Chapter 14: Rukawa Kaede appears
"It's okay, let's change the defense, Nan Lie is also a well-known player in the country, you don't have to feel embarrassed." Ah Shen walked over and patted him even walking~ I don't know which foot to take first. Cross-country nodded, grateful for God's comfort.
The two sides come and go, and the competition on the field has become white-hot. On the Osaka side, under the leadership of the three scoring masters of Itakura ~ Nanlie ~ Kishimoto, Kanagawa did not find a good way to defend. Kanagawa's side, resolutely implemented the tactics of playing the inside line, and Hanagata and Fukuda also overwhelmed the Osaka side, and if they shrink their defense slightly, the gods on the outside will make them pay the price. The score has been alternating and no one can leave their opponents behind.
"The strength of the top eight in the country should not be underestimated." Ooka expressed such a feeling, with the lineup of the five-person person on the field of flower shape ~ Fukuda ~ Ashen ~ Miyagi ~ off-road, even if it is put in Kanagawa, it must be regarded as the top, and it can only be tied with the other party. This gave Taoka's heart an image of the strength of the national level.
Ten minutes into the game, Kanagawa trailed by two points and Ooka made a substitution. With Rukawa Kaede ~ Sendo ~ Naito ~ Planting, I replaced the flower shape ~ Ashen ~ Miyagi ~ off-road. Exercising your own team is one thing, on the other hand, on the court ~ the five people who are definitely not the best are the strongest lineup. Taoka also has to try different combinations through actual combat.
Rukawa Kaede has been waiting impatiently for a long time, and the game is so fierce on the field~ The score is so close, and he can't do anything except watch~ which makes Rukawa Kaede very unhappy. As soon as he came on the field, he had the momentum of killing gods and Buddhas. Tian Oka didn't tell anything, Xiandao is just a worry off the field, and when he arrives on the field, Tian Oka trusts him 100 percent.
Ten minutes into the opening game~ Fengyu was ahead, and in the hearts of Nam Yeol and Kishimoto, they already knew that it would be difficult for them to enter the next round. This is a wheel battle, and each of the opponent's lineups is not weaker than itself. But the two of them are in a good state of mind right now, enjoying the process and enjoying the fun of basketball.
"You've gotten stronger, but I'll be the one who wins!" Rukawa Kaede, who has always been taciturn, said such things to Nanlie as soon as he came on the field. Nan Lie smiled~ didn't say anything, of course Nan Lie didn't think Rukawa Kaede was bragging, but he wanted to defeat himself easily, let's see.
Tetsuya Naito sent a sideline ball and passed the ball to Sendo, who threw it to Uekusa. Uecao watched from the sidelines for ten minutes, which made him less nervous. What's more, playing at the same time as Xiandao gave him a sense of security. Dribbled to the front court and observed the position of his teammates.
Sendo ~ Naito ~ Fukuda are all pulled to the right, obviously opening up space for Rukawa Kaede to attack. Uecao carefully carried the ball and came to the left, Rukawa Kaede had already stretched out his arm to ask for the ball, and behind him was the opponent's captain Nam Yeol.
Uekusa aimed at Rukawa Kaede's outstretched hand and threw the ball over. But Rukawa Kaede didn't touch the ball, because as soon as the ball left Uegusa's hand, Itakura took the ball away, and after a few steps, he had already launched a fast attack.
"It's too vegetable! The intention of the pass is so obvious, when I am fake?" Itakura took the ball and ran all the way ~ straight to the basket, and there were voices coming from behind, but Itakura was in his own thoughts and didn't listen to anything.
A textbook three-step layup, the standard posture is the same as his shooting posture, which is a huge contrast to his appearance. Do you want to provoke it for a while, the short man sitting on the bench? While gliding through the air, Itakura's mind was thinking about the celebration after the goal.
At the moment when Itakura's hand holding the ball approached the basketball and was about to complete the layup. From behind him, a snow-white arm stretched out, and a large hand on it, pressed against the ball. "The cover is beautiful~ Immortal Road!" Miyagi waved his towel and stood up and shouted in relief, as if he had seen through what Itakura was thinking.
Zhicao held the ball in his hand again, and then let out a long breath, and at the same time glanced at Xiandao gratefully. The players on both sides who returned to defend and ran to support them retreated again. No one blamed him verbally, not even in his eyes, but Uecao still cheered up, he was not nervous but a little too relaxed..........
"Your passing intent is too obvious, it's better than the dwarf down there." Itakura, who was chased by the immortal path and wore a big hat, was naturally very angry in his heart, but he was qualified to sprinkle his anger on the body of the planter.
"Plant grass, don't pay attention to that guy, he's nothing but!" Miyagi shouldn't have heard what Itakura said, but looking at his chattering mouth, Miyagi knew that Itakura was talking trash again.
Planting grass behaved very rationally, didn't say a word, and carefully passed the ball to ~ Rukawa Kaede, who wanted the ball to be more powerful. Looking at Rukawa Kaede like that, if he doesn't pass it on to him, he will come over and rob it.
Rukawa Kaede got the ball, took a deep breath, turned around without any feints to cover up, and broke through directly to the basket. This surprised Nam Yeol a little, but he still tried to move his body as much as possible to try to block it. But Rukawa Kaede's movements were sudden enough~ resolute enough, and he squeezed through stiffly.
As soon as Ah Shen was replaced, Feng Yu immediately changed to man-made joint defense to consolidate the inside line to protect the basket. It was Rukawa Kaede who broke through Nanlie, and the opponent's center immediately stood up to encircle Rukawa Kaede. Rukawa Kaede did not pause, pressed his center of gravity lower, and shook the direction in front of his body, sticking to the opponent's center to the basket.
The position of the opponent's center is still good, although Rukawa Kaede passed him, but he was also forced to the back of the rebound, and it is absolutely impossible to have a shooting angle. There was no angle to shoot, and Rukawa Kaede still passed the opponent's center and chose to jump directly. Your body is behind the rebound, your right hand is holding the ball, and your arm is stretched from under the rebound to the basket in front of the rebound.
On the other side, Kishimoto naturally won't sit idly by, and as soon as Rukawa Kaede passes the center, Kishimoto will come over to make up for it. jumped at the same time as Rukawa Kaede, and the big hand slapped fiercely towards ~ Rukawa Kaede who wanted to lower his hand and make a layup.
Kishimoto was deceived by Rukawa Kaede, and Xiandao saw it at a glance. From the height of Rukawa Kaede's jump, Xiandao knew what Rukawa Kaede was thinking. Rukawa Kaede didn't jump on the spot, nor did he jump high with all his might. It was Rukawa Kaede, who was in the air, still gliding forward, after making a feint to pick up the basket. Immediately retracted his arm, the ball was switched from his right hand to his left hand, avoiding Kishimoto in the air, and the basket was picked up from the other side of the basket.
"I'm rubbing ~ too strong!" "That guy is really alone!" The poor spectators, who were few, let out a huge exclamation and at the same time began to become noisy.
Rukawa Kaede, who landed on the ground, did not have any expression, and slowly ran back to his half. There was also no expression, and everyone in Fengyu was a little stunned.
