Chapter 68: Xiangbei Battle Xiangyang (4)
Xiangbei has such a stubborn opponent, in the county, Xiangyang does not meet much, but in the national competition, it is a lot.
Fuji really wanted to pass the ball, and rushed through the half court like a whirlwind, which suddenly made Endo, who is known for his speed, a little out of position.
Fuji Zhen felt that he had a chance, and was about to stop and change direction to find an opportunity to make a move, but saw that Gao Gao not only raised his hand, but also shouted to him for the ball.
Fuji Zhen hesitated for a moment, Endo had already stood in position, he didn't want to pass at this time, he had to pass, and he passed the ball to the ground, avoiding Kuroda's possible interception, and passed to the high-level hand.
Gao Jie passed backwards to each other with Tsuchihashi and Hiiragi, pulling Xiangbei's defense line, and by the way, giving Honglin more time to grab positions under the basket, and the offensive rhythm of the game suddenly slowed down.
After falling behind again, several veteran players didn't see any psychological fluctuations at all, and deliberately suppressed the rhythm, how to play or how to play.
This is also the reason why Coach Anzai did not use a large number of first-year players today, he is afraid that the newcomers who have just entered high school will suddenly get excited, give up their own characteristics, and blindly play fast attack with their opponents.
The two games of today's county competition are held in Yokohama and Xiangnan at the same time, and the other two top four teams, Hainan and Wuyuan, naturally cannot come to watch the game, but the players and coaches of the top eight and top 16 teams that have been eliminated have mostly chosen to watch the battle between Xiangyang and Xiangbei.
The entire Miuradae team is in the stands on the east side, and next to it are Dong Feng Ke and Buri.
Coach Harada and Coach Takeuchi are old acquaintances, and the two stand together to watch the ball, while the players in their respective teams surround them and receive lessons.
Coach Harada sighed and said, "The only chance for Xiangbei to win is gone." ”
Takeuchi's fat face straightened, and he responded seriously: "Yes." After that, if they don't have new tricks, it will be difficult to fight. ”
The two of them can communicate with each other smoothly, but most of the players on the side don't understand.
Both teams have a large number of newcomers, and they all scratch their ears and cheeks to ponder the deep meaning of the coaches' previous words, but they have gained nothing.
Harada is a serious person and leads the team with strict rules, while Takeuchi is a bit out of tune, although he is very respected by the players because of his status as a former national player, but the players are not afraid of him, and they are also teachers and friends with each other.
The Buri team members glanced at each other a few times, and finally everyone stared at Midorikawa, the only third-year candidate and captain of the team.
Lu Chuan was looked at by everyone uncomfortable, in fact, he was also very curious about the reason why the two coaches commented on the game like this, so he took the initiative to ask: "Coach, we didn't understand what the two of you said just now." ”
Takeuchi was watching the game, and when he heard his subordinate Ai General ask, he was a little stunned, and first said "What words?" Then he reacted and replied, "Don't you see? From the beginning of the game, Xiangbei has been targeting Xiangyang's point guard, and he is also the only first-year student in their team. ”
Midorikawa recalled for a moment and muttered, "Like, there is." ”
Takeuchi knocked his head and said in hatred, "Where does it seem to be?" It's obvious! The personal strength of Xiangbei players is generally not as good as that of Xiangyang, and the shooting rate is not high when they are defended, and the rebounds are not guaranteed. What do you say they relied on to fight with Xiangyang to the current situation of near parity? ”
Midorikawa couldn't respond, but the point guard Kasamatsu helped him out of the siege and said: "Xiangbei has robbed Fuji Zhen." ”
Takeuchi said: "That's right! Xiangbei relied on steals, and twice, to increase his offensive opportunities, so he barely managed to resist Xiangyang. These two robberies were Fuji Zhen, in fact, he had already snatched him a little hairy, and then the counterattack mainly relied on personal ability, and he didn't cooperate much. ”
Coach Harada continued, "I don't need to tell you what a point guard is doing to the team. And you have to note that if Fujima is replaced for a dysfunctional performance, Shoyang will have to re-let Gao Gao play back to the point guard position, so that Mitsui and Gao Tai can only partner in the guard line. Although these two are also very good defenders and have organizational skills, according to my information, the two of them have never partnered together, so there must be some incompatibility in cooperation. In this way, Xiangbei has a chance. ”
Takeuchi sighed: "It's a pity that the senior players in Xiangyang are too experienced, and they don't need to be adjusted by Coach Anzai, they have already noticed Fuji Zhen's abnormality and took the initiative to help Fuji Zhen calm down." That's why I said, the only chance to win in Xiangbei is gone! ”
Gao Gao used to play a cameo role as a point guard in the team, although it was a cameo, but in this national hegemon-level team, its strength is not a joke, and if you change to another team, you can still get the position of the main point guard.
At this time, he took the initiative to take over the responsibility of the organization, changed his identity, and still played with ease, leaving Kuroda in the opposite position helpless.
Seeing that Honglin couldn't grab a favorable position in the wrestling with Akagi, Gao immediately gave up the play of direct passing, and after changing hands to dribble the ball, he started directly, throwing off Kuroda, like a breakthrough point guard, or even a small forward, into the restricted area.
This is the high-level style of play, although he has a good mid-range shot, but he is still used to getting close to the basket before shooting.
Kuroda was passed, and Yanagisawa stepped forward to make up for the defense, but it was useless, and it was still cleaned in one step. The route chosen by the high-level is very tricky, and Yanagisawa seems to have a chance to prevent him, but in fact, he is not known for his explosiveness, how can the speed that he just started catch up with the high-level who has already started.
After connecting the two of them, there was an open space in front of the high-level, and Akagi wanted to come up to make up for the defense but was afraid of the red forest, and the real wood was a little far away, unless the high-level had to adjust it for two or three seconds, it would be too late.
However, how can it take two seconds to adjust the high-level level? He's not enough for a second! Unguarded, he delivered the final blow as he usually trains.
Yanagisawa served to Endo from the baseline, and the two put on a posture of covering each other, seeing this situation, the high-level beckoned Fujima to retreat directly to his own half, since the opponent is an opponent who cannot be defeated for a while, there is no need to rush forward so early to consume physical strength.
After half-time, Yanagisawa went straight to the bottom corner, Hiiragi should have known that he had a bottom corner three-pointer, and did not hesitate to follow.
Kuroda draws a gourd to the bottom corner of the other side after a backward pass, taking away the high level.
The outside of the free throw line suddenly became empty.
Endo continued to test Fujima's reaction with a tentative step, and suddenly accelerated, squeezing Fujima to his side and advancing towards the basket.
Fuji Zhen didn't give in, only two steps, and re-occupied the defensive position, but this was Endo who deliberately let him go, and taking advantage of this gap, Endo had already stopped and jumped to shoot.
While!
Endo's mid-range shot was a little lighter, and the basketball smashed into the front of the hoop before bounced high.
Suzuki suddenly became nervous and sat up straight to watch the next rebounding scramble.
But he saw that Akagi used all his strength, with his back against the red forest, and did not let him move his feet, while Maki took a step forward and rose into the sky, and after receiving the ball, he threw directly in the air and scored 2 points.
Tsuchihashi was half a beat slower in judging where the ball landed, and when he reacted, he was already behind Maki, and he could only wait for the opportunity to break the ball, but Maki didn't give him this opportunity.
