Jinguji Budo only dominated the offense for two rounds and easily scored 5 points.
The terrifying scoring ability ignited the enthusiasm of the audience. They watched Pingtan's offensive and defensive transitions a lot, and suddenly saw Jinguji Martial Arts' personal performance, and the audience immediately became excited.
Cheers poured into the stadium like a tsunami.
The Sanwang players, who had just been relieved because their team was ahead, felt the familiar pressure again at this moment.
"Jinguji Martial Arts..."
"Sure enough, Xiangbei will still have to rely on him to score points after all!"
“In less than a minute, our lead was easily erased.”
“With the basketball in his hands, he almost never misses an opportunity!”
"Our defensive focus still has to be on him."
At the side of the court, Goro Domoto stood up and walked to the sidelines with a solemn expression. Although the playing style of Shohoku High School has changed slightly before, it is obvious that it is impossible for Shohoku to completely abandon Jinguji Martial Arts as a scoring point.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Domoto Goro knew that no one in Sanno Industries could stop Jinguji Martial Arts' score.
Even a slight restriction seems to be impossible at present.
The double-teaming of Sawabita, Fukatsu and Kawada Masashi has not been tried before, but Jinguji Budo relies on his tall figure and excellent mid-range shot, and he can complete the shot before the double-teaming is completely formed.
After all, the physical fitness of Jinguji Martial Arts is still too supermodel.
With a height of over two meters, dexterous footsteps, and precise shooting ability, such a person is just like cheating when he appears on the high school court.
Regarding Jinguji Martial Arts, Goro Domoto had only one solution...
"Nobe!"
Goro Domoto on the sidelines shouted to Shohiro Nobe who was running when the players were advancing with the ball. When Nobe Masahiro cast his gaze, Goro Domoto pointed at the Jinguji Martial Arts in the field and signaled.
Nobe Masahiro looked where Domoto Goro was pointing, nodded, and then followed the team members to quickly take up positions in the Shohoku frontcourt.
Kazunari Fukatsu, who was approaching the top of the arc with the ball, observed Shohoku High School's defense and made a pick-and-roll gesture. When Rukawa Kaede saw the opponent calling for a pick-and-roll, he subconsciously turned his head and looked behind him, wanting to see who would run over to pick-and-roll, and at the same time, prepare to bypass the pick-and-roll player in advance.
But the moment Rukawa Kaede turned his head, Fukatsu Kazunari, who had maintained a high center of gravity a second ago, directly accelerated his breakthrough, quickly passed Rukawa Kaede, and then made a pull-up jumper at the free throw line and threw the ball.
Skillful and smooth shooting movements make the basketball fly extremely straight.
"Whoa!" With a soft sound, the basketball hit the net.
"..." Rukawa Kaede wiped the sweat from his chin, and felt a little annoyed when he looked at Fukatsu Kazunari who was returning to defense at this time.
The past few rounds of Kazunari Fukatsu's offense have relied on pick-and-rolls and then breakthroughs, which made Rukawa Kaede forget that the opponent actually had excellent one-on-one breakthrough capabilities. In terms of breakthrough ability alone, Kazunari Fukatsu's attack power may still be higher than Kenji Fujima's!
An opponent of this level would not allow Rukawa Kaede to relax in the slightest.
"Don't worry, Rukawa Kaede."
"Give me the ball and I'll get the score back."
Rukawa Kaede did not immediately respond to Jinguji Martial Arts after hearing what he said.
To be honest, Rukawa Kaede did not want to do what Jinguji Martial Arts said. In fact, before the game, when coach Anzai asked him to play point guard, Rukawa Kaede refused at first.
The reason is simple, that is, he does not want to be like Miyagi Ryota, who just brings the ball into the frontcourt and then gives the ball to Jinguji Budo.
In this way, he will appear to be very useless as a point guard.
Rukawa Kaede has watched many games and knows what an excellent point guard looks like on the court. Even if he is playing a position he is not good at, Rukawa Kaede wants to do his best.
And coincidentally, Rukawa Kaede also has the conditions that an excellent point guard has.
In today's game, Rukawa Kaede couldn't help but want to try his ideal way of playing.
And luckily, overall his style of play was successful.
However, things like basketball skills and tactics are afraid of comparison. Rukawa Kaede's style of play that he thought was effective did not put Shohoku in the lead, but fell behind Sanno by a few points.
After Jinguji Budo took over the ball, the point difference was quickly smoothed out.
This made Rukawa Kaede feel that his previous efforts were like a joke.
Although Budo had previously comforted him not to think too much and play according to his own ideas, but now he faced Jinguji Budo's challenge. Rukawa Kaede couldn't decide whether to accept or reject.
Although this young man has a strong will, he is a twisted person...
Rukawa Kaede entered the frontcourt with the ball and approached the top of the key. He turned his head slightly and glanced at Jinguji Budo who was backing up to ask for the ball. Rukawa Kaede withdrew his eyes and focused on Kazunari Fukatsu in front of him.
"Is it Jinguji Martial Arts..."
"Jinguji Martial Arts, this kid can pass the ball."
"Jinguji Budo's touch is very good. He has scored consecutive goals in just one minute. This first-year student will definitely know how to pass the ball!"
The Sanno players noticed Rukawa Kaede's gaze on Jinguji Martial Arts. At this moment, whether it was Kazunari Fukatsu guarding Rukawa Kaede or Kawada Masashi guarding Takenori Akagi inside, they all made unified judgments on Rukawa Kaede's next actions. .
And most of these people's attention was diverted to the martial arts of Jinguji Temple.
Rukawa Kaede noticed the thoughts of the Sanno team members, his expression condensed, and he no longer hesitated in his heart.
While dribbling high, the explosive ball feinted, and then after a suspended dribble, Rukawa Kaede turned his head and looked at Jinguji Budo in the corner.
His movement immediately aroused Fukatsu Kazunari's alert. He made a wrong step and leaned slightly towards the direction of Jinguji Temple's martial arts, so that he could immediately reach out to intercept him.
Fukatsu also doesn’t have a long memory. In other words, Fukatsu’s emphasis on Jinguji martial arts far exceeds the importance he places on Rukawa Kaede.
Rukawa Kaede's pass was a feint, and he easily deceived Fukatsu Kazunari.
"Snapped!"
As the basketball landed, Rukawa Kaede changed direction in front of his body and accelerated directly to Fukatsu Kazunari's right side. With a flash of his body, he passed Fukatsu directly and rushed towards the inside.
At this time, Kawada Masashi on the inside had been promoted to the middle distance. He was also deceived by Rukawa Kaede's fake move. He got into position early and was ready to double-team Jinguji Budo. At this moment, he lost the supplementary power. defensive opportunities.
Rukawa Kaede easily entered the inside, and at the moment Masahiro Nobe came up to cover, he faked a pass and sent the ball to Takenori Akagi under the basket.
Akagi's eyes lit up when he got the basketball, and he shot the ball into the basket with both hands.
The gorilla slam dunk was finally successfully performed 15 minutes into the game between Shohoku High School and Sanno.
Akagi, who had successfully dunked, seemed quite excited. He roared and quickly walked towards Rukawa Kaede, and the two high-fived.
The morale of Shohoku High School also increased a lot with Takenori Akagi's dunk. The substitutes off the court shouted loudly to cheer for the players on the court. But Budo, who was trying to get the ball to no avail, saw Rukawa Kaede's attitude towards the basketball this time. The processing is also a bit confusing.
After a while, he shook his head and laughed.
"This boy is so brave!"
"I've obviously seen the difference, but I still believe in myself. I underestimate him."
Martial Arts thought so in his heart, with a gentle smile on his face, when he ran to Rukawa Kaede's side, he couldn't help but praise:
"Good pass, Rukawa Kaede."
"Keep hitting like this."
Although he persuaded Rukawa Kaede to be firm in his thoughts, in fact, when Budao scored five points to even the score difference in just one minute, Budao was wondering whether Rukawa Kaede would change his mind after seeing the difference in scoring efficiency. It changed into the same style of play as Ryota Miyagi.
Budo feels that first-year Rukawa Kaede may be tempted to rely on his scoring ability and then pass the ball to him.
Unexpectedly, Rukawa Kaede still showed his own style, and did not let the terrifying scoring ability of martial arts affect his style of play.
I have to say, it’s pretty good!
Rukawa Kaede's pass this time was beyond the expectations of all Sanno players, and they couldn't help but look at Rukawa Kaede, a first-year player, with admiration.
Kazunari Fukatsu, who is also at the point guard position, feels the most obvious. If his and Rukawa Kaede's positions were switched, and facing an ace of Jinguji Budo's caliber asking for the ball, he would choose to pass the ball even if he had a chance to break through.
"Obviously I can rely on the scoring ability of Jinguji Budo without thinking, but I still trust myself and seize the opportunity to break through."
"This first grader is really confident."
"I have a hunch that another superstar may appear in Shobei."
In the stands, coach Tian Gang couldn't help but praise. He admired Rukawa Kaede very much. At this moment, God knows how much coach Tian Gang hopes that Rukawa Kaede will be a player of their Lingnan High School.
If Rukawa Kaede comes to their Lingnan and joins hands with Shinomiya Tōno and Sendō Akira, they will definitely be able to bring Lingnan High School to another peak!
While everyone's attention was attracted by Rukawa Kaede from Shohoku High School, Sakuragi Hanamichi's face was filled with anger and his chest was filled with jealousy.
"Damn stinky fox!
!
"
"You actually steal the show by yourself again!"
"Instead of giving the ball to Brother Martial Arts, he breaks through by himself. Does this kid think he is better than Brother Martial Arts?!"
"And after the breakthrough, he actually passed the ball to the gorilla but not to the genius... Obviously the genius is also open!"
"hateful!
! "
Sakuragi was muttering, his face full of displeasure. Nobe Masahiro, who entered the inside line, also felt the inexplicable resentment coming from Sakuragi Hanamichi, and gave Sakuragi a confused look.
At this time, Sakuragi just raised his head. Due to anger and jealousy, Sakuragi's eyes were red at this moment, giving people an extremely dangerous feeling.
"..." Nobe Masahiro didn't know what happened to Sakuragi Hanamichi. He was stuck in his own position and wanted to occupy a favorable position.
But as soon as his body pressed against Sakuragi Hanamichi, he felt a huge force coming from behind him. This force was more terrifying than any previous burst of power by Sakuragi Hanamichi.
Nobe Masahiro could not maintain his current position and was staggered by Sakuragi Hanamichi.
As luck would have it, Fukatsu Kazunari was beginning to break through at this time. Seeing Rukawa Kaede following closely, he passed the ball directly to the inside, and the target of the pass was Masahiro Nobe.
But at this moment, Masahiro Nobe was out of position at all. When he caught the ball, his hand slipped and the basketball fell to the ground.
"Roar!
! "
Sakuragi Hanamichi roared, jumped, and directly held the ball in his arms. He was full of resentment a second ago and laughed cheerfully the moment he got the ball.
"Hahahahaha!"
"I am indeed a genius!"
Before passing the ball, Sakuragi did not forget to boast, and then threw the ball to Jinguji Budo.
"Hmph! I'm different from that stinky fox. I can pass the ball to Brother Martial Arts."
Jinguji Budo, who was on a fast break, received a pass from Sakuragi Hanamichi and immediately started to speed up. Sakuragi roared excitedly as he looked at Jinguji Martial Arts rushing forward.
"Come on! Martial Arts Brother!"
It was as if he was the one rushing forward with the ball at this time.
Jinguji Budo quickly crossed the center line with the ball, and at this time, Kazunari Fukatsu and Eiji Sawabita quickly moved toward Budo from the left and the right.
Budo slowed down when receiving the ball, which gave Fukatsu and Zebei the possibility to pursue.
Soon, when the martial arts approached the three-point line, the two finally caught up with the Jinguji martial arts, and quickly circled in front of the martial arts, trying to intercept the martial arts.
However, facing the two people in front of them, Jinguji Martial Arts not only did not slow down in speed, but actually became one point faster.
In the blink of an eye, Jinguji Budo had already crossed the free throw line. One step inside the free throw line, Budo directly connected the ball and strode towards the basket.
Kazunari Fukatsu and Eiji Sawabita were also standing under the basket at this moment. Looking at Jinguji Budo leaping high, they raised their hands without hesitation and jumped up, trying to block the shot.
"Peng!"
However, Jinguji Budo, who grabbed the ball with one hand, held the basketball high and quickly slid towards the basket without even the intention of dodging. His body hit Zebei and Shenjin hard, making a muffled sound.
The momentum of Martial Arts' sliding has weakened, but at this time he is already close to the basket, grabbing the basketball with his right hand and slamming it towards the basket.
"Bang!" Kazunari Fukatsu's bounce was far inferior to that of Jinguji Budo. He slapped Budo's forearm, but it was not able to stop Jinguji Budo's slam dunk at all.
The same goes for Eiji Sawabita, who has a slightly better bounce. He can't reach the basketball in Jinguji Budo's hand even when he takes off from a standing position.
He also hit Wu Dao on his forearm.
However, Eiji Sawabita and Kazunari Fukatsu, who struggled to block the ball, could not stop Jinguji Budo from dunking at all, and the basketball was directly smashed into the net by Jinguji Budo.
Dunk two people apart.
“Bang!
! "With a loud noise, the basketball was poured into the basket. Sawabita Eiji and Fukatsu Kazunari were knocked off balance by the martial arts in mid-air and fell back to the ground quickly. They both staggered and sat down on the floor.
Jinguji Martial Arts grabbed the basket with one hand, and the spotlight shone from the roof, reflecting the shadow of Jinguji Martial Arts on Zebei and Fukatsu.
"Is there any difference between two people... and an empty seat?!"
Jinguji Budo let go of the basket, lowered his head and looked at the two people Sawabita Eiji and Fukatsu Kazunari on the ground, and suddenly asked.
No one answered. Kazunari Fukatsu and Eiji Sawabita were both staring blankly at Jinguji Martial Arts, imprinting the figure of Jinguji Martial Arts in their hearts.
"Beep——"
"White team number four, the thug fouled!"
Misfortune never comes singly, the referee's whistle sounded, and Fukatsu Kazunari, who had just been dunked by Budo, actually received another foul, once again sending Jinguji Budo to the free throw line.
"Can't you just watch me score?"
"Why pay for a foul? Anyway, you can't stop me!"
