Chapter 26: Futian's Power
"I won't let you score again!" Sakuragi shouted loudly in the air, doing her best to straighten her hands, trying to block Fukuda's layup.
clang~swish!
Fukuda made a layup in the air, easily avoiding Sakuragi's thugs and successfully scored. This was Fukuda's eleventh point in this game.
"Ga...Ga..." Sakuragi gasped loudly. This was not tired, but angry.
"Why why? Why! Why is my genius Sakuragi never able to guard against him!!" Sakuragi, who had always been confident in himself, began to be confused at this moment. He was thinking, wasn't he a genius!
"Kandao, have you noticed that Ryunan focused his offensive on Fukuda!" Miyagi was stunned when he saw Sakuragi, and went over to talk to him. There was something in his words, but Sakuragi couldn't hear it very much and responded with silence.
"You are the one who is responsible for staring at him!" Rukawa passed by and saw Sakuragi still being stunned. He couldn't help but interrupt, "Your defense is a loophole in Shokube!!"
"What!!" Sakuragi turned around angrily and shouted. Even if Sakuragi suspected him, she would never be able to withstand Rukawa's sarcasm.
"This is what they can say about you! Do you know!?" Rukawa looked at Sakuragi squintly, his expression still so cold. "They all look down on you!"
"Ga...Ga..." Sakuragi was speechless, his chest was fluctuating rapidly. He also knew that he had become the target. For Sakuragi, he had never suffered such a great humiliation.
"Good job, Ah Fu!" Takuya came to Fukuda and patted his back gently. After entering the second grade, the person who knows Fukuda's strength and hard work best is Takuya, who has been practicing for three moons with Fukuda. Seeing that Fukuda can finally shine in the game, Takuya couldn't help but feel relieved.
Xiangbei attacked, Akagi came out to pick-and-roll for Mitsui, and Taku was blocked. Mitsui successfully got rid of the guy who had been entangled in his half, drifted past Yuzhu and successfully scored, and Xiangbei recovered a little distance.
"Gaha...Gaha..." Mitsui supported her knees with her hands and gasped loudly. "I was so tired before the first half was finished. Can I really hold on to the full game?"
"Damn it! Why do I waste my time like this!"
"Misi Shou's physical strength is almost at its limit. He will definitely stay for less than ten minutes in the second half. Even if he barely keeps it on the court, he won't do anything. Well, very good, my defense today is very successful!" Takuya glanced at Mitsui, feeling a little relieved. Every attack just now was very difficult. Takuya's defense was like a bone-attached insect, which forced him to do his best and could not score a goal.
Lingnan attacked. This time Yuzhu defeated Akagi and Sakuragi grabbed the rebound, but Lingnan had quickly returned to defense. Xiangbei could not make a fast attack, so he could only be lucky and fight a positional battle.
"Miyi is already so tired... It seems that he can't let him attack. Without him in the second half, no one can limit Maeda. Rukawa Yu was stared at by Sendo and had no desire to attack. Should he still leave it to Boss Akagi? But he has been attacking continuously for a while, and his foot injury has not healed yet. He can't drag him down in the first half. Do you want me to do it yourself? Even if I can rush into the inside, Yuzhu's height can easily block me, which is not cost-effective..." Every time Xiangbei attacks, Miyagi needs to consume a large amount of brain cells to organize the attack. Xiangbei is now in devastated. Apart from the selection, no player has the ability to fight. He must be careful to save his teammates' physical strength. Unconsciously, Miyagi's ability as a point guard has improved greatly. It can be said that the hero behind Xiangbei can reach the semi-finals is Miyagi.
Miyagi thought for a long time and decided to break through by himself. Although the defense of Uchicao was not weak, compared with the flashy Miyagi Liangda, the speed was still too slow. Miyagi bent his waist very low and used his first quick step to cut into the penalty area. When Yu stopped to make up for the defense, he passed the ball with his back hand and handed the ball to Sakuragi.
The person who defends Sakuragi is Fukuda, who has the worst defense, but the person who has the worst attack in Shonobu is also Sakuragi, whose weakest spear is against the weakest shield, and Fukuda's fighting spirit is extremely high now, and the outcome is unpredictable.
Sendo is a very smart person. From all the previous signs, it can be seen that Sakuragi will never pass the ball to Rukawa. He can help Fukuda with confidence and double-team Sakuragi.
As he expected, Sakuragi became busy after being double-teamed. Fukuda seized the opportunity and slapped the basketball off Sakuragi's hand, and the ball was taken by Sendo. Then, Fukuda and Sendo ran quickly to the front court, Sakuragi and Rukawa followed closely, with two against two in the front court.
At this moment of flash, Sendo made an offensive decision. He decided to use a shocking attack to hit Xiangbei's morale again, but it was not him, but Futian.
Sendo threw the ball into the ball frame while running. Although Fukuda didn't know Sendo's idea, the moment he saw the ball, he jumped up like a cat from a mouse. At the same time, Sakuragi, whose beast had a sharp intuition, was also trying to stop Fukuda.
Fukuda received the ball on the basket, and smashed his arm with force. He relayed in the air. Nishanggi failed to stop it. When he landed on the ground, he squatted his feet and lost his balance and fell to the chair beside him.
This extremely high-viewing aerial relay made the audience cheers rush towards Lingnan.
"Sakuragi, do you understand? I won!" Fukuda walked towards Sakuragi, looked at him who was still sitting on the ground, and said in a low voice.
Sakuragi's head was bleeding just now because of falling down. His eyes were full of stubbornness and unwillingness, but he didn't say anything. This time, he lost nothing to say.
The game was suspended due to injuries. Other players from Xiangbei quickly helped Sakuragi to the back of the bench for first aid, while other players from Xiangbei discussed tactics now.
"Now we are 14 points behind, and the goal in the first half is within 10 points!! In any case, when the first half is over, the score gap must be below 10 points. Ki Mu is responsible for Maeda. Mitsui, you should defend Fukuda. Maeda's long-range shooting percentage will not be higher than Fukuda's close shooting." Akagi quickly allocated.
In fact, there are few teams like Ryunan. Four of the team are of high-level offensive experts. If the whole team is not very good at defense, Ryunan can always find weaknesses and strong attacks. Just like Shonobei, there is not enough manpower to defend Fukuda and Maeda, Akagi has to let Mitsui, who is more capable, defend Fukuda, and Takuda, who is good at long-range shooting, bet that he knows that Mu Mu cannot defend Takuya, so he can only bet that his shooting rate is not high or that Ryunan will continue to hand over the ball to Fukuda for attack.
Mu Mu made a contribution as soon as he entered the field. Due to his long-term neglect, he got a good position in this attack. Miyagi's pass came just right, and Mu Mu raised his hand and got a three-pointer.
"That number 5 has a good three-point basis..." Takuya was secretly careful and immediately started to attack.
Ryunan gave the ball to Fukuda again. It may be that Fukuda scored many goals to give Sendo information. Facing Mitsui's defense, Fukuda broke through Mitsui like breaking through Sakuragi, but Mitsui was slapped by Mitsui and lost the ball. Fortunately Mitsui also fouled it.
"This kid has a skill, damn it! Maeda, Fukuda, why are both offensive masters?!" Mitsui's physical strength has begun to be a little lacking, and defending Fukuda is not easy for him.
Ryonan served Fukuda again. This time Mitsui no longer underestimated him. He tried his best to focus on defense. He successfully cut Fukuda's ball, threw it, handed it to Rukawa, and then ran to the frontcourt.
Rukawa received the ball, and Sendo was behind him. Just when everyone thought it would be the ace against the ace, Rukawa passed the ball to Mitsui, and no one was guarding him. Mitsui relaxed his vigilance and was caught by Takuya, who had caught up from behind.
"What!! When will this guy appear?!!"
The ball hit the rebound, and the basket in Xiandao was easily picked up the rebound recently. At this time, there were only more than two seconds left in the first half.
"Shendao!" Takuya shouted and ran towards the half-time of Xiangbei. Sakuya immediately understood Takuya's idea and threw the ball.
Near the center line, Takuya jumped up to catch the ball, got the ball and ran two steps, jumped directly outside the three-point line, and threw the ball out in an unconventional way.
Swish~beep!
