Taro Aso plays completely as a defender, but his physical fitness is so powerful that even Ikegami has a hard time restricting him.
This feels like Kaede Rukawa at the power forward position.
However, in the next round, Uozumi responded to him again. After breaking through Nozawa Junichiro, in mid-air, facing Matsushima Kazuto's block, he hit a throw with his right hand.
A tall and powerful center can actually use floaters as skillfully as a guard. I have to say, this is very surprising.
However, this is the reality. Judging from Uozumi's movements, it is obvious that he often practices throwing, otherwise his movements would not be so skillful.
As Yuzhu hit the throw, the two teams were tied again.
After returning to defense, Yuzhu took a deep breath and said to his teammates: "Everyone, with me sitting in the penalty area, everyone can guard against shots and sudden breakthroughs."
Uozumi's decision to dominate both ends of the floor, even for a short period of time, can put more pressure on the Shoyo team, and it's best to get them to agree to his demands.
His teammates agreed one after another. In the team, Uozumi has established his own authority, and he is above the captain Yusaku Ozawa, and second only to coach Taoka.
So when the Xiangyang team launched an attack, the teammates got closer to the opposing players, completely guarding against shots but not against breakthroughs.
Naturally, the Xiangyang team did not miss this opportunity. Kimura Yuya took the opportunity to break through. As soon as he broke into the penalty area, he made a sudden stop and took off to shoot.
Suddenly, Uozumi abandoned Junichiro Nozawa and pounced straight on.
With the advantages of height and wingspan, even if Yuzhu took off a beat slower, half of his hand still touched the basketball.
The area of the penalty area is limited. It is such a small area. As long as the opponent dares to shoot, with Yuzhu's current speed and flexibility, not to mention defending, at least it can be restricted and reduce the opponent's shooting rate.
The highest altitude in Kanagawa Prefecture is not just talk.
Unless the opponent is a flexible center as tall as Hanagata, it won't be a problem even if he takes off one step later.
After completing the block, the basketball flew upward again for a certain distance and fell again.
Uozumi took off again and grabbed the basketball. Seeing that the Panasonic Asahi Sword had been activated, he quickly threw the ball forward.
Fast break!
Matsushita Asahi Ken is used to fast breaks. He started it when Uozumi completed the block. By the time Fujima reacted, it was already too late.
Fujima did not give up and kept chasing, but in the end he was still a step too slow. In the end, he could only watch as Asahi Ken Matsushita succeeded in a fast break layup.
52:50
As a result, Lingnan took the lead by two points.
Xiangyang launched another attack. This time, it was Fujima's turn to break into the penalty area and want to score a layup.
Facing Uozumi's defense, Fujima was very calm. In mid-air, he relied on his feeling to pass the ball from behind to the other side with one hand.
Bang~
As soon as Uozumi landed, he saw Junichiro Nozawa jump up and score a slam dunk.
"drink!"
Nozawa Junichiro couldn't help roaring, venting the frustration suppressed by Uozumi.
In the first half, Junichiro Nozawa was suppressed by Uozumi, and he only scored two points with free throws.
Yuzhu couldn't help but shook his head, this ball was really unpreventable.
Fujima's organizational level is indeed unparalleled. Even in the entire SD, he is still one of the best.
It would be great if Lingnan had such a good point guard, he could definitely play more easily.
Unfortunately, Fujima is a player for the Shoyo team.
In this case, he can only place his hope on Sendou Akira next year.
Offense and defense transition!
Uozumi once again stepped forward to pick and roll. Facing Fujima who was changing defense, he immediately started a post-up singles, completely denying Fujima a chance to steal.
As for Fujima's small arms and legs, which could not withstand Yuzhu's torture, he was knocked to the ground by Yuzhu and rushed into the restricted area.
At this time, Junichiro Nozawa rushed over.
Uozumi didn't attack Junichiro Nozawa from behind, nor did he pass the ball to Asahi Ken Matsushita. It wasn't that he didn't want to pass, it was just that his passing level was not very good.
Without hesitation, the fish took the ball and changed direction to break through.
Uozumi's ball control level is average, but he is not as rusty as Takenori Akagi. He can take advantage of his speed to overpower Junichiro Nozawa.
Sure enough, Junichiro Nozawa was caught alive like a wooden stake, relying on his speed to break into the basket and score a layup.
Lingnan once again took advantage of the score.
In the next three minutes, Uozumi not only exerted strength on the offensive end, but also spared no effort in physical strength, significantly strengthening his dominance on the defensive end.
Under his rule, the penalty area almost became a no-fly zone, and in just three minutes, he once again completed two blocks.
The Xiangyang players were obviously frightened. They didn't dare to break into the penalty area. They could only hang outside and score jump shots.
Their efficiency is pretty good, but how can they compare with Yuzhu.
The closer you are to the basket, the higher your efficiency is. This is not just talk.
This is the era of center dominance!
61:56
Only five or six minutes into the second half, Lingnan not only took the lead, but also tended to extend the score advantage in one fell swoop.
Among them, Yuzhuju has made the greatest contribution.
Toot~
Until this time, coach Xiangyang requested a timeout.
Fujima looked at the coach without saying a word and sat on the bench to rest.
He still feels that his coach's technical and tactical standards are not as good as those of his opponent, Coach Taoka.
When a person forms a prejudice, he or she will tend to amplify this emotion once a situation is unfavorable to oneself.
On Xiangyang's bench, Coach Xiangyang first boosted his morale, and then his eyes fell on the players on the bench, finally settling on a handsome young man wearing glasses.
On the other side, Yuzhu was sitting on the bench, breathing heavily.
Although he defeated the Xiangyang team on the court, his physical strength inevitably declined rapidly due to his continuous efforts on both offense and defense.
Uozumi took a deep breath and took a sip of sports drink. He knew very well that if he continued like this, his physical strength would soon be at its lowest.
There is no way, he is not a physical monster.
Judging from the data panel, his physical fitness is only 89 points.
Although it is considered a very good level among high school players, compared with a physical monster like Sakuragi Hanamichi, it inevitably pales in comparison.
Not long after, the pause ended.
Uozumi came on stage again and subconsciously looked to the opposite side.
After the timeout ended, he found that Xiangyang's lineup had changed.
Junichiro Nozawa, who was completely defeated by him on both offense and defense, came off the field and was replaced by Toru Hanagata.
Judging from the data, the first-year Toru Hanagata is 194 centimeters tall and 81 kilograms. His body shape is not slim, and he is not bad at fighting.
"Nervous!"
Uozumi looked at Hanagata. He didn't know if the current Hanagata would hit the mark, but he was still a threat.
