Chapter 226 Goal: Scoring record in a single game
Chapter 226 Target’s single-game scoring record
77:72
Lingnan is in front and Xiangyang is in the back.
With twelve minutes left before the end of the game, Lingnan finally gained a five-point advantage.
This is because the efficiency of Yuzhu is extremely high, otherwise I might not even be able to maintain this five-point advantage.
This immediately stopped Xiangyang, and coach Kitano had to call a timeout.
On the Xiangyang bench, the scene of Uozumi constantly wreaking havoc in the penalty area still appeared in Coach Kitano's mind, which made him frown and not in a good mood.
Even if Xiangyang was double-teamed, he still had nothing to do with Uozumi.
Uozumi is fast and flexible, especially his confrontation ability is so strong that the Shoyang players on the field can hardly hold on to the second blow.
That's all. The key point is that the fish's physical strength is too abundant.
Uozumi's physical reserve also exceeded Coach Kitano's expectations. He scored 18 points in such a short period of time, but he didn't seem to be exhausted. It was obvious that he could continue to maintain it.
"No, even if there are three or four people surrounding him, I can't let Yuzhu step into the penalty area again. If that doesn't work, I'll resort to the fish-killing tactic and bet on his free throw shooting skills."
Coach Kitano made a decision. It was because Uozumi's singles efficiency was too high, reaching over 80%.
As long as Yuzhu enters the restricted area, there is no difference from giving away points.
This is still a case where Xiangyang players feel better, otherwise the score difference will inevitably be wider.
Soon, the timeout ended and players from both sides took the field again.
Xiangyang had the ball, and through simple but smooth cooperation, Fujima passed the ball to Aso Taro, who scored a mid-range shot, narrowing the point difference to three points.
When Reinan attacked, as soon as Uozumi caught the basketball, Taro Aso and Ichito Matsushima, who were nearest, all dropped their opponents and rushed toward Uozumi.
Uozumi enjoyed the treatment of a three-person double team, but he did not pass the ball.
Looking at Hanagata who was two steps away from him, Uozumi suddenly jumped up before the three men surrounded him. By the time Hanagata reacted, the basketball in his hand had already been thrown.
Hanagata was taken aback and quickly turned around to protect the backboard.
Huh~
Unfortunately, the basketball went hollow into the basket, and the point difference between the two sides reopened to five points.
Although Yuzhu's mid-range shooting is only 70+, his shooting position is at the edge of the penalty area. The closer to the basket, the higher his shooting rate. This is common sense.
In addition, it is also related to Uozumi's height and wingspan advantages, coupled with the almost "undefended" relationship of the flower shape, it is not difficult for him to hit the mid-range shot.
"Luck, it must be luck!"
Taro Aso came to a conclusion, and the other Xiangyang players deeply agreed.
During the Autumn National Sports Competition, they often trained with Uozumi, and they knew very well that Uozumi's mid-range shot was not very accurate, it was just better than Akagi and Amu.
They didn't think that Yuzhu could develop a reliable mid-range shot in just over two months. After all, Yuzhu was so powerful and his wrist was relatively stiff. Logically speaking, it would take a lot of effort to practice the mid-range shot well.
Normal people need more energy.
However, in the next round, the fish stayed in the same position and hit another mid-range shot.
This time, everyone in Xiangyang was obviously shaken.
However, they still believe that even if Yuzhu's CIC improves, it won't be that big.
When Uozumi hit the third field goal, everyone in Xiangyang was obviously surprised, and Coach Kitano stood up from his seat.
It's okay to say it once or twice, but it's different three times. The key point is that Yuzhu really dared to make the shot without any hesitation. This means that Yuzhu is full of confidence in his mid-range shot.
Lingnan hit three consecutive mid-range shots, extending the score advantage to 7 points.
"Hua Xing, close the distance and be sure to limit his mid-range shots!"
Under the command of Coach Kitano, Hanagata had to close the distance with Uozumi and even stick to him.
What Hanagata didn't expect was that when he came up, Uozumi did not continue to make mid-range shots, but chose to hit hard.
At this moment, Hanagata felt too uncomfortable, and was knocked away by Uozumi. Before the three-man double team could form, Uozumi had already rushed into the penalty area and scored a layup.
Hanagata put her hands on her hips and panted heavily, her heart filled with a sense of powerlessness.
How to defend Yuzhu has become a difficult problem.
Keep the distance, and Yuzhu will teach him a lesson with a mid-range shot; but if you get close, there won't be enough buffer space, and with his ability to fight, Yuzhu will be knocked away again.
In front of Yuzhu, he felt that his defense was just in vain.
What can he do? He is also desperate!
"I'm really not suitable for the center position!"
After being beaten up by Uozumi, Hanagata becomes more and more doubtful about life.
At the same time, he became even more afraid of Uozumi, which made him hate the center position even more.
He was in the same grade as Yuzhu, and if he continued like this, he felt that his confidence would collapse sooner or later.
The center position should be filled by more capable players. At least Hanagata feels that he is not suitable.
The current Uozumi is just like Mu Shenyi in the drama years. Unless someone can withstand his impact, a team like Xiangyang with a small and fast team can usually only have three or four players.
Of course, the more people who double-team, the greater the impact on the efficiency of the fish residence will be.
Hanagata was very helpless. As a last resort, he even started to implement the fish-cutting tactic. Even though he knew that the fish-cutting tactic was of little use to Yuzumi, he still had a sense of luck.
Coach Kitano didn't stop him. He also wanted to try in case Uozumi's free throws were not accurate.
Unfortunately, Uozumi made four free throws, crushing Coach Kitano's luck.
At this time, Yuzhu's score had reached 52 points.
Coach Kitano sat on the bench dejectedly. The former Uozumi was fine, at least he still had the shortcomings of an average mid-range shot and inaccurate free throws.
It's fine now, these two defects are gone.
Faced with such a fishy situation, Coach Kitano really couldn't think of a way.
In desperation, coach Kitano chose to make a substitution.
He chose to replace Kimura Yuya and replace Shoyo team's original starting center Junichiro Nozawa.
Compared with the prefectural competition, Nozawa Junichiro's height and weight have increased slightly. He currently weighs 192 centimeters and 96 kilograms. He is also a high-quality center in Kanagawa Prefecture.
However, Junichiro Nozawa is not without his flaws. Not to mention his single technique, his key steps are slow, and he is prone to being knocked around.
The most important thing is that Junichiro Nozawa is not suitable for run-and-gun tactics.
With Junichiro Nozawa coming on the field, it means that the threat of the Shoyo team's run-and-gun tactics has been greatly reduced.
As a result, the lineup of Shoyo team became Nozawa Junichiro, Hanagata, Aso Taro, Matsushima Kazuto and Fujima Kenji.
For a time, the average height of the Xiangyang team increased again.
It's a pity that Junichiro Nozawa is destined to be unable to restrict Uozumi.
Not to mention the current Uozumi, even the Uozumi during the prefectural competition could easily defeat Junichiro Nozawa.
To Uozumi, Junichiro Nozawa was no different from a wooden pile in his eyes.
Seeing Junichiro Nozawa come on the field, Uozumi knew that he was on the safe side. If nothing else happened, he felt that he was likely to break the single-game scoring record.
Chapter completed!
