Chapter 20: Immortal Hainan
Hainan made adjustments after the timeout. In fact, the problem Hainan is facing now is that Ah Shen, one of the main scorers, was completely frozen, while Ah Shen could not limit Takuya at all. On the other hand, Muto, who is responsible for defending Fukuda, was also terrible by Fukuda. Although he can also score under Fukuda's defense, Muto is not a very powerful scorer, and his shooting rate is not high.
Hainan has not been abandoned at the moment, and the big reason is Mu Shenyi's strength. Although Xiandao's defense is very rigorous, there is still no way to face A Mu's forced entry.
After Gaotou paused, he did not come up with any decent solution. He could only encourage him and let Amu strengthen his attack.
However, Hainan did not adjust, but Lingnan changed. Before, Qingtian could occasionally shake off the defensive scores on the Chi with flexibility and speed. Now, with the cross-country, which is about the same height as him and is even a little shorter than him, Qingtian can no longer shake off the defensive target, and the scoring efficiency is reduced again.
As for Muto, who could score on Fukuda before, after being defended by Ikegaki, his scoring efficiency became extremely low. After all, Ikegaki has always been a famous defensive expert for Ryonan before. His defensive strength on the outside is definitely not low. For Muto, who is about the same height as him, his weight and flexibility, Ikegaki's limit is very successful. In the next half, only Matsushi Ichi and Takasaki Ichima can score points.
The scoring ability of the two people is not as good as that of five. With the connection between Sendo, Lingnan's players were well-organized, and Takuya even shot three-pointers in a row. As he said at the beginning, today, his hands were very hot.
At the end of the first half, the score was widened to 16 points, and Lingnan led 45-29.
"Haga...Haga..." Sendo sat in the locker room seat, gasping loudly, keeping his eyes on Kanagawa's strongest player in the first half and having to connect the team's attack. He was physically and mentally exhausted.
"Xiandao, can you still hold on?" Tian Gang saw it and looked at him worriedly.
"I think it's OK, but I may not last until the end of the game." Xiandao answered a little hesitantly. The first time he worked so hard on the defensive end, the physical energy consumed by defense was far greater than the offense.
"Or why I'll defend Maki Shinchi in the second half. I want to play against the strongest player in Kanagawa!" Suddenly, Takuya, who was sitting in the corner, suggested.
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Takuya, as if confirming whether he was joking or serious.
"Why do I think of this? I am the strongest person in Lingnan's defense. I don't say that Xiandao's defense is definitely not as good as me!" Takuya saw that everyone's eyes seemed to be questioning him, and said to others in a tone of unyielding. Takuya has a lot of confidence in his defensive skills. He occasionally feels bad at shooting, but he can't defend. He was able to occupy a regular position for a long time before, and the bigger reason is because of his outstanding defensive skills.
"Since you said that, you will defend Amu in the second half." Tian Gang nodded to Takuya, and he also remembered that the practice game that Takuya played when he first came in was very limited. If he was only more offensive than Mu Shinichi.
"OK!" Takuya agreed.
"Then, Fukuda, you appear in the second half, and you have to defend Muto in addition to attacking. Xiandao, you have to keep a close eye on Ah Shen. The defense is like this, and the attack is still like the first half. Do you understand!" Tian Gang asked loudly when he said the last sentence.
"Understood!"
At the beginning of the second half, Yuzhu still jumped and won. Futian, who had been silent for half the first half, showed his power again.
He cut into the penalty area without the ball again, received a pass from Xiandao, and shot at the basket.
"!" Gao Sa's horse at the basket came quickly to make up for defense. Futian's shot was hit, but Futian was very tenacious and tried hard to get the ball back. Then a fake shot of the shot. Although Gao Sa's body was not tricked to jump, his body stiffened for a moment. So he was slowed down when the defense jumped and was scored by Futian's shot.
"Well done! Futian!"
"It's so awesome! I'm shooting! Ohoh!" Lingnan's substitute cheered hard for him.
At this moment, Futian felt unprecedented satisfaction in his heart. Isn’t what he most longed for the cheers in the audience now? I believe that there will be more people cheering for him during the national competition.
"It doesn't matter, let's catch it slowly." Amu's luck was very stable. Although he was 18 points behind, he could not see any nervousness at all.
The next moment, when he arrived at Ringnan's half, it was a little strange because the person who defended him was replaced. Looking at Takuya who was defending him, Amu also knew his terribleness. The freezing of Ah Shen in the first half showed his defense very well.
"The posture is good, but can you guard me?" Although Takuya showed good strength in the first half, as Kanagawa's number one, Amu inevitably brought a hint of contempt.
He bent down to the right again and broke through, trying to forcefully cut into the penalty area like in the first half.
However, this time the opponent is Takuya Maeda, not Akira Sendo.
Scream!!
The friction between the sneakers and the floor made a harsh sound. Amu's cutting in was blocked by Takuya. Although Amu's strength was very strong, Takuya's strength was even stronger!
Takuya pressed his chest against Amu's shoulder. Amu struggled to hit back, but he still couldn't cut into the penalty area. Amu used his force to hit back again, and even Takuya was knocked back. However, the power was increased, and Amu ignored the protection of the ball. During the collision, Takuya's hand quietly passed through Amu's armpit and gently poked the ball.
The ball is intercepted!
Lingnan's fast attack, Futian scored another two points.
"This kid! Not an ordinary person!!" Although it was only a failure of an attack, Amu was already sure that the other party was a person of the same level as him, no, or stronger!
The score difference reached 20 points. After the old Hainan players, they all remembered that in the national competition last year, Shanwang was pulled to the score difference of 20 points in the second half, and finally lost with regret.
Even Amu couldn't help but panic. No matter how mature he looked, he was just a high school student after all.
Bang!
Just as Amu was in a state of desperation, Qingtian, the most unyielding person in Hainan, broke through Futian alone and forced a slam dunk on Yuzun, causing Yuzun's second foul.
"We will not always rely on Senior Mu alone!! Don't underestimate the king Hainan!!" After the slam dunk, Qingtian yelled loudly, as if he wanted to vent all the discomfort in his body.
"Haha, I was reminded by my juniors. I am really incompetent!" Sometimes, a lot of experience may not be a good thing. A Mu's experience is that he was pulled away by 20 points and there is almost no possibility of catching up. However, a single-celled creature like Qingtian does not care about the difference in points when he is excited, and will only attack and score.
"It's only 17 minutes, you can easily catch up with this distance!" After a few dozen seconds, the fighting spirit in Amu's eyes was ignited again.
The winner is not decided yet!
Bang~
