Chapter 126: The Game Has Only Just Begun

The number of Seihou players collapsing on Yukimiya Kazuma inside the paint suddenly rose to two, and sometimes even three.

Yukimiya Kazuma could handle Iwamura Tsutomu one-on-one without much trouble, but going up against two, or even three muscle-bound opponents at once — even he felt the pressure. On the outside, Liang Huayin, stuck under Kasuga Ryuhei's defense, couldn't find an opening for a while either, and in the end had no choice but to pass the ball to Kasuga Yuji.

Kasuga Yuji drove in with the ball, but the moment he cut into the paint, Seihou's power forward, who had just left Yukimiya's side, rotated over and stole it.

"Too green, Kasuga-kun!"

"Damn—!"

Seihou's power forward launched a long pass, sending the ball far down the court. Seihou pushed the fast break, and the Bai Shui Hall players tried to keep up, but were still a step too late.

Seihou got two points.

"Sorry…" Kasuga Yuji's face was full of shame.

"It's fine, it's just one play — we'll take it right back." Yukimiya Kazuma smiled and ruffled his head.

Seihou's tactics were still effective, but in truth, keeping two men glued to one target for long stretches during a game isn't exactly a wise choice.

Of course, the Teikou-style "one man attacks while four watch" situation is the exception.

Sandwiched between two muscle walls, Yukimiya Kazuma's chances of grabbing the rebound dropped noticeably.

Of course.

No matter how you slice it, Yukimiya Kazuma's physical attributes were still right there on paper — even with two men on him, his rebound probability was still sixty, sometimes even seventy percent.

But Bai Shui Hall's offense really was being severely limited. With their rebound chances reduced, the team's confidence in taking shots dropped to a certain extent. Matsumoto Ikken was right — the reason Bai Shui Hall's players had the nerve to shoot wasn't because of themselves, but because of Yukimiya Kazuma.
