Slam Dunk, Start with a Perfect Three-Pointer

Saw the ball being awarded.

The students were amazed.

"That Shohoku center jumps so fast, it's actually much higher than Hanshin!"

"Hanshin can't jump Akagi! It's the number one center in Kanagawa Prefecture!"

"Shohoku has absolutely no problem with the strength of the center forward, but I don't know the strength of the other players."

There was an instant discussion in the audience.

Obviously, the scene where Akagi grabbed the jump ball directly over Hanshin's head was indeed a bit shocking.

To know.

The strength of Hanshin is also one of the best centers in Shizuoka Prefecture.

Miko Chai was a little surprised.

"Akagi still has some strength, and he deserves to be the captain of Shohoku."

However, there was a smile on the corner of Mikoshiba's mouth.

Shohoku is a little too arrogant.

Although Akagi's strength is indeed very strong.

Kanagawa's No. 1 center is by no means in vain.

But with Shohoku's current roster, what can they do.

Except Kogure is a 3-point shooter you've heard of, who are the other three?

Are they also Shohoku players?

Players who have no chance to play in this kind of county competition.

When facing Chang Cheng, what performance can he perform.

Miko Chai shook his head.

"But he is the only main force on the field. As long as Akagi is defended, the game will be over."

He reminded everyone in Changcheng.

"Defend well and let them see our strength."

Mikoshiba turned his gaze to the auditorium.

The spectators there are the ones who need their attention the most.

Mingpeng Industry and Daiei College.

Especially Shi Mingpeng Industry, but the biggest obstacle for them to enter the quarterfinals.

"In this game, let you take a good look at our Chang Cheng's strength!"

Yu Zichai said secretly in his heart.

Tang Chuan and several people responded.

"it is good!"

The Changcheng players who had already entered the state shouted excitedly.

And Shohoku's rest area.

Ayako patted Kaede Rukawa and the others on the heads.

"Hurry up and cheer up? Even in the away game, we can't lose in terms of momentum.

Ayako took out the previously used ribbon from the package that had been prepared earlier.

"Hurry up, either wave this, or wave me the towel!"

Mitsui left several black lines on his face.

Certain painful memories began to hit his brain again.

He remembered the previous match with Buri.

He watched the whole game from the sidelines, waving the towel with unusual force.

After returning to Shohoku, he got a new nickname.

"Water Fountain Guardian"

This nickname is too ugly, as if it indicates that Mitsui will guard the drinking fountains in the future.

Under Mitsui's strong request, this nickname was not publicized.

But remembering the experience of waving the towel last time, Mitsui still has a big head.

"Ayako, the game has just started, I will play again later."

Miyagi bargains.

After finally being able to take a break off the court, he didn't want to have to do things like waving the towel after the court.

"You don't understand a word!"

Ayako glared at the Shohoku problem child in front of her.

"Well, I think waving a towel is a very happy thing!"

Miyagi picked up the towel and started waving it vigorously.

"Ayako's angry appearance is really scary, it's better not to provoke her."

Kaede Rukawa on the side also picked up the towel drooping around his neck, cheering for everyone in Shohoku.

Although it still looks a little loose.

But letting Kaede Rukawa do this is enough to see the power of Ayako.

"Come on, Akagi! It's that big! Take Changcheng! You are our Shohoku trump card!"

Mitsui, on the other hand, stood up and cheered for the Shohoku players.

Seriously, it's not at all apparent that he didn't want to wave the towel before.

Looking at the doubtful eyes cast by several people.

Mitsui said seriously.

"What's so interesting, hurry up and cheer for our team!"

Ayako couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Excuse me, let's cheer together!"

Tatsuhiko on the side is smiling.

"Sister Ayako is right. Let's cheer together. After all, it was Yasuda and the others who cheered. Now it's their turn. Naturally, we can't be stingy." "

This is what Tatsuhiko has always wanted to instill in every Shohoku player.

No matter who it is, it is a matter of course for the players in the rest area to cheer for the players on the field.

Even the starters and substitute players do have a big gap.

But in the same team, working hard for the same goal.

There is no distinction between high and low.

Mitsui smiled lightly.

"It's natural."

For the idea expressed by Tatsuhiko, Mitsui was the one who accepted the idea the fastest.

He has never felt that he is superior to other players.

This is why Mitsui was able to quickly integrate into the Shohoku team.

Mitsui is not like a third-year senior.

He has no airs at all, and he can joke around a lot, especially with Yingcheng and Yingshu.

Three people, three grades, but their relationship is so iron that people are enviable.

At first, everyone speculated that it was because Mitsui had just joined the basketball team.

After all, he only returned to Shohoku a month before the prefectural competition, and there was a fight.

It may be for these reasons that Mitsui restrained his temper.

But after getting along with each other for a long time, I realized that it was completely different.

He really regards the Shohoku players as his good friends.

"come on! Come on!"

Saying that, Mitsui waved the towel in his hand.

Miyagi looked at the energetic Mitsui, a little surprised.

"This guy is really energetic."

Then also imitating Mitsui, waving the towel.

Come on, cheer for Shohoku.

Auditorium of Mingpeng Industry.

The old man sighed.

"Akagi's physical fitness and technique are good, but compared with you, he may still be slightly inferior."

Mori Shigekan was indifferent.

"Facing me, he doesn't get the slightest chance to attack."

This is Mori Shigehiro's self-confidence.

After watching Akagi's offense, Mori Shigehiro is confident that he can crush Akagi in all directions.

"Then when the time comes, you have to show all your strength!"

The old man nodded with a smile.

He never had any doubts about Mori Shigehiro's strength.

on the other side

Tsuchiya Jun looked curious.

"Looking at the lineup, Shohoku is not an official player. What kind of match will he have against Chang Cheng?"

Although there is still a distance between Osaka and Kanagawa Prefecture.

But a strong basketball county like Kanagawa.

The lists and lineups of their qualifying teams have basically been delivered to every qualifying team immediately.

The main reason is that the basketball level in Kanagawa County is indeed very strong.

Take the year-round Kainan Shoyo as an example.

Kainan went all the way through and went directly to the top four in the country.

If it weren't for the semi-finals meeting the invincible Sannoh.

Kainan has a great chance to become the national runner-up.

Although Shoyo's record is not as good as Kainan's, he has reached the top sixteen in the country.

It can be said.

Every year as long as it can stand out from Kanagawa Prefecture.

The guaranteed result in the country is the top sixteen.

That's why Tsuchiya Jun understands the Shohoku lineup.

field.

Yasuda advances with the ball.

Start organizing the attack.

"Don't worry, score a goal first."

Changcheng point guard Matsuoka Momo stepped forward to defend.

Looking at Yasuda who is a bit shorter. ,

"I can't help but mock, how can I play basketball if I don't have height?"

Yasuda looked serious.

At this height, he can play forward in most teams, but he actually plays point guard.

He dribbles tentatively.

Find the right opportunity and make a breakthrough at the end of Matsuoka.

Matsuoka Suexia looked surprised.

"I can't see it, but I still have some strength. If that's the case, I won't let it go."

turn around

Yasuda is at the top of the arc.

Pass to Kogure.

Kogure catches the ball.

Mikoshiba immediately stepped forward to defend

"Kogure, long time no see. I don't know how your strength is now. I hope you don't disappoint me too much."

"Miko Chai."

Kogure took a deep breath and looked at Mikoshiba in front of him.

"You Chang Cheng can't win this game."

"Can't win?"

Mikoshiba teases Kogure.

"Stop talking big, Kogure, isn't Shohoku just Akagi's one-man team? Is it possible that you can still shoulder the burden?"

Looking at Mikoshiba's mocking face.

Kogure's face was a bit ugly, but he had nothing to say.

When Tatsuhiko and the others didn't join Shohoku before.

It is indeed Akagi's one-man team.

At that time, Akagi was completely all-inclusive.

From offense to defense, he is completely responsible for it alone.

And apart from Akagi, Shohoku's other players couldn't help at all.

Although Kogure has a precise three-pointer.

But once faced with the defense, his three-point shooting rate will be greatly reduced.

It also cannot provide any assistance to Akagi.

This is why Shohoku has not been able to break out of the first round of the county competition.

At that time, Shohoku was Akagi's one-man team.

"But that was before!"

Kogure's eyes lit up and he assumed a triple threat pose.

"The current Shohoku is not the same team as the previous Shohoku!"

With that said, Kogure started dribbling.

The left and right continuum changes direction.

Significantly mobilize the movement of the body's center of gravity.

Although Kogure's dribbling has been done very well.

But Kogure's dribbling is a bit too slow.

Not to mention Tatsuhiko, even Mikoshiba was perfectly responsive to Kogure's dribble.

This level of dribbling.

Miko Chai can't be shaken at all.

"Snapped!"

next second.

Kogure was directly intercepted.

Miko Chai reminded.

"Fast attack!"

Seeing this, Yasuda and others were shocked.

"Oops!"

Hastily returned to defense.

They didn't expect Kogure-senpai to be intercepted on the first ball!

Kogure looked ugly.

"Damn, it's not on the same level at all, the dribble is completely seen through!"

Kogure began to blame himself for still not being skilled enough to handle the ball.

However, Tatsuhiko off the court saw the clues.

It's not that senior Kogure is not skilled enough to dribble.

Of all the players in Shohoku, Kogure's fundamentals should be the best.

Although Kogure doesn't have any basketball talent, he is better at studying hard.

It is also because of very good basic skills.

Kogure can become the second core of Shohoku before.

But not even Kogure himself found out.

He is a player who is very unsuitable for offense with the ball.

In other words.

The most suitable positioning for Kogure is pure

shooter.

The main reason is that Kogure's body is too thin.

A body that lacks explosive power and speed makes it difficult to support him to break through with the ball.

And his too thin body makes it difficult for him to get rid of close defense.

Even the opponent gave Kogure a little physical confrontation.

Kogure was already a little unsteady.

With this kind of physical quality, it is basically impossible to become a big core with the ball.

"."It seems that after the competition is over, we should have a good talk with Senior Mumu about this issue. "

Tatsuhiko secretly made up his mind.

Look back to the field.

Akagi reminded loudly.

"Return to defense!"

After the tackle, Mikoshiba Kazuma took the lead.

Straight to the front field.

Mitsui and the others frowned.

"That's too late."

"Sure enough, it still doesn't work."

Ayako also looked worried, but she still shouted loudly.

"Defense!"

The first ball is the key ball, if it is missed, it will have a big impact on morale.

Tatsuhiko is interested.

"Yu Zichai? It seems that he still has some strength. This ball must be gone."

From the perspective of speed and dribbling alone.

Mikoshiba's level should be about the same as Toru Hanagata's.

Belonging to the bottom of the star players.

Although the offensive end is still fierce, the performance of the defensive end is also remarkable.

But his flaws are still obvious.

Tatsuhiko's voice just fell.

"Boom!"

A slam dunk was successful.

Chang Cheng took the lead to score two points.

The students cheered.

"Chang Cheng! Chang Cheng!"

"It's a good fight, let's fight like this (the king's), let's take down Shohoku in one go!"

"Teach Shohoku a good lesson, Mikoshiba, and let Shohoku know what the top eight in the country are like!"

"Shohoku is too arrogant. If the main players are not allowed to play, the gang will open up 20 points in five minutes!"

"Thinking to win Chang Cheng with just a few substitutes is just a dream come true!"

There were bursts of cheering shouts outside the field.

Mikoshiba had a smile on his face.

"It's so easy, Shohoku is completely vulnerable!"

Chang Cheng players cheered.

"Strike, another one! Captain!"

"The captain played really well!"

"Just guard Akagi later, Shohoku is Akagi's team now!"

Akagi's face was slightly dignified.

Although Miko Chai is arrogant, he still has strength,

You have to find a way to find the rhythm of the attack.

The initiative of the game cannot be handed over to Changcheng High School!

Akagi reminded everyone.

"Don't worry, pass the ball to me!"

Akagi decided to step up and take over the game.

Although Akagi feels very strange.

It seemed like he hadn't said that for a long time.

Since Tatsuhiko Kaede Rukawa joined Shohoku.

Shohoku's offensive center of gravity has slowly moved to the outside.

The inside line has also gradually become a tool for rebounding.

Such an active move to carry the team on its shoulders.

Reminds Akagi of his previous county tourney journey.

Kogure et al. nod the bow.

At this stage, only Akagi can open the situation.

at this moment.

Tatsuhiko suddenly made a strange gesture.

Everyone in Shohoku understood and got ready immediately.

This is a gesture using the triangle offense.

And when Akagi is present.

Akagi will be the only central axis for Shohoku.

This is also a tactic that fully demonstrates Akagi's strength!

The game continues. .
