The offense and defense switched, and the ball came to Takeishi Middle School.
Hisashi Mitsui, who was playing street basketball near the baseline, was holding the ball and advancing towards the frontcourt. His advancement speed was not very fast, and he was adjusting his rhythm while carrying the ball.
Hisashi Mitsui glanced at the 6:4 scoreboard on the sidelines. Although the game only started for a few minutes, Takeishi Middle School was also in the lead. But Mitsui Hisashi knew that at this point in time, a two-point advantage was not an advantage at all.
And on the court, Hisashi Mitsui could clearly feel that several teammates other than martial arts were feeling nervous to varying degrees. Hisashi Mitsui knew that it was because of the impact of Shinomiya's goal just now. He passed two people and scored against the defense, which was quite a blow to morale.
"Use this goal to reunite the team's morale!"
Mitsui Hisashi thought to himself and quickly brought the ball to the frontcourt.
The person guarding Hisashi Mitsui was No. 10 from the No. 1 Middle School Affiliated to Tokyo University. He was a young man who used to guard martial arts. However, Shinomiya wanted to defend his martial arts, so he sent him to guard Hisashi Mitsui.
The young man's height is only about 175cm, so he is really at a disadvantage against martial arts, but against Hisashi Mitsui, his height will not become his disadvantage, but will give him a small advantage.
But in basketball, after all, strength is not determined solely by height.
Mitsui Hisashi, who advanced into the frontcourt with the ball, deliberately widened the distance between him and Shinomiya. But Budo was also very smart, silently marching towards the bottom line, pulling Shinomiya's defense, sinking into the bottom line, and then He stopped moving and had no intention of helping Mitsui Shou.
Mitsui Hisashi, who was dribbling the ball, quickly started to break through while martial arts led the defensive force.
Although the No. 1 Middle School Affiliated to the University of Tokyo, like Takeishi, is a team that has entered the national competition, this does not mean that all their players are top players. Facing the ace of the team like Hisashi Mitsui, the No. 1 High School Affiliated to the University of Tokyo No. 10 in the middle of the road instantly turned into a "road" without traffic lights.
Mitsui Shou thought that he could easily get over it.
Mitsui Hisashi was short outside the three-point line. A simple change of direction in front of his body successfully led his opponent out of position. Then he moved unimpeded to the mid-range. While attracting the inside defender, he directly passed the ball to the ground. The ball goes inside. After receiving the ball, Masao Fujii on the inside turned around and shot without thinking, and easily scored the ball.
The score between the two teams became 8:4, and the score was once again stretched to four points.
Shinomiya, who was easily defeated by Takeishi Junior High School by two points and defended Jinguji Martial Arts, frowned slightly, glanced at the No. 10 sharply, and then silently walked to the baseline to catch the ball.
No matter how easy it was to attack or defend, the ball came into the hands of the No. 1 Middle School Affiliated to Dongda University. , or in other words, the ball came into Shinomiya's hands.
I don't know if it's because of his outstanding personal ability, or if the defense of martial arts is really a stretch for Shinomiya Tanano. Shinomiya, who was holding the ball, had no intention of passing the ball. After entering the frontcourt, he immediately let his teammates pull away.
It’s still one-on-one, it’s still individual singles.
But this time, Mitsui Hisashi did not come to help Budo with defense, and then entered the inside line, patted Fujii Masao, and signaled the opponent to go to the mid-range position to prevent the opponent from breaking through, and helped to supplement the defense.
Although Fujii Masao didn't understand what Mitsui Hisashi meant, he still followed Mitsui Hisashi's suggestion and came to the middle distance, standing not far behind Budo.
However, Shinomiya didn't seem to notice the defensive changes of Takeishi Middle School at all. He still slowly came to Budo, and when he was about to approach Budo, he suddenly changed his dribbling rhythm.
Seeing the change in the opponent's dribbling rhythm, Budo immediately realized that the opponent was about to start attacking. He quickly took a step forward and came to Shinomiya Nono, raising his hands flat.
At the same time, Shinomiya Tano also started up quickly. He simply leaned against Budo's chest, then lowered his body and quickly broke through.
But this time, Shinomiya's breakthrough speed was not as fast as before. He felt that the impact when his body just hit Jinguji's martial arts body was different from the previous one. This time's defense, Jinguji Martial Arts simply didn’t use its full strength!
After completing the breakthrough, Shinomiya Tano deliberately slowed down his pace, and at the same time silently observed the position of the martial arts behind him, leaving himself room to react.
Sure enough, Jinguji Budo didn't lose position at all this time. After Shinomiya's breakthrough, he quickly turned around and stuck firmly behind Shinomiya, waiting for opportunities to steal and block shots. Moreover, the path of martial arts was to drive Shinomiya towards Masao Fujii's defensive area.
Sensing this, Shinomiya smiled slightly, suddenly stopped walking, then changed direction, as if taking a walk, and walked towards the three-point line with the ball when he was about to face Masao Fujii.
That's right, Shinomiya Tano actually retreated with the ball at this time.
Jinguji Martial Arts couldn't help but be startled when he saw this, thinking that the other party was aware of his intentions and deliberately gave up this attack. He also slowed down his pace and trotted after Shinomiya Tano toward the outside line.
However, just when Budo was about to approach Shinomiya Tōno, Shinomiya Tōno suddenly exploded the ball while dribbling outward. Then he quickly changed his rhythm, dwarfed his body, quickly turned around and passed Budō in one step, and rushed directly towards the inside. .
"!!!" Jinguji Budo had just relaxed, and the opponent immediately caught the opportunity to break through. By the time Budo accelerated to defend, Shinomiya Tano had already shot from mid-range.
Shinomiya, who felt no defensive pressure, easily scored the ball and then silently ran towards his own half.
"I was careless. I didn't expect to meet such a person in the junior high school."
Wu Dao murmured, wiped the fine sweat from his chin with his hand, and ran directly towards the front court. Jinguji Budo didn't care about the success of this goal. Shinomiya's successful attack would only make Budo's defense more cautious next time.
In the next few minutes, Takeshi Middle School and Dongda Affiliated No. 1 Middle School showed the audience two completely different offensive methods.
On the Takeishi Middle School side, the engines are Mitsui Hisashi and Jinguji Budo. If Shinomiya defends one of them, the attack will be initiated by the other.
Mitsui Hisawa and Budo are both players with shooting ability and broad vision. Their personal abilities are much higher than other players in the No. 1 Middle School affiliated to the University of Tokyo. As long as they are not defended by Shinomiya Tanano, both of them can lead with breakthroughs and shooting. Other teammates launched a comprehensive attack. What is shown is team basketball with Jinguji Budo and Hisashi Mitsui as the core.
As for the No. 1 Middle School Affiliated to Dongda University, it is a proper one-man team, Hero Basketball.
All offenses are taken care of by Shinomiya. The biggest role of his teammates is to help grab rebounds under the basket. However, Shinomiya's shooting accuracy is also very high, and the most important way is to get to the basket to score points. His teammates who grab rebounds have almost become decorations.
Relying on Shinomiya's terrifying personal ability, Takeishi Middle School and the No. 1 Middle School Affiliated to the University of Tokyo were inseparable for a while.
The score of the two teams also changed from 8:6 at the beginning to 27:24.
And among so many rounds of competition, the round in which Jinguji Budo had the best defense was just forcing Shinomiya to make a strong shot. To say that he was restricting the opponent, it was still far away.
The coaches of both teams seemed a little surprised by the stalemate.
The coach of the No. 1 Middle School Affiliated to the University of Tokyo did not expect that Takeshi would not be defeated under Shinomiya Tanano's terrifying offensive. Instead, he would be able to hold his own and even have a small advantage.
Takeishi's coach Masayoshi Anzai was surprised that the opponent actually relied on just one person to fight with Takeishi back and forth. The opponent's performance exceeded the expectations of both coaches.
However, the two coaches have quite a tacit understanding and neither uses timeouts to break the current stalemate.
...
"I can't stop it! Why can't I stop it!"
In the stadium, Jinguji Martial Arts calmly opened his arms and stared at the young man in front of him with his eyes. There were even bloodshot eyes several times. After countless failures, Martial Arts' attention was not as concentrated as it was at the beginning. He Thoughts of one kind or another occurred unconsciously in my mind.
The terrifying strength of Shinomiya Tōdō overwhelmed the martial arts, and his calm mind became like an ordinary junior high school student in such a situation, and his belief was slightly shaken.
He has been away from the court for too long, and the time he has returned to the court is too short. Moreover, the smooth journey after crossing has also made martial arts drift. Suddenly faced with such a powerful enemy, martial arts began to not adapt.
With continuous setbacks, even people like Wu Dao couldn't help but begin to doubt themselves.
