Mitsui Shou topped two Hainan defenders and scored the first three-pointer of the game, which was undoubtedly a booster for Xiangbei.

Although Yamaguchimura and others are still a little nervous in their hearts, and their body movements are still a little stiff, compared to the fear of Hainan players, Yamaguchimura and others are no longer as unconfident as they were before they played.

Xiao San's condition seems to be good today, if he helps him block and dismantle well, he will score a few more goals, maybe he will have a chance to win! Looking at Mitsui's performance under the defense of Hainan's two players, the idea that it might be possible to win began to appear in the minds of Yamaguchimura and others.

I'm not afraid of not having strength, I'm afraid of not having confidence. If you don't even have the courage and confidence to defeat your opponent, and you are cowardly before you fight, then there is really no way to fight. The change in the attitude of Yamaguchimura and others also made Mitsui Shou, who had been paying attention since the opening, feel a little relieved, and his efforts were not in vain.

In the stands, Shigeichi Taoka looked at Mitsui who was returning to defense with some confusion, and recalled the scene when Mitsui refused his invitation again.

"Alas"

Shigeichi Taoka sighed and thought to himself: Mitsui-san, if you hadn't refused to come to Lingnan at the beginning, it would have been great.

During the first year of high school, although Yuzhu, who was still a little stupid, was only a newcomer in the Lingnan team, with his tall stature, Yuzhu, who became the mascot of Lingnan as soon as he joined the team, still sat next to Shigeichi Taoka, ready to listen to the coach's teachings at any time.

So after hearing Shigeichi Taoka's sigh, Yuzhu asked, "Coach, are you sighing because Xiangbei is going to lose?" ”

"There is a great possibility that Xiangbei will lose to Hainan, but in terms of the current situation on the field, it is said that Xiangbei will definitely lose, and if it does not play to really open the gap, it is too early to say that it is going to lose, even if the two teams really open the score, as long as they work hard, there may be a turnaround."

Hearing Yuzhu's question, Shigeichi Taoka gathered his mind and explained to Yuzhu, and at the same time, he also instilled in Yuzhu the basketball concept that he could not admit defeat in advance because of the big difference in strength.

Yuzhu then asked, "Then why did you sigh just now?" ”

Shigeru Taoka was speechless for a while when he heard this, how could he answer this? Lao Tzu sighed that he was rejected!

On the other side of the auditorium, in the gathering area of the Xiangyang team.

"What do you think now?" It was still Hiroshi Kobayashi who was questioning.

After the slap in the face of the first ball, Shoyo's players did not answer immediately, but set their sights on Hikaru Haneda and Kenji Fujima. They can also see that Mitsui Shou, who is playing on the field, is likely to be at the same level as the two super newcomers in his team. Therefore, a group of people did not speak very consciously, intending to wait to hear Haneda Hikaru or Fujima explain.

Although it was not the first time that he had been stared at by so many people, a trace of shame flashed on Fuji Zhen's white face, and after thinking about it, he said his opinion.

"Hainan's goal is not the key, the next few goals are what can really determine the direction of the field."

Kobayashi Hiroshi pricked up his ears and continued to ask as he pretended not to care, "Oh? How so? ”

"Because one or two goals at the beginning of the game are nothing for a game, especially for Hainan, which has always been in a strong position in the game, I think their style of play and momentum will not change because of the goal scored by Mitsui just now. Therefore, whether Xiangbei can defend against Hainan's attack, and whether Xiangbei can score the next few goals like the first goal, is the key to truly reflecting the entire performance of the two teams. ”

Although Fuji Zhen's thinking is still a little naïve, there are many things that have not been taken into account, such as Hainan's tactics and those main players who sit on the bench and have not yet played. But compared to most ordinary players who don't have any tactical concepts, Fujima has already thought far ahead, and the explanation is also very convincing.

Haneda Hikaru saw that Kenji Fujima was ahead of him again and said what he was going to say, so he pouted on the side and did not speak again to supplement Fujima's shortcomings. Instead, he set his sights on the inside line of Xiangbei, and in Haneda's view, whether Xiangbei has a chance to defeat Hainan or not actually lies in Akagi under the basket.

Mitsui Shou gave up the breakthrough style of play and concentrated on being a shooter, although he brought his own attack power to the team to the extreme, but there are hidden dangers behind the high attack.

As the offensive core of a team, it should always be about breaking through and shooting. Just like Rukawa Kaede and Xiandao in the original book, as the ace of the team's offense, he can shoot suddenly. Aggressive breakthroughs that can disrupt the opponent's formation; Shoot without mistakes and put pressure on your opponent with a score.

The two seem to be the same, but in fact there are differences. breakthrough, pay more attention to the all-round ability of the team's ace; Shooting, on the other hand, is more focused on the love between the shooter and the center.

For the ace of a team with all-round development, it is undoubtedly the most correct to break through, disrupt the opponent's defensive line, attract the opponent's pocket, and increase the pressure on the opponent's defense. But Mitsui can't do that, as a pitcher, Mitsui can only share more pressure with his teammates, and the less defense the pitcher faces, the better.

Mitsui Shou, who was also able to shoot suddenly during the junior high school period, could only choose one in the end because of his body, which was not only the misfortune of his physical talent, but also the luck of developing his shooting talent to a higher level.

Therefore, when Xiangbei's outside attack power explodes, it is more and more necessary to have an interior line that can put pressure on the opponent on the offensive end and give the opponent enough deterrence on the defensive end.

In this case, how well Akagi performs is even more important than Mitsui. Because only Akagi has caused enough defensive pressure on Hainan's interior to attract the attention of more defenders can Mitsui face less defense when shooting from the outside.

Similarly, in terms of defense, Mitsui is definitely unreliable, not that Mitsui can't defend, but because Mitsui Shou, who is responsible for the team's offense, is already destined to focus more physical strength and energy on scoring. At this time, Xiangbei's defense only relied on Akagi, and only when Akagi defeated Hainan's inside, or did not lose to Hainan's insiders, Xiangbei had more chances of winning.

When the offensive ability of both teams is not bad, in addition to the player's feel, it is more the team's defensive ability that determines the quality of the team.

On the court, the orange basketball continued to move in the hands of the Hainan team players, during which Xiangbei showed several defensive flaws, but Hainan did not immediately seize the opportunity to attack. The 'king', who is well versed in the lack of width of the Xiangbei bench, from the beginning of the game, is like an adult teasing a child, and consumes the physical strength of the Xiangbei players through tacit passing.

Playing steadily, not just scoring the ball steadily. The players of Hainan told all the spectators with their actions that as long as they ensure that the basketball is not lost, attract the attention of the Xiangbei defenders through passing, and slowly consume the opponent's physical strength and energy, this is Hainan's steady and steady play.

As the seconds passed, the players of the Hainan team, who did not have much offensive time, were not nervous, but the players from Xiangbei began to get nervous.

Of course, Yamaguchimura and the others will not be arrogant, thinking that their defense is very good, so Hainan has not made a move. They know very well in their hearts that Hainan dares to waste offensive time like this, which only shows one problem, that is, Hainan must be very confident in scoring this goal.

The less time remains, the faster and more intense the Hainan offensive will be. The unknown will always be the most terrible enemy of mankind.

How long are they going to pass the ball like this? Time is running out, damn it, where the hell will they attack from? The guy on the left? Or the defender on the right who shook off Osai Onishi's defense? From which side, exactly? A drop of cold sweat ran down Yamaguchi's forehead.

Time is getting less and less, not only Yamaguchi Village, but everyone in the stadium is also waiting, waiting for an attack that Hainan may launch at any time.

Now is the time! Hainan has finally launched an attack!

Yamaguchimura's wandering eyes did not escape the sight of the Hainan No. 6 player opposite him, knowing that the opponent's mind in front of him had been completely disturbed by himself and his teammates, and the Hainan team players wearing white No. 6 jerseys did not choose to pass the basketball after receiving the pass from their teammates.

With just a passing feint and one more leaning, Shibata Yangliang, who was wearing the No. 6 Hainan jersey, easily passed Yamaguchi-mura, who was in a trance and wearing the red No. 4 jersey.

The captain of Xiangbei is actually such a weak guy? How the hell did they get to the quarterfinals? At the moment when Shibata Yangliang broke through Yamaguchi Village, Shibata, who had never thought it would be so easy, was puzzled.

didn't have time to think about it, Shibata Yangliang gave his teammates under the basket a look, and dribbled directly into the Xiangbei penalty area.

The Hainan No. 11 center, who received Shibata's eyes, understood it, took half a step back to attract Akagi's attention, and then went around the front to block Akagi's body and vacated half of his body under the basket.

At the same time, neither fast nor slow, Shibata Yoryo, who had just finished the third step, rose from the ground with the vacated position under the basket, holding his right hand of the basketball high and preparing to dunk.

Let me use a dunk to break your confidence! Looking at the basket that was getting closer and closer, Shibata was a little excited.

However, at this moment, a large red hand appeared in Shibata Yangliang's sight.

How can it be!

"Smack!"

After a loud bang, the basketball in Shibata's hand flew away.

"Whoa—"

"Red No. 15, foul by the hitter, two free throws."
