Chapter 169: Suddenly!

The fourth game of the first round of the playoffs between the Jaguar team and the ninja team has reached the final stage.

With 2.6 seconds left before the end, the Ninja team playing at home led 92-90.

Jaguar Sideline Ball.

In 2.6 seconds, there is little chance of hitting the ball to the inside, and it is easy to make mistakes, once you make a mistake, then the Jaguar team can only "grab five" in Kobe!!

Before this, the Jaguar team's outside hand was very average, Miyagi's three-point shot was 1 of 4, Mitsui shot 2 of 6, Rukawa Kaede shot 3 of 7, and Sakuragi missed all 3 shots. The rest of the substitutes were also mediocre.

It can be said that if you choose to shoot outside, you are gambling!!

But only 2.6 seconds is no choice for the Jaguar team, as long as there is a chance, they have to shoot, and then make a worst-case scenario in their hearts - even if we lose, we can still go back to the home court to "tie five"!!

After the kick-off, Rukawa Kaede received the ball almost in the middle line, and seeing that Takenuchi was already waiting for him at his feet, Rukawa Kaede made a decisive choice.

In the air, the ball was transferred to the top arc, and Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was two steps away from the three-point line and was unguarded.

Last time Sakura-lingering line, Sakuragi was also an open three-pointer, but he didn't shoot.

This time, it is still in the case of pressing the whistle, can Sakuragi complete the redemption and shoot this more difficult ultra-long three-point strike to kill the opponent and complete revenge??!!

Let the ball fly towards the basket speaks for itself!

Akagi and Ojed also gave up their defenses and watched as the ball flew towards the basket.

"Bell~Bell~Bell~Bell~Bell~"

Skin, ball, fly, in! basket! basket!

In the end, even luck chose Jaguar, the ball bounced around in the basket and didn't come out again!!

Although there is no pleasant sound of brushing the net, however, this does not hinder the effectiveness of this ball!!

"Sakuragi Hanamichi three-point lore kill the ninja team ~~~!!!"

If someone is listening to the live broadcast of the game on the radio, then this sentence of commentary should be remembered forever!!

Sakuragi flower road.

This player who has been questioned, this player who was once considered a bad boy, this player who was once considered unfit to play basketball, this player who once almost said goodbye to basketball, after shooting this three-pointer, helped a city and won the victory.

It was the first shot Sakuragi Hanamichi shot, and it was probably the most important three-pointer of Sakuragi Hanamichi's career.

Sakuragi was stunned after the shot, like everyone in the audience, couldn't believe the numbers on the score board!!

Until~~~

"Sakuragi~~!! hahaha!!"

It wasn't until Miyagi and Mitsui ran towards Sakuragi together that Sakuragi finally reacted and did something he did.

"Entered!! entered!!! hmmmmmmmm!!mm

Sakuragi clenched his fists and leaned back, looking up at the sky above the arena, wantonly catharsis.

"You stinky boy~~!!"

Even Akagi couldn't help but jump up and jump into the crowd surrounding Sakuragi!!

"This idiot,,, really scares me to death~~!!"

Rukawa Kaede did not jump into the crowd, but lay on the floor, comfortably feeling the tears of victory,,,

"Haha~~!!Oh~~!!

In the outdoor fan plaza in Kobe, everyone cheered as if the Jaguar team had won the championship!!

Back at the home of the ninja team, the referee finally looked back at Sakuragi's killer goal several times, and after making sure that there was no timeout, it was finally counted!!

93:92。

The score was forever fixed on these two numbers.

This is the end of the Ninjas' season for the season.

And the Jaguar team also avenged last year's revenge and took a solid step towards the goal of the championship.

After the crazy celebration of the Jaguar team, Ishii and others also came to congratulate them very graciously.

"You're already top-notch, lead the team on, I'll be waiting for you in the summer!!Rukawa Kaede!!"

Ishii and Rukawa Kaede said after hugging each other.

"Summer??"

Rukawa Kaede asked, but Ishii didn't explain too much and turned to say goodbye to the other team members.

"You guy, you can really be fooled~~"

Takano found Sakuragi and teased.

"Hmph, there's not much to cover, just this one ball is enough!!"

Sakuragi replied.

In this way, the first round of the battle between the Jaguar team and the ninja team ended with Sakuragi Hanamichi's three-point kill, although it did not hit the tie-break, but the first four games, especially the fourth, were enough to go down in history, and the three-point kill was promoted, what a blood-pumping drama.

Sakuragi's decision is also something that many players dream of!!

Next, the Jaguar team will challenge the Sendai Wanderers, the stronger favorite led by Sendo, in the semi-finals.

"Next, please follow our camera and listen to what kind of mood Sakuragi Hanamichi shot three points in the previous game!!"

NHK TV reporters came to the Jaguar team's locker room immediately after the game, ready to interview tonight's Jaguar team's savior, Sakuragi Hanamichi.

"Huh??Excuse me, where is Sakuragi Hanamichi??"

But when the reporter entered the locker room, he found that not only did he not see Sakuragi, but the other main players did not see it, and Coach Oki was not in the locker room.

"Hey, Rukawa Kaede, what about Sakuragi??Why are there so many people missing??"

When the reporter turned around and was about to leave, he happened to see Rukawa Kaede walking in from outside the house, so he asked.

"Oh, they're going to be Sakuragi again~~"

Rukawa Kaede said.

"Old,,Fault,,??"

The reporter was confused.

Subsequently, the reporter learned that Sakuragi was indeed sent to the hospital after returning to the locker room.

After that, a large number of media also rushed to hear the news, and everyone wanted to find out.

What the hell is going on with this "old problem"!!

"How's it going, doctor??!!"

Coach Oki saw the doctor who had entered Sakuragi's clinic come out and immediately asked eagerly.

"There should be no problem, after learning about some of his previous medical history, it is probably a recurrence of an old injury in the waist, considering the suddenness of this onset, further examination is needed to confirm the diagnosis!!"

As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Kawaguchi called.

I asked about Sakuragi.

Coach Oki then told Kawaguchi the ins and outs of the whole thing.

It turned out that not long after the game, Sakuragi and the others returned to the locker room, and when Sakuragi suddenly got up on the seat, he suddenly felt a piercing pain in his back and waist.

After that, Sakuragi lost his instincts in pain, and was sent to the nearest hospital by his teammates.

In the blink of an eye, it was the next morning.

"I'm fine??!!"

After Sakuragi underwent various examinations, he anxiously asked the doctor.

Sakuragi was lying on the hospital bed, looking at the mood was nothing unusual, but his expression was still quite nervous!!

"The specific result of this ,,, will have to wait until the afternoon, be patient!!"

The doctor hesitated for a moment and said.

Fortunately, there are still five days to go before the semi-finals, and even if there is a sudden situation, there is still time to deal with it.

"Sakuragi, I'd like to talk to you!!"

When it was time for lunch, Oki came to Sakuragi's hospital room, sat on the edge of the bed and said.

"What's the matter, coach, is it because of that three-point shot, you want to praise me!!"

Although Sakuragi is in the hospital, he seems to be in a good mood.

"Of course I want to praise you, but before I praise you, I want to ask you, do you remember our goal before the start of the season??"
