103 Battle of the Mountain King!
In the locker room, more than a dozen hands were intertwined.
The previous tension on the faces of Fuji Zhen, Hanagata and others has disappeared a lot, and in its place, it is full of fighting spirit.
Lin Dong put his hand on the top and shouted in a low voice: "Victory! ”
"Victory!"
"Let's play!"
…………
"The King of the Mountain! The King of the Mountains! The King of the Mountains! ”
"Zebei! Zebei! Zebei! ”
"Kawada! Kawada! Kawada! ”
As soon as he walked into the players' tunnel, the overwhelming and deafening cheers in the stadium were already echoing in the tunnel, shaking the entire passage.
If it weren't for the fact that he had already done psychological construction, he was afraid that the momentum of the home stadium would have made the average team disarm and timid, as if he had become the biggest villain in the world, as if he was not here to fight, but to accept the people's trial......
But after all, this is Xiangyang, who has just inspired the state, and the smiles on everyone's faces have not changed at all, and they follow Coach Anxi out of the passage.
The scene, which could accommodate 6,000 people, was already crowded at this time, and several cameras set up on both sides of the court, as well as reporters holding microphones and pointing at the camera and talking non-stop, suddenly raised the pressure of this high school basketball game.
NHK's ratings reached the 18% mark of yesterday's peak a dozen minutes ago, and the numbers continue to grow.
There is even a special commentator at the scene, and Hanato Takeuchi, who has previously commented on the Olympic qualifiers in Japan and has been designated as NHK for NBA broadcasting, is in charge of the commentary.
"It is worthy of Sanno Industry, the third consecutive champion of the national competition, the absolute king of Japanese high school basketball, and the audience is full of shouts of cheering for the king of the mountain! This time, the Japan Basketball Association and the NBA have signed a number of cooperation agreements, and the NBA will vigorously support Japan's basketball youth training, and it is foreseeable that there will be more and more teams like Sanno in the future, and Japanese basketball is re-emerging......"
"The starting lists of both sides have been released, and Sanno Industries has sent their strongest starting five tigers, with Masashi Kawada as the starting center......"
"The players on both sides have come in to warm up, they look calm, and they are shooting to warm up their feelings."
"Tsk, Xiangyang's state looks very good, which makes people can't help but want to praise, although it is almost an away game, but it is not disturbed by the audience at all, such a mentality is quite rare for high school students, Xiangyang's No. 13 player is Lin Dong from the strongest basketball empire in Asia, and he was ...... Yikes! ”
Before the broadcast script was finished, the voice of the commentary was already attracted by the scene on the field.
Rumble!
Wow......
At this time, the trial basket has come to an end, and the game is about to begin, but in the half of the mountain king, Masashi Kawada slammed his hands in an air relay, which had already made the already buzzing scene suddenly uproar.
The height of the jump, the stretch in the air, and the viewing of the ball are already excellent, even in the Japanese national team.
With a height of 194 cm and a backhand buckle with both hands, this bounce is really against the sky.
“HOHO!” Masashi Kawada, who landed on the ground, compared the muscles on his arm in the direction of Lin Dong on Xiangyang's side, and made a grimace.
"This guy ......" Hua Xingtou was dumbfounded, and when he originally watched the other party's video, he still felt that the other party was quite stable.
"Is this provoking Lin Dong?" The gentry in the stands couldn't help laughing.
He had seen people who dared to provoke Lin Dong, such as Robles, but the result was a bit miserable, Masashi Kawada......
But the rest of the spectators in the stands obviously didn't think so.
"You deserve to be selected for the NCAA!"
"Masashi Kawada! Masashi Kawada! ”
"Japan's No. 1 center!"
The sound of the audience was loud, and it was overwhelming.
Although the mentality of the people in Xiangyang has long been adjusted, there is still a feeling of being suppressed by the other party's momentum.
"Brother Master! Let's have one too! Sakuragi Hanamichi in the stands shouted wildly, but unfortunately the scene was so noisy that the people on the field couldn't hear it at all.
Fuji Zhen subconsciously looked at Lin Dong, as if expecting him to perform as well, to hedge against the opponent's tidal momentum, but he heard that the referee's whistle for the substitutes on both sides to leave the court had already sounded.
This is pinching a little bit to pour, and it doesn't leave Xiangyang with a chance to return it at all.
Lin Dong just smiled.
This mountain king, who has seen a lot in the videotape, does pose a big threat to Xiangyang as a whole, and he knows that he should enter the state as soon as possible and go all out.
But since the battle on the streets of Yokohama, there have been few things that have made me excited quickly, which is not a good sign for today's Sanno fight.
But if the other party takes the initiative to provoke himself like this, then the feeling will be different.
Lin Dong moved his shoulder bone, patted the flower-shaped shoulder, and had a smile on his face: "I'll jump the ball......"
As the referee's whistle blows, players from both sides take their positions.
It was Masashi Kawada who was in charge of jumping the ball in Sanno Industries, and when he saw Lin Dong standing over, Masashi Kawada squinted his eyes.
Just the performance of this guy seen in the tape is enough to make the whole team of the Mountain King excited, especially the tape of the showdown with NBA rookies!
That's top secret...... The TV station won't let it play.
The NBA rookie who played 145:42 in the friendly game with the Mountain King before, those guys who gave him everything in front of him were all deflated in the hands of Lin Dong!
Provocation?
That's certainly not something for nothing.
This is an unprecedented formidable opponent, much stronger than Takehiko Orimo, who is now the captain of the Japanese national team.
Provocation is just a matter of getting the other person's attention to themselves to interfere with the other person's judgment.
Kawada can lose, and the king of the mountains must win!
Today, only by gathering the strength of the whole team of five people can there be hope of defeating him!
Masashi Kawada smiled and clapped his hands at Lin Dong.
"Come on!"
The referee grabbed the basketball in his hand and tossed it up, and the buzzing noise in the audience was a little quieter at this time.
Hush!
The basketball is thrown high in the air.
The two jumped almost at the same time, but the contrast between them came out all of a sudden.
is also 194 cm tall, but the arm span is seven or eight centimeters apart, and the bounce is even more obvious.
When Lin Dong's arm touched the basketball, Kawada's fingertips were almost only at the level of his elbow.
With such a height and absolute control, it is completely up to you to control where you want to go the racket.
The basketball was instantly slapped in Fujima's direction.
First ball!
Call!
Fujima did not hesitate to hold the ball and rush.
His speed is enough to be called first-class even among defenders, and he is not inferior to Amu.
But just after halftime, Issei Fukatsu, who was wearing the No. 4 jersey, had already intercepted in front of him.
“Defense! Defense! Defense! ”
The whole stadium was shouting the sound of defense.
With a height of 180 centimeters, but with an arm span of 200 centimeters, when unfolded, it suddenly makes Fujima feel like a wall.
Fukatsu Kazunari...... Today's No. 1 point guard in high school basketball in Japan!
Fujima's mind flashed through what Coach Anzai had said earlier.
INTERVIEWER You only need a stage for people all over Japan to know about you.
Hey!
Fuji Zhen's eyes flashed with a gleam, and there was no fear.
Call!
His pause lasted only half a second, followed by an acceleration of his possession.
So fast!
A flash of admiration flashed in Fukatsu Kazunari's eyes.
It feels much more powerful than in the videotape, and there are still too few videos of Fujima Keyiji's competition, especially this year's ......
The defensive distance between each other was half a step away in an instant by Fuji Zhen's sudden acceleration, but Fukatsu Issei's horizontal footsteps that followed closely were already in front of him......
No.
Everyone immediately realized that it was not Fukatsu Issei who was blocking in front of Fuji Zhen, but Fuji Zhen had no intention of rushing over at all, and while rushing forward to mobilize Fukatsu Isseari's center of gravity, a small movement in his hand, the basketball had been thrown high in the direction of the basket at the same time.
Shooting? This is too hasty......
Fukatsu Issei had just had time to turn this thought in his mind.
Dadada!
The sound of hurried footsteps was already sounding in the direction of the basket, and Fukatsu Kazunari suddenly looked back.
The 13th of Xiangyang is Lin Dong!
When he finished jumping the ball, he had already rushed to the basket for the first time, Fuji Zhen was making the ball for him, and the cooperation and tacit understanding between the two was so seamless that he didn't realize their intentions just now.
Masashi Kawada's athleticism is also very amazing, closely following Lin Dong, but at the same time, he just feels a beat slower, but at the same time, under the basket, there is also Eiji Zebei!
Basket two-on-one, and it's front and back!
If it were anyone else, Fujima would not have sent out this air relay.
But that's Lin Dong, even if it's one or two, and facing the two strongest high school students in Japan today, Fuji Zhen believes that he must have a way to deal with it.
Sure enough, just one step away from the free throw line, Lin Dong had already jumped up and directly stunned Masashi Kawada, who had been left behind him.
Jumping over the free throw line and dunking in one step, Japan's top high school students still have a chance to do it.
But in actual combat, play air relay in this position......
Syllable!
The basketball was grabbed by Lin Dong at an incredible height.
It should have been a standard two-on-one, but at this time, only Eiji Zebei could really jump, and Masashi Kawada, who was following Lin Dong, had no room to jump at all, whether it was his own speed or bounce, he was visibly compared to the naked eye.
At this time, only Eiji Zebei is left under the basket, one dozen and one!
"It's so high!"
But he saw that Lin Dong not only jumped high, but also his body was like a pair of wings, and when he reached the highest point, he did not fall, but slid out of the air for a distance.
Eiji Zebei jumped on the spot under the basket, but only to find that the height of his jump was not as high as the height of the opponent's flying buckle.
Jumping late...... In other words, it was the other party's unreasonable take-off and gliding in the air that made him seem too fast!
The big hand that was holding the basketball in one hand swept over his raised hands and smashed down towards the basket.
Rumble!
The opening was an aerial relay, Zebei's block didn't even touch the ball, and the basketball was already dunked into the basket in front of him.
Xiangyang won the opener.
2:0!
Wow!
There was an uproar at the scene, although most of the fans who came were fans of the Mountain King, and there were many people in the crowd who specially brought the rhythm to the Mountain King, but this wonderful goal immediately ignited the passion of the whole game.
Many people couldn't help but cheer.
"Am I right? I felt like I was jumping off the free throw line just now! Is this guy a trapeze? ”
"Hexagonal warrior ......"
"Imperial Destruction Dragon!"
"My son! My son! Lao Lin proudly said to several Xiangyang family members around him that he had a lunch just now, and he had become buddies with two parents, one of whom was actually engaged in the financial industry in Kanagawa......
"Amazing speed and ability to stay in the air, hehehe, Xiangyang, this is giving the king of the mountain a dismount......" Commentator Takeuchi's voice echoed in the microphone.
Loud crowd chatter, microphone commentary, a bit of rousing rap soundtrack, and a team that can pose a threat to themselves as a whole.
This is the feeling of a long-lost arena.
Whether it was the previous county competition, or even the battle on the wild field, Lin Dong had not experienced such a lively and formal scene for a long time.
When I landed, I finally felt a little bit excited.
It doesn't matter who the opponent is...... This is my battlefield!
Competition-type players are probably talking about themselves, and some people just like this kind of noisy arena by nature.
Lin Dong turned around and saw Masashi Kawada staring at him, so he smiled as well, and then shook his finger at him......
Masashi Kawada couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then scratched his head.
Is this guy responding to the muscles he just showed at him?
Frankly speaking, this is also the 'home field' of the Mountain King, and if anyone else does this action against Masashi Kawada, I am afraid that it will be full of ridicule and scolding.
But on the contrary, this guy doesn't feel annoying when he does it, probably because he thought of Kawada provoking others first, which caused a lot of laughter at the scene, and the atmosphere instantly became relaxed and cheerful.
"Hahaha! Let you pretend! also poured his own basket, and the basket is called a slam dunk! Sakuragi Hanamichi laughed from the stands.
"The orangutan king can't do it, obviously they can't catch up when they run together!" Kiyota Nobunaga shouted excitedly: "It's really impatient to dare to provoke our Kanagawa people!" Come on, Brother Gaoren! ”
As soon as Mu Shen looked at Kawada's unconvinced look, he remembered Robles before, and felt that Lin Dong was still very polite to him at the beginning, and he couldn't help but smile on his face: "You said you are a center, why are you provoking him......"
Fuji Zhen is Lin Dong, who rushed back to defend himself, raised his palm.
What about the home field of the Mountain King?
Shine!
Syllable!
The two clapped their hands.
The Mountain King's players didn't seem to be emotionally disturbed by the air relay.
Eiji Sawakita picked up the basketball out of bounds and sent it out, Masashi Kawada held the ball, and the other players actually started to run tactically.
A center with the ball?
This would have been an incredible thing for any other team, but it seemed to be a matter of course for the King of the Mountain.
Quite relaxed pace.
Although he is 194 cm tall, Masashi Kawada's ball control ability is not weak, as a senior year of high school and still playing defender, Masashi Kawada played all five positions on the court.
Point guard? He can too.
Xiangyang's side put forward the 131 area joint defense that he had used in the previous fight against Fengyu, and Lin Dong met Kawada Masashi.
But in the next second, the ball was immediately distributed to Fukatsu Issei, and Kawada took advantage of the situation to kill the basket.
At this time, Eiji Zebei was going down to the left side of the baseline, and Lin Dong turned to defend on the left side, and went to the opposite side of Kawada from the flower shape.
Fujima is up to Fukatsu Kazunari.
But the opponent didn't stick to the ball, a ground pass, and the ball was distributed to Minoru Matsumoto, who was on the weak side of the defense.
Minoru Matsumoto, who was standing three points outside the bottom line, made a feint and easily shook up Shoichi Takano who pounced and blocked it.
Hit the ground, the body moved sideways, and the distance of only one step had already made Shoichi Takano's supplementary defense empty, followed by a three-point shot without waiting for Takano to turn around.
Masashi Kawada had already been stuck in the shape of a flower under the basket, but the basketball 'swish' had fallen into the net.
The King of the Mountain overcomes, 3:2.
Lin Dong has been observing, in fact, just one ball can already see the general offensive ideas of Sanno Industry.
He didn't use the imaginary routines and tactics, but relied on his own ability.
Avoiding their own defensive strength on the offensive end, no matter which side they are on, they will attack from the other side, which is also the choice of most teams when facing Xiangyang before, but it is not as casual and natural as the King of the Mountain.
And in the case that everyone in the mountain king has quite a good finishing ability, he can rely on such a one-on-one confrontation to pull away and fight, and he can also pull out the wrong position at any time to hit Shoichi Takano.
Compared to Lin Dong, Fuji Shin and Hanagata Toru, and even Hasegawa, Shoichi Takano can undoubtedly be regarded as a defensive hole in Shoyang, his pace is too slow, and he is slightly lacking in experience.
This is something that can't be helped, Gao Ye is already the strongest among the other players left in Xiangyang.
In terms of the inner line, Xiangyang is also a disadvantage.
Although there are three elders here, the mountain king has a pull, and there is also Kawada Masashi.
It can be seen from the rebounding position just now that Hanagata is not at the same level as Masashi Kawada in defense, and his strength is too much worse.
And Shochi Takano was attracted out by Minoru Matsumoto, and even Hasegawa, who was supposed to help defend the basket, was glued by Satoshi Ichikura, and he didn't even squeeze in the position of competing for rebounds, and easily dissolved Shoyo's long formation.
Perhaps that's why Minoru Matsumoto dared to shoot easily from outside the three-point line just now.
The best sixth man of the Mountain King......
In fact, the lack of an outside line is the first weakness of Sanno Industry, which is also the main reason why Coach Anzai arranged the regional joint defense before the game, which is to shrink the basket and use Xiangyang's height to help Huaxingtou fight against the inside advantage of the Mountain King, instead of letting Lin Dong spend his physical strength on the interior defense.
You can look at Minoru Matsumoto's shot just now...... It seems that it is not just Kawada under the basket, which does not rule out that they may have practiced a three-point hand after receiving special training from the Basketball Association and Takehiko Orimo.
Defensively, you can watch a few more balls......
Lin Dong raised two fingers at his four teammates, which was the second set of offensive tactics arranged by Coach Anxi before the war.
It was really touching to see the news that the father of the stall in Nanning, Guangxi was knocked out in front of his own child...... Some time ago, I almost went to set up a stall, but after getting in touch with it, I really understood that the demon was in the world
