Chapter 161: Scorched
In the first round of the JBA playoffs, only the Kobe Jaguar team and the Nagoya ninja team have not yet been decided.
The Jaguar team is temporarily leading 2:1, and they have already won the match point, as long as they win one more away victory, they will complete their revenge and enter the second round.
In the third game that ended earlier, Kaede Rukawa, who was almost suspended, completed the redemption, and under his 42-point leadership, the Jaguar team escaped, and if the third game was lost, it would be really difficult for the Jaguar team.
Let's see if the Jaguar team will ride the wave to win the series, or the tenacious Nagoya people will bring the game back to Kobe.
At the beginning of the fourth game, the Jaguar team continued the usual tactics of the regular season, opening from the inside first.
So the Jaguar team's first attack was handed over to the captain - Akagi Gangken.
"Poof, poof, poof,,"
Akagi's tough back hit, Odje was a little overwhelmed.
It's already close to the basket!!
Akagi picked up the ball, chaired Ojed, and after turning, a small hook!!
"Brush~~!!"
With such a classic footstep, how could it not be scored~~
Akagi still maintains a good feel.
In fact, it stands to reason that last season in the absence of Akagi, it almost dragged the game into a tie-break, this season with Akagi, the Jaguar team should have more advantages over the ninja team, but this is not the case, if it comes down to one point, it is probably that Akagi has not been fully used in place.
But it's not too late to realize.
Looking at the previous games where the Jaguar team won a big victory, it was Akagi who opened up from the beginning!
I wonder if this game will also go on like this!!
"Everyone's defensive~~!!!Marking people~~"
Akagi quickly ran back to the backfield, shouting at his teammates to defend, Akagi's desire to win is very strong, presumably everyone else is the same, although it will be more enjoyable to beat the opponent at home and complete revenge, but who is willing to take that risk!!
"Pull away~~!!"
The ninja team attacked here, and Ishii did not seek to block and dismantle with Takano as usual, but beckoned his teammates to open up space, could it be that Ishii wanted to fight Miyagi alone??!!
"Yes~~ Don't get tired of a few crooked people getting together, such a concise and clear look is what I like!!"
Miyagi said as he looked at Ishii.
"Ishii really rarely uses singles, unless it's when there's not much time left for the offense, or when he brings a substitute,,, but as soon as the opening comes up this time, Ishii wants to play singles, and I really haven't seen it before~~ Maybe it's the arrangement of Minami Shoudai~~"
Coach Oki analyzes the situation.
At this time, Ishii had almost retreated to the position of the middle line, and the space was quite open!!
Miyagi didn't stick too closely, and although Ishii's speed wasn't the fastest among defenders, Ishii had too many changes,,,,
Sure enough, Ishii took small broken steps and slowly moved forward.
Miyagi didn't press, but beckoned his teammates behind him to mark, and after so many games, Miyagi really knew Ishii too well, and you couldn't guess when he would pass the ball out.
As he spoke, Ishii had already increased his speed, holding the ball in his right hand and swooping forward with a very low center of gravity.
When Ishii accelerated to break through, his long flowing little hair fluttered in the wind, and he was really handsome, looking from afar, it looked like Daoming Temple was playing!!
Because Ishii is still a little higher than Miyagi, So, with Miyagi's center of gravity lower, in this way, Ishii's breakthrough is still relatively easy to defend against Miyagi, and under the constant harassment of Miyagi's lower center of gravity, Ishii's dribbling has some fluctuations and some staggering.
But fortunately, the ball was still in Ishii's control, and by this time Ishii had already reached the free throw line.
If Miyagi, who is shorter than himself, is a little laborious, then the shooting will undoubtedly reveal the advantage of his height~~
Ishii suddenly stopped and jumped up in a backward posture.
Miyagi didn't dare to slack off, and immediately followed up and jumped.
After Ishii jumped up, he raised the ball above his head, but the ball was too much, and it was already in the back of his head~~
"Oops, it's a pass~~!"
Miyagi immediately found out about Ishii's intentions and shouted that he wanted to alert his teammates.
But it seems to be a little late.
When Ishii broke through, small forward Hirano was ready to cut into the air.
By the time Ishii made the move, Hirano had already cut to the basket.
And Rukawa Kaede, who was defending Hirano, seemed to be distracted.
As Miyagi expected, Ishii made a fake pass and smashed the ball directly into Hirano's arms.
At this time, Hirano had already increased his speed, and Akagi didn't dare to block rashly, and watched Hirano directly catch the ball and jump to complete a two-handed slam dunk!!
This is the most efficient offense in the whole JBA, every player has a good offensive awareness, and the tacit understanding of the players is quite high!
"Hirano doesn't have the ability to shoot outside, his biggest characteristic is that he likes to cut the basket in the air, I've said it before~~ Concentrate!!"
Akagi ran to the front court and said to Rukawa Kaede, who was beside him.
At this time, Akagi is like a coach on the field, much like Kenji Fujima of the Flying Waves.
The Jaguar team attacked, and the ball came to Akagi again.
Ojed lowered his center of gravity as much as possible, pressed against Akagi's waist, and did not let Akagi get closer to the basket, perhaps the ninja team's analysis of Akagi was to let him get farther and farther away from the basket, and his threat would become smaller and smaller.
After being held up by Odje at the waist, Akagi's movements were indeed greatly restricted, and it was very difficult to turn around and advance.
But Akagi didn't split the ball again, and Akagi looked confident that he would play again.
But Akagi never managed to squeeze into the paint area, and there was not much time to attack!!
"Hmph, you want to prevent me?!It's far away!!"
Akagi was still very far away from the penalty area, forced to turn around, and did not carry Aojiede, but jumped backwards, dodged Aojiede's top position, and reluctantly completed a small backward shot~~!!
This distance can be said to be a mid-range jumper!!
"Okay, Ojede!!That's it, forcing Akagi to stay away from the penalty area, so that Akagi will have no room to play~~ Because Akagi can't shoot from mid-range at all!!"
Coach Nan Shoudai still touched his bald head and said confidently.
"Da, brush~~!!"
Hit the board!!
However, it seems that it disappointed Coach Minami~~
"What~~, it's a board, I've never seen Akagi attack like this before~~ How can it be?,It must be just luck!!"
Coach Minami is indeed a stubborn old man, even if Akagi scored this goal with an element of luck, but it has to be said that the farther Akagi is away from the penalty area, the less dangerous it is.
After the opening, Akagi hit both shots, and the first point of the Jaguar team's key to victory: the inside line is opened, and it has been achieved, and then it depends on the play of the outside players.
The outside players on the Jaguar side haven't been given a chance to play yet, and the ninjas have taken the lead.
It's Ishii's one-on-one breakthrough again, and it's another fake facsimile throw after the jump, but this time Ishii stealthily passes the ball backwards to Rihei Takeuchi.
Wu Nei shot directly with three points in the top arc, and wore Yang in 100 steps~~!!
The ninja team's offense was also smooth, and the two consecutive attacks were all assists from Ishii, the commander on the field.
The first point of the ninja team's key to victory: Ishii revitalized the whole team, and it was also achieved.
It looks like this game is going to be quite scorching.
25:25 draw, the end of the first quarter.
