Chapter 19: Reaching the Finals
But he only hesitated slightly, and turned around~ Kan Ping fell directly, this work is really not done by people, Kan Ping, who fell to the ground, complained in his heart. wiped the board and shot, the basketball flew to the rebound, and suddenly Mikio Kawada found that there were two extra hands on his head and pressed the ball directly on the rebound.
It's so soft! The fairy road that hit Mikio Kawada felt as if he had pressed a large ball of cotton. Xiandao had already seen the clue, judging from the slow movements of this big man, if he chose to pass the ball, he would only pass it to the defender in front of him. So he doesn't let the grass be sandwiched, as long as he dares to shoot, he dares to give up his opposing player~ Come and make up for it.
Xiandao not only covered the ball, but even took the ball down directly after pressing it on the rebound. The opponent's defender didn't give it in vain, and Xiandao came over to prepare to pull out the ball before he landed, but after Xiandao fell, he grabbed the ball with one hand, high and far, and didn't give the other party a chance at all. The opposing defender looks, and he can't reach it...... Gray went back to defense.
After that, the immortal road continued to play and brought the momentum back. Then there were frequent cuts, disrupting the opponent's defense and passing the ball to the players, and the whole team was finally functioning normally. Everyone on the sidelines had the feeling of seeing another version of Mu Shenyi, but there was no "Shenjin" on the other side, which made Xiandao more and more unscrupulous.
When Lingnan was just gaining momentum, Goro Domoto called a timeout, but the effect was very small, because no one could suppress the changeable style of the fairy way. At halftime, Kanagawa temporarily led by eight points. Xiandao scored a double-double for the first time in this tournament, scoring 19 points, eight rebounds, six assists and three blocks in the half.
Although with the help of Sendo, Sugapei was undoubtedly the most tired in the first half, and he was helped by Fukuda to return to the locker room at halftime. "The opponent's resilience is very strong ~ the strength is not weak, and the score must be stretched to 20 points as soon as possible in the second half." Ooka was very satisfied with Sendo's performance today, and also affirmed the strength of the Akita team. "In the second half, Naito ~ Miyagi ~ Rukawa Kaede ~ Ah Shen, the four of you will play, no problem, right?" Tomoko said that the others must be fine, so he looked at Tetsuya Naito.
"Do you have more strength? No problem at all. Naito has never been so confident when he smiled, and after watching half the game~ He has already become a bamboo in his chest, just such a move, it is impossible to approach the basket from himself.
After the start of the second half, it was really difficult for Mikio Kawada to ask for a deep position before holding the ball. But the defender of the mountain king still passed the ball to him, which made Miyagi ~ Rukawa Kaede ~ Ashen very puzzled, according to their previous cognition, when Mikio Kawada was away from the basket, there was no threat.
After Mikio Kawada got the ball, he rubbed his back against Naito's body, like a big bear rubbing against the trunk of a tree. Suddenly turning to the left, the ball slapped on the floor and picked it up, by which time he had already dodged Naito. Because Naito was pushing against him hard, he suddenly lost his focus and rushed out. And Mikio Kawada was under the basket, jumped up and hit the board into the basket.
"Holy!" There was a burst of exclamations from the Lingnan bench, which was more surprising than seeing Sakuragi Hanamichi learn to jump shots. looks so bulky, and the moment I turn around is quite sudden~ very fast.
Goro Domoto was not very surprised when he looked at the reaction of the bench on the other side. If it weren't for Mikio Kawada's easy access to the position in the first half, you should have seen the results of his special training long ago.
"This guy has really improved." Miyagi had such a feeling when he saw the statistics of the technique, and now that he saw that he used this trick, he couldn't help but be surprised.
Rukawa Kaede is not at all interested in Mikio Kawada's progress, and he is full of fire as soon as he plays, and he now understands that he may only have ten minutes to play. The No. 4 player of the Sanno team, except for the occasional kick, can't limit Rukawa Kaede at all. In his opinion, the Rukawa Kaede in front of him is stronger than in the summer, and compared to the pointy-haired one, Rukawa Kaede feels more like Eiji Zebei.
The instant strength of Kanagawa United's lineup on the field really caught the Akita team off guard. But until the end of the game, the score never exceeded 20 points. Looking at the ~ five people in front of him are all the Sanno team that has just played the main team, Shigeru Taoka glanced at Goro Domoto, if he came over and said to himself, sooner or later our Sanno will stand at the top of the high school basketball world again, Shigeichi Taoka will definitely not think that he is bragging.
"Coach ~ We have reached the finals!" After the final whistle sounded, the players in Lingnan shouted excitedly~ and high-fived the players who walked off the field to celebrate. Shigeichi Kooka is still a little in a trance, it's really a bit like a dream, and he actually led the team to the finals.
In the stands, an old man and a young man were sleeping, "Coach ~ The game is over......" The players of the Aichi Prefecture team pushed the dry and thin coach.
"Ah Kuan, don't sleep, we're going back to lunch~ Prepare for the afternoon game." It seems that sleeping is contagious, and after watching it for ten minutes in the first half, Mori Shigekan fell asleep, and then the coach fell asleep with him. Glancing at the score, the old man looked disdainful.
"Jacket! I've found that watching them play is better than sleeping in a hotel! After Mori Shigekuan finished speaking, he stood up and walked out with the team. The opposite Fukuoka team was preparing to leave at the same time, and everyone's eyes were focused on Mori Shigekuan. Looking at Mori Shigekuan was also Ichiro Shinso, who was not as excited as the others, but instead had an imperceptible gloom on his face.
"In the afternoon, all the players gathered on time to watch another semi-final together ~ to collect information about the opponent." At lunchtime, Shigeichi Taoka announced to everyone. He is as happy as the team members, but he is more sober and wants to be more happy, so he must continue to endure now.
"Coach don't need it, didn't Ah Shen fight with them? Let him talk about it in the evening, and let's have free time in the afternoon, right? "Cross Country and the others are a little carried away, they didn't dare to talk to the coach like that in the past, but as the game progressed, their self-confidence became more and more inflated, and with the strength of this Kanagawa team, they didn't think anyone else could stop them from winning the championship.
"I also think it's better for you to go and see it yourself, although watching and playing are two different things, but after watching it~ I'll tell you again, the effect will definitely be better." Ichiro Shinsoichiro was very much in favor of Shigeichi Taoka's decision, and Amu had also noticed this guy Mori Shigekuan in advance, but the fight was far from what he imagined, and that guy couldn't rule his three years in high school.
Although we couldn't move freely in the afternoon, everyone was quite happy, bringing all kinds of snacks, as if we were going to watch a movie. They were definitely not late to the stadium, but they were still shocked when they entered the stadium. They had only raced here in the morning, but in the afternoon things changed dramatically.
The stands were already full of spectators, and the noise was as if it were a vegetable market. "Where did so many people come from? Why didn't you see it in the morning? Miyagi said that he was very jealous, and the attention of the semi-finals was too bad. Except for Ah Shen, who said that he was used to it, the others agreed with Miyagi's dissatisfaction.
After taking advantage of his body, fighting his way out and opening up a "base area", he finally sat down before the game began. Before the butt was hot, the gymnasium was boiling instantly, and both sides of the game came out of the locker room.
