At two o'clock in the afternoon, the game between Xiangbei and Hainan officially started.
Due to the focus of the match, this one attracted a large number of spectators and the stadium was almost full.
Among them, many are students from Hainan High School Affiliated.
Unlike Xiangyang, the students from Hainan High School did not wear school uniforms and looked like ordinary spectators.
Hainan Affiliated High School is ultimately the overlord of Kanagawa. In addition to Hainan students, there are also a large number of supporters, and the momentum is extremely huge.
Compared with Hainan, there are very few audiences and students supporting Xiangbei. We are almost completely overwhelmed by the support for Hainan and cannot make waves at all.
This seems to be a neutral gymnasium, but it is actually the home stadium of Hainan Affiliated High School.
Such a game atmosphere will inevitably affect the mentality of Xiangbei players.
Huh~
Suddenly, on the wall near Hainan's bench, a student spread out a rolled-up battle flag.
This is a purple battle flag with the words 'Always Victory' written on it.
As for Xiangbei, unlike Lingnan, Xiangyang, and Hainan, they have no battle flags at all.
As for the future 'Rukawa Ming' and 'Fire Man', these two can only be regarded as personal characteristics of the battle flag, not the team's battle flag.
At this moment, Uozumi and others were sitting in the audience behind the Shohoku bench.
Since it was the focus of the game, Coach Tianoka didn't care and led the players to watch the game in person.
Uozumi's eyes fell on Akagi. Akagi would be nervous every time he faced a competition. He didn't know if he was feeling better now.
On the surface, Akagi is not abnormal, but is more dignified than ever before.
On the Shohoku bench, the old coach Anxi was holding a thermos cup, and the transparent frame reflected the light from time to time.
Not far away, Mitsui was giving instructions to his teammates.
I have to say that Mitsui is becoming more and more like a leader.
To be honest, Mitsui is more suitable to be the captain than Akagi.
Without waiting long, the game finally started.
In this game, Hainan High School did not underestimate the Xiangbei team and chose to go all out.
Unlike the county competition, the Shohoku players did not sleepwalk this time, and Akagi was no longer too nervous and did not perform abnormally.
At the beginning, both sides mainly tried to test.
Matsushita Asahi held his chin and asked nonchalantly, "Strange, the tactics of the Xiangbei team always feel familiar?"
Chishang seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Isn't this our regular tactic in Lingnan!"
Not to mention, Xiangbei's tactics are almost exactly the same as Lingnan's.
This is a typical one-star, four-shot tactic!
With Akagi as the axis, it is paired with four shooters with shooting abilities.
Although apart from Akagi and Mitsui, the other players in Shohoku are not very strong, they can still find a few players with the ability to shoot open shots.
Among them, there are several players from Takeishi Junior High School. They are freshmen who joined Shohoku with Mitsui.
Since Mitsui did not withdraw from the basketball club, these freshmen from Takeishi Junior High School naturally stayed, which more or less enhanced the strength and foundation of Shohoku.
Of course, there is no comparison between Akagi and Uozumi, which is equivalent to a poor man's version of one star, but it has to be admitted that it has a miraculous effect against Hainan Affiliated High School.
Due to Kazuhiro Ikeda's withdrawal from the basketball club, Takenori Akagi was very efficient in singles.
In just five minutes, Gao Touli changed three insiders in a row, but none of them stopped Takenori Akagi.
If Ikeda and Hiro were still there, Akagi would not be so relaxed.
However, just like the previous year, Hainan High School's inside line is worrying. It has good quality role players, but it lacks a strong enough inside core.
Basketball in this era was full of confrontation. There were no body hair fouls in later generations, and the rules of basketball were more inclined to the inside.
If the 'Son of JDZ' played in the NBA of this era, he would probably be beaten to death.
On the court, Akagi knocked away Takasago Kazuma again and easily scored two points.
This was already the third time that he had eaten Takasago Kazuma alive.
Due to the frequent duels with Uozumi, Akagi may have reached the level of plot years now.
As for Kazuma Takasago, he certainly hasn't reached the stage of his drama years.
With each increase and one decrease, the gap is further widened.
At this moment, Akagi realized the 'happiness' of Yuzhu.
It turns out that scoring is so simple.
It must be said here that Takasago is one of the top four centers in Kanagawa. Due to his talent, Takasago cannot limit the performance of the other three.
Shohoku's offense is okay, but the defensive end is very weak. Akagi and Mitsui's defense is good, but their teammates are not.
If Akagi hadn't been in the penalty area, the Hainan team would have quickly gained the upper hand.
However, the good times did not last long. Seeing that Akagi was unable to do anything one-on-one, Gao Touli immediately implemented the double-teaming tactic.
Akagi is not Uozumi. He can deal with one person now, but it is more difficult to deal with two people, which greatly reduces his efficiency.
As a last resort, Akagi relied on his advantage in vision to constantly pass the ball to his teammates who were in open positions.
Unfortunately, the mentality of these teammates seemed to be affected by the atmosphere on the scene, and they missed shots one after another.
Of course, this is also related to their own strength.
Many players are like this. During training, they are like gods descending from the earth. They can shoot whatever they want, but once it comes to the game, they directly transform into Milan's little blacksmith.
Seeing that the situation was beginning to go against Shohoku, coach Anzai immediately called a timeout.
Although Coach Anxi is in a state of retirement, since there is hope of winning, he naturally does not want his team to lose the game.
"Gene Era"
After the timeout, the game resumes.
Xiangbei made no substitutions, but increased cooperation in the offense and started to play pick-and-rolls.
Mitsui and Akagi's pick-and-roll cooperation immediately gave Gao Touli a headache.
Originally, Gao Touli asked Takamiya Motoyu to face Mitsui specifically, and it did achieve great results.
After all, Motomo Takamiya was Kanagawa's double MVP last year. Even among the top players, he is the top one.
In terms of strength, he is still above Mitsui, especially with far more competition experience than Mitsui.
However, with the pick-and-roll between Mitsui and Akagi, Takamiya Motoyu was blocked by Akagi's wide body, and Mitsui was freed.
Mitsui has top shooting talent. With the fleeting opportunities obtained by Akagi's pick-and-roll, he can either rush forward with the ball or shoot, which can often achieve good results.
With the liberation of Mitsui, the situation on the field became anxious again.
For a time, no matter the scene or the score, it was difficult to tell the winner between the two sides.
Soon, Coach Gao Tou stood up, came to the sidelines, called Amu over, and gave him face-to-face instructions.
In the next round, the field changed again.
Takamiya Motoyu no longer kept an eye on Mitsui, but this task became Makoto Shinichi.
As soon as he met Mu Shenyi, Mitsui's eyes suddenly changed and he was instantly full of fighting spirit.
Kanagawa has four new stars in the top three. Except for Uozumi, the other three are defenders. Since they are facing each other, Mitsui naturally wants to compete.
