The completely different offensive methods of Xiangbei High School and Lingnan High School allowed the audience to see how the strongest high school students in the country play.
In today's game, not only basketball fans gathered in the stadium to watch the game between Xiangbei and Lingnan, but also many high school players from all over the country and other high school institutions were also watching this game. game.
The game between Xiangbei and Lingnan is called an early final. This is a game between two teams that are the favorites to win the championship, and it is also a head-to-head game between the strongest high school students.
"It's really scary! Whether it's Jinguji martial arts or Shinomiyano, it's completely beyond the scope of high school students."
"Watching the two of them play, it's like watching a professional game on TV."
"Really, so strong!"
Some spectators looked at the people in Lingnan who started to return and praised softly. If he hadn't seen the performance of Jinguji Budo and Shinomiya Tanoh with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that the offensive abilities of high school players could be so terrifying.
On the court, the ball has been given to Xiangbei High School.
Takenori Akagi served from the baseline and gave the basketball to Rukawa Kaede, who quickly advanced towards the frontcourt with the ball. Lingnan High School still maintained the previous defensive method and did not make adjustments to the terrifying offensive capabilities of Jinguji Martial Arts.
When Rukawa Kaede entered the court with the ball, Rukawa Kaede, who was just about to break through, saw Sakuragi Hanamichi standing in the corner of the left mid-range.
"This idiot, doesn't he know how much trouble his position has caused to others?!"
"asshole!"
Rukawa Kaede cursed in his heart, but he did not slack off in dribbling. He turned his head and glanced at Miyaji Budō. Just as he was about to pass the ball, Shinomiya took a step forward and directly blocked Jinguji Budō. behind him, preventing Wu Dao from getting the ball.
In response, Jinguji Budo did not run outside anymore. Instead, after feinting without the ball, he quickly cut towards the inside.
The opponents that Shinomiya Tano and Jinguji Budo have encountered in the past are different. If they are facing other people and facing the opponent's defense, Jinguji Budo will not care at all. He will go to the three-point line. Pull it out a little, then catch the ball and start a breakthrough.
But when the opponent is Shinomiya Tōno, Jinguji Budo will not use such a method of receiving the ball.
Because when the opponent is weak, Jinguji Budo can easily break through even if he receives the ball at the midline, and then reaches his most comfortable offensive area to complete the score.
But when the opponent is a player of Shinomiya's level, Budo needs to shorten the distance between himself and the basket as much as possible. Because only in this way, he can use as little rhythm changes as possible when breaking through, or even break through the opponent without rhythm changes.
In this way, each of his attacks consumes as little physical energy as possible.
Saving physical energy is very important for those high-intensity games.
"Are you cutting without the ball? Just like the previous shot, you plan to use the pick-and-roll to create mismatched singles opportunities for yourself."
Shinomiya's heart sank when he saw Jinguji Budo cutting into the inside line and glanced at Rukawa Kaede on the outside line.
To be honest, if Shohoku High School is determined to attack Fujima at this point, there is really no good way for them in Lingnan to stop him.
In addition to filling in as many positions as possible, the rest can only be left to fate.
Sure enough, Jinguji Martial Arts was the same as before. He had no intention of staying on the inside. He left as soon as he touched it and immediately ran in the direction of Rukawa Kaede.
"Flower shape!"
While pursuing Jinguji Budō, Shinomiya shouted to Toru Hanagata on the side of the free throw line. The latter immediately understood, looked at Jinguji Budō who was rushing to the top of the arc, and immediately raised his steps. However, he did not dare to leave Sakuragi open. When filling the position, he was obviously worried and did not chase closely.
But if Rukawa Kaede breaks through, Shinomiya Tano can ignore Rukawa Kaede and directly target Jinguji Budo. As for Rukawa Kaede, Hanagata can make up for his position.
As for saying that such a defense would leave Sakuragi Hanamichi empty.
In Shinomiya's view, it was more useful and urgent to defend Jinguji Budo and Rukawa Kaede. Sakuragi Hanamichi. You still have to let it go when it’s time to let it go.
But this time, Rukawa Kaede didn't even wait for Jinguji Budo to get the pick and roll in place. He feinted and passed the ball sideways to Jinguji Budo, who had just reached the free throw line.
Hanagata and Shinomiya Tano took one look at it and rushed towards Jinguji Budo, completing the double team in an instant.
However, Jinguji Budo simply gave the two a chance to double-team and defend. The moment the basketball came into play, Jinguji Budo dropped the ball, took an extra step towards the three-point line, then turned over and leaned back to throw the ball.
Decisive shots, powerful bounces and extremely high shooting points all left the defensive Shinomiya with no choice but to straighten his arms as much as possible to block the view of Jinguji Martial Arts, hoping to affect Jinguji. Martial arts hit rate.
But this kind of turning and leaning back has long been engraved in the bones of Jinguji Martial Arts. For this kind of shooting, as long as he confirms his position on the court, even if he shoots with his eyes closed, he can have a good hit rate.
"Uh-huh!"
The next second, the basketball went directly into the net, making a crisp sound.
"Oh!! I scored a goal, what a great shot!"
"Very decisive, Shinomiya's hand almost poked Jinguji Budo's eye, but he still let him score the ball!"
"What a terrifying attack power, it's impossible to stop it!"
Jinguji Budo's exaggerated goal immediately aroused cheers from the audience in the stands. Some young children, seeing Jinguji Budo's wanton and unrestrained shooting posture, even imitated it with gestures on their seats, thinking in their minds During this period, I took myself into the position of Jinguji Martial Arts and imagined what my future playing ball would look like.
"What a great shot!"
"I will definitely play like him in the future!"
In the corner of the stands, a purple-haired elementary school student clenched his fists excitedly, his eyes filled with light.
The graceful figure of Jinguji Budo's fadeaway shot has been engraved in the young mind of the boy.
Sitting on both sides of the primary school student were the parents who had brought him to watch the football match. When the child's father heard what the young man said, he smiled and touched the young man's head and encouraged him:
"Our Ada can definitely do it."
In the stadium, after scoring the goal, Jinguji Budo clapped his hands and called his teammates to return to defense. The Lingnan players were not stunned by the two goals. Everyone in Lingnan and Shinomiya's first team were already immune to the word "surprise".
Between the alternation of offense and defense, Lingnan players pressed into the Xiangbei half.
Shinomiya clearly knew that Jinguji Budo was different from other opponents he had encountered. He stopped catching the ball from outside the three-point line and relied on his strong strength to defeat Jinguji Budo.
Shinomiya also has the awareness to distribute physical energy. After entering the frontcourt, he did not stay on the three-point line and cut directly into the inside.
Seeing the opponent's movements, Budo did not rush to pursue him. Instead, he looked at Fujima who was holding the ball at the top of the key. While jogging to follow Shinomiya Tano, he consciously strangled the possibility of connecting inside and outside. .
Jinguji Budo himself also knows very well that if Shinomiya receives the ball, it will be difficult to defend the opponent. The best way is to prevent the opponent from getting the basketball as much as possible.
What Jinguji Martial Arts could see, several members of Lingnan's team could certainly see it too. Seeing that Shinomiya had no chance to win the ball due to Jinguji Budo's pursuit, Uozumi on the inside immediately gave the running Shinomiya a wink. The latter understood and quickly crossed into the inside.
And when Budo tried to continue to block the passing route of Fujima and Shinomiya in the paint area, Jun Uozumi moved his steps slightly, seemingly inadvertently getting stuck in Jinguji Budo's position.
The quality of Uozumi's cover was average, but Shinomiya got a good gap. However, Fujima, who was holding the ball on the outside, was unable to complete the ball when Shinomiya was open under the defense of Kaede Rukawa.
Rukawa Kaede had his back to the basket, and just by observing Fujima's eyes and expression, he actually judged the opponent's possible passing intention, and directly raised his arms, blocking Fujima's sight.
"This first grader from Shohoku is really difficult to deal with!" Fujima's expression darkened when he missed the opportunity. While dropping the ball and accelerating the breakthrough, he quickly passed the ball behind his back and gave the ball to Sendō on the side.
Fujima's shot was sudden, and the goal was Sendō, which was beyond some people's expectations.
However, Sendō had no intention of playing by himself at this moment. The moment he took possession of the basketball, he raised the ball and shot a feint, and then quickly hit the ground to Shinomiya Konano, who had just run to the free throw line.
It's almost exactly the same position as Jinguji Budo's ball just now.
However, Shinomiya's way of handling the ball is completely different from the previous Jinguji Martial Arts. After a pause, Shinomiya quickly turned around and swept the ball to face the basket. After lifting the ball and making a fake shot, Shinomiya directly started digging. Heading towards the inside.
Jinguji Budo was deceived by the opponent's shooting fake, and when the opponent broke through, he was half a body behind the opponent.
But just this half position gave Shinomiya a gap to attack.
At the free throw line, Shinomiya just dribbled the ball once, then directly connected with the ball. After two steps, he jumped up and glided towards the basket.
Takenori Akagi, who was defending under the basket, noticed Shinomiya's movement and jumped high to try to block Shinomiya. However, the moment his body hit Shinomiya in mid-air, he couldn't stop. He started to retreat and completely gave up his defensive position.
"Bang!" After a physical confrontation, Shinomiya hooked the ball with his left hand and sent the ball into the net.
Shinomiya landed on the ground and stood firmly on the ground with his feet. But Takenori Akagi, who was fighting against him, staggered when he landed. He took three or four steps back before he could regain his footing without falling.
When Shinomiya saw Akagi standing firm, he raised his eyebrows and praised with a smile: "Not bad, he actually stood firm."
"The power is pretty good!"
Although it was a compliment, Takenori Akagi sounded quite harsh and did not feel happy at all.
Jun Uozumi passed by Akagi when he was returning to defense, and he taunted in a deep voice: "You don't know your own abilities. Who do you think you are? Can you block Tano's attack?"
"There's no foul, so you're just lucky."
After saying that, Uozumi trotted towards his own half, ignoring Takenori Akagi's expression that changed.
"Hey!" Takenori Akagi curled his lips, a little unconvinced, but also a little helpless.
Someone else, who played small forward, actually crushed him, who played center, in physical confrontation. For Akagi, this was indeed humiliating.
"Good defense, Akagi."
"make persistent efforts."
Jinguji Martial Arts gave an encouragement to Akagi, and then quickly ran towards the frontcourt.
The successive offensive performances of Jinguji Martial Arts and Shinomiya Tano have pushed the audience's enthusiasm to the peak. Cheers poured into the stadium like a wave.
With the support of the audience's cheers, both Jinguji Budo and Shinomiya Tano maintained a considerable level of offensive ability. Between you and me, the first half of the game lasted only 7 minutes.
The score between the two teams also reached 16:17, with only one point difference.
Shohoku High School has a one-point lead. At the same time, Shohoku High School still holds the ball. Indeed, under the leadership of Shinomiya, Lingnan High School's offensive efficiency is very high. The offense led by Shinomiya rarely misses.
However, the offensive efficiency of Shohoku High School is not low, but Lingnan is really strong. Jinguji Budo's shooting rate is far lower than that of the weak teams they faced before. Therefore, after 7 minutes of playing, their Shohoku only had 17 points.
If he hadn't scored two three-pointers, Xiangbei High School might not have had such a lead.
"Defend! Defend! Defend!"
The team fell behind, and Lingnan's players sitting on the bench loudly cheered for the players on the field.
There were rhythmic cheers as the Xiangbei players slowly pushed the ball into the frontcourt and passed into the stadium.
After Rukawa Kaede dribbled the ball into the frontcourt, Mitsui Hisashi quickly pulled from the baseline to the top of the arc and set up a pick-and-roll for Rukawa Kaede. With Mitsui Hisashi's pick-and-roll, Rukawa Kaede quickly dropped the ball and broke through.
At this time, Lingnan's Xiandao and Fujima Kenji also quickly changed their defenses.
However, Rukawa Kaede's breakthrough direction did not break through toward the inside. Instead, it moved quickly along the three-point line and toward the corner on the right.
When he came to Budo's side, he quickly handed the ball to Jinguji Budo and quickly ran to the bottom corner.
Shinomiya hurriedly glanced at Rukawa Kaede who was running towards the bottom corner and did not choose to defend. Seeing this, Xiandao was forced to chase Rukawa Kaede in the bottom corner.
This time, Budo did not hit the ball himself. He pretended to break through the ball and passed it back to Mitsui Hisashi at the top of the arc.
The latter takes the ball, directly close to the three-point line, and shoots upside down.
With this kind of shooting speed, even if Tengzhen, who was more than ten centimeters shorter than him, could react, he would not have time to jump up and block him.
"Uh-huh!!"
With a crisp sound of brushing the net, the scoreboard on the sidelines also reached 16:20.
The point difference between the two teams came to 4 points.
This is the first time Lingnan High School has faced such a backward situation in the national competition this year.
There is no doubt that for Lingnan fans, Lingnan is already facing a big crisis right now!
