In the next game, as Suzuki expected, the opponent strengthened the pressing of Taiga, but the presence of Endo made Tanaka's response completely unsuccessful. Even though Endo replaced Imai on the court and weakened Xiangbei's outside firepower, Suzuki's tactics for inside rebounds worked wonders, and Xiangbei gradually opened the score, and by the end of the first half, the score had come to 38-33, and Xiangbei expanded the difference to 5 points.

In the last period of time, both sides encountered problems with their shots, but it was Xiangbei, who was even worse, who grabbed a lot of rebounds, which is why Xiangbei opened the score.

Coach Tanaka of Sunrise West looked thoughtfully at Suzuki's excessively young face, and then greeted his players from the sidelines.

On the bench on the other side, Suzuki asked Taiga after everyone had taken a breath and calmed down, "How is it?" ”

Taiga understood what Suzuki was asking, and replied, "It's not weak, but that's all, it's a lot worse than Lingnan." ”

In the game with Lingnan, the score in the first half was 52-40, and the Xiangbei team scored 40 points but lost 52 points.

Imai, who also started that game, lost his combat strength early due to physical problems.

And this time, except for Imai, the first few people in Xiangbei still have more than enough, the physical loss is not serious, and Dahe didn't even sweat much.

Suzuki said: "In the second half, Miyagawa-san came down first to rest, and the center position was taken by Maki-san. Maki-san, how Miyagawa-san fought just now, did you see it? Just do it. ”

Maki got another chance to play and excitedly agreed.

Suzuki hesitated for a moment and said to Yoshino and Mizuhashi, "Yoshino-san, Mizuhashi-san, you two, let's take a break for the time being." ”

Yoshino was a little reluctant, but he still agreed, and Mizuhashi's physical exertion was not small, so he had been prepared for it.

Suzuki looked around at the bench and said, "Lantau and Aoki, you two will play next." The style of play remains unchanged for the time being. ”

Lantau and Aoki nodded in understanding.

Suzuki turned his head to Yanagisawa and Kuroda and said, "Don't be discouraged, you two should watch the game carefully, learn how everyone copes on the court, and you should have a chance to play tomorrow." ”

Yanagisawa and Kuroda were in good spirits, and they had the feeling of being able to see the moon when the clouds were open.

Suzuki finally said to Oga: "Oga-san, the only person I won't replace in this game is you." So, you have to allocate your physical strength well. I, including all of us, can't imagine what it would be like to be on the field without you! ”

Dahe's heart swelled up with a feeling that he was dying for his confidant, and he had always been reluctant to speak for a long time, but he just said "Hi", and then there was no more follow-up.

The 15-minute halftime break went by again.

Okabe, who was standing on the field again, saw that there was only one person in Xiangbei's starter, Dahe, and was a little annoyed, and asked unceremoniously: "Dahe-kun, what do you mean by this?" ”

Dahe replied expressionlessly: "The coach's arrangement." ”

Okabe choked and couldn't ask. As the captain and ace of Sunrise West, Okabe is known for his excellent and rich offensive means, but in the first half just now, in the face of the Tigers of Xiangbei, he didn't play at all, but gave Dahe 1 block and 2 steals, the performance can be described as disastrous, and he was scolded by the old man Tanaka just now.

The two most brilliant people in the first half of Sunrise West are Akihiro Okamoto, the pillar of the inside line, and Shigeru Arakawa, the other is the new star of the outside line.

Although Akihiro Okamoto was robbed of a lot of rebounds in the last 5 minutes, he still scored a full 10 rebounds in the entire first half, 7 of which were offensive rebounds, which directly allowed him to score 8 points from the rebound. Three other offensive rebounds also earned him two assists. In addition, Okamoto's cooperation with No. 9 Ishii on the inside also allowed him to have 4 points, 1 assist, plus 2 free throws and 1 shot. This big man who is silent and silent is shining on the court, not the core of the attack, but he scores more points than the core of the attack.

Arakawa scored 12 of the remaining 20 points. Almost all of the six goals were quick shots, unreasonable mid-range shots. The wayward and unreasonable way of shooting made his shooting rate a little miserable, with 6 of 14 shots, and the shooting rate barely exceeded 40%.

Naturally, at halftime, he also suffered from the baptism of Coach Tanaka's saliva, and now he is angry.

The jump ball still ended in Okamoto's victory, but this time Xiangbei was prepared, Aoki used his explosive power, rushed to Takahashi with an arrow step, and broke the ball to Dahe, who was following him, and Dahe hit the inside line, and simply made a layup.

Sunrise West backcourt serves, the ball just came out, and Tai He, who had not gone far, reached out and cut off the ball, and then threw it into Lantau Island.

Lantau did not have a player from Sunrise West, so he adjusted it and made a three-point shot to expand the score to 43-33.

Xiangbei instantly led by 10 points!

Sunrise West was blinded by the surprise attack of Xiangbei opening, and in the next offense, the iron was hit one after another, and although the two of them who got Suzuki's guidance were not as good as the combination of Miyagawa and Yoshino, they also left half of the rebounds in their own hands, and Dahe took advantage of the victory to chase, and it took only 5 minutes to raise the score to 55-41!

Seeing that the players on the field could not adjust themselves, Coach Tanaka had to call a timeout again.

In the past 5 minutes, the Xiangbei team played heartily and blossomed in an all-round way, with Maki, Aoki, Lantau and Endo all scoring accounts, and Sunrise West, only relying on Okamoto, Okabe, Takahashi, the three third-grade combinations stubbornly counterattacked, the second-year Ishii and the first-grade Arakawa both lost their cool at this time, and the more they wanted to score, the farther away from the goal.

Coach Tanaka replaced Ishii and Arakawa, who were out of order, and replaced No. 7 and No. 10. The two were about the same height as Aoki, and Suzuki couldn't tell what position they were playing for a while.

After the substitution, Sunrise West began to focus on the inside line, although Ishii and Arakawa were two tall down, but as long as the center Okamoto was still there, Sunrise West's inside attack was full of threats.

Seeing that Okamoto kept squeezing out of the real wood to fight the inside line, Miyagawa couldn't sit still and took the initiative to ask for battle. Compared to the height of 190cm, Maki, who is only 68kg, is still too thin, and when Miyagawa was present in the first half, Okamoto's attack was not so unscrupulous.

The score came to 61-51, Okamoto fully explained what it means to get closer to the basket, the higher the scoring efficiency, and at this stage Sunrise West's offense only failed once, while Xiangbei had half of it!

This time it was Suzuki's turn to call a timeout.
