The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master

Chapter 149 A Wonderful Transition Between Offense and Defense

The score was tied, and it was so stalemate at the beginning, which really surprised many people.

"Now you know how powerful our Kanagawa is!"

"Hahaha, our second place in Kanagawa can also win all of Japan!"

"That number 11 is pretty good!"

"He looks very handsome!"

"Shobei! Shobei! Shobei!"

The sudden cheers came from the Kanagawa fans half.

But the cheers had just started when Sanno turned around and hit the inside. Morishige Hiroshi still hit Akagi under the basket and already took the lead again.

8:6.

With Shohoku's possession of the ball, we can now see how Shohoku responded to Sanno's tactics of blocking Miyagi.

It was Rukawa Kaede who still received the ball, and the original small forward was actually pulled to the point guard position.

Tsuchiya Jun's strength is seriously underestimated. As early as the summer league, he and Morohoshi were hailed as players who had the hope of challenging Sawehita Eiji. Unfortunately, they failed to compete with Sawehita in the end and were all beaten by Hayashi. Dong's dazzling limelight was completely obscured, and they did not gain the honor that should have belonged to them.

After returning from training in the United States, Jun Tsuchiya's strength has obviously been greatly improved. In the eyes of more professional people, Jun Tsuchiya has firmly surpassed Eiji Sawabita in the summer league.

But even so, Rukawa Kaede, who was facing him, still didn't miss a beat.

Ball control, speed, wide vision, and a stable mentality that has never had even a slight fluctuation in his expression since the beginning of the game. Not to mention Jun Tsuchiya, even Goro Domoto on the sidelines can't see through Rukawa Kaede. It feels like this is not the same person at all as the so-called 'rookie lone wolf' in the data collected by Sanwang.

Jun Tsuchiya could not stop his playmaking attack.

It can prevent him from breaking through, but it can't cut off his ball. It can restrict his perimeter, but it can't stop him from passing.

With him as Shohoku's offensive engine, Mitsui Hisashi and Miyagi played mismatched pick-and-rolls with him, making Shohoku's overall offense look quite smooth.

A misplaced three-pointer by Hisashi Mitsui was blocked, but unfortunately the feel of the game when he first came on the court did not seem to be adjusted to its optimal level.

Bang!

The ball hits the front of the basket and pops up.

Morishigehiro under the basket has already occupied a favorable position. Akagi's matchup with him was almost completely destroyed, and he was tightly restricted behind him.

Takenori Akagi's entire face was flushed as if it was congested.

When he faced NBA rookie Hill on the streets of Yokohama, the feeling of powerlessness was even stronger than it is now. It is impossible to use willpower to close such a gap, but it does not mean that he has nothing to do, let alone Doesn't mean he's useless.

He can't grab the position...but he can create opportunities for his teammates.

That is to resist Mori Shigehiro's foot plate!

Morishigehiro's lower body is very stable at this time, but taking off requires the force of the lower body and the shift of the center of gravity. If someone is firmly holding up your lower body, then if you want to stand firm, you must keep the center of gravity depressed. If you dare to jump, the moment your center of gravity shifts, you will be lifted up by the opponent.

At this time, Mori Shigehiro felt that he couldn't jump, but it didn't matter, the position had been firmly obtained, and the guy behind him was unable to do anything else. He only needed to pick up the ball... But the next second.

A red figure used a back turn to throw away the defender, and jumped high into the paint from the left diagonal.

This guy jumped so high... It felt like his head was almost at the same level as the basket. With his extraordinary wingspan, he grabbed the bouncing basketball and dunked into the frame.

boom!

The rim trembled, and the extra dunk was scored, 8:8 tied!

Tied again! It's No. 10 from Shohoku again, and it's on Morishigehiro's head again!

Half of the Kanagawa area in the stands was completely excited.

If one ball is luck, what about two balls?

The spectators from other places were stunned.

Is this Xiangbei team so strong? Didn't they say that they lost Xiangyang by more than 100 points in the county preliminaries? this……

"Shobei! Shobei! Shobei!"

"Come on red-haired boy!"

The cheers for Shohoku in the stands were already in full swing. Nobunaga Kiyota was also stunned: "Damn it... did you really beat this Shohoku team by 100 points?"

"Hahaha! Because we are stronger." Hanagata Toru laughed.

"It's because this Shobei team is much more complete than when they played against us." Lin Dong said with a smile: "Rukawa Kaede switched to point guard, and the effect was surprisingly good."

"It's starting to gain momentum. The Mountain King seems to be a little stunned and feels like it's going to be suppressed."

"It's not that easy." Lin Dong said, "Look, the Mountain King has changed his formation..."

Shh!

"Sanno Industrial Replacement!"

No. 5 Masahiro Nobe was replaced, replaced by No. 6 Matsumoto Minoru.

"Masahiro Nobe's feet are not flexible enough, which is a fatal weakness when facing Sakuragi, and Sakuragi's support for the inside is the main reason why Shohoku is currently playing smoothly." Lin Dong said with a smile: "They This time we’re going to target Sakuragi.”

"Matsumoto Minoru's defense seems average, right? He may not be able to guard Sakuragi."

"But his speed is not slow. It will be difficult for Sakuragi to get rid of Matsumoto Minoru just like he just got rid of Masahiro Nobe. And as long as he does not lose his position, Mori Shigehiro in the basket can steadily beat Akagi, and he only needs to separate a little. With Yu Li and Minoru Matsumoto assisting in guarding Sakuragi, it will be difficult for Shohoku to retain its current inside advantage..."

Mountain King's possession of the ball.

It can be seen that Goro Domoto explained something to Minoru Matsumoto off the court just now, and Sanno's focus on the offensive end has also changed.

Fukatsu, Matsumoto Minoru, Tsuchiya Jun, and Morohoshi all stretched to the three-point perimeter, leaving the inside space completely to Morishigehiro.

These four all had baskets on the outside, but Shohoku didn't dare to let them go, so a one-on-one situation between Mori Shigehiro and Akagi Takenori formed under the basket.

Sanno's attack strategy has remained unchanged, which is to first destroy Xiangbei's will, snipe at their starting point, and undermine their morale.

Now that Xiangbei is frequently succeeding on the inside, the mountain king will hit your inside line!

After the space opened up, he made a direct pass. Morishigehiro held the ball and knocked Takenori Akagi away half his body with a back top. After turning around, he jumped on the spot and launched a two-handed dunk. There was nothing fancy or difficult about it.

10:8.

On the defensive end, Minoru Matsumoto's entangled defense against Sakuragi immediately highlighted his tactical advantage.

This time, Rukawa Kaede, Miyagi and Hisashi Mitsui used a misplaced pick-and-roll, and their dazzling movement blocked a mid-range jumper.

But Sanwang is Sanwang after all. With top stars and hard training in the United States, even if Xiangbei has a strong ability to seize opportunities, Sanwang's ability to make up for mistakes is still top-notch.

Jun Tsuchiya, Morohoshi and Kazunari Fukatsu, who are already familiar with the cooperation of these three, also responded quickly and their misplaced defense was just right. Jun Tsuchiya's personal interference made Hisashi Mitsui still hit the mark with this shot.

Sakuragi Hanamichi wanted to repeat his old trick of cutting to the basket to grab rebounds, but Minoru Matsumoto followed closely but did not give him any space to cut out the basket. Four people were crowded together under the basket.

And when the number of people inside the confrontation became balanced again, Mori Shigehiro's advantage came into play.

Akagi can help Sakuragi grab the position, and Morishigehiro can also help Matsumoto Minoru... Among the four people huddled together, the three who are best at rebounding did not touch the ball, but Matsumoto Minoru took advantage.

Wow...

There was an uproar in the arena, and the Kanagawa fans were very sorry.

Minoru Matsumoto, who got the rebound, made a long pass and Sanno's counterattack started, but Shohoku's retreat defense was not weak at all.

Morohoshi Daiden's Tsuchiya Jun was attracted by Mitsui. Tsuchiya Jun attracted Rukawa Kaede's defensive pass Fukatsu Kazunari. Although Miyagi's defense did not lose its position, its strength and height were far insufficient. Even if it did not lose The defensive position seemed to be meaningless, and Kazunari Fukatsu jumped high to the basket.

The ball is there!

A flash of light flashed in Fukatsu Kazunari's eyes, and he made an easy layup, but as soon as the ball came out of his hands, he heard a crisp sound of 'pop'.

Rukawa Kaede!

The moment the ball came into Kazunari Fukatsu's hands, he had already chosen to abandon his opponent, Jun Tsuchiya. Apparently, he was sure that Fukatsu would definitely defeat Miyagi. At this time, he chased after him and delivered a big nail plate. He actually hit the ball directly onto the backboard.

Use your wide palm to catch the ball with one hand, and you will already have the ball in your hand when you land!

This is no longer blocking a shot, this is called catching a shot!

Fukatsu Kazunari's face was filled with shock. Not to mention the terrifying bounce, this Shobei ace's defensive awareness was simply...

The previous Sannos had fully advanced, and Takenori Akagi was in their final position. Compared with everyone else, his movement speed was slightly slower. At this time, he had just reached the three-point line in the frontcourt when he returned to defense.

Rukawa Kaede, who picked up the rebound, did not hesitate, and with a swing of his arm, he passed the ball directly to Takenori Akagi in the frontcourt.

Akagi understood, looked at the height of the basketball's leap, turned back and ran toward the frontcourt.

The confrontation with Mori Shigehiro made him feel frustrated for several minutes. The opponent was indeed too strong, but the opportunity came through perseverance, and now it was finally his turn!

At this time, he had rushed to the free throw line and saw that the basketball had fallen.

But with the sound of "dong dong dong dong", a figure as terrifying as a locomotive rushed from behind and jumped up high in front of Akagi.

Shigehiro Mori!

With a height of 203 centimeters and an incredible take-off height, Morishigehiro looked like an aerospace aircraft carrier in Akagi's eyes, and he actually caught the ball in mid-air!

This time, not only the people in Xiangbei were shocked, but even Mu Shenyi, Xiandao and others on the sidelines couldn't help but twitch their eyelids slightly.

A word flashed through several people's minds involuntarily, and then they couldn't help but glance at Lin Dong next to them: They are all monsters...

Lin Dong narrowed his eyes slightly.

The speed of chasing him was very fast, and his awareness of interception was also good. What was even more surprising was that the guy had jumped at least 90 centimeters just now, and his height was probably over 350 centimeters.

You know, Shigehiro Mori weighs 106 kilograms and has terrible athletic talent... No wonder he is so highly praised by the Japan Basketball Association and hailed as the hope of Japan's future basketball. This guy feels like he is indeed an outlier among Asian yellow people. Maybe he can actually enter. The potential to play inside in the NBA... Of course, with his aggressive style and height, it is impossible to succeed as a traditional center in the NBA. I feel that power forward may be more suitable for him.

The ball changed again, and Mori Shigehiro did not choose to pass the ball. He controlled the ball and rushed forward, his body running like a rumbling train.

With this kind of momentum, everyone would subconsciously avoid it. Mitsui Hisashi who was directly in front did not dare to resist. He chose to avoid it while reaching out to pick out the ball from the side.

Unexpectedly, this 203cm big guy actually dribbled the ball from behind. Although his speed slowed down slightly, while avoiding Mitsui Hisashi's big hand, the next step was to combine the man and the ball, and chase the cicada in three steps. Xiangbei's basket jumped high.

Rukawa Kaede jumped up to intercept him, but Morishigekan ignored him.

A slam dunk that shocked the entire audience!

Rumble…

The basket shook violently, and Rukawa Kaede was knocked backwards and fell to the ground.

The score on the electronic scoreboard also jumped again.

12:8.

Let me explain some of the big score differences in previous games.

First of all, this book is written in a realistic style and is not Kuroko's Basketball. The reason why there is such a distorted point difference that often exceeds 100 points is based on two points.

The first one is the original work of Slam Dunk. Brothers who have read the original work know that there are large score differences in the comics. For example, Shohoku Takano is 160:24. This is the score difference given in the original work, and similar scores There are still many differences in the original work.

The second is that I have indeed checked the scores of Japan's high school leagues. The largest score difference I have found so far is the 268-0 score played by Sakura High School in the Japan High School Freshman Cup qualifiers on January 14, 2014. This is There are records on Baidu, they are so cruel and inhumane...

Of course, due to the limitation of not being able to climb the wall, there is not much data that can be found, and big data statistics cannot be done, but I think this score alone should be enough to explain the problem. The disparity between the strengths and weaknesses of Japanese high school basketball is too great. Big, so a big score difference is normal. It is not a distortion of the data in order to flatter the Mountain King and the protagonist in the book. It is just to respect the original work and the actual score results that I can find so far.

In addition, similar scores will only appear in the Japanese high school league. After the slam dunk chapter is over and the follow-up plot is entered, whether it is the Nike Summit, the World Championships or the NBA, this kind of score difference will never appear again. The author is not low-level enough to have to Use this difference to reflect the degree of strong and weak tension.

Hereby explain.
