Syllable......

What was even more desperate than Lin Dong's goal was that Rukawa Kaede sat on the ground with his ass.

The opening of the zone state is not so easy, for those who are not familiar with this state, opening the zone means obtaining super abilities and states, but it also means a huge consumption of their own physical strength, mental power, mental will, and so on.

A genius like Lin Dong, who has mastered the zone 2.0 stage, is likely to adapt to zone as a norm in his usual practice.

Although it is only about 7 percent, he can also fully adapt his body and mental will, which allows him to maintain a full output that lasts at least 10 minutes for a quarter.

But for people like Rukawa Kaede who have just entered the zone and can't even control it, they don't have a full understanding of the adaptability of their physical and mental will, or the harmfulness of the zone.

The zone state that lasted for several minutes in the second quarter had left him on the brink of physical and mental strength, and although there was halftime as a buffer, it was simply not enough to make up for the consumption.

Just now, his physical strength had reached the limit, and he was struggling to support it with the belief that he wanted to defeat Lin Dong, but when he saw Lin Dong's various requests and saw that the hope of victory was no longer there, the collision with Shoichi Takano became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

At this time, he was lying on the ground and could not move, and there was a feeling of dizziness in his mind, and although he was gasping for breath, his consciousness was already quite blurred.

He could hear anxious voices calling out to him, and then someone lifted him to a stretcher and staggered to the sidelines.

There was a buzzing sound in his ears, a cool fan came, and someone smeared something cool on his temples, and after tossing and turning for a while, he felt that his consciousness had regained a little.

When he opened his eyes, Coach Anzai, the team doctor, Ayako, Tsunoda and others were all looking at him with worried expressions.

"It's just a momentary loss of strength, and it's okay when you wake up." The team doctor's voice finally reassured everyone a little.

Rukawa Kaede held up the ground and wanted to sit up, but was held down by Coach Anzai: "Rest in peace, just leave the game to your teammates." ”

"What's the score? How much time is left? ”

Caiko and the others frowned and did not answer, while Rukawa Kaede turned his head to look at the field, but saw that the Xiangbei generals on the field seemed to have lost the glory on their faces before the game at this time.

Akagi, Mitsui, Miyagi, and even Mu Dui, who replaced him, were already gasping for breath, looking exhausted.

Only the red-haired Sakuragi Hanamichi is still active.

Xiangbei's offense, Mu Twilight hit the iron against Ito Zhuo's defensive jumper, and Sakuragi Hanamichi grabbed the rebound on Hanagata's head and made a rebound.

It's just that it doesn't seem to make much sense anymore.

There was no celebration, no cheering, there was a buzz in the stands, and the players in Xiangbei were just barely lifting their spirits and retreating into their own half.

At this time, I turned my head to look at the electronic scoreboard, and I just saw Xiangbei's score jumping, from 56 to 58.

At 96:58, the clock was two minutes into the fourth quarter.

Rukawa Kaede took a deep breath, and the desperate thoughts that had just risen in his heart were completely beaten back.

Losing so much?

At this time, the arena was buzzing, the-for-tat shouts like before, had disappeared, and the game had entered garbage time.

Although the fans in Xiangbei can no longer find a reason to cheer, even the fans in Xiangyang seem to have been too high before, and the victory or defeat has been decided, and now there is not much passion for shouting.

"Lost?" He just opened his mouth subconsciously.

"Lost." Coach Anxi's face did not show any sense of loss, but smiled and comforted: "Losing to this Xiangyang, it is not a crime of war, you have done your best, and your performance has exceeded my expectations, and we have gained a lot in this battle." ”

"Don't worry, I said this is our last chance to challenge Lin Dong, but that's just in Japan...... At the U19 World Championships, I would recommend you and Sakuragi to represent Japan in the U19 World Championships, and at that time, you will still be eligible to challenge Lin Dong. ”

"U19 World Championships?" Liuchuan Feng subconsciously remembered the three people he had seen in the Lloyd's training base, Zhu Fangyu, Sun Yue, and Wang Shipeng, and he couldn't help laughing: "I'm afraid it will be even more difficult than now." ”

Coach Anzai looked at him with some surprise, obviously he didn't expect Rukawa Kaede to clearly realize this at this time, and he didn't expect that with his character, he would actually laugh at this time.

"If you lose, you lose." Rukawa Kaede closed his eyes and lay down on the floor mat, so that he could recover a little more quickly.

A trace of curvature curled up at the corner of his mouth, and Rukawa Kaede said to himself: "At least I really surpassed myself." ”

Coach Anthy was slightly stunned, and then smiled dumbly.

Frankly speaking, although he lost this game, he personally didn't feel that there were any regrets.

Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede have both broken through themselves, and he has already gotten everything he wants, and the only thing he was worried about just now was that he was afraid that Rukawa Kaede would not be able to accept such a miserable blow after he came to his senses.

But the current Rukawa Kaede is no longer the kid who was beaten and cried by Lin Dong in the summer league.

"yes. Although sports competition is judged by victory or defeat, for a real athlete, the pursuit of continuous breakthrough of self-limit is an eternal topic. ”

"Keep pushing yourself, you're far from reaching the limits of your ego." Coach Anzai smiled and gently patted Rukawa Kaede on the shoulder: "I will help you and Sakuragi get tickets to the Nike Basketball Summit, and you will meet him again on the international stage soon." ”

…………

Lin Dong on the field was still galloping.

Since I came to Japan, I have never played a match so freely.

Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede's breakthrough made him feel this kind of exuberance, so even if the game was won or lost, whether it was out of the continuation of his own emotions, or respect for this Xiangbei team, playing the whole game was the only choice.

Of course, in the last few minutes, he didn't exert much force, in fact, after Liuchuan Feng went down, Lin Dong was no longer in the zone, and the normal state also had the strength of seventy percent of the zone, which was enough to deal with the extremely tired Xiangbei.

In fact, Xiangbei has no power to resist.

Whether on the offensive end or on the defensive end, without the containment and initiation point of Rukawa Kaede, Mitsui Shou is at the limit of physical collapse.

The rest of the people in Xiangbei have no one who can provoke the offensive beam, although Sakuragi has been struggling with faith to support, but in front of himself with full firepower, Sakuragi's persistence is undoubtedly meaningless, just like the teenager who was constantly 10 to 0 by himself during the summer vacation, although he can keep up with the pace, but there is no means of limitation.

Mitsui Shou was on the verge of a physical collapse, in fact, he couldn't even run two or three minutes ago, and Coach Anzai seemed to want to replace him, but Mitsui Shou refused.

When he was in Lloyd's training base, Lin Dong actually knew Mitsui Shou's thoughts better.

When he first went to the training base, he wanted to pick a good university with the winter selection, he wanted to play college basketball, and even wanted to enter the professional league in Japan.

But when he returned to Kanagawa after a short period of training at the training base, this guy's idea changed to "I want to go all out in the winter auditions."

Probably because he saw the gap between himself and his profession, and also saw the hidden dangers of his own body.

Those with a genetic history of asthma are indeed not suitable for strenuous exercise.

After winning the Mountain King, he actually had no regrets, and he tried his best to stand until the last moment in this game, probably just to say goodbye to his own high school basketball career.

Akagi Gangxian is no longer brave under the successive impacts of Lin Dong and Hanagata Toru on the inside line, and his physical strength is on the verge of collapse like Mitsui Shou.

However, unlike the guy who was strong on the outside and weak on the inside during the summer league, although the strength of Akagi Gangken in front of him has increased limitedly, his mentality has always been very good.

From the beginning of the game, he positioned himself as the team's interior support, except for those pictures that were limited by himself, and Hanagata Toru was basically in a state of mutual explosion, but in rebounding, blocking and other team team contributions, Akagi had to win by one point.

Lin Dong knew that he had communicated with Fukasawa Dai, and now that Masashi Kawada had gone to the United States, and Sakuragi and Mori Shigehiro, these super insiders were still in their first year of high school, Akagi Gangxian's performance today should be enough for him to win a ticket to Fukasawa University.

Ryota Miyagi...... This is probably the one that Lin Dong has the least impression of the Five Tigers in Xiangbei.

To be honest, talent is limited, and when playing a weak team, his speed may become a beautiful scenery in northern Xiangbei, but when encountering a team like Xiangyang, the role that Miyagi Ryota can play is extremely limited.

On the offensive end, there is neither an inside line, nor a basket on the outside, and the defensive end is the biggest colander in Xiangbei.

If it weren't for the fact that Fuji Zhen needed to be distracted and do many other things, he really had to be in line with Miyagi, and with Fuji Zhen's current strength, one person would be enough to kill him.

In such an absolute desperate situation as Xiangbei, his sense of existence is almost zero, although he still feels that he can still run, but his role is limited, and he is just running blindly.

As for Sakuragi Hanamichi, this is probably the only person in Xiangbei who still has fighting spirit at this time.

The forest phobia at Lloyd's training base seems to have disappeared completely, thanks to his heroic outburst in the first half, led by Kaede Rukawa.

This guy belongs to the type that never looks back, and some obstacles, no matter how high they are, as long as he turns them over once, he will never go back.

In the eyes of the fans, his performance in the entire second half may be in a state of being continuously beaten by himself, but in the eyes of insiders, in the eyes of Lin Dong, this guy is still growing at a rapid pace.

He also opened the zone, but unlike Rukawa Kaede's beginner level, this guy drove a little strangely.

His improvement in the opening zone is in the aspects of ball quotient, sixth sense, physical strength, speed, and reflexes, not the kind of basketball strength that is fully opened.

Lin Dong feels that this is probably related to his usual playing habits, training methods, etc., this guy is indeed not good at attacking, even if it is a fixed point in the middle distance with the highest hit rate, as long as someone interferes, the hit rate can be far away.

But his intuition for defense is constantly improving, so that in the back, he predicted Lin Dong's route several times, and created a lot of trouble for Lin Dong's offense.

This kind of feeling, but the most explosive Rukawa maple in one-on-one did not bring it to Lin Dong.

Swish!

The basketball passed to Lin Dong's hands, and although all the people on the court were no longer moving at this time, Sakuragi Hanamichi instinctively came up for the first time.

saw Lin Dong holding the ball and looking at him with a smile: "It's over Sakuragi." ”

"One more!" Sakuragi Hanamichi's face didn't have the childishness that he had in the summer league when he didn't have a concept of game time.

Sakuragi's voice was very low, and there was no such thing as before, but there was an absolute concentration.

"I know the time," he said coldly, "and there are still more than ten seconds." ”

"At this time, I usually don't fight."

"Stay the course." Sakuragi Hanamichi stared at Lin Dong's eyes: "You said it!" ”

Lin Dong was slightly stunned.

Buzz Buzz ......

"Look over there!"

"I haven't given up on the 10th......"

"Talking!"

"Looks like you're going to fight another one?"

"Ikebana ......"

The buzzing sound on the stadium continued to echo, and many fans in Xiangbei had actually stood up and prepared to leave, but at this moment, everyone involuntarily stopped and looked at this side.

"Whew."

Lin Dong let out a breath and smiled, grabbed the ball with one hand with his right hand and stretched it out to the right side of his body, and then bowed down slightly.

Sakuragi Hanamichi also lowered his center of gravity, and his eyes were in line with Lin Dong.

The two eyes touched, and the air seemed to collide with fierce sparks in an instant.

"Be careful......"

Lin Dong said, and then his body shook slightly, and the right hand that controlled the ball swung with his shoulder.

Sakuragi Hanamichi's center of gravity was slightly pulled to the right, but immediately after that, Lin Dong's swinging right arm made a big pendulum clock to control the ball.

The basketball changed hands to the left, and Lin Dong took a step forward.

Brother Gaoren's breakthrough on the left side, not to mention this game, he has seen it countless times as early as when he was in the Lloyd training base, but most of that can only be seen when Brother Gao and Stephen go head-to-head.

Sakuragi's attention was highly concentrated at this time, the center of gravity of his body suddenly pulled to the left, his feet moved quickly, and his stretched right arm was in front of Lin Dong.

But then he felt that Lin Dong's whole person had leaned against him.

It's so fast!

When the master brother controls the ball with his left hand, it feels like he is running empty-handed.

Sakuragi Hanamichi's eyes were full of fire, barely pounced on Lin Dong's momentum, and moved back close to him, his super fast reaction and the speed of the explosion to the extreme made his defense not out of position at all.

The two were one step away from each other when they started, and Lin Dong was only half a step away from each other when he took the first step, and the defense was not out of position.

But when the second step has been crashed into the Sakuragi Hanamichi defensive position, and then there is a rush and a retreat, although the pace is very fast, but when the offensive and defensive sides are one rushing, one is forced to retreat, the loss has become a foregone conclusion.

Four steps, Sakuragi only followed four steps, and the fifth step had already completely rushed out of his side.

Lin Dong jumped high towards the basket and slammed his hands before the basket's red light came on.

The numbers on the electronic scoreboard jump slightly.

105:60。

Xiangyang wins, the overall champion of the winter selection!
