The cruelty of basketball is vividly reflected in the game between Takeishi Middle School and No. 4 Middle School.
After Jinguji Budo of Takeishi Middle School successfully scored a goal in the opening game, Takeishi Middle School's offensive was opened up by Budo alone. On the offensive end, all the ball rights of Takeshi Middle School were concentrated in the hands of Jinguji Budo, while other Takeshi players rushed to the inside to compete for rebounds.
Martial Arts' offensive method is also quite simple. They push the ball into the frontcourt at a controlled pace, then go into the mid-range against the defenders of the fourth center, and finally finish with a jump shot.
The height difference between the player defending Wu Dao and Wu Dao is too much, and his defense has no way of interfering with Wu Dao, who ends with a jump shot. A good opening game turned Takeshi Middle School into a personal shooting training.
It’s not like the people in the Fourth Middle School didn’t try to limit Wu Dao’s shooting, but except for the center who had to guard the inside, the other players had a big height gap with Wu Dao. The defenses were changed one after another, and double teams were also added. Another one, but facing Wu Dao's jump shot, there was nothing he could do.
There are also smart people who try their best to prevent Budo from passing halftime and launch an encirclement and suppression of Takeshi in the backcourt. However, Budo is not a fool. With his height of about 185cm, he can easily knock the basketball out of the hands of the defenders when the encirclement and suppression comes. The ball is passed from the top of the head and the ball is released quite easily and comfortably, without feeling any pressure at all.
His outstanding height made it impossible for Wu Dao to shoot or pass in this game.
No. 4 Middle School was not only completely beaten by Takeishi Middle School on the defensive end, but also suffered setbacks on the offensive end. The No. 5 player in the fourth center is a defender, but this defender is restricted by martial arts. Even passing the ball requires a lot of energy to have a chance to play the ball in front of martial arts.
As for shooting and breakthrough, there is no hope at all. The tall martial artist only needs to stand in front of the opponent and raise his hands to easily block the opponent's shot. As for the breakthrough? Not to mention how rich Wu Dao's defensive experience was, Wu Dao's pursuit speed alone had already made the No. 5 in No. 4 despair.
The offensive end was blocked and the defensive end was blown away. In the opening game, fifteen minutes into the first half, the score between the two teams reached 41:12. It was a one-sided situation. As long as the audience was not stupid or blind. , everyone knows that this game has ended in suspense early on.
At this point in the game, Budao made 10 of 18 shots, had 8 rebounds and 1 assist, and successfully scored 20 points. His scoring was quite efficient. And when Takeishi Middle School once again relied on Budo's shooting to score 43:12, and the point difference successfully opened to 30 points, Masayoshi Anzai finally made a substitution and replaced Budo alone.
After Wu Dao came off the field, the game continued, but Wu Shi Middle School's offense began to flourish in many directions, and the situation was still one-sided.
"Martial arts, you did a good job, 11 of 19 shots, the hit rate is close to 60%. The training effect during this period is still good."
In the rest area of Takeishi Middle School, Masayoshi Anzai stood up to greet Budo as he walked off the court. He threw a sweat towel to Budo and said with a smile.
Wu Dao, who was walking off the court, was not only not happy when he heard this, but his face was stunned and looked a little ugly.
Is the shooting percentage close to 60% high in actual combat? Very high!
But this cannot be said for martial arts, because in this game, he did not feel too much shooting pressure. In other words, his shooting intensity today is no different from that in normal training. The only difference is In this game, Wu Dao acted as a defender and only needed to control the ball.
The hit rate of 60% in actual combat shooting is very high, but if this hit rate is achieved in training shooting, it is quite average, at least according to the perception of martial arts, it is very average.
If there is only this hit rate in a game of such intensity, in the event of a high-intensity game, this hit rate may be halved, or even completely dive, and evolve into Takeshi Green, a match with Hisashi Mitsui. Scored 54 points.
This is not a good sign.
Masayoshi Anzai looked at the frowning Jinguji Martial Arts and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Only players who have requirements for themselves can grow. He just praised martial arts on the surface, but the thought in his heart was a reminder.
Obviously, Wu Dao himself realized his problems and did not indulge in the highlight performance of scoring 22 points in 15 minutes. If Budo didn't realize his problems but was complacent, then Anxi Zhengyi would never give Budao a good look.
Now the performance of martial arts makes Anxi Zhengyi very satisfied. Since martial arts is already reflecting on it, he doesn't mind being a good guy.
"Martial Arts, don't be sad, we still have many games to play, you have to focus on the next games."
Anxi Zhengyi enlightened, and then set his sights on the court.
"Yes!" Wu Dao nodded, wiped his sweat with a sweat towel, and then casually placed the sweat towel on the stool next to him.
A first-year team member wanted to put away the sweat towel that martial arts wiped with. When he took the sweat towel, he suddenly felt a strange touch.
It's obvious that the martial artist has just wiped off the sweat, so why is the sweat towel so wet? The opponent subconsciously looked towards Martial Arts and found that the Martial Arts jersey sitting on the bench was still dry, and there were only a few beads of sweat on his arms and forehead.
The match lasted for fifteen minutes, and Wu Dao didn't even break a sweat.
...
On the court, not long after Budokai came off the court, Mitsui Hisashi began to exert his strength. Compared with the single offensive method of martial arts, Mitsui Hisashi's style of play seems a bit fancy. Shooting, sudden points, and air cuts, Mitsui Hisashi thoroughly demonstrated almost all the conditions required for a trump card.
Even though Mitsui Hisashi's height is not the most outstanding, on the court, he quickly became the focus of the audience.
In the stands, Lingnan High School coach Shigeichi Taoka was also completely attracted by Mitsui Hisashi's performance.
"Compared to the number 15 just now, the number 5 of Wushi Middle School is more worthy of attention."
Coach Tianoka whispered, opened the briefcase he carried with him, took out a stack of information and started to read through it. Not long after, he pulled out two pieces of paper from a pile of information, held them in his hands and read them carefully.
These are two information profiles. There is a small photo in the upper right corner, which is the profile of Mitsui Hisashi and Jinguji Budo.
"Hisuma Mitsui from Takeishi Middle School...he averaged 34.3 points per game in his second year of junior high school!"
"Whether it is breakthroughs, shooting, or passing assists, they are all very good, with no shortcomings at all."
"Players like this are what our Lingnan High School needs!"
"Compared to that number 15..."
"Jinguji Martial Arts, he is almost 185cm tall, and he is still in the first grade! He is a promising center forward."
"But shooting from the outside is too weak. If you are afraid of physical confrontation, you won't be able to play basketball well. Anzai's training path is wrong!"
"A young coach can't handle a player like this!"
Taoka Shigeru read the two pieces of information, then folded them carefully and put them in his breast pocket. Seeing that the game situation did not change, he sat on his seat slightly bored and stared at Mitsui who was active in the field. Touhou, the more he watched, the more satisfied he became. He even began to imagine the scene in his mind after Mitsui Touhou joined Lingnan High School in the future. He would laugh "hehehe" from time to time, scaring everyone around him to stay away from him.
