"No problem, I've almost figured out his routine, compared to defending Sakuragi, I feel like I can defend Oda, but I'll have to give me some time to get used to it." Tsunoda replied with confidence.

In the following games, Oda and Sakuragi were the main attack points of their respective teams, and the two of them competed at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. Oda gradually began to struggle on the offensive end, Tsunoda was inferior in height but had a lot of strength, and the defense was becoming more and more aggressive, which made Oda quite physically demanding every time he attacked. On the other hand, Sakuragi Hanamichi made Oda also nerve-wracking on the defensive end, no matter what defensive strategy Oda adopted, Sakuragi always had a way to deal with it, and it seemed extremely relaxed from beginning to end, and there was no sense of difficulty.

Takeshiro's players also began to notice this, and after Miyagi passed the ball to Sakuragi again, Takesok's defenders resolutely shrank to the inside and defended Sakuragi. Sakuragi appeared calm, first lifting the ball high to give the opposing defender no chance, and then waiting for the opponent to rush close enough to him before throwing the ball back to Miyagi.

After Miyagi received the ball, he put on a shooting pose, and the Takeshi team member, who had just gone to wrap Sakuragi, desperately pounced. The bag clamp is a kind of last resort defense, the inevitable leakage, and the only way to remedy it is to consume physical strength. Miyagi's body pulled his feet up but did not leave the ground, the opponent rushed out with all his strength, Miyagi flashed lightly, dribbling to the inside.

Oda was blocked by Sakuragi, and could only watch as Miyagi Nagamu drove in. After adjusting his pace, Miyagi jumped up three steps and jumped high to score two points again with a layup ahead of the opponent who made up for the block.

Wu Yuan applied for a timeout, although the score was still deadlocked. But the hidden dangers are quite obvious. "Try to reduce Oda's individual strong hits, everyone should participate in the attack, and add more breakthrough points." Oda's consumption is great. Coach Wu Yuan looked at his eyes and instructed his own guard line.

"Wuyuan is very similar to Xiangbei in previous years, the center is good, but it is a little isolated, and it should not be a big problem for Xiangbei to win." Xiandao took the opportunity of the pause to stretch and give his opinion.

Coach Anzay was also at the timeout. Asking Miyagi to reduce Sakuragi's ball-holding attack, the opponents behind will be stronger and stronger, and Coach Anzai does not want Sakuragi to consume too much in the match with Takesoen.

After the restart. Both sides have clearly changed their style of play on the offensive end. At this time, the difference in the depth of the lineup is becoming more and more obvious, Xiangbei is still frequently successful, while the success rate of Wuyuan's attack is declining. The score has a tendency to pull away, and it is a last resort. Wu Yuan had to go back to the attack strategy of beating Oda to the death.

The first half was coming to an end. Xiangbei led Wuyuan by nine points and held the last offensive possession. After Coach Anzai's arrangement, Miyagi no longer passed the ball to Sakuragi singles, but more let Sakuragi set up a cover for himself, burst into the interior by himself, and if he encountered a bag clip, he would pass back to Sakuragi for shooting. Rukawa Kaede was the main point of attack in the second half of the first half, and Wu Yuan spared no effort in defense, but there was no way to take Rukawa Kaede.

In the last attack, Miyagi was not in a hurry. Dribble past the midfield and shoot the ball on the spot, keeping an eye on the time of the game. When the time enters the last ten seconds. Miyagi dribbled forward and prepared to attack. Sakuragi stood on a high position early, and after Miyagi made a false swing to the right of Sakuragi, he chose to break through from the left.

Oda gave up his defense against Sakuragi and moved laterally to block Miyagi, forcing Miyagi to cut straight to the basket and choose to bypass it from the outside. Taking advantage of Oda's delay, Miyagi's defenders approached Miyagi again. Miyagi took aim at his defender with his peripheral vision, saw him chasing him, and hooked the ball to Sakuragi, who was unguarded.

A similar situation has occurred many times in the first half, if Oda does not help defend Miyagi, Miyagi will quickly kill the basket, and if the other players are slow to make up for the defense, Miyagi will go to the basket to score points. Even if the defense is in place, Miyagi will give the ball to Tsunoda ~ Yasuda ~ Rukawa Kaede. After helping to defend Miyagi, Miyagi will return the ball to Sakuragi Hanamichi for a high-post jumper, and for Takeshino, Sakuragi's high-post blocking and dismantling is a dilemma.

In the last ball, Oda made a gamble-like choice. After Miyagi used Sakuragi to get rid of the defense, he was the first to assist in the defense, but the bluff component was high. The ball from Miyagi's return pass flew towards Sakuragi, and Oda also turned back to defend, but Oda didn't act fast enough when he saw the opportunity. At this time, even if Miyagi doesn't pass back, Oda will also turn back to defend Sakuragi, and it can only be said that Oda guessed the ball correctly.

Sakuragi hadn't made a shooting motion when he received the ball, and Oda had already clinged to it. The first half was about to end, and Oda wasn't worried that he would get too close and leave Sakuragi with a breakthrough flaw, so Oda didn't plan to let Sakuragi throw the ball out of the ball at all.

It was a very successful defense, just when everyone thought Sakuragi would rush the ball to the basket to end the first half. Sakuragi lowered his raised hand and struck the ball to the side of Oda with his right hand to the basket. Along with the ball, there was a red figure flying to the basket from the side. The ball and man met under the basket, and the sound of a slam dunk sounded one after the other at the end of the half. Amid the cheers of the audience, Oda turned around and saw Rukawa Kaede hanging on the basket, and only then did he realize what had just happened.

"Xiangbei is likely to be the champion of Kanagawa this year." After Xiandao finished speaking, he closed his eyes and looked like he wanted to take a nap.

Xiandao's words attracted a big roll of the eyes of Shigeru Koka, Shigeru Takata said wholeheartedly, you just think like this in your heart~ You don't have to say it! As the leader of the team, such praise of the opponent will affect the rest of the team.

In fact, Shigeichi Taoka, like Xiandao just now, flashed the same thought, but he didn't say it. Sakuragi Hanamichi showed a strong individual attack in the first half, which was certainly eye-catching, but it was not enough to cause the same emotion as Sendo and Shigeichi Taoka. Sakuragi's passing in the first half was the crux of the matter. The last goal proved that Sakuragi's several wonderful assists in the first half were not accidental.

Being able to pass the ball while maintaining a high level of aggression is as simple as it is to say, but it is actually the same as drawing a circle with the left hand and a square with the right hand. Xiangbei already has a very good outside organizer Miyagi, and now Sakuragi can take care of both offense and strategy in the low position, plus the all-round Rukawa Kaede, Xiangbei has three fulcrums, which caused Xiandao to sigh.

In last year's joint finals, Lingnan and Hainan fought, and Yuzhu was sent out early due to foul problems. Xiandao turned on the scoring mode and started a confrontation with Amu, at that time, Xiandao was indeed a little helpless and had to stand up and score. But Xiandao also has a deeper idea, that is, to bring Amu into the rhythm of scoring, when Amu can't take care of passing, in order to offset the overall disadvantage caused by the end of the fish pillar.

Xiandao doesn't know if the current Xiangbei of Ludao is stronger than Xiangbei a year ago, but at least it will not be weaker than the previous Xiangbei. In the past, Xiangbei had Akagi and Mitsui, but Akagi's attack ability in the low position was definitely not as comprehensive as the current Sakuragi. And Akagi does not have Sakuragi's current passing ability, and the five positions in Xiangbei in the past have their own characteristics, but they are not a whole.

From the first half of the game in Xiangbei, Xiandao found that Rukawa Kaede's progress was also huge. Although he is still more outstanding in attack, he can already be regarded as a good system player. Under Miyagi's organization and Sakuragi's strategy, Rukawa Kaede's attack power will be even more terrifying than before. Xiandao closed his eyes and didn't really fall asleep, simulating the scene of the match between Lingnan and Xiangbei in his mind, imagining the possible situation, and thinking about Lingnan's countermeasures.

In the second half, Oda tried his best to score a game-high 32 points, but failed to bring a victory to Takeshien. The three cores of Xiangbei all left the game early, Miyagi got fifteen points and fifteen assists, Sakuragi Hanamichi had twenty-four points, ten rebounds and six assists, and Rukawa Kaede Xiangbei scored the highest score of thirty points and seven rebounds and two assists, and the three of them played very easily.

There was no shortage of highlights in the first game, and the audience enjoyed watching it very much, and they were full of anticipation for the second game. There is no shortage of star players in the Hainan and Lingnan teams, judging from the previous encounters, every time they are full of passion ~ full of suspense. In this time of dynasty change, will a new king be born? The audience is looking forward to witnessing this moment coming.

As soon as Xiangbei and Wuyuan left the field, the Hainan and Lingnan players, who had been waiting on the sidelines, walked to the field first to warm up. Kiyota Nobunaga seemed to be in good shape, and he was very active and excited during the warm-up. On the other hand, on the Lingnan side, the atmosphere was slightly dull, and Fukuda and Naito were even more in a trance, constantly looking at Xiangbei who was exiting, and their eyes were on Sakuragi Flower Road.

At the beginning of the game, Kiyota Nobunaga took the lead in using his personal ability to tear through Lingnan's defense and make a layup on the inside. During the winter trials, Hainan lost to Lingnan and went out, judging from the opening, Hainan had a lot of desire for revenge. Lingnan's Xiandao assisted in the off-road shooting and scored, and also responded with color ~.

"Lingnan is so watery, you actually lost to them, it's a shame!" Sakuragi in the stands, after watching it for ten minutes, taunted his teammates with disdain.

"Are we eliminated by Xiangyang?" As the captain of the team, Miyagi was the first to stand Sakuragi's ridicule, and Miyagi felt that Sakuragi, who often regarded himself as the captain, was questioning his ability to lead the team, and then wanted to seek power and usurp the throne.

"Xiangyang has not been eliminated by Lingnan, the same reason can be proven, it is right to say that you were also eliminated by Lingnan!" Sakuragi just didn't admit that he was wrong, and quibbled. (To be continued......)
