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

Chapter 153 Still leading at halftime

"What? 28 versus 31?!"

"Xiangbei? Anxi Guangyi's Xiangbei branch?"

"...This stubborn old thing!"

"Tell Domoto that if Sanno loses, his coaching career will be over! I'll be right over!"

"Where is Nishimura? Ask him to go to the arena and wait for me immediately. I'll be there in 10 minutes!"

…………

The atmosphere at the scene was extremely heated.

28:31, and Xiangbei was still in the lead. This score was obviously something that no one had imagined before the game.

Kanagawa fans felt overjoyed.

Shohoku eliminated Hainan before, which was a pity for most Kanagawa fans.

Although everyone knows that Xiangbei wins by strength, and Hainan without Mu Shenyi has already sunk, but based on Xiangbei's subsequent performance against Xiangyang in the county preliminaries, most football commentators believe that Xiangbei has the most games in the first round. Second round strength.

The difference between this and the final scene of the Kanagawa two heroes meeting in the summer league is really too big. Therefore, I have some opinions about Shohoku. I really don’t mean to target Shohoku. It’s just because of the difference. Even if I switch from Hainan to Shohoku at that time, As for the position, I am afraid that I will also be scolded and treated with a critical eye.

But now, all these voices and opinions have disappeared...

Being able to compete with Sanno in such a way, being able to lead Sanno in the first quarter, just having 10 minutes is enough to satisfy all Kanagawa fans.

This is the king of the mountain that NHK touts every day. What about the strength of American high school students... Shohoku can actually perform even better!

Therefore, compared to the Sanno fans who were already a little worried, the voices of the Kanagawa fans cheering for Shohoku were obviously much more cheerful.

Even though the outcome is not clear yet, if Shohoku loses, it would be an honor to lose. Kanagawa fans feel that this is enough to earn money, but if Sanno loses...

lose? When this thought appeared in the minds of Sanwang fans, they suddenly realized how terrible this was.

"Rukawa Kaede feels much more mature than in the summer league. What has this guy been through?"

"Senior Hisashi Mitsui is the one... I feel like he is a different person compared to the prefectural preliminaries. His singles ability has improved a lot." Kamizou Ichiro frowned, a little puzzled.

In the county preliminaries, the reason why Hainan defeated Xiangbei by a huge score was because of two people, one was Sakuragi Hanamichi and the other was Mitsui Hisashi. At that time, it was Ashen who was responsible for defending Mitsui Hisashi.

Although the final result was that he and Hisashi Mitsui clashed with each other, that confrontation was obviously based on Mitsui Hisashi's extraordinary performance. At that time, many of Mitsui Hisashi's shots were unreasonable fairy balls, but today's entire first quarter , facing the defense of Morohoshi, which was obviously a level higher than his own, Hisashi Mitsui played very calmly, and none of those magical three-pointers thrown in desperate situations appeared again.

Every ball has a... plausibility!

This is the manifestation of the difference between luck + explosive seeds and true strength, which couldn't be more obvious.

But the time between the two games was only one month... Did Hisashi Mitsui take the elixir?

"Mitsui has gone through secret special training." Lin Dong said.

I thought that I would definitely find a way to poach Stephen away from Old Earl in the near future. Although I would not be soft on this kind of thing, Old Earl was pretty good to me after all. Now that I have the opportunity, I would give it to him by the way. Let's do some advertising.

"Secret special training?" Kamizou Ichiro, Maki Shinichi, Kiyota Nobunaga, Sendō Akira and others all looked at Lin Dong in surprise: "How do you know?"

"Because I also received training there." Lin Dong said with a smile: "Lloyd Basketball Training Base, over there on Kyushu Island, is very professional."

Everyone was very interested and asked for details.

After Lin Dong briefly introduced the founder, the training process, private one-on-one business, prices, and standards there, he also mentioned that not only himself, but also professional players from Long Country were trained there, etc.

Sendao looked suddenly enlightened, Mu Shenyi frowned somewhat regretfully, Kamizou Ichiro had a look of envy on his face, and Kiyota Nobunaga's eyes suddenly lit up.

It's a bit expensive...but, is there such a good place? No wonder Xiangbei is progressing so fast!

hum hum...

The two sides took a short break. The coaches on both sides took advantage of the players' break and kept explaining on the sidelines with tactical boards. Soon the break ended and the two sides took the field to fight again.

In the first quarter, the opponent's attack rhythm was very fast, so that each other's shooting percentage and number of rounds were greatly reduced. The total score of both sides was nearly 60 points.

This is not a bad team. With the defensive level of each other, the score is already quite high. It is also foreseeable that this kind of confrontation cannot continue forever.

The two sides were already in a state of tension with each other in the second half of the first quarter.

Therefore, although Goro Domoto and Mitsuyoshi Anzai actually have back-ups, in this case, the coaches on both sides will not change players easily.

Changing players and formations, not to mention the effect, first of all means giving in, fearing that you will be defeated first in the attack, which is tantamount to curbing your confidence on the offensive end and boosting your opponent's strength. morale.

At this time, the best way is to continue to attack until one side shows signs of being unable to withstand it at first, or the other side's physical strength is at a disadvantage, and they must find a way to change their moves to determine the outcome! As soon as the second quarter started, the offensive battle between the two sides continued.

Sanno's offensive momentum is still sufficient, with Shigehiro Mori mainly at the basket, focusing on the inside, and his shooting rate is quite high.

Although Akagi sent a foul to help Xiangbei gain another 2-point advantage, with two fouls in hand, Akagi did not dare to make another move easily.

The remaining three fouls on him are like deposits with Shigehiro Mori. He is expected to score 6 points and can be withdrawn at critical moments.

Supplemented by the 3-pointers of Morohoshida, Fukatsu Kazunari and Tsuchiya Jun who were always looking for opportunities on the outside, Sanno's offensive rhythm was wave after wave, without any slump or interruption.

As for Shohoku's offense, Miyagi Ryota's main role is to draw space and connect the team, while Rukawa Kaede and Mitsui Hisashi mainly finish the ball.

Mitsui Hisashi's off-ball escape made Moro Hoshida completely unable to adapt.

Isn't normal getting rid of the ball just a move? All high school students should have this understanding.

But Mitsui Hisashi's ability to get rid of the ball without the ball actually adds many small movements and personal skills to the movement.

Most people's moves are directed at specific positions, moving long distances, using teammates to pick and roll, etc., but he is like spinning in circles. He can circle you seven or eight times on the spot, making Zhu Xingda feel dizzy and want to catch you. Crazy, and then without paying attention, the person disappeared and the empty seat was taken out.

There is also a teammate who can always pass the ball in time. By the time Zhuxing slows down the defense, his 3-pointers have already been taken.

And since the cooperation with Rukawa Kaede began, Mitsui Hisashi's touch has quickly recovered, and his 3-point shooting rate has also improved repeatedly.

Coupled with Rukawa Kaede's singles ability, he can break out, shoot, and pass. Not only was Tsuchiya Junzong completely blown away, but the scene actually looked about the same.

Together, the two almost accounted for more than 80% of Xiangbei's scoring in the second quarter, which was no less than Sanno.

However, with the strengthening of each other's defense during the attack, the shooting percentages of both sides have declined to a certain extent.

So the battle for rebounds became the most important thing to watch in the second quarter.

Judging from the previous momentum, in terms of rebounds, Shigehiro Mori + Minoru Matsumoto are slightly greater than Takenori Akagi + Hanamichi Sakuragi.

But Sakuragi Hanamichi has super adaptability to the basket...

This guy belongs to the type that as long as you don't kill him with a stick, he will definitely be able to lock up his remaining health, and then fight harder and harder, trying desperately to catch up with you.

Mori Shigehiro's methods at the basket are still relatively orthodox, with precise positioning and pure force crushing.

As Sakuragi gradually adapted to Mori Shigehiro's strength, the fight began to flow naturally and smoothly, with quite a few small movements.

Pulling clothes, clamping force points, leveraging your center of gravity, etc., maybe even asking Mori Shigehiro, ‘What is 25 times 25? Answer immediately! ’ and so on, while making Morishigehiro dumbfounded, he was inevitably distracted by him...

After all this, the two sides were evenly matched for rebounds under the basket.

And relying on the excellent performance of both inside and outside, Xiangbei also resisted Sanno's counterattack.

The scores of each other kept rising alternately, but the 3 points held by Shohoku remained unchanged. When the whistle sounded at the end of the first half, the score of 55:58 on the electronic scoreboard showed that Shohoku was still in the lead!

Watching the players on both sides temporarily leave the court and return to the locker room to rest, the fans of Sanwang were also trembling.

Halftime has passed, and Xiangbei is still leading... This is definitely not a momentary luck.

This Xiangbei team is indeed very strong! The Mountain King wouldn't have lost directly before he even saw Xiangyang, would he?

This……

Not to mention ordinary viewers, even NHK's commentator in charge of the live broadcast didn't know how to explain it.

In the months that passed from summer to winter, there were quite a few commentators and celebrities who endorsed Sanno in NHK. It would be fine if they lost to Shoyang, but they lost to Shohoku...

OMG!

As the saying goes, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

There was a collective silence among the foreign fans in the stands, and the commentators on the NHK TV station began to change their tone slightly. After all, no one wanted to be suddenly slapped in the face.

Goro Domoto and all the Sanno players can feel that a thick haze has enveloped the entire Sanno Industrial team!
