The offensive and defensive transitions between Lingnan and Shohoku were quite fast. Shortly after Shohoku High School counterattacked, Lingnan's Shinomiya Tano turned around and responded.
Between offense and defense, people watching the ball can easily see the gap between Shinomiya and Ryumasa Oda.
On the defensive end, Shinomiya Tano was pushed away. With such strength conditions, it was impossible to block Shinomiya Tōno's attack.
On the playing field. Shohoku's freshmen wanted to fight back. After receiving the basketball in the backcourt, Kiyota Nobunaga immediately brought the ball into the frontcourt. Although his speed with the ball was very fast, other Shohoku players entered faster than him. The frontcourt is completed.
Nango Koichiro, Rukawa Kaede, Katsumi Ichiro and Oda Ryumasa, these four people all move at very good speeds, so when Kiyota Nobunaga prepares to speed up, there is no disconnect in the team's movement connection.
Kiyota Nobunaga, who entered the frontcourt, faced Fujima Kenji's defense and directly bombed the ball in an attempt to break through. As the ball dropped rapidly, Kiyota Nobunaga flashed his figure and tried to pass through Fujima. However, Kiyota Nobunaga's men passed by. , basketball, but was left behind him.
The moment Kiyota Nobunaga dropped the ball and broke through, Fujima had already understood Kiyota's intention and took action directly to complete the snatch.
Fujima, who successfully stole the ball, picked up the basketball and quickly advanced towards the frontcourt with the ball. At the same time, Shinomiya Tano and Sendō also quickly crossed the center line, and cooperated with Fujima, heading towards Shohoku from three directions. Rush from the backcourt.
Although Rukawa Kaede, Katsumi Ichiro and Kiyota reacted in time, when they caught up, Shinomiya had already crossed the three-point line and received Fujima's pass.
In this position, no one can stop Shinomiya's attack. As Shinomiya Tanoh scored another dunk, Reinan High School led the Shohoku first graders by 4 points 6:2.
In just over a minute, Lingnan showed overwhelming strength, and behind Shinomiya's continuous dunks, he also showed his terrifying dominance on the high school court, and this also made the court A thick shadow shrouded the hearts of the freshmen.
"So... so strong!
"That guy from Lingnan High School is really strong! His dunk action is smooth and full of power. It's so different from the dunk-free players I've seen before."
"Is that the guy who is as famous as Jinguji-senpai? He is really awesome. How could we win with first-years like us?" The strength shown by Shinomiya Tano made the first-year freshmen in Shohoku start to feel guilty. .
Most of the freshmen who had just come from junior high school had only heard of Shinomiya No. 1, but not many had seen him play.
The terrifying strength of Shinomiya Tano also left a deep impression on everyone. In the court, Kiyota Nobunaga, whose mistake was intercepted, has already received the serve from his teammate in the backcourt. Although Katsumi Ichiro and Rukawa Kaede did not say anything, Kiyota Nobunaga also felt a little guilty for his mistake.
Originally, the score difference had a chance to be controlled within one goal, but now, the score difference is four points, and it feels different.
Nobunaga Kiyota, who entered the frontcourt with the ball, was deeply wary of Kenji Fujima. Before Fujima could get close, Nobunaga Kiyota quickly passed the ball to Katsumi Ichiro on the side.
...The defender's Shinomiya was very quick, and was in front of Katsumi Ichiro in an instant. A big hand directly covered Katsumi Ichiro's sight, and at the same time, his body was directly attached to Katsumi Ichiro's body.
Shinomiya did not take the initiative, but his defensive position directly compressed Katsumi Ichiro's dribbling gap.
Unable to get enough openings, Katsumi Ichiro could only forcefully drop the ball and try to use his strength to create some openings for himself. However, as soon as his power was released, a huge and obscure force came from Shinomiya's chest. Sent back.
The terrifying force hit Katsumi Ichiro unsteadily, he staggered back and lost control of the basketball.
"Thank you!" Shinomiya grabbed the ball in his hand, chuckled and quickly ran towards the frontcourt with the ball.
After the ball was intercepted, Katsumi Ichiro looked at the referee on the sidelines. Seeing that the referee had no reaction, he spread his hands in confusion and gave his face a big slap.
"?", in his opinion, Shinomiya Tano obviously took the initiative, but why didn't the referee blow the penalty?
But what Katsumi Ichiro didn't know was that in the eyes of the people around him, the attack he just made was that he took the initiative to push Shinomiya Nono, but he couldn't push it and was bounced back. This was especially true in the eyes of the referee.
Shinomiya, who was on a single fast break, made a reverse basket under the pursuit of Rukawa Kaede. Not only did he avoid Rukawa Kaede's defense, but he also sent the basketball into the basket.
At 8:2, the score difference between the two teams came to 6 points. Seeing that the score difference was widened, Oda Ryumasa seemed a little unable to accept it. When Kiyota Nobunaga once again entered the frontcourt with the ball, he couldn't help but remind: "Don't do it alone! Pass the ball!"
"Pass it in!" As Oda Ryumasa spoke, he reached the mid-range and leaned against the basket, raising his hand to ask for the ball.
In his opinion, these few points lost were the result of players on the outside not thinking about passing and running, but thinking about their own offense.
In this era of basketball, inside players are often one of the core of the team's offense. After all,
"The closer you are to the basket, the easier it is to score." This basketball concept has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Oda Ryumasa, who plays inside, naturally believes that he is the core of the team's offense.
Kiyota Nobunaga originally planned to call his teammates to pick and roll to break into the inside, but suddenly saw Oda Ryumasa talking like this and asking for the ball, so he did not hesitate and directly lobbed the ball to Oda Ryumasa in the mid-range.
It's not that he agrees with Oda Ryumasa's words, but he wants to see how much Oda Ryumasa is, and dares to ask for the singles position of Hanagata Toru of Lingnan High School.
Now in his third year of high school, Toru Hanagata is 19 and weighs 83kg. He looks very tall, and his muscle ratio is far inferior to Takenori Akagi and Jun Uozumi, who are both insiders.
But the thin flower shape has characteristics that neither of them have, that is, movement and wingspan.
From his debut to the present, Kiyota Nobunaga has never considered seeking a breakthrough from the inside. In his opinion, neither Nango Koichiro nor Oda Ryumasa can get any benefits from their opponents!
But Oda Ryumasa didn't believe in evil, so Qingtian planned to help him.
"Bang!" The basketball started, and Ryumasa Oda caught the ball with his back to the basket. ...At the same time, Hanagata Toru had also come behind him, hunched over slightly, raised one hand high, and held Oda's lower back with the other, preventing Oda Ryumasa from turning around comfortably.
The defense of these Lingnan players is very clean. Although they are inside players in the 1990s, these people are still students after all. They did not actively exert force against Oda's flower shape, and just waited for Oda Ryumasa to attack.
Soon, Oda Ryumasa, who was holding the ball, made a move. Oda Ryumasa, who was holding the ball with his back to the basket, turned slightly to the right and feinted. When the ball fell, he ducked and quickly turned to the left to break through.
Oda Ryumasa's footsteps were quite nimble, and he crossed the flower shape in an instant and rushed towards the inside. After Oda Ryumasa broke through, Uozumi Jun on the inside did not go to cover up the defense. He just glanced at Oda Ryumasa, turned around and stared at Nango Koichiro, squeezing Nango out of the paint area.
Oda Ryumasa, who had completed the breakthrough, didn't doubt him when he saw this. He just thought that Uozumi was afraid of him passing the ball, so he didn't think much about it and directly combined the ball for a layup when he entered the basket.
But as soon as the basketball was raised above his head, a white arm stretched out from behind his head and slapped the basketball, knocking the ball away.
The basketball hit the floor outside the baseline and flew out of bounds. Oda Ryumasa turned his head in astonishment and found Hanagata standing behind him. He pushed up his glasses, glanced at him indifferently, and then fist-bumped with several teammates who gathered around him to celebrate.
Although Hanagata's block shot knocked the ball out of bounds, Hanagata's big block still dealt a heavy blow to Shohoku's morale.
Off the court, Sakuragi Hanamichi saw his teammate being blocked. Instead of feeling sorry for his teammate's failure to score, he laughed and cursed.
"Deserved it." This kid's mentality astonished the teammates around him. Before Sakuragi, people in Shohoku had never seen anyone curse their teammates like this.
Frontcourt baseline ball. On Shohoku's side, Oda Ryumasa was responsible for the execution. In addition to the compact defense of Lingnan's players on the inside, the defense on the outside was relatively loose. At least, neither Sendō nor Shinomiya nor Kenji Fujima wanted to do anything. It means to grab the position and steal.
Under such defensive pressure, Oda Ryumasa's ball became extremely easy. With a long pass, the ball was given to Rukawa Kaede on the outermost side.
The reason why it was given to Rukawa Kaede was just because Sendō was the most lax in defending Rukawa Kaede. It wasn't until Rukawa Kaede got the basketball that Sendō slowly stood in front of Rukawa Kaede.
With a calm and relaxed look on his face, he didn't take the game seriously at all, and at the same time, he didn't take Rukawa Kaede seriously either.
"First grade boy, come here!" Xiandao raised his finger towards Rukawa Kaede and said with a smile.
Rukawa Kaede had sent a wonderful pass in front of him before, leaving some impression on Xiandao, but that was all.
Rukawa Kaede received Sendao's provocation with a calm expression on his face. Standing outside the three-point line, he suddenly raised the ball to look at the basket.
Seeing this, Sendō took a step forward and closed the distance. However, at the same time as Sendō adjusted his defensive position, Rukawa Kaede made a false shot and dropped the ball directly to break through, coming directly to Sendō's side.
...Rukawa Kaede's breakthrough speed is very fast, and the timing of breakthrough is also very good. If it were another person, it would be really difficult to keep up with Rukawa Kaede's movements.
But unfortunately, what he faced was the genius of Lingnan High School. Although Sendō was on the upper step when Rukawa Kaede broke through, the moment Rukawa Kaede collected the ball, Sendō had already reacted, and when Rukawa Kaede passed him, Sendō had already completed his turn around and quickly caught up with Rukawa. Kaede used his body to block Rukawa Kaede's path, preventing Rukawa Kaede from having a comfortable shooting angle.
Sendō's defense was very successful. Rukawa Kaede rushed from the three-point line to the free throw line without a suitable shooting angle.
Sensing that the opportunity was not good, Rukawa Kaede made an emergency stop to complete the ball. At the same time, he quickly looked at Nango Koichiro inside, and the hand holding the ball moved in the direction of Nango.
"Do you want to pass the ball?" Rukawa Kaede's previous wonderful pass was very good. Seeing this scene, Sendao subconsciously stretched out his hand to block the passing path of Rukawa Kaede and Nanxiang.
However, as soon as he made a move here, Rukawa Kaede suddenly collected the ball and shot a fadeaway jumper. It was not until the moment the basketball was released that Rukawa Kaede retracted his eyes and looked at the basket.
"Huh?!" Rukawa Kaede's sudden fadeaway jumper was a bit unexpected. By the time he was about to intercept, the basketball had already flown towards the basket.
Rukawa Kaede's mid-range shot was quite accurate, and the basketball hit the board directly into the net, stopping Shohoku High School from losing points.
"Nice shot! Rukawa Kaede!"
"Well done!" Seeing Rukawa Kaede score, the Shohoku rest area burst into cheers. Most of the team members cheered for Rukawa Kaede on the field, only Sakuragi Hanamichi pouted with an unhappy look on his face, biting his sweat towel angrily.
"Damn it! This stinky fox knows how to show off!"
"If this genius hadn't been on the court, there would have been no chance for this stinky fox to perform!"
"Asshole! Asshole Oda! How dare you question the strength of this genius!" Sakuragi Hanamichi was still showing off in Airflow Kawafeng, but the next second his hatred was precisely targeted at Oda Ryuumasa. When he thought of Oda Ryuumasa, Sakuragi became even more angry. , the sweat towel in his hand has been bitten and torn by this kid.
Jinguji Budo, who was sitting next to Sakuragi, noticed that Sakuragi was not in a very good mood, so he smiled and joked: "Sakuragi, do you want to go to the hospital to get a rabies vaccine?"
"I think you are sick! Isn't it too late to fight now?" Upon hearing this, Sakuragi Hanamichi angrily threw the sweat towel towards the stool and complained: "Brother Martial Arts, that Oda is obviously so Weak, why does the coach still let him play?!"
"I'm obviously so strong, why do I have to sit in the audience!" Wu Dao couldn't help but roll his eyes at Sakuragi after hearing this. It's true that Oda is weak, but Sakuragi is strong?
In some respects, it may be true, but Hanamichi Sakuragi talks about being strong, and it is obviously not about protecting the basket and defending...
"Just watch quietly for a while. Coach Anxi asked you to play later. Isn't it just to take care of you?"
"Coach Anxi, I am optimistic about you. Letting Xiaotian play first is to give you a chance to see the characteristics of the Lingnan players!"
"When you go on the court later, you will play inside. Remember, Sendō and Shinomiya, let your teammates on the outside defend. Wait for the opponent to break through, and then you can cover the defense. At other times, you should pay more attention to the flowers and shapes inside. Just let the fish live.”…
"Don't be like Oda Ryuumasa and pick an opponent who is not suitable for you." While Budo and Sakuragi Hanamichi were talking, Lingnan High School had already launched a new round of attack.
Lingnan's positional battle was very unique. The four players spread out and left a 1/4 field for Shinomiya to play singles with the ball.
Looking at the whole country, only Lingnan, a high school, has implemented this superstar style of play so thoroughly. Even if the other teams are separated, they are not so far apart.
The basketball was in the hands of Shinomiya Tano, and the other Lingnan players were involved in the backlog of defense in the same half area.
Oda Ryumasa was alone and faced Shinomiya's ball-holding attack. This time, Shinomiya didn't seem to intend to use his body to force himself. After a series of crotch moves, he switched to two back dribbles, causing Oda Ryumasa's defense to sway left and right, and then suddenly accelerated with a hesitant step, and instantly ejected. Started, in the blink of an eye, he passed Oda Ryumasa's defense and went straight to the inside.
"Damn it, don't look down on me!" Oda Ryuumamasa yelled and chased Shinomiya. Miraculously, he caught up with Shinomiya at the free throw line and directly reached out to pull the arm of Shinomiya who had already joined the ball. superior.
But to everyone's surprise, Shinomiya, who was clearly being pulled by his arm, didn't even slow down much. He dragged Oda Ryuumasa forcibly, took two steps into the air, and pushed away Nango Koichiro, who was defending in the air. After staying in the air, a small hook sent the ball into the basket.
Shinomiya's goal immediately silenced the Shohoku rest area. Even Coach Anzai couldn't help but sigh after a brief moment of surprise: "It's true that a team like Lingnan can choose to play superstar basketball. Shinomiya's strength... is not the same as that of ordinary high school students." Dimensional."................................
