Rukawa Kaede suddenly took the basketball from Miyagi Ryota and launched an attack, which immediately disrupted Hainan's established defensive plan.
Originally, when Mitsui Hisashi was on the court, his movement position was basically between the corner and the bottom corner. The threat to the center of the half court was relatively small.
The only player from Shohoku High School who can launch a frontal attack in the middle of the half court near the top of the arc is Jinguji Budou. As for Miyagi, even if he rushes in, the effect will be very small. There are Takasago and Shigehiro Mori on the inside. With two tall guys here, Miyagi's height is not a big threat.
Moreover, Miyagi Ryota's offensive methods are limited. At least, the offensive methods currently displayed are not enough to make Hainan really pay attention.
But the appearance of Rukawa Kaede was different.
That pull-up jump shot vaguely resembled the appearance of Jinguji Budo when he first entered Shohoku High School. Mu Shinichi on the court and the high-ranking coach on the sidelines all turned their attention to Shohoku, the new first-year player.
"That first grader is Rukawa Kaede from Takeishi Middle School, right?"
"Misui Toshiwa's disciple of Jinguji Martial Arts—Rukawa Kaede!"
"Nice player."
Coach Gao Tou's evaluation of Rukawa Kaede is very good.
On the court, offense and defense alternate.
Rukawa Kaede scored a goal on Hainan's head, but this only made Mu Shenyi look at Rukawa Kaede one more time. Mu Shenyi knew very well that the biggest threat to Shohoku High School was still Jinguji Martial Arts.
What he has to do now is to make good use of every offensive opportunity and score every goal!
Quickly dribbling the ball into the frontcourt, Makoto Shinichi immediately found Muto Masaru on the side. Muto Masaru just hit Miyagi Ryota very well with the ball alone. Makoto Senichi wanted to repeat Muto's old trick.
After the ball was released, in order to draw Jinguji Budo's attention and prevent him from guarding Muto Masaru's position, Mu Senichi immediately moved his steps and ran towards the bottom corner.
At this time, Ichiro Kamizou, who was originally in the bottom corner, quickly alternated positions with Shenichi Mu, and quickly ran towards the location of Miyagi Ryota and Muto.
"Rukawa Kaede, pay attention to Kamizou Ichiro's three-pointer, and don't switch defenses with Miyagi!"
In the midst of the interlaced figures, Jinguji Martial Arts chased Mu Shenyi and quickly spoke to Rukawa Kaede. And not long after he finished speaking, Kamizou Ichiro set up a pick-and-roll for Muto at the top of the arc, holding on to Miyagi Ryota. Looking at Muto Masaru who was breaking through to the inside, Rukawa Kaede, after a moment of hesitation, chose to believe in martial arts judgment and did not pursue blindly.
Miyagi Ryota was delayed in pursuit by Shen Soichiro. Muto, who cut inside, attracted Sakuragi's attention and forced Sakuragi to take off.
But in the air, Muto Masa passed the ball to the side and directly gave the ball to the open Takasago. Takasago took the ball and easily shot and scored near the basket.
The smooth offense was actually organized and launched by Muto Masaru. Miyagi Ryota's matchup disadvantage completely revitalized Hainan's offensive operation. Muto Masa, a Hainan third-year player with little reputation, actually succeeded in replacing Mu Shinichi. Work has become Hainan's ball-holding axis.
"Nice pass, Muto!"
"Good shot, Takasago!"
Everyone in Hainan who was on the offensive encouraged each other and retreated quickly.
"hateful!"
Seeing Hainan and others leaving, Miyagi Ryota kicked the floor to vent his anger.
He found that he had once again become a breakthrough point for his opponent. He had already tasted this feeling when he was in the first grade of high school. Unexpectedly, in the second grade of high school, he would taste it again.
Of course, what irritates Miyagi the most is not that he has become a breakthrough point for the team. What makes him even more irritated is that he has not made a breakthrough in height for more than a year. If...if he can reach more than 180cm, he will definitely It's impossible to let your opponent fight like this!
But the injustice of God is really vividly reflected in basketball. No matter how angry Miyagi is, he can't change his height.
"Organize an attack!"
"We'll switch to box&one later. Kaede Rukawa will defend Ichiro Kamizou alone. Don't let him shoot three-pointers. For the others, narrow the defensive range."
In response to Hainan's offensive method, Martial Arts couldn't just sit back and ignore it at this time. He immediately clapped his hands and shouted loudly to the team members.
Coach Anzai has no intention of replacing Miyagi Ryota, so what Jinguji Budo has to do is to let the players on the court make up for Miyagi Ryota's defensive loopholes as much as possible.
At the same time, switching to box&one can also limit Mori Shigehiro's performance to a certain extent. The Shohoku players gathered in the four corners of the paint area were able to double-team Morishigehiro who was holding the ball at the first opportunity.
However, the problem of box&one is also obvious, that is, the defensive intensity of the mid-range will be greatly weakened. If Hainan shoots from the mid-range, then Xiangbei had better pray that the opponent does not score.
But for martial arts, he can accept this shortcoming.
Because he is confident, Hainan's shooting percentage will not be higher than his!
Moreover, although Sakuragi Hanamichi and Nango could not guard against the coordinated attacks of Morishigehiro, Takasago and others, in the competition for rebounds, he was confident that the two first-year players from Shohoku would never lose to Hainan's inside line!
After receiving the instructions, everyone in Shohoku looked at each other and then nodded. Sakuragi Hanamichi has played a lot of time, and this is not the first time he has played box&one tactics, but many times, he is the one, not the box. one of them.
But after all, after seeing and fighting a lot, Sakuragi can still understand the tactical intentions of martial arts.
On the offensive end, Shohoku's side is still promoted by Miyagi Ryota with the ball.
As the Shohoku players pressed into the frontcourt, Rukawa Kaede's movement suddenly became more active. He is not like Hisashi Mitsui who wanders around the bottom corner and corner position, but takes the initiative to come to Muto Masaru's side to create a breakthrough opportunity for Miyagi Ryota.
Rukawa Kaede knew very well in his mind that if he waited blankly for Miyagi's pass, the opponent's passing choice would definitely give priority to Jinguji Budo.
After all, Jinguji Martial Arts is now the well-deserved trump card of Shohoku High School. Looking at the data of every game since Jinguji Martial Arts entered Shohoku, the word "horrible" is written all over the page.
If you have to wait for your teammates to give you the ball, you can only pick up the charity of Jinguji Budo.
This is not what Rukawa Kaede wants.
Rukawa Kaede's purpose in playing basketball is very pure. He just wants to be the strongest person on the court!
With the help of Rukawa Kaede's pick-and-roll, Miyagi Ryota decisively chose to break through. After all, the opportunity to break through was already in front of him. No point guard holding the ball would give up such an opportunity and choose to pass the ball.
In the past, Miyagi had no choice. He was not as good as Jinguji Martial Arts in singles with the ball, but now he has a choice. With his teammates helping to cover, his chances are much better than Jinguji Budo's chance to break through with the ball!
Rukawa Kaede's pick-and-roll was very tricky. It was not a pick-and-roll from Muto's position, but a pick-and-roll that was deliberately set half a position behind Muto. As soon as Muto turns his head, he will directly face Rukawa Kaede's pick-and-roll. At the same time, Muto will have to run more routes if he wants to get around it.
The difference between the two pick-and-roll methods lies in how the attacking player with the ball wants to play.
If it is a sudden advance, then Rukawa Kaede's pick-and-roll method is optimal, but if it is to shoot from a distance along the three-point line, the first method will be better. The close position will not allow the opponent to forcefully squeeze out the pick-and-roll to pursue. , and in the second method, if you encounter a player with good strength, you can instantly squeeze out of the pick-and-roll and pursue him.
Rukawa Kaede's golf quotient is very high, he knows that Miyagi Ryota will choose to rush forward!
Sure enough, Miyagi Ryota chose to break through and instantly passed Muto Masaru's defense. Even Kamizou Ichiro, who had switched defenses, was passed by Miyagi Ryota and rushed straight into the inside.
Seeing this scene, Takasago and Morishigehiro under the basket moved their positions and double-teamed Miyagi Ryota.
Miyagi Ryota, who wanted to prove himself, was about to take a forceful shot when he heard a familiar shout from the bottom corner on the same side:
"Hey! Pass the ball!"
Without any hesitation, Miyagi Ryota attracted the defense of Takasago and Mori Shigehiro, without even looking back, and directly passed the ball in the direction of the sound.
"Snapped!"
Start with basketball.
At some point, Rukawa Kaede had actually moved from the top of the arc to outside the three-point line in the bottom corner. At this time, the eyes of both Muto Masaru and Kamizou Ichiro were attracted by Miyagi who broke through to the inside. He didn't notice that Rukawa Kaede had already slipped into that position.
Big open space.
Rukawa Kaede simply adjusted his posture, and in the next second, he directly shot a three-pointer. Rukawa Kaede's projection posture is very stretched, gentle and unrestrained, which is quite different from Mitsui Hisashi's "agility standard" and the "wave" of Jinguji Budo.
But the shock to the audience is the same.
"Uh-huh!"
As the basketball accurately hit the net, there was a crisp sound, and the whole audience was in an uproar. After a brief moment of astonishment, the audience let out bursts of exclamations.
"Hey, hey! That freshman from Xiangbei has scored consecutively? He has scored two goals in a row!"
"Three-pointers, mid-range jumpers, this first grader is so strong!"
"In the second half of Shohoku High School, do you plan to use this first-year rookie to attack? Not using the red hair or Jinguji martial arts?"
After the cheers, there were discussions from the audience. Rukawa Kaede's two consecutive goals instantly made him the focus. Of course, it's not that Rukawa Kaede's two shots were so exquisite, it's just that Rukawa Kaede's handsome appearance combined with such skills made him instantly become the center of attention.
"Don't tell me, this kid really has the potential to be a young man."
"The training time is far more than two and a half years, and he looks very good, a standard handsome boy. Even if he doesn't play basketball in the future, he can become a popular singer and rap singer when he debuts."
“The rice dumplings are great too!”
When Jinguji Budo heard that the cheers that originally belonged to him were all given to Rukawa Kaede, he couldn't help laughing and glanced at the three dancing "Rukawa Mikoto" on the stage. Regarding Rukawa Kaede's performance, Budo didn't have any feelings of jealousy or envy in his heart. He was very happy to see the talent coming out of Xiangbei High School in large numbers.
As for the cheers? As long as he wants it, he can get it anytime! That's all.
but.....
"I can understand your ambition."
"But now, I have no idea of stepping down from the ace position."
Wu Dao glanced at Rukawa Kaede's leaving figure and followed quickly.
Alternating between offense and defense, Hainan High School still repeated its old tricks, focusing on Miyagi Ryota's weakness. However, Shohoku also responded. As Shohoku High School shrank its defense, Muto's sudden advance with the help of his teammates' pick-and-roll became useless.
However, Martial Arts seems to have been misled by the box&one tactics adopted by Xiangbei High School. Hainan did not stupidly let the players throw in the mid-range when facing the box&one tactics. Coach Gao Tou also knew that his teammates’ The level of CIC is not that top-notch.
】
And he seemed to have expected that Xiangbei would use such a method and had already made arrangements.
As Muto broke through, he quickly dribbled the ball back to outside the three-point line, and quickly passed the ball to Makoto Shinichi. After releasing the ball, he quickly went to the bottom corner to help Kamizou Ichiro in the off-ball pick-and-roll. Kamizou Ichiro quickly moved up and came to the corner position. Mu Shen passed the ball with one hand, and at the same time blocked Rukawa Kaede who got rid of Muto and chased Kamizou Ichiro.
That is to say, after Mu Shenyi's delay, Shenzong Ichiro successfully got an opening to take the shot. After a slight adjustment, Shenzong Ichiro shot a three-pointer directly behind Mu Shenyi.
standard!
Kamizou Ichiro's shooting action is like a ruthless shooting machine. Endless shooting training has allowed him to form a deep shooting memory. If Mitsui Hisashi's shooting skills are 90% talent plus 10% diligence, then Kamizou Ichiro is 10% talent plus 90% diligence.
Two completely different people, but with the same result.
"Uh-huh!"
There was a soft sound, and the basketball hit the net.
Kamizou Ichiro made a fist with his right hand and showed a confident smile on his face.
"Hum hum....."
"box&one....Xiangbei, you are so arrogant! I have seen such tactics before!
"
Coach Gao Tou had a smile on his face and was happy to see his players score. He knew that their Hainan offense was really in full swing now!
“Return to defense!
Get back to defense quickly!
"
"Stop him, stop him quickly!"
However, the next second, Coach Gaotou's smile froze on his face, and Mu Shenyi's urgent shout came from the stadium.
On the court, Xiangbei High School actually chose to serve quickly after being scored by an opponent. Jinguji Budo didn't care whether Kamizou Ichiro scored or not. The moment the opponent took the shot, he was already running towards the frontcourt.
And Nanxiang also discovered the martial arts of fast break, quickly took the ball to the bottom corner, served directly, and threw the ball towards the front court.
By the time Mu Shenyi and others noticed this, Jinguji Budo had already crossed the center line and successfully received the basketball in the frontcourt.
And behind Jinguji Martial Arts, Mu Shen was the only one who followed closely in Martial Arts' footsteps and refused to give up.
"What's the difference between a person and an empty seat?!"
Wu Dao quickly dribbled the ball across Hainan's three-point line. He looked back at the moon and saw Mu Shenyi who was pursuing him. He chuckled and took off in one step directly inside the free throw line. He quickly glided towards the basket and was thrown away in an instant. Mu Shenyi.
“Bang!
!
"
A "simple" one-step glide and slam dunk inside the free throw line made everyone in Hainan, who was immersed in the joy of scoring a second ago, freeze their smiles on their faces.
The cheers of the Hainan players on the sidelines stopped suddenly, with their mouths open and unable to speak.
Coach Tian Gang in the stands suddenly burst out laughing when he saw this. He looked at Coach Gao Touyi in the Hainan rest area with a mocking look and murmured:
"Have you gotten carried away after scoring a three-pointer? What kind of opponents do you regard Shohoku and Jinguji Martial Arts as?!"
