Slam Dunk: Muguro

Chapter 45: Crossing You is Like Crossing the Road in the Morning
"hateful!"

Murasame's face was full of resentment and anger. He hammered the floor hard, making a dull sound.

At this moment, his eyes revealed confusion, and a strong sense of frustration surged like a tide, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

From the moment he touched basketball, he had never been so embarrassed.

"Murasame, stand up!"

Murasame looked up and found the captain, Shinichi Yano, standing in front of him.

“Failure is not terrible, what is terrible is losing the courage to stand up again!”

Shinichi Yano's chicken soup was like a flash of lightning, breaking through the haze in Murasame's heart.

Murasame took a deep breath, his eyes gradually became firm, and he stood up from the ground.

Seeing the changes in Murasame, Shinichi Yano nodded with satisfaction.

However, he was in a heavy mood because the Xiangbei shooting guard was too strong. He was so strong that he reminded him of the core player of Hainan High School - Takamiya Motoyu!
Last year, Takamiya Motoyu led the team to win the county championship and won the county championship MVP and scoring champion titles.

Under the leadership of Takamiya Motoyu, Hainan High School once again advanced to the top four in the country after several years, which fully demonstrated his strength.

"However, he is still some distance away from Takamiya Motoyu!"

Shinichi Yano shook his head. During last year's winter competition, he had faced the powerful Takamiyamoto Yu.

He could feel the gap between Murasakibara and Takamiya Motoyu. Perhaps the two were similar in offensive skills, but in terms of physical fitness, Takamiya Motoyu was obviously superior to Murasakibara.

Takamiya Motoyu has top-notch physical fitness, and Murasakibara is undoubtedly inferior to him in this respect.

Soon, Miuradai launched another attack, but this time it ended in failure.

Akagi overpowered Shinichi Yano to protect the rebound.

Akagi, who focused on defense, was still very reliable and caused a lot of trouble for Miuradai's offense.

The players of Miuradai seem to be at a very high altitude, but they are like Takano and Nagano of Shoyo. They have the advantage of height but their attacking range is very narrow.

Akagi's defense is solid and aggressive, and most importantly, his lateral movement is also excellent.

As long as Akagi stays under the basket, the scoring efficiency of the Miura players will be greatly reduced.

In the attack of the Shohoku team, Murasakibara received the pass from Nobuhiko Okamoto again and was in a triple threat posture.

"This duel is not over yet!"

Murasame cheered up and took a step away from Murasame.

This time, Murasame's breakthrough was even cleaner and neater. Murasame subconsciously moved sideways, but Murasame dribbled the ball from behind and passed it from the other side.

Murasame quickly turned around and chased after him, but this time he failed to catch up.

Shinichi Yano wanted to assist in defense, but was fooled by Murasakibara's fake breakthrough. By the time he reacted, Murasakibara had already entered the three-second zone and scored a layup.

6:8
In just over a minute, Murasakibara scored 8 points in a row and reversed the score in one fell swoop.

"Murasame, passing you is like crossing the road in the early morning!"

Before returning to defense, Murasakibara left a piece of trash talk.

This sentence was said by Payton to Grant Hill during his rookie period, and it has become a classic in NBA trash talk.

Grant Hill entered the NBA in 1994, and this year is still 1992, which means that this trash talk will become Murasakibara's "original".

Murasame was so angry that he almost lost his mind. He couldn't help but clench his fists and stare at Murasaki's back fiercely.

You can imagine how destructive this piece of trash talk is.

"Huh, this guy's ability to attack with the ball seems to be even stronger than Mitsui Shou!"

Murasame took a deep breath and subconsciously looked at Mitsui in the audience.

As a student of the same grade, he naturally knew Mitsui, and they even played against each other in the junior high school county competition a few months ago. Mitsui at that time left an indelible impression on him.

But even such a Mitsui was not as impressed as Mugure. This does not mean that Mugure's strength has surpassed Mitsui, but refers to the ball-holding offense.

Mitsui is also stronger than Murasakibara in many aspects, such as three-point shooting, organization, and defense.

Of course, in addition to attacking with the ball, when it comes to fighting, Mitsui, who can only vent his anger on trash cans, is also no match for Murasakibara.

At this moment, Mitsui mentioned by Murasame was shocked.

Mitsui was stunned as he watched Murasame defeat him on both offense and defense.

No, is Murasakibara so strong?

Murasakibara's strength far exceeded Mitsui's expectations. He originally thought that Murasakibara could only run and shoot, but he didn't expect that Murasakibara's ball-holding attack was even better than his.

"This rate of progress is too exaggerated. It's only been a month!"

Mitsui was shocked by Murasakibara's speed of progress and at the same time developed a strong sense of competition.

"I will be able to return to the team in a few days, Mumu, and then we can fight it out!"

For a moment, Mitsui's eyes were as hot as fire, revealing a strong desire to win.

At this time, the game on the field is still going on.

This time, Miuradai finally scored a goal.

During the Shohoku team's attack, Murasakibara received the pass from Nobuhiko Okamoto again.

Looking at Murasame who was ready for battle, Mumu said with a hint of joking: "Didn't you say that you would limit my score to 10 points? Now I have already got 8 points!"

Naturally, Murasame would not be polite to a bad player like Murasame.

This was not just a declaration, but also a psychological blow to the opponent, making Murasame feel unprecedented pressure.

For a moment, Murasame's breathing became noticeably heavier.

Before the game started, he vowed to limit Murasakibara's score to less than ten points, but the slap in the face came as fast as a tornado.

In just over a minute, Murasakibara scored 8 points, making his defense pale and powerless, and his face was almost swollen.

This is even worse than Hasegawa in the plot year. At least Hasegawa successfully defended for most of the game, and was finally beaten by Mitsui who was in low health and in explosive state.

Taking advantage of Murasame's unstable mentality, Murasame broke through with the ball.

Murasame tried his best to block and attempted to use his strong body to fight against Murasame, but no matter how hard he tried, Murasame still easily broke through with his dazzling cross step.

Murasaki increased his speed to the extreme, and even if Murasame tried his best to catch up, the distance between them did not shorten much.

Murasame's breathing became unusually rapid, his emotions were somewhat out of control, and his eyes revealed despair.

At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind, which was to stop Murasakibara from scoring at all costs!

The next moment, Murasakibara made another quick stop and jump shot.

His movements were done in one go, as if he had practiced them countless times, and every detail was so perfect.

The moment Murasame jumped, Murasame became bolder and rushed up regardless of anything, hitting Murasame's handsome face with his right elbow.

His movements were rough and sudden, trying to prevent Murasakibara from scoring by committing fouls.

At the critical moment, Murasakibara used his extreme reaction to block with his left hand.

At the same time, his right hand still maintained the shooting posture.

Before completely losing his balance, Murasakibara threw the ball.

beep~
The referee's whistle sounded sharply and clearly.

bang~
Murasaki fell to the ground, but his eyes were still fixed on the flying basketball.
