On the other side, although Hanamichi successfully blocked Hanagata's shot, Shoyo still scored.

And Fujima's "picking up the leak" also aroused Hanamichi's competitive spirit:

"You substitute [Old Six Behavior], today I, a basketball genius, must make arrangements for you!"

"There is no cure for idiots!"

Rukawa Kaede secretly complained on the side.

The others also didn't understand Hanamichi's "nonsense", but it seemed that Hanamichi was ignited with passion, without the nervousness that Akagi, Mitsui, and Miyagi worried about before the game.

The three of them exchanged glances, "For the time being, trust him for once."

"Go! Hanamichi!"

So Miyagi made a ground pass and passed the ball to Hanamichi who had just run to the edge of the penalty area.

Before the game, Coach Anzai specifically reminded that against Shoyo's tall players, you must pay special attention to the way of passing the ball.

So Miyagi did not rashly take a direct pass, but chose a more concealed floor pass.

After receiving the ball, Hanamichi did not slow down and directly launched the "dynamite layup".

Hanamichi held the basketball tightly with both hands, gently brushed away Takano with his body, used his shoulders to make way, squeezed out enough space, and then jumped for a layup.

Takano was lucky that his static strength was not enough to affect Hanamichi's speed, so Hanamichi's layup was like a three-step layup in training, unaffected by anything, and the goal was scored smoothly, and Takano was not fouled by the special skill of "dynamite layup".

Outside the court, watching Hanamichi's successful layup, Coach Anxi couldn't help but say:

"Hanachi's layup skills are top-notch even in the country."

If Hanamichi heard this, he would definitely give Coach Anxi a thumbs up! His vision is sharp.

Hanamichi's "dynamite layup", this green skill was "snatched" from a top NBA star in the future on the basketball data panel. It can be said to be his signature skill, and it can make a difference even in the NBA!

In the current situation of Kanagawa and even Japan, it can be said that it is a shotgun to kill a mosquito - a waste of talent!

It is obvious that Takano alone cannot defend Hanamichi's layup. Then, a sharp contrast is formed on the court.

On one side, Hanagata continues to use backward jump shots to "train" Akagi unilaterally;

On the other side, Hanamichi starts the explosive layup mode after receiving the ball, "training" Takano unilaterally.

For a while, the two sides played back and forth, and the scoring points were all in the interior.

However, as the number of rounds increased, Xiangbei gradually took the lead.

When the game started about 3 minutes, the score between the two sides was 14:9, and Xiangbei was leading.

Off the court, Ryonan captain Jun Uozumi, who is also an inside player, explained for free:

"Because Akagi has gradually adapted to Hanagata's fadeaway jumper on the defensive end, his defense now begins to affect Hanagata every time. From the sidelines, Akagi will completely block Hanagata's fadeaway jumper in two or three rounds at most. As expected of Akagi, his defense is still as beautiful as ever!"

Hainan team captain Shinichi Maki also explained:

"Facing Hanagata's attack, Shoyo's No. 8 forward Takano not only couldn't stop it, but also paid a foul. From our perspective off the court, Hanagata's layup is really threatening and foul-inducing! Shoyo is in trouble."

At this time, Akagi finally came back and blocked Hanagata's shot when he made a jump shot.

This is not over yet. Takano, who received the blocked basketball, raised his hands and prepared to shoot.

Hanamichi, who was so angry about [Old Six's behavior], jumped higher than Akagi, blocked the basketball with a shot, and passed the ball to Miyagi, launching a fast break counterattack.

It was Fujima again, who successfully slowed down Miyagi's counterattack with the ball through constant interference from the wing. At this time, Takano and Nagano in the interior had already returned to defense, and Akagi and Hanagata were on the other side.

After Hanamichi's layup during this period, although Takano obviously couldn't defend him, from the position of returning to defense just now, Nagano, who was originally defending Rukawa, gradually approached Hanamichi, and it seemed that he was waiting for Hanamichi to receive the ball and double-team him.

Miyagi wanted to pass the ball to Rukawa when he saw this, but he didn't expect that Hanamichi, who was standing on the sideline of the penalty area, stretched out his hand to signal for the ball.

Considering that they were temporarily leading and the ball just came from Hanamichi, they passed the ball to Hanamichi.

After Hanamichi received the ball, Nagano and Takano double-teamed him. To be more precise, they formed a human wall in front of Hanamichi's face to prevent him from making a layup. They also raised their hands to prevent themselves from committing a foul.

Miyagi looked at Hanamichi holding the ball and thought:

"Will Hanamichi continue to break through and layup or pass the ball to Rukawa?"

Rukawa looked at Hanamichi and thought:Hanamichi turned his back to the basket and turned around in a familiar posture, so he decisively pulled his body back and prepared to return to defense.

At this time, Hanamichi turned around and took a step closer to the basket with his left shoulder, gently squeezed Nagano who was double-teaming him with his shoulder, and then jumped up with the rebound force, holding the ball with one hand in his right hand, and raised the ball high above his head from the right side. When he jumped to the highest point, he slightly exerted force on his wrist and gently flicked the ball into the basket.

The whole movement was smooth and silky. Under the baptism of the spotlight of the competition venue, the basketball fell into the basket with a perfect parabola, and the ball went in!

The venue was boiling!

"He can score even in the face of double-teaming. This red-haired guy is so amazing!"

"This goal-scoring posture is weird. What is it? Can anyone come out and explain it?"

Coach Anxi laughed with satisfaction, "Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho," and clapped his hands with Sakuragi who was returning to defense.

"Dad, how are the results of my special training?"

"Oh wow!"

Kiyota Nobunaga on the sidelines saw his competitor stealing the show, and when Shoyo had no good way to deal with him, he had to say with a stiff face:

"It's just a coincidence, a coincidence!"

Mitsui asked Rukawa Kaede:

"You knew about Hanamichi's trick a long time ago, right? So you returned to defense in advance when he made a move just now! The freshmen now are really amazing."

Fujima saw that his players were all stunned by Hanamichi's hook shot, so he decisively called a timeout.

More than 3 minutes into the game, Shohoku led Shoyo by 7 points with a score of 16:9, and Hanamichi scored 12 points alone, which was full of firepower.

"But Hanamichi has a weakness that is not a weakness, that is..."

Looking at Hanamichi who was complacent on the Shohoku bench, Coach Tanaoka couldn't help but worry and said.

"That's right, his weakness is that his scoring methods are all near the basket. In that case! Takano, next you go around the front to defend and prevent the opponent's No. 10 from receiving the ball in the restricted area, and let him receive the ball outside the restricted area. As long as he is not allowed to get close to the restricted area, his attack firepower will be reduced to the lowest!"

As a power forward, in Japan in 1992, his scoring methods were still mainly under the basket. Similarly, Hanamichi's scoring methods were mostly in the restricted area. As for the one step outside the restricted area, he could only do basic fixed-point jump shots. As for mid-range and long-range shots, Hanamichi said that the training shooting initiated by Coach Anzai would not be completed until the summer vacation! As for now, no!

After returning to the court, the Xiangyang team seemed quite confident. The audience who thought Xiangbei had the advantage were stunned by the next 8:0 wave of Xiangyang.

The Xiangyang team first completely defended Hanamichi and prevented him from getting close to the basket. Then Fujima scored two consecutive 3-pointers, catching Miyagi off guard, and broke through the restricted area to assist Hanagata to score a dunk.

It was at this time that Miyagi realized that Fujima was a genuine left-hander and was fooled by him for more than 3 minutes.

The score was 16:17, and Shoyo surpassed Shohoku by one point. At this time, Coach Anzai stood up from his seat, his glasses flashed, and his index finger pointed at Rukawa Kaede, signaling to Miyagi, and then continued to sit down as his mascot.
