Slam Dunk: Muguro

Chapter 204 NBA's Biggest Melon
The next day, Kasumigaoka National Athletic Stadium!
It was 2:30 in the afternoon, half an hour before the game started, but the stadium was already packed with people, even the aisles were crowded.

In this round of competition, Xiangbei is still the highlight because their opponent is called Nanling High School.

Nanryo High School is located in Wakayama Prefecture and has attracted much attention because it is a private high school with only six players.

This basketball team has only 6 players, all of whom are high school seniors, but they qualified for the winter competition in Wakayama Prefecture.

What an inspiring story, it feels like a comic book shining into reality.

By the way, these six players are all boarding students from other places.

Among them, the captain of the Nanling team, Ninomiya Arishi, attended junior high school in Aichi Prefecture and was selected for the U15 team of the local professional team in the second year of junior high school.

As long as he is admitted to the local high school, he can go directly to the team's U18 team.

However, Ninomiya Arisuke has always had a dream, he wants to participate in the summer national competition.

So, Ninomiya Ariyoshi decided to leave Aichi Prefecture and finally chose Nanryo High School in Wakayama Prefecture.

As for why you wanted to go to high school in Wakayama Prefecture?

1. The Wakayama Nanryo High School basketball team performed well.

Second, Nanling High School’s playing style is very suitable for him.

Third, there are too many strong basketball schools in Aichi Prefecture, and the competition is very fierce. In recent years, it has been monopolized by Aiwa Gakuin and Meiho Industries.

It’s not that Ninomiya Arishi doesn’t want to join these two prestigious schools, but he is very self-aware and thinks that with his own strength, it will be difficult for him to get a chance to start in a short period of time.

Therefore, Ninomiya Arishi decided to move away from his hometown and come to Wakayama Prefecture where there was less competition, hoping to take a shortcut and enter the summer national competition.

When Ninomiya Arishi entered Nanling High School, the team still had 46 players.

There are 14 freshmen who joined the team in the same year as Ninomiya Yuzhi, including Abubakar, a 205-centimeter-tall Nigerian student.

Given that each team had only 12 spots, they all thought they would have to go through fierce competition to get on the team roster.

As a result, just one month after entering the school, a major event happened at Nanling High School.

Nanling High School is a private school. In recent years, it has not been able to recruit enough students, has been unable to make ends meet, is on the verge of bankruptcy, and often defaults on teachers' salaries.

Because of the withholding of wages, the teachers could no longer tolerate it and went on strike collectively.

After the incident was exposed, Nanling High School was banned from recruiting new students.

Subsequently, students in the school transferred to other schools one after another, resulting in fewer and fewer players on the team, and the survival of the basketball department was in jeopardy.

By the time Ninomiya Arisuke entered his third year of high school, there were only six players left on the basketball team.

The school was facing operational difficulties and was unable to provide funds for the basketball team's activities or provide decent meals for the players. Even the coach was provided free of charge by the physical education teacher in recognition of their efforts.

Even under such difficult conditions, they work hard for their dreams and are willing to give everything. Fortunately, their efforts are not in vain.

In the Wakayama Prefecture Winter Trials, they won all the way and even defeated their opponents 108 to 59 in the final, successfully winning the championship of the trials and qualifying for the winter competition in Tokyo.

Since the almost dilapidated school could no longer provide any financial support, each parent had to pay for the round-trip fare out of their own pockets to send their children to Tokyo to participate in the competition.

It is for this reason that, since Basketball Weekly reported the hardships of Nanling High School, Nanling High School has gained a lot of popularity and supporters.

Even so, Xiangbei's momentum is still firmly superior to Nanling High School.

In the Xiangbei locker room, just as the Xiangbei team was about to enter the player tunnel, Mitsui's expression suddenly changed and he subconsciously covered his buttocks with his hands.

Please don't get me wrong, he is not a master of chrysanthemum crab sacrifice or being back-hit like Goat.

It turns out that Goat strained not his groin, but his sphincter!

No wonder no injury report can be issued.

It turns out there is something unspeakable!

Once upon a time, Goat was one of his favorite players.

However, when he made the decision to use 123, his teammates were CBA, not 123456, and called himself Goat, his popularity was basically gone.

When the 'Puff Daddy' incident happened, Murasaki could no longer look straight.

He could only sigh that P. Diddy had unique taste.

Middle-aged people really know how to have fun!

The question is, where is the video? Where is the morality? Where is the address?

He also wanted to admire the elegance of middle-aged people!
Even five-star critic MacArthur said that he also wanted to criticize "Man vs. Apes" himself.

After this incident, which can be regarded as the biggest melon in the NBA, Goat was completely torn apart and turned into G0at!

Don't ask where it broke!
Only the two parties involved know the answer to this question.

Then, the name of "Puff Daddy" became a taboo word that the ape-chasing tribe was afraid of, just like Delonte West (the emperor).

Tell me whether it’s funny or not, but since watching the Chinese national football team, he has learned about the psoas muscle.

After watching the NBA, he got to know the groin and sphincter again.

Seeing Mitsui trembling, Akagi asked curiously: "Mitsui, where are you going?"

"bathroom!"

"No, you've been to the bathroom three times."

Akagi couldn't help but complain.

Looking at Mitsui's pale face, Mu Mu couldn't help but shook his head.

I'm afraid Mitsui really won't be able to play in this match, fortunately the opponent is not Sanno Industrial.

After defeating Changcheng High School yesterday, Mitsui was already feeling weak. Then in the evening, he drank a cold drink while watching the game between the Trail Blazers and the Clippers. How could his stomach bear it?

So, the Fire Man Mitsui Shou transformed into Rashid Mitsui Shou!
As for last night's NBA game, the Trail Blazers ultimately won.

Drexler scored 30+5+5, while his opponent Ron Harper only scored 15 points.

Which one is strong and which one is weak is clear at a glance.

As a "roommate", Murasakibara vaguely remembered that Mitsui went to the toilet several times that night and almost defecated.

"Mitsui, I think you should go to the hospital!"

"But I want to play!"

Although he really wanted to go to the bathroom, Mitsui tried hard to hold it in.

"You have to believe in us, I promise to bring a big win to the team."

Muguro paused for a moment and continued, "You are an indispensable member of our team. I hope you can stay healthy when we play against Sanwang Industrial and Buri!"

After being persuaded by Murasakibara and his teammates, Mitsui finally agreed and prepared to go to the hospital to stop diarrhea.

To be on the safe side, Coach Anzai asked two water dispenser managers to take Mitsui to the hospital.

Of course, Mitsui had to go to the toilet first, and it would be best to use an adult diaper to avoid flooding on the way, which would be embarrassing.

Not long after, the two teams left the player tunnel and came to the field to start warming up.

"Xiangbei, Xiangbei!"

"Nanling, Nanling!"

The moment the two teams appeared, the fans began to cheer.

In the stands, Tokuo Horita asked the two younger brothers in confusion: "Hey, why didn't you see Xiao San? Did you see her?"

The two younger brothers shook their heads to indicate that they didn't see it.

“Maybe it will come out in a while!”

Tokuo Horita made the decision, and he and his two younger brothers stared at the player tunnel eagerly, hoping that Mitsui would come out.

However, Mitsui still did not appear until the end of the warm-up.

At this moment, the three members of Horita Tokuo looked at each other, feeling worried. "Help me hold the flag, I'll go over and ask!"

Without hesitation, Tokuo Horita handed the flag to his younger brother wearing glasses and then squeezed into the audience.

"Sorry, sorry!"

Amid the audience's complaints, Tokuo Horita continued to move forward without hesitation while saying sorry.

Soon, Tokuo Horida finally arrived at the audience seats behind the Shohoku team's bench.

At this time, Coach Anxi was making the final mobilization.

"Mumu!"

As soon as he saw Horita Tokuo, Mu Mu immediately understood his motive and said, "Tokuo, you are here to look for Mitsui, right? He just went to a nearby hospital."

"what!"

Horita Tokuo exclaimed and asked hurriedly, "Which department of the hospital?"

"Maybe he went to the anorectal department!"

"Ah, anorectal department?"

At this moment, Tokuo Horita was daydreaming.

Mumu is Mitsui's roommate. Could it be that Mitsui was...

At this time, Mu Mu explained: "Mitsui's stomach is uncomfortable, I asked him to see a doctor."

Tokuo Horida immediately stopped the dirty thoughts in his mind and smiled embarrassedly.

"Thank you, I'll be right there!"

Tokuo Horita hurriedly thanked him.

After saying goodbye to Murasakibara, he immediately went to a nearby hospital with his two younger brothers.

It was only then that players from both sides began to take to the court.

Coach Anzai sent out a lineup of Akagi, Yuho Ikeda, Ichiro Sato, Mugure and Nobuhiko Okamoto.

Nanling High School
Center: Abubakar, 205 cm, 100 kg, third grade
Ohmae: Yuta Ohmo, 185cm, 80kg, third year
Komae: Nobuhiko Aota, 180cm, 73kg, third grade
Point guard: Yamaguchi Aokiji, 174 cm, 65 kg, third grade
Point guard: Ninomiya Yuzhi, 172 cm, 64 kg, third grade
Among these five Nanling High School players, the strongest one is the international student Abubakar.

At the same time, Abubakar is also the player with the highest altitude in this winter competition.

The second is Ninomiya Arisuke.

Ninomiya Arishi is not only the team captain, but also the soul of the team. He is good at three-point shooting and defense.

Thanks to the outstanding performances of Abubakar and Ninomiya Ariyoshi, Nanling High School was able to advance to the third round.

The other three players have not reached the starting level of a strong team, but they all have their own strengths and weaknesses.

Beep~
With the referee's whistle, the game officially begins.

During the jump ball stage, Abubakar overpowered Akagi and easily won the jump ball with a half-arm advantage.

“This guy jumps really high!”

When retreating to the basket, Akagi looked at Abubakar with eyes full of envy.

If he had such physical qualities, he could easily become one of the top four centers in the country.

Ninomiya Yuzhi almost stuck to the time and slowly dribbled the ball across the center line.

Nanling High School has only 6 players and must reduce the number of rounds as much as possible.

After wasting some time, Ninomiya Arisuke winked at Abubakar.

Ninomiya Arisuke: Follow my lead!
Abubakar immediately understood Ninomiya Ariyoshi's intention and quickly stepped forward to execute the pick-and-roll tactic, using his broad body to block Okamoto Nobuhiko.

Nobuhiko Okamoto subconsciously thought that Ninomiya Ariyoshi was planning to break through the defense with the help of a pick-and-roll, so he went around Abubakar and tried to block the possible breakthrough route.

However, Nobuhiko Okamoto's prediction was wrong.

He did not see Ninomiya Ariyoshi, because Ninomiya Ariyoshi did not choose to break through, but took advantage of Abubakar's cover and shot a three-pointer without hesitation.

shuh~
The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and fell into the basket accurately.

With this three-pointer, Nanling High School took the lead.

After making the three-pointer, Ninomiya Arisuke was visibly relieved.

He was well aware of the difficulty of this game, considering that the opponent was the famous Shohoku team.

If they want to defeat the powerful Xiangbei team, his and Abubakar's performance is crucial, and the key still lies in his three-point shooting.

If he could make a lot of three-pointers like Mitsui did in the previous game, Nanling High School might have a chance of defeating Shohoku.

Offense and defense transition!

Nobuhiko Okamoto quickly dribbled the ball across half court. Unlike Nanling High School, the Xiangbei team decided to speed up the pace to further consume the physical energy of the Nanling players.

After passing the basketball to Murasakibara, Murasakibara then passed it to Akagi who was in the low post.

Akagi started to play one-on-one with his back to the basket, and he first leaned forward.

bang~
As expected, Abraka did not move an inch.

There is a big difference in weight between the two men, and Abubakar can easily hold off Akagi without even having to lower his center of gravity.

After the test, Akagi began to feint left and right.

Abubakar was affected and his focus began to change.

Akagi felt the change in Abubakar's position with his back, turned around immediately, wiped the ball away, and rushed towards the paint area.

Just as Akagi stepped into the basket and jumped to slam dunk, Abubakar suddenly appeared behind Akagi and blocked his shot with a brutal shot.

bang~
A dull sound was heard and the backboard shook noticeably.

Abubakar grabbed the rebound and immediately passed the ball to Ninomiya Arisuke.

Just like before, Ninomiya Ariyoshi slowly carried the ball across half court in a calm manner.

He carefully observed every detail on the court, looking for the best time to attack.

Soon, Abubakar stepped forward to screen again.

Nobuhiko Okamoto obviously noticed it, and he quickly stepped forward, trying to get close to Ninomiya Ariyuki.

As a thin and small player, Ninomiya Arishi possesses excellent explosive power.

Although his speed and explosiveness are not as good as Miyagi's, it is no problem for him to break through Nobuhiko Okamoto's defense.

He has light and quick feet and superb ball control, easily tearing through the opponent's defense.

After breaking through Nobuhiko Okamoto's defense, Ninomiya Ariyoshi suddenly stopped and took a mid-range jump shot.

shuh~
The basketball hit the basket accurately like a precision-guided missile.

Hua Hua Hua~
There was a warm cheer in the gymnasium. Many spectators were excited about Ninomiya Ariyuki's performance, and at the same time, they hoped that Nanling High School could continue to win.

The Shohoku team launched another attack. This time, Murasakibara took the initiative to ask for the ball, preparing to score a goal first.

Nobuhiko Okamoto immediately passed the ball, and then he and his teammates dispersed to create enough space.

Murasakibara easily broke through Yamaguchi Aokiji's defense and rushed straight to the paint area.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Abubakar immediately left Akagi behind. He had great explosive power and appeared under the basket first.

The two of them jumped up almost at the same time. At the moment when Mu Mu was gliding in the air, he felt as if everything around him seemed to have quieted down.

In this state, the opponent's movements seemed to slow down a lot.

It’s a very strange feeling!
