Both teams sent out their strongest lineups to deal with this game. As the referee threw the ball into the air, Akagi and Naito jumped up and slapped the basketball with their big hands at the same time! The winner was soon decided! Naito took the advantage and passed the ball to Amu.
"Akagi also lost the jump ball!" Yuzhu in the stands stood up in shock. At the same time, Huaxing on the other side of the stands also opened his mouth wide.
Akagi (inner thoughts) This guy is quite strong, no wonder Yuzhu lost
"Good job, Naito!" Amu got the ball and was about to dribble when he suddenly stopped.
"Tsk, it was just that close" Murasakibara, who was trying to steal the ball, secretly regretted
"It was a close call. Fortunately, I was prepared." Amu secretly exclaimed in surprise. After dribbling the ball to avoid Mu Mu's interception, Amu threw the ball directly into the air.
"When did No. 9 get to the basket of Xiangbei? What a fast speed!" The audience was surprised. Naito had already reached the basket of Xiangbei! Catch the ball and dunk
"Big monk, you can't score a goal!" A red figure suddenly appeared in front of Naito, and his hand also touched the ball. The two fought fiercely in the air. Naito dunked the ball on the rim and flew out of the sideline. The interceptor was knocked back three steps before he could stand firm.
"Sakuragi Hanamichi! What an amazing quality! When did he appear?" Gaotou widened his eyes. On the surface, it seemed that Naito had the advantage, but in fact, Naito used the momentum to dunk, while Sakuragi jumped from the spot and had no place to gain leverage in the air, yet he was able to stop Naito.
This time the ball was given to Hainan. Muto threw the ball from the sideline and the ball was handed to Takasago. Takasago played against Sakuragi with his back to the basket.
"This grade is so strong!" Takasago tried to push Sakuragi away, but Sakuragi's feet seemed to be rooted and did not move at all. In desperation, Takasago passed the ball to Ah Shen on the outside.
"Bang!" Mitsui predicted the ball and stole it directly. "Kume!" Mitsui made a long pass, and the ball was in Kemei's hands. Kemei made a three-step layup.
"Bang!" The ball was blocked by Amu, who got up again and took the ball. Then he started a fast break. Amu, Naito and A Shen rushed to the basket of the Xiangbei team. Naito took the lead and rushed to the basket at an amazing speed. Amu dribbled the ball against Mu Mu and came to the free throw line. Then he passed the ball to A Shen who was following him with his left hand without looking at anyone. A Shen took a three-point shot
"Don't think about scoring easily." Mitsui jumped high, and at the last moment, he reached out and touched the ball. After the ball bounced off the basket, it flew to where Sakuragi and Naito were. The two were trying their best to hit and squeeze each other, trying to get a better position. After several collisions, Naito suddenly took a big step in front of Sakuragi, then raised his butt to push his opponent out, jumped high, grabbed the offensive rebound, and shot again.
"Don't underestimate this genius!" Sakuragi reached out from behind and slapped the ball out of bounds.
"This is a foul!" Muto shouted, but the referee ignored him. Although Sakuragi jumped from behind Naito, there was no physical contact between the two sides, and Sakuragi did not hit his hand, so it was a good ball.
"Red-haired boy" Naito turned around and looked at Sakuragi deeply.
Takasago throws the ball to Muto, who breaks through Katsumi's defense and passes it to A-shin before Mitsui can make up for it.
"Bang" the ball was intercepted by Murasakibara. "I knew you would give it to him." Murasakibara dribbled the ball forward, Mitsui and Sakuragi followed on the left and right. Murasakibara passed the ball to Mitsui, who took a three-point shot but missed.
"Rebounds are my talent" Sakuragi grabs the ball in mid-air, lands, and then gets up again
"First-year boy, don't be so arrogant" the ball was blocked by Amu
"Damn it!" Sakuragi glanced at Amu and his expression suddenly changed. "What grade are you in?! Oh, Hainan team, you are so despicable. You actually asked seniors to help you."
"Red-haired boy, shut up, Amu is a senior high school student," Naito immediately retorted
"You bald guy, how can a high school student be bald, referee, I protest, how come the Hainan team has seniors, and more than one!" Sakuragi yelled
"Red No. 10, I warn you, if you make noise on the court again, I will give you a technical foul." The referee couldn't stand it anymore and gave Sakuragi a verbal warning, and Sakuragi gave up, but -
"Akagi looks older than me," Amu said with a dark face, and the whole audience was shocked.
"Hearing you say that, it's true." Sakuragi turned back to look at his captain. Akagi: "Don't look at me"
"It turns out that Amu has always cared about this" by Kazuo Kamiso
"Sakuragi, you should be thankful that you are not in the right position with Amu. You don't know that in the national competition in the first year of high school, a team's point guard publicly doubted Amu's age. As a result, Amu only scored 2 points, but sent 6 turnovers. Amu scored 21 points under his defense and fouled him out. Fujima of Shoyo said secretly
Back to the topic, Xiangbei served the ball from the sideline and passed it to Murasakibara at the top of the three-point arc. Murasakibara dribbled quickly and passed the ball to his left hand. In a more comfortable posture, he rushed directly towards Amu. Amu's speed was not slow, and Amu knew his strengths and weaknesses. He used his body to defend Murasakibara and used his outstanding strength to disrupt Murasakibara's dribbling rhythm.
But just when Amu pushed Murasakibara hard, Yueze took only one step and suddenly stopped, then retreated with the help of Amu's reaction force.
Under Ah Mu's surprised gaze, he jumped back, jumped out of the three-point line, then jumped up again to shoot, and the ball drew an arc and went straight to the basket.
The ball bounced off the rim and missed, and Naito grabbed the rebound.
"It seems that the game just started, and my hands are still a little cold." Mu Mu shook his wrist and returned to defense
Amu dribbled the ball across half court, and Murasakibara also came up to defend.
Murasaki knew that Amaru was good at dribbling. In the original work, the four defenders of Shohoku were unable to snatch the ball from Amaru, so Murasaki gave up the idea of stealing the ball and focused on defending Amaru's breakthrough.
Amu had no intention of shooting either. Amu knew that his outside shooting was not very accurate, and he was better at cutting in and passing the ball or scoring inside.
Amu dribbled the ball from the left side of Mumu, using the strength of his body to squeeze Mumu's defense until Mumu could no longer block his strength and had to retreat, and then he finally broke through.
"Eh?!" Ah Mu felt a hand reaching out from behind, and his fingertips touched the ball.
"The rebound ball landed," Amu shouted.
"give it to me!"
Sakuragi jumped high from the crowd and struggled to grab the ball in his own hands.
"Mu Mu" A Mu turned around and looked at Mu Mu
"I won't let you score easily"
"The game started off so fiercely, neither side gave in. Although we haven't scored a single point yet, it makes me sad, Ms. Aida," said trainee reporter Nakamura to his partner in the press box.
"Nakamura, you're right. This shows how much both sides value the first goal. Whoever scores first will take the initiative." Aida Yayoi nodded.
"Hanamichi, good rebound! That's how it should be." Mumu praised loudly, and then steadily advanced, while raising his left index finger: "Let's get the first ball. Mumu hit the ground at 45 degrees to the left outside the three-point line, and Akagi successfully received the ball. However, Mumu suddenly cut into the air after passing the ball.
Not good. Mugure is about to make an open cut and shoot. Amu is moved and immediately takes action. He turns quickly and runs to the middle to intercept Mugure. Then Akagi passes the ball and immediately goes out to block Amu. Mugure receives Akagi's backhand pass and runs straight to the basket to prepare for a layup.
"Watch me!" Naito stepped forward to block the attack with a ferocious look on his face.
I saw Murasaki preparing to shoot with his right hand. Naito did not jump up, but raised his center of gravity to reach out to block the shot. The next moment, Murasaki collected the ball, turned around and threw it. Naito's center of gravity was shaken and he could no longer block it.
"Swish!" The ball went into the net, 2:0. 3 minutes and 17 seconds into the first half, the deadlock was finally broken, and Shohoku scored the first goal!
