NOVEL NEXT Chapter 47 Two against one
Lin Dong put on his spare jersey.
Uozumi's return has boosted Lingnan's morale a lot.
In the next round, Fukuda, Cross Country, and Ikegami actively moved around and used rounds of pick-and-rolls to finally force a hole in Xiangyang's defense.
Cross Country received a pass from Sendō and passed the ball to Ikegami. Ikegami held the ball in singles against Ito and made a three-pointer.
Unfortunately, the ball didn't go in. Yuzhu, who had returned, steadily picked off the backboard and held it tightly in his arms.
At this moment, let alone stealing the ball, even if two people came to drag it, they would never be able to drag the ball away from Uozumi Jun's hands.
The flower shape behind him immediately hit the ground, and at the moment when their strength came into contact, Uozumi was also very happy. With the help of the center of gravity of the body's confrontation, he turned around and shot a jump shot just after the collision.
At this time, he was in the three-second zone, and the shot from this distance was completely in vain for him. Hana Xingtou's take-off was half a beat too slow, and he had no time to block the shot.
Stable!
Uozumi roared angrily, but the next second the wind blew up in his ears!
A big hand actually stretched out from behind him and snatched the basketball he was about to throw out of the air.
Yuzhu was startled. He had already made a shooting movement with his wrist, but the basketball was no longer there. He didn't recover, but he heard the uproar in the arena first.
"So high!"
It's really high. The guy jumped too high after the fish settled in!
Jun Uozumi is 202 centimeters tall, has a wingspan of 205 centimeters, and a standing reach of 262 centimeters. Although his jumping is a little worse, his maximum reach when jumping on the spot can reach about 315.
This is already a pretty good height for a Japanese high school student.
But at this moment, the person jumping up behind him made people feel as if their head was almost parallel to Yuzhu's fingertips!
The big hand came around and hooked him, and the ball in Yuzhu's hand was like a fish on a chopping board, and he hooked it easily.
What the hell kind of talent is this... does that guy wear springs on his feet? !
Uozumi's face was full of disbelief.
The referee's whistle was also on his lips, but he did not blow it after all. Obviously, in his opinion, the ball did not have a player.
"Return to defense!" Xiandao shouted.
It’s that number 13 again!
At this moment, Uozumi Jun was furious in his heart, but Sendao's voice finally reminded him of his impulse just now and what he was here to do.
Why does this guy always show up at the most critical moments? !
His mind was shaking and he was holding his breath as he hurriedly returned to defend his position.
Probably because Xiangyang's players had already entered defensive positions just now, the counterattack and fast break failed to start this time. Instead, the nervous Lingnan took the lead in setting up the formation.
The counterattack and quick attack failed, but Lin Dong was not in a hurry.
He stabilized his rhythm a little and passed the midline with the ball.
But this time, he was no longer facing Chi Shang...
"..." Mu Shen sat in his seat without speaking for a long time, with only deep fear in his eyes.
Frankly speaking, Mu Shenyi has not spoken since Xiandao failed to defeat Lin Dong several times.
Lin Dong had completely tortured Rukawa Kaede before. Although Mu Shenyi could see that the opponent was very strong, his understanding of the so-called 'strong' was only vague.
After all, he has never played against Rukawa Kaede. He only thinks that he is a newcomer who looks to have very good skills. Lin Dong completely tortured such a person, what can it mean?
Street basketball will always be more gorgeous and beautiful than the professional game, but let the two sides really try to play a game? Once the confrontation comes up, the gorgeous street basketball will be beaten into confusion.
There are many keys to victory or defeat on the court, and it's not just physical confrontation. There are also many key qualities to becoming a king!
Confrontation, experience, mentality, physical strength, understanding of basketball, on-the-spot reaction, attitude when facing challenges, willpower when facing targeted difficulties, and even the unity in the locker room, etc., these are all what a king must possess. In terms of quality, only if one surpasses oneself in all these aspects can the throne be said to change hands.
So at that time, he didn't think that Lin Dong could definitely compete with him for the throne of Kanagawa.
But now...
Lin Dong's performance really broke his cognition.
That's the Immortal Way. Last year's Immortal Way already gave Amu some headaches. But this year, it can be seen that the Immortal Way's playing mentality, skills and even physical confrontation have all improved to a higher level.
But under that guy's defense, he was still blocked like Rukawa Kaede, and he didn't even dare to take action anymore. This...
If his skills are only slightly better than your own, then you may need to surpass or come close to yourself in other aspects before you can challenge his status as the king. But what if someone else’s skills are not only slightly better than yours?
Coupled with this terrifying physical talent...
"Lingnan lost." Gao Touli closed his folding fan and stared at Lin Dong in the field.
This guy's strength is simply beyond imagination. It seems that everyone really underestimated Shohoku who lost to them before, and also underestimated Shohoku's new ace Rukawa Kaede.
Sendō's skills are indeed more mature than Rukawa Kaede. Faced with such a predicament, although he didn't score a point, he could at least separate the ball and connect the team's offense. This is already a very impressive performance. It's a pity that Lingnan What's the use of other people...
…………
Lin Dong held the ball, and the stadium was filled with deafening cheers.
"One more! One more! One more!"
The audience went crazy. They had never seen a guy shoot a three-pointer like this.
Winning or losing is no longer important. Now no one thinks that Lingnan can still win.
But for the audience, how Xiangyang wins is very important!
They now wait for Lin Dong to perform 10 extremely difficult three-pointers in a row, pushing the point difference to more than 40 points in one fell swoop.
But just as Lin Dong crossed the center line with the ball, two people from Lingnan's side had already covered him up.
Sendō Akira and Ikegami Ryoji!
"Two against one!"
"Oh my God, Xiandao actually defended himself against Chi Shang!"
"Sendou-kun, have you already given up?"
"Hahaha! Lin Dong is the strongest!"
"This year our Xiangyang must be the champion!"
There were exclamations in the stands, and the silence of Lingnan supporters was accompanied by the excitement of Xiangyang supporters.
Akira Sendō, the man who was hailed as the man with the best chance to challenge Emperor Mu last year, actually chose two-on-one when facing Xiangyang's Lin Dong. Was this a clear admission that his skills were inferior to others?
The buzz in the stands was so loud that Ikegami Ryoji couldn't help but look at Sendō next to him.
Frankly speaking, he felt that if he were an immortal, he would definitely collapse at this time. If he were given the choice, he would not be willing to make such a choice to admit defeat even if he saw the game lost.
But Sendao Akira's face was unusually calm.
"Watch the ball." Xiandao reminded him: "Guard one!"
Chishang looked awe-inspiring.
Give up? He felt that what he saw in Xiandao's eyes at this time was a strong fighting spirit.
Ordinary people may think that choosing two versus one at this time is a kind of admission of defeat, a kind of compromise, a kind of giving up and the destruction of confidence.
But the way of immortality is the way of immortality.
Yayoi Aida on the sidelines couldn't help but stand up. The players she likes are always right: "That's not giving up. He just doesn't care about personal honor. What he wants is the team's victory!" "
Not a bad attitude.
Even Lin Dong wanted to praise Xiandao.
This is where Rukawa Kaede is inferior to Immortal Dao.
but……
Are you sure this will work?
Lingnan has fallen into the trap and it's time to show his true art.
Lin Dong's body suddenly dwarfed. He did not choose Chishang on the right, but lowered his center of gravity and rushed forward towards the left side of the immortal path!
