In the first half, Kishimoto often assisted Hanagata to double-team Uozumi, and Nanretsu was the main attacker. The two of them lost a lot of energy.
If you don't increase the rest time, it will be difficult to maintain it until the end.
Hanagata: Coach, what about me?
In Coach Kitano’s view, Uozumi was obviously skilful in the first half, and will definitely strengthen his personal offense in the second half. He plans to try it out with a lineup of four long players.
In the second half of the jump ball stage, Uozumi once again easily beat the ball to Sendō.
Since it was a lineup of four long men, in order to contain Yuzhu, Xiangyang even resorted to a second and third defense.
In the second and third zone defense, the two players on the upper line stand at the two ends of the free throw line, the two players on the outside of the lower line defend one step inside the three-point line, and the middle person guards the basket and stands in the 3-second zone.
The second and third defenses focus on grabbing rebounds. As long as the opponent shoots, the five players can immediately reclaim the penalty area and protect the rebounds.
At the same time, multiple people can double-team Yuzhu as quickly as possible.
In fact, Xiangyang was also gambling.
Xiangyang's two outside targets are mainly Sendō and Ikegami. As for why Itakura was left alone, it was mainly because Itakura's three-pointers were not stable enough.
"ball!"
Uozumi slowly came to the lower position, leaning on the flower shape, and reaching out to Sendao for the ball.
"bring it on!"
Hanaxing shouted loudly, and while trying to cheer himself up, he lowered his center of gravity in an attempt to resist the coming violent impact.
Without hesitation, Sendō successfully passed the ball to Uozumi.
Before Uozumi could take action, the nearest Takano immediately double-teamed him.
Peng ~
Uozumi leaned forward, and Hanagata's expression changed. Even though he lowered his center of gravity, his feet still couldn't stop retreating. He was still no match for Uozumi Ichigo.
In an instant, Uozumi turned around quickly, and then changed direction in front of his body. It was obvious that his body was very large, but it gave people the impression of being quite flexible.
Takano wanted to stop him, but he was caught by the fish like a wooden stake and broke through instantly.
The other Xiangyang players wanted to help defend, but Yuzhu rushed too fast, and they could only watch as Yuzhu scored with a dunk.
Bang~
The basketball stand shook violently for several times, and Chairman Lingnan was frightened by the sight, fearing that the basketball stand would collapse again.
This is all money!
Uozumi easily scored two points. To him, scoring was like searching for something. Double-teaming didn't mean much to him. It was no different from eating and drinking.
"Come on, you almost guarded me!"
Before turning back to defend, Uozumi left these words.
Hanagata and Takano's expressions instantly turned ugly. They wanted to refute, but looking at Uozumi's unusually strong back, they finally made no attempt to refute.
The Xiangyang team launched another attack. Due to the relationship between the four leaders, the run-and-gun tactic might not be possible.
Hasegawa is okay, but the speed of Takano and Nagano does not meet the requirements of coach Kitano.
In this way, Xiangyang chose positional warfare.
Fujima held the ball past half-court and immediately called Takano for a pick-and-roll.
Takano ran up and gave Fujima a high-quality pick-and-roll, blocking Xiandao.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fujima rushed forward with the ball.
"This guy is here again!"
Naito secretly thought to himself, and faced Tengzhen bravely.
He kept warning himself that this time he would not dare to jump no matter what.
Fujima gave it a try and found that Naito was very vigilant. He immediately gave up the idea of committing a foul and easily broke through Naito in a small way.
Compared with Uozumi, Naito's defense is like a sewer. He can defend the inside well, but his appearance is not good, and he suffers from experience.
Before Yuzhu came up to help defend, Fujima made a pull-up jumper.
Huh~
Using his personal abilities, Fujima easily scored two points.
Hua Hua Hua~
The audience cheered because it felt like Fujima was echoing Uozumi from a distance.
Ace vs. Ace, the audience likes this the most.
Yuzhu shook his head and slowly walked towards the front court again.
To reduce physical loss, the pace must be slow, and the fewer rounds, the better for him.
Soon, Uozumi once again exerted its strength on the offensive end.
Hanagata was like a newly married daughter-in-law, not an enemy of Uozumi Ichigo at all. Once again, he easily broke into the penalty area, and then hit Takano with a small hook.
Takano became anxious and slapped Uozumi's arm with his right hand.
All~
The referee's whistle sounded.
Huh~
The basketball fell into the net again.
On the free throw line, Yuzhu easily hit the free throw and scored 2+1.
Offense and defense transition!
Fujima once again chose to play in singles, and after using the breakthrough to force Xiandao back, he immediately pulled the basketball and made a skillful step-back jump shot.
Sendō hurriedly stepped forward to block him, but before he could take off, Fujima had already shot the basketball in his hand before he reached the highest point.
This can be said to be Fujima’s specialty!
Huh~
Fujima hit a three-pointer to bring the score back.
"Let's see how long you can last!"
Uozumi remained calm and stepped into the frontcourt at a controlled pace.
Soon, Yuzhu stood still and reached for the ball again.
Hanagata tried to push from behind, but the result was that it didn't move at all, and it was a completely useless effort.
Sendō immediately passed the ball, and Uozumi hit the flower shape with his back again.
Hanagata quickly lowered her center of gravity lower than before.
Peng ~
Hanagata still took a step back involuntarily, but it was much better than before.
However, this is just Yuzhu's temptation.
After stopping, Hanaxing gritted her teeth and faced him again.
Peng ~
This time, Uozumi used 80% of his strength.
Hanaxing felt a powerful force coming towards her, her feet were suddenly suspended in the air, and she flew backwards, falling to the floor in a panic.
While Uozumi was hitting the flying flower shape, Takano and Nagano finally arrived and double-teamed Uozumi.
Yuzumi changed direction and strode toward Nagano on the right.
Nagano bravely came forward, but was knocked back by Uozumi.
Takano was blocked by Nagano, and by the time he got around, Uozumi had already rushed into the penalty area and scored a layup.
Takano was helpless about this, after all, who made them not fast enough.
Fujima said with a very solemn expression: "If three people are not enough, then four or even five people will do it!"
Three people double-teamed him, but Yuzhu solved it so easily. It was even easier than last year, which is enough to show Yuzhu's strength.
"Xendao, you and Ikegami switch defenses. Ikegami, Fujima will be left to you."
Before Xiangyang attacked, Uozumi immediately asked Sendō and Ikegami to switch defenses.
Compared to Ikegami, Xiandao's defensive skills are somewhat inferior, relying more on physical fitness and focusing most of his energy on organizing offense.
Under Yuzhu's order, Xiandao reluctantly switched defenses with Chishang.
In terms of Xiandao's height, he is almost as tall as Nagano.
Fujima stepped forward with the ball. Takano and Nagano wanted to open up the defense, but the Lingnan players remained calm.
Except for Hasegawa, Takano and Nagano's open mid-range shots are really not very good, so there is no need to pay attention to them at all.
