Chapter 352: The curtain is over, Coach Anxi's ambition!
Sakuragi Hanamichi's "Emperor" stepped to the basket and received the referee's whistle as a matter of course, and his goal was also declared invalid.
Kiyota Nobunaga, who was still expecting Sakuragi Hanamichi, hugged his head in annoyance and wailed with remorse:
"Ahhh I'm going to believe that idiot again! I'm really a big idiot! ”
"Red-haired monkey, you play a good game for Uncle Ben! You idiot. ”
Kiyota Nobunaga played his tongue fluently when he cursed, and his angry appearance not only did not make Sakuragi feel ashamed, but replied with a stalk on his neck:
"Idiot, you just have to pass the ball to this genius."
"I've mastered the attacking skills, and now it's time to perform!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi is not a person who will easily admit that he "can't do it", and Kiyota Nobunaga's ridicule has no other effect than to make Sakuragi's fighting spirit even stronger.
When the two were chatting and joking, Lingnan had already kicked off and pushed back.
Fuji Zhen felt that this was a good opportunity to counterattack, so the speed of the advance was quite fast, and Xiandao, Futian and others on the Lingnan side also hurriedly followed the footsteps of Fuji Zhen and quickly rushed towards the northern half of Xiangbei.
"The hateful Lingnan, actually sneak attacked!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi and Kiyota Nobunaga didn't realize that the other party had actually begun to fight back until everyone in Lingnan crossed the middle line, and they all scolded in a low voice and hurriedly chased after Fuji Zhen and the others.
But when they found out, it was already a little late, Lingnan frontcourt 3 hit 3, Xiangbei side in time to defend only Rukawa Kaede and Kami Ichiro two, although Nanxiang has returned, but he tried to stop Fuji Zhen who was holding the ball and advancing quickly, and was passed by Fuji Zhen through the crotch.
Breaking into the three-point line, Fujima and Xiandao quickly passed the ball to each other between the two of them, and Rukawa Kaede, who completed the position, was not able to judge who would attack for a while, and when the two approached the basket, Sendao who held the ball was a fake shot and a real pass, and gave Fukuda Yoshio, who was cut up later, and Fukuda Yoshio scored with a one-handed cracker.
Kami Ichiro, who also defended in time, wanted to block it, but Fukuda Yoshio's bounce was much stronger than him, and he couldn't stop Fukuda's attack at all.
The scoreboard jumped, and the small score advantage that Xiangbei High School had just occupied was immediately beaten back by Lingnan High School.
"Sakuragi, this kid, is too variable when he plays."
"I thought he was already in the state, but now it seems that he is still too susceptible."
"Personality jumping, maybe that's this kid's biggest weakness."
Mitsui Shou looked at the cherry blossom road in the field and couldn't help but sigh lightly.
He also sees the growth of Sakuragi Hanamichi, Sakuragi Hanamichi makes some attempts on the offensive end, and Mitsui Shou also recognizes this. But being shouted by Kiyota Nobunaga, Sakuragi Hanamichi's concentration obviously dropped a lot.
Concentration is actually quite important when players play, and people with 9 points of strength can play 10 points of strength when they are focused. In the same way, if his own strength is only 7 points, or even 6 points, when his attention is not in the game, the strength he can exert may only be 4 points, 3 points, or even lower.
There is a limit to the upper limit, but the lower limit is .....
"It's really Sakuragi's biggest problem right now."
"However, Sakuragi's floating upper and lower limits are not only a headache for us in Xiangbei, but also for our opponents."
Wu Dao heard Mitsui Shou's words, and after nodding, his eyes were looking at the Lingnan half.
Where, Shinomiya Tianye, who had already stood up and was ready to play again, was pulled back to his seat by Coach Taoka for a while.
Despite Sakuragi's play, Coach Taoka originally thought that the game situation had evolved into an uncontrollable state. But after Sakuragi Hanamichi's spicy operation, Coach Taoka felt that the situation of the game seemed to be far from that level, and it was actually a good thing to give the players more time to experience and experience.
No, Fukuda Jizhao, who couldn't prevent Sakuragi Hanamichi, has already found the trick to defend Sakuragi Hanamichi?
The growth of ability has to be a game!
After Sakuragi's two mistakes, Kiyota Nobunaga really gave up the point of Sakuragi Hanamichi, and when he reorganized the attack again, Kiyota Nobunaga called a block and broke forward with the ball under the cover of Kamiichiro, and when Lingnan High School completed the change of defense, Kiyota Nobunaga made a return pass and gave the ball to Kamiichiro on the outside.
After Kamiichiro, who took the ball, made a shooting feint, the ball moved sideways, stood up to the defense, and directly made a strong shot.
"Bell~" Kamiichiro's shooting, in the end, received some influence from the defenders, and the three-point shot collapsed directly out of the basket.
And this time, Jun Yuzumi, who had been on guard for a long time, directly stuck Nango Kuichiro behind him and occupied the best landing point in basketball.
"Humph! The rebound is mine! Watching the basketball fall, Yuzumi Jun roared and jumped up and grabbed the basketball.
However, at this moment, Sakuragi Hanamichi's figure suddenly ran in front of Yuzumi's body, although it was half a beat slower than Yuzumi, but Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was also bursting up, was the latter, and the fingertip height easily surpassed Yuzumi, and the first point was under the basketball.
"Wave~" There was a soft sound, and the trajectory of the basketball changed, flying towards the basket.
"Huh~"
As the basketball enters the net, the net is gently pulled up.
Sakuragi Hanamichi, who fell back to the ground, seemed to jump too hard, and landed a little unsteadily, and after a stumble, Sakuragi stood firm, stretched out his hand and pointed at Kiyota Nobunaga, laughing and shouting:
"How?! Do you see the strength of this genius? ”
"Don't continue to pass the ball to this genius!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi completely ignored the cloudy Usumi Jun at this time, and was immersed in the joy of scoring.
And his basket is indeed a joy for the supporters of Xiangbei who watched the game, but after watching the game for so long, the audience also understands the character of Sakuragi Hanamichi, and some viewers immediately shouted:
】
"Hey, red-haired boy, don't get carried away!"
"Lingnan is coming, hey!"
The audience in the stands loved and helpless a player with a character like Hanamichi Sakuragi.
Sakuragi's talent is so great that even a blind person can see it. Moreover, Sakuragi Hanamichi is a player of Xiangbei High School, and in this kind of powerful college, he can get enough playing time in the first year, what does it mean, the audience is very clear.
They don't want their favorite Xiangbei High School to be just a flash in the pan, and the activity of the new generation of players has encouraged these Xiangbei supporters.
But Sakuragi Hanamichi's character is really helpless, Sakuragi is still "good" when he doesn't brag, and when he blows, Sakuragi is only left with one "wrong".
"Bastard, rambling!"
"Of course I know!"
Sakuragi Blossom naturally communicated with the audience she didn't know, and her familiar personality made the audience who had just shouted laugh.
Just won a goal by Sakuragi, it is impossible for Lingnan not to react, as the attack of Lingnan High School spreads out again, the defense line of Xiangbei High School is once again broken.
In the second half of the game, these first-graders of Xiangbei High School relied on the rebounding strength of Sakuragi Hanamichi, as well as the cooperation of Rukawa Kaede, Kiyota, Kamiichiro and Nango, and finally bit the score.
Sendo and Fujima, as well as Yuzumi, Fukuda and others fired and scored, but there was still no way to completely pull the score apart, and the difference between the two teams has been maintained between 1~4 points.
Occasionally, Xiangbei was also able to complete the overtake through Kami Ichiro's three-point shot.
Futian Jizhao's defensive shortcomings, with his own strength, dragged the defense of Lingnan High School to the same level as Xiangbei.
The second half lasted 13 minutes.
As the game progressed, the physical fitness of the players on Lingnan's side decreased significantly, and Lingnan's offensive rhythm began to slow down.
But on the other hand, these people in Xiangbei High School are full of energy, except for Rukawa Kaede, who is tired, and several other players are in good condition.
Kiyota Nobunaga sensed Rukawa Kaede's exhaustion, and also completely slowed down the pace of the attack on the Xiangbei side.
The frequency of offensive and defensive transitions between the two teams began to decline, and at the same time, as fatigue deepened, Lingnan's offensive firepower inevitably began to decline.
In order to avoid a sharp decline in the success rate, the Lingnan players on the field invariably reduced the offensive method of mid-range shooting and began to score through a large number of breakthroughs.
On the side of Xiangbei, the breakthrough of Liuchuan Feng, which consumes a lot of physical energy, is not as sharp as it was at the beginning, and several breakthroughs have been caught by Chishang and others, and they have been successfully defended by Lingnan.
In order to quickly make up for the point difference, Kemei Ichiro also tried to use three-point shots to save the disadvantage for Xiangbei, but the result was not ideal in exchange for a hurried shot.
Fortunately, Sakuragi Hanamichi's rebounding play was still stable, and he defended several rebounds for Xiangbei, so as not to let the score be pulled away too much by the opponent.
But when the game went on for 17 minutes, the score of Xiangbei High School and Lingnan High School finally came to 88:96, 8 points behind Lingnan High School.
By this time, Coach Anzai still hadn't put Jinguji Takemichi, Mitsui Shou and Akagi Goken back on the court.
Looking at the situation of the game in the field, Takemichi shook his head and lost confidence in victory.
The first-graders in Xiangbei are very strong, and they are still not left behind in the face of Lingnan High School led by Xiandao, Fuji Zhen, and Yuzhu, and at this time, the score difference is still in single digits.
You must know that the few who led the team on the opposite side are all famous masters in the country, although Sinomiya Tianye and Huaxing did not play, but today's Lingnan High School, even against an old emperor like Shanghai Nan, is still likely to win.
It is already quite difficult for Xiangbei to rely on these first-grade and Lingnan to fight like this.
On the other side of the court, Coach Taoka looked at the 8-point difference, watched the time pass minute by minute, and after a stoppage, called a timeout, replaced Fukuda Yoshio, and replaced Shinomiya Tianye, intending to give Xiangbei High School a fatal blow.
On the Xiangbei side, Coach Anxi still has no intention of changing people, and maintains the first-grade lineup.
At this time, Mitsui Shou finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Coach Anzai:
"Coach, the difference between us and Lingnan is already 8 points, even if we are first-graders, it should be enough to play the game to this extent, right?"
"8 minutes, there are still three minutes left in the time, change the martial arts of Jinguji Temple and I will play, the victory or defeat between us and Lingnan is still unknown!"
"Why, we have to give up the victory?! Obviously, I can go to the national competition as the first place in the county competition! ”
"The number of seeds is also very important! In this way, we will not meet seeded teams from other counties in the knockout round of the national competition! ”
Mitsui Shou's doubts are actually the doubts of many other players in Xiangbei, in fact, not only Xiangbei's own players are puzzled, but also the supporters of Xiangbei who watch the game, they are also very puzzled, if it weren't for Coach Anzai's high enough status in the coaching circle of high school basketball, his operation would have been scolded by the audience a long time ago.
"The quota of the seed team may be very important to others."
"But for us at Xiangbei High School, it doesn't matter."
"We in Xiangbei don't need the qualifications of the seed team!"
Coach Anzai's words surprised everyone, they thought that Coach Anzai sent Sakuragi and their first-year players to experience the first-year, but now listening to Coach Anzai's words, not only that, but he still deliberately planned to lose the game?
How could young and vigorous high school students understand Coach Anzai's thoughts? In their view, winning is everything!
"Why?!"
"If we Xiangbei really can't beat Lingnan, then I admit it, but why, obviously we still have the strength to spare, obviously we have a chance, why don't we have a seed quota?"
"Why don't you win!"
Mitsui Shou's emotions were also a little unbearable at this moment, he didn't understand Coach Anzai's operation, and he couldn't understand it!
"Don't worry, Mitsui."
"The defeat in front of you is just for more victories later."
"The seeded places, weak knockout opponents, are not what we need in Xiangbei at the moment."
"What we want is more games, stronger opponents, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, what you get in the game is important."
"Mitsui Shou, don't just look at the present, put it in the present, try to look at the long term."
"Our goal is to dominate the country, and I don't think you have forgotten this, and I, in fact, have not forgotten either."
"But what is domination of the whole country?! Winning the trophy? Yes, but not all. ”
"We are a national champion only if we defeat all the strong opponents from all over the country."
"It's not just Lingnan in front of you, it's all! All strong enemies across the country! ”
Coach Anzai, who has not talked much, has become more talkative today, and when he said this to the players, his eyes contained an unprecedented light.
"Don't seed the team, we'll have a lot of opponents! Moreover, they are all strong opponents! ”
"Crush them one by one, this is our goal in Xiangbei this year!"
"Today's game, let Lingnan become the whetstone of our new generation in northern Xiang."
"When the whole country arrives, our butcher's knife in northern Hunan will be slashed on every enemy!"
"And ....."
"The game is not over yet, how do you know that it must be our Xiangbei who loses?! Our first-graders didn't have to give up! ”
Coach Anzai's words gave Sakuragi Hanamichi and others great encouragement, and Mitsui Shou saw that Coach Anzai was actually fanatical and excited, and he was speechless for a while, and didn't say anything more.
After the moratorium ends.
The players of the two teams returned to the court, and when they returned to the Sinomiya field on the court, they looked at the Xiangbei players, and they were surprised that they didn't see the martial arts of Jinguji Temple.
He thought that Coach Anzai was playing a trick, and planned to let Jinguji Wudao come up at the last moment to play the decisive game, but he didn't expect that Xiangbei really gave up.
Although Coach Anzai's words of encouragement were very motivating to Sakuragi, the gap in hard power cannot be bridged by mouth. Coach Anthy is not an inspirational person who eats the fruit of encouragement, and the bonus of words to strength is limited.
Shinomiya Tianye completely made up for Lingnan's loopholes on the defensive end, and Shinomiya Tianye, who entered the inner line, also taught Sakuragi Hanamichi a good lesson, what is called "absolute power", Sakuragi is probably very clear now.
Victory or defeat, after Shinomiya Tianye returned to the court, there was no suspense.
At the end of the game, Lingnan High School won the game with 108:92.
In the last three minutes, Xiangbei High School only scored 4 points.
And the county competition, with the influx of substitutes from Lingnan into the court, also officially came to an end.
"The first-year experience pack, when it's time for the national competition, let's have a good fight."
When the team members shook hands, Jinguji Martial Arts smiled and said to Shinomiya Tianye. Although the other party had never heard of such a thing as an experience pack, Shinomiya Tianye still understood the meaning of martial arts, and also smiled and replied:
"Then I hope that your first year can digest these experiences well, and the next time we meet, I hope they have accumulated enough experience."
