Taro Aso was also helpless. He didn't want the county championship to slip away from his hands, especially since the county championship was tied to the best player.
In the history of the Kanagawa Prefecture Tournament, the best player has always been selected from the prefecture tournament championship team, without exception.
This year is Taro Aso's last year, so he is naturally eager to win the prefecture championship and the best player.
However, while Xiangyang won the county championship, there was also the possibility of being eliminated.
If Xiangyang wants to win the county championship, it must not only beat Lingnan, but also surpass Lingnan by eight points.
The problem is, there are only three minutes left. Even if Yuzhu is not in good condition, it is too difficult to lead Lingnan by eight points.
What if I lose!
So for the sake of the overall situation, Aso finally decided to give up the county championship.
Uozumi frowned and flatly refused: "I said, why did you go there earlier? There are only three minutes left. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is impossible for you Xiangyang to win the county championship. Do you think this matter is still discussed? Necessary?"
Taro Aso's breath was stagnant, his mouth opened, and he was speechless. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
Uozumi was right, it would be really difficult to lead Lingnan by eight points before the end of the game.
"Okay, no need to say more, this is a competitive sport, and strength will ultimately determine the outcome!"
Although this might give Hainan an advantage, Uozhu gave up the idea of compromise.
Because, Lingnan is already in an invincible position.
After finishing speaking, Uozumi walked towards the paint area.
Looking at Uozumi's back, Aso Taro felt a little regretful.
If you had agreed at the beginning, you would not have to take such a risk again.
At this time, the feet where the fish lives are like being filled with lead, and the body is inevitably affected.
However, Yuzhu still pretends to be relaxed on the surface, giving people the feeling that he has room for effort.
In fact, he is already strong on the outside but capable on the inside.
He is Lingnan's Dinghai Shenzhen, and he cannot show his exhaustion easily, otherwise it will easily affect Lingnan's morale.
Uozumi continues to sit in the paint area. Due to his strong intimidation and the presence of the "Hengha Second General", Xiangyang players rarely break into the penalty area.
Therefore, there is not much defensive pressure on him.
At this time, the two teams began to play with success and cherish every possession.
Soon, Taro Aso appeared at 45° on the right, and before Okusu rushed over, he shot the basketball in his hand.
Da Nan Guji raised his hand, and then immediately returned to the basket to help Yuzhu protect the rebound.
On the other side, Inoue Toyoyoshi also made the same move.
For a moment, three big men over 1.9 meters tall formed a circle around the basket, and the Xiangyang players could hardly squeeze in.
Whether it's Hanagata or Taro Aso, their confrontation is not very strong, and they don't even like to fight for rebounds.
Bang~
Perhaps because of being rejected by Uozumi, Taro Aso was not in very good condition, and the basketball bounced off the rim.
Short rebound!
Inoue Toyoyoshi and Ohkusu immediately turned into front players. Uozumi just stretched out his arms and easily protected the rebound.
Seeing that there was no chance for a fast break, Uozumi casually handed the ball to Asahi Ken Matsushita, and then stepped forward step by step.
A big man like him must consume more energy faster than a small man.
After delaying time, Asahi Ken Matsushita passed the ball to Da Kusuma.
At this moment, Hanagata and Taro Aso rushed up immediately, and were about to double-team Matsushima Ichito.
Da Nan Guji was startled and jumped up quickly. In order to avoid being intercepted by Hanaxing, he did not throw the ball to Yu Zhi. Instead, he turned around in mid-air and shot towards the basket based on his feeling.
Bang~
The basketball didn't hit the basket, it just bounced off the backboard.
Uozumi exerted all his strength, stretched out his hand a little, and successfully put the ball into the basket.
Lingnan team leads by two points again!
Wow~
At this moment, the audience supporting the Lingnan team suddenly cheered.
Well, that includes the Hainan team.
At the moment of landing, Yuzhu stood still again, because a teammate would take the initiative to foul.
Unfortunately, Hanagata seized the opportunity this time and made two free throws, and the score was tied again.
However, in the next round of offense, Uozumi relied on his rich game experience and made a flower-shaped defensive foul.
Bang~shua~
Under the nervous eyes of Xiangyang players, Yuzhu made one of two free throws, and Lingnan once again led by one point.
This time, Lingnan’s foul target was no longer Hanagata, but Ichito Matsushima.
Coach Taoka has looked at the data from the previous games. Among them, Matsushima's free throw shooting percentage was only about 70%.
Now is the most critical moment of the game. As a Xiangyang role player, Matsushima Kazuto may be affected.
Bang ~ bang ~
Ichito Matsushima seemed too nervous and failed to make a free throw.
Everyone in Xiangyang suddenly became nervous, because Lingnan not only led by one point, but also had the ball.
At this point, there are less than two minutes left before the end of the game.
Soon, Uozumi caught the basketball again. He was breathing heavily. He felt very uncomfortable, but he forced himself to endure it.
Bang~
Uozumi crashed out of the flower shape again.
Wow~
However, just as he was trying to squeeze into the paint area with all his strength, his feet slipped and he fell due to sweat, and he fell heavily to the floor.
Yuzhu's head went blank, but he still subconsciously held the basketball.
The Xiangyang player wanted to grab the ball, but he quickly turned over and pressed the basketball with his body.
Seeing Uozumi's actions, the Xiangyang players didn't know where to start.
Toot~
The referee's whistle sounded. Xiangyang's players acted very cleanly. They did not commit a foul, but it was Lingnan's 30-second violation.
A 30-second violation occurs when a player controls a live ball on the court and the team must complete the shot within 30 seconds.
Just now, when Uozumi caught the basketball, there were only the last few seconds left in the attack time.
Huh~huh~
Yuzhu was lying on the floor, breathing heavily. He was not injured, but he just didn't want to get up.
He is really tired, being a father and a mother at the same time, which can be seen from his data.
However, at this moment, coach Tian Gang chose to make a substitution and resolutely replaced Uozumi.
Coach Tian Gang knew very well that Uozumi's physical strength was approaching its limit and he would easily get injured if he continued to fight. Moreover, with the remaining time, Lingnan would already have the county championship in his hands.
Although Coach Taoka also wants to win the county championship with a record of winning all three games in the joint finals, he cares more about Uozumi's health.
Wow~
As Uozumi was substituted, the entire audience spontaneously cheered for him, including Xiangyang's reserve players.
In addition to admiring Uozumi's fighting spirit, they were also relieved.
Without Uozumi, Xiangyang has a high probability of winning this game.
On the contrary, the Hainan team became as depressed as if their parents had died.
Everyone in the Hainan team knows very well that unless a miracle occurs, elimination will be waiting for them.
