Chapter 171: The Huge Gap
With fourteen seconds of offensive time and two points behind, the team's offensive idea was clear, that is, relying on the outside three-pointer, and turning defeat into victory in the final moments of the game. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Before the start of this warm-up match, the two teams had already agreed that there would be no overtime, and the final score would be a draw.
For the result of the draw, Xiangbei is acceptable.
In the situation that Ryumasa left the game in the first three minutes, and only the three main players Sakuragi Hanamichi, Rukawa Kaede, and Miyagi Ryota played in the entire second half, Xiangbei, which aimed to train players, was very satisfied with the draw.
On the other hand, the four-team team, which is composed of ace players from each team, cannot accept a draw.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that in this warm-up match, Xiangbei didn't even use forty percent of its strength. In such a situation, they couldn't accept a draw with Xiangbei, who were arrogant.
The purpose of the team is that the Xiangbei players know the roots, Akira Sendo, Ryosuke Kojima, and Kenji Fujima, three teams with long-range shooting ability are closely defended by Xiangbei.
Rukawa Kaede sticks to the anti-immortal Michiaki, Sakuragi Hanamichi mentions the outside line staring at Ryosuke Kojima, Yasuda Yasuharu, Kentaro Ishii joint defense Fuji Shinji, center Tsunoda Satoru is fierce and sits alone under the basket.
What is beneficial to the team is that the shortage of personnel in Xiangbei makes it difficult for it to effectively "close the door" to the team holders.
As the team's leading sharpshooter, Ryosuke Kojima singled Sakuragi Hanamichi with the ball outside the three-point line.
Ryosuke Kojima turned a deaf ear to the trash talk in his ear. But when his feints didn't work, Ryosuke Kojima immediately passed the ball to Akira Sendo. Fourteen seconds of attacking time did not allow him to waste a single thing.
When the basketball came to Xiandaozhang's hands, the pastoral gentleman arrived at Xiandaozhang's side at the same time.
With a lateral movement, Mu Shen leaned on Rukawa Kaede and stuck his position, and there were still three seconds left in the game time.
Pick-and-roll !! Pick-and-roll !!
The last long-range shot, the four-team team used a block and a pick-and-roll, and Akira Sendo got a chance to shoot.
Outside the three-point line, Xiandao Zhangyi adjusted and jumped up to shoot.
Can this long-range shot go in, and the audience's eyes are fixed on the basketball in mid-air.
The basketball rose higher and higher after leaving the hand, and when it was about to reach its highest point, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of it.
"Don't think about !!" Loud shouts echoed through the basketball arena.
In mid-air, Sakuragi Hanamichi stretched his body, and after a loud shout, he slapped the ball down with his right hand and blocked it!!!!!
The basketball was covered, and it was bounced off the ground and was picked up by Rukawa Kaede.
Scanning the timer on the sidelines, I saw that there was only one second left, Rukawa Kaede threw the basketball in his hand in the middle line, and the moment the basketball smashed into the basket, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.
At 108:106, Xiangbei defeated the four-team team and won the final victory of the game.
After the whistle blew, Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede sat down on the ground, and the fierce competition caused their physical strength to collapse.
Looking at the scoreboard on the sidelines, the two glanced at each other with a bright smile on their faces.

After two warm-up matches (with Hainan in the morning and four teams in the afternoon), the power of Xiangbei quickly spread throughout Japan from Kanagawa Prefecture.
The video of the two games soon came to the hands of the national powerhouses such as Sanno Industries.
When the head coach broadcast the video of the two games in front of the players, they knew that last year's national top four --- Xiangbei had undergone a qualitative improvement.

Ryumasa, Akagi Goken, Mitsui Shou, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Rukawa Kaede, these five players are trump cards for any other national powerhouse. Coupled with the four main players of Miyagi Ryota, Kishu Konobu, Yamada Tadada, and Shiozaki Tetsushi and five rotation players such as Satoru Tsunoda, Yasuharu Yasuda, Kentaro Ishii, Tomotoshi Zuoka, and Noboru Kuwata, the strength of Xiangbei is suffocating, including the current No. 1 Sanno Industry in the country.
The coaches and players of Sanno Industry know that once Long Zheng plays, they must be beaten by Xiangbei.
The layman looks at the liveliness, and the insiders look at the doorway! The first three minutes of the second warm-up game had already made them understand the huge gap between themselves and Long Zheng.
