Chapter 110
Not long after, the referee signaled for both sides' players to enter the court, and the cheers on the scene reached their peak.
After the "please take care of me," it was the real-deal hand-to-hand combat segment.
Murasakibara won the jump ball victory by virtue of faster reaction and jumping ability; the Pole opposite him was just a facade.
Aside from height, his wingspan, jumping ability, and athletic ability were all inferior to his own.
Teikou's first attack, Nijimura Shuzo did a pick-and-roll with Tiandao.
After Tiandao screened, he didn't roll inside, but pulled out to the three-point line.
Nijimura Shuzo thus obtained spacious breakthrough space, and then shot a mid-range stop-and-jump shot.
The opponent's power forward's footsteps couldn't keep up; the Teikou captain's rate in the same position is always a beat faster than others.
"Swish!"
The basketball went into the net hollowly, and Teikou fired the first shot.
Nijimura Shuzo's desire to attack today was exceptionally strong.
Understanding the importance of this match, he didn't intend to watch his juniors perform today.
Turning back, Seihou returned the favor.
The opponent's Lingbo Running Style indeed has its unique features.
One could see the opponent's captain, Kasuga Ryūhei, use a Euro-step to dodge the defender, and facing Murasakibara's sky-covering supplementary defense, he shot a layup first to score 2 points.
Teikou clearly hadn't adapted to the opponent's "shun-guai."
Even with Momoi's intelligence support, at best it could only accelerate this adaptation speed.
Murasakibara was a bit unhappy.
This is not his fault; this kind of "shun-guai" combined with a Euro-step is a major killer in basketball.
Turning back, Nijimura Shuzo once again used a teammate's pick-and-roll screen to rush inside the three-point line, and his mid-range jump shot went in again.
"Beautiful shot, worthy of being Teikou's captain."
"In the previous group stage, player Tiandao almost stole all the spotlight, but player Nijimura's performance is very stable; he can share data of 20+5+5 per game."
"Today, Seihou's defense against player Tiandao is clearly prepared; player Nijimura discovered their defensive loopholes, and both opening attacks were completed by himself."
The radio commentator gave Nijimura Shuzo high praise.
Teikou's captain is now the power forward people dream of; whatever you want, he has.
Nijimura Shuzo didn't let the fans down either; the previous group stage seemed like he was storing energy, and now that he reached the round-robin, he finally released it all. ===== CHAPTER 112 =====
