The jump ball in the second half was a battle between the two rookie centers. As the whistle blew, both Akagi and Uozi jumped up and desperately stretched out their hands to catch the ball, and in the end, Uzumi took advantage of his height and arm length to touch the basketball first and sent it to Tsukahara.

Even though the first half was average, Tsukahara still stayed on the field. It seems that Coach Taoka has lost faith in several other point guards, so he has to let Tsukahara make do with it. Tsukahara, like Wakamatsu and Hoshina, is already in the third grade, and will retire from the club this summer. Wakamatsu's position is okay, and Yuzhu can be on top, but in the small forward and point guard positions, Lingnan can lack successors, and Baoke's substitute Nagano is also in the third grade, presumably Lingnan's Winter Cup this year will be more difficult.

Even if he loses this game and can't play in the national tournament, Coach Taoka should be busy in the next two months, and he urgently needs to recruit two of these positions from this year's junior high school graduates to ensure that Lingnan's results will not continue to slide next year.

In contrast, here in Xiangbei, Suzuki is much easier.

Xiangbei's freshmen this year can directly form a complete set of starters, each position is there, what Suzuki needs to do is to try to let them play more games, accumulate a little more experience, and let them grow up quickly.

Mizuno, who took over from Endo to control the direction of Xiangbei's attack, was not frightened at all, and when facing Tsukahara, who was two years older than him, he defended very tightly, so that Tsukahara's fast attack after receiving the ball was not achieved, and he was forced to let Kadomatsu get close to the receiver before sending the ball over the half.

Shakura, who replaced Yanagisawa to defend Baoke, was a little nervous and followed too fiercely, allowing Baoke to open up the distance with a counterrun.

The ball was immediately in the hands of Baoke.

Holding the sand bin with his hand, Bao Ke shook to the left, already sensing that the sand barn's reaction was a little slow, he immediately exerted force on his back foot and broke through with his short body.

Shacang was shaken by Baoke's feint just now, and this time he was a little cautious, but this once again caught Baoke's way, and he broke through his own defense.

In the end, Shacang lacks some experience, and it is obviously a little powerless to defend this ace player who has experienced the baptism of wind and rain in the national arena. If it was Yanagisawa, even if he still couldn't keep up with the pace of Hoshina, he could still make one or two more feints, spend more physical strength, and spend more time, so that his teammates behind him would have more time to organize the defensive line.

As soon as Maki saw that the sand warehouse was broken, he immediately pressed out to defend the department, he stuck very tightly, adding some physical contact from time to time, wanting to slow down the speed of the department, and even destroy his dribble.

Lingnan and Xiangbei have been opponents for many years, and the abilities and shortcomings of the players on both sides are very clear.

Boko has always liked to cut and dunk, and when he has the ball, he will try to make a pull-up jumper. In a word, try to avoid physical confrontation.

Maki, including Yanagisawa before, likes to defend closely when defending Hoko, who is holding the ball, which is also the experience of playing for many years.

Of course, Hokosha also knows his weaknesses, and he has overcome a lot over the years, at least Yanagisawa doesn't have the power to be close to fouling, it is difficult to stop him. However, real wood is naturally not among them. Therefore, after attracting the real wood to supplement the defense, Baoke directly chose to pass.

The ball returned to Tsukahara's hand, and Tsukahara didn't stop the ball, and directly pushed it out with one palm and sent it inward to Wakamatsu.

"Wow!" Suzuki sat up straight in his chair, the scene in front of him was very familiar, and Kuroko Zhe, the former ace point guard of Lingnan, was also very good at this kind of fast passing technique of pushing the ball with one palm. This type of passing is very difficult to control the direction of the ball, and at the same time, it is more demanding from the teammates, so it is very rare. Suzuki didn't expect that this inconspicuous Tsukahara still learned something from Kuroko.

Wakamatsu and Kuroko have been teammates for two years, and it is no longer difficult to receive this kind of pass, so after grabbing the ball, he shoots down, and then takes a step forward to get the bounced ball with both hands, and slams the dunk with both hands.

Akagi was blocked by Yuzumi's broad body, and he could only stare at Wakamatsu's ball.

Mizuno didn't expect Tsukahara to pass such a beautiful assist, his eyes obviously showed excited eyes, and after receiving the serve from Akagi, he changed direction in two succession, shaking Tsukahara with a stagger, and then used a hidden pass from the back to send the ball to the real wood who followed.

Mizuno's passing position and power were just right, and Maki jumped up and down in the area with the highest shooting percentage among him, so that Wakamatsu, who was already well marked, could not make an effective defense.

31-39。

The two teams went toe-to-toe in the attack at the beginning of the second half.

Yuzhu's play greatly relieved the pressure on Lingnan on the inside, especially in terms of rebounding, and became able to compete with the twin towers of Xiangbei.

This gave Kadomatsu great confidence. Kadomatsu was in the mood to shoot four three-pointers from the outside in a row, two of which were more than a step away from the three-point line, but he didn't hesitate to shoot.

These four shots directly earned back 9 points for Lingnan, and the one time he missed, he was also grabbed by Yuzhu and grabbed the ball, lost it back, and continued to shoot.

Xiangbei's offensive efficiency during this period was not bad, Maki scored 4 points with 1 goal and 1 assist, and although Endo's mid-range shot did not score, the offensive rebound was snatched by Akagi and returned to Mizuno to continue to organize. Mizuno saw that the basket was too dense and inconvenient to pass, so he threw one himself, and the ball fell down, turned around on the hoop, and still went in.

However, Xiangbei's goals were all 2 points, while Lingnan's goals were 3 points, and the difference was narrowed to only 5 points all of a sudden.

Suzuki seemed to be a little flustered when he saw the players on the field, and immediately called a timeout and called everyone over to unify their thoughts.

Suzuki said: "Don't panic, we're still five points ahead. Lingnan is actually in a hurry, they actually can't prevent our attack, there is no good way to chase points, and now they are starting to bet on three points. Endo, you continue to follow Kadomatsu so that he can't catch the ball as much as possible. The position where he shot just now was actually very unsatisfactory, and luck accounted for a lot of luck to score in a row. Moreover, he runs around in such a wide range to get rid of it, and the consumption is very large, and if he does this again or twice, his physical strength will have problems. Even if he is allowed to score 3 more three-pointers, as long as our own offense is always successful, they will still not be able to catch up with 1 point and 1 point. So, Maki, Akagi, and Mizuno, the three of you should cooperate more carefully and try to delay the attack as much time as possible. Yuzumi's defense is a bit reckless, and you can consider luring him into a foul. This is Lingnan's last counterattack, as long as you resist it, victory is in sight. Xiangbei will win! ”

After listening to Suzuki's analysis, the hearts of the Xiangbei players were settled, and they all felt that under Suzuki's guidance, Lingnan was nothing remarkable, and shouted together: "Xiangbei will win!" ”

They then walked back to the pitch with their heads held high.
