When I first saw a famous friend, the attention of all the people in Xiangbei was attracted by Mori Chongkuan, this big man was really eye-catching.

Not inferior to Akagi's height, but two laps wider than Akagi, such a large tonnage rush, it is estimated that only Miuradai's former rugby players can compete head-on.

Sure enough, when the game started, Akagi faced the impact of Mori Shigekuan, and he was quite unable to parry.

However, Akagi is not completely powerless to fight back. Mori Shigekan's talent is top-notch, but Akagi is not much worse than him. The weight difference of 10 kilograms, for the two giants, has not had a big impact in actual combat as others imagined.

After adapting to Morishige's strength, Akagi's performance on both ends of the floor has improved.

On the defensive end, Akagi still can't do anything with Morishige, but he can form enough obstacles for Morishige to make Morishige always have to work hard to win the confrontation first, and then find a way to choose a way to shoot.

Just this small pause in the rhythm made Morishige's threat to the Xiangbei basket drop by more than half.

Morishige has not played for a long time and lacks experience, especially when he competes with powerful centers. Once he can't get into the rhythm he is familiar with, his shots are often deformed, and his strength is either big or small, and he always has to rely on a second attack to solve the problem.

On the offensive end, Akagi's nimble footwork and virtual and real back-to-back play have become a nightmare for Morishige. Facing Akagi, who is taller than himself, Morishige can't see the ball, and only knows how to resist with brute force behind his back. In the direction of Akagi's attack, Mori Chong can also interfere with Akagi's throwing and hooking, so that Akagi's shot is in vain, but he misses more often!

Unlike Morishige, who played smoothly after entering high school, Akagi has been abused by his seniors since the first year, and he has a lot of experience in dealing with opponents who are stronger than himself.

Kanagawa in recent years has been a concentration camp for monsters.

In the center position, Akagi didn't catch up with the active years of Atsushi Shihara, but after that, Shoichiro Roubayashi and Shinji Ryokawa, he really played hard. In addition, Arakawa Shigeru, Wakamatsu Kosuke, Nakahara Daiyu and even Xiangbei's own Maki Hiroyuki, as well as the first-class centers of the same level, such as Hanagata Toru and Uosumi Jun, Akagi has not faced less.

I missed it earlier, in fact, even Ziyuan, the legendary center, Akagi, met it when I went to Tokyo a while ago, and I saw what it means to be the strongest.

It can be said that Akagi has played a variety of different types of excellent centers over the years, and although Mori Shigehiro is a little unfamiliar, it is not impossible to deal with.

As the game progressed, Akagi became more and more comfortable, while Morishige gradually became impatient.

Along with this, the difference between the two teams is getting wider and wider.

From the balance of power in the first 5 minutes, to the slight signs of leading Xiangbei around 10 minutes, and then to the obvious advantage between 5 and 7 points in 15 minutes.

As the two coaches of Takao and Ofune predicted, as long as someone in the center position can contain Mori Shige, the weakness of the lack of celebrity will be immediately exposed and he will fall into trouble.

Famous friends can't be counted as a one-man team, and the level of captain Yushi Tachikawa is by no means inferior to the main point guard in front of Lingnan, and the MVP of Kanagawa Junior High School the year before last Miyagi Ryota. Although the speed is one line slower than Miyagi, which is known as the electric flint, Tachikawa has a weapon that Miyagi does not have, and it has a stable mid-shot. In terms of danger, Tachikawa is still above Miyagi.

In addition, the vice president of the famous team, the second center Nishimura is also a figure that should not be underestimated. Nishimura's height is only a millimeter compared to Akagi and Morishige. It's easy to guess that Nishimura's style of play must also be the style of play of a traditional center. In terms of offense under the basket, rebounding, and interior defense, Nishimura is a notch stronger than Xiangbei's Maori, but when Maori attacks with the ball, he likes to pull the outside line to play, which makes Nishimura, who likes to lean under the basket, very uncomfortable.

Generally speaking, Nishimura and Maori are half a pound and eight taels, and it is difficult to distinguish between them.

Suzuki took this match very seriously, but he didn't send all the main players at the beginning. Suzuki's starting lineup is center Akagi, power forward Mori, small forward Shakura, point guard Sakuragi, and shooting guard Takeyo.

Rukawa and Mizuno, who had previously played well in the prefectural round-robin, were both pressed on the bench by Suzuki.

The inside line of the two teams is basically evenly matched, but on the outside, it is the world of Xiangbei.

Sakuragi's suppression of Tachikawa is very obvious.

When attacking, Tachikawa can also rely on the skillful cooperation with his teammates, through a large number of passes and runs, to maintain the smooth operation of the famous friend's offensive system, but when it comes to defense, he has no way to take Sakuragi.

With a height difference of more than 20 centimeters, even if Sakuragi only tiptoes and can't jump, the height of his shot is not something that Tachikawa can easily reach. If Sakuragi leans back a little more, Tachikawa will either watch dryly, or he will have to foul.

The same situation is also on the side of Shakura, who plays small forward.

Ishida, who is opposite Shakura, has no disadvantage in height, but Ishida itself is heavy on offense and light on defense, similar to the type of Fukuda auspicious in Lingnan. It was really difficult for Ishida to let Ishida go to the sand warehouse where he was flexible in his defense and often had to pull the side and change positions.

Sakuragi's three-point shot at the top of the arc was very comfortable, Shakura ran the bottom corner and shot it very comfortably, and even with Wu Dai, who was not good at running, he shot three points very well today.

Mingpeng's quarterback Takeuchi is completely a role player in the team, specifically responsible for responding to and protecting Tachikawa, and in addition to his own good speed, he has no other abilities or can't perform.

After more than half of the first half, Xiangbei no longer focused on the confrontation on the inside, and began to increase the intensity of outside projection.

In the previous two games, Mingpeng had suffered from Hainan's Shenzong Ichiro and Green Wind's Lingyang, two three-point shooters.

If it weren't for the imbalance on the outside, how could the famous friends fail to win 5 points when the inside line has an absolute advantage.

Before coming to Xiangbei, Nanyun also specifically asked Kanagawa what other famous three-point shooters. The other party replied that Xiangyang has Mitsui Shou, Lingnan has Kami Ichiro, but Xiangbei has no such players.

That's not wrong. In this year's county competition in Xiangbei, the main focus is on double point guards. Several three-point players in Xiangbei, Shacang, Mu Dui, and Wu Dai, the time and position of these people are unstable, and there is no outstanding performance. Sakuragi is the one who throws the most threes, but Sakuragi is counted as a point guard, and it is certainly not appropriate to call him a three-point shooter.

Mingpeng never thought that it would be surprising that so many three-point shooters could be encountered in a starting lineup, and they were caught off guard and collapsed by Xiangbei's outside line.

At the end of the first half, the score was 53-41.

Even though Morishige and Nishimura were desperately trying to grab points on the inside, the difference between the two teams still came to double digits.
