Popular characters in Kuroko

This gangster boss obviously prefers big guys to fat guys.

"Hmm?" Masako Araki suddenly felt a wave of malice coming and looked sharply in the direction of Kirisaki Daiichi.

"Are you here to gather intelligence?"

Masako Araki sneered, then picked up a bamboo sword and commanded the team members.

"If we let our opponent score a point today, you'll run back to Akita Prefecture."

The team members all looked at each other as if they were idiots.

This is the quarterfinals of the national competition, and we didn't let the opponent get a single point? Do you think we are gods?

But having said that, the Yangquan team members still accepted the challenge with a smile.

As soon as the game started, Murasakibara won the ball battle for his team with absolute advantage.

After Kensuke Fukui dribbled the ball across half court, a 4-5 opportunity appeared in the frontcourt.

Yangquan had 4 players against the opponent's 5. After winning the ball, Ziyuan ran to his own penalty area to guard it, and habitually licked the delicious stick left on his palm.

"Four against five? What is Yangquan planning?"

"Is this true? He's the core of the team, but he doesn't participate in the attack?"

The bad boy from Kirisaki said he had never seen it because it was too unfamiliar.

Even they wouldn't play in such an outrageous way.

"Because he's Kozuki." May smiled and shook her head. "He was like that in junior high. Kozuki always seemed unmotivated."

It can’t be said that it was like this from the beginning. It started when Xiaotian and Ah Da didn’t come to the team often.

"Xiao Zi is a very emotional person, and is often influenced by the people around her."

"what?"

Hanamiya Makoto and the others said they didn't understand.

Everyone in this Generation of Miracles is a monster, both in terms of strength and personality.

They haven't forgotten what Akashi did yesterday. He was a freak who even his parents wouldn't forgive when he got cruel.

Of course, our leader is not bad either.

"They are all a bunch of perverts." They sighed in their hearts, speechless.

however.

Even at 4 5, Yangquan completed this offensive very easily.

Their advantage in the interior is too obvious.

Without Murasakibara, there are still one or two big men in the interior, such as Iu Wei and Okamura Ken.

It would be better to say that without Murasakibara, their offensive performance could be even better.

After all, they were the team's official center and power forward last year, but this year they changed their positions to make way for Murasakibara.

"Oh!"

After receiving the ball, the Yangquan captain turned around and jumped up, slamming the ball into the basket with both hands.

They played very simply, but the opponents had no way to stop them because the height difference was too obvious.

On the defensive end, Yangquan is like an iron wall.

All four players were pulled to the three-point line, not giving the opponent any chance to shoot.

The restricted area was left to Murasakibara to guard alone.

Soon, people understood why Masako Araki did this and why Murasakihara received so much favor without even having to participate in the attack.

When the opponent saw that Yangquan's inside line was empty, they hurriedly used the screen to rush into the inside.

Without challenging Murasakibara, he made a quick stop and shot at the free throw line.

As a result, the next second, before they could make a move, they saw Zihara's body, which blocked out the sky and the sun, rushing towards them.

"How could it be so fast? Weren't we still in the paint just now?"

His face changed drastically and he quickly passed the ball to his teammate, who then cut into the penalty area and made a layup.

He was full of confidence in this shot, but unexpectedly, the purple-haired giant baby who was supposed to be near the free throw line pounced in front of him again and blocked his layup.

It's not a block, it's a damn catch!

This height, this weight, this athletic ability...

People gasped.

"Xiao Zi's defense range is the entire three-point line."

"The entire three-point line?"

Everyone in Kirisaki No. 1 was dumbfounded. Isn't this a natural nemesis for Kirisaki No. 1?

After all, apart from Tiandao, they seem to have no other means of outside attack.

But, well, it seems there is no need to worry.

Yangquan didn't seem to have any outside players who could stop their leader.

beep~

The first quarter is over.

Yangquan shut out the opponent 30:0.

They really did not let their opponents score a single point, and at the same time scored 30 points in a single quarter with an 8% shooting rate.

Araki Masako smiled with satisfaction.

Basketball was originally a famous sport for tall people. Because the rules of basketball were not perfect at that time, 10 players would often squeeze into the penalty area and fight each other.

Therefore, many inside beasts appeared at that time. Those who could stand out in a melee of ten people were all monster-level inside players.

Until the Magic Bird era, basketball was actually the world of inside players. Without an outstanding big man in the lineup, there was no hope of winning the championship.

It was only when Boss Qiao emerged that the trend of whoever controlled the inside position controlled the world was ended.

He single-handedly changed the entire basketball ecosystem.

But there was only one Jordan. After the Bulls dynasty, the Spurs quickly won the championship with their invincible twin towers.

Then came the Lakers dynasty, which, with their most dominant center Shaquille O'Neal as the core, won the O'Brien Cup for three consecutive years.

Therefore, Masako Araki firmly believes that whoever controls the inside will control the world.

After becoming the head coach, she became obsessed with big men and the team has always had a twin tower configuration.

But this year, Yangquan went a step further and directly formed an unprecedented three towers!

There is no team in the country today that can compete with me in the interior.

The first quarter was like this, so you can imagine how the next game would be.

In the second quarter, Yangquan shut out the opponent again and completely sent the game into garbage time.

Yangquan's iron wall attracts people's attention.

The fans thought that the only team that could break Yangquan’s defense now was the Miracle Generation team.

But Kirisaki Daiichi, who they had high hopes for, did not cause much waves in the quarter-finals.

In this game, Tiandao let all the main players rest on the bench.

He alone led four substitutes to compete with the opponents.

When it comes to the quarterfinals of the national competition, for a game of this intensity, it is best for players to rest for more than 48 hours.

This is the only way to allow the body to get sufficient rest.

There was no visual impact of Yangquan shutting out the opponent, nor was there any easy way of widening the score gap.

Although Tiandao appeared on the court, it was obvious that he was just slacking off. He only scored 5 points at the end of the first half, but he had 15 assists, 8 rebounds, 4 steals and 3 blocks.

Kirisaki led his opponent by 12 points in the first half.

"Save your energy to fight us? Is this kid really only fifteen years old?" Masako Araki naturally brought her team to watch.

The result was nothing to be seen. Kirisaki Daiichi quietly advanced to the semi-finals with a 15-point advantage.

Thinking about her own fighting spirit just now, which led to the team's shutout, Masako Araki blushed a little.

"How come I look more like a child compared to him?"

Chapter 191: Final Four Battle

The game was over, and Kirisaki defeated his opponent without any bloodshed and advanced to the semi-finals.

At this point, the top four teams in the national competition have all been announced.

Tonghuang Academy and Luoshan High School in the upper half.

Kirisaki Daiichi and Yosen High School in the lower half.

They were all civil wars among the Generation of Miracles, which fully met the fans' expectations before the national competition.

The champion of this year's national competition will be born from a team with the Miracle Generation.

This result excited fans in the Tokyo area.

They have two teams that have reached the semi-finals. This year's Tokyo region is undoubtedly the strongest region in the country.

Tiandao doesn't care whether the Tokyo region is the strongest region, he only cares whether he is the one who wins in the end.

"Go back, the game the day after tomorrow won't be easy."

Tiandao left the arena with the bad boys.

He already has a preliminary idea of ​​what tactics to use against Yangquan.

The advantages and disadvantages of such a three-tower team are obvious.

The advantages have been demonstrated in the last game, and the remaining disadvantage is naturally the overall speed problem.

This is something that any team that focuses on the inside cannot avoid.

It can be predicted that in Yangquan's match the day after tomorrow, they will definitely grind out their positions, increase their success rate, reduce the number of rounds in the game, and use defense and hit rate to decide the outcome.

If the game pace is too fast, it will be a huge drain on the three big men in their team.

If others want to go slow, then you have to go fast.

Basketball games are like this, it's all about playing to your strengths and avoiding your weaknesses, using your strengths to attack your opponent's weaknesses.

The next day, Kirisaki First Basketball Club.

The players were all practicing counterattacks and fast breaks under Tiandao's supervision.

Their games are already among the fastest in the country, but against a heavily armored team like Yangquan, they are even faster.

Everyone was very serious and no one dared to slack off.

This proves that Tiandao's control over the team has reached the point where his words can be followed.

Including Hanamiya Makoto, everyone is carefully studying Yangquan's style of play.

The championship is within reach, and at this point, even the bad kids are taking it seriously.

There is no way, even the five generals feel sad.

Teiko's dominance was so strong that players of this era had no chance of winning the championship.

"Any ideas?" Tiandao walked over.

"What can I think? These guys' fighting style is no different from last year. They are still so good at dragging people into positions for hand-to-hand combat." Hua Gongzhen pouted.

Yangquan likes to use his height to bully others.

The centers of the participating teams in the national competition are generally no taller than 1.95 meters. However, Yangquan has three players who are 2 meters tall, which is a huge advantage.

At least their Kirisaki inside player is definitely not able to compete. It is useless to defend from the front because there are three big guys in the penalty area.

"To put it bluntly, if we let them get the ball into the paint, we're done."
