Chapter 171 Battle 3 Putai (1)
"Hikoichi, well done. The game of Midorikaze was recorded very well. We should also record the game of Shohoku carefully. Shohoku will also be an important opponent for us, especially their three freshmen." Tanaka Shigeichi told Aida Hikoichi. Because Ryonan and Shohoku are not in the same stadium, and Ryonan's game will be held in the afternoon, Tanaka Shigeichi brought Aida Hikoichi and Yuzhu to watch the game in this stadium. Other players watched the game between Kainan and Shoyo
"Yes, coach. Actually, there won't be any problems for Xiangbei in this game."
"Hikoichi, remember one thing, the ball is round, anything can happen. You just arrived in Kanagawa, so you may have some understanding of the strong teams. We played against Miuradai last year, do you know the result?"
"Of course we won. Ryonan is one of the top four teams," replied Hikoichi Aida
"We did win, but only by three points"
"Only won by 3 points? Is Miuratai so strong?" Aida Hikoichi's eyes widened.
"It's the style of Miuradai, the play is rough..." Tanaoka Shigeka introduced Miuradai to Aida Hikoichi. "So, this game of Xiangbei is not easy to play"
Shohoku locker room
"I still want to remind everyone that all the players of Miuratai play in a very dirty style. They will constantly harass you with small moves that the referee cannot see, so don't be provoked. As long as you keep scoring and grabbing rebounds, they will be the first to collapse. Then the fouls will naturally become bigger and the referee will call them all off. Today's starting lineup: Akagi, Horita, Hasegawa, Mitsui and Murasakibara." In this game, to be on the safe side, Coach Anzai sent out a third-year lineup at the start.
In another lounge, the players of Miuradai changed their jerseys and sat together. Coach Harada stood in front of the players and said: "We are going to play against the Shohoku basketball team next. Everyone knows the basic information. We have practiced the response strategy many times. Now I emphasize defense again. Kawasaki Akio, you are responsible for defending Akagi Takenori. Kawasaki, you must suppress Akagi Takenori's scoring ability under the basket; Shohoku's power forward is a weak point. Murasame, it's up to you. As long as you can suppress Shohoku's inside line, we will have a chance to win." I have to admire the coach of Miuradai. Not only is the information backward, but he is also blindly confident.
Both sides finished warming up and the game began

"Are these the players from Xiangbei? They are all so tall!" Except for Araki, the others were shorter. Murasame looked at the starting players of Xiangbei and was startled, but Murasame was a veteran and quickly regained his composure. "Basketball is not a sport for tall people."
"Akagi, you are so tall, you think? I will beat you down like I did to Yuzhu last year." Murasame's voice was really loud, and it easily reached Yuzhu's ears. Yuzhu, who was in a hot temper, immediately stood up and shouted to the Xiangbei team who were entering the stadium: "Akagi! Teach Miuradai a lesson! Kill that pig for me!"
"This Murasame has really attracted a lot of hatred, hahahaha" Mumu felt angry and amused. "The first ball goes to Akagi, let's see if they are still arrogant" Mumu quietly told the other Xiangbei players, and the other players nodded.
The result of the jump ball was of course that Akagi won, and Xiangbei got the first chance to attack. After getting the ball, Mugure quickly advanced forward, and before Miuratai had settled into a defensive position, the ball was passed to Mitsui outside the left three-point line. After Mitsui got the ball, he jumped up directly and was ready to shoot. Gao Jinhong also reacted quickly and jumped high to block Mitsui's shooting line, but Mitsui suddenly changed his hands in the air and threw the ball high above the basket, focusing the attention of everyone in Miuratai on that point. They thought Mitsui had made a mistake, but they saw a figure jumping out of the crowd, grabbing the ball with both hands and slamming it into the basket. Xiangbei took the lead 2:0.
"Good job, Akagi!" The Ryonan players in the stands were happier than the Xiangbei players.
Miuradai was not to be outdone, and quickly served the ball from the baseline. Araki took two steps and passed it to Miuradai's shooting guard Takatsu Hiroshi. Takatsu threw the ball to the basket without stopping. Murasame had already used the screen to rush into the restricted area, easily received the basketball and made a layup. Horida, who was defending behind him, was a step slower, and Akagi was stuck behind Kawasaki and could not block him. Miuradai tied the score
"Isn't this easy?" After Murasame scored a goal, he arrogantly threw the ball to the ground and turned away.
"Akagi, I'm sorry, I was a step behind," Horita took the blame
"Okay! Pay attention next time!" It was just a mistake, and Akagi didn't care much. After all, the current Akagi is not the gorilla in the original book who would be soft when facing a strong team. After the baptism of the competition, the current Akagi is very confident in Xiangbei, and encouraged everyone, "Everyone cheer up! Don't let people underestimate you!"
Mugure controlled the ball and advanced quickly, and the other players of the Xiangbei team also quickly got into position. When he came to the three-point line, Mugure suddenly accelerated when facing Araki, broke through to the right, and came to the free throw line after taking a step. The opponent's inside player immediately came up to block him. Mugure faced double teams from front and back, and decisively passed the ball to Mitsui who cut into the inside. After the latter jumped in the air, facing Murasame who came over to block the shot, he passed the ball to Horida who was in an open position, and Horida easily scored on the rebound, 4 to 2.
"Tokunan, isn't that a score?" Mitsui went over and high-fived his friend.
"It's okay, we'll give him one more." As the captain, Murasame is quite competent and clapped his hands to encourage his teammates.
"Want to fight back? You're overthinking it!" Murasaki sneered, and suddenly stretched out his hand to steal the ball from Araki's hand. Murasaki prepared for a long pass for a "fast break"
"Don't even think about it!" Gao Jinhong suddenly jumped out from the side.
"I saw you a long time ago." Mu Mu took the ball, avoided Gao Jinhong's block, and rushed forward with the ball.
"What about me?" Murasame suddenly appeared in front of Murasame. Taking advantage of the short delay of Takatsuhiro, Murasame returned to defense and blocked Murasame's route. If Murasame continued to move forward, he would be called for an offensive foul by Murasame.
"Murasame, although he has a sharp tongue, he still has some skills. He once made me commit an offensive foul." Narration by Yuzhu in the stands
"Hmph, you think you can stump me with this trick?" Murasame performed a trick by slipping through the crotch and passing from the side of Murasame.
"Asshole!" Being insulted like this, Murasame was so angry that he turned around and pushed Murasakibara, who fell to the ground.
"Black No. 4, technical foul". Such a retaliatory behavior, the referee is very observant and gave Murasame a technical foul without hesitation!
Murasakibara made both free throws and the ball still belonged to Shohoku. Horita came out to screen for Mitsui, and Mitsui ran out of an open space. Murasakibara saw the opportunity and immediately passed the ball to Mitsui. Mitsui got the ball and took a three-point shot and made it!
Miuradai was attacking, and Murasame got the ball with a screen, facing Hasegawa who was defending in a mismatched position. He held the ball with both hands, made a fake move to the right, and then suddenly dribbled to the left. When Hasegawa moved to the left to block him, he suddenly slapped the ball from his crotch to the right, and squeezed past Hasegawa with one step.
"Success!"
Just when he was secretly happy, a ghostly hand reached out from behind and gently hit the ball he had just knocked down. "Do you think I'll be beaten like this?" Hasegawa grabbed it back. The ball immediately rolled forward uncontrollably and was caught by the quick-eyed and quick-handed Horita, who immediately passed it to Murasakibara who was already rushing forward. Murasakibara directly made a three-pointer and hit it again. 12:2, Xiangbei widened the gap to 10 points
"Miuratai requests a timeout!"
