Chapter 120 The anxious battle
Time passed like this in the three-pointer battle between the two, and after Sakurai was blocked in another attack and Midorima scored another long-range three-pointer.
When Sakurai was preparing to attack, he came to his teammates and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry everyone. I lost."
Facing Sakurai's downcast apology, Imayoshi and others did not blame each other. After all, that was Midorima Shintaro.
It can be said that they are on the same level as Qingfeng, and they were prepared to lose long before the two faced off.
And Sakurai's performance wasn't that bad. At least he managed to score a goal over Midorima with his unpredictable shot timing.
In addition, our young players have also become stronger, which will also be good for future games.
As for the point difference? 18 points is still within their acceptable range. After all, even if they fail, there is still Qingfeng who has explosive offensive power.
So when he attacked again, Imayoshi did not directly pass the ball to Sakurai and watch the show from the side as before. Instead, he dribbled the ball and watched the situation on the court.
As soon as Midorima saw this situation, he understood that the opponent in this duel had taken the initiative to admit defeat. At this time, Sakurai's voice also came to his ears.
"You are the winner in this duel. You are indeed better than me."
"But we will win this game because my team is stronger."
Midorima smiled when he heard Sakurai's words. He also recognized the opponent who took the initiative to recognize the reality and still maintained such a high fighting spirit.
"Thank you for your compliment. As a shooter, you are also very strong, but you are wrong about one thing, that is, we will not lose."
Then Midorima still stood in front of Sakurai, but began to pay attention to Imayoshi's movements, in case an unexpected situation required someone to defend him.
Now Ima Yoshi was dribbling the ball and looking at the situation on the court. Especially after noticing that Aomine had no idea of wanting the ball to participate in the attack, he understood that the opponent wanted to save the duel between the two until the second half.
Suddenly, Imayoshi passed the ball directly to Wakamatsu inside. With his first-class running ability, he may not be able to match Otsubo in rebounding.
However, the strength of the two is almost the same, and coupled with Wakamatsu's agile speed, it is very possible to score from Otsubo.
However, just when Imayoshi took the shot, the basketball was cut off by Takao's hand.
Seeing this, Imayoshi couldn't help but get a headache.
"Damn it, I forgot that your eyes are a bit outrageous."
Takao smiled and said: "Thank you for the pass, but I won't show mercy."
Although I think about it a lot, I am only a blink of an eye away from intercepting a high-tailed pass.
Then he saw that as soon as Takao finished speaking, he had already broken through Imayoshi and attacked Kirito.
Upon seeing this, Imayoshi turned around and chased after him, but someone was faster than him.
Seeing that the ball passed to him was intercepted, Wakamatsu yelled and chased Takao directly.
When Takao ran to Kiriou's three-point line, he already felt that Wakamatsu was about to catch up with him.
So Takao jumped up and made a shooting motion.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Takao's action. They had never heard that the opponent had the ability to shoot three-pointers.
However, Midorima, who was a tacit partner, immediately understood why Takao did this and ran out of space.
And Takao, whom everyone was staring at, did not shoot as everyone thought after jumping up.
Instead, he jumped up and passed the ball to Midorima behind him without looking at anyone. After receiving the ball, Midorima made a decisive shot and scored.
"You're too naive, idiot." Takao challenged Wakamatsu after seeing Midorima score.
"Damn it, you bastard!" Wakamatsu was also very angry when he saw Takao's behavior.
Then he turned to look at Imayoshi and said: "Inyoshi, pass all the balls to me later. I want him to look good."
Seeing Wakamatsu being easily stirred up by Takao, before Imayoshi could say his words of rejection, Aomine took the lead and said in a strange tone:
"You are really embarrassed like this. Are you so angry after being tricked once?"
Wakamatsu, who was already dissatisfied with Aomine, couldn't accept being ridiculed by Aomine, so he turned around and shouted at Aomine:
"Who is so angry? He's just a first-year brat. Just wait, I'll crush them and show you their inside story."
"It's you, since you choose to lie down, then just let me watch quietly!"
After saying that, without waiting for Qingfeng's reply, he turned around and walked towards Xiude's inside line.
Imayoshi, who originally wanted to warn Wakamatsu to calm down, saw this situation and stopped talking.
He glanced at Qingfeng imperceptibly, it was really easy to have such a trump card.
Then he dribbled the ball towards Xiudoku, while Takao defended tightly and refused to give an inch, not giving Imayoshi any chance to break through.
After Imayoshi tried several times and failed to break through, he suddenly saw Imayoshi running inside, so he faked a breakthrough again and quickly passed the ball to Wakamatsu's position.
After receiving the ball, Wakamatsu quickly rushed to the basket. Otsubo saw this and stepped forward to prepare for defense.
I saw Wakamatsu roaring and rushing towards Otsubo, holding the ball in front of him with both hands. He used his sprint to break through Otsubo's defense, then jumped high and smashed the ball in. basket.
Iwamura, who was watching the game, saw Wakamatsu staring at Wakamatsu's ball. As Otsubo's old rival, he knew how powerful Otsubo was.
Although he has the advantage of sprinting, Wakamatsu can easily push away Otsubo, which means that it is possible to push him away.
Moreover, tomorrow is their duel with Emperor Tong, so there is nothing wrong with observing their opponent more.
However, as one of the most influential insiders in Tokyo, Otsubo would not pretend that dunking on his head didn't exist.
This is indeed the case on the court. Otsubo, who was dunked on his head, took the initiative to ask for the ball when Xiude was attacking.
Takao considered that the opponent's Qingfeng had not actively participated in offense or defense from the beginning to the present, and there was no physical exertion at all.
However, Midorima has already 'solved' the opponent's shooting guard, and if he maintains his physical strength, the duel will be more promising.
In addition, their captain Taisuke Otsubo is a tolerant and reliable senior who will not lose to the opponent at the basket.
So Takao did not refuse Otsubo's request and passed the ball directly.
After Otsubo received the ball, he didn't waste any time and launched an attack directly, while Wakamatsu also stood firmly in front of him.
Wakamatsu stood there like a giant sculpture, waiting for Otsubo's charge.
Every collision was an all-out effort, and the two were wrestling with each other afterward.
In the end, Otsubo relied on his superior strength and his slightly taller body to successfully squeeze away Wakamatsu, then jumped up and poured the ball into the basket.
