Chapter Twenty-Three: Death Entanglement, the Trump Card That Has Been Suppressed!
"That kid, not only kept up with the running of the fairy road and completed the steal, but even didn't forget to jam the position of the fairy road when he was fast attacking."
"If it weren't for him, he would definitely be able to catch up with Wu Shi's No. 5 at the speed of Immortal Dao, and with Immortal Dao's figure, it is not impossible to stop this ball."
"This kid is very experienced!"
Under the court, Coach Shingo Katori of Akizuki High School was touching his chin and looking at Jinguji Martial Arts who was standing in front of Sendo at this time. Although he didn't know the martial arts of Jinguji Temple, this did not prevent him from taking a high look at the martial arts.
Although he didn't have much time to play from Martial Arts, just looking at the handling of Martial Arts just now was enough to attract the attention of Shingo Katori.
This kind of golf experience is not something that an ordinary middle school student has.
"Immortal Dao!"
Shingo Katori shouted the name of Sendo in a loud voice, and when Shingo looked at Shingo Katori with his eyes, Shingo Katori spread the palms of his hands down and pressed it down.
Sendo nodded silently after seeing Shingo Katori's movements, and then ran towards the backcourt, ready to meet his teammates who were advancing with the serve at this time.
"Huh?" Xiandao was about to return to the court to catch the ball, but after running a few steps, he suddenly found that he was followed by a person.
Looking back in surprise, he saw Jinguji Martial Arts following him with a smile on his face.
"This guy wants to stare me to death and not let me catch the ball?!" Immortal Dao saw that the pupils of Wu Dao's figure shrank, and he was a little surprised, but also a little funny. It's quite difficult to prevent a player from being on a team.
"Huh?" Martial Dao's bizarre behavior also attracted the attention of others. As far as defence is concerned, defenders generally wait for the opponent to enter their own half before defending.
The first is that the attacking players are not a threat until they enter their own half, and there is no need to defend them, so as to save energy. Another reason is that the opponent has a long distance from the back to the front, and in general, it is easy for players without the ball to get away from the defense in such a wide area.
Instead of wasting energy chasing defense, it is better to stay at the back and maintain a defensive formation.
Defending like Takemichi who closely chases a player and even follows others to the opponent's half of the court is generally only used when the team is playing full-court pressing, which requires teammates to apply pressure together.
Although Xiandao doesn't feel that Martial Arts has the ability to defend himself and not catch the ball, he is still quite vigilant about Martial Arts' defense. After realizing that Wudao had kept up with him, he suddenly changed his rhythm, and he was still jogging slowly, but suddenly accelerated and rushed towards his own bottom line.
At this time, the players of Qiuyue High School have completed the baseline serve, and the basketball is advancing with the ball held by No. 5 of Qiuyue High School.
He noticed Xiandao's movements, and just as he was about to pass the ball, he found that Wudao was also speeding up and followed closely behind Xiandao.
In order not to repeat the mistakes of the past, this player did not choose to play the ball, glanced in the direction of Xiandao, and advanced to the front court with the ball on his own.
Xiandao saw his teammates enter the front court, stopped his feet suddenly, and then ran slowly towards the front court. Although the immortal path was slow, the martial arts did not slack off, facing the immortal path backwards towards his own half of the court, and at the same time his eyes were watching the position of the basketball at this time.
"Squeak!" Suddenly, the immortal dao's forearm propped up on the martial dao's body and rushed out to the side. The martial arts who sensed the movements of the immortal path also turned around and followed closely with the footsteps, but at this time, he was already a position gap from the immortal dao.
The direction in which Sendo, who had briefly escaped the martial arts, was in the direction of their team's No. 5 player, and when Sendo approached, the No. 5 player had already carried the ball to a distance of about 3 meters outside the three-point line. Xiandao moved very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he passed by the No. 5 player, and the basketball also fell smoothly into Xiandao's hands.
"Hand to hand, it's unrealistic to let Xiandao not be able to catch the ball."
"But even if you catch the ball, it's not impossible!"
Wu Dao was just one position behind Xian Dao, and the next moment when Xian Dao successfully received the basketball, Wu Dao had already come to Xian Dao's body, calmly opening his arms.
It's just that between him and the Immortal Dao, the No. 5 player attached to the Autumn Moon Standing still, faintly blocking between the Martial Dao and the Immortal Dao.
Xiandao stood still with the ball in his hands, raised his head slightly with his body calm, and looked into Martial Dao's eyes, looking for an opportunity to break through.
"It's started, Jinguji-san, whether you can stop him or not determines your status in the team."
"Let me see if you're qualified to enter the starting sequence in the first grade!"
The alignment of Martial Arts and Sendo attracted the attention of everyone on the court, and Sendo was the ace scorer of the Autumn Moon Annex, which everyone could judge from the previous few goals.
And Takemichi, who came on as a substitute, was obviously pinned on by Anzai Masayoshi, otherwise he would not have replaced Taro Toyokawa, a third-year, in the first grade.
In this game, whether Wushi Middle School can suppress the offensive of Qiuyue High School depends largely on the results of the confrontation between Martial Arts and Immortals.
"It's coming!"
Wu Dao's eyes were staring at the basketball in Xiandao's hand, and the afterglow looked at Xiandao's legs. Suddenly, the basketball in Xiandao's hand moved rapidly towards the right side of Martial Dao, but his legs were bent in the other direction. Martial Arts, who noticed this, decisively began to act.
"Smack!" The basketball slammed into the ground, and Xiandao quickly broke through towards the left side of the martial arts, and Xiandao had just made a move, and the figure of the martial arts quickly attached to the immortal dao, and at the same time, his left hand followed the trajectory of the basketball rebound, and quickly slapped towards the basketball.
"Squeak!"
And just when Wu Dao was about to touch the basketball, Xiandao's left hand suddenly slapped on the basketball, and the basketball was quickly protected by Xiandao's side, and at the same time, Xiandao's body suddenly stopped in place.
Immortal Dao's body had just stopped, and Martial Dao's body had also stopped, calmly waisted, covering Immortal Dao's face with one hand, and holding it flat with the other, guarding against the breakthrough of Immortal Dao.
"It's seen through!" Xiandao's heart sank slightly, and after the basketball was dribbled back and forth a few times under his crotch, he raised his center of gravity and took a step back, seemingly giving up the strong attack.
However, his movements are just confused, as long as the martial arts raise their center of gravity to keep up, the immortal path can instantly speed up and pass through the defense of the martial arts, although the immortal dao's abacus is very loud.
But the martial arts in front of him didn't eat his set at all, he was still calm, and while the immortal path retreated, the martial arts even maintained the height of the center of gravity, and took a small step forward, without the slightest slackness.
Xiandao's pause position is still more than a meter away from the three-point line, even if he has a good chance to shoot now, Xiandao does not dare to shoot in this position.
The Immortal Dao, whose attack was blocked, not only did not have the slightest frustration, but his face was actually full of smiles.
"Such an opponent is interesting!"
Xiandao whispered, re-lowering his center of gravity, and the basketball flicked back and forth in the low post in front of him, as if to induce Martial Dao to make a steal.
"Hurry up and attack it, what about stir-frying on the spot?"
Wu Dao didn't mean to make a steal at all, his eyes were fixed on the basketball, Yu Guang paid attention to Xiandao's feet, and when he saw that Xiandao was slow to attack, he urged loudly.
