Chapter 65: The Battle of Xiangbei and Buri (2)

The interaction between Xiangbei No. 6 and Bururi No. 7 Yoshino was just a small episode in this basketball game, and the two did not deliberately face each other afterward, so this scene was gently revealed.

Although the positions on the court are both big forwards, the two teams play differently and do not have many opportunities to face each other directly.

Yoshino from northern Xiangbei often swapped places with Miyagawa, taking turns jamming Aizawa's position and creating an opportunity for another person to make an easy layup under the basket.

And Buri's Yoshino, always floating on the outside, blocking and dismantling, throwing the ball, and not stepping into the restricted area for half a step at all.

The huge difference in height makes Xiangbei's big forwards play more center, while Buri's big forwards are more like small forwards or even guards.

Only in the counterattack of Bururi, when Xiangbei did not have time to lay down the formation and adopted the opponent man-to-man defense, the two Yoshino could face each other head-on.

Like Minowa's river waves, Buri Aizawa is also a center with the ability to shoot from the outside, and when he pulls to the outside, Yoshino will pull out to defend Aizawa, which is a specially designed strain for the opponent's formation changes. Miyagawa's footsteps were slow and unsuitable for follow-up, so this task was naturally handed over to Yoshino.

The rhythm of today's game was chaotic.

Buri's fast offensive was very resolute, but Xiangbei's retreat was very fast, and there were not many such opportunities, so it often had to be turned into positional warfare.

In positional warfare, Bururi's reverse pass is very patient, and he generally does not choose to shoot until there is an empty seat.

After all, if you miss a shot, you basically can't get the rebound Burri.

Xiangbei's attack hit the inside line, which is called a simple and rude.

Whether it's Miyagawa and Yoshino's back-to-back singles, or Dahe's breakthrough into the inside line, Buri's pitiful height is hard to resist.

However, despite such a big flaw in Buri, Xiangbei did not stare at the inside line.

There are also some risks associated with lounging.

The short players in Buri rushed around again and again, and it was still a little uncomfortable for Miyagawa and Yoshino to catch the high ball.

Dahe's shots have been very restricted, and he has been surrounded by a non-stop bag by Buri players.

Sometimes it's Hirose and Sato, sometimes it's Yoshino and Koizumi, this is Taiga controlling the ball, and if you change someone, I'm afraid it will have been broken many times.

Endo looked like earth off the field. This kind of high-intensity pressing is not something he can resist at his current level.

In this situation, Lantau and Shui Qiao have received a large number of opportunities.

The two are not afraid of not being able to shoot, there are Miyagawa, Yoshino, and Okawa in the back, and the three long triangle positions are all in the box, and the rebounds are all over the place, and only the ball with a particularly tricky angle will be missed.

By the end of the first half, the score was 39-42.

Xiangbei didn't have much of a lead, and this was because all of the Buri players had above-level projection ability.

Koji Yoshino and Tatsuya Hirose were no less than Mizuhashi's mid-range shots, while Sato and Koizumi's three-point shots were even more accurate.

In the 3-2 joint defense, the two baseline areas are weak defenses, and Sato and Koizumi often stand on one left and one right, waiting for the ball to shoot three points.

If Lantau and Mizuhashi are defended near the baseline, they will pass the ball to Yoshino and Hirose, although the three points of these two people are not as accurate as Sato and Koizumi, but they still have a considerable shooting rate, and they are also targets that cannot be easily missed.

Throughout the first half, Buri made 11 three-point shots and made eight of them, and the shooting percentage was quite appalling.

However, Xiangbei's offensive efficiency is also not bad.

It doesn't matter if they miss an outside shot, because they know their teammates will get the rebound back.

After the confidence was strengthened, the hit rates of Lantau and Shui Kiu were very good.

Lantau even made 5 of 6 shots, and the performance was better than when he was training.

At halftime, Suzuki observed the players from Xiangbei, and Miyagawa was only sweating slightly. He didn't consume much in the first half, and the opposing center simply couldn't compete with him under the basket.

Yoshino is active, but he is one of the best people in the Xiangbei team, and this amount of exercise is just a piece of cake for him.

Lantau in the small forward position is tired enough, the opponent's outside line has the ability to shoot, each needs to defend, plus Dahe sometimes needs him to cooperate with the ball to avoid the opponent's save, Lantau at both ends of the offense and defense have to contribute, and the physical strength is naturally consumed very quickly.

The water bridge, like the palace river, does not consume much. One of the two is not out of the line, the other is not in the line, they just need to wait for the ball to pass to their hands, and then score in the way they are good at.

Because Dahe has to keep an eye on Sato, he sometimes runs to the bottom line, but this consumption can only be regarded as a warm-up for him, and Captain Xiangbei played very well in the first half, and he didn't exert any strength at all.

Seeing the situation of his team at a glance, Suzuki praised Lantau a few words, and then lit Endo and let him play to feel the game.

Endo's athleticism is very strong, although the defense is not as experienced as Lantau, and the coordination is not as good as Lantau, can be seamlessly connected with the river, but his speed and explosiveness can largely make up for the lack of experience, and the recently developed point guard ability also allows him to organize the offense alone, without the need to cooperate with the heavily surrounded Dahe, so this counterpoint substitution, for Xiangbei, the strength is only enhanced, not weakened.

You must know that Endo's mid-pitch ability is even higher than that of Lantau - although today it may not be as accurate as Lantau Kaihang.

Suzuki said, "It's still the same way in the second half," and then didn't make any more arrangements.

The current situation is very clear, the Xiangbei team has not broken out yet, but the Buri team has already used all its strength.

There was no need for Xiangbei to change tactics at all.

Relaxed, Suzuki began to ask about Yoshino's gossip and said, "Yoshino-san, the number 7 on the other side has the same surname as you, you should know each other." ”

Yoshino nodded and replied, "He is my uncle's second son, two months younger than me, and the two of us have been compared to each other in the family since childhood. ”

"Oh." Suzuki understands that the most direct and murderous version of someone else's child can't hide.

"Did the family come to see the game between your two cousins?"

Yoshino smiled wryly: "Why not! He pointed to a stand diagonally across from him, and continued, "The one in the light green is my mother, and the one next to her in the dark red is my aunt, Koji's mother." The old man on their right is my grandfather. ”

Suzuki didn't think it was a big deal, and ordered: "Oh Oga, pass the ball to Yoshino a few more times in the second half, brush up more points, and let him have a long face in front of his family." ”

Taiga put his hand around Yoshino's neck and leaned over him and said, "Of course! ”

Miyagawa patted Yoshino on the shoulder and said, "Me too." ”

Mizuhashi also nodded at Yoshino from behind.

Seeing the harmony in the team, Suzuki sat back in his chair with satisfaction, stretched his waist and said, "Whatever you play, as long as I have the result, it will be a win!" ”

Dahe smiled: "Don't worry, I'm here!" ”
