Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 134 Taking Wuyuan lightly, Sakuragi Flower Road's ambition!

Jinguji Budao just scored a goal, and the whole venue erupted into astonishing cheers, and waves of sound flooded into the venue, drowning everyone.

"Ohhhh, I fell in front of me, I was put down by Jinguji Budo!"

"It's enough that Xiangbei replaced him a long time ago. We came here to see him!"

"The worship just now was too smooth, I couldn't react at all."

For a while, Yinggi Hanamichi was surrounded by the audience's admiration. Yinggi Hanamichi didn't have a deep understanding of basketball, but he could clearly distinguish what was strong and what was weak.

In a matchup, the one who stands on the field and shoots must be strong, and the one who falls on the ground must be weak.

"Senior Jinguji is very powerful, and his ability to combine balls and balls should be the most powerful in northern Hunan."

"Even if it's Rukawa Kaede." The last sentence Haruko just said in her heart and didn't say it out of her mouth.Yingmu Huadao turned his head suspiciously and asked:
"The ability to combine human and sphere? What is the combination of human and sphere?"

Haruko heard Sakuragi's question, and explained with a smile: "Simply speaking, it is the ability to control basketball while fully utilizing one's own physical condition."

"Under normal circumstances, basketball players' physical fitness is very good, but because of the need to dribble, pass people, and pay attention to the situation on the court, it is often impossible for players to maximize their physical fitness during games. .”

"The speed at which you run 100 meters is completely different from the speed at which you run 100 meters with the ball, and the speed at which you run 100 meters while dribbling the ball while looking at the scenery."

"The stronger the ability to combine man and ball, the more he can use his physical advantages during the game."

"Someone said before that if a football player with strong physical fitness comes to play basketball, he will be able to hit the ball well, but that is unrealistic, because even if the physical fitness is good enough, it is impossible without excellent human-ball combination ability. become a great player."

"As for the player's ability to combine man and ball, one depends on talent, and the other depends on training."

"In this regard, Senior Jinguji is the best."

Haruko explained a lot to Yingmu Huadao, and she said so much because she hoped that Yingmu Huadao could pay attention to this aspect.Although Haruko has not been in contact with Sakuragi Hanamichi for a long time at this stage, Haruko knows very well that Sakuragi Hanamichi belongs to the category of players with excellent physical fitness.

For a player like this, if he only relies on his body for food, the road to basketball will definitely not be very long.

"The ability to combine human and ball, so that's what it is."

Yingmu Huadao looked at Jinguji Budou with a clear expression on his face, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Sure enough, I still want to become an athlete. If I can be like my big brother, are all these cheers for me?!"

"If so, Haruko"

Sakuragi Hanamichi was serious for a few seconds, glanced at Akagi Haruko who was standing beside her, and began to dream.

On the court, Budou Jinguji, who threw a goal, began to return to defense with his teammates.It is not a big deal for him to overwhelm the opponent, and the Wuyuan player is not the first in his basketball career so far.

Shonhoku returned to the defensive position. They used a man-to-man defense. Only Takenori Akagi and Satoru Kakuda stood on the inside line.

Miyagi Ryota’s opponent has been replaced. He is a third-year student from Wuyuan. He is about 175cm tall. Although he is a little taller than Miyagi, the opponent’s speed is not fast and his strength is average. Miyagi’s defense is very easy. .

Jinguji Budo and Mitsui Kotobuki defended one on the outside. Both of them are top players. On the defensive end, they restricted the opponent to death. It was very difficult for the player defended by Budo to even connect the ball.Deming, who was defended by Mitsui Shou, could only try his best to carry the ball to prevent Mitsui Shou from robbing him.

However, it is impossible to break through, and even passing the ball has become extremely difficult.

In the 30-second attack time, Wuyuan High School didn't have a second left. In the last few seconds, the basketball was passed to the inside after several passes.Wuyuan's insiders rushed to make a move, and what greeted him was Akagi Takenori's overwhelming hand.

"Don't try to succeed!"

"Oh!"

Accompanied by Akagi Takenori's loud shout, followed by a muffled sound, the basketball fell rapidly, hit the floor, and bounced towards the outside line.

Miyagi Ryota has quick eyes and quick hands, and quickly caught the ball in his hands.

"Fast break!" Miyagi, who got the basketball, roared, and immediately saw Mitsui Hisashi and Jinguji Budou rushing forward.

Miyagi Ryota raised the ball with one hand and threw the basketball towards the frontcourt, which was firmly caught by Mitsui Hisashi.Mitsui Shou, who got the basketball, turned his head and glanced at Budo Miyaji during the rapid advance, and gave him a look.

Sensing Mitsui Shou's gaze, Jinguji Budo slowed down slightly and fell behind Mitsui Shou.

The tacit understanding between the two is so good that they can complete simple communication with their eyes.

Jinguji Budao and Mitsui Shou were too fast, and they reacted very quickly. By the time everyone in Wuyuan realized that they were going to return to defense, Budao and Mitsui Shou had already crossed the center line. One after the other, they rushed towards Wuyuan's inner line.

Mitsui Shou crossed the three-point line with the ball, then bypassed the free throw line from the left, and then threw the ball in the direction facing the basket. After throwing the ball, Mitsui Shou stopped directly and turned to look. to the basketball.

There, Jinguji Budou, who was a few meters behind Mitsui, had just stepped over the free throw line. As the basketball went into the air, Jinguji Budou also jumped up, caught the basketball in the air, and glided towards the basket.

"Dangdang!"

With a loud noise, Budo Jinguji slammed the basketball into the basket with one arm.And as Jinguji Budao fell back to the ground, cheers erupted from the stands again.

"Ohhh, so strong, as expected of Jinguji Budo!"

"This is it! This is it! This is what I come to watch!"

"It doesn't look like a high school student's style of play at all, this guy is too strong!"

The audience cheered wave after wave, and the cheers seemed to break through the roof of the arena.

Looking at Jinguji Budou's slam dunk, Yingmu Huadao felt goosebumps all over his body, and the blood flow speeded up unconsciously. His heart stretched and let out a "thumping" heartbeat sound. At this time, Yingmu Hanadao could Hear his own heartbeat clearly.

"This slam dunk! This is the slam dunk that big brother said!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi looked at Jinguji Budo with yearning eyes. At this time, he put himself in the position of Jinguji Budo, narrowed his eyes slightly, and felt the cheers around him, an indescribable sense of joy Burst out from the bottom of my heart.

The charm of basketball, even the audience, will be deeply attracted.

"That's amazing, Sakuragi, Senior Jinguji is really amazing!"

"Did you know? In the high school games I watched before, no one has ever been able to slam dunk like Jinguji-senpai."

"Senior Jinguji, he is definitely the strongest player in Kanagawa Prefecture. No, there is probably no player in the whole country who can do it!"

Akagi Haruko was also enthusiastically ignited by Jinguji Budo's lob cut, and was cheering at this time.The excited Haruko subconsciously grabbed Sakuragi's arm, shaking it.

"The whole country?!"

"No player in the country can do it?!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi murmured what Haruko had said, his eyes widened slightly, a strange brilliance burst out from his pupils, his fists were clenched tightly, and his gaze immediately became firm.

On the court, Budou Jinguji began to return to the field amidst the celebrations of his teammates.

Both Mitsui Shou and Budou's performances were relatively mediocre. This is not the first time they have completed this kind of cooperation. Looking at the people in Wuyuan who were a little lost, both Mitsui Shou and Jinguji Budao knew that the next game , I'm afraid it will become extremely easy.

Although Jinguji Budao only played for a while and only scored two goals, the people in Wuyuan have already realized that their own team cannot limit Jinguji Budao at all.Facing such a terrifying opponent, Wu Yuan and these ten-year-old youths have no will to fight at all.

On the side of the court, Wuyuan's coach, Supervisor Hayama, also realized the gap, and he had already given up the idea of ​​winning. Now he only thinks about how to adjust the mentality of the players so as not to affect the subsequent games.

On the court, Wuyuan's players were captured by Budo Jinguji's slam dunk, and the unmotivated players performed even worse on the offensive end. The ball holder was found by Ryota Miyagi and completed a steal.In an instant, the people in northern Xiangbei formed a red torrent and flocked to Wuyuan halfway.

With Ryota Miyagi stealing a layup and scoring the ball one-stop, Shohoku High School scored another two points.It only took about 1 minute for Xiangbei High School to make a substitution, and they had already scored six points in a row.

"Don't give up, the game has just begun, why do you all show such expressions!?"

"Cheer up, everyone cheer up! The game is far from over!"

Deming, a sophomore at Wuyuan High School, received the ball in the backcourt and shouted at his teammates while holding the ball forward.His words seemed to have some effect, everyone in the Wuyuan cheered up and began to reorganize the attack.

"Oh? Is Wuyuan High School still a player with backbone?"

"But...basketball can't be won with backbone and slogans."

On one side of the stand, Coach Tian Gang from Lingnan High School folded his hands on his chest and said softly. His words seemed to be a verdict for Wuyuan High School.

"Wuyuan's dying struggle just made the fight between Jinguji Budo and Xiangbei less boring."

"In this game, the strength of the two teams is not equal."

"If the team does not have star-level players, it is impossible to be Xiangbei's opponent."

"From the current point of view, we are the only ones who can fight Xiangbei."

"Hainan. Maybe it's also possible."

Coach Tian Gang said, looking towards the opposite side of the stands, where a group of players from Hainan were sitting on the seats near the entrance of the passage to watch the game, and each player had serious expressions on their faces.

On the court, the Wuyuan players who inspired a little fighting spirit were soon crushed by the cruel reality. Under Xiangbei's defense, Wuyuan couldn't find any good opportunities to make a move.

Several shots in succession were also forced to force shots due to the time limit of the attack. This kind of hasty attack had no way to break through Xiangbei's defense line.As the game progressed, the point difference between the two teams was quickly widened.

And unlike Wuyuan, Xiangbei High School's offense is more blooming. Jinguji Budao played very selfishly in the first 5 minutes of the game. He basically played on his own when he received the ball, but when the point difference widened by more than [-] points Afterwards, the style of martial arts changed, and he began to make balls for his teammates.

Jinguji Budo often breaks through to attract the opponent's attention, and then passes the ball to his teammates.Most of the passes are to Mitsui Hisashi and Akagi Takenori, and they complete the finish.

There are not many opportunities for Kakuda, because in this level of competition, Kakuda's role is too small. Only when he is free, Budo will think about passing it to him.

At the end of the first half, Xiangbei High School led the opponent by nearly 52 points with 24:[-].

In the second half, Jinguji Budo and Kakuda Satoru were replaced, and Chiba Oishi and Kiguro Koyan were replaced.In the middle of the second half, coach Anxi made another personnel adjustment until the end of the game.

With the whistle of the referee, the score between Xiangbei and Wuyuan was fixed at 91:55, and the game was won by a big score.In the first round of the semi-finals, Xiangbei High School won its first victory.

After shaking hands with their opponents, a group of players from Xiangbei exited the field under the leadership of coach Anxi, and then returned to the stands through the player channel, preparing to watch the next game.

The match between Lingnan High School and Hainan was immediately followed by the match between Xiangbei and Wuyuan.

In the middle of the second half of the Xiangbei game, the Lingnan players in Hainan had already gone to the waiting room to make adjustments.When the Xiangbei game came to an end, Hainan's Lingnan had actually entered the field through the player channel, but it was just standing on the edge of the field to watch the Xiangbei game.

After the game, the two teams entered their respective rest areas and began to warm up.

"Haruko, the game in Xiangbei is over, won't we go?"

"Watching the game, I feel a huge force in my body, and I can't wait to start training!" Sakuragi Hanamichi said to Haruko after the Xiangbei game ended. .

"Don't worry! There will be another match between Lingnan High School and Hainan."

"These two teams are also very powerful teams. Hainan is known as the 'King'. It has been the champion of the county competition for more than ten consecutive years, and it is truly powerful."

"As for Lingnan, I heard from my brother that this year is also terrifyingly strong. The match between their two teams must be very interesting."

"The two biggest opponents in Xiangbei today are these two teams."

Haruko Akagi heard that Hanamichi Sakuragi wanted to leave, so she quickly grabbed the corner of Sakuragi's clothes and pointed to the two teams that were warming up in the stadium.

"Champion for more than ten consecutive years?!" Yingmu Huadao was also taken aback by Hainan's name, and was taken aback.Suddenly, Yingmu Huadao noticed that there were spectators hanging banners in the stands not far away.

Many of those spectators were students from Hainan or Lingnan schools.

"Look, Sakuragi, the No. [-] in Lingnan High School is called Shinomiya Tianye, the MVP of junior high school."

"The one with the pointed hair is called Xiandao Akira. I heard from my brother that he is the super ace that Lingnan specially poached from Tokyo."

"The tallest one is Uozumi Jun, who is called a monster, and he is the center forward of Lingnan. According to my brother, that person is two meters tall."

Akagi Haruko is a die-hard fan, even if she is a member of Lingnan, she is very familiar with it, introducing players to Sakuragi Hanamichi.And those gaudy titles of Lingnan High School players firmly attracted Yingmu Huadao.

"MVP super ace monster" Sakuragi murmured, his thoughts flew away again.

At the same time, the heated atmosphere in the stands also cooled down. Some of the audience went to the bathroom, some ate snacks, and quietly waited for the start of a new round of competition.
