Chapter 373: Ambitious First Year, Divided Ball Possession!

Between offense and defense, Jinguji Martial Arts has already shown unparalleled dominance on the court.

Before the three of them formed a circle, Jinguji Takemichi easily shot and scored under the defense of Masashi Kawada, and his relaxed shooting posture was engraved in the hearts of every Sanno player.

Eiji Sawakita has the deepest understanding of the strength of Jinguji martial arts, and when he is in the team's practice matches, Eiji Zekita is often the character who breaks through with the ball, and the player who often complements him on the inside line is Masashi Kawada.

When facing Masashi Kawada, Eiji Sawakita couldn't be as relaxed as Jinguji Martial Arts.

It was very difficult to get past Masashi Kawada's defense head-on. Zebei often tries to avoid Kawada's defense, and only then can he score the ball.

But like Jinguji Takemichi from the front shot of Masashi Kawada .... This kind of thing, Zebei Eiji has never thought about.

Xiangbei High School began to retreat quickly after scoring a goal in Jinguji Martial Arts.

Eiji Zebei turned his head and glanced at the scoreboard on the sidelines, looking at the difference between the two teams, with a solemn expression.

Inferior position... Huge disadvantage.

Since he joined Sanno Industries, he has rarely encountered this kind of disadvantage, and the last time was when he played against Lingnan High School.

Unexpectedly, the first game of their mountain king this year fell into a bitter battle.

"Fukatsu, give me the ball, I'll play."

"Now it's imperative to catch up with the score first."

"Zebei, if you can't break through the attack of Jinguji Martial Arts head-on, just run more, and if the opportunity arises, I will give you the ball."

"When Xiangbei realizes the disadvantage of the inner line, the martial arts of Jinguji will move, and at that time, your chance will appear!"

"It's a five-person sport, don't take your previous mistakes to heart."

After Masashi Kawada sent the ball out on the baseline, he immediately said to Fukatsu and Eiji Sawakita. Kazunari didn't want to hit Eiji Sawakita's self-confidence, which Masashi Kawada had already seen.

But Kawada doesn't care about Zebei's mood, his purpose is very simple and pure, that is, to win!

Fukatsu glanced back at Zebei and nodded slightly, agreeing with Masashi Kawada's statement. Zebei Eiji didn't refute, lowered his head, and ran towards the front, the feeling of loss was fleeting.

Zebei is also a mature player and he knows that the most important thing at the moment is what is going on.

If they can't bite the score here, as the game progresses, the score of the two teams will be bigger and bigger, and the more Jinguji Martial Arts continues to play like this, the lower the morale of their mountain king will be.

Taking advantage of the present, resisting the pressure brought by Jinguji Martial Arts and keeping the scores of the two teams from being further stretched is very crucial for the Mountain King!

Kazunari Fukatsu dribbled into the front court, and Rukawa Kaede spread his arms and quickly pressed the opponent as he approached the top of the arc. And this time, Kazunari didn't plan to make a move at the top of the arc, and looked sideways at the position of Takemichi Kamijiji and Eiji Zebei, took the ball, followed the three-point line, and moved towards the left horn.

And Minoru Matsumoto, who was standing here, quickly cut into the inside line, and his movement also took away Mitsui Shou's defense, but Minoru Matsumoto didn't stay on the inside line much, and his foot just touched the floor in the paint area and quickly ran towards the bottom corner.

Seeing this, Mitsui Shou didn't follow up anymore, and landed directly in the middle distance of the right bottom line, and was actually ready to make up for the basket at any time.

"Mitsui Shou's experience is very sophisticated!" Coach Taoka, who was in the stands, saw Mitsui's running position and praised it with a smile.

In the next second, Fukatsu Issei in the stadium directly changed his rhythm, his steps were wrong, and he quickly accelerated to break through, and changed direction directly in front of his body at the moment when Rukawa Kaede followed up. Just when Rukawa Kaede adjusted his position to pursue again, Kazunari Fukatsu sent the ball with his left hand and passed the ball directly into the inside line.

At this time, Masashi Kawada was standing in the middle distance on the left side, and after the basketball was in hand, he directly raised the ball high and turned to face the basket, and after quickly lifting the ball and shooting a false shot, he dropped the ball quickly and turned around.

In an instant, he crossed Akagi Goken

, a lunge directly into the basket, one-handed dunk into the basket into the basket.

Sharp low feet easily tore through Akagi's defense and helped his team score.

Not to mention that Akagi Gangxian didn't react, even Mitsui Shou, who was ready to fill the position, didn't react for a while. From Masashi Kawada getting the ball to slamming the dunk, I'm afraid it was only two seconds, and he broke through Akagi's defense in such a short time, which Mitsui Shou didn't expect.

He thought that Akagi would be able to resist no matter how much he could, and as long as he delayed the opponent's attack slightly, Mitsui Shou would be able to get on the pack. Na Cheng thought, Masashi Kawada would not give such a chance at all.

"Good!

!」

After the goal, Masashi Kawada thumped his chest and roared to cheer himself up.

His goal, his enthusiasm, gave some energy to the lifeless Mountain Kings bench.

"Come on! The King of the Mountains! Come on! The King of the Mountain!"

"Defend! Defend! Defend!"

Led by an unknown supporter of the Mountain King, rhythmic shouts rang out from the stands, on the bench.

"Masashi Kawada... Sure enough, this player has become our biggest obstacle in Xiangbei."

"The gap between Akagi and him is so big..."

Jinguji Takedo looked at Masashi Kawada's back and trotted towards the front. Masashi Kawada's excellent performance was actually expected by him, and he predicted that Akagi might be blown up.

Because in the past two years in Xiangbei, Akagi Gangxian has not made great progress because of the arrival of Jinguji martial arts. His talent has determined the speed of his progress, in fact, compared to the first year of high school, Akagi Goken has improved a lot.

From a stupid big man who can't even dribble the ball, to now one of the best centers in the county and ranked in the top ten in the country, Akagi's progress has surpassed many ordinary people.

But after all, he is not a genius like Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede, and there is a limit to his progress speed.

Maybe what Jinguji martial arts brought to Akagi was only the improvement of mentality.

There is an insurmountable super talent in the team, and Akagi Goken is not unacceptable to lose to Masashi Kawada.

It's just that he still feels a little guilty about being passed by the other party so easily.

"At the very least, you have to resist him for a while longer, so that your teammates have a chance to fill in the gap!" With this in mind, Akagi quickly entered the front court and landed on the inside.

Rukawa Kaede advanced with the ball, and when he crossed the middle line, his eyes fell on Jinguji Martial Arts, and sure enough, this time, Jinguji Martial Arts was still backed by Eiji Zebei, reaching out to him for the ball, it seemed that Jinguji Martial Arts was planning to take over the game.

"Sure enough, this kid is going to pass the ball to Jinguji Martial Arts!" Fukatsu Kaede, who was defending Rukawa Kaede, saw Rukawa Kaede looking towards Jinguji Martial Arts, and at the same time, he saw that Martial Arts was already preparing to receive the ball with his back to Zebei, and he immediately had a judgment in his heart.

Rukawa Kaede levitated and dribbled, his palm covered the basketball, as if he was about to pass the ball, at this moment, Fukatsu Kazunari took an arrow step, directly blocking the passing route of Rukawa Kaede and Jinguji Martial Arts, and at the same time reached out to grab the basketball, wanting to steal.

However, he just made a move on his side, and Rukawa Kaede, who was still hovering the dribble a second ago, quickly pressed the ball down, and directly accelerated past Kazuni with a low dribble. Fukatsu was wary of Jinguji Martial Arts, and had already vacated Rukawa Kaede's breakthrough route.

"What?!" As soon as the snatched hand was empty, Fukatsu Kazunari saw Rukawa Kaede quickly passing in front of him, and he let out a low cry in his mouth and hurriedly pursued.

And Rukawa Kaede, who broke through, also attracted Nobe Shohiro's defense at this moment, and everyone's eyes were focused on Rukawa Kaede at this time.

"Hugh!

Just when everyone thought that Rukawa Kaede would forcibly attack Nobe Shohiro's defense, a red pillar quickly flashed in front of everyone's eyes. The basketball was directly passed out by Rukawa Kaede and given to Mitsui Shou in the bottom corner.

At this time, Minoru Matsumoto, who was defending Mitsui Shou, was making up for the inside line, intending to grab the rebound, but in front of Mitsui Shou, there was no one to defend at all.

"That's good, Rukawa Kaede!"

With a snap, the basketball started, and Mitsui Shou smiled and sent the ball out with a direct two-stage shot. The beautiful shooting posture made the reporters on the sidelines involuntarily press the shutter of the camera.

"Whew!"

The basketball hollowed into the net, and the soft sound of it reached everyone's ears.

Three-point shot, medium!

Mitsui Shou clenched his right hand into a fist, and his face was filled with a confident smile.

"It's blooming more, the Mountain King can't stop the attack of Xiangbei, and he's about to collapse!"

Seeing Mitsui Shou throw in the three-pointer, Coach Taoka in the stands said to the players with a surging smile on the corner of his mouth. Xiangbei was able to suppress the mountain king so easily, and he, the coach of Lingnan, was very happy to see it.

The stronger Xiangbei is, the stronger it is, and the victory over Lingnan of Xiangbei High School, won't the status of the boat rise?

In other words, the more comprehensive the strength of Xiangbei now, the more time they have to consider countermeasures. The team of Xiangbei who are now on the field is showing it for the first time in front of the national audience.

Coach Taoka is also the first time to see such a configuration in Xiangbei.

The appearance of Rukawa Kaede has brought about a qualitative change in Xiangbei, if they Lingnan collides with Xiangbei first, for a while, Coach Taoka really can't think of any good way to deal with it.

And the situation of the game in the first half, after Mitsui Shou's three-point goal, did not develop in the direction predicted by Coach Taoka.

Rukawa Kaede's sudden score played a very good effect, which made Rukawa Kaede full of self-confidence in himself, and the next few balls were also a repeat of the old trick, wanting to break through the blockade of the mountain king and mobilize all the Xiangbei players.

But Sanno Industries is not a fool in the end, and he reacted quickly, and Minoru Matsumoto, who defended Mitsui Shou, was not stupid, and in the next few balls, he didn't give Rukawa Kaede a chance to pass an empty position like this.

At the same time, Rukawa Kaede, who broke through into the inner line, also encountered the trap of Fukatsu and the inside filler in both directions.

When facing the bag, Rukawa Kaede passed the ball to Akagi Goken once, but Akagi Gangken was caught up by Nobe Shohiro when he shot, and the shot missed, and the rebound was grabbed by Masashi Kawada who came back.

And the second time, Rukawa Kaede, who also broke through smoothly, tried to pass back to Jinguji Takemichi on the outside, but because he was too concerned about Eiji Sawakita, the pass was too high and flew out of bounds.

Two bursts were fruitless, and Rukawa Kaede planned to play alone, but under the interference of Masashi Kawada's defense, his pick-up collapsed and the rebound fell into Sakuragi's hands. Sakuragi Hanamichi, who got up to shoot, directly encountered Masashi Kawada's "Sky Covering Hat".

The offensive end has suffered continuous setbacks, and the performance of Xiangbei on the defensive end is also average, Masashi Kawada's personal strength is very strong, and at the same time, this guy's vision is also very broad. Mitsui Shou knew that Akagi Gangken couldn't stop him alone, because he would often go to Akagi to help and fill in Kawada Masashi.

[In view of the general environment,

Often at this time, Masashi Kawada can accurately pass the ball to Minoru Matsumoto in the open space, and Minoru Matsumoto completes the finish.

After Jinguji Wudao followed the team to do a few switchbacks, the advantages that Xiangbei had just established were gone.....

And Rukawa Kaede doesn't seem to have a long memory, or rather, Rukawa Kaede tried to figure out a way by himself to break through the defense of the Mountain King, and then made a few more attempts, and after blocking and dismantling in the high position, he passed back to Akagi to finish by Akagi's mid-shot.

Or call Mitsui Shou's blocking, and use Mitsui's offensive threat to break through and shoot. Even Rukawa Kaede has a tough style of playing with a dragon breaking through the layup.

Some of these attempts have succeeded, some have failed, and overall, Rukawa Kaede's performance can be regarded as remarkable.

However, the score of the two teams, however, came to 31:34 as the game progressed, and Xiangbei High School successfully trailed Sanno Industry by 3 points with the efforts of Rukawa Kaede.

But Rukawa Kaede's approach, few people feel that there is a problem.

The reason is also very simple, from the perspective of a point guard, Rukawa Kaede's passing choices and shots are many times

There are no problems with the selection.

It's just that he himself and Akagi and others are just so-so, and in terms of offensive efficiency, they are not as good as the Mountain King. But to say that the king of the mountain resisted the attack organized by Rukawa Kaede? That's not quite, the Mountain King is only holding on to a part.

On the offensive end of Xiangbei High School, Jinguji Martial Arts suddenly became marginal.

The first to discover this problem, in addition to Jinguji Martial Arts himself, there is also the same ace Eiji Zebei, Zebei Eiji was shocked to realize that the ball power of Jinguji Martial Arts suddenly decreased a lot.

Zebei's ability to spot this problem was also because he suddenly felt that his defense had become lighter!

But obviously, the reason why he defends easily is definitely not because Jinguji Martial Arts has become weaker, or because he has suddenly become stronger, but because Jinguji Martial Arts has less ball-holding singles.

"Whew!" Under the basket, Nobe sent the ball into the basket with a hook hand.

In the 14th minute of the first half, the score of the two teams came to 31:36, and Xiangbei High School was 5 points behind Sanno Industry.

When the difference reached 5 points, Shinomiya Tianye in the stands also came back to his senses, looked intently at Rukawa Kaede, who was advancing with the ball at this time, and suddenly laughed:

"Brilliant, but also ambitious, first year."

"For Xiangbei, I don't know if it's good or bad."

"Jinguji Martial Arts has been deprived of a considerable part of the ball in a subtle way, this first grade, I really dare to do it!"

Sinomiya Tianye's words made the people of Lingnan who didn't know why look over. Coach Taoka heard this, glanced at the players around him, and said with some dissatisfaction:

"Haven't you noticed it yet?"

"Think about it, the last time Jinguji Martial Arts attacked with the ball was two minutes ago, right?"

"What about last time? Think about it!"

"Then think about the previous games of Xiangbei High School, the frequency of Jinguji martial arts attacks with the ball! He started almost every ball, right?!"

"Haven't you figured it out yet?"

"This kid Rukawa Kaede used a "reasonable" style of play to deprive Xiangbei Ace of unreasonable ball rights!"

"This first-year is trying to change the distribution of ball rights in Xiangbei!"
