Chapter 143: Battle of Aiwa Academy: Aichi Star
"It seems that I was careless. Tetsuki is no match for him. Mishima, get ready to warm up." Akagi's series of wonderful performances made the coach of Aiwa Academy realize that he had made a big mistake. He hurriedly told the team's center to warm up.
Although the ball blocked by Akagi fell into the hands of the Aiwa Academy players, there was not much time left and Aiwa Academy was unable to organize an effective offensive. Moroboshi forced a shot from the outside, but the ball missed. Akagi grabbed the rebound and Shohoku counterattacked.
"Focus on the inside and don't let Akagi get the ball easily," Aiwa's coach made arrangements anxiously.
"Haha, Xiangbei has more than just me." Akagi did not choose to stay in the inside this time, but ran to the top line to cover Mitsui. Mitsui used Akagi's cover to get rid of Moroboshi's defense and got an open space. Mugure's "express delivery" was delivered in time, and Mitsui made a three-pointer with his knife. 10:2! Xiangbei gave the last four semi-finals a warning!
"Aihe Academy requests a timeout" The game started badly, and Aihe's coach couldn't help but call a timeout to make adjustments.
"The Shohoku team is quite strong. They have center No. 8 in the interior and No. 7's shooting is very stable on the outside. No wonder they can make it to the national competition. Aiwa Academy suffered a loss this time due to carelessness," the captain of Sannoh concluded.
After the timeout, Aiwa Academy replaced all the main lineups and the offensive focus also changed. This time, the ball was handed to Moroboshi Dai!
"Zhu Xing, it's up to you." The teammates placed all their hopes on Zhu Xing.
"Come on, Mitsui!" At the same time, the Xiangbei players are also looking forward to Mitsui's performance.
Moroboshi took a probing step and then broke through to Mitsui's right side. "Humph, not that easy." Mitsui quickly moved sideways and blocked Moroboshi's path. Moroboshi could not break through any further. He stopped breaking through and dribbled the ball on the spot. "As expected of Mitsui, his strength has not weakened. It seems I have to use all my strength." Moroboshi praised. He tapped the ball lightly with confidence on his face. His eyes were not fixed on Mitsui, but on the red basket behind Mitsui. His shoulders also began to sway slowly from side to side with the bouncing basketball. Mitsui was not careless at all and stared at Moroboshi intently.
In an instant, the frequency of the ball in Zhu Xingda's hand suddenly increased, and a lightning-like figure quickly appeared on Mitsui's right side. The airflow brought by the high-speed movement made Mitsui's eyes focus, "So fast!" Mitsui was shocked, stepped on the floor with his left foot, and flew backwards quickly, blocking Zhu Xingda's breakthrough in time.
At this moment, Zhu Xingdai suddenly stopped, and suddenly pulled the ball towards his crotch with his right hand, and his body tilted slightly to the left.
"Left!?" Mitsui suddenly felt something was wrong and subconsciously leaned his body to the left.
Seeing Mitsui's body turned sideways, Moroboshi's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He pulled the basketball to his crotch again with his left hand, and took advantage of the gap left by Mitsui to sneak over with his right foot. Then he made a quick stop and shot. The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and fell right into the basket.
"Good shot, Moroboshi!" Aichi fans cheered for this goal
"Sure enough, he is worthy of being the star of Aichi!" Mugure secretly praised. Mitsui's defense was very good. If it were an ordinary player, Moroboshi would have successfully broken through. "Mitsui, your opponent is not bad. Isn't it time for you to show your strength and let them see the strength of the MVP of Kanagawa Junior High School?" Mugure smiled and patted Mitsui's shoulder.
"That's what I meant. Leave the next ball to me." Mitsui's eyes were full of fighting spirit.
Murasaki dribbled across half court and immediately passed the ball to Mitsui. Moroboshi Dai had been waiting for Mitsui outside the three-point line. Facing Moroboshi's gaze, that fiery gaze seemed to convey a message to Mitsui: One-on-one, come over here!
"Everyone, move away, no one come over, I want to fight him one-on-one," Mitsui shouted loudly. The Xiangbei players nodded one after another, and each moved their opponents away to make room for Mitsui.
Mitsui rushed forward without fear. With the sound of rapid dribbling, two figures entangled with each other outside the three-point line, fake moves, acceleration, change of direction...
Zhu Xing was very tight, not giving Mitsui any room to accelerate. "Don't even think about breaking through!" Zhu Xing stuck to Mitsui tightly.
"I won't break through if you say so." Mitsui suddenly stepped back and pushed the ground with one foot.
"Quick stop jump shot? I'm prepared." Zhu Xingda leaped up and stretched out his hand to block "Nani?" Zhu Xingda was surprised to find that Mitsui was getting farther and farther away from him. It was a fadeaway jump shot! Zhu Xing landed and looked back at the basket.
"Swish!" The ball goes into the net!
"Mitsui! Mitsui" This time, it was the turn of the Xiangbei players to cheer.
"Pass the ball to me, I want to play one-on-one!" Mitsui's performance boosted the Aichi Stars' fighting spirit
In Xiangbei's position, Aiwa Academy's stance left space for Moroboshi Dai to play one-on-one, and Moroboshi Dai once again faced Mitsui.
Zhu Xing is very skilled at dribbling, and the basketball seems to be a part of his body. No matter how he moves, the ball is firmly controlled in his hands. His fake moves are very realistic and his skills are gorgeous.
The ball repeatedly passed between Zhu Xing's crotch. The fast dribbling made people dizzy and unable to judge from which direction the attack would come.
Facing Mitsui's defense, Moroboshi Dai broke out again. His steps were like dance steps, full of grace. The ball kept switching between his left and right hands, and he kept luring Mitsui into gaps. His fake moves had reached the effect of a combination of real and fake.
In a trance, Moroboshi Dai's body twisted inexplicably. After countless fake moves, Mitsui finally revealed a flaw. Moroboshi Dai seized this flaw again and broke through Mitsui's defense, rushed into the basket and shot the ball into the basket with a high throw.
"Good shot, Moroboshi!" "As expected of the Star of Aichi!" "Great!"
"Come on, Mitsui, what?" Moroboshi's eyes suddenly narrowed. It turned out that after Mitsui received the ball outside the three-point line, he jumped up and shot a three-pointer without making any adjustments. The speed was so fast that Moroboshi had no time to react and wanted to block it, but it was too late. "It won't go in if you are so anxious. Rebound." Moroboshi turned around. "The No. 7 of Xiangbei shot the ball too hastily, but it's no wonder. He was hit twice by Moroboshi. In fact, his defense is also very good. He was still scored in this way. He must want to fight back." The captain of Sanno analyzed
But a few seconds later, the sound of the ball going into the net hit everyone in the face. What surprised the audience even more was that after shooting the three-pointer, Mitsui didn't even go for the rebound and went straight back to the backcourt.
"Wow, such a fast and accurate shot!" The audience was stunned.
"This No. 7 is so confident in his shot? He knows he can score without even looking at it?" Mitsui's performance also attracted the attention of the champion team Sanwang Industrial
"That was the former junior high school MVP player," Fujita proudly introduced his fellow Kanagawa native.
"Why didn't such a player go to Hainan?"
Fujita "..."
Back on the court, Zhu Xing received the ball outside the three-point line and prepared to attack, but this time Mitsui seemed to have taken stimulants and entangled Zhu Xing tightly. Zhu Xing tried several moves in a row but failed to break through Mitsui. Zhu Xing could only wave to his teammates for help. It must be said that Zhu Xing plays very smartly, because he will not force himself to hold on for the sake of the face of the ace, but chooses to ask his teammates for help. Zhu Xing easily broke through Mitsui's mid-range shot through his teammates' pick-and-roll!
"What a calm player! In fact, Mitsui has gradually figured out Morohoshi's ball path, but Morohoshi did not choose to attack blindly by himself, but relied on the strength of his teammates." Mu Mu secretly admired
Xiangbei attacked, the ball was in Mitsui's hands, and Zhu Xingdai was very tight, not giving Mitsui any space to shoot. Mitsui had no offensive space for a while.
"Mitsui, over here!" Murasakibara suddenly shook off the defender and ran to Mitsui to ask for the ball.
"Don't even think about it!" Zhu Xing moved sideways and stuck to Mu Mu, but he was surprised to find that Mu Mu's hands were empty. The ball was not in Mu Mu's hands, but in Mitsui's hands. Mitsui pretended to shoot a three-pointer, and Sawada Ryuji jumped up hurriedly. Mitsui took the ball and rushed to the basket.
"You can't score a goal!" Aichi center forward Mishima jumped up to block the ball, but Mitsui passed the ball from Mishima's armpit without any panic.
"Good pass!" Akagi's roar came from behind Mishima, followed by a gorilla dunk!
