Chapter 125: The Great War Begins

On the day of the battle between Xiangbei and Hainan, there were flower baskets and flags in front of the gymnasium that served as the competition venue, and the administrator opened the door of the gymnasium at half past seven in the morning.

After five full working days of media rendering, people interested in basketball can't wait to witness today's shocking battle, and reporters have even compared this game to the "strongest battle" and the early "battle for the crown", these words alone are enough to arouse the interest of fans.

Not only are basketball enthusiasts in life attracted, but a large number of high school basketball players and coaches have also arrived at the scene one after another. Of course, they weren't attracted by journalists' fanciful articles.

After all, it is a bit exaggerated to regard this game as the strongest or the first competition, and no one must have any objection to using these words in Hainan, but Xiangbei is different, only defeating Bururi, not Xiangyang. Judging from the current situation, after losing to Xiangbei, Buri will become the least favored team, unless they can defeat Xiangyang today.

The media's exaggeration is not enough to completely manipulate the choice of the masses, and today's flow of people is enough to show that even the masses think that this game, regardless of the level of strength or the degree of excitement, is likely to surpass another game. The name of the king Hainan alone is attractive enough.

Fuji arrived at the competition venue with the team at 9 a.m., and was very excited to see Haruko Akagi, who had come with her brother, and remembered the promise he had silently made in his heart at the door of the same stadium not long ago. Every time he touched this memory, he was full of fighting spirit.

When it comes and goes, that's my forbearance, phew, motto!

With countless sighs of emotion for Haruko's cute appearance, Fuji stepped into the dressing room. The appearance of Xiangbei first attracted the attention of the audience who had not yet entered the venue outside the venue, and the atmosphere became hot all of a sudden. Among this group of people, there are naturally many supporters who are pleasing to the eye in Xiangbei.

Of course, there are more people who are obsessed with the king, and when the Hainan players appeared in the gymnasium immediately after the crowd from Xiangbei, this momentum immediately turned into a huge torrent. The kings who ruled Kanagawa Prefecture for 17 years finally have the status and respect that match them.

The momentum was so strong that it erupted again when the players changed into their jerseys and appeared in the stadium. In this case, in recent years, only Xiangyang and Hainan appeared on the field at the same time, and the similarity is that Xiangyang was also killed as a dark horse back then, and it was not until the end that he fell under Hainan's sharp weapon.

So, can this year's Red Army Xiangbei be black to the end? Many supporters of Xiangbei have such expectations, which were shattered in Xiangyang last year, and since then, two encounters with Hainan have been failures. After Xiangyang lost to Hainan last week, some people have already said that Teng Zhen will not be able to win against Hainan in the three years of high school. Xiangbei, will it follow the old road of Xiangyang?

The same question is also in the bottom of Coach Anxi's heart, his eyes hidden behind the lenses swept over every player in Xiangbei, and the hands on his legs involuntarily clenched a little.

There is no need to elaborate on the casual dialogue between the players before the game, and it is impossible for the two teams without Sakuragi and Kiyota to use the stadium as a stage to perform a drama for the audience before the game. The mode and rhythm of entering the game were even faster than expected, which made Fuji can't help but sigh: "Sure enough, those two guys are cut away, and the people in both teams are normal!" ”

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the game between Xiangbei and Hainan kicked off in cheers.

Judging from the starting lineup, Hainan basically maintained the five-man lineup against Xiangyang, led by the second-year Mu Shenyi, followed by the third-year players. As for Xiangbei, it suddenly took out the lineup in the second half of the game against Buri, that is, the double-shooter lineup!

Fuji, Miyagi, Mitsui, Akagi and Yukimura started at the same time as the Hainan five, and the two sides were able to cheer from the scene just by the confrontation around the midfield.

In the scrum session, Akagi Tsuyoshi competed with Hainan captain Yuki Shiraishi, who was 190 cm tall and was the tallest in the list of Hainan players, and the second-year Takasago Kazuma was inferior to him by a slight advantage of 1 centimeter in height. In the end, Akagi, who was more oppressive in terms of height and physique, took the advantage and successfully led the basketball to the hands of Xiangbei players.

Miyagi Ryota runs fast as soon as he gets the ball, and it is a difficult challenge for him to mark the Faunichi, but on the offensive end, Miyagi is confident that his fast break and offense are not inferior to any point guard.

In the blink of an eye, Miyagi reached outside the three-point line, and when he looked at the scene of Hainan's five-point line already in the three-point line, the whole person was stunned for 0.5 seconds.

"This speed is a lie!" Miyagi was shocked by the sight in front of him.

When Hainan's gentry settled on to defend Miyagi, Miyagi's situation became awkward, because it was not only limited to the appearance of Amu, but also because of the regional defensive posture that Hainan had already shown. At this moment, Miyagi, who was inferior in height, felt that he couldn't touch and try the boundaries of the opponent's defense too much, and in order to be stable, he handed the ball to the Fuji behind Amu, in order to avoid Amu's ball and even hit the ground.

After Fuji received the ball, the Hainan player in front of him, Ryo Tsuki, leaned in.

At first, Fuji chose to play strongly, Hainan's Tsuki Liang is a very slow player to enter the game, and the game with Xiangyang also entered the second half before starting to fire to help the team grab points, at the same time, whether it is the ball sense or reaction, the first and second halves are far different.

This is a fighter with a strange style, and the physical exertion of the others is always getting more and more as time goes on, so that the mental concentration is no longer and the reflexes are getting worse and worse. But this person seems to have turned this law upside down, completely reversed.

Not only a shooter, but also a slow person to enter the state, although his strength in the non-state situation is already terrifying.

Although the fact that the game can get better and better with time proves the terrible physical fitness of Hainan players, it also gives Xiangbei a chance.

Fuji skillfully used to change his steps, and used his body's micro-movements to induce Ryo Rakuki, and two or three times of changing direction and feints were combined, and he successfully shook Ryoki Ryo and bought himself time to count his breath.

Don't hesitate and take a shooting pose as soon as you pass someone. At this time, Ah Mu on the side noticed that this side had rushed over. Fuji was not in a hurry, and the gesture of lifting the ball over his head just changed dexterously, and he threw it to the left back.

Mitsui is already waiting there!

With a "snap", he took the ball with one hand, and at the same time, Yukimura Tsuryo who was closer quietly trotted over.

At the moment of receiving the ball, when Mitsui paid attention to the opponent in front of him, he noticed Yukimura Tsuryo's action out of the corner of his eye, so he decisively dribbled and ran to the left. Kosuke Morishita, who was defending Mitsui, had just taken two steps when he felt like he had hit a wall and was stopped, and when he turned his head, he saw that Tsuryo Yukimura had appeared in his path of action at some point.

With the help of Tsuryo Yukimura's block, Mitsui found space for a stop-and-go jumper and threw the ball out.

After flipping a few laps in mid-air, the basketball crashed smoothly into the hoop, and the sound of friction against the net was rapid and comfortable.

In this way, with the help of the ball grabbed by Akagi jumping ball, after several passes and cooperation, Xiangbei took the lead in scoring. A three-pointer officially announced the start of the war.
