Chapter 142: The Beginning
The episode of Fuji's haircut was like a small wave in the sea throughout the morning, and soon it disappeared from the corners of everyone's mouth.
Once again, the competition was in the spotlight.
The first half of the game between Hainan and Buri entered the white-hot stage, the two sides met frequently and fiercely under the basket, and in just ten minutes, the score was 25-23, Mu Shenyi and Buri Twin Towers performed well, Hainan ended the first half with a 4-point lead of 47 points over Buri's 43 points.
By this time, most people felt that Buri had run out of energy, and relying on the inner line of the Twin Towers alone was not enough for Buri to defeat Hainan, and the lack of firepower on the outside line was their biggest drawback.
Sure enough, after entering the second half, the outside line of Hainan High School began to exert its might, and the strong breakthrough of three points in one hand and Mu Shenyi became the most inexplicable match. It can be said that the first ten minutes of the second half completely decided the life and death of Buri and the direction of the whole game.
In the end, Hainan won the game with 85 points and 76 points against Buri, officially crowning himself and achieving his own road to the king of Kanagawa Prefecture for 17 consecutive years.
At the same time, at the moment of the end of the game in the morning, the Xiangbei players and the Xiangyang players stood up on the seats of the spectator seats almost at the same time, and the seats of the two sides were separated from each other on both sides of the field, just enough to see the other party standing on the opposite side. And the actions of these two teams immediately caught the attention of people nearby.
The appearance of this scene made ordinary people aware of the collision between the two teams that permeated the void.
This smell of mutual provocation continued until the moment when the players of both sides appeared before the afternoon game, and it was infinitely amplified in the shouts of supporters on both sides.
The familiar Xiangyang Green Shirts shouted familiar slogans and banged on familiar empty bottles. On the side of Xiangbei, the supporters led by their families and the main body of Fuji female fans are not to be outdone, and the competition between supporters can be said to be the forefront of this game, and it is also a proof of its intensity.
At thirteen o'clock in the afternoon, the game started at the whistle, and Xiangbei sent a more regular starting lineup, that is, a five-person combination of Akagi, Miyagi and Fuji and two third-year players, and Mitsui Shou was sat on the bench in the rest area by Coach Anzai out of tactical arrangement. As for Xiangyang, it is led by ace Kenji Fuji and captain Shunsuke Mtani, and the running and bombing lineup composed of four third-year and one second-year is also the most commonly used lineup of Xiangyang this summer.
Unlike Xiangyang, which was the main force of Hanagatou and others a year later, this year's Xiangyang players have obvious shortcomings in height, which is particularly conspicuous in the jump stage, and Xiangbei's Akagi Gangxian firmly controls the basketball in his own hands with a huge advantage.
Immediately afterwards, Miyagi took the pass and led Xiangbei to launch an offensive towards Xiangyang. Probably anticipating the situation of the serve, Xiangyang did quite decisively in defense, under the command of Fuji Zhen, the defensive formation quickly took shape, but compared to Hainan and Buri, Xiangyang's defense was not as difficult to break as imagined.
Miyagi didn't have to do much with Fuji Zhenduo, and turned the ball directly to Fuji, who stood outside the three-point line and waited for a moment before throwing it, and the goal failed to score, but the red back and the giant shadow in the air gave Xiangbei people a sense of stability.
"It appeared, and the strong entry of Akagi-senpai was in the bottle!" A happy voice came from the bench in Xiangbei.
Fuji smiled when he heard it, this name level is not up to par, and it doesn't have the momentum and image of Sakuragi Hanamichi's "gorilla into the bottle"!
But this is the reliance of Fuji Yuantou, and it is also the advantage of Xiangbei in this game. Fuji waited for Akagi Gangxian to settle under the basket, and once he got the signal, he could immediately make a long shot, and it was best to score, but even if he didn't score, Akagi Gangxian's size advantage would most likely keep the rebounding advantage for Xiangbei.
Akagi's majestic slam dunk posture and the time he spent on the basket even became the cover picture of "Basketball Weekly" after the game.
When Akagi Gangxian landed, the rest of Xiangbei had already retreated, and Fuji Zhen was good at seizing the opportunity, because of the weakness of his physical fitness, Fuji Zhen had made up for it in other aspects, which should not be underestimated.
Sure enough, after Xiangbei gave a strong dismount, Xiangyang's Fuji Zhen took the lead and led Xiangyang to launch a counterattack. After Fujima dribbled past half court, the ball passed to his teammates, but Fujima quickly got a return pass after running aggressively, and found an opportunity to shake Miyagi's line and throw a mid-range shot, which went into the net cleanly.
The pressure on Miyagi was far less than that, and in Xiangbei's counterattack a few seconds later, Fujima found the opportunity to shoot from its side, accurately stole the ball, and immediately organized a quick counterattack, quickly sprinting to Xiangbei basket and scoring a layup.
In less than a minute at the beginning of the game, the total score of the two sides has reached 6 points, and it is still in a dramatic way like Xiangyang overtaking Xiangbei.
Mu Shenyi, who has turned from a player to a spectator, said outside the court: "I didn't expect it to start, Fuji Zhen's hand feels so good, and I'm afraid Xiangbei will suffer heavily next." ”
Because of the goal conceded, Miyagi had to be more cautious when facing Fujima. You must know that in previous games, Miyagi has always relied on his height and skill to steal and steal the ball repeatedly. Today, he was suddenly taught a lesson by a guy who was ten centimeters taller than himself with his familiar stealing ball, and Miyagi's heart was actually very unhappy.
After Miyagi was careful, he passed the ball out in time and transferred it to Takao's hand, and then to Fuji's hand.
The current Xiangyang is a team that integrates offensive consciousness into its bones, and even in defense, it reflects their offensive consciousness all the time. Fuji is very touched by the fact that the Shoyo player who defends him is trying to steal the ball from Fuji's hand all the time.
However, his excessive paranoia about offense caused him to be porous defensively, and Fuji found an opportunity, a feint deformation to get rid of him, and as soon as he threw the opponent behind him, Fuji jumped to the ground. This mid-range shot from within the three-point line went into the net under everyone's gaze.
Fuji's very representative mid-shot allowed Xiangbei to tie the score.
In the situation of Miyagi's dumb fire, Fuji's performance won an opportunity for Xiangbei. Half a minute later, Fujikong ran to the bottom line, threw a three-pointer at an angle of 0 degrees to the bottom line, and successfully scored points, directly rewriting the score to 7-6, and Xiangbei led Xiangyang by one point.
In the first two minutes, both teams showed their own characteristics, both offensively and defensively. Xiangyang shows the art of attacking, while Xiangbei is based on the combination of internal and external lines. Although the distinctive features collide on the field, it seems that it has not been able to stop the pace of scoring on both sides, and the two teams are simply like each other not interfering with each other, you score a goal and I score a goal, and the score can't be pulled away in the long run.
In this case, Xiangyang's Fujima made a decision, he exchanged with Yagyu Chisato of the same team, and began to focus on the defense of Xiangbei's Fuji.
