The Jinguji Budo player scored a step-back three-pointer under the defense of Mu Shenyi. Although it could not be said to be the straw that broke the camel's back, it could still be regarded as a heavy blow. Hainan, which was already weak to support itself, seemed even more shaky at this moment.
Although Coach Gao Tou was angry and helpless, after calming down a little, he took a look at the 14-point difference and less than ten minutes of game time in the second half, and stood up decisively to call the last timeout.
When the Hainan players returned to the rest area, coach Gao Tou immediately gathered the players and said loudly:
"Don't give up, there is time, attack slowly!"
"Amu, stop guarding Jinguji Martial Arts. Instead, guard Mitsui Hisashi. Don't let Mitsui Hisashi have the chance to shoot a three-pointer at this point."
"Da Zheng, you go and defend Jinguji Martial Arts. Listen up, Da Zheng. A person who dares not fight a decisive battle with a stronger opponent will never be able to become a basketball player. He does not deserve to have the dream of dominating the country!"
"We in Hainan. Even if we are extremely lagging behind, we must not be discouraged. We must fight our opponents to the death!"
"We have already made such a mistake once, which cost us the title of "King". We must not make the same mistake a second time."
"If we lose again this time, we won't even be able to participate in the national competition!"
"Everyone, cheer me up."
Hainan High School had already lost to Lingnan High School in the previous game and lost its title of "King". If it loses this game again, not only will it lose its title of "King", but it will even lose its right to participate in the national competition. This This is something Coach Gao Tou doesn’t want to face.
But now Hainan's players have gone all out to cope with the game, and coach Gao Tou has no other way but to encourage them.
In just one minute, Coach Gao Tou told the players everything he wanted to say. And adjusted Hainan's defensive formation. In his view, it was unrealistic to defend Jinguji Martial Arts. Instead of sending Mu Senyi, who had the strongest single defense ability, to defend Jinguji Martial Arts, it would be better to let him defend Mitsui Hisashi.
As for the Jinguji Martial Arts side, the effect will not be much different if you let Omasa Shifuku go, and let Mu Shenyi defend Mitsui Hisashi. At least, Mitsui Hisashi will be able to hold the ball as little as possible and weaken Mitsui Hisashi's three-pointers. Ball threat.
At this point in the game, every three-pointer from Shohoku is a reminder, and Mitsui Hisashi cannot be given a chance to take action.
The timeout passed quickly, the players from both teams returned to the court, and the game continued.
Hainan's offense still revolves around Mu Shenyi, and the other players are more of a cover for Mu Shenyi, allowing Mu Shenyi to get a one-on-one opportunity with Miyagi. Hainan's style of play can be said to be impeccable. Jinguji Budo occupied the inside and did not dare to let Akagi deal with Maekawa Daiki alone. He could only watch as Mu Shen suddenly burst into the mid-range and took a wide-open shot.
Even Mu Shinichi would sometimes deliberately break through in the direction where Takenori Akagi was guarding, and use layups to lure Akagi into fouling. After being fooled once, Akagi learned the lesson.
On the other hand, Shohoku High School's offense is still dominated by Jinguji Martial Arts. Shohoku's players have already consumed a lot of energy on the defensive end, and their enthusiasm is average when attacking.
One is because Hainan's defense is too tight, and the players' movements do not get good offensive opportunities. Another reason is that the sound of Jinguji Martial Arts on the offensive end is really too loud, and everyone in Xiangbei can feel it. On the offensive end, except for Mitsui Hisashi who has offensive intentions and physical movement, the others are trying to save some physical energy to focus on defense and maintain the point difference.
But Hisashi Mitsui, who was being fully guarded by Mu Shinichi, felt very uncomfortable. There were no teammates in Shohoku to help him pick and roll without the ball. It was too difficult for him to get rid of Mu Shinichi's guard by himself. Mu Shenyi has the judgment required for clingy defense, and Mu Shenyi's physical fitness is not inferior to Mitsui Hisashi. For a time, even if Mitsui Hisashi wants to catch the ball, it becomes extremely difficult.
This kind of defensive pressure makes Mitsui Hisashi feel like he has returned to the time when he trained in the United States. Although Mu Shinichi is not as black as the American blacks, his physical ability is comparable to that of the blacks Mitsui Hisashi met.
Everyone in Xiangbei turned off the fire, and the pressure on the offensive end naturally fell on Jinguji Martial Arts.
In addition to having a chance to breathe on the defensive end throughout the entire game, Xiangbei's presence was indispensable in every attack. At this point in the competition, martial arts also consume a huge amount of physical energy. Facing Dazheng Sifu's defense, although Wu Dao can still break through the opponent's defense, he has to make more moves when breaking through.
He can no longer simply rely on activation to break through Dazheng Sifu's defense. As the breakthrough movements increase, martial arts' physical energy is also consumed more and more. The consumption of physical energy also leads to a decrease in martial arts' hit rate.
As the game progressed, the point difference between Hainan and Xiangbei slowly changed from 14 points to 10 points, and finally broke through double digits and reached 8 points.
When the score difference narrowed to eight points, Coach Anxi also called a timeout. During the timeout, Coach Anxi did not make any tactical arrangements, but gave the players time to rest and breathe.
At this point in the game, it is no longer a contest of strength between the two teams, but a contest of players' willpower. The players in Xiangbei are very tired, and so are the players in Hainan.
What supports players is their will, not their physical ability.
Jinguji Budo, who took a short break, scored another three-pointer in the first round after returning from the timeout, once again widening the point difference to 11 points. But soon, Hainan responded in kind.
The two teams went back and forth, and the fierce battle caused a period of silence from the spectators in the stands. Only when someone from the two teams scored a goal, these spectators would cheer for a while, but then they would immediately hold their breath and concentrate on watching the ball.
Eighteen minutes into the second half, as Hainan scored again, the difference between the two teams narrowed to 6 points. But soon, Jinguji Martial Arts pressed for time to attack and immediately retaliated.
After that, the two teams took turns on offense and defense several times, but Hainan still couldn't break through the six-point difference.
This six-point difference seemed to be a natural chasm, demarcating the winner and loser.
"Beep~~"
As a long whistle sounded, Mu Shenyi, who was organizing the attack with the ball, and everyone in Hainan looked blankly at the referee's bench. In the last few minutes, neither Xiangbei nor Hainan paused. The Hainan players completely forgot about the score and devoted themselves to the game without noticing the passage of time.
After the whistle sounded, everyone in the stadium looked at the scoreboard. 98:93. Xiangbei High School scored 58 points in the first half, but in the second half, the general actually scored 40 points, which was enough to show Hainan's performance in the second half. Defensive intensity.
Everyone in Xiangbei also broke away from the game at this time. When they saw that the time had passed on the scoreboard, they cheered immediately.
"Won!
! "
"we won!"
The players on the Shohoku bench threw away their sweat towels in cheers and poured into the stadium. They cheered and embraced Mitsui Hisashi and others in their arms. Even Coach Anxi breathed a heavy sigh of relief at this time, and opened his clenched fists. He wiped his wet palms on his trouser legs before slowly standing up, showing a relieved smile.
Unlike the excited and cheering Xiangbei players, the Hainan players looked at the scoreboard blankly and remained silent for a long time. Coach Gaotou suddenly leaned on the backrest, as if he had lost all his strength, and closed his eyes in pain.
"Lost...Did you lose..."
"Not even a national competition..."
Mu Shenyi seemed to be deaf. He could not hear any sounds around him, he could only hear his own heartbeat. The moment the thoughts in his heart emerged, the strong Mu Shen couldn't help but feel a sore nose and his eyes became moist.
After all, he is just a sixteen-year-old boy. The uncle who repeated the grade was just a joke after all.
After all, Coach Gao Tou is used to winning and losing. In competitive sports, how can he never be undefeated? What's more, their Hainan team is not the real invincible king. In national competitions, their Hainan team has never been the strongest team. Coach Gao Tou maintained his final demeanor, leading the players to shake hands with the Xiangbei players one by one, and then led the players to exit quietly.
Mu Shenyi was at the end of the queue, his face covered with crystal drops of water, and he didn't know if it was sweat or tears.
Before leaving, Mu Shenyi took a deep look at Jinguji Martial Arts who was supported by the team members in the center, then glanced at the stands, stared at Shinomiya Tōdō in the stands for a while, and secretly swore in his heart.
"Next time, I will personally lead Hainan and regain the title of king!"
....
The game between Xiangbei and Hainan ended, and coach Anxi led the players back to the lounge.
The game against Hainan really made the Shohoku players shed a layer of skin. After relaxing after the game, Chiba, Mitsui Hisashi and others were so tired that they fell asleep directly. Excessive physical energy consumption, the human body has activated its protective mechanism.
Although Jinguji Budo really wanted to call his teammates up to do some stretching, after calling for a long time, there was no response from the sleeping ones, so he stopped calling. Instead, he asked Ikkigure to lead a few of them. The seniors asked Mitsui and others to stretch their legs, stretch their legs, and rub their muscles to relax.
As for himself, after stretching, he left the lounge. Although the martial arts was also very tiring, it was not to the level of Mitsui Hisashi and others. He still wanted to watch the next Lingnan game, so he took this opportunity to go to the stage. Find Sakuragi and the others.
As soon as Jinguji Martial Arts walked out of the lounge, he met Ayako on the corridor. At this time, Caizi was holding a plastic bag in each hand. One bag was filled with an assortment of drinks, and the other plastic bag contained three large bunches of bananas.
"Hey, Martial Arts, help me quickly and carry the things in."
Caizi was already struggling to carry two bags of things. When she saw Budo, she felt like she had met a savior and immediately shouted.
"With so many things, you bought too much." Budao said as he took the drink and banana from Cai Zi's hand, turned around, pushed the door open, and walked back to the lounge with the things.
"It's not much. They all need to eat. Senior Akagi and the others are exhausted and need to fill up."
"Quick, get some bananas to fill your stomach."
Caiko followed Jinguji Budo. After Budo put down the bag, he quickly opened the bag and broke off three bananas and handed them to Budo. Wu Dao did not refuse, he casually accepted the thank you, and did not forget to flatter him:
"Thank you. Fortunately, the team has you as the manager, and the benefits are much better."
"Nowhere, I just went to buy some things, and Coach Anxi paid for it."
"I'm really lucky to be the manager of the Xiangbei Basketball Team. Even though I'm a girl, I can follow the team and experience the elegance of the national competition!"
"I have to thank you, Martial Arts."
"If it weren't for you, Liangtian and the others would never have been able to defeat Hainan."
Ayako looked at Ryota Miyagi when she spoke. It was not the first day that Ayako and Miyagi met. Miyagi had expressed his feelings to Ayako very early. Although Ayako did not agree immediately, her attitude towards Miyagi was obviously different from other players. Caiko is also well aware of Miyagi's thoughts.
Any high school student who plays basketball has had the dream of "dominating the country", but some people work hard for it, and some people just dream. The existence of Jinguji Martial Arts makes it possible for these team members in Shobei to realize their dreams.
Ayako is not only the manager of Shohoku, she is also the data recorder during the game. She is very clear about the importance of Jinguji Martial Arts to Shohoku. In this game, Jinguji Martial Arts scored a terrifying 55 points. Points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and 4 blocks.
How terrifying his personal abilities are can be seen just by looking at the battle against Hainan. Ayako sometimes thought that if Jinguji Budo played all the early rounds of the prefectural competition, he might be able to average 50 points per game. Just thinking about it felt extremely scary.
"What I said is the result of everyone's efforts. I just have everyone's help."
"You take care of them here. If they get up, let them stretch and I'll watch the next game."
"I'll be back when the game is over."
Wu Dao waved his hand casually and left the lounge. He actually doesn't know what kind of results he has achieved in this game, and he doesn't care, because his goal is not here at all.
After leaving the lounge, Budo followed the corridor to the outfield, walked around in a circle before going to the stands, and found Sakuragi Hanamichi and others.
At this time, the Lingnan game had already started for 2 minutes, and the score between the two teams reached 8:0. Lingnan High School had an absolute advantage, and the situation on the field was simply one-sided.
"Duang!
! "As Shinomiya made a steal and dunk, there was a loud noise in the court, and a burst of warm cheers erupted from the stands.
“ohhhh!
"
"So strong! Sure enough, you have to play like this to be good at basketball!"
"I will definitely be stronger than that guy in the future!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi's attention had long been attracted by the figure in the stadium, and he didn't notice that there was an extra person behind him.
"Youngyouyou, you have a good tone. There is probably only one high school student in Kanagawa who is stronger than Shinomiya."
The voice of martial arts came from behind Sakuragi Hanamichi, causing several people to look up.
"Brother Martial Arts!"
"Jinguji-senpai."
Sakuragi, Haruko and others saw Budo and subconsciously said hello. Sakuragi Hanamichi saw that it was Jinguji Budo, and his face immediately turned into a smile. He grabbed Budo's arm and dragged Budo to his side.
"Target, goal." Sakuragi also knew that he was definitely not as good as Shinomiya Tanoh who was dunking on the court. He smiled and said without shame. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked curiously:
"Brother Martial Arts, you just said that there is someone in Kanagawa County who is stronger than Shinomiya Tanano? Who is that?"
Sakuragi Hanamichi is very curious. In his opinion, Shinomiya is the strongest player in Kanagawa Prefecture. Slam dunking is as simple as eating and drinking. He has never seen anything like him from other Kanagawa players. Law.
Young Sakuragi has a deep obsession with slam dunk.
"Hey, of course it's me!"
Martial Arts touched his chest with his thumb and chuckled. After hearing Martial Arts' words, Sakuragi Hanamichi raised his head in disgust, as if he saw something dirty. The rest of the Sakuragi Legion also looked disbelieving. Only Akagi Haruko nodded slightly, thoughtfully.
When it comes to Jinguji martial arts, only Haruko Akagi, who knows how to play, can understand it. As for Sakuragi and the others, Shinomiya, who simply thinks that dunking is like drinking water, is the strongest.
"Hey, Hanamichi, don't believe it."
"If there is one person in Kanagawa who can beat him, then that person is definitely me!"
Martial Arts put his hands on the railings, looked at the man fighting in the stadium, and said.
When he said this, Wu Dao's expression was not relaxed, but rather solemn.
"This guy can jump even higher!"
In the court, Shinomiya faced the opponent's layup, jumped up to block the shot, and sent a top shot. Seeing Shinomiya's palm easily surpass the top edge of the small black frame in the backboard, Martial Arts The joy of winning just now disappeared in an instant.
Based on Jinguji's martial arts knowledge, the last high school student with such an outrageous jump was named Zion.
