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

Chapter 172 Winning or losing is not decided by words!

The space for the shot was completely blocked, but through the physical confrontation during the breakthrough, he still managed to separate the ball from the two of them and went straight to Sakuragi Hanamichi near the free throw line.

At this time, facing an open space that was unguarded in the first two steps, an opportunity appeared, and Sakuragi Hanamichi's eyes were bright.

The mistress couldn't find a chance to make a move, and Rukawa Fox could only act randomly. In the end, she had to rely on her own genius!

After training at Lloyd for so long, in addition to defense, I can also attack!

At this time, he was able to hold his breath. He bent his legs slightly, held the ball with his left hand, and took a slight aim towards the basket while holding the ball with his right hand.

Toru Hanagata, who was guarding the inside, knew that Takano would not be able to defend in time. He reacted quickly and jumped out with a big step, holding his palms high and raising his center of gravity slightly.

However, Sakuragi Hanamichi just made a feint, facing Hanagata Toru's body, he actually handed the ball to his left hand and turned his back on the spot.

A ray of light flashed on the flower-shaped lens. He had been fooled by Sakuragi's fake move once before, how could he be fooled a second time?

At this time, the lifted center of gravity suddenly sank, and his body turned slightly to one side, intercepting Sakuragi's breakthrough.

Unexpectedly, Sakuragi Hanamichi turned around and stood up at the same time.

Not a breakthrough?

Hanagata Toru was surprised. She originally thought that Sakuragi Hanamichi only knew one or two moves, but she didn't expect that she had already learned and used them flexibly.

His center of gravity was already depressed, and it was too late to jump up again.

There was only a basket left in front of Sakuragi Hanamichi. He held the ball with his left hand and supported the ball with his right hand. He kept the shooting tips in mind, but he heard a muffled voice behind him: "Be careful of Lin Dong!"

Xiangbei has already suffered from this trick, how can he still believe it?

But next second...

Sakuragi Hanamichi felt the sound of wind behind him, and a big hand had reached out from behind.

At this time, he subconsciously turned his wrist and threw it, but the ball disappeared as soon as he got out of his hand.

"Ah..." Sakuragi Hanamichi turned around and saw that it was indeed Lin Dong.

The shout just now was made by Rukawa Kaede. The first thing that came to mind at this time was that the fox must be snickering again, but then he saw that Rukawa Kaede didn't even look at him, and was already moving towards Lin Dong with all his strength. Block it.

Sakuragi Hanamichi was stunned. The words that had just come to his mouth were suddenly stuck, and his expression became slightly solemn.

I saw Lin Dong turning around while hooking the ball in mid-air. When he landed, he turned his heels, as if there were eyes behind his back. With a silky movement like a top, he thrust straight towards the left side of Rukawa Kaede who was pursuing him.

Rukawa Kaede had already taken the distance accurately. This was still in his own half, so the opponent couldn't shoot directly. He placed himself one and a half steps away from the defensive position.

At this moment, blood surged all over his body, veins popped up on his muscles, and he took extremely large diagonal steps, which were actually faster than an ordinary person's full sprint, completely blocking Lin Dong's route to the left.

Lin Dong's eyes flashed with excitement. This guy's previous speed was not an accident... This is interesting!

A ray of light flashed from his eyes.

Rukawa Kaede felt that the opponent's speed was already too fast for him to cope with, but he actually increased his speed by half a minute again.

Where is this person's limit? !

Rukawa Kaede's pupils were constricted at this time, and the load on his heartbeat had reached its maximum, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.

But even though the blood in his whole body was so violent, in just four or five steps, Lin Dong was still able to take half of his body.

The two were now less than one step away, and Rukawa Kaede also changed from a diagonal block to a complete side block.

It's true that I can't keep up with my speed, but fortunately I've reached the three-point line in the backcourt of Xiangbei, and it's time to get in shape!

——Don’t be so cautious. Have you just graduated from kindergarten? When you need to pull on your clothes, pull on your clothes, and when you need to lift your arms, pull on your arms. Remember to turn your back to the referee. What’s more important is the swing arc of your arm movements. The referee can’t feel how hard you are pulling, he will only watch. Come on, let me teach you how to use the smallest swing to pull the maximum force...

He had learned the tricks that Stephen once taught him, but he just didn't bother to use them, but now he could not help but use them.

While maintaining rapid movement, he took the initiative to stick to Lin Dong, using the obstacles of his body and hands to forcefully slow down the opponent.

This pulling action was actually quite obvious, and it did not completely block the referee's view. The referee's whistle was already put to his mouth, but Rukawa Kaede was stuck at the limit and did not blow it.

But Lin Dong suddenly stopped.

An emergency stop at such a high speed, if his hands were not still firmly on Lin Dong's clothes and he felt the opponent's emergency stop for the first time, Rukawa Kaede might not have been able to stop the car at all.

Even so, Lin Dong suddenly took a step away, and the clothes he was holding on to were released.

Dry pull?

A sudden stop must be a shot. This is the inertia of thinking.

This thought flashed through Rukawa Kaede's mind, but he saw Lin Dong stepping inside the three-point line.

At this moment, Fu Ling's heart was so strong that his sixth sense surpassed his instinctive judgment. Instead of jumping up, he forcibly stabilized his center of gravity while blocking to the other side.

This sixth sense judgment saved his defense. Lin Dong was in the mood for a breakthrough. He felt that although Rukawa Kaede's defensive speed was a bit reluctant and his control was slightly poor at this time, in terms of speed, even compared to Stephen, it was indeed There was no need to give in too much, and he was not willing to shoot him directly.

While making an emergency stop, he suddenly pulled a big pendulum clock with both hands. Controlling the ball with his right hand turned into controlling the ball with his left hand. The rapid change of direction had already made him rush towards Rukawa Kaede's right side.

Relying on the early warning and judgment in his heart, Rukawa Kaede took the first step to block the front, but then he felt that Lin Dong's speed had increased by one point!

Breakthrough from the left!

Rukawa Kaede's mind buzzed.

——Lin Dong is left-handed, and his ability to control the ball with his left hand is not weaker than that of his right hand. His breakthrough from the left is sharper than that from the right. If he cannot force his breakthrough from the left, it still means that he still has room for power!

I finally saw Lin Dong's breakthrough from the left, but... it was too fast!

Even with advance judgment, as the opponent had already shaken his center of gravity in advance and his speed increased sharply, he only had time to block the first step, but by the second step, Lin Dong was already behind him.

Keep up! Keep up!

Rukawa Kaede's eyes were about to burst at this moment, and all his energy was focused on lateral movement, which was almost throwing his whole body's weight towards the right!

But the next second, the feeling of physical contact and confrontation disappeared, and Lin Dong suddenly stopped and retreated again.

There is no change of direction this time. Even if he is as strong as Lin Dong, it is not easy to stop under such an extreme center of gravity. Changing direction again is beyond his ability.

But that's enough.

Rukawa Kaede's consciousness wanted to pull back again, but the right move just now had thrown his body out. Not to mention Lin Dong's sudden stop, even if Lin Dong didn't stop, he might not be able to control the stability of his body.

At this time, his eyes were unwilling to watch Lin Dong's movements. He made a slight jump and shot a mid-range shot. However, Rukawa Kaede had already tilted to the right, tripped under his feet, and fell violently.

Swish!

boom!

The basketball hit the net hollowly, and Rukawa Kaede was thrown two or three meters away by his own inertia. He was completely unable to stand and hit the camera stand on the sidelines.

The photographer was so frightened that he quickly held on to the camera, but when he hugged the camera, he realized that he should help others first. At this moment, he hugged the camera, but the camera stand fell to the ground along with Rukawa Kaede who was thrown away. , a 'clicking' sound could be heard, and I don't know if it was the camera frame that was broken or Rukawa Kaede's bones that were broken.

This time, just by hearing the sound, it was clear that the fall was not light, and Lin Dong was also a little awe-inspiring.           Excited just because I'm patronizing...

But under normal circumstances, people will leave a little bit of room for any of their actions. This is human instinct, but this guy really didn't leave any space for himself just now. This is really desperate.

and many more……

A blood stain stretched across the ground attracted everyone's attention, although it didn't look like a lot, more like it was wiped out.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah! Rukawa is injured!" The faces of the Rukawa Mikoto team in the stands instantly turned pale, and they were all so filled with indignation that they wanted to devour the cameraman.

"Rukawa-san!" Haruko was also very worried after seeing this, and quickly wanted to run down to the stands to have a look, but was so frightened that Takamiya Wang and others stopped her.

"Haruko, you don't have a player card!"

"That's right, last time we had Brother Gao Ren, so we could follow him."

"Calm down! Calm down!" After finally persuading Haruko, Okusuo and others breathed a sigh of relief.

Previously, I felt that Hanamichi was a bit at odds with Rukawa Kaede. If Haruko continues to care about Rukawa Kaede, Hanamichi will go crazy...

"It seems like he's bleeding!"

"That guy is really hardworking!"

"Tsk, the camera shouldn't be placed next to the basketball stand! It's too dangerous! I don't know if I hurt my head."

The scene was in an uproar at this time, and there were endless chatter and chatter.

Shhh!

The referee stopped the game with a whistle and stepped forward to check.

The nearest Miyagi Ryota, Ayako and Coach Anzai on the sidelines were startled and hurried forward.

Sakuragi Hanamichi, Mitsui Hisashi and others also rushed over from the front court, but saw that Rukawa Kaede had already lifted himself up from the ground.

At this time, you can see a large scratch mark on his left shoulder, as if it was poked by the broken camera stand. Fortunately, no bones or blood vessels were injured.

Caiko breathed a sigh of relief after the inspection, and coach Anzai said to the referee: "Xiangbei changed..."

Before the word of substitution came out, Rukawa Kaede had already pressed Coach Anzai's shoulder: "Coach."

He didn't say much else: "Just wrap it up for me!"

"Nonsense, even if no bones are injured, you need to stop the bleeding first and bandage it for more than one or two minutes. It's best to wait for the second half..."

"Then don't go down in my place." Rukawa Kaede ignored Ayako's scolding. He didn't seem to feel the pain of the bruise on his shoulder at all. He just gasped for air, then looked into Coach Anxi's eyes, and suddenly Bowed: "Please, coach!"

Coach Anxi opened his mouth, and finally turned to look at the referee.

"Xiangbei requests a timeout!"

………………

Fujima and others were also a little shocked when they saw Ayako and the team doctor on the Shobei side bandaging Rukawa Kaede.

"You're trying too hard..." Hanagata Toru could completely understand Rukawa Kaede's "uncontrollable" behavior at that moment.

That guy 'almost' guarded Lin Dong, who was at full speed!

The more he got to know Lin Dong, the more Toru Hanagata understood how difficult this thing was. At that moment, Rukawa Kaede had completely surpassed the human body's instinct. He was really throwing himself into a defensive position as if he were an 'object'. Out!

"Everyone has their own story, but it looks like the injury is not serious. It's best to take a rest." Fujima said.

"He will be back soon." Lin Dong drank water with a faint smile on his face. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Xiangbei, but did not look at Rukawa Kaede, but looked at the direction that was a little dull at this time. Sakuragi Hanamichi, Lin Dong said with a smile: "Maybe he will bring someone back with him, then this game will be really interesting."

Sakuragi Hanamichi just felt a little mixed at this time.

When the ball was intercepted just now, he originally wanted to scold Rukawa Kaede to vent his anger, but when he saw the opponent trying his best to defend, he suddenly couldn't curse.

They clearly reminded me, it was clear that I was only thinking about scoring and being in the limelight, it was clear that I was being careless, it was clear that...how could I still have the nerve to scold someone who was trying to make up for my mistakes?

Caiko had already cleaned Rukawa Kaede's wound at this time, and the team doctor had bandaged it with gauze and tape, but some blood stains could still be seen soaking through the surface of the gauze.

"Although the blood vessels were not injured, the amount of bleeding is a bit heavy. It's best to rest for a while." The team doctor tied it and fixed it, stretched out his hand and pressed it gently, feeling the amount of blood soaked out, and suggested: "The applied It will take a while for the medicine to take effect. If strenuous exercise is resumed immediately, the amount of bleeding will increase..."

"It's okay, don't worry about it." Rukawa Kaede just replied with two words.

Everyone knew that he had made up his mind. The team doctor shook his head, but it was difficult to persuade him. Sakuragi Hanamichi swallowed his saliva.

Dong dong, dong dong...

He could hear his own heartbeat pounding.

If he hadn't listened to Rukawa Kaede's reminder and forced the shot, the ball would not have been missed, and he would not have had to chase the whole court, and he would not have been injured...

It's all my fault.

"Hug, I'm sorry!" After all, she considered herself a brave man, so Sakuragihua took the initiative and said, "It was my fault for the ball just now."

Coach Anxi's ears suddenly perked up slightly.

But Rukawa Kaede just glanced at him sideways and said nothing.

Now it was Sakuragi's turn to feel a little unhappy: "Hey, I've already apologized, why don't you say something?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Rukawa Kaede said calmly: "I am Xiangbei's ace, and it is my business to face Lin Dong."

Sakuragi Hanamichi was stunned, and the guilt in his heart suddenly turned into rage: "Why does it become your business? Defending Lin Dong is my business, dad said so! The newspapers said so!"

"Newspaper..." Rukawa Kaede smiled contemptuously: "Can you keep up?"

"Uh..." Sakuragi Hanamichi was speechless. The two defenses just now were indeed because he failed to keep up with Lin Dong's rhythm.

"Compared to when you beat me at Lloyd, you are inferior now." Rukawa Kaede said coldly: "If you want to win, just keep up. If you don't have the ability, just shut up. Winning or losing is never decided by words... ...Newspaper? Haha!"
