NBA: This flower path is a bit strong.

Hanamichi had not expected that his full strength, which he would fully unleash for the first time in the national competition, would be so powerful when applied to rebounding.

Not only did he cause the female commentator to scream in surprise, but even the rebounding expert in the original manga, Masahiro Nobe, who suppressed him for the entire first half and made him unable to grab a single rebound, was defeated by him like this.

On the court, Hanamichi once again used his strength to push Nobe Masahiro away.

He took advantage of the situation, then jumped up and grabbed the backcourt rebound and said:

"Your title as the best power forward in the country belongs to me, and you're 2 years too early!"

Hanamichi retaliated in his own way, using the same trash talk to psychologically attack Nobe Masahiro.

"Damn it, I didn't expect him to be so powerful! I underestimated him!"

"What kind of power forward is the best power forward in the country if he can't grab a rebound?"

Nobe thought bitterly as he returned to defend.

Rebounds are the foundation of his foothold in Sannoh, but now he is crushed by Hanamichi like this!

At this time, Yamato noticed that Nobe Masahiro was uneasy, patted his shoulder and said:

"Nobe! Relax~ Don't be fooled by that kid!"

"Although he has brute strength, he is not as strong as Mori Shigehiro!"

"I'll help you block the ball from now on, just focus on rebounding the ball!"

"I know, Kawada!"

After being comforted by Yamatoda, Nobe Masahiro felt a little relieved.

Thus, the first "forward" in the history of Sanno Industrial Team was born, Yamatoda who is 194cm tall!

When it was Xiangbei's turn to attack, Xiangbei, who was leading, went all out.

[Lightning fast] Miyagi Ryouta relied on his speed advantage and agility to break through Fukatsu's defense and come to the basket.

Facing the backup defense of Masahiro Nobe, he did not show any intention of challenging this [former No. 1 power forward in the country] ~ [Totem Pole].

Are you kidding? Even the sweet-voiced commentator has noticed Hanamichi's matchup advantage! How can I not take advantage of it?

It would be a stubborn act to confront him head-on!

My Miyagi has a mushroom head, not an iron head (baby).

So Miyagi attracted the attention of Nobe Masahiro and then passed the ball to Hanamichi behind him.

After receiving the ball, Hanamichi dribbled and cut into the basket.

It looks like it will be another powerful tomahawk dunk.

Unfortunately, the real boss of Sanno's interior is Masashi Kawata.

But he won't just sit there and watch the red-haired kid on the opposite side destroy his own basket again and again.

He decisively gave up defending Akagi and stood in advance on the path that Hanamichi had to take before his three-step dunk.

At the same time, he happened to block Hanamichi's view of the ball with his "wide" face;

He used his body to cut off Hanamichi's pass to Akagi behind him.

"good chance!"

In fact, Hanamichi's target from the very beginning was not Masahiro Nobe, but the "East African Ape Man" in the inside line of Sannoh - Masashi Kawata.

He believed that after constantly ravaging Sannoh's [Totem Pole] Masahiro Nobe, the [East African Ape Man] ~ [Bald Gorilla] ~ Masashi Kawata, who was known as the [No. 1 High School Center in the Country], would definitely not be able to help but lend a hand. Now the opportunity had come!

I saw Hanamichi standing right next to Masashi Kawata, changing his dunking posture into a layup, and he made the layup with difficulty despite his obstruction!

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the explosive pack layup skill!"

At the same time, the referee blew the whistle:

"Beep~beep, No. 7 of the white team committed a blocking foul. The goal of No. 10 of the red team counts, and one penalty kick is awarded!"

"Great!"

The players on the Xiangbei bench cheered.

Among them, the actions of the water dispenser trio - Kentaro Ishii, Sasaoka Satoshi, and Kuwata Toki - were the most exaggerated.

Some of them waved towels, some cheered loudly, and they arranged the logistics and cheerleading work very clearly.

"It was a close call, he almost blocked my shot! But... everything is going according to plan!"

Hanamichi secretly gave Akagi a "yeah" gesture.

In the subsequent free throw, Huadao also made the extra penalty steadily.

"Beep!" Sanno Industries requested a timeout.

At this point, Masashi Kawata's idea of ​​helping Masahiro Nobe act as a striker ended prematurely before it even began!

And under the foreshadowing of the flower path, a mine was buried in advance, waiting to be detonated later!

Seven minutes into the game, Shohoku led Sannoh 7:21.

Hanamichi scored 9 points and 5 rebounds.

And with the last [Dynamite Layup], they created a [2+1] opportunity and directly stopped the game for Sannoh.

In the commentary room, Miss Julia's eyes were as charming as silk, her soft lips slightly parted, exhaling a fragrance like an orchid:

"Teachers, it looks like...ah...Shohoku...ah~is now in complete control?"

The two experts from the Sports Committee then turned their attention to the competition.

Oki and Shimizu Ken took the tissues handed to them by the assistant.

I secretly wiped my fingers in the blind spot of the video.

Then they started discussing the battle situation based on the data.

We have to say that they are still "professionals". They quickly got into the state:

"Hmm~ No. 10 of the Xiangbei team is called (Sakuragi) Hanamichi."

"Hmm! Hmm? First year of high school, 197cm tall, 90kg in weight."

"This game was his fourth start in this national competition, and his stats in the first three games were... Nani?!"

"What's wrong? Teacher Oak!"

"Teacher Shimizu Ken, look..."

Daiki handed over the data tablet in his hand.

Because of Julia's presence, Teacher Oki's hand accidentally touched Julia's arm, causing the latter to blush.

"Ah, private hemp color!?"

Teacher Oki was able to distinguish between the "big king" and the "small king" under the live camera, so he nodded and apologized seriously.

Julia also responded generously and appropriately:

"It's okay. On the contrary, the two teachers are so focused on analyzing the game, which is really admirable!"

Audiences across the country did not pay too much attention to the serious way these two people communicated.

What they are curious about is what kind of data could make the commentator who came from the Sports Commission so surprised.

Soon, Shimizu Ken explained the confusion to the national audience:

"In Hanamichi's first few games, his averages were 24.5 points, 17.3 rebounds, 8.3 blocks, 6 assists, and 3 steals, all-around data close to a triple-double!"

"Dear viewers across the country, the highest single-game rebounding record in this national competition so far is the 20 rebounds grabbed by Mori Shigehiro of Meiho Industries against Changcheng High School, who is hailed as a basketball treasure that only appears once in a century."

"But the average rebounding data has been broken by No. 10 Hanamichi from Xiangbei High School. As long as he can get 16 rebounds in this game, no~"

Shimizu Ken looked at the 5 rebounds that Hanamichi had already gotten in this game, and then continued:

"It looks like Hanamichi has a good chance of breaking Mori Shigehiro's single-game rebounding record in this game. The young are truly formidable."

“As a senior in the sports world, I can only say that this year’s national competition brought so many surprises!”

When he got excited, Shimizu Ken secretly stretched out his right hand towards...somewhere...!
