Slam Dunk Fox Rukawa

"I don't know what you are anxious about?"

Rukawa said in a deep voice to the first-year team members who returned to the rest area,

"I've told you a long time ago that you should play your own style based on your own characteristics, don't care about the score, and play rationally. But look at you just now, your offense is impatient, your defense is not calm enough, and the whole team seems restless. So.

Although we are ahead in the score, I still call you down and hope that you can calm down, otherwise you will be greeted by a disastrous defeat. Don't talk and calmly think about your performance in the past few minutes."

After Rukawa finished speaking, he ignored Sakuragi and the others. The first-year players, including Sakuragi, each pondered the pros and cons of their performance just now. Rukawa glanced at Sakuragi and saw that Sakuragi did not ignore him after hearing his words.

I am still thinking, this is rare, it seems that I still have a lot of influence on Sakuragi.

Because it was a team training, the timeout was not as tight as an official game. Ayako saw that Rukawa and the others were not making any movement, so she did not urge them to play.

Coach Anzai saw that Rukawa could decisively pause the game and adjust before the first-year defeat was revealed. He sighed to Rukawa again: "Rukawa Kaede's basketball IQ is indeed very high. I don't know what I can teach him?

"

After a while, Yohei took the lead and said to Rukawa: "Rukawa, I just had the illusion of underestimating the enemy because of the continuous scoring and steals. I felt that the senior class was nothing more than that. Then when the senior class started to exert their strength, they were too impatient. Next, I

I promise it won’t be like this anymore.”

When Kuwata and the others saw Yohei expressing their feelings, they nodded like Rukawa and made the same promise.

Rukawa looked at Sakuragi and found that Sakuragi was very embarrassed and did not speak. Rukawa, who understood Sakuragi's personality, did not mean to embarrass him. He said to Sakuragi: "Sakuragi, your athletic talent is indeed amazing, but you have only been exposed to

Basketball has only been around for half a year, and the combination of Akagi and Tokuo you are facing is one of the best in the country, not to mention in Kanagawa. I think what you are currently considering is not to compete with them or defeat them, but to learn from the game.

Absorb their game experience and awareness, constantly improve yourself, and don’t lose your cool because of the gains and losses of individual goals. Our basketball career is still long! What do you think?”

"Yes, Rukawa, I understand." Sakuragi answered Rukawa seriously.

After the game restarted, the senior class continued to perform wonderful performances. Mitsui made sudden outside shots, and neither Ishii nor Yohei could restrict him very well; Mumu also scored from the outside, and often assisted Akagi to score; Tokuo and Akagi

The inside combination completely overwhelmed Sakuragi and Ishioka. Only Yasuda was prevented from doing anything by Yohei and the others.

However, the first-year team also played vigorously. Yohei beat up Yasuda who was opposite him. Although he later switched to Mitsui to defend him, Yohei could not break through and shoot as he wanted, but Yohei still completed the organization very well.

work, and used pick-and-rolls to score from time to time.

Kuwata is the smallest, but he is the most familiar with the ball among the first graders besides Rukawa and Yohei, and his movements are also very fast, so after Yohei went to guard Mitsui, Kuwata and Yasuda basically canceled each other out.

Ishii started guarding Mitsui. Although he tried his best to limit Mitsui according to Rukawa's teachings, but his height and skills were too different. Later, he was replaced by him to guard Mumu. It was better to keep running with Mumu, which made his athletic ability poor.

Mu Mu didn't show much performance.

And Ishioka, who only appeared in the original work when he joined the team, and who probably quit the basketball team later, surprised Rukawa. Although he is 1.8 meters tall, he is thin and thin, and his defense is very good.

They are quite tough. Although he and Sakuragi can't compete with Akagi and Tokuo, they don't let the inside line become a place for the senior team to score points at will. Moreover, Ishioka also has good mid-to-long-range shots. He and Yohei each shot.

He scored a 3-point goal, which caused De Nan to be pulled out of the inside line when the senior team was defending, thus preventing the senior inside line from becoming a no-fly zone for the first-year team.

Sakuragi, who lacks game experience, has indeed grown rapidly in the game. He often uses his excellent athletic ability to squeeze in from the gap between Akagi and Tokuo to grab offensive rebounds. When defending, whether it is Akagi or Tokuo.

Men, in one-on-one attacks, they don’t dare to shoot to Sakuragi easily, and Sakuragi is no longer greedy for credit. After grabbing rebounds, he basically hands them to others, except that he can directly face the hoop.

Shoot the ball under the basket or dunk.

So at the end of 15 minutes in the first half, the senior class only led by 9 points, 38:29.

During the intermission, Sakuragi started to be arrogant again, "Fox, how are you? This genius performed well, hahaha."

Rukawa looked at the smug Sakuragi, and it was hard to criticize him, saying that Akagi and Tokuo didn't use their full strength at all, because preaching too much would be counterproductive, so he simply nodded, "Well, not bad, let's continue working hard in the second half."

After Sakuragi received Rukawa's approval, he jumped up to Ye Zi and began to boast and sell himself, "Yi Zi, you just saw that this genius grabbed the rebound directly from the heads of Gorilla and Tokuo and successfully dunked it.

Did you get that ball? And..."

After Mitsui saw Sakuragi excitedly showing off to Ye Zi, he said to Akagi, "Akagi, it seems that Sakuragi who is opposite you is very excited. If you make him so proud, I won't

Mind if I guard him in the second half."

"Hmph, just mind yourself. Yohei was very active in the first half. Sakuragi, huh, I will teach him how to play in the second half." Akagi replied nonchalantly while wiping his sweat.

After a 5-minute rest, the second half began. Shiozaki replaced Yasuda in the senior team, and the others remained unchanged. In addition to letting Sakuragi and Yohei continue to accumulate game experience, the first-year team Rukawa asked Hirase, Horikoshi and Ikenonai

Replaced Sangtian and three others.

At the beginning of the game, Akagi took the lead in exerting force in the interior. After hitting Sakuragi twice in a row, Akagi turned around, then forcefully took off and pressed Sakuragi to shoot the ball.

"Asshole." Sakuragi reacted half a beat too late because he didn't expect Akagi to ignore his defense and shoot directly.

In the next attack of the first-year team, Yohei continuously used the screens of Horikoshi and Ikenonouchi to shoot mid-range shots near the left baseline. However, the ball did not go in. Sakuragi went to the basket and jumped up high with a shout of "mine".

, seeing that Sakuragi was about to get the rebound, but Akagi also took off and collided with Sakuragi. As a result, neither of them could get the basketball, and the basketball was won by Tokuo next to him.

"Asshole, you fouled Gorilla." Sakuragi was nagging in his ear after Akagi when he ran back because he failed to grab the rebound.

"Huh, idiot." Akagi ignored Sakuragi and continued to run inside. He also took the basketball hung by Mitsui and prepared to shoot directly.

"Don't even think about it." Sakuragi jumped up decisively to block the shot, but Akagi was just a fake move. He waited for Sakuragi to jump up, then looked at Sakuragi and hit the ball against the board.

"Beep" Ayako signaled Sakuragi to foul, and the senior team added an additional free throw.

"Damn gorilla." Sakuragi was obviously a little anxious.

After Akagi made a steady free throw, the senior team led by 14 points at 43:29.

"Don't worry, Sakuragi. It doesn't matter whether we win or lose. The key is that we have to show our full ability in the game." Yohei patted Sakuragi's butt, trying to calm Sakuragi down.

"Huh." Sakuragi took a few deep breaths to calm down his irritable mood a little.

However, in the next few attacks in the senior class, Akagi found Sakuragi. Akagi used his more flexible center steps than Sakuragi to panic Sakuragi so much that he couldn't figure out what was going on. Although Sakuragi tried his best to avoid fouls,

Still committed another 2 fouls, a direct 3 fouls.

Rukawa saw that Sakuragi couldn't calm down at all, so he had to replace Sakuragi with Suzuki.

Because of Sakuragi's demise, the 1.82-meter tall Ikenonouchi had to be moved to the center position, so the senior team quickly found a breakthrough from the first-year inside line, and the score was quickly opened up, with 5 minutes remaining.

, the senior class led the first-year team by 85:40, more than doubling the lead.

"Damn it, Fox, let me play. I want to defeat the gorilla. I can't let him continue to be so arrogant." Sakuragi couldn't help but said to Rukawa after seeing Akagi once again ravage the first grade team's hoop.

"Sakuragi, there is no problem in playing, but can you control your irritability?" Rukawa asked Sakuragi.

"No problem, no problem." Sakuragi nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.

When Rukawa saw Sakuragi's insincere answer, he didn't delve into it, and directly replaced Yohei with Sakuragi, who had been running without rest and was about to lose strength.

"Hmph, gorilla, this genius is back again, your luck has come to an end." Sakuragi's usual confidence made Akagi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"You idiot who only talks without practicing, I can't be bothered to care about you." Akagi left the sentence and went back to the defense.

"Wow, yeah, if you dare to ignore me, just wait, I will let you know the true ability of this genius."

After Sakuragi passed the ball to Suzuki on the baseline, Suzuki was about to dribble the ball across half-court when Sakuragi forcibly called him to take the ball back.

"Look at me." After Sakuragi caught the ball, he dribbled past the center line like a flying ball. Mitsui was caught off guard and was forced to pass by Sakuragi. Shiozaki, who was defending, was forced by Sakuragi's momentum and couldn't help but

His movements were a little slow, but Sakuragi forcefully blocked him.

Sakuragi directly faced the basket and Akagi under the basket.

"Suffer death." Sakuragi stepped on the free throw line and jumped high.

"Wow, yeah, jump up." Yasuda and others who were watching the battle couldn't help but sigh when they saw Sakuragi jumping so high.

"Don't underestimate me, you brat." Seeing that Sakuragi was ignoring him standing under the basket, Akagi kicked his legs hard, trying to knock Sakuragi down.

When Sakuragi jumped to the highest point, his hair faintly exceeded the rim. Then he drew a circle with his right hand holding the ball and looked down hard.

"clang!"

Sakuragi dunked with all his strength. Because he took off too far, he didn't dunk into the ring. Instead, he landed straight on the head of Takenori Akagi, who was about to block the shot, making a loud noise.
