Kuroko: I had already won the championship before the miracle happened.

During the regular handshake session after the game, it could be clearly felt from Teiko Junior High School that all the players on the other side had a sense of relief and their expressions were much more relaxed.

Only when facing Shigure Akito and Nijimura Shuzou did everyone look very unhappy.

……

After the game, on the way back to school.

After two rounds of competition, the seniors who were selected in the regular season looked very calm, but the freshmen had strange expressions on their faces, not at all like the excitement they had after winning the previous game.

Especially in the second half today, Haizaki Shogo played at the same time as Nijimura Shuzo and Shigure Akito.

"Tsk!"

"too weak!"

hateful!

After entering the field, there was absolutely no room for him to perform. After being beaten by those two monsters, his opponent was like a piece of wood. As a result, even though he had clearly won, he didn't feel anything at all.

aside.

Aomine Daiki, for once, didn't argue with Haizaki and nodded, saying, "I had that feeling during the first round, but... as for Hiraishi Junior High, I was actually quite excited when they won in the end..."

"strangeness……"

Qingfeng clapped the ball in his hands and muttered to himself.

Midorima glanced at Aomine and said, "The difference lies in the players' pride. Although the scores of the two games were similar, this Xingrong team is far behind Heishi Middle School."

Hear the words.

Murasakibara Atsushi frowned slightly.

Self-esteem...

Green Boy...

Did you hear what Senior Yinchen said to you?

Murasakibara, who didn't care much about such things, suddenly felt embarrassed.

the other side.

Akashi Seijuro's gaze fell on the two seniors, Shigure Akito and Nijimura Shuzo, and he seemed to want to say something but hesitated. Midorima noticed his condition and gave him a questioning look.

But in the end, Akashi just shook his head slightly.

As to why the two seniors were so unaffected and could attack with all their strength even when facing such a weak opponent, and compared to the cold Captain Nijimura, Senior Shigure's excitement and enjoyment were not concealed at all.

Although he didn't understand it yet, Akashi felt that the strongest players in junior high school at the moment, in addition to their physical abilities and skills, also had fundamental differences in mental attributes between these first-year players and the two seniors.

this problem……

Let's just use it as a research topic for the strongest ones at the top.

Noticing the strange atmosphere among the first-years, Nijimura Shuzo remained silent, while Shigure Akito spoke in a comforting tone, "This is only the first and second rounds..."

"We are the strongest team in the country. It's hard to find a rival in the Tokyo district."

"If you want to face stronger opponents, then after the qualifiers, the national competition may give you a satisfactory result!"

"From what I know, there are at least five strong opponents."

"Of course, it's for you~"

"But then again..."

"What are you guys depressed about?"

"I saw you guys had a lot of fun playing back and forth in the first half, didn't you?"

Qingfeng: There are five?

Akashi: As expected, Senior is very clear in his mind that the opponent is weak.

Midorima: What do you mean... give and take...

Haizaki: What do you mean by 'to you'? Who are you looking down on?! I can win against anyone except you two monsters!

Murasakihara: Self-esteem...

……

After the second round, just as Shigure Akito said, Teiko had no rivals in the Tokyo area.

For example, the 'Ten Schools Tournament' after the All-China Junior High School last year was a regional competition in the Tokyo area. In participating in such a competition, Teiko had his own restrictions on sticking to the rules because of his overwhelming strength.

For example, last year all first-year students competed.

and so……

The third round...

135: 40.

Round 4…

147: 43.

In the subsequent games, Teiko made exaggerated progress!

并且一直延续了上半场1名首发带4替补，打出差不多60比30的分差，下半场4首发带1替补再打个70多比个位数的模式。

then……

Pushed all the way to the Tokyo zone round-robin finals.

The end of April.

The last one.

Teiko Junior High School vs. Kamisaki Junior High School.

We could have had some competition, at least in the first half against Teiko, an opponent who could have been a little bit competitive appeared.

but……

It's 'originally'.

If the '1' who led 4 players in the first half of this match wasn't Shigure Akito, Kamisaki Junior High School would probably have been able to compete with Teiko in the first half.

Halfway through the first quarter.

The score on the field is 20:10.

With the core idea that the first half would be dominated by the first graders, Shigure Akito did not set up a 'super wide range defense' at the free throw line in this game.

He replaced Murasakibara Atsushi on the court.

Directly from the back line to the center.

then……

Under the coach's arrangement, he retreated under the basket and guarded the restricted area for the younger players.

therefore.

Kamizaki Junior High School, which is quite strong, scored the most points against Teiko in the first five minutes of the game against Teiko in the entire Tokyo area.

10 points.

at this time.

Kamizaki Junior High School passed the ball to the point guard, who then brought the ball to midfield.

Kamisaki's point guard is very clear about the current situation. Even if the factor of Shigure Akito under the basket is excluded, the first-year students of Teiko Junior High School are more difficult to deal with than imagined.

As the team's point guard and the organizer of the offense, Uezaki, who won all the way and walked in front of Teiko, analyzed the situation with strong psychological quality.

To ensure success, they must get closer to the basket.

So……

The problem is Shigure Akito.

To get him out of the restricted area, even if the opponent has a very terrifying help defense ability, it is enough to deal with it as long as the pick-and-roll is used well and the distance is controlled.

First of all, the position where the ball is lobbed cannot be the free throw line at the core of the half court, because that is the position where the opponent is best at radiating defense.

The best way is to lift it to the bottom corner.

Kamisaki's point guard quickly thought of the most suitable attacking method for his team at the moment.

Then he waved to the inside, asking the center to pull out for a screen.

After the screen, point guard Kamizaki ran around the center, leading the defender following him to the center's pick-and-roll area, allowing him to break free from the opponent's entanglement in a short time.

At the same time, he noticed that Shigure Akito, who followed the center forward, was distracted by him. So, the next second, he passed the ball to the only remaining power forward in the penalty area...

For a while...

The matchup in the paint is...

Uezaki point guard: “!?”

Why is it still Shi Yu Qiu Ren?

I had clearly pulled him out, and I had paid attention to his position and used my body to block him, but... when did he even get back to defend?!

Inside line.

Power forward of Kamizaki Junior High School vs. Akito Shigure.

Just now, with the "Green Light" turned on and the "Godai Tomokazu·Full Acceleration", Shigure Akito completed the transition from screen defense in the bottom corner to defense in the penalty area in an instant.

"Don't even think about it."

"They say they are guarding the restricted area for the younger generation, and they are guarding the restricted area."

At this time, a 1v1 situation was formed in the penalty area, but the opponent of the great striker Kamizaki was in the Tokyo district, which made everyone feel scared when they saw it.

but……

Go to the finals.

Kamizaki Junior High School has also been winning all the way without losing.

In terms of mentality, it is definitely different from other teams.

For example, at this moment, power forward Kamizaki holds the ball with his back to the basket and can "boldly" use his back to test the opponent's defense.

He could feel that, as a player's instinct, his body was constantly sending out warnings of danger. Behind him was an extremely dangerous opponent, which he was aware of both physically and mentally.

But even though I know in my heart...

He still couldn't help but look at the figure behind him.

5 number.

About 185 cm.

As a second-year player, his face still had a hint of immaturity, but even so, just one glance at him made him feel like he was being stared at by a wild beast!

but.

Even if the feeling is particularly strong.

He wants to try it too!

If they don't create a gap in the penalty area, Kamizaki Junior High School will have no chance of winning just by relying on the outside shots!

188 cm.

The 3 centimeters in height is my only advantage.

Use confrontation to drag the opponent to the ground and don't let him jump up!

Bang~!

Power forward Kamizaki plays with his back to the basket!

Unexpectedly, the force behind him was not that strong, because he could clearly sense that the opponent was forced to retreat half a step by his back attack!

There is a gleam in the eyes of power forward Uezaki!

There is a play!
