Chapter 157: The battle for the strongest small forward

~6 min read 1,061 words

"Hayama's dribble was stolen? How is this possible?"

The people from Yamagata Junior High showed expressions of disbelief.

This scene was even more terrifying than watching a horror movie alone at home in the early morning.

In their memory, Hayama Kotaro's dribble was the fastest, no one else; no one could destroy his dribble from the front.

As a result, this scene happened before their eyes.

Teikou immediately launched a counterattack.

Nijimura Shuzo picked up the ball and threw it hard to the front court.

Tian Lizi completed the steal and turned to run wildly, with Hayama Kotaro chasing closely behind.

"Pop."

Tian Lizi caught the ball first and drove into the penalty area side by side with the other side.

While Hayama Kotaro was still thinking about how he should play this ball, Tian Lizi threw the ball behind him.

Midorima happened to arrive, caught the basketball, and shot it!

"This ball is in!" The commentator on the sidelines shouted confidently, and the basketball went into the net.

The four-eyed kid was definitely not the most dazzling one among the few first-year students in Teikou.

He didn't have Aomine's highly ornamental playing style, didn't have Murasakibara's visible talent, didn't have Tian Lizi's flamboyant personality, and of course, didn't have Akashi's money.

Any head coach who had watched Teikou's matches would never forget this little brat wearing glasses.

Because Midorima had a three-point ability that made people stare in astonishment.

So far, Midorima's open three-point shooting percentage was a perverted 76%, surpassing all participants in the National Tournament.

In previous National Tournaments, a player who could throw a three-pointer with a shooting percentage of around 45% was already a sharpshooter.

Midorima had increased it by a full 31 percentage points, and could throw in 5.1 three-pointers per game.

What does this mean?

It means that Midorima's extra average value was more accurate than Westbrook's three-pointer!

Such an outstanding outside artillery, any knowledgeable head coach would keep it firmly in mind.

Even beside Tian Lizi, his light couldn't be covered; he didn't show his mountains or water, but he could contribute about 15 points per game.

Stable to the point of being scary.

If Teikou let Midorima throw freely, it wouldn't necessarily be who Teikou's scoring leader was.

6:0, Teikou gave the other side a head-on blow as soon as they came up.

"Stare at him, don't let him shoot easily." The Yamagata head coach on the sidelines roared with dissatisfaction.

Aiming at Tian Lizi, they made many defensive deployments, but they still let the other side take whatever they wanted; how could this be?

Hayama Kotaro raised his hand helplessly, indicating that it was his own problem.

In his heart, he felt that he had defended very well.

If his teammates had returned to defense in time, could that four-eyed green algae head have gotten an open shooting opportunity so easily?

Tian Lizi's passing really made Aida Riko feel surprised; he was as stable as a point guard.

Few small forwards could pass the ball to the teammate in the best position as lightly as he did.

Most small forwards in the National Tournament today had the task of charging and fighting.

Just like Hayama Kotaro, his primary task in this Yamagata lineup was to constantly impact the opponent's defense, like a sharp knife, to tear open Teikou's defense.

This was also the function of most small forwards.

And Tian Lizi, his performance was too comprehensive.

Aida Riko found it difficult to find a player similar to Tian Lizi.

Barely finding a similar one, there was only the Celtics legend Larry Bird.

As for James, he didn't have such strong shooting ability.

Little did they know, Tian Lizi's style was really imitating James.

Don't look at James's single offensive method now; most of his scoring means relied on impacting the inside.

However, in a few years, after suffering failure in his first season with the Heat, he would develop his mid-range shooting ability in the second year. He also hit a jump shot in the finals that was enough to kill the match.

Then there was the development of three-point ability; after returning to the Cavaliers, his three-pointers began to become his regular weapon.

By the time he reached the Lakers, his three-pointers had stabilized, making him still quite threatening even after entering the later stages of his professional career.

In short, this old man seemed to be able to improve every year, becoming more demonic as he got older.

Tian Lizi admired him from the bottom of his heart; he was too capable of rolling.

Under normal circumstances, players over 35 or simply 30, whether basketball players or football players, have long had their styles set and it is difficult to change.

This requires not only a lot of time but also hard training.

Think about those stars, they are already thirty years old, have earned enough money, and it's time to enjoy life, and they are still risking their lives with you?

James and Ronaldo are a few who can still complete the transformation in the later stages of their careers.

They deserve to be able to maintain a high level of competition for a long time.

The match continued, and Hayama Kotaro didn't become honest because of one failure.

He didn't think his Thunder Dribble couldn't break through Tian Lizi's blockade.

This time, he was at full power, his five fingers firmly grabbed the basketball, and after a violent pat...

"Dong."

The audience in front of the screen only felt a shake of the earth, and the screen of the mobile phone and computer shook endlessly.

'I knock, you still say this is not a superpower?'

'My goodness, is this really dribbling? Why does it feel like an earthquake?'

'Perverted, are even gods playing basketball now?'

'What kind of National Tournament are you still playing, go to the Clippers to report tomorrow, Tian Lizi come to our Lakers.'

'Your mother's abacus hit my face, is my broken ship not a hundred times stronger than your Lakers now? Can you play in the playoffs?'

'.......'

The barrage teacher was very shocked.

It was really because the movement made by Hayama Kotaro's dribbling was too big.

Under the blessing of the production team's special effects, he was really like a thunder beast, wrapped in golden lightning all over his body.
