Chapter 238 Lingnan vs. Changcheng (Part )
In the last round of the group stage, because of the issue of qualifying, there were more people in the audience.
"We were in the quarterfinals last year. Although Ryonan played well in the first two games, we were able to win beautifully against such a team, so Changcheng High School must be the one to advance." Some viewers thought that the winner would be Changcheng High School. In the first two rounds of the group stage, Changcheng had an average net win of 32 points, especially the team's ace Mikoshiba, who averaged 27.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2 blocks per game. His outstanding performance gave them great confidence.
"Although Changcheng was in the quarterfinals last year, Ryonan is also strong, with Yuzhu in the interior and Godai, a three-point shooter, on the outside. It will be difficult for Changcheng to limit this third-year inside-outside combination, and the second-year point guard Miyagi Ryouta's speed is unmatched. Ryonan may very well be a dark horse." Some viewers supported Changcheng, while others expressed different opinions.
"Zebei, why did you come all the way to watch this kind of game?"
"I came to see Ryonan's immortal path"
"Sendoh? He only averaged 9 points and 3.5 assists per game. His performance is average."
"Senior Kawata, don't be fooled by the statistics. Sendoh was the only one I could call my rival when I was in junior high school. He is very strong. I dare say that this game is the time for Sendoh to give full play to his strength," Zebei said with a firm face. Because Sanno's game is at 4 pm. So Sanno has time to watch the game. And the Kanagawa teams with eye-catching lines in the first two rounds are their objects of observation. Zebei took the initiative to ask to watch the game of Ryonan. Kawata also remembered that there was a famous center forward in the Ryonan team, so he brought his brother to follow Zebei to watch the game. Domoto and others went to watch the game of Hainan
"It seems that this Sendoh is no ordinary person." Since the always proud Zebei could say that he was very strong, Kawada couldn't help but pay attention to Sendoh.
In the Changcheng lounge.
"Although Ryonan only made it to the national competition after the fourth place in Kanagawa through the play-offs. But we can see from the first two rounds that this team is very strong. So we can't take it lightly. We must put in 100% of our energy to deal with Ryonan. The main attacking point of the Ryonan team is Yuzhu. I don't expect you to be able to block Yuzhu on the defensive end, but Wudai on the outside must be locked down for me, and you must never let Wudai's three-pointer go. The inside and outside connection between Yuzhu and Wudai must be cut off. As for Yuzhu, his movement speed is relatively slow. You have to use speed to attack him, and this depends on you, Mikoshiba. Taga Akira, as mentioned before, you can use your mid-range shot to move Yuzhu away from the basket. As long as Yuzhu is away from the basket, his power will be greatly weakened. As for Miyagi, Matsuoka, your defensive strategy is to defend against shots and not let go of breakthroughs. Don't let Miyagi speed up easily." Changcheng's coach was making pre-match arrangements.
Ryonan locker room
"Today is the most crucial battle. If we win, we can advance from the group stage. Yuzhu, you will still be the main force of the offense at the beginning, but I believe that Changcheng will carry out targeted defense against you. Once you encounter a double-team, you can attack independently according to the strength of the double-team. On the defensive end, your position is under the basket, and you must never leave the basket. Nanxiang, your task is heavier. If Changcheng's inside players jump shot from the outside, you must follow them. Don't let them get a feel for the shot." After arranging the tasks for the inside players, Tiangang took a sip of water and continued, "Sendoh, once Yuzhu's inside offense is blocked, the burden of offense will be handed over to you. After suppressing the two games, I will give you the autonomy to attack in this game, and you can attack at will. I will never dare to interfere. It's up to you, Sendoh."
"Leave it to me, coach." Sendo's eyes sparkled.
"Okay, let's go"
"Let's go, today we have to eliminate our opponents and enter the knockout round." Yu Zhu was the first to open the door and walk into the arena. At the same time, Chang Cheng also walked into the arena from the other end.
The atmosphere was heated, and when the two teams entered the field, thunderous cheers rang out.
After warming up, the competition is about to begin.
First of all, the host introduced the starting lineups of both teams:
陵南身着蓝色球衣：中锋，4号鱼柱纯202cm大前锋:13号南乡洸一郎192cm小前锋:7号仙道彰190cm得分后卫:6号伍代友和180cm控球后卫:8号宫城良田168cm
Chang Cheng is wearing a white jersey: center, No. 7 Taga Akira, 193cm, power forward, No. 4 Mikoshiba, 188cm, small forward No. 9 Yoshida Zejin, 185cm; shooting guard No. 6 Yufune Shun, 184cm; point guard, No. 5 Matsuoka Sueshita, 177cm.
"Beep!" With the referee's whistle, the game begins!
Jump ball! "Snap!" The crisp sound of the ball was enough to decide the winner. The height difference was 9 centimeters, so Yu Zhui jumped the ball successfully.
The basketball was caught by Miyagi, "Take your time, score the first goal." Miyagi slowly controlled the ball and was not in a hurry to attack. Outside the three-point line, Chang Cheng adopted the man-to-man defense rule. Suddenly, Miyagi's right hand, which was still dribbling the ball, suddenly flicked to the left, and an arc passed. The basketball was quickly passed to the inside Yu Zhu. At this time, the opponent's center Duo Heming hurriedly took a small step back to defend, but Yu Zhu took a small step and jumped up to throw the ball as soon as he received the ball. With a crisp sound of falling into the net, the ball went through. 2:0 Ryonan was the first to score by Yu Zhu.
Chang Cheng quickly kicked the ball off, Matsuoka Sueshita held the ball and passed it to Tang Chuan. Seeing that there was no chance to shoot, Tang Chuan quickly passed the ball to Mikoshiba. After Mikoshiba received the ball, he jumped on the spot without any extra movements and threw the ball out.
"What a fast shot!" Nanxiang's defender was a step slower and could only watch the basketball fly over him.
"Go in!" Mikoshiba had a confident smile on his face. A moment later, as Mikoshiba wished, the ball went into the net, 2:2
"Fast break" Ryonan quickly sent the ball out of bounds, and a figure rushed towards their court with the ball. This person was naturally Ryouta Miyagi. Matsuoka tried to intercept Miyagi, but Miyagi who had already sped up was not so easy to defend. With just a simple change of direction, Miyagi broke through Matsuoka's defense.
"Hurry back to defense!" Mikoshiba shouted to his teammates. He was also very fast. When Miyagi just stepped into the three-point line, Mikoshiba had already returned to defense in front of Miyagi. "Do you think you can just stare at me?" Miyagi sneered and threw the ball over his head with both hands. The basketball flew towards Chang Cheng's basket. At the same time, a tall figure jumped up at high speed, caught the ball with both hands, and dunked the basketball into the basket. 4:2
"Nango, Miyagi. You performed very well." Shigeichi Tanaoka sat in the coaching seat and nodded with satisfaction.
However, Ryonan's outstanding performance has also stimulated one person, Chang Cheng's trump card - Mikoshiba, his eyes are full of fiery expressions.
"Pass it!" Mikoshiba said to Matsuoka Sueshita who was in control of the ball.
Without any hesitation, Matsuoka Sueshita immediately passed the ball to Mikoshiba, and the other players of Changcheng began to move quickly.
After receiving the ball, Mikoshiba rushed forward and tried to break through. Nanxiang in front of him moved his feet to block the direction in which he could break through. However, Mikoshiba only made a fake move, strangling the figure who was trying to break through, and quickly jumped up, raising the basketball in his hand high, drawing a high arc, flying towards the basket, "Shua!" With a crisp sound of entering the net, the basketball fell steadily into the basket. 4:4
What a fast shooting speed! Miko Chai is indeed a nationally renowned master
In the next round, Ryonan attacked and Yuzhu needed a good position. Miyagi saw this and immediately passed the ball to Yuzhu.
"Snap!" Mikoshiba rushed out from the side and reached out to steal the ball. "Matsuoka" Mikoshiba, who had completed the steal, passed the ball directly to Matsuoka who was already running down the field.
"It's not that easy to launch a fast break." Miyagi has already caught up with Matsuoka
"This guy is really fast," Matsuoka muttered softly.
"Here" At this time, Mikoshiba had already caught up, and Matsuoka handed the ball to Mikoshiba without hesitation. Mikoshiba received the ball and prepared to shoot
"You can't shoot" Nanxiang jumped up and said, "Oh no, it's a fake move" Nanxiang realized he was fooled as soon as he jumped up. Sure enough, Mikoshiba collected the ball, ran to the basket, and scored 4:6 with a layup.
Ryonan attacks. Although Yuzhu gets the ball, he is double-teamed. Yuzhu tries to force the ball but the ball does not go in. Taga Akira grabs the rebound, Toshiki counterattacks, and Mikoshiba gets the ball again.
"Pay attention to No. 4" Captain Changcheng made 3 of 3 shots at the beginning, and Ryonan did not dare to relax the defense against Mikoshiba at all.
"Do you think I'm the only one in Changcheng, Tangchuan?" Mikoshiba passed the ball to the side and a figure outside the three-point line received the ball and made a steady three-point shot, making it 4:9!
