Chapter 221: Sakuragi Hanamichi's Attack Method!
"Hahahaha! The mortals of Takeshi, I, Sakuragi Hanamichi, want to bring you all down!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi stood at the gate of the arena, his hands on his hips, and shouted loudly.
Mito Yohei looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi who had entered the arena in a daze, his eyes were about to pop out, and he hurriedly shrank his head, for fear of being seen by Takeshi's people, thinking that he was with Sakuragi Hanamichi.
At the same time, the team members of Wushi Middle School also stopped in unison and looked towards the cherry blossom road.
Sakuragi seemed to enjoy the feeling of attention, with his hands on his hips and a somewhat smug expression on his face.
"Who is this? Are you also a junior high school student?"
"Red hair, is it bad?"
"Feeling like a fool, let's leave him alone, the coach will be here in a while."
The members of Takeshi's team looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi and immediately talked about it.
"This big idiot..."
The current captain of the Takeshi basketball club is Rukawa Kaede, and he is the one who leads the team to warm up, and looking in the direction from which the voice came, Rukawa Kaede recognized Sakuragi Hanamichi at a glance, and was speechless.
He ignored Sakuragi's thoughts, clapped his hands, and once again took a step to take the lead. When the rest of the team saw their captain's reaction, they didn't say anything, ignored Sakuragi, and followed Rukawa Kaede's footsteps.
「......」
Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was left to dry, felt insulted in his eyes, and when he was about to make a move, he grabbed Sakuragi Hanamichi's arm and wanted to pull Sakuragi aside, but Sakuragi stood very steady and was not pulled.
"Hey, Hanamichi, wait for Brother Martial Arts to come!"
"Don't make a fuss!"
Mito Yohei persuaded in a low voice, which Cheng thought, as soon as the words fell, Sakuragi Hanamichi directly shook off Yohei's arm, sat on the floor and began to change shoes.
Although Rukawa Kaede didn't pay attention to Sakuragi Hanamichi, there were still some members of Takeshi's team who didn't pay attention to training, and their attention was always on Sakuragi Hanamichi.
"Hey, do you see, that guy is changing his shoes!"
"What is this going to do?"
"That guy can't really be a junior high school student, right? Is it from another school's basketball club? Kicking the gym?"
Seeing Sakuragi Hanamichi start to sit on the ground and change his shoes, there was a discussion in the queue again.
The discussion in the queue became louder and louder, and the minds of the players of Takeshi began to be active, and Rukawa Kaede, who was at the front of the team, knew that the players were starting to be distracted, and was about to remind the players to focus on training, when they saw Sakuragi Hanamichi, who had changed his shoes, actually walked into the arena.
Sakuragi Hanamichi's eyes scanned the audience, then walked to the sidelines, picked up a basketball, dribbled twice to test the feel, and ran towards the court with the ball.
The unknown Takeshi team members finally stopped warming up for a while, and looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi again.
Sakuragi Hanamichi with the ball quickly entered the court, crossed the three-point line, and the next second, Sakuragi Hanamichi closed the ball near the free throw line, and after two steps, he held the basketball high in his right hand and jumped up directly.
"It's so high!" Sakuragi Hanamichi's bounce was quite shot, and the vacated Sakuragi was already able to level with the basket in the sight of everyone in Wushi, and the sound of exclamation came from the queue, even Rukawa Kaede, seeing this scene, Tong Kong shrank and showed surprise.
….
"Bang dang!
With a loud bang, Sakuragi Hanamichi snapped with one hand, pouring the basketball into the hoop, and the loud sound echoed in the empty basketball hall.
After the slam dunk, Sakuragi Hanamichi grabbed the basket with one hand, and his body shook slightly as the basket rose and fell, and after a few seconds, Sakuragi Hanamichi fell back to the ground, bent down to pick up the basketball on the ground, and looked at the Takeshi players led by Rukawa Kaede with a relaxed face.
"Say hello!"
"Now, are you willing to accept my challenge?"
As Sakuragi Hanamichi spoke, he casually threw the basketball in his hand towards Rukawa Kaede. Rukawa Kaede subconsciously received it
The basketball thrown by Sakuragi Hanamichi also became cold.
Fight! He Liuchuan Kaede, what he likes most is to fight!
Rukawa Kaede took the ball and took a step forward, and was about to teach Sakuragi Hanamichi a lesson, when a player wearing a white No. 9 jersey grabbed Rukawa Kaede from behind.
"Rukawa-senpai, how can such a trivial matter be used by you, I'll go and drive him away!"
Mizusawa Ichiro walked out of the queue, stopped in front of Rukawa Kaede, took the basketball from Rukawa Kaede's hand without saying anything, and walked towards Sakuragi Hanamichi.
"Mizusawa..." Rukawa Kaede saw that it was Mizusawa Ichiro who walked out of the queue, and was about to stop it, but Kamiichiro, who was in the third grade, patted Rukawa Kaede on the shoulder and persuaded:
"Let's let Mizusawa go and compete with that red-haired kid, this guy is very capable and won't lose to that kind of person!"
Hearing his teammates say this, Rukawa Kaede didn't say anything, but just reminded Mizusawa Ichiro: "Be serious, don't take it lightly."
Mizusawa Ichiro nodded, walked up to Sakuragi Hanamichi, threw the ball to Sakuragi, and said, "I'm here to accept your challenge!"
"You? Who are you?"
Sakuragi Hanamichi looked at the Mizusawa Ichiro in front of him, who was half a head shorter than him, and actually raised his head slightly, and asked in a disdainful tone. In Sakuragi Hanamichi's eyes, the only person who can become his opponent in Takeshi Middle School is Rukawa Kaede, who is wearing the No. 4 jersey and the captain of the team, how can this unknown little character in front of him be worthy of playing against him?!
"Long-winded!"
"If you want to fight, you will fight, if you don't fight, get out! We don't have time to waste on people like you!"
Mizusawa Ichiro felt that he was underestimated by Sakuragi Hanamichi, and his anger suddenly surged, and he didn't care about Sakuragi Hanamichi's evil face, and directly reprimanded angrily.
Hearing this, Sakuragi Hanamichi also grinned: "In that case, let's defeat you first."
Seeing that Sakuragi Hanamichi agreed, Mizusawa Ichiro immediately said, "One-on-one, bullfighting, three balls!"
"Let's go first!"
Mizusawa Ichiro thought about a quick decision, and after finishing speaking, he walked directly to the three-point line and let Sakuragi Hanamichi attack first with the ball.
However, Sakuragi Hanamichi was actually a little arrogant at this time, threw the ball in front of Mizusawa Ichiro, and said surgingly:
"Strike first! Otherwise, you won't have a chance!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi said unashamedly, as if he didn't take the other party seriously.
"This bastard! I'll open it, I'll open it!"
Mizusawa Ichiro scolded in a low voice, picked up the basketball and walked towards the vicinity of the middle circle, he was also angered by Sakuragi Hanamichi's posture, thinking about quickly getting rid of Sakuragi. At the same time, the other members of Takeshi Middle School also stopped warming up and gathered around the court, shouting to cheer up Mizusawa Ichiro.
….
And Mito Yohei also silently blended into the crowd of onlookers, and looked at Sakuragi with some concern.
Sakuragi Hanamichi has only been in contact with basketball for a few months, and at first he practiced with Akagi Goken and Jinguji Martial Arts, Akagi Goken taught Sakuragi Hanamichi the basics of basketball, and at the same time taught dribbling, basket skills, as well as positioning, board grabbing and defense. As for attacking, Akagi didn't teach it at all.
As for the martial arts of Jinguji Temple, the number of appearances is relatively small, and the three threats of Sakuragi layup and slam dunk are taught, and there are some training methods to practice balls, and more often, it is free-range.
And Sakuragi usually goes to Haruko when he has nothing to do, under the banner of practice, but what he thinks is that he has time to be alone with Haruko. God knows if Sakuragi Hanamichi has put his mind on practice, and I don't know what his current basketball level is.
Although Yohei follows Sakuragi Hanamichi's ass every day, his knowledge of basketball is quite shallow, and Yohei has also watched some Xiangbei games, not to mention anything else, he only feels that there is a huge gap between Sakuragi Hanamichi and Jinguji martial arts. Therefore, in Yohei's heart, Sakuragi's level belongs to the kind of level that can't be put on the table.
Between Yohei's thoughts, Ichiro Mizusawa was already carrying the ball
walked to a position more than a meter outside the three-point line, bent down slightly, and threw the ball to Sakuragi Hanamichi.
The starting position of the bullfight between the two was not far from the three-point line, and Sakuragi, who took the ball, also bent down with open legs, and handed the ball to Ichiro Mizusawa's hands, while opening up a defensive stance.
Mizusawa Ichiro, who took the ball, looked up slightly at Sakuragi Hanamichi, and didn't talk nonsense, his right foot straddled, and he moved the ball right with both hands, a simple three-threat tentative action, but it instantly attracted Sakuragi Hanamichi's attention, and the defender's Sakuragi Hanamichi directly followed the ball sideways, completely vacating the position on his right side.
「?!」
Mizusawa Ichiro obviously didn't expect such a simple tentative action to directly give him a chance to break through, although he was surprised, but the movement in his hand was not slow, and he directly fell the ball from his left side, that is, the right side of Sakuragi Hanamichi to break through, his speed was not slow, and his position quickly surpassed Sakuragi Hanamichi.
"What... The mouth is so wild, and it is so easy to be broken through by Mizusawa."
"Well, don't say that, Mizusawa is our Takeshi's No. 3 scorer, and it's not a shame to be broken through by him."
The Takeshi team members who were watching the game saw that Mizusawa Ichiro easily broke through Sakuragi Hanamichi, and the heart that had been hanging was also relaxed at this moment, and he teased easily.
"Not yet!"
On the contrary, Rukawa Kaede, who had been silent, whispered and set his eyes on Sakuragi Hanamichi. That is, at the moment when Mizusawa Ichiro broke through, Sakuragi Hanamichi had already completed the action of turning back, but he did not chase for the first time, but deliberately let Mizusawa Ichiro pull away from him a certain distance, and then he kicked the ground with both feet, and ran directly behind Mizusawa Ichiro in the blink of an eye.
Mizusawa deliberately glanced back at Sakuragi after the breakthrough, and when he found that he had opened a certain distance from the opponent, he completely relaxed, and quickly entered the basket with the ball, without any extra movements, jumped slightly, held the ball to the rebound, and tried to send the ball to the board.
….
But in the next second, a dark shadow enveloped him from behind him.
Sakuragi Hanamichi actually jumped out from behind Ichiro Mizusawa at this moment, and pinned the ball directly to the rebound with a slap, making a "pop" sound.
"What?! How is this possible?!" Mizusawa Ichiro squinted at Sakuragi Hanamichi's figure and exclaimed. He had just seen that he had gotten rid of Sakuragi Hanamichi, how could the other party follow up so quickly and give him a big hat on the top board?
A second after Ichiro Mizusawa fell back to the ground, Sakuragi Hanamichi fell back to the ground and easily caught the falling basketball. Such a cap is too easy for Sakuragi, as easy as hitting a fly.
"Actually..."
"This red-haired bounce is really powerful, Mizusawa is underestimated!"
After a brief silence, Takeshi's team members began to make amends for Mizusawa. But Rukawa Kaede clearly knew that Mizusawa Ichiro would be capped, not because of the underestimation of the enemy.
Explosiveness, bounce, speed, Mizusawa Ichiro is not as good as Sakuragi Hanamichi, and Mizusawa Ichiro obviously fell into Sakuragi Hanamichi's defensive trap. No matter from which aspect, Mizusawa was pressed by Sakuragi Hanamichi and underestimated the enemy? What if you don't underestimate the enemy?
"Hey, boy, you don't think you're going to be able to get past me, do you?"
Sakuragi grabbed the ball with one hand and said to Ichiro Mizusawa as he walked outside the three-point line with a smile on his face.
"Shhhhhh
"It's just a matter of defending a ball, it's your turn to attack!"
"I'm not going to give you a chance to score!"
Ichiro Mizusawa obviously wouldn't lose his fighting spirit because of this block, so he took a sip and followed Sakuragi to the three-point line.
Just as the two were about to continue the game, Masayoshi Anzai, the coach of Takeshi Middle School, walked into the arena wearing a straight suit, and noticed the court surrounded by the players at a glance. He was silent, silently walked into the arena, stood behind the spectators, and looked at the court.
"Huh? Is it bullfighting? Who is this red-haired boy?"
Anzai Masayoshi looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was holding the ball, and said secretly in his heart.
At the same time, Ichiro Mizusawa, who was in the field, checked the ball and passed it back to Sakuragi Hanamichi. Sakuragi Hanamichi, who took the ball, staggered his front and back feet slightly, and suddenly raised the ball to make a posture of wanting to shoot, and in the next second, his right foot kicked the ground and directly started to break through from his right side.
Sakuragi Hanamichi's breakthrough speed was very fast, and he didn't care if the feint of lifting the ball and shooting deceived the opponent, and he quickly advanced after lifting the ball. Sakuragi's body was directly attached to Mizusawa Ichiro's body, and the huge power actually topped Mizusawa had no way to defend at the first time.
In the blink of an eye, Sakuragi Hanamichi had already pulled away from him and smoothly entered the basket.
Sakuragi, who was holding the ball, didn't mean to look back at Ichiro Mizusawa at all, and when he stepped on the free throw line, he had already completed the ball, and after two steps, he jumped directly with the ball with both hands, and then poured the ball into the basket.
The power of the two-handed clasp is much stronger than the one-handed snap just now, and the entire basketball hoop is shaken by the slam dunk of Sakuragi Hanamichi, and the steel structures rub against each other, making a piercing "squeak" sound.
….
The players of Takeshi Middle School all looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi with both hands in the basket, and they were all shocked by Sakuragi Hanamichi's slam dunk. However, coach Anzai Masayoshi saw a familiar shadow from Sakuragi Hanamichi's breakthrough moves.
"That weird triple threat move..... It's the guy from Jinguji Martial Arts...."
Coach Anzai muttered in his heart, noticing the "unusualness" in Sakuragi's breakthrough move.
Normally, the triple threat refers to dribbling, breaking, passing. When ordinary people are doing the three threats with the ball, the pivot foot does not move, the other foot will choose to translate, and the basketball in the hand will also sweep with the direction of the footsteps, which is to maximize the mobilization of the defender's position, so as to find a breakthrough or pass gap.
However, Sakuragi Hanamichi's movements are different, and the way of standing with the front and rear feet is slightly wrong is to allow the back feet to kick the ground when breaking through, and at the beginning of doing this action, the intention of breaking through has actually been made.
This is a breakthrough method to maximize the use of one's own explosive power and speed, the same technique, the rank of the middle school student, Anzai Masayoshi has only seen it in the body of the martial arts of Jingu Temple.
The former triple threat approach tests the attacking player's technique, eyesight, and ability to grasp the timing. But Sakuragi Hanamichi is a way to maximize its own advantages, and in short, it is a way to make it more violent.
If the strength, speed, and explosiveness of the defenders can't keep up with the offensive players, then it is impossible to defend at all!
