Chapter Eighty-Four: Sakuragi of Nirvana II

Miyagi deserves to be Miyagi, and if you were someone else, you would hit your head on the "wall". Miyagi braked suddenly, and shaking his hand was a back pass. Originally, it was a better choice to pass the ball to the inside player, but Tsunoda didn't even look at himself, and Miyagi could only pass to the outside line on the other side. It was a first-year rookie who received the ball, and after some excitement, he threw it.

After Rukawa Kaede and Sakuragi blocked Miyagi together, the two of them scored points to both sides almost at the same time, stuck in the position of grabbing rebounds. Everything was in an instant, Rukawa Kaede retreated and felt that the people behind him were trying to take a good position first, and Sakuragi didn't feel it at all, as if there was no one behind.

Tsunoda stood up straight, looking up at the ball, as if in a daze, and had no intention of competing with Sakuragi. The ball deflected a little, popped out of the frame and landed on Sakuragi's side, Sakuragi jumped up easily to win the rebound. "What a rebound!" Tsunoda began to clap his hands again. Sakuragi didn't look at Tsunoda with disdain, passed the ball to Yasuda, and ran to the front court speechlessly.

"Tsunoda....... you're such a real person!" Miyagi patted Tsunoda, seeing that he looked honest and loyal, he couldn't bear to say too much, so he said something meaningful.

Yasuda went to the front court and handed the ball to Sakuragi again, Sakuragi looked at Tsunoda, who was standing far away, and felt really bored, so he passed the ball back to Yasuda.

Yasuda looked bored when he saw Sakuragi, so he had to transfer the ball to Rukawa Kaede on the other side. As soon as Rukawa Kaede received the ball, the junior high school brother of Fuqiuka, who was defending him, immediately came to his senses, and he was very excited about the position with his idol. Rukawa Kaede didn't seem to have any attack, and threw the ball high in the middle of Sakuragi and Kakuda, and closer to Kakunoda.

As Tsunoda is an opponent, it is definitely impossible for Rukawa Kaede to pass it to him. But to say that Rukawa Kaede was passed on to Sakuragi, this is a bit of a pit for teammates. If it was in the past, Sakuragi would probably have to "scold" Rukawa Kaede, but now Sakuragi doesn't have any indication, and the ball flies out of the hand Sakuragi and it starts.

Sakuragi's momentum was bound to win, and he completely shocked Tsunoda, not to say that he had no intention of taking the ball, even if he wanted to take his body, he didn't obey the call. Sakuragi jumped up in front of Tsunoda to take the ball, but when he landed, he turned sideways, not giving his opponent any chance at all. Landing ~ Back Turning ~ Jump Shot, the ball hits again. With such a close approach, Tsunoda wanted to make a show, but Sakuragi's back turn was based on him, and the turn also played the role of a fixed defender. Tsunoda is really powerless except to watch.

Everyone was stunned, this ball had nothing to do with Tsunoda's indifference, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that even if he was in Tsunoda's position, it was impossible to prevent it. Rukawa Kaede saw it more clearly, and his pass was originally intended to consider Sakuragi. Sakuragi's movements seem to be an understatement, but in fact, it only shows that Sakuragi has become an instinct skillfully, and Rukawa Kaede asked himself if he couldn't do such an action. Sakuragi's movements belong to the inside line technique of carrying the basket, and he is more inclined to the outside line, and carrying the basket is not the direction of his practice.

If Sakuragi laughed and teased himself, Tsunoda would be nothing, and Tsunoda, who was silent like this, felt very uncomfortable. At the same time, he also felt that Coach Anthy's eyes seemed to be paying attention to him off the field, and it seemed that he had to be more serious.

Miyagi tried to break through again, and it turned out that the first time was not accidental, and the two of them, Rukawa Kaede and Sakuragi, blocked the breakthrough route again, and the attack was again fruitless. This made him regret such a team assignment a little, and he knew that Yasuda should have been left behind. Now that I can't rush in like this, I can't shoot far away, and I can't score it, it's too passive.

Yasuda passed the ball to Sakuragi again, and this time Tsunoda didn't go too far and stuck early. Sakuragi dribbled twice, and Tsunoda felt powerless, and Sakuragi easily pushed two steps to the basket. This made Tsunoda angry, he has been practicing strength for half a year, and the height is not enough to make up for it, when he played against Xiangyang, the flower shape couldn't eat himself, and now Sakuragi actually sees himself as nothing. Tsunoda became completely serious, leaning forward with his entire upper body, vowing to fight Sakuragi to the death.

Sakuragi turned his back to Tsunoda, and after pushing two steps, he turned slightly to the left, and Tsunoda hurriedly adjusted his center of gravity to the left. Sakuragi paused for a moment and made a sharp turn to the right of Lu, completely getting rid of Tsunoda's defense, and Kakuda suddenly lost his fulcrum and pounced on Lu. Sakuragi dribbled one step and easily slammed a dunk with one hand in three steps to score two points again.

After landing, Sakuragi was still calm, and Chiro Michi Tsunoda had done his best, and he didn't look at him, and ran back to the half court with the ball to the bottom line. Rukawa Kaede was always observing Sakuragi, looking at Sakuragi's back with a slight smile on his face. The other players were even more elated~ undisguised pride. Miyagi's side was lifeless and looked depressed.

"From now on we don't release water." Miyagi's anger was completely up, not to mention that Coach Anzai was watching from the sidelines, but the way Yasuda looked at him was enough to make him serious.

The morale finally improved under the encouragement of Miyagi, and the five of them fought violently to the front. After a cover, Miyagi shook off Yasuda's defense and killed the inside again, Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede did not expect Miyagi to repeat the old trick to block themselves. Everything was in Miyagi's calculations, and after Sakuragi pounced, Miyagi sent the ball to Tsunoda with a low hand.

Tsunoda took a step after receiving the ball and was already under the basket. And he's been honed in the game and has some experience. He was ready to wipe the board and shoot, his body was not facing the basket but facing the rebound, and after jumping, his arms stretched forward ~ but his body was trying to lean back. Sakuragi, who turned back to defend, was indeed made more difficult to defend by Tsunoda's move. Sakuragi, who jumped up, first made physical contact with Tsunoda in front of him and was bounced away a little. But Sakuragi is tall and has long arms after all, and although he didn't cover the ball, he put a lot of pressure on Tsunoda. He had to pause in the air before changing another angle to graze the ball towards the rebound.

The ball wiped the board and didn't go into the front of the basket, Rukawa Kaede took the rebound with one hand at the high point, and the others could only watch without even jumping, and they couldn't reach that height at all. Kakuda and Miyagi, who got serious, felt very sorry and went back to defend with hatred.

The ball was passed to Sakuragi's hands again, and the atmosphere on the court began to become heavy. Tsunoda lowered his center of gravity and raised his forearm against Sakuragi, on the one hand, he was afraid of Sakuragi's strength, and on the other hand, he was afraid of Sakuragi's turn, which was a difficult choice for him.

Sakuragi turned around directly with the ball and chose to face the basket, instead of bullying Tsunoda with his weight and strength. The raised hands slowly fell to the left, as if they were about to dribble. In the midst of the exclamation, Sakuragi didn't really choose to dribble, and quickly re-lifted the basketball while Miyagi rushed past his left side.
