Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Final Battle (10)

After working hard for most of the game, he was actually led by Xiangyang, Sakuragi was full of resentment, and said to Shakura, who had just returned to his own end line: "Give me the ball, I'll play it back." ”

Shacang did not comply, but pointed to the sidelines and said, "Wait, the coach's gesture is to make a change." ”

Sakuragi looked back, and sure enough, a large group of people stood up in front of the bench in Xiangbei, Akagi and Rukawa were among them, and they were each sorting out their jerseys and wrist guards. And beside them, the team's deputy Mu Twilight twisted his wrist and turned his ankle, and he was already eager to try.

Shohoku's current staffing on the field is Hotta, Mori, Mizuno, Shakura and Sakuragi himself. Hotta and Mori are inside players, and one of them will definitely be replaced by Akagi, which means that Rukawa and Ki Twilight will definitely have to replace two of Shakura, Mizuno and Sakuragi.

Thinking of this, Sakuragi's face turned white, and his feverish brain calmed down, and he understood that he had done something brutally just now.

With the stars of Kanagawa's high schools gathered, how could their coaches miss the annual basketball festival?

On the side of the rostrum of the venue, Hainan coach Gao Tou and Buri coach Takeuchi sat together with Minami Tara and Taoka, pointing out the country and comforting the regret of not being able to participate in the supreme decisive battle in person.

Gao Tou gently patted his palm with a folding fan and said, "If it were me, I would have replaced Sakuragi two minutes earlier to calm down." After all, the first grade is the first grade, and it is still a little tender, even if the technique and body are not bad, the psychology is still not mature enough. ”

Nan Duoliang nodded slightly and said, "Not bad." Sakuragi's performance today is a little impatient. It's no wonder he's competing at this level for the first time! ”

I don't know if it's just to oppose Takatou's opinion, or if he really thinks so, Taoka said, "I don't think it's good to replace Sakuragi like this." This affects his mental state. Today's children are not the same as we were back then. Especially gifted, they all have personalities. Sternness may not be able to be suppressed, and sometimes it arouses rebellion, which can lead to the opposite effect. ”

The three of them all stood on the side of Xiangbei that was reversed, so the former national player Coach Takeuchi, who was about to become a ball, substituted himself into the position of Coach Anzai to think of countermeasures. He said: "Sakuragi will play so that Mitsui can also take a break, otherwise it will be difficult for him to hold on until the end of the game." These two aces are holding each other down, and the same is true in the center forward position. Akagi came up, and the flower shape had to be moved, otherwise it would be difficult for Takano. Hey? What does Suzuki mean by this lineup? What did he think? ”

After analyzing for a long time, the people replaced by Xiangbei were Hotta, Mori and Mizuno, and this result surprised the senior coaches in Kanagawa.

The high-headed fan didn't wave anymore, held it in his hand, frowned and said, "The center is Akagi, there is no doubt about this." But who is the power forward? Is it to let Sakuragi hit the inside line? In this way, who will Mitsui let to defend? ”

Coach Taoka lifted his glasses and said, "It should be Rukawa." Mitsui's physical strength has seriously decreased, and with Rukawa's ability, he should be able to barely prevent him. But in this case, who will play point guard in Xiangbei? Do you have to rely on Mu Dusk? It doesn't seem to work! ”

replaced three people, Xiangbei's lineup changed blood, but basketball is played by five people, Akagi and Mu Du compared a little, and Sakuragi and Shakura, who stayed on the court, also understood their tasks.

Twilight sent the ball out to Sakuragi, who dribbled past Mitsui's defense, moved faster from beyond the three-point line, dodged Kikuji's defense, and threw a three-pointer.

The score was again a draw.

This time it was Xiangyang's turn to change.

In this interval, the coaches continued to talk about it.

Taoka said in surprise: "It's strange, Xiangbei has changed people, why do you still rely on Sakuragi to fight alone, and there is no adjustment in tactics at all." In that case, what are you going to do with Akagi and Rukawa? ”

Gao Tou was also puzzled, and said, "And the replacement of that Mu Dui is also incredible. Whether it is in the small forward position or on the guard line, his strength should be difficult to compete with Xiangyang's twin stars. ”

Takeuchi said: "Coach Anzai replaced Takano and Kikuchi with Hanagata and Nagano. This is the idea of strengthening the inner line, guarding against Akagi. Mitsui remained on the field. I think I can replace him, but he can't stop Sakuragi if he stays on the field anyway. Well, Xiangyang has to change the third one, which should be Mitsui. Hey? Why! Why was Fujima replaced? ”

Takao and Taoka looked at each other, and they couldn't understand Coach Anzai's thoughts. If they hadn't known Coach Anthy's personality, they would have thought that Anthy was an old fool, and in such an important game, cronyism replaced the captain of the team with his grandson.

Shoyo's lineup changed to Hanagata, Nagano, Mitsui, Enomoto and Yoshiki Anzai.

The ball is sent out and Anthy advances with the ball. This shows that he replaced Fuji Zhen and was a counterpoint substitution.

And in front of Anzai, it was Sakuragi!

Facing Sakuragi, Anzai was not frightened at all, and the basketball juggled between his hands, and then suddenly took the ball to Sakuragi's left hand side.

Sakuragi's concentration was so high that he immediately stopped the route he was cutting into.

The road ahead was blocked, and Anzai immediately turned around, circled Sakuragi's body, and walked to his right again.

Anthy's height is only 1.75 meters, which is the shortest person on the field, but at this time, his shortness also has the advantage of being short, that is, he is extremely flexible!

Although Sakuragi's motor nerves are top-notch, as is his explosiveness and speed, this at most helps him catch up with Anzay in time to prevent him from making a layup himself.

Crossing Sakuragi, Anzai didn't stick to the ball, rushed to Rukawa's side, leaned on him and distributed the ball to Mitsui.

Rukawa struggled to jump, but with one person in it, he couldn't prevent Mitsui's shot.

Mitsui used to move as slowly as a snail and as soft as a slime against the card position, but when it came to shooting, his hands were as steady as a rock, and his movements were still as standard as a textbook.

Xiangyang once again led by 3 points.

Sakuragi hadn't stopped the flexible Anzai's breakthrough before, but after the offensive and defensive transposition, Anzai couldn't stop Sakuragi's assault.

Sakuragi strode away, moving all the way through the gap formed by Rukawa and Ki Twilight, straight into the basket, and Anzai could only follow on his side alone, without any way.

Hanagata winked at Nagano and beckoned him to help defend Akagi around the front, while he rushed forward to block Sakuragi's layup.

Hanagata's height is only a little taller than Takano, but his arm span is much longer than Takano, which is one of the reasons why he is Xiangyang's No. 1 center.

Sakuragi deceived Hanagata into moving first, changed hands to the layup, and the ball went out, but he didn't expect Hanagata to stand up in mid-air, and his arm turned sideways and actually rubbed against the basketball, which deflected Sakuragi's shot.

However, Sakuragi's second reaction and continuous jumping ability are all monster-level. After failing to hit a single blow, Sakuragi rose again, grabbed the board and dunked it, and finally stuffed the ball into the basket.

76-75。
