"How's it going? Our first graders in Shohoku are not bad, right?"
Listening to Jinguji's slightly boastful words about martial arts, Shinomiya just shook his head and smiled.
He turned his head and looked at Rukawa Kaede, who was starting to defend himself, and said with a smile: "The first grade is just the first grade after all."
"If you think he can keep fighting like this, then I think the result may disappoint you."
Shinomiya Tōno said, crossing the Jinguji Martial Arts Road and running towards the front court. Jun Uozumi at the bottom line made a quick serve and gave the ball to Kenji Fujima. After receiving the ball, the latter did not carry the ball to the frontcourt like in the previous offense. Instead, he threw the ball directly towards the frontcourt and passed it to Shinomiya Tōno was moving quickly towards the frontcourt.
Chasing and fast attack!
When the Lingnan basketball was fired, Sakuragi Hanamichi and Akagi Takenori had just ran out of the paint area, and they had not even crossed the three-point line. They were still far away from their own half. And Shinomiya Tano was already approaching the midline at this moment. After getting the basketball, he quickly attacked Shohoku.
The sudden pursuit and fast attack caught Xiangbei High School off guard. The only ones who could return to defense in time were Jinguji Martial Arts, Hisashi Mitsui and Kaede Rukawa.
"Xiaosan, keep an eye on Xiandao."
"Rukawa Kaede, prepare to take over."
Jinguji Budo's figure quickly appeared next to Shinomiya Tanoh, looking at the basketball in the opponent's hand. From the corner of his eye, he saw Sendō Akira quickly entering the frontcourt, and then immediately shouted to Mitsui Hisashi and Rukawa Kaede.
There are only two fast break initiators at Lingnan High School, while there are three defensive players at Xiangbei High School!
Soon, Jinguji Budo followed Shinomiya Tōno and approached the three-point line. Seeing that Shinomiya Tōno showed no intention of slowing down, Budō also realized that he could not wait any longer. He immediately increased his speed and went around Shinomiya Tōno. In front of him, he reached out and hit the basketball.
And at this moment, Shinomiya Tano, who was traveling at high speed, just made a simple back luck and quickly avoided the interception of Jinguji Martial Arts. At the same time, he used his bad luck to get this little gap and immediately pushed against Jinguji Temple with his side. On the martial arts body.
"Peng!"
With a muffled sound, Jinguji Martial Arts was forcefully pushed away by the other party and stalled. Shinomiya, who got the gap, accelerated and rushed directly towards the basket.
Facing the rapidly approaching Shinomiya field, Rukawa Kaede's expression condensed, and his face that was originally a bit cold became full of solemnity at this moment.
With his eyes fixed on Shinomiya Nono, watching the opponent ball, step and take off, Rukawa Kaede also jumped up the moment the opponent took off, and sealed the basketball in Shinomiya Nono's hand with his right hand.
"Boy, can you stop me?!"
Shinomiya shouted loudly, grabbed the ball with his right hand and raised it high, and his body directly hit Rukawa Kaede in the air. Rukawa Kaede's right hand just touched the basketball in Shinomiya's hand, and was directly pushed away by the opponent, while he grabbed the ball with one hand. Shinomiya Tōno also quickly pressed the basketball in his hand toward the basket.
"Bullying young people is not something worth showing off!"
"Shinomiya Fields."
However, just when Shinomiya was about to slam dunk, Jinguji Budo's figure quickly jumped out from behind Shinomiya, with his big hand from top to bottom, directly pressing on the basketball.
"Cang!" Shinomiya Dino dunked with one arm, but due to the influence of Jinguji martial arts, the basketball was directly hit by him on the rim and bounced quickly towards the three-point line.
"Catching up?!"
Shinomiya Tōdō landed quickly, saw the Jinguji Martial Arts behind him, and murmured, slightly surprised in his heart.
"Of course!"
"I was prepared for the impact from the beginning. How could I lose my position so easily?!"
"It seems that you attach great importance to this kid Rukawa Kaede. Didn't you even notice that I appeared behind you?!"
Budao said, turning to look at the basketball. The basketball that was dunked by Shinomiya was caught by Sakuragi Hanamichi who returned to defense.
A rebound falling from the sky made Sakuragi Hanamichi count...
According to reports, one more goal was added.
"Hoho, I am indeed a genius."
"I got the rebound!"
The basketball fell into Sakuragi's hands, and Sakuragi Hanamichi was all smiles. Then he glanced contemptuously at Rukawa Kaede, who was being flown to the basketball hoop by Shinomiya Tanoda, and quickly passed the ball to Budo, who was now rushing toward the Lingnan half.
Jinguji Martial Arts doesn’t want to miss such an opportunity to defend and counterattack!
At the same time that the basketball entered Jinguji Budo's hands, Lingnan's players began to rush back towards their own half.
None of the Lingnan team members expected that Shinomiya Tōno's attack would be intercepted by Jinguji Martial Arts. Therefore, when Jinguji Martial Arts had launched a counterattack, there were not many players in Lingnan who returned to defend.
Uozumi Jun had just reached the middle line and had just turned around to return to defense. He had only taken two steps when Jinguji Budo's figure had already surpassed him. And on the body of Jinguji Martial Arts, a blue figure is also firmly attached to Jinguji Martial Arts, not giving any space.
"Are you on guard..."
"But I won't make the same mistake as you."
While Budo was dribbling, he glanced at Shinomiya Tōno who was following him out of the corner of his eye and thought to himself. As Jinguji Budo approached the three-point line, his dribbling speed also slowed down.
It seems that he is ready to give up the fast break and wait for his teammates to enter.
"Slow down?! Do you want to slow down and reorganize?"
Such an idea just flashed through Shinomiya's mind, but he immediately rejected it.
"No, it's impossible, this guy won't let go of this opportunity!"
Shinomiya's expression was condensed. As Jinguji's martial arts slowed down, his movement speed also slowed down. However, he still kept an eye on it. When defending, he stood with one foot in front and one behind. He could move at any time. Prepare to speed up the pursuit.
Sure enough, Jinguji Budou just paused, and then accelerated again. After crossing the three-point line and rushing two more steps, Jinguji Budou made another sudden stop. While the basketball quickly pulled back, he looked up at the basket. .
However, after successfully deceiving Shinomiya's center of gravity, Jinguji Budo once again changed direction in front of the body, accelerated his steps, and after a quick translation step, he directly shot a jumper.
The basketball flew directly over Shinomiya's head and then fell steadily into the basket.
The basketball hit the net, Jinguji Budo made a fist with his right hand, glanced at Shinomiya Tano, and showed a slight smile on his lips.
Shinomiya turned his head and saw the basketball net falling down. His expression did not change. He just turned around and glanced at Jinguji Martial Arts without saying anything.
He was very aware of the opponent's strength, and such an attack was not surprising at all.
Facing the strong Shohoku High School, Lingnan High School was not to be outdone. They turned around and relied on Shinomiya's personal ability to tear apart the Shohoku defense line, forcing Sakuragi on the inside to cover the defense.
Under the double-team of Jinguji Budo and Sakuragi Hanamichi, Shinomiya chose the most reasonable way of playing and passed the ball to the open Hanagata.
The latter received the ball and went directly to the inside, and sent the ball into the net with a layup.
Between the alternation of offense and defense, Xiangbei High School once again organized an attack.
This time, Lingnan High School repeated its old tricks. Hanagata let go of Sakuragi Hanamichi and went to the free throw line, blocking the breakthrough route of Rukawa Kaede who might break through. It also played a role in guarding Jinguji Budo.
Faced with Lingnan's defensive method, Jinguji Budo quickly ran to Rukawa Kaede. After getting the ball hand-to-hand, he made a fake pass and gave the ball to Sakuragi.
After the open Sakuragi stabilized his posture, he took an open shot.
But maybe it was because this kid was too excited in today's game and used a lot of force when shooting, and the basketball just fell out of the frame.
"Ahhhh?!
! "
After a missed shot, Sakuragi held his head and shouted, then rushed inside to grab the rebound.
Fortunately
Sakuragi used more force when shooting, and the basketball bounced farther. Sakuragi successfully grabbed the rebound and picked off the rebound.
Sakuragi, who got the ball again, was eager to make up for his "gaffe" just now, so he shot directly without making any adjustments.
Of course, a frizzy shot will not achieve the desired effect. The basketball hits the edge of the basket and pops out again.
"Nani?!
"
"I'll grab it again!
! "
Sakuragi's bounce and explosion are really quite powerful, much better than Hanagata and Uozumi. In this situation, he actually staged a self-shooting and grabbing rebound, and once again collected the rebound in his arms.
When Sakuragi was preparing to shoot again, the voice of Jinguji Budo came from Sakuragi Hanamichi's side at the right time.
Seeing Jinguji Budo rushing to the middle distance, Sakuragi reluctantly gave the ball away.
Starting with the basketball, Jinguji Budo exploded the ball at once, stopped suddenly and carried the basket, and after a series of shoulder passes, he turned over and leaned back to throw the ball.
Although the defender Shinomiya raised his arm to try to block it, he still had no way to affect Jinguji Budo's fadeaway jumper.
The basketball hit the board and made a crisp sound.
After the goal, Shohoku retreated quickly. Seeing Jinguji Budo score the ball again, everyone in Lingnan also looked at each other. Shinomiya ran forward silently. Seeing Shinomiya's leaving back, Lingnan After everyone served, they quickly followed.
Lingnan High School couldn't stop Xiangbei High School's attack, but it was also not easy for Xiangbei High School to resist Lingnan's attack.
During the alternation of offense and defense, Sendō set up a pick-and-roll screen for Shinomiya Tōno, but Shinomiya Tōno did not use the pick-and-roll to break through this time. Instead, he took two steps and shot directly from outside the three-point line.
The shooting touch of this "devil's muscular man" was unusually soft. Although the shooting speed was not fast, such a sudden and abnormal three-pointer still caught Xiangbei off guard. The basketball fell steadily into the net, giving Lingnan the scoreboard. Three points added.

Even if Tao shoots from an open position, his hit rate may not be as high as Jinguji Budo's shot.
However, when Sakuragi scored three consecutive mid-range shots in the middle of the first half, Shinomiya did not stick to this idea and asked Hanagata to keep an eye on Sakuragi to prevent Sakuragi from having an open shot.
Sakuragi Hanamichi, who has tasted the sweetness, of course cannot stand in the middle distance and wait for his teammates to pass the ball as stupidly as before. He hopes that he can have more shooting opportunities, so he is extremely active on the court, involving Hanagata. The defense was running all over the field.
With Sakuragi's involvement, Jinguji Budo on the outside does not have to worry about Hanagata's replacement. In a one-on-one situation with Shinomiya Nono, Jinguji Nobu Dou is not inferior to Shinomiya Nodo at all.
The opponent's strength and bounce are not enough in the face of his shooting and rhythm changes!
On the side of the court, Coach Anxi looked at the game on the court, touched his chin, and began to think in his heart.
"We and Lingnan are both very strong teams."
"The outcome of this game depends on which team can defend its opponent first."
"We in Xiangbei... also need to make some adjustments."
Coach Anzai saw that Shohoku's offense began to stabilize and was thinking about how to contain Lingnan High School's offense.
When the first half of the game reached 14 minutes, the score between the two teams reached 31:35. While Xianghoku High School had the ball, it also led its opponent by 4 points.
In the court, Jinguji Budo faced Shinomiya Tōno's defense and called a pick-and-roll. As Mitsui Hisuti stepped forward, Jinguji Budō dribbled the ball into the bottom corner, and then directly hit the ball close to the baseline. He pulled out his hand sideways and threw the ball against Xiandao's defense.
The basketball flew directly into the net at a zero-degree angle, widening the point difference between the two sides to 7 points.
As Jinguji Budo scored the ball, the audience in the stands burst into cheers. When the Shohoku players returned to defense, they saw Coach Anzai standing on the sidelines and giving the players a "three" sign.
"Finally, are you ready to start?"
"Let's see if the tactics laid out by the coach can block Lingnan's attack!"
Mitsui Hisashi saw Coach Anzai's gesture on the way back to defense, clapped his hands towards the players, and also made a "three" gesture.
The Xiangbei players understood, and when they returned to position, they adopted a 23-zone defense position.
Leading the defense on the outside are Sakuragi Hanamichi, Rukawa Kaede and... Mitsui Hisashi!
