Chapter 55: The Opponent Who Must Be Trodden: Lingnan (14)
"Why are you so desperate? It's just a game! Kuroda saw that Wakamatsu had fallen badly and couldn't get up, so he stepped forward and pulled Wakamatsu up and asked. He was born in the same country as Wakamatsu and was a teammate for two years. The two are fine, the other is reckless, their personalities complement each other, and they have a good relationship, even if they are studying in two schools separately in high school, they have no strangeness to each other.
Wakamatsu grinned, sweating profusely, grabbed Kuroda's outstretched hand, got up from the ground with his strength, heard Kuroda's question, and replied, "I don't want to lose!" If you lose today, you won't have a game for a year! I can't accept that result, Kenji. ”
Kenji Kuroda was stunned for a moment, remembering the incident of last summer's round of tours, and he was a little touched.
Ruosong ignored his strange appearance, and took three steps and two steps to feel the position in the restricted area of Xiangbei.
Now the difference between the two teams is 2 points, if Baoke deliberately misses the ball, converts it into an attack, and scores, the difference will be flattened all at once! Then Lingnan will be able to play more easily in the remaining dozens of seconds, and he can control the rhythm of the game a little.
Baoke took a free throw, and sure enough, the action was a little deformed and the force was too violent.
The basketball slammed into the rebound, and without even touching the hoop, it bounced straight back to Baoke himself.
Baoke rushes, jumps, catches, dunks!
Bang!
At the critical moment, a hand was stretched out horizontally to block Hoshina's dunk, but it was Yanagisawa who saw through Lingnan's plan from the beginning and told Ishii Nu to leave him alone with Wakamatsu who he couldn't defend, but to prepare to intercept Hoshina.
Baoke was not as good as Ishii in terms of strength, and after a long time of exhaustion, he was pressed by Ishii and knocked over from mid-air all of a sudden, lost his balance, and fell.
Ishii was upright, his feet hit the ground first, and he rushed to fly the uncontrolled basketball first, and then Baoke fell sideways, and there was a loud bang.
This time, no one cared about Baoke lying on the ground, and they all rushed to the Lingnan half.
Ishii's ball was supposed to be closer to Kadomatsu and Mizuno, but the two of them bumped into each other in order to fight for the ball, and each of them stumbled, and neither of them could touch the ball.
The ball hit the ground, bounced up again, and was copied by Kuroda first, and Kuroda turned around and rushed towards the empty half of Lingnan.
Matsumoto was taller and turned slower than him, but chased the ball without the ball and caught up with Kuroda as he was close to the three-point line, with some tugging on his hands. Matsumoto knew that if Kuroda was allowed to pass easily and shoot even a 2-point shot, it would be difficult for Lingnan to chase this game. On the contrary, if he fouls ruthlessly, Kuroda may not be able to make both free throws, and in this case, Lingnan can still rely on three-pointers to continue his hope. Now Matsumoto is waiting for Kuroda to get to the three-point line.
Kuroda was entangled by Matsumoto and didn't know that he had made up his mind to foul, but Matsumoto's defensive action close to fouling had already made him uncomfortable, and if he forced his shot, he wouldn't be accurate at all.
However, possession is not Kuroda's strong point, especially when there is a physical confrontation, Kuroda feels that he is about to lose his support and is about to make a mistake.
At this moment, Yanagisawa's voice came from the side, and he shouted, "Kuroda, hurry, this way!" ”
Kuroda didn't raise his head, and followed the voice, but because of Matsumoto's oppression, his pass was a little off, a little deeper.
Yanagisawa reacted quickly, accelerated again, rushed to save the ball before it went out of the sideline, jumped sideways, raised his hands, and posed for a three-point shot.
"Stop him!" Baoke, who had just gotten up from the ground, was stunned when he saw this and shouted loudly.
Ryonan captain Kosuke Wakamatsu let out a roar of unknown meaning from his mouth and flew over, temporarily blocking Yanagisawa's shooting angle. Several third-graders in Lingnan knew that Yanagisawa could shoot three points, and they also knew that his three points were actually unreliable, but at this time, they didn't dare to bet that Yanagisawa didn't feel good!
Yanagisawa retracted, waited for half a second, and waited until Wakamatsu couldn't hold back and rushed over, and continued to pose and shoot.
Then Yuzhu came up again with heavy steps.
Yanagisawa attracted the attention of Lingnan's two big inside lines, and he had already achieved his goal, so he passed the ball out, and he didn't mean to continue to shoot himself. In fact, he can't guarantee that his three points will be scored, and he doesn't dare to bet!
Mizuno stepped forward, leaned in to catch the ball, and then followed with a roundabout move, avoiding Kadomatsu who was staring at him, and then passed the ball to the middle.
Like a tank, Ishii rushed in, slashed his long arms, and the windmill split to complete the attack.
68-72。
The victory of Xiangbei is just around the corner!
The two main forces of Baoke and Wakamatsu fell to the ground continuously, fell not lightly, and ran with a little limp, which made Lingnan's dying counterattack a little weak.
Matsumoto finally suppressed Kuroda and grabbed a more advantageous position, firing from a distance, but did not enter.
Yu lived in the physical confrontation, squeezed Akagi, grabbed the rebound, and was about to dunk himself to score, when he heard Wakamatsu shouting: "Two points are useless, the ball is to the guard!" He understood and immediately returned the ball to Kadomatsu.
Kadomatsu was under Mizuno's defense, and the chance to shoot was not good, and the ball was passed to Hoshina.
The situation faced by Hoshina is actually no different from Kadomatsu, Yanagisawa is even more defensive intensity than Mizuno, but the responsibility of the ace is to bear the hopes of his teammates and bear both glory and pressure. He didn't pass the ball again, but without hesitation, he threw a three-pointer that he wasn't really good at at all!
Brush!
The ball is in!
The whole Lingnan team didn't care about cheering, and they didn't return to defense, and under the instructions of Coach Taoka, they launched a full-court pressing.
"Defend!"
"Defend!"
"Break the ball!"
"Break the ball!"
Lingnan's substitutes and supporters in the stands all stood up and shouted for Lingnan.
As long as the ball is broken in the front court and the attack is successful, Lingnan will be able to overtake in an instant.
It's just that although Xiangbei has not achieved good results in the past two years, it is not a weakling, especially their current point guard on the court, Mizuno, is a player with strong ball control ability.
Kadomatsu and Matsumoto grabbed the ball, but they couldn't break the ball in his hand, but let him find an opportunity and pass the ball to Kuroda.
Kuroda knew that his level was not enough to pass the defense of Hoko, and immediately passed the ball to Yanagisawa who pulled the side, Yanagisawa has comprehensive ability, and his physical strength is more than enough, a Wakamatsu who accelerated past and couldn't run, and Ishii and Akagi fired three arrows together, facing Yuzhu one.
Yuzhu once again showed his immature side, and was deceived into a foul by Yanagisawa's hand-to-hand layup in defense, and while losing 2 points, he gave Xiangbei an extra free throw.
Against the shout of "not entering" in half of the court, Yanagisawa tapped his toes and made up for the penalty.
71-75。
Xiangbei recovered to a 4-point lead.
But there were only 8 seconds left, which was not enough for Lingnan to fight back.
