Chapter 86 Second Half

"Sanno, change!" Coach Domoto took the lead to make a change, replacing Satoshi Ichinokura with Minoru Matsumoto. Satoshi Ichinokura was only 171 in height, and Mitsui, who was 184 in defense, was really struggling. Kawata is substituted.

"Wow, he's so tall!" Ogawada, who is 210 tall, caused the audience to exclaim, and the coach of Meitomo in the stands said to Mori Shigehiro, "Ahiro, he may be the only one taller than you in this competition! "

"Sakuragi, this guy is a complete novice. He can only turn around and shoot with one move. It is enough for you to withstand him!" Shen Long called Sakuragi and said, "His ability to hold the ball is very average, and he can let other players come over. Double team, in this game you not only need to do a good job in rebounding and defense, but also help Xiangbei get points."

"Understood, old man." Yingmu Huadao panted heavily. This match made him feel unprecedentedly difficult, but it also inspired his fighting spirit.

Ogawada’s strength surprised Sakuragi Hanamichi. The first defense was easily squeezed by the opponent to score a shot. However, Sakuragi recovered quickly and immediately used fake moves on the offensive end to shake Okawada away and enter the inside line. Kawada Masashi rushed over To supplement the defense, Sakuragi passed the ball to Akagi, and Akagi scored a dunk.

"What! He actually resisted, it's a monster!" In the transition of offense and defense, this time Xiaohetian couldn't hold up the hard-working Sakuragi Hanadao. Seeing that the 189-centimeter, 85-kilogram Sakuragi firmly withstood the 210 For Xiaohetian, who weighs 130 centimeters and weighs 130 kilograms, all the players and spectators were stunned and couldn't believe their eyes.

No, there was one more person awake. Taking advantage of Okawada's stunned skill, Rukawa quickly rushed to the basket to steal the ball, and took the opportunity to launch a fast break. Unfortunately, his speed still couldn't catch up with Zebei, and he rushed all the way to the basket without finding a chance. , Rukawa Feng had to forcefully throw the ball to the backboard.

"It's impossible to score like this." Zebei smiled, but he was surprised to find that there was a smile on the corner of Rukawa Feng's mouth. As soon as Zebei landed, he heard a loud roar from behind, and a red figure descended from the sky, grabbing The rebounded basketball made a dunk and scored. Looking back, it was Sakuragi Hanamichi. Rukawa Kaede is not the only one with excellent speed in Xiangbei.

In the first half, Mitsui Shou made a three-pointer, and in the second half, Sakuragi Hanamichi opened the situation inside, allowing Shohoku to end the first half with a 42-34 lead.

However, neither the Shanwang players nor the audience in the stands took this point difference to heart, "It is already very good that Xiangbei can achieve this step, and in the second half when Shanwang uses the full-court press, he will still take it. to victory."

"Then, let's use five minutes to establish a double-digit lead!" Coach Domoto finished speaking and looked at Xiangbei's coaching bench. Coach Anxi, will you let us achieve this goal?

"Everyone did a great job, but the game has just begun. In the second half, Sanwang will definitely use a full-court press. Miyagi, are you ready? Remember, you only need to hold on for five minutes; full-court press The requirements for physical strength are very strict, even the Mountain King can only last for five minutes, and their previous schedule is more difficult than ours.” They have played against Hainan, Aihe, two semi-final teams, plus a top-eight team, The physical exertion on the mountain king is not light.

As for Xiangbei, the first few games were full of fish, and Luoan was a little stronger in the last game. The physical reserves of Xiangbei players are not as good as Shanwang, but their consumption is much less than them.

"Coach, I've been preparing for this match for more than a month!" Miyagi clenched his fists, thinking of the days when he was double-teamed by Mitsui Hisashi and Rukawa Kaede.

The game restarted, and the double-teaming of Fukatsu and Zebei was much stronger than that of Mitsui and Rukawa Kaede. Miyagi failed to break through for the first time, and was intercepted by Zebei to score two points. The same was true for the second time, in less than half a minute , the point difference is only four points.

"Have you seen it? This is the strength of the mountain king!" The fans of the mountain king in the stands were very excited.

"Is Xiangbei going to lose too?" Amu, Yuzhu, Zhu Xingda and others were depressed.

"You guys underestimate me, Miyagi Ryota, who is so flashy!" Miyagi slapped his face hard twice to calm himself down, caught the ball, lowered his body, and abruptly got out of the gap between Fukatsu and Zebei.

"I knew it, I knew Miyagi was not that easy to deal with!" Mu Shenyi clenched his fists after suffering from Miyagi.

Sanno retreated quickly, and when Miyagi took the ball to the frontcourt, five defenders were already in position, Fukatsu still blocked him, and Zebei continued to mark Rukawa Kaede.

"There's only one person left, how easy it is!" Miyagi kept on doing nothing, and decisively broke through Fukatsu's defense and entered the inside line. Okawada flew over to defend, but Miyagi's throw was too fast Then, the basketball passed over Okawata's fingertips and fell into the basket, and the point difference returned to six points.

"It's okay, let's come again." Zebei decisively used singles to get back two points, and then continued to double-team Miyagi with Fukatsu.

Rukawa Kaede pretended to catch the ball to attract Zebei's attention, Miyagi succeeded in breaking through again, and Sanno's full-court pressing was broken by Shohoku.

Seeing that this trick didn't work, the offensive combination of Zebei and Matsumoto Minoru began to show their power, and Rukawa Kaede and Mitsui couldn't stop them at all; since they can't defend, let's win on the offensive end!

Akagi repeatedly mentioned the pick-and-roll for Rukawa Kaede and Mitsui Toshi from the outside line. Rukawa Kaede used the pick-and-roll to score inside and scored. , the two sides fell into a stalemate, Xiangbei tenaciously held the lead, and the point difference has been hovering between 4 and 6 points.

Okawada took the initiative to switch to Sakuragi, and Akagi formed an advantage over Okawada. Although Okawada has height and weight, his inside skills are far from comparable to Akagi. Okawada ran back and forth between Akagi and Sakuragi, and his physical strength was exhausted quickly. .

In the last five minutes of the second half, Okawada's take-off speed and height were far inferior to those at the beginning of the game, but Sakuragi Hanamichi was still vigorous. He leaned against Okawada under the basket, caught the ball and made two quick thrusts. Turning around and shooting a jump shot, Okawada tried his best to jump up, his fingertips were still far away from the basketball, and he could only watch the basketball hit the net.

Looking back, Sakuragi sensed Zebei's breakthrough route with his beast-like intuition, causing Zebei's offensive foul, and then grabbed an offensive rebound in the frontcourt and passed it to Mitsui on the outside. There was still more than one meter away from the dividing line, so he hesitated for a while and did not step forward to press.

"Hehe, this place is also within my shooting range!" Mitsui Shou remembered what Shen Long told him back then, and made a decisive shot, and Matsumoto Minoru began to collapse.
