Chimu snorted and did not answer. In fact, he made sacrifices for the victory of Xiangbei.
However, Naruto is an unstoppable master. Hearing Kawada's provocation against Akagi, Naruto smiled and immediately responded.
"Bald orangutan, what do you want our captain to face against you? Does it look like this? It’s no need to compare. Although our captain’s looks are not very good, it still has an absolute advantage when compared to yours. So far, I have not seen a player uglier than you."
Naruto never knows to be merciful when he speaks. Everyone looked at the looks of Captain Kawada and Xiangbei, and silently supported the latter.
Not to mention the exaggerated smiles of the Xiangbei players, even the Shanwang players have a little unstrained smile on their faces. The most obvious smile is of course the mountain king ace Zebei Eiji who often convulses on the court.
Kawada's expression of eating Xiang was really irritated by Naruto's words just now, but Akagi's complexion has obviously improved a lot. Comparing the two, the Xiangbei Gorilla Captain won an absolute victory in appearance.
Naruto's eyes flashed, and he immediately shot while Kawada was depressed, aiming at the basketball in his hands.
However, it is not the first time that Kawada has been stimulated by Naruto's poisonous tongue. Although he is depressed now, he still reacts quickly. He clung to the basketball and did not let Naruto succeed. He still controls his own ball.
Kawada and Naruto moved a little apart to prevent Naruto from stealing suddenly, while calmly looking for an attack opportunity.
Naruto was just as serious as he was. Although he was making jokes about Hetian before, he also knew that this guy with a huge face was definitely not easy to deal with.
The joke ends here, now the real battle begins!
Chapter 251-Showdown under the basket
The duel between Naruto and Kawada was a winning factor in the match between Shan Wang and Xiangbei. No matter which one of the two sides can win, they can give their team the upper hand and lay the foundation for victory.
Even Kazuo Kanazawa and Shota Sugiyama were extremely interested in the duel between the two.
"Haha, I really didn't expect that with Akagi's arrogance~ Pride would agree to change defense with Sakuragi." Sugiyama pushed his glasses too, "In this case, my evaluation of Akagi is a higher level!"
"Actually, the two of them are the most correct tactics. The inside defense of Akagi is enough to be ranked first in the country. Even in the university, it is also a first-class level. However, the quality of Kawada is already in the top three of the center. Name, it is really difficult to completely defend against Kawada. Only by changing positions in defense can Xiangbei's inside advantage be maximized."
Kazuo Tangze had a smile in his eyes, as if he had seen the team he led gradually growing.
"Actually, the four players on the field today are all top-ranking insiders. If you really say it, I think Sakuragi has the best offensive and defensive skills. Kawada loses a little bit. Akagi is close to the basket. Invincible, but the scoring ability in the middle distance is still lacking. The classmate Nobe has strong rebounding ability, but lacks in personal offense and defense."
"Coach, if these four people can only choose one, who do you want to join us?"
"You are stumping me, Mrs. Xiang. In fact, several of them are the best inside players. Even if they enter college basketball and enter different college teams, their competition with each other will continue, except It's a pity that Fujima-classmates, the fighting in other positions will also not stop. After entering college basketball, they will continue to compare and continue to grow."
"Speaking of growth, Kawada's skills are enough to be ranked among the top three super centers in the university, but his height is still a bit problematic. Unless he can have a second explosive increase in height, he will only be 194 cm tall. The main center of the national team is still far behind."
"It doesn't matter if you can't be the main center. With Kawada's skills, it's no problem to be a power forward. If Kawada and Sakuragi can be included at the same time, with their strength, even if they lack the advantage of height, In college, even in professional basketball, it’s also a terrible insider combination, and Akagi and Naito from Xiangbei, Yuzumi from Lingnan, and Mori Shigehiro from Mingpo Industry are all rare center seedlings. They have them. In the future, the national team will not be short of outstanding center talents."
"This year's national competition is really surging."
Kazuo Tangsawa and Akira Sugiyama talked too much about college basketball. In fact, no matter what the outcome of the game between Shano and Xiangbei today is, the players of the two teams are afraid that many will join the national basketball team in the future. An excellent seedling, as a basketball coach, Kazuo Tangze doesn't want to miss it.
Let’s say that Naruto and Kawada are playing heads-up under the basket.
Both of them are super players with comprehensive skills. Kawada can be competent for positions three to five, while Naruto is competent for all five positions. Because of their comprehensiveness, the two of them are extremely difficult to defend.
Kawada held the ball under the basket and kept hitting Naruto backwards.
Kawada's dribbling posture was different from before, he lowered his weight to the lowest, and at the same time, he kept squeezing Naruto behind him with his weight.
Since Xiandao and Ah Shen can learn new tricks through hard training before the national competition, Kawada, who is still the number one center forward in colleges and universities, will certainly not make progress. His strong attacking posture is from Naruto. Learned, that unique post singles!
Kawada's current post-up singles are very similar to Naruto. This type of post-up singles does not have a very sophisticated technique. It only requires strong physical cooperation to be able to exert its greatest power.
Charles Barkley can use this trick to play back singles and is in the NBA inside. It is not because of how subtle the trick itself is, but because he has the tonnage and explosiveness that is among the best among power forwards, plus his size as an inside player. Among them, he belongs to the short type with a low center of gravity, so his back singles are particularly powerful.
Because the inside players have a lot of physical confrontation, except for a few players like the big dream, all the inside players need excellent physical fitness to be able to kill the square inside.
Kawada's absolute strength should be comparable to Akagi, but his explosive power is definitely above Akagi. Among all centers in high school basketball, he should be second only to Mori Shigehiro.
With the tonnage above Akagi and the broad body, Kawada continued to energize, leaning against Naruto behind him.
Naito has also learned the technique of back-up singles from Naruto. Although he has been studying for a longer time, his back-up singles cannot be compared with Kawada.
First, when Naito is on the court, he prefers to use dunks to score, rather than relying on the technique of back-up singles to squeeze the defensive players to score. Second, Naito’s basic skills are not as solid as Kawada’s. A point guard background, for a point guard, mastering the offensive rhythm itself is a required course!
Naito's back-to-back singles relying solely on brute force can be dealt with by Naruto's solid stride.However, Kawada is obviously not a player who can easily defend. Kawada squeezed behind him while constantly changing the focus of his offense, making Naruto unable to grasp Kawada’s offensive direction, continuously changing the defensive direction, and resisting Kawada’s impact while he himself The brute force can not be fully displayed.
Kawada is the strongest opponent Naruto has encountered in the paint, but for Kawada, it is actually the same.
He Tian relied on the combination of agile skill and brute force to make it difficult for Naruto to defend. He once used this move to kill the Quartet, but now he is actually sitting under the basket step by step.
After taking a glance at the position of the basket, Kawada's big fart slammed backwards, Naruto's lower abdomen was attacked by force, naturally bent over, and of course his center of gravity could not be maintained, staggering back two steps.
Kawada turned around and ended the attack with a clean and beautiful small hook at the basket.
8: 8
Masashi Kawada played a beautiful game that didn't match his appearance, successfully scored under Naruto's strict defense, and then enjoyed the cheers from the audience.
Even a player like Hetian has a huge number of supporters because he is the No. 1 center in the university because of Shanwang. At this point, even a player like Mu Shenyi is hard to match. Hetian is in today's state. Yes, although the defense has not been successful before, but on the offensive end is very good.
Kawada waved his arms to show off his strong muscles.
"Red head boy, victory must belong to the mountain king!"
Naruto glanced at Kawada and fiddled with his finger: "In fact, Kawada, your skills are really good, but when you go to Korea, you will be fine."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately rushed towards the mountain king halftime, and the entire Xiangbei team launched a fast attack.
The young heart of Kawada, who was invisible from the outside, was once again severely stimulated by Naruto’s poisonous tongue, but he immediately returned to defense. Speaking of which, during the stay together, the heart of the mountain king player was tempered by Naruto’s poisonous tongue many times. Although he was depressed, Kawada returned to defense as quickly as possible. As for how he would repair the wound in his heart after he left the field, that was not something Naruto would care about.
Naruto is at full speed, and the red head is particularly dazzling among fast offensive and defensive players.
Miyagi also maintained a considerable speed under the oppressive defense of Captain Sanno. After halftime, Miyagi suddenly moved half a step to the right, and the speed was fast.
Kazunari Fukatsu reacted as quickly as he did, and immediately moved to keep up.But after all, Miyagi is short, and the kung fu at his feet is more flexible than Fukatsu. When Fukatsu moved to the right with Miyagi, Miyagi immediately changed direction and moved to the left.
The purpose of Miyagi's rapid change of direction is not to break through, but to pass.
When Fukatsu was too late to defend, Miyagi had already sent a precise pass. Naruto, who had just ran into the inside of Sanno, received Miyagi's gasping. The moment he paused slightly, Kawada had followed his defense back.
On the two sides of Shanwang and Xiangbei, the contrast between fast offense and defense is four-to-four, neither side can take advantage of it, and Kawada’s defense is definitely not as rough as Mori Shigehiro. A fake move can deceive it, and at the same time it has speed and immediate And technology, the only one who can defend Naruto is Kawada Masashi alone.
"Hetian, I am going to beat your mountain king as ugly as your face today!"
Kawada gasped for breath, the game was just the beginning, Kawada would not have a physical crisis, it was purely breathed by Naruto.
"Good boy, come and try if you have the ability!"
"I certainly will!"
Naruto and Kawada are tit-for-tat, the offense and defense of the inside line is a real confrontation, and no care is allowed. The results of the two pillars of the inside line will even affect the battle between Shan Wang and Xiangbei!
