quarter.

Lin Dong's fast break was unstoppable, but his control at the basket made the Mountain King feel miserable.

Unable to hit the inside line, whether it was Eiji Sawabita or Kazunari Fukatsu, they forced the inside line several times and were either forced to redistribute the ball or lost the ball due to Lin Dong's blockade.

The shooting rate from the outside is also very impressive. Minoru Matsumoto made hits one after another. On the contrary, Satoshi Ichinokura, who is not good at three-pointers, made two shots in open situations.

In comparison, Xiangyang's fast break is much more effective.

Sanno's defense has reached its extreme. Sawokita Eiji's blockade on Hanagata Tohru and Ichinokura Satoshi's blockade on Fujima are still effective most of the time, but Xiangyang has Lin Dong... and he handles the ball. At this time, the hit rate is almost [-]%.

I finally saw him miss a shot, and I thought this guy was finally getting tired, but when I turned around, I saw him flying into the sky and escaping...

Both ends of the offense and defense were controlled by Lin Dong alone, as if he had completely taken over the game, and silenced almost all the Sanwang supporters in the stands.

33:38；35:42；38:49；40：53……

The score was kept widened by Xiangyang.

Goro Domoto had already stood up from his seat and was walking around on the sidelines.

The only thing he was thankful for now was probably that Lin Dong's physical strength was indeed being consumed at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

Masashi Kawada seemed to have no presence at all in the entire second quarter, but Goro Domoto knew that he, who had been wrestling with Lin Dong under the basket, was the person who contributed the most to Sanno in the entire second quarter...

Be sure to hold on!
Goro Domoto on the sidelines clenched his fists tightly and kept using gestures to direct the players on the court to change formations.

But before the whistle sounded at the end of the first half, the widened score gap still made Goro Domoto feel a little unacceptable.

45: 69.

The gap of 24 points has exceeded Goro Domoto's plan before the game to lose at most 20 points in the first half.

What's even more terrifying is that Lin Dong!Still alive and well!

　We immediately changed the voice of scolding the referee before, because what they said did make sense.

　　Now, scolding the protagonist for beating up the Mountain King should be like beating up a primary school student. Brothers, please be more careful.

　　This is a two-dimensional character entering the real world. In the real world, how many Japanese high schools in 2000 can slam dunk?And if I write later that Japan’s Slam Dunk Corps reached the Olympic quarter-finals, what kind of scolding will they receive?

　　I'm an old author. If the criticism is correct, we will correct it right away. This is all to make the book more beautiful. But if the criticism is wrong, I have to say a few words. How about you write it, brother?
