All their preparations were wasted in an instant.

The intelligence they had painstakingly collected and compiled was now of no use at all.

Their intelligence was useless, but May's intelligence was very useful.

Xiao Taozi's collection and analysis abilities are much more advanced than the other party's.

Tiandao and the others didn't watch it, but the coaching staff did and arranged targeted defensive tactics in advance.

After getting into position, Kumamoto Iwa tried hard to get the ball.

That's how basketball works. If you can't defend me, I don't need to change and I can just beat you to death.

Obviously, Teiko had a plan to deal with it.

As soon as Yukio Kasamatsu dribbled across half court, he found that Teiko's defense had tightened.

but.

"Exactly what I want!"

Yukio Kasamatsu and his head coach had the same idea.

They have encountered similar situations many times in the round-robin tournament. No one can ignore a low-post killer like Kumamoto Iwa.

If the other party retreats, they will be defeated and will never be able to reach this point.

And the one who helped them reach this point was Yukio Kasamatsu.

Kasamatsu Yukio, who was dribbling the ball slowly and observing the situation, suddenly sped up.

His outstanding explosive power allowed him to soar from 0 to 80 in an instant.

It was almost a replica of Tiandao's previous offense, a quick stop and jump shot after taking a step forward.

In the anime, Kasamatsu Yukio is very good at pulling up and shooting jump shots, which is a testament to his excellent physical coordination.

"Successful!"

This shot was completely within his best rhythm.

Yukio Kasamatsu felt that he was in excellent form today and that this ball would most likely go in.

But immediately, the screen went black.

The audience who followed the show immediately realized something.

Sure enough, the next second a ray of white light flashed across the dark screen, like the light of dawn piercing the darkness.

"untie!"

"untie!"

"untie!"

The barrage of comments followed the whispers of the Heavenly Dao, and colorful "solutions" occupied the entire screen.

The next second, with a "bang", the basketball hit the floor hard.

The moment Kasamatsu Yukio combined the ball, Tiandao destroyed his ball first.

In the camera, Tiandao had his back to the camera, his right arm stretched across the air, and he cut the basketball away with lightning speed.

Yukio Kasamatsu, who was facing the camera, had an expression of disbelief on his face.

He lowered his head with difficulty, and in a trance he seemed to see a dark monster face. When he looked again, Tiandao had disappeared.

Chapter 68: Full Firepower

"Return to defense!"

While Kasamatsu Yukio was stunned, their head coach had already started yelling on the sidelines.

You ask what is the most feared style of play of Teiko this year?

Not their pick-and-roll, nor their modified triangle offense.

What people fear most about Teiko is their defensive counterattack!

From the preliminaries to now, Teiko's average score through counterattacks is an astonishing 26.9 points, more than double the average.

Averaging nearly 30 points per game, with an efficiency of up to 90%!

It can be said that any team that wants to defeat Teiko must guard against their fast break counterattacks.

As soon as Kasamatsu Yukio landed, he turned around and started running wildly.

But he found that Teiko's players were faster than him and rushed towards the front court.

They are extremely fast and are always faster than their teammates.

Soon Teiko got a chance to play 4 against 3 in the frontcourt.

Kumamoto Iwao's weakness was fully exposed in this counterattack. When Murasakihara rushed into the penalty area, Kumamoto Iwao had just crossed the half-court.

This is the weakness of the floor-based heavy center, who cannot defend against counterattacks.

The monster suddenly rose up, overlooking the entire court and covering the entire basketball hoop.

Tiandao's palm was wrapped in black flames and he threw the ball towards the basket.

"Oh!"

With a loud bang, Murasakibara successfully slammed the ball with both hands in an alley-oop.

Without Kumamoto Iwao, no one on the other side could match Murasakibara.

They also have a powerful low-post weapon in Teiko.

4: 2!

Teiko overtook with ease.

Tiandao turned around and used his signature grandfather stroll to defend.

As he passed by Kasamatsu Yukio, he said to him, "Congratulations! That pull-up jump shot you just made will definitely be one of the top ten plays."

Tiandao especially likes to talk trash on the court. He is happy when his opponents are angry, and he feels double satisfaction!

Kasamatsu Yukio is not stupid, of course he knows that the way of heaven is in yin and yang himself.

How can he make it to the top ten plays if his own shot is ruined?

Is this the background of the Top Ten Goals?

This is exactly what the Way of Heaven means.

There was no big screen at the scene, so Yukio Kasamatsu couldn't see clearly what had just happened.

However, he had studied Tiandao's game videos and knew that he, like other players who played against Tiandao, was unknowingly intercepted by the opponent's lightning-fast cut-off ball.

"What a great timing for this steal!"

"No wonder he averaged 8.8 steals per game in the qualifiers. Tiandao's excellent wingspan allows him to defend a larger area than most perimeter players."

"Offensive players have to be careful with every choice they make when facing his defense."

The two commentators on the sidelines were watching Tiandao's game for the first time, and they were both shocked by this genius who emerged from the Tokyo area this year.

The fans were all cheering Tiandao's name, and he had more cheerleaders than all other teams combined.

Many women were attracted by his beauty, and even though they knew nothing about football, they all came to the scene to cheer for Tiandao.

When Shirogane Kozo saw this, he calmed down a little.

Although the game started off badly, with a violation in the fight for the ball, the opponent then easily scored 2 points.

But at the moment, it seems that the rhythm is still in Teiko's hands, and the situation is in his favor.

The people of Kanagawa could not defend against their tsunami-like attack.

The score was reversed, and Kasamatsu Yukio became more cautious.

He did not continue to work alone. He has never been a selfish player like Tiandao.

The opponent dodged and attacked, and Tiandao had no way to easily steal the ball.

But the seeds of fear had already been planted in the other person's heart, and next time he faced himself, Kasamatsu Yukio would have to be extremely vigilant.

They continued to pass the ball to Kumamoto Iwa.

However, his close-range jump shot unfortunately missed.

Murasakibara was still not used to this kind of rhythmic inside game. He felt that the piece of pork belly in front of him was too weird, and he could only rely on reaction defense to interfere with the opponent.

There's a sense of déjà vu of European players facing off against American players.

Many times when you look at European players, they are not fast and cannot fly, but they can score through changes in rhythm.

This kind of player gives fans the impression that he plays very smartly.

Coach Yo and East 77 are the representatives today, and an earlier group of players also include the demon sword Ginobili and others.

Murasakibara now seemed to be dark and hard, being played around.

After preventing this attack, Teikou immediately counterattacked.

You rely on the fat guy under the basket to fight for position, so we can naturally bully your fat guy who runs slowly and counterattack.

There is no absolutely invincible tactic in basketball, nor is there any such thing as style restraint. Whoever plays well will win.

However, this time, Kasamatsu Yukio and his team returned to defense in a timely manner, and they were obviously prepared.

Teiko used tactics again, Nijimura Shuzo, Tendou Keigo, and Midorima Shintaro formed a triangle position to complement each other.

This time, Midorima gave Tiandao an off-ball screen, and the two ran away in staggered positions.

Tiandao ran to the corner without stopping. Seeing that the opponent was following closely, he cut into the inside.

In this way, most of the defenders were taken away by him, and Nijimura Shuzo got a perfect opportunity to play one-on-one.

Captain Teikou immediately took action, forcing the opponent to attack again. Unexpectedly, as soon as they did so, Nijimura Shuzo found the monster on the field and passed the ball to him immediately.

This time it was Tiandao's turn to get the chance to play singles.

Kasamatsu Yukio and others felt that they were being fooled, but they didn't dare to let go of any of Teiko, as doing so would mean giving away points.

Tiandao scored another 2 points with a jump shot, and he recorded data in the first three attacks. His efficiency is simply ridiculously high.

"Excellent tactical positioning and selection. Kanzaki Junior High School was struggling to cover both ends. Their defense was clearly no match for Teiko Junior High School's triangle offense."

The commentator immediately brought up the topic of triangle offense, and another person followed up by asking what triangle offense was, and then explained the core and ideas of this tactic to the audience.

The coach of the Kanzaki team called the first timeout less than 2 minutes into the game.

Their defense was wrong from the start in this game and they had to make changes.

Defend tightly!

This is the best defensive strategy against the triangle offense, and the NBA has proven it long ago.

The triangle offense relies heavily on passing and running between players to create opportunities, and when defending, more pressure must be put on the ball handler.

This gives Midorima a chance to shine.

Steve Kerr's three-point shooting percentage during his time with the Bulls was an astonishing 51.5%.

Is this his true level?

Of course not. The reason he was able to shoot with such a high percentage during his time with the Bulls was that other teams were forced to adopt tight defense and put pressure on the ball handler in order to deal with the Bulls' triangle offense.

In this way, Steve Kerr, who is lurking on the outside, always gets a great shooting opportunity.

And for Midorima, who has a superb shooting talent, can his shooting percentage reach that level?

Chapter 69: Jordan can pass the ball, how to play it?

As the best three-point shooter in the game, Midorima's open three-pointers never disappoint.

After he received the pass from Tiandao, Midorima made a steady shot on his first throw of the game.

"Shh!"

It was not the anti-aircraft cannon-style three-pointer of the future, but there was already a hint of it. The basketball flew high into the air and fell into the basket like a meteor, splashing waves of white waves.
