Chapter 85: Xiangbei vs. Xiangyang (3)

Suzuki's substitution made many people unable to understand.

In the few minutes that Maki played, although he was blocked once on offense, he still performed well on the defensive end, and Shoyo's small forward Okazaki Hama only existed as a transit station and has not scored yet.

Now that he is on a Lantau Yangtai that is obviously shorter in height, the offensive and defensive standards have dropped a lot, and it can only be said that Xiangbei is destroying the Great Wall.

It is understandable for others to think so, but Coach Anzai, as the opponent, really thought about Suzuki's intentions and understood that Xiangbei was going to fight a protracted battle, and then nodded and leaned back in the chair.

Xiangbei's substitution, for Xiangyang, is just from the original two strong points to three, there are more choices, how to play or how to play, although the outside line of the long-range shot, the inside rebounds are still completely controlled.

The defender changed from a real tree to Lantau and Okazaki began to try his own mid-range shots.

He's a very smart player, he rarely comes hard, and when he's in a bad position, he gives the ball away instead of coming by himself. Now facing Lantau 10 centimeters shorter than him, Okazaki felt that the shooting range was much bigger, and as soon as he entered the three-point line, he raised his hand and made a jumper.

Lantau couldn't defend against the ball, but Dahe had already made up for it in time, and his fingers straightened and changed the direction of the ball slightly.

However, Taiga's efforts only delayed Shoyo's scoring time, and Shihara was like a big mountain over the heads of Miyagawa and Yoshino, and when the two of them judged the landing point, they were already one step slower than Shihara, and he easily picked up the rebound, and then passed it to Ashizaki.

Ash jumped slightly, his hand was already above the basket, and dunked the ball in.

Xiangbei made a comeback, and the big river rushed into the paint area with Igarashi on top of it, and jumped against Ziyuandun.

Ziyuan looked at Dahe as if he was about to hit three points, and turned sideways to get out of the way, but a giant palm always followed the basketball in Dahe's arms, and as soon as Dahe made a shot, he immediately inserted the broken ball.

Taiga sighed and had to pass the ball back.

Mizuhashi took the ball on the outside, leaned on Miura, and was about to shoot a three-pointer, only to find that one step away from him, Ashigasaki had already squatted down, two eyes staring at him, ready to block with his super jump.

Mizuhashi estimated that without jumping up and exerting force, there was really no way to shoot that kind of high-arc shot, so he had to turn his wrist and pass the ball to Lantau in his hand.

Lantau took a step back after receiving the ball and jumped for a three-point jumper. At this angle, Ashizaki was already unstoppable, but another tall figure flew up, leaning forward, and the giant palm was slapping on the basketball that flew out.

Ziyuan's block power has always been heavy, but this time the basketball landed near the halfline, and then bounced towards the half court in Xiangbei.

Ash Saki cut in at high speed to chase the ball, and Yoshino started half a beat slower, but he was close behind, still in a defensive position.

Both of them ran out of high speed, one red and one green, and the two figures were like a whirlwind blowing across the halfway.

After Ashigasaki received the ball, the speed of the dribble did not decrease at all, until the two of them were still tied for the basket, and in the last step he moved the ball to his left hand and prepared to force a throw.

Yoshino paused at this time, pulled half a step, saw Ashensaki's movements clearly from behind, and stretched out his hand to pull out the ball.

Ashizaki's wrist sank, and the throw turned into a backward pass, where Miura received the ball in place, and the ball was thrown!

The water bridge flew to cover it, but it was a step too slow, not enough, and exclaimed, "This rhythm (so fast)!" ”

Ashizaki had two hands, pressed Yoshino behind his back, and was ready to grab a rebound, but Miura didn't give him this opportunity, and such a hasty three-pointer went straight into the frame.

The offense and defense of this round are the epitome of the first half of the game.

Xiangbei tried his best to find an opportunity to make a shot, but he was often blocked by Ziyuan and Ashaki, and the score rose very hard.

However, Xiangyang is as easy as drinking water. As long as he avoided the point of Igarashi, who was killed by Taihe, Ashizaki, Okazaki and Miura all had a chance, and Shihara was even more accurate in one shot, his height and arm span were not so much a shot as almost every ball was stuffed into the basket.

At the end of the first half, the score came to 25-40, and Xiangbei trailed by 15 points.

Compared with last week, Lingnan fell behind by 26 points in the first half, and Xiangbei's result is already good, but this is based on the extraordinary consumption of the main force.

Miyagawa, Yoshino, and Mizuhashi were all exhausted and paralyzed, sitting on the bench with their heads hung and silent.

Lantau who played a few minutes less than them was also sweating profusely, wiping his sweat with a towel incessantly.

Okazaki is a good runner, and with him, he will pass the ball, and when he is a little away, he will use his superb shooting skills to score. If it weren't for the fact that his body was slightly thin and his style of play could not be as tough as a big river, he would be another inexplicable existence in Xiangyang's lineup.

Dahe was a little out of breath, and his physical exertion was not great.

He fought very aggrieved today, and he has been in a state of strength and nowhere to go.

Xiangyang's outside line is a lot weaker than their inside line.

When defending, Osamu Igarashi's basic skills are very solid, and he doesn't give Taiga a chance to break the ball at all, and he basically has no difficulty in passing, as long as he throws it in the direction of the Xiangbei basket, Ziyuan and Ashizaki have at least two percent chance to perform an aerial relay. Even if they can't attack the basket directly, they can easily hold the ball.

When attacking, Igarashi is also difficult to effectively limit Oga's passes.

However, this is nothing, the four big hands of Shihara and Ash Akira are like a wall of sighs, setting the sky above Shoyang's half of the field as a no-fly zone.

When Xiangyang's two inside linemen appeared on the field together, they were like nuclear weapons!

Shuiqiao, Lantau Island, and even if Dahe himself successfully threw the ball, the accuracy of the shot was greatly reduced because of his concern for their existence.

And the complete lack of offensive rebounds has made the situation in Xiangbei even worse.

In the entire first half, Miyagawa and Yoshino, not even a single rebound, never won from the hands of Purple Plains and Ashizaki!

Xiangyang's two tall interior linemen not only rely on their superior stature and bounce to grab rebounds, they are also a step above Xiangbei at the technical level.

Prediction, card position, and cooperation, these things that the inner line of Xiangbei relies on to gallop in the Kanagawa high school basketball world, Ziyuan is as proficient as Ashizaki, and he plays better than Miyagawa and Yoshino!

"Miyagawa, Yoshino, can you two still hold on?" Suzuki asked.

"I'm fine." Yoshino replied.

Gong He shook his head slowly, and said in a muffled voice: "I'm afraid I won't be able to play for long in the second half." ”

Suzuki looked at Mizuhashi again and asked, "Mizuhashi-san, what about you?" ”

Mizuhashi rubbed his calf and said, "Let me play for another 5 minutes in the second half." ”

Without waiting for Suzuki to ask, Lantau took the initiative and said, "I'm the same as Mizuhashi." ”

Suzuki said: "Then, in the second half, Maki, Imai, and Endo are ready to play at any time, and take a good look at the opponents you will face!" ”
