Chapter 383: You can only score once with a ball like that!

Views:

Hayashidaira Kijiro made an ultra-long three-pointer in front of Jinguji Budou, and his goal immediately stopped the audience's cheers.

When Jinguji Budo saw the basketball fall into the net, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised.

Jinguji Budo knew that Hayashidaira Kijiro could shoot three-pointers. After all, the people from Shohoku had watched Meiho Industrial's previous games.

But when he actually got on the court and saw the opponent shooting the ball two meters away from the three-point line, Wudao still felt a little contemptuous.

This was the high school basketball scene in the 1990s. Not to mention players who could shoot ultra-long three-pointers, there were not many players who could even use three-pointers as their regular weapon.

Not to mention high school students who are good at three-pointers, even in professional games, the role of three-pointers is just icing on the cake.

Wudao didn't believe that Hayashidaira Kijiro would dare to shoot such a ball under his defense, but the facts still slapped Wudao's face. Hayashidaira Kijiro was obviously a very confident person. Facing Jinguji Wudao, he not only dared to shoot such a ball, but also scored the ball!

This made Wudao look at Hayashihira Kijiro with admiration. It was not surprising that he had the ability to shoot long three-pointers, but he dared to use it when facing strong enemies in the game. This mentality was very outstanding.

"As I recall... your name is Hayashidaira Kijiro?"

"Captain of Meiho Industries... I'll remember you."

Wudao turned his head, smiled at Hayashidaira Kijiro and said.

When Hayashihira Kijiro heard these words, his expression remained unchanged. He turned around and ran towards his own half of the court. Hayashihira Kijiro was still able to maintain a serious expression in front of Jinguji Budo a second ago, but when he turned around, Hayashihira Kijiro clenched his right fist in front of his chest, looking excited.

Being able to score such a goal in front of Jinguji Budou, even an excellent player like Hayashidaira Kijiro couldn't help but feel excited.

In this country, any high school student who has any ambitions to win the national championship will know Jinguji Budo of Shohoku High School.

There is no reason, it's simply because Jinguji Budo is strong! Although the Xiangbei High School he led was not ranked high, all the teams that watched Xiangbei games knew that Xiangbei High School was very strong, so strong that it was not at the same level as other ordinary teams.

And Xiangbei's trump card, Jinguji Budou, is the person that all players hope to defeat with their own hands.

Being able to score in front of Jinguji Budou gave Hayashihira Kijiro hope of defeating his opponent!

"Wow~ He's still a very cool player."

Wu Dao saw that the other party turned around expressionlessly and ignored him, and the smile on his face became even brighter.

He turned around and shouted to Mitsui Shou who was receiving the ball in the backcourt: "Xiao San, pass the ball to me."

"Oh, okay."

Mitsui Shou heard Wudao's call and did not refuse, but replied with a smile. Mitsui Shou had already thought of such a situation. The opponent actually performed a super long three-pointer in front of Jinguji Wudao. With Jinguji Wudao's personality, how could he be responded to

The ace of Xiangbei High School is not a person without any reputation!

Mitsui Shou quickly dribbled the ball into the frontcourt. Not long after Mitsui Shou crossed the center line, Jinguji Budou had already approached the three-point line at the corner.

Without waiting for the defending Hayashidaira Kijiro to make any move, Mitsui Shou called out to Takeshi and passed the ball directly to Jinguji Takeshi.

Wudao heard Mitsui's call and turned slightly to prepare to catch the ball. However, at this moment, Hayashi Ping Kijiro suddenly jumped out from Wudao's side, and his back leaned directly on Jinguji Wudao's body, actually trying to go around to defend.

The extremely fast movement speed made Jinguji Takeshi, who was trying to block the position, look slightly stunned.

"I got it!" Seeing the basketball flying towards him quickly, Lin Ping Guijiro was secretly happy. He looked at the basketball in the air, slightly bent his knees and prepared to control the ball in his hands.

However, at this moment, Hayashi Ping Kijiro suddenly felt a huge force coming from behind him. The powerful force actually made Hayashi Ping Kijiro stagger. Just when Hayashi Ping Kijiro lowered his center of gravity and tried to stand firm, the figure of Jinguji Budou quickly jumped out from his side, jumped high and grabbed the ball in his hand.

After getting the ball, Takeshi Jinguji quickly swept the ball to the basket, lightly tapped his right foot to the right, and faked a three-point shot with the basketball in his hand. After a tentative step, he directly shot the three-pointer.

"This guy has such a fast attack speed!"

The position where Jinguji Budou shot the three-pointer was nearly two meters away from the three-point line. When he and Hayashidaira Kijiro were fighting for the basketball, they were already some distance away from the three-point line.

Shooting from this position immediately attracted exclamations from the audience.

"I've surrendered. Jinguji Budo intends to fight back!"

"Three-point shot, his movements are so smooth, and his shooting speed is so fast!"

Amid the exclamations of the audience, the basketball flew straight toward the basket. After shooting the ball, Jinguji Budo only took a glance at the path of the basketball, then confidently turned around and returned to the court to defend.

“Swish!”

Just in the next second when Jinguji Budou turned his back to the basket, the basketball fell straight into the basket with a crisp sound.

"Wow—" The audience who were exclaiming in surprise a second ago immediately cheered when they saw the basketball go into the net, and burst into amazing cheers.

Jinguji Budou and Hayashi Pingjiji both made long three-pointers, but the cheers they received were completely different. Obviously, the audience's expectations of the two were completely different.

"Well done, Budo."

“Good throw!”

Before Mitsui got close to the top of the arc after passing the ball, Jinguji Takeshi had already scored. Mitsui was not surprised by Takeshi's terrifying offensive efficiency. When Takeshi was about to return to defense, he and Takeshi celebrated with fist bump. And Akagi Takenori also followed Takeshi and Mitsui from behind and praised them.

It took only about five seconds from the time Xiangbei High School served the ball from the backcourt to the time Jinguji Budo entered the frontcourt and scored the ball. The terrifying offensive efficiency made the players of Meipeng feel more pressured.

Hayashidaira Kijiro, who had just been secretly delighted because he scored a goal in front of Jinguji Takeshi, no longer felt happy. He looked at Jinguji Takeshi's back with a serious expression on his face.

"As expected of Jinguji martial arts, it is really strong."

"He was able to shoot a three-pointer directly from that position after a low sweep and a tentative step. This guy's core strength is terrifying."

"And the shooting point is also very high. Unless I can predict his next move, otherwise, that kind of height is simply out of my reach."

"One on one, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop his attack..."

Hayashibei Kijiro has a clear understanding of his own strength. Perhaps in the eyes of his teammates at Meiho Industries, Hayashibei Kijiro's strength is not much different from Jinguji Budo.

But only Hayashihira Kijiro himself knows that the gap between him and Jinguji Budo is very huge... That gap cannot be bridged by fighting will or hard training.

Talent, absolute talent gap!

“Surpass myself. Only by surpassing myself can I have a chance to lead Mingpeng to win the game.”

"In that case, let me compete with you to see who has the stronger attack power!"

Hayashihira Kijiro made up his mind and ran to the front court. During the alternation of offense and defense, the players of Meiho Industry had already advanced rapidly towards the Xiangbei half of the court.

After crossing the midline, Lin Ping Guijiro asked his teammates for the ball early. He knew that if he got close to the three-point line, Jinguji Budo's defense would come up, and at that time, it would not be easy for him to catch the ball.

But if he could get the ball earlier, he would have the opportunity to use his ability of long three-pointers to make Budou Jinguji hesitate. Maybe, he could also find a loophole in Budou Jinguji's defense and complete a breakthrough or a shot.

Although scoring a goal with the ball increases some risks, compared with the possible benefits, such a risk is worth taking!

The basketball was quickly passed from the hands of Meipeng's point guard to the hands of Hayashidaira Kijiro, who took the ball and quickly swept it towards the basket.

At the same time, Jinguji Takeshi, who was originally defending inside the three-point line, quickly came out and did not stay inside the three-point line at all.

Since he knew that the opponent dared to shoot that kind of ball in the game, Wu Dao could not remain indifferent and let the opponent shoot three-pointers.

Such a gamble is totally unnecessary for martial arts.

As long as the opponent is defeated, Mingpeng Industrial's attack will naturally be unable to proceed!

"Here it comes..." Jinguji Budo quickly stepped forward, and Hayashi Ping Guijiro's expression became serious. He tapped his right foot to the right and swept the basketball in his hand to the right. It was exactly the same as Budo's previous move, a tentative step after turning around with the ball.

"Huh?!" Seeing this, Wudao let out a sigh and quickly moved his body to block to his left. Just as Jinguji Wudao was about to move, Lin Ping Guijiro quickly received the ball and shot a three-pointer.

The series of postures and movements were exactly the same as what Jinguji Budo had done before!

"Three-pointer? Another long three-pointer?"

"The exact same moves as Jinguji Budo?! How is this possible?!"

The audience exclaimed when they saw that Hayashikijiro's shooting action was exactly the same as the one Jinguji Budo had shot before. Even Rukawa Kaede and Sakuragi from Xiangbei High School turned their eyes to Hayashikijiro, feeling a little unbelievable.

Just when everyone thought that Hayashidaira Kijiro could put the ball into the basket like he did just now with Takeshi, something strange happened on the field.

In front of Hayashihira Kijiro, Jinguji Budo, who was clearly bent over to defend against a breakthrough the previous second, quickly adjusted his posture the moment his opponent shot, jumped directly on the spot, and blocked the basketball in the air with one hand.

Jinguji Budou has a very long arm span and terrifying explosive power. Combined with his bounce and height, he can directly catch the basketball in mid-air.

“Bang!”

The next moment, Jinguji Budo grabbed the ball with one hand and landed on the ground. He pressed the basketball tightly with both hands, raised his head and glanced coldly at Hayashi Pingu Kijiro, and whispered: "Do you think you are me?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Takeshi Jinguji quickly dropped the ball and accelerated, running towards the front court. With just two simple steps, Takeshi Jinguji's movement speed had increased to the maximum. He directly passed Hayashi Ping Kijiro and other Meiho Industries players and quickly attacked Meiho's half.

"Go back to defense! Go back to defense quickly!"

"Stop him, stop him quickly!"

The players of Meiho Industries shouted loudly and kept running, quickly chasing in the direction of Jinguji Budou. However, Jinguji Budou's speed with the ball was amazing. Although the players of Meiho tried hard to catch up, it was quite difficult to close the distance.

In just a few seconds, Jinguji Budou, who had counterattacked with a block, had already entered the basket of Meiho Industries, and then flew up and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand.

Jinguji Budou's cool and sharp dunk immediately attracted cheers from the audience. After scoring the goal, Budou landed quickly and turned back to defend. On the way back, he passed by Hayashidaira Kijiro and whispered in his ear:

"You can only score a goal like that once!"

"I won't give you that chance again."

"Hayashihira Kijiro, I have high hopes for you, so I will do my best to defeat you!"

After saying that, Jinguji Budou trotted towards his own half of the court. When Hayashi Ping Guijiro heard this, he couldn't help but stop and turned his head to look at Jinguji Budou's back, his eyes full of determination.

In the subsequent games, Jinguji Budou really did what he said, and used all his strength. Jinguji Budou alone took on the entire offensive end of Xiangbei High School. Hayashi Ping Guijiro's defense was useless in front of Jinguji Budou. He was not as tall as Jinguji Budou, and his strength was also much worse.

Although Hayashiwa Kijiro's speed is not bad, his footwork is not very flexible when defending. Therefore, under Jinguji Budou's various rhythm changes, Hayashiwa Kijiro can't keep up with Jinguji Budou at all, and is repeatedly broken through by Jinguji Budou.

With the center gate wide open, no one at Meiho Industries was able to stop Jinguji Takeshi's attack on the basket. The two inside players of Meiho were no match for Jinguji Takeshi, and after being broken through, Takeshi easily broke through their defense.

Under the leadership of Jinguji Budo, Shohoku High School's attack was unusually smooth.

But on the other hand, Meiho Industries, which had difficulty defending, also had an extremely difficult time attacking. In front of Jinguji Budo, Hayashi Ping Guijiro simply did not have the ability to attack alone, and his several attacks were all blocked by Jinguji Budo.

In the one-on-one matchup, Jinguji Budo had the advantage.

Hayashidaira Kijiro wanted to use the strength of his teammates to help them with pick-and-roll on the offensive end, hoping that his teammates could break through Shohoku's defense and score points, but unfortunately, the other players of Meiho Industrial were not in good shape and missed many open shots.

As one side gained strength while the other lost, the score between Shohoku High School and Meiho Industrial began to gradually widen.

Eight minutes into the first half, Xiangbei High School was leading its opponent by 11 points with a score of 18:7.

Xiangbei High School had an overwhelming advantage in this game, and this situation also made the audience in the stands cheer excitedly.
