Chapter 178: Xiangbei vs. Green Wind: End of the First Half
"Damn it!" Qingtian threw the ball down in frustration. The previous ball almost made Qingtian fall. Fortunately, he managed to keep his feet, otherwise he would have been embarrassed.
"Kiyota, calm down. Winning the game is much more important than personal gains and losses, and you still have time. Don't be impatient, just defend well." Akagi comforted Kiyota
"Yes, Captain," Qingtian nodded heavily.
This time Yohei passed the ball to Kiyota again, "Come on!" Rukawa Kaede got into a defensive position. Kiyota made two fake moves, but seeing that Rukawa Kaede was unmoved and just blocked his breakthrough route steadily, Kiyota suddenly took a step back and jumped up to shoot.
"I have seen through your offensive method." Seeing that Kiyota's feet had left the ground, Rukawa Kaede jumped up in an instant, swung his long arms, and pounced towards Kiyota. If Kiyota attacked at this moment, he would definitely be blocked.
"Damn it!" Kiyota knew that he had no chance to score this goal. He also knew that if he forced a shot at this time, the consequences would be terrible. At this time, he remembered what Akagi had said just now. He immediately changed the shot to a pass in the air, collected the ball, and passed it to Akagi from under Rukawa's armpit. This was beyond everyone's expectations, including Akagi who received the ball, but fortunately Akagi was also focused enough and shot immediately. Minggao was caught off guard and the ball hit the backboard.
"Good job, Kiyota," Mitsui also applauded from the sidelines.
"It was actually a pass." Rukawa felt like he was being fooled.
"Snap!" Ebina tried to pass the ball to Rukawa again, "You've passed it to me 100 times, do you think I don't exist?" Mito Yohei saw through Ebina's intention and jumped up to intercept the ball. "Kiyota" Yohei raised the ball, and Kiyota Nobunaga was about to go down.
"Aren't you too?" Ebina jumped up and tried to steal the ball, but Mito Yohei did not choose to make a long pass. Instead, he received the ball and broke through, passing Ebina directly and heading straight for the Green Wind basket. Ebina was also very competitive. After being passed, he turned around and pounced. Although he did not grab the ball, he touched it. When Yohei got the ball back and attacked again, Rukawa and Mike had already rushed back.
"Katsumi's Senior" Yohei passes the ball to Katsumi at the three-point line
"Don't even think about shooting a three-pointer." Mike learned from intelligence that Kemei was a three-point shooter, so he immediately rushed over to block Kemei's outside attack, but Kemei had already shot.
"The shooting posture is wrong, the ball's trajectory is too low. This ball won't go in." Mike made a judgment, and after landing, he immediately turned around to grab the rebound. "Not good, Rukawa Kaede, pay attention to No. 11." Mike turned around and noticed that Kiyota was running to the basket. He suddenly realized that what Kemei just did was not a shot, but a pass.
"Good pass!" Kiyota jumped up and grabbed the ball with both hands. "You can't score!" Rukawa also jumped up and blocked the ball with one hand.
"Boom!" Kiyota pushed the ball into the hoop through Rukawa! Rukawa was still a step too slow to jump, and Kiyota succeeded.
"Wild monkey, this is a good goal. I'm afraid the fox will be mad to death. Hahaha." The red-haired monkey came over and high-fived his fellow monkeys.
In this attack, Ebina did not give the ball to Rukawa who wanted it, but chose to give it to Mike. Rukawa said, "Damn it, you didn't pass it to me." But what Rukawa didn't know was that Yohei and Kiyota were ready to steal Rukawa's pass. Ebina's choice was completely correct. Mike got the ball,
Facing Sakuragi's defense, Mike dribbled the ball slowly and chose to face him head-on. After getting close, he suddenly accelerated and broke through to Sakuragi's left side. Sakuragi moved quickly and tried to stick to him, but Mike was very flexible and quickly passed him with a turn.
"Red-haired boy, I can't let you defend me all the time." Mike Okita passed Sakuragi directly. Akagi rushed over quickly, "How can Xiangbei's basket allow you to run wild?"
Mike smiled, but did not choose to force it. Instead, he passed the ball to Ming Gao who was unattended. As soon as the latter got the ball, he chose to dunk. After the goal, Ming Gao yelled at Akagi.
Xiangbei attacked, Katsumi suddenly started, Pinggu went to defend, but was blocked by Akagi, Katsumi took the opportunity to run out of the open space, Mito Yohei passed the ball to him in time, Katsumi took a three-point shot and hit
In this attack by Lufeng, Minggao came out to screen for Ebina. Ebina took the opportunity to get rid of Mito Yohei and passed the ball to Mike before Sakuragi could help defend. Mike made a jump shot, but a big black shadow appeared in front of him. Akagi made up for it again. Mike was disturbed and missed the shot. Akagi turned around and grabbed the rebound, threw it forward and shouted: "Run!"
Yohei Mito rushed out like a sharp arrow. After receiving the ball, facing the defense of Ebina, he made a fake change of direction and then a ground pass, and passed the ball to the hands of Kemei who quickly inserted. Kemei was unguarded and made a layup in three steps.
You can't score! " Rukawa Kaede suddenly appeared like a ghost, and three fingers of his left hand brushed the ball that had just escaped from Kemei's palm. The ball rolled around the basket and turned out to the outside.
Ming Gao, who had already returned to defense, stopped at the right time, looked up at the ball above, and prepared to jump up and catch the rebound at the moment of falling. Just as the ball was about to fall, "Ming Gao, be careful" Before Ming Gao could react, a black shadow appeared above his head, and then a pair of huge hands grabbed the ball and slammed it into the basket.
"Captain, you did a great job" by Ke Mei
After Akagi scored the goal, he roared at Minggao as a response to what had just happened.
"What a great center," Mike wiped his sweat, he was deeply impressed by Akagi's defense and offense, "but I won't lose to you, I'm someone that NCAA follows." In this attack by Green Wind, Ming Gao tried to single out Akagi, but his hook shot missed due to Akagi's tight defense. But Mike grabbed the offensive rebound before Sakuragi, and once again faced the defense of Akagi and Sakuragi, he shot backward and made a shot.
"Mike has become serious too." Fujisawa noticed the change in Mike's attitude
"Sakuragi, don't be careless, your opponent is very strong," Akagi reminded
"Understood" Sakuragi nodded solemnly
In this attack of Xiangbei, Yohei organized the attack and used Sakuragi's pick-and-roll to pass Ebina. However, just as Yohei was about to break through to the basket, Mike, who followed Sakuragi, stretched out his long arm and "snapped!" intercepted the basketball in Yohei's hand. Then a single fast break
"Foreigner, you can't score" Sakuragi has caught up with Mike
"This red-haired boy is really troublesome," Mike muttered. The chance for a fast break was gone.
"Give me the ball," a familiar voice came from behind, "Rukawa, I'll leave it to you," Mike recognized the voice of Rukawa and passed the ball to him from behind. Rukawa got the ball and dunked it hard to score. Sakuragi's attention was still on Mike, and he had no time to defend against Rukawa.
"We scored a goal." Yohei dribbled the ball to the front court, facing the defense of Ebina, took a step forward with his left foot, and his body center obviously leaned forward. The idea of breaking through to the left immediately emerged in Ebina's mind, but he regretted it as soon as he moved his feet. With a snap, he changed hands in front of his body, started, accelerated, and the speed was very fast. Yohei got stuck on the side of Ebina in just one step. The latter wanted to forcibly pull back his body center of gravity, but the basic laws of physics made him helpless at this time.
"Yohira, be careful." Sakuragi noticed that Mike went over to steal the ball again and immediately reminded his friend, "Boy, just wait for me to steal the ball again." Mike's hand was about to touch the ball in Yohei's hand. "What?" Mike touched the air
"I've noticed you a long time ago, how could I not be on guard?" Yohei passed the ball while moving forward, and the ball fell into Sakuragi's hands. Sakuragi made a layup and ended this attack
Ebina used Minggao's pick-and-roll to break through Yohei and scored a mid-range shot
Kemei missed the three-pointer, but Sakuragi passed the ball to Kemei again in the air, and Kemei made another three-pointer.
Rukawa Kaede faced Kiyota, dribbled the ball between his legs twice, then jumped up and shot the ball.
Akagi was double-teamed this time, the ball was stolen by Mike, and Ebina scored 2 points on a fast break
With the help of Akagi's screen, Kiyota shook off Rukawa Kaede and scored a layup at the baseline
Pinggu's three-pointer was blocked by Kemei, and Green Wind committed an offensive violation
The two sides exchanged blows, and before they knew it, the first half was over, with Xiangbei leading by three points at 47:44 and entering the halftime break.
