With 10 minutes left and a 9-point gap, as usual, Hainan should not be completely desperate, and there is still a chance to fight back, but the atmosphere on the court really made them breathless.
The rhythm of the game is completely controlled by Xiangbei. Although Hainan players are desperately attacking, they are still unable to break free from this quagmire. No matter what attack method Hainan uses, Xiangbei has always grasped the rhythm of the game with ease.
I am afraid that the impact of this kind of pressure will exceed everyone’s imagination. Under such a huge pressure, the first thing that appears is because of the pressure, the physical consumption is greatly increased, and then the muscles will start to become stiff, and the movements will lose their normality. Even the basic offensive rhythm will be lost.
The full-court tactics of the mountain kings will also cause this effect, but the mountain kings play as a whole, while Xiangbei is completely dependent on their personal strength above Hainan!
Xiangbei now has Naruto personally mastering the attacking rhythm. No matter what tactics Hainan uses, even if Gaotou coach calls a timeout and develops different tactics, Xiangbei always keeps his position in order. After all, their strength is above Hainan. As long as it maintains a normal rhythm, Hainan has nothing to do!
The tactics arranged by the head coach can play a certain role on the offensive end. After all, the defensive tacit understanding of Xiangbei is not enough, but on the defensive end, Hainan's strength is still not as good as Xiangbei!
Rukawa and Mitsui can both play Kiyota and Ashin, but the inside strength is extremely different. Except for Amu's ability to restrict Naruto, the other matchups are completely one-sided, although the difference has not been expanded to irreparable. To the point, but the frog is boiled in warm water. Xiangbei is using this cruel method to wipe out Hainan's fighting spirit and confidence a little bit.
beep!
Huh!!
That one is not tall, but his extremely strong body rushed into the inner line of Xiangbei and forced a dunk under Naito's interference.
The referee gestured blankly, indicating that the Hainan captain's score was valid, and at the same time stretched his finger to No. 15 in Xiangbei.
"Red No. 15 thugs foul, the score is counted, and an extra free kick!"
Naito was depressed, but he didn't dare to argue with the referee, so he could only raise his hand honestly.This time, in addition to the two in the first half, and the previous loss to Qingtian, Naito Tetsu, a bull from Xiangbei, has also received his fourth foul. If there is another foul, Naito can go straight off the field. rest.
Although this Donkey Kong has already suffered four fouls and is facing the fate of his end at any time, coach Anzai is not in a hurry. He has not arranged tactics, nor has he gone to the referee's bench to apply for substitutions. So he allowed Naito, who had already committed four offenses, to remain on the court. .
Huh!
Mu Shenyi made a free throw, and when the point difference was about to expand to double digits, A Mu pulled the score back again.
75:69, Xiangbei leads by 6 points!
Although Naito has already received his fourth foul, in the subsequent games, Naito’s strong style of play remained unchanged. He showed his strength in the basket to his fullest. With Akagi and Naito’s inside rule, Xiangbei still firmly grasped. The rebounding advantage, and then master the offensive rhythm, but Mu Shenyi's strength has never changed.
beep!
The referee's ruthless whistle sounded again. Hearing the sound again, Naito's eyes were lost for a moment, and then he turned to the referee quickly.
The referee wouldn't talk about favors with Naito, the gestures he made were so standard and ruthless.
"Red No. 15, defensive foul, two free throws!"
The referee calmly made the penalty, and at the same time announced that Xiangbei No. 15 Naito Tetsuya had been full of five offenses. For the first time in a national competition, he was forced to face his fate.
Players with all five offenses were no longer able to play in this game. Even if the game enters overtime, Naito was so depressed that he could only honestly walk to coach Anzai and sit down, watching his teammates. The game reached the end.
Xiangbei is now 81:73, 8 points ahead of Hainan, the situation is equally dangerous.
Huh!Huh!
The Hainan captain showed excellent psychological quality at this moment. Under such tremendous pressure, he still made two free throws, but when Xiangbei's next attack, including Miyagi, who replaced Naito, all five players slowed down. Advance slowly, not in a hurry.
Naruto dribbled the ball and smiled unkind at all.
"Mu Shenyi, who can you kill this time?"
Chapter 245-The Night Before the Final
Xiangbei masters Miyagi Ryota once again, but not as a point guard, but Xiangbei's outside fort!
Miyagi itself also has three-point firepower, but because the team has a super marksman like Mitsui, plus Naruto, Rukawa, and even the off-court deputy captain Mu Mu, all have three-point shooting ability, so Miyagi generally does not Will show his three-pointers too much, only occasionally when the opportunity is better, or what tactics are used, when Miyagi is used as an attack arrow, will he fully demonstrate his scoring ability.
Now that there is Naruto in Xiangbei as the point guard, he has personally mastered the attacking rhythm, of course Miyagi has unloaded the burden of organization and scheduling, and can completely become an attacking player!
Miyagi’s presence made the situation even more unfavorable for Hainan. Although Xiangbei’s inside line now only has Akagi alone, Xiangbei still has an absolute advantage in the inside line. With Akagi's ability, it is completely impossible to suppress the inside line combination of Miyagaki and Muto alone. The problem, even if Naruto pulls to the outside and Naito is knocked off the field, Xiangbei still has the advantage of rebounding.
Miyagi, as the fourth three-point shooter of Xiangbei, left only one Donkey Kong Akagi on the inside. The outside line is now with four turrets at the same time, aiming at Hainan's basket.
Among Naruto, Rukawa, Mitsui, and Miyagi, Amu can barely suppress one of them, but for the other three, Amu is also lacking in skills.
Even if Amu goes to target Naruto himself, the remaining players are obviously not enough to put enough pressure on the Xiangbei offensive trio!Kiyota and Mitsui, so who will defend Miyagi?
Did the insider Gong Yi pull out?
Although the height difference between Miyagaki and Miyagi is relatively small, the difference in strength between the two is too large. Miyagaki is simply not enough to make any effective defense against Miyagi. In the end, Miyagi can only watch Miyagi constantly shoot long-range shots, even Hainan's No. The second shot is no better than Xiangbei's master Miyagi Ryota, and he is the only three-pointer that the former is good at!
Although Amu played Naito off the court with all his strength, after Miyagi came on the court, it actually caused greater defensive pressure on Hainan, which should not have been predicted by Amu before.
After all, Amu is just a student. In basketball, he still needs to learn a lot. It is too reluctant to think and analyze like a real basketball coach, especially when standing on the court, the players themselves keep A state of high excitement, even in basketball, being a coach and a player are completely two modes of thinking!
A Mu's foul-making tactics brought a real crisis to Hainan. As the captain of Hainan, A Mu could not admit defeat and could only fight with Hainan's players to the end.
Huh!
As Naruto hit the last three-pointer from a long range, the referee gestured to indicate that Naruto's last three-pointer was valid and announced the end of the game.
The whistle at the end of the game can be regarded as draining the last point of the will of the Hainan players to persist. Except for the monster Amu, all other Hainan players fell to the ground, including Qingtian, who had always been overpowered, and all Hainan players collapsed.
They have played well enough and desperately in this game, but in the end they couldn't make up the gap in strength.
Xiangbei did not use any special tactics, did not launch crazy running and bombing, and did not use the full-court to fight against Hainan. They just rely on the super strong center and the accurate three-point turret. This simple combination is Let Hainan once again be defeated by his own hands.
129:108, Hainan was defeated by Xiangbei for the second time in the official game and lost to Xiangbei by 21 points.
This score is also Hainan's third-largest loss in a game apart from the Kanagawa Prefecture Conference against Xiangbei and last year's national competition against Sanwang.
Among the top four in last year, in addition to Shan Wang and Hakata University, which was defeated by Lingnan, Aihe and Hainan all fell in front of Xiangbei. No one would say that Xiangbei was just a team that entered the national competition by luck. At this time, in the eyes of at least some people, Xiangbei is the team most likely to defeat the undefeated mountain king.
At the end of the game, players from both sides shook hands to signal the friendly end of the game.
"Congratulations."
A Mu's expression didn't seem to be so depressed. As the captain, A Mu had enough courage to send sincere congratulations to his opponents.
Naruto shrugged: "I'm sorry, Senior Mu, but this is all strength."
"..." A Mu was speechless for a while, then he smiled sincerely, "Are you really embarrassed?"
"Of course not, haha..."
Naruto showed no respect for A Mu's attitude, but A Mu had been used to it for a long time, so he was not angry. After laughing twice, A Mu suddenly said sincerely.
"Tomorrow's finals, please cheer for you. Seriously, we are really looking forward to seeing a day when history changes."
Anyway, Hainan has already lost, and their trip to the national competition this year is over. Amu can also look at the upcoming match between Shan Wang and Xiangbei with a calm mind.
Sanno is an unbeaten king for many years. In the national competition, Sanno has the most luxurious support team. Countless fans do not want to see Sanno lose. But from the perspective of the team, Sanno has been in Akita for 30 consecutive years. The record of three consecutive hegemonies in the national competition is really too jealous. Even if he has lost the chance to defeat the mountain king, Amu still hopes that Xiangbei can do it, especially Xiangbei and Hainan. They are all teams from Kanagawa. As a fellow Kanagawa, Hainan is of course standing on the side of Xiangbei.
