Chapter 351: Rampage, Simmons~!!
Since Sakuragi Hanamichi came into contact with basketball, there are not many players who can create a threat to Sakuragi and always be in a state of suppression, and the most important thing is the position of power forward. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Ah Fu in high school is counted as one, but as Sakuragi gradually develops offensive ability, Ah Fu, who has a single performance, cannot be regarded as Sakuragi's opponent.
Mu Shenyi is absolutely, although Sakuragi has never said anything like "surpassing Amu" and "defeating Amu", but in his heart, Sakuragi should admire Amu's ability, but he just doesn't want to say it.
And the ninja team's big forward Takano Thunder is definitely the most difficult opponent Sakuragi Hanamichi has encountered since entering the professional league.
In the first few seasons of Sakuragi's entry into the league, he was indeed at a disadvantage compared to Takano in terms of experience and ability, but in recent seasons, especially after the playoffs against the ninjas, Takano Thunder and Sakuragi Hanamichi can be said to be equal opponents.
I believe that the re-encounter between the two people in this year's finals will determine who is the stronger one.
However, judging from the situation after the opening of the first game, the two are still evenly matched.
Here Takano singled Sakuragi again.
"Knock knock~!!"
The sound of two people's muscles colliding came and went.
Takano has come to the penalty area, because Odjed is ready to grab a rebound in the penalty area, so if Takano doesn't make a shot again, it looks like he will attack for three seconds.
"Takano, pay attention for three seconds~!!"
Ishii also shouted a reminder from the outside.
Takano makes a hook gesture and throws the ball.
"It's too easy to think about~!!"
Sakuragi watched the moment the ball was shot, shouted, jumped directly on the spot, and jumped towards the ball.
Although Sakuragi didn't cover the ball completely, the tips of Sakuragi's long arms still touched the ball.
After this shot was interfered with by Sakuragi, the ball quickly lost its strength and fell early due to gravity.
Sakuragi successfully defended Takano down~!!
Watanabe Takasato, who was in the back, withstood Odjed and took the rebound.
After the opening, Takano missed for the first time.
Watanabe gave the ball to nearby Slyer, and as he gradually integrated into the team, Slyer was able to make occasional cameos at point guard.
Looking at it this way, today's Fuji Zhen is simply too happy, compared with the situation of "being a father and a mother" in previous seasons, Fuji Zhen is simply much easier.
Slyer came to the half-time and gave it to Simmons.
The Waves are gradually going to take advantage of their wide range of offensive points.
The pressure on Takenai to defend Simmons is also quite high.
Simmons used his huge physical advantage to crush Takeuchi, and in a few seconds, Simmons came to a position close to the inside.
Although the defense of the ninja team is not the top in the league, it still has the ability to immediately assist in such a situation.
Takano rushed over at once.
However, Simmons has already made a shooting move.
βwhat~??!!β
Just as Simmons jumped up and was about to shoot, he suddenly felt a slight pain in the joint of his right arm.
The pain caused Simmons to give up the shot and instead give the ball to Sakuragi, who had already rushed to the basket.
"Oh~??Is this a match~??But Simmons can obviously make a stable shot~!!Is the Waves ready to pass the ball all the way to the basket like this~??!!"
The commentary is also quite puzzled and asked.
Sakuragi definitely didn't expect Simmons to pass the ball, although he subconsciously received the ball, but he had come to a negative angle, and there was no room for a shot at all.
Takano also quickly returned to the inside line, plus Ojed's upper bread clip, and Ishii's harassment below.
Sakuragi had a hard time handling the ball.
"Damn, ah~!!"
Sakuragi saw that he was immediately forced out of the bottom line, and there was no route for passing, so he could only be strong~!!
However, even though Sakuragi has the strength of a tiger, it is still too difficult to break through the barrier between Takano and Ojiede~~
"Smack~!!"
Takano didn't jump much at all, and directly pressed Sakuragi's layup on the rebound.
Then Odjed, who was next to him, controlled the rebound.
"Yay~!!"
The JAL Center once again erupted into a huge wave, in their eyes, Sakuragi Hanamichi, the team that had once killed him, the fans really "hated it"~!!
Seeing Sakuragi being exposed by Takano, the fans are also quite relieved~!!
"Hmph, what a guy who can't do it himself~!!"
Takano said domineeringly to Sakuragi, who was back on guard.
This time, Takano has the right to be presumptuous.
Takano and Sakuragi really have a tacit understanding, Takano didn't score, and Sakuragi didn't score.
This "tooth for tooth" approach between the two sides is really special.
In the following games, the two sides also went back and forth, and it can be said that both sides played their greatest advantages.
On the ninja team's side, it's attacking, attacking, and attacking, although Takano lost a lot of scoring opportunities against Sakuragi, but the outside Takeuchi and Tamaki felt pretty good.
In most cases, because the average height of the players of the Flying Wave team is higher than that of the Ninja team, the Flying Wave team is the one who takes the initiative.
Half time, 54:49.
The ninja team playing at home is temporarily ahead.
However, the difference of 5 points is not a problem for the Flying Waves.
The second half is about to start soon.
"Are you okay~??"
Before the game, Coach Moriyama called an interpreter to Simmons.
Perhaps Moriyama noticed that Simmons' shot was changed to a pass at the beginning of the game, which was definitely not his intention.
"It's okay, no problem~!!;"
Simmons said as he touched the joint of his right elbow with his left hand.
"That's good, if there is any adverse reaction, you must tell me or the team doctor~!!"
Moriyama reminded again.
Simmons is absolutely indispensable to the Flying Waves, and the offense does not need to be said, mainly outside aid who can defend seriously, and there are really not many.
After the start of the second half, Fujima strengthened his breakthrough, and the most important thing was to create more offensive opportunities for his teammates.
While speaking, Fujima used the "roller coaster" to get rid of Tamaki's defense and distributed the ball to Simmons on the outside.
After Simmons received the ball, he didn't hesitate to shoot directly from three-point shots.
Takeuchi really didn't expect Simmons to be so decisive.
"Brush~!!"
The ball swept the Nets upside down.
After that, Simmons found many good opportunities and hit three points in quick succession.
Simmons suddenly broke out, the outside three-point is like a divine help, how to shoot, how to have ~!!
In fact, Simmons' outside shooting rate in the regular season was 34.6%, which is not a high result, so for the defense, he will definitely not be treated as a three-point shooter.
But when he suddenly gets up, you will think that he is a stroke of genius, but when he hits 5 consecutive shots and scores 15 points in a row, it may be too late to pay attention to it.
Coach Minami Shoudai insisted on not encompassing Simmons, he didn't believe that Simmons could keep going, and this stubborn old man paid a huge price for his unbelieving style.
In the third quarter of the game, the Flying Waves took a double-digit lead in the way of the ninjas.
The ninja team was beaten to the ground by Simmons, who suddenly "went berserk". (To be continued.) )
