Chapter Forty-Nine: You Can't Lose Than Projecting Xiangbei!

Hurried footsteps and shouts echoed through the basketball hall.

The spectators on the sidelines were either nervous, or they were already shouting hoarsely, and they couldn't make a sound, and the only thing they could do was to watch the game with full attention.

Bang Dang!

This time, it was Hosoda's pull-up jump shot that went around the baseline and stretched the score to as many as five points.

32-37。

Minowa leads.

Minowa's hand style today is very smooth, more than ten minutes into the game, only five balls have been missed, basically all of them are medium and long-range shots, and the hit rate is as high as more than 70%. Their shooting points are scattered, and everyone except for power forward Maharu Oishi has three-point shooting ability, which is unguardable.

And they are also very active in defence, completely disregarding physical strength, completing many interceptions and passing the ball around the front.

This made Xiangbei go to the main force, but it still couldn't open the situation.

However, Xiangbei is not a vegetarian, facing the opponent's convulsive feel, relying on the strength of the inside line, he also maintained a very high shooting rate under the basket, and the efficiency is not inferior to Minowa.

Suzuki didn't call a timeout to interrupt the Minowa's touch, and Taiga had done a good job on the court, pulling up enough time for each attack and slowing the tempo to the extreme.

The players of Xiangbei and Minowa on the sidelines watched it very awkwardly, and this game was as if two games were spliced together.

One team played fast, with almost every attack taking less than 10 seconds, while the other team was always around 20 seconds, with a fast and slow tempo.

Minowa frantically wanted to bring up the tempo, but Xiangbei pressed the tempo, and the characteristics of the two teams were so stark and opposing that neither could affect the other.

Suzuki looked at Minowa, who was running wildly and shooting frequently, and the word "running and booming" suddenly came to mind.

Coming from later generations, he is familiar with this tactic, and there are people in the jar touting it every day. However, in Suzuki's mind, the NBA did not become popular until the beginning of the 21st century.

Suzuki was pleasantly surprised to see the running boom in the middle of a college basketball game.

Of course, the biggest weakness of the running bomb is that it is difficult to last the whole game, and Suzuki is well aware of this, so he is not worried.

Sure enough, after 15 minutes, Minowa, whose physical strength had declined, began to frequently fail to shoot.

First, Utsumi's three-point shot hit the iron, and then the river wave's mid-range shot was too strong, smashing far after the rebound, and then although Hosoda withstood the pressure and threw three points, the iron felt like an infectious disease, spreading to the entire Minowa team, and Xiangbei suddenly filled the hole that was nearly 10 points behind.

At halftime, the score was 47-46.

Xiangbei overtook by one point.

Miyagawa and Yoshino's two major inside lines are indispensable, the former always squeezes out of the opponent's inner line, and the style of play of forced dunk is simply inexplicable for Minowa, who is generally short in height, and the speed of the latter makes the opponent's fast attack, rarely able to directly hit the basket for layups, and Minowa, who is near the end of the first half, does not score several times, most of which are interfered by Yoshino.

In the second half, Suzuki left the two main players on the field and sent the combination of Maki and Aoki up.

In the small forward position, Lantau has been suppressed by Kashiwagi on the opposite side, and he is also a little tired, Suzuki replaced him with Endo, so that Endo plays against Utsumi, and Taiga plays as a playmaker.

Suzuki tells Taiga to play a little faster and fight with his opponent to attack.

Minowa in the second half gave Suzuki some new surprises.

Oishi and Kashiwagi, who performed well in the first half, were substituted for No. 8 Fujita and No. 10 Tamine. At this time, only the center forward River Lang was left on the field with a height of more than 1.8 meters, and the rest of the people were all at the level of 1.7 meters, and No. 10 Tian Feng was only more than 1.60 meters, which was about the same as Abe, who was not present.

At the beginning of the second half, it entered the white-hot stage again.

After halftime, Minowa's main physical strength recovered, and the shooting rate rose to about 6%. The newly replaced Fujita and Tian Feng are also outside pitchers with a considerable level, especially Tian Feng's three-point accuracy, two shots and two hits, which is Minowa's score again.

However, the height of the field was reduced again, so that Xiangbei's offense was also in a no-man's land.

Aoki and Endo, two new forces with excellent athletic ability, under the command of Oga, continue to play exquisite cooperation, and make a dozen accurate layups. And Mizuhashi on the outside and Maki on the inside, they also relied on their height advantage, ignored the opponent's defense, and scored repeatedly with jump shots.

Takumi Okawa showed his all-round characteristics, and in the chaotic battle, he continued to go to the innermost line to compete with the river waves, and constantly grabbed rebounds on the head of the river waves, allowing Xiangbei to launch a continuous secondary attack.

Compared with the height and weight of the river waves, they are slightly inferior to the big river, and there is no way to take the big river at all.

It's not so much that River Wave has never met a point guard of Dahe's level, but that Dahe has never met a center like River Wave.

The height and technical characteristics of the river wave are completely the template of the small forward, and the river wave with a three-point long-range shot is quite good among the small forwards. On the contrary, River Wave's center skills are not excellent among centers, and his height and weight limit his performance in the paint area.

Seeing this scene, Suzuki thoughtfully called a timeout, gathered all the players on the field who were a little puzzled, and said the tactical instructions that made them even more puzzled: "Next, Oga-san, will serve as the center." ”

Suzuki's first sentence made the whole team cry out in shock, but he ignored it and continued: "The ball is still in the hands of Oga-san, whether to score a layup or pass to an empty position, it is up to Okawa-san to judge." Aoki still plays power forward, while Maki tries to play small forward. ”

"Me? Can I play small forward? Maki pointed to his nose, a little unconfident.

Suzuki explained, "You don't need to break through with the ball, you just need to shoot at the top of the arc as a battery. ”

Maki glanced at the other party's small forward, thinking that the height difference would be 20 centimeters faster, isn't this bullying, so he nodded and agreed.

Suzuki continued: "Endo-san, just dribble past half court, and then give the ball to Taiga, and if you have the chance, you can shoot it yourself." ”

Endo nodded, facing Captain Minowa, whose physical strength had decreased and his speed had slowed down, his pressure was not too great.

Suzuki finally looked at Mizubashi and said, "You're doing well, so just keep going." ”

Mizuhashi was in a good mood, he basically didn't encounter high-intensity defense today, and he played very comfortably.

The timeout was short, Suzuki repeated the change of tactics, and the time was up.

Suzuki looked at the lineup on the field, which was also a large and four small, and thought with a smile: Fight the pitcher lineup, our Xiangbei is not inferior to anyone now!

It is said that there is a large belt and four small, but the height of the "four small" in Xiangbei is generally 5 cm higher than the opposite side, and the real wood in the small forward position is even more obvious, the pitch can not be prevented, the layup can not be prevented, and the performance is more dazzling than the river.

Minowa's Oishi and Kashiwagi then returned to the game, and No. 11 Matsuura and No. 12 Tsukuhara came off the bench to replace the physically exhausted Utsumi and Hosoda, and also maintained a high shooting percentage, however, this warm-up game ended with Xiangbei winning 118-110.

When they parted, Suzuki stopped Minowa's captain, Utsumi, and asked, "Can you talk about who arranged your tactics and training?" Excellent! ”

Utsumi proudly puffed up and replied, "That's nature!" Our flatbed supervisor came back from studying in the United States. ”

I see!

Suzuki got the answer and blessed, "I hope to see you again in the prefectural competition." ”

"Thank you."

The affirmation of the opponent is the best praise.

The Minowa players walked out of the basketball hall laughing and laughing.

"Okay, change your clothes, get your things organized, let's go watch the NBA game footage." Suzuki said.
