The Jaguar team, which managed to reach the playoffs as the fifth place, ushered in the first round of the matchup with the ninjas, which was also the first playoff trip for Sakuragi and others.

But in the first two games of the Ninja team, the Jaguar players seemed to be a little lost in the orange sea of the ninja home stadium, and the two consecutive defeats put them on the edge of the cliff.

After returning to their home stadium, the Jaguar team regrouped, and they had no way back, they had to fight to the death.

After the opening, the Jaguar team really played hard, Sakuragi on the offensive end gave a violent dunk, and Simmons on the defensive end also sent a big hot pot!!

The Jaguar team's offensive and defensive performance is also the epitome of the whole game, the ninja team was suppressed by the Jaguar team's sudden, long-lasting momentum, and in the end, the Jaguar team defeated the ninja team with a score of 108:95 and defended their first home court, with a big score of 1:2.

But the ninja team still holds two match points, and I believe that the adjusted ninja team in the next game should not be beaten by the Jaguar team again!!

The fourth match between the two sides is on the verge of breaking out!!

"Just like the third game, I'm sure you can do it!! Back to Nagoya, back there!! ”

Before the fourth game, the injured Akagi came to the locker room to encourage his teammates, and after nearly four and a half months of rehabilitation after surgery, Akagi was able to move around freely, but there was still some time to do basketball training!!

"Whoever controls the rebounds can control the whole court!! I'll add one more thing for you!! ”

Sakuragi walked over and patted Akagi on the shoulder and said.

"3, 2, 1, Jaguar!!"

The momentum of the Jaguar team is still undiminished, and after the last game, the players should have given themselves a psychological hint: we can win the game!!

Whether to go back to Nagoya or sleep on vacation, it's a battle tonight.

"Boom Boom~~~"

With the roar of a trademark pump, the fourth game begins!!

After the start of the game, the ninja team really adjusted its tactics, hitting the ball to the inside as much as possible, reducing the outside shots, and changing the previous run-and-bomb tactics to positional warfare, so that the rhythm of the game was greatly slowed down, and the inside advantage of the ninja team was fully reflected.

The Jaguar team can't play the offensive and defensive conversion they like, and the game is very awkward!!

But fortunately, the Jaguar team's shooting rate is not bad, and the score has not been widened, and the gap has always been maintained at 5~6 points, among which Sakuragi's contribution is the most prominent, after the third quarter, Sakuragi has scored 18 points, 12 rebounds, and 4 blocks of beautiful data.

The Jaguars were also only six points behind at 71:77.

The fourth quarter of the decisive battle is about to begin.

"6 points is no problem, everyone gritted their teeth, hit them as soon as they came up, and give the main force as much rest time as possible!!"

Coach Ohki hurriedly laid out his tactics.

"No, coach, I'm still on it, I don't want to rest!!"

Sakuragi said stubbornly.

"Me too, it's the last 12 minutes, I can carry it!!"

Rukawa Kaede then said the same.

"No, you didn't have much rest before, and you have to keep an eye on key people when you stay, and go according to the normal rotation, don't be strong!!"

It seems that Damu rejected the two's request to fight.

"Don't worry, coach, I won't be panting for 48 minutes!!"

Sakuragi walked straight to the court after speaking, and did not listen to Oki's arrangement.

"What do you want to do with this guy!!"

It's too late for Oki to dissuade him, and Sakuragi is ready to serve.

"Cut, this guy really dares to come!!"

Rukawa Kaede didn't follow anymore and sat on the bench obediently.

On the Jaguar team's side, Sakuragi and Simmons are two starters on the court, while the ninja team only has one starter on the field, and Ishii is also recognized as the "endurance king" in the league, but compared with Sakuragi, it is difficult to say who is higher and who is lower.

On the Jaguar side, because Miyagi was not on the court, the task of organizing the attack was handed over to Sakuragi, who stood at the top of the free throw line with the ball, trying to coordinate with his teammates. After all, Sakuragi can't attack desperately as soon as he comes up, these twelve minutes are long and short, and the balanced distribution of physical energy is the key.

Simmons scooped out of the space and ran up to catch the ball.

As if the two were making a pick-and-roll, Simmons received the ball on Sakuragi's left-handed side, dribbled forward with his left hand, and Sakuragi took a few quick steps back at the same time to open up space for Simmons to the three-point line at the top of the arc.

Simmons was caught by a double in the process of rushing forward again, and Simmons immediately jumped up and passed the ball back to Sakuragi.

“nice，pass！！“

Sakuragi was very excited when he received the ball, because in front of him, it was an endless open field, as if he was training!!

Sakuragi didn't make adjustments to the ball, and he made a direct three-point shot from the outside!! "Brush !!"

A beautiful arc, sharp spin, a standard hand type! Achieved a beautiful sound of entering the network!!

"Look, that's the result of Project No Network!!"

Sakuragi, who shot a three-pointer, was very excited, threw his right fist fiercely, and yelled.

"What a ball!! Sakuragi, Sakuragi rarely shot three-pointers before, but if you give him such a big vacancy, then if you don't shoot again, it's really a bit too much!! Three-pointers, rebounds, blocks, Sakuragi in the third grade alone is already so comprehensive, it's really terrifying!! ”

The narrator was amazed.

Sakuragi's three points drove the score to just three remaining.

On the ninja team's side, Ishii came to the front court with the ball, although he was shot a three-pointer, but Ishii still drew tactics step by step, with a mature and experienced point guard like Ishii, the ninja team has the fewest turnovers per game in the league!!

Ishii also played hard with the benches, the Jaguar side defended quite tightly, and the ninja team failed to find a good chance to shoot many times.

"Toot!! Jaguar Backcourt Ball!! ”

In a panic, Ishii dribbled the ball out of the bottom line, and as soon as he said that there were few mistakes, Ishii sent a mistake, but the Jaguars' substitutes did work hard defensively.

"Bang bang bang!! That's it!!! ”

The team's good defense also gave Oki a standing ovation.

The Jaguars' offense was once again driven by Sakuragi standing near the free throw line with the ball, and Sakuragi had a sweet attack last time, this time ,,,

This time, it was Simmons who stepped forward to catch the ball, and again ran in a clockwise direction to catch the ball on Akagi's left hand side.

"There's a gap!!"

The ninja players defending Sakuragi found that there was a certain gap between Sakuragi and Simmons before, so they pounced on it and reached out to steal it.

"Lie to you!!"

Sakuragi took out the ball and pretended to make a pass to Simmons, but also deliberately left a gap, and after seeing the opponent get up and grab, Sakuragi turned on the spot counterclockwise and got rid of the defender.

At this time, it was not only the players who were deceived, but the players who defended Simmons also followed Simmons, who thought he had got the ball, and he didn't know that behind him was Sakuragi Hanamichi, who had really started with the ball.

As if releasing water, the two ninja defenders left Sakuragi with a straight path to the basket.

"Hah~~~!!"

Sakuragi quickly dribbled towards the basket.

The substitute center of the ninja team came up with some hesitation, and when he saw the menacing Sakuragi, he also regretted it a little, but it was too late, and he couldn't dodge.

"Bell, bell, bell~~ brush!!"

"Block foul, goal valid, add a penalty !!"

After all, Sakuragi started at the free throw line, so Sakuragi didn't dunk this ball, but a safe layup, Sakuragi and the opponent's center collided after the two fell to the ground, but Sakuragi still threw the ball steadily in the air, and after two blows, it still scored!!

"What a ball!! It's Sakuragi Hanamichi again.,This time there's a chance to make a 2+1!! If you score a penalty, you'll be equalised!! Sakuragi, this kid is very fierce and savage when he grabs rebounds, but he really has a lot of work!! “

The narrator praised Sakuragi excitedly, but Sakuragi didn't yell, and after standing up, he kept smiling and nodding at the audience behind the basket, "I can do it!" "I guess that's the voiceover!!

"Brush!!"

Sakuragi maintained a good feel throughout the game, and after hitting the free throw, Sakuragi scored 6 points in a row in the fourth quarter and had already chased the score to 77 draws!!
