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

Chapter 176 This Xiangbei team is qualified!

Xiangyang's possession of the ball.

The changes in Xiangbei's formation had immediate effects.

In fact, it was still a gamble, using Rukawa Kaede and Sakuragi Hanamichi to block Lin Dong's scoring, Miyagi blocked Fujima's outside line, and Mitsui Hisashi blocked Hanagata Toru's outside line.

Shoyo doesn't have many options left. Either Toru Toru and Toru Hanagata attack Shohoku's inside line. With Toru Hanagata's ability, it's easy to get past the tired Mitsui Hisashi's defense, and it's easy for Touma to force their way in, let alone Fujima. Having said that, the evolved Fujima cannot be stopped by Miyagi.

But the problem is, Shohoku has Akagi on the inside.

At the same time, Miyagi Ryota's abundant physical strength also came into play at this time. He followed the whole process and blocked Fujima's outside line. At the same time, his seemingly ubiquitous figure also blocked the smoothness of Xiangyang's offense.

But in Hanagata's eyes, Xiangyang obviously still has points of attack.

Ito Zhuo on the right baseline is already open.

Hanagata Toru made a long pass, and Ito Taku was open for a 3-pointer.

Maybe it was psychological pressure, or maybe it was because he faced Miyagi's defense in the first half. He chose to hit the inside line for several shots, but did not have the touch from the outside. In addition, his shooting rate was not high, and the basketball rebounded out of the box.

Although there was Hasegawa under the basket at this time, he was far from a match for Takenori Akagi. Akagi took off the rebound and Shohoku counterattacked.

Since the flower shape was already at the top of the 3-point arc and retreated very quickly, Xiangbei did not have the opportunity to quickly attack the basket, but after just a little stabilization, the closing tactic just now was immediately performed again.

So everyone was surprised to find that the 'double pick-and-roll' in Xiangbei just now was not a coincidence, they did it on purpose!

Hisashi Mitsui first pulled to the inside, and then Miyagi Ryota forced a cut inside, handed the ball to Hisashi Mitsui, and immediately pulled it to the outside.

The iron wall composed of Sakuragi Hanamichi and Akagi Takenori has been waiting there for a long time. Mitsui Hisashi entered the door, and the two immediately closed the door. With the help of their bodies, they waited for an open shot...

No, even safer than an empty seat.

Because there is a possibility of interference from others in the open position, but when there are two teammates standing in front of him like two gun mounts, Mitsui Hisashi firmly believes that no matter what kind of interference, these two people will fend him off. !

The basketball came out again, and when the ball came out, Mitsui Hisashi's fist was already clenched.

But I saw the basketball drawing a perfect arc in the air.

Swish!

Hollow into the net, Xiangbei chased another 3 points!

52:46, only 6 points left!

The faces of everyone in Xiangbei were filled with confidence and excitement.

"Ho!" Takenori Akagi was so excited that he bumped shoulders with Sakuragi. The tactics this guy came up with actually worked!

Rukawa Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead, and when he turned to look at Lin Dong, his eyes finally showed a trace of belief in victory.

Mitsui Hisunori clenched his fists tightly. He was already very tired, but he could still hold on!

"Be on guard against them!" Miyagi Ryota shouted loudly as he retreated much faster than before.

"Defend! Defend! Defend!"

"Shobei! Shobei! Shobei!"

Xiangyang turned around to attack quickly, but the suddenly high morale of the Xiangbei generals completely implemented the defensive strategy just now, and in an instant, the same situation as before was formed.

Facing Fujima, who was desperately clinging to Miyagi, and Lin Dong, who was almost sandwiched by Rukawa Kaede and Sakuragi Hanamichi, the bottom line on the right was a big space vacated by Ito Taku. Hanagata Toru couldn't help but pass. reason.

Little did he know that Yin Tengzhuo was starting to panic a little at this time.

Coach Anxi on the sidelines watched nervously.

Frankly speaking, facing this Xiangyang, Xiangbei can only rely on gambling.

He bet that Ito Taku's three-pointers were not stable enough, and that Ito Taku's psychological quality was not strong enough. When Shohoku began to chase points, and when the pressure to score was put on a role player, he bet that Ito Taku couldn't make the shot!

A 3-point shot from an open position, and the next second...

Bang!

Basketball was playing again, and Coach Anxi breathed a sigh of relief.

After failing to make two open shots in succession, it seems that even God is on the side of Xiangbei! With Ito Taku's psychological quality, missing two shots from outside is enough to make him dare not shoot again. Then Xiangyang's outside will be completely strangled, and victory is right in front of him!

Xiangbei's rapid counterattack was almost exactly the same as before. The only difference was that Lin Dong moved!

Giving up on Rukawa Kaede, he rushed towards Mitsui Hisashi.

Mitsui Hisashi was secretly shocked. With his ball control ability, it would be difficult for him to control the ball in front of Lin Dong to complete tactical movements. Fortunately, Lin Dong did not take action to steal his ball, and his movement speed seemed to be slower than his normal speed. many.

Is it because facing the defense of Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede for most of the game, Lin Dong, who is as strong as Lin Dong, feels tired?

Mitsui Hisashi thought so.

Since Lin Dong's defense is 'not very good', then we should fight when it's time to fight.

Sakuragi and Akagi took the initiative to respond, allowing Mitsui to take one step less. But at the moment the door closed, Lin Dong did not hit him like the previous defenders. Instead, he turned his back as if he had predicted it, and unexpectedly passed by Akagi. Xian walked around.

Over there, Mitsui Toucai just closed the door and turned around, but before he could jump up, he saw Lin Dong's two eyes staring at him, and at the same time, a big hand had already cut towards the basketball in his hand.

Why isn't it closed?

Mitsui Shou was shocked.

But since Lin Dong has been pulled to defend himself, that means...

No need to cast it yourself!

In a flash of thought, Mitsui Hisashi did not choose to force the ball when faced with Lin Dong's side defense. Instead, he turned his hands to protect the ball and almost handed it to Sakuragi in front of him.

Sakuragi could feel the pressure from Lin Dong behind him.

At this time, Mitsui Hisashi, who had an outside line, had been 'locked', and he and Akagi were both at the top of the three-point arc. Miyagi had no inside line, leaving only Rukawa Kaede.

This is an opportunity that the team has created with great difficulty. As long as it is passed to him, the ball will go in!

If you can score goals, you can win!

Facing Lin Dong's defensive ability, the opportunity is fleeting.

At this moment, Sakuragi's mind was completely free of any other distracting thoughts, and he had already subconsciously thrown the ball high towards the basket.

In that direction, the figure of No. 11 had already leaped up, caught the ball in the air and made a violent slam dunk.

boom!

The basketball was smashed into the basket, and the basket frame made a buzzing and trembling sound.

52: 48!

The eyes of Miyagi, Akagi, Mitsui and others all flashed with disbelief, and their mouths opened wide. Not only them, but Takamiya Nozomi and Haruko in the stands, and even Ayako, Coach Anzai, etc. on the sidelines, all had expressions of disbelief on their faces at this time.

Those two people can actually cooperate?

Rukawa Kaede, who was hanging on the basket rack, also had a flash of relief in his eyes. The image of Lloyd being brutally tortured by Sakuragi was shattered at this moment.

——As long as you can work together, you will be the strongest combination in Japan. Even if your opponent is Lin Dong-san, you will definitely win!

Rukawa Kaede took a deep breath.

Immediately, everyone watched in stunned silence as Rukawa Kaede, who fell from the basket, actually ran straight towards Sakuragi Hanamichi.

At this moment, winning over Lin Dong became the only thought in these two people's minds.

Snapped!

"Roar!" Accompanied by Sakuragi Hanamichi's roar, his two big hands slapped together fiercely.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hanamichi is crazy!" Sakuragi Legion shouted out in collective delirium.

"Woooooooooo..." Haruko covered her mouth in excitement.

Coach Anxi on the sidelines took a deep breath and couldn't help but close his eyes.

The two strongest people in Shohoku and the two best basketball geniuses in Japan are bound by fate. At this moment, they finally put aside all their past grudges and stand on the same line for the same goal.

Coach Anxi has been waiting for this moment for too long.

When these two people are completely side by side, that is the strongest Xiangbei!

If you can win, even if your opponent is Lin Dong, you will definitely win!

Coach Anxi was so excited that he burst into tears. He had never been so determined as he is now.

The Xiangbei fans cheered completely in the stands. After being stubborn and stalemate in the first half, they suddenly found a way to open up the situation in the second half!

"Shobei! Shobei! Shobei!"

"Wow wow wow, Rukawa! Rukawa!"

"No. 10 and No. 14 are also very good!"

"This Xiangbei team is too strong, too strong! Stronger than Xiangyang!"

"If we can win, we will definitely win!"

Even though they were still 4 points behind, the cheers from the audience had completely overwhelmed the momentum of the Xiangyang fans.

In the eyes of Goro Domoto, Shigehiro Mori, and even Shinichi Maki, Sendō and other players in the stands, there was nothing but awe and respect for Shohoku.

Everyone could see at this time that Xiangbei's tactics were too successful. Although Lin Dong had the ability to lock anyone down, locking down Mitsui Tou meant letting go of Rukawa Kaede, locking Rukawa Kaede, and Mitsui Tou with the help of the two big men. The closing tactic has almost no solution.

Even on the defensive end, Xiangbei's targeted defense and the way of betting on Xiangyang's substitute mentality have seriously hindered Xiangyang's offense.

If in the first half everyone only saw that Xiangbei had the capital to fight against Xiangyang, then at this moment...

Xiangyang is already at its wits end, Xiangbei must win!

Not to mention them, even Fujima and Toru Hanagata finally showed a slight loosening of faith in their eyes.

Could Xiangyang really lose? Could it be...but the next second?

"Hi, Teng Zhen." Lin Dong shouted with a smile.

Fujima was breathing heavily.

Although Coach Kitano's offensive tactics are gorgeous and efficient, they are extremely demanding on physical strength. He ran down most of the game and had to defend Hisashi Mitsui on the defensive end. He was really tired, and facing He was really at a loss for Xiangbei's closing tactics.

At this time, he felt that Xiangbei was gaining momentum, and the sudden increase in psychological pressure made even his physically stronger body begin to feel tired. He suddenly heard Lin Dong shouting and was stunned.

"Do you understand?" Lin Dong said with a smile: "The way we defended Mitsui Hisashi just now."

Teng Zhen was startled and thought about it carefully while following Lin Dong's explanation.

"The so-called closing the door, of course you can't go in through the door, but the problem is that Shohoku only has a door and no walls. Mitsui Hisaya is not yet able to jump up and shoot seamlessly against the bodies of two pick-and-rollers. They My understanding of what is called closing the door is not deep enough, and my practice is not proficient enough.”

Fujima suddenly realized.

Therefore, as long as you get around Akagi, who is relatively clumsy in his footsteps, you can 'break' their door to a certain extent. You may still not be able to block shots, but you can definitely interfere with Mitsui Hisashi's shooting and lower his shooting percentage.

But... was that something Lin Dong did deliberately for himself to see?

"Actually, it would be better to stop him directly, just before he rushes to the door. After all, Mitsui Hisashi is tired and his speed is not fast. Sakuragi and Akagi don't know how to take the initiative to respond... But I considered that you might also be tired, so I didn't stop him during the demonstration." Lin Dong smiled and said: "I can't let go of Rukawa Kaede on the defensive end. Mitsui Hisashi can only leave it to you. I believe you can handle it. of."

Fujima looked solemn, and then he remembered that Lin Dong's defense of Mitsui Hisashi just now seemed to be a bit slow on purpose, otherwise Mitsui Hisashi might not even be able to enter the so-called 'door'.

It turns out that this was really a deliberate defense to show myself.

If he learns and applies it flexibly, he should be able to lower Mitsui Hisashi's shooting percentage, but now Xiangyang is also... on the offensive end...

"Just give me the ball. I can open up as many points as you can to lock Hisashi Mitsui." Lin Dong said: "I have helped enough. Xiangbei has grown to the limit... It's time to defeat them. ”

Fujima was startled, as was Toru Hanagata next to him.

What's the meaning? Everyone was almost stunned. Was it because Lin Dong was letting things slip?

You old bastard, even though we have won the championship, even though we say that winning or losing is no longer important... everyone is anxious to death!

But you are actually waiting for Xiangbei to reach the limit first? Brother, do you think you are Son Goku waiting for Frieza in 100% form on Namek?

"It's hard to say that we are letting go." Lin Dong said with a smile: "However, not letting go doesn't mean that we are going all out."

"I remember when we played Hainan in the summer, Fujima, you said you wanted to see how I went all out, right?"

"Actually, it's not that I don't want to, but it's because such a competition can't make me really excited. If I just rely on myself to enjoy myself, I won't be able to reach the ultimate level anyway."

Fujima and Toru Hanagata's mouths opened wide.

Do you go all out and still care about your mood? What kind of all-out effort is that? Lin Dongjun, are you serious?

Facing Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede, who are like reincarnations, and facing the fierce momentum of chasing points in Shohoku, you haven't gone all out? !

"But I finally feel high now." A flash of light flashed from Lin Dong's eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised: "This Xiangbei team is qualified!"
