Chapter 123: Mori Shigekuan's End

"Hmm...... I think it's because of that fat man, he really put a lot of pressure on Sakuragi, so Sakuragi can't get out of the game. Yohei thought for a while and said, and after listening to Yohei's words, several people didn't bother Sakuragi anymore.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Xiangbei did not send Kanoda, and Coach Anzai arranged an outside substitute to appear. The famous friends still used the lineup of the first half, and Shinichi Kudo still sat on the bench to reflect.

Sakuragi was the first to come out of the event, and he was not very clear about Coach Anzai's arrangement. It's just to give Tsunoda more time to rest and defend Mori Shigekuan by himself. The team seemed to be very confident, and Sakuragi didn't care about the change in personnel.

Xiangbei attacked first, Mingpeng had already set up a defensive formation, and Miyagi was not in a hurry to dribble the ball through the half. Sakuragi still stood on the high post, and as long as Mori Shigekuan refused to come out, he would use the misposition to score. Miyagi passed the ball to Sakuragi, but it was the big forward who came up to defend Sakuragi, and Sakuragi used his height to score frequently in the first half, which made Mingpeng also afraid to change his defensive strategy.

The big forward of the famous friend is also very tall, and his height is above Sakuragi. Sakuragi didn't force it and passed the ball back to Miyagi, who passed it over and transferred the ball to Kaede Rukawa on the other side. Sakuragi's idea is that in the face of a team with an overwhelming advantage on the inside like Mingpeng, the only way to win is to win by skill, choose the easiest way to score, and put all the physical strength on the defensive end.

As soon as Rukawa Kaede received the ball, Yasuda immediately walked over to help Rukawa Kaede set up cover. Rukawa Kaede did not choose to break through quickly with the ball, but carried the ball slowly. Swapped to Yasuda's side of the defender. Rukawa Kaede was one of the main scoring points in Xiangbei in the first half, and Yasuda's defenders did not dare to defend at all, so they decisively chose to change defenses.

Rukawa Kaede didn't look like he was in a hurry to attack at all. After walking a few steps sideways with the ball, he leaned on the defenders and began to bully people nakedly. The height difference between the two people is quite large, and Rukawa Kaede is body strength is not losing, pushing the defender to approach the basket, making the defender grinning and insisting.

Rukawa Kaede's original defender, staying by Yasuda's side, but always paying attention to Rukawa Kaede's actions. Rukawa Kaede's face is facing the bottom line. After some weighing, the small forward suddenly ran towards Rukawa Kaede. His action was very sudden, and the players in Xiangbei didn't have time to remind him.

The front foot of the famous small forward just got behind Kaede Rukawa. The joy of success in his heart just surged, and Rukawa Kaede passed the ball behind him with a backhand almost at the same time. The ball bounced off the floor and was ready to pass to Yasuda's hands. At this time, it was too late for the small forward of the famous friend to turn back to defend Yasuda. He was pretty sure that Rukawa Kaede definitely didn't look back just now. And he didn't hear anyone else's reminder, he rushed over so suddenly, how did Rukawa Kaede find out, he really couldn't figure it out.

Yasuda prepared very calmly, and as usual practice, jumped up and threw the ball out. The posture is standard, the arc is perfect, and the ball falls steadily into the basket. Yasuda scored the first goal of the second half for Xiangbei.

The attack of Xiangbei was successful, and Mingpeng immediately organized a counterattack. Most of Xiangbei's players retreated to the half-court defense. Only the substitutes who had just come on in the second half were very active in interfering with the opponent's serve. One person wanted to make Mingpeng unable to send the ball, which made Mingpeng's players all look at him and laugh, and shook to the left and sent the ball to his teammates on the right.

This substitute player in Xiangbei, seeing that his famous friend sent out the ball, turned around and ran to Mori Chongkuan, and gave Mori Chongkuan a bear hug from behind. At first, Mori Chongkuan thought it was a joke by the team members, but when he turned his head to look at it, he realized that Lu Dao was a member of the team from Xiangbei. The referee's whistle sounded in time, and the players in Xiangbei immediately let go of their hands. I was still a little afraid of the behemoth in front of me, and smiled at Mori Chongkuan, who looked at the player in Xiangbei inexplicably, wondering if he forgot to take his medicine before playing.

"The referee gave him T, and my players didn't take the ball, isn't this finding fault?" Mingpeng's coach stood up and walked to the sidelines, constantly putting pressure on the referee.

The referee blew the whistle and thought about it, this situation is indeed not very common, and at the end of the day, he still gave an ordinary foul. "Although the opponent fouled a non-player, there was no malicious personal attack." After the penalty was made, the referee also explained to Coach Mingpeng and explained the basis for his blowing.

The players of the famous friends all felt very strange, and kept looking at the Xiangbei players who had just fouled, and the substitutes in Xiangbei were a little embarrassed. The famous friend went to send a throw-in, and as soon as the ball was sent to the field, one of the substitutes in Xiangbei hugged Mori Chongkuan. The crowd was in an uproar, it was too much of a delay for them to watch the game. There were many people shouting at the field, saying that the player from Xiangbei was abnormal, and asked him to go to the hospital for treatment immediately.

The referee had already blown the penalty once, and this time he did not hesitate and decisively gave a foul. At the same time, he turned his head and looked at Coach Anzai, who was sitting on the bench in Xiangbei, thinking that in the previous games of blowing famous friends, the opponent would also use foul tactics, but they were all deliberately beaten when Mori Shigekuan was attacking with the ball. This kind of situation of fouling without touching the ball is the first time I have seen it today, I don't know what the coach of Xiangbei thinks about it.

"Anxi's predecessors are really hidden, and this is also a way." Shigeichi Taoka, unlike the rest of the spectators, was excited.

As long as the famous friend sent the ball out, Xiangbei decisively fouled Mori Chongkuan until the number of fouls reached the point of free throws. Mori Chongkuan simply stood in place, waiting to be fouled by the Xiangbei players. With my height and weight, it would be in vain to try to run.

Standing at the free throw line, Mori Shigekuan hit the first free throw, and the second ball bounced out of the frame. Sakuragi took the lead and blocked the famous big forward, and Rukawa Kaede easily picked up the rebound. Before he landed, Rukawa Kaede passed the ball to Miyagi. Xiangbei is obviously very well prepared, but famous friends are not in vain.

The two outside players waited by Miyagi's side early, just worried that after Xiangbei won the rebound, he would launch a quick counterattack. Miyagi didn't reach out to catch the ball from Kaede Rukawa, but picked it up with one hand, and the ball flew over the heads of the two famous friends. The ball flew over, and the people of Miyagi also jumped ~ sideways and squeezed between the two famous friends. Waiting for the two defenders of the famous friend to turn around, Miyagi had already taken the ball and rode into the dust, and the two of them chased a few steps and gave up, Miyagi's speed was too fast, and there was no way to do it except watch Miyagi score a layup.

"Xiangbei has earned, if you let Sen Chongkuan enter the inside line, the chance of preventing it is not great, and letting him shoot free throws is the best choice." When Shigeru Taoka watched the game in Xiangbei, he paid more attention to Coach Anzai's response to the situation on the field, and he felt that he had learned another trick.

Xiangbei seemed to be unforgiving, and Xiangbei, who took advantage, began to foul Mori Chongkuan without the ball. Punish one, and then replace another player to continue, and the score of Xiangbei gradually has a tendency to pull away. Mori Shigehiro also became more and more impatient, showing his impatience, and his free throws began to become more and more erratic.

Mingpeng's coach saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, and it was the best choice to replace Mori Chongkuan at this time. It's just that if there is no Mori Shigekuan, Xiangbei will still have an advantage without fouling, and when Coach Mingpeng was in a dilemma, Kudo Shinichi stood up and walked to the coach's side.

"Coach I want the championship, let me play!" In the battle between Kudo Shinichi and the coach, he finally couldn't hold his breath and walked to the coach's side to show his attitude.

"It's okay to play, but I have a request." Mingpeng's coach was very happy in his heart, but his face was not revealed. "I don't limit your offense, but I don't allow you to dribble, not at all." After speaking, the coach of the famous friend looked at Kudo Shinichi expectantly.

"Good!" Kudo Shinichi nodded, indicating that he accepted the conditions offered by the coach. Immediately, the famous friend coach replaced Mori Shizukuan with Shinichi Modo, and no longer gave Xiangbei a chance to foul Mori Shigekuan without the ball.

"Sure enough, I can't help it, replace Mori Shigekuan, and let Kudo Shinichi play one-on-one with Rukawa Kaede? Mingpeng must have lost this time. Shigeichi Kooka looked at the changes in the field and asserted quite confidently.

Kudo Shinichi agreed very simply, and only after he got on the field did he begin to savor the coach's request. Don't dribble to attack? Coach Anzai and Mingpeng made adjustments at the same time, and Mori Shigekuan went off the field~ Coach Anzai replaced Tsunoda, who had been fully rested, to strengthen the inside line.

No one went to foul Mingpeng without the ball anymore, and Mingpeng finally dribbled the ball smoothly through the half. As soon as he arrived in the frontcourt, the point guard habitually passed to Kudo Shinichi, in his eyes, Kudo Shinichi was a basketball black hole, and the ball passed to him definitely without return. Kudo Shinichi faced Rukawa Kaede again, it can be said that he was extraordinarily red, and the idea of a duel with Rukawa Kaede in his heart began to stir again, but because the coach had a word first, he could only forcibly hold back. Reluctantly, he passes the ball back to his point guard, and then walks over to cover the point guard. If you don't dribble, you'll only have to catch and shoot, and Kudo Shinichi already understands what the coach means.

Although Mingpeng's defender was very surprised, Kudo Shinichi's meaning was obvious, and he didn't think much about it, and decisively used Kudo Shinichi's cover to get rid of Miyagi's follower and cut inside. Rukawa Kaede and Miyagi have a tacit understanding, and they staggered and didn't change their guards.

The famous point guard who walked to the inside faced the tall Sakuragi Hanamichi under the basket, and did not rush to attack head-on, but kept looking around for opportunities to pass. After covering his teammates, Kudo Shinichi seemed a little at a loss, he always took the initiative to attack with the ball in his hand, and he really didn't know what to do without the ball.
