Slam Dunk: I'm the Glasses Brother
Chapter 20 Takeishi Wins the Championship
It was another weekend, and Muguro and Akagi came to the gymnasium to watch the final of the county competition. Just like the original, the two sides in the final were Takeishi and Yokota.
From the beginning, the game was very close. Takeishi Junior High School's two outside shooters, Katsumi and Mitsui, fired frequently. But Yokota Junior High School was no pushover. Araki and Murasame also took advantage of Takeishi players in the same position. They led their team to keep the score close. Soon the first half ended, with Takeishi leading by 30 points at 25:5.
"Mitsui and Katsumi were amazing. They scored 22 points and made 6 three-pointers between them. But Yokota Junior High School wasn't bad either. That Murasame also scored 10 points, Mugure. Which team do you think will win the championship, Takeishi?"
"It's hard to say." It was indeed difficult for Mugure to judge. From the original story, Takeishi Junior High School had a difficult game, but in reality, Takeishi played very calmly. Not only did Mitsui score easily in front of Hasegawa, but Katsumi also performed well. Did the experience of Kitamura improve the strength of Takeishi Junior High School players? Maybe he had changed history invisibly? Then would Mitsui Shou still come to Shohoku? Mugure fell into thought.
At the beginning of the second half, Mitsui and Katsumi continued their good form and were still in the lead, while Yokota Junior High School's offense was at a bottleneck. As a result, by the fifth minute, Takeishi was already leading by 42 points, 31:11, and Yokomura Junior High School called a timeout.
After the timeout, Yokota, in order to catch up with the score, did not hesitate to use fouls to disrupt Takeishi's offensive rhythm. At this time, an accident happened.
During a breakthrough layup, Katsumi was fouled by Murasame fiercely and was knocked to the ground in the air. Although Murasame was called for a technical foul, Katsumi was unable to continue the game, and Takeishi's two outside shooters were broken. The defensive pressure of Yokota Junior High School suddenly decreased, and Yokota Junior High School began to double or even triple-team Mitsui. Although Mitsui could still score, this way of scoring was very physically demanding, and vice versa. Because of Katsumi's departure, Yokota also saw the hope of overtaking. The offense also improved. Murasame's inside attack caused Horita's fourth foul, and Horita did not dare to make any big moves. Yokota Junior High School gradually caught up with the score, and 30 seconds before the end of the game. 52:52, the two sides reached a tie. Araki faced Saito and missed the mid-range shot. But Murasame grabbed the offensive rebound, hit Horita hard in the inside, and jumped up to shoot. Horita jumped up to block despite his four fouls.
"Bang!" Horita hit the ball, but it also hit Murasame's arm. Horita was sent off for five fouls.
Murasame made the first free throw, but missed the second one. During the rebound, Kakumoto hit the ball out of bounds, and Saito failed to catch it, so the ball went out of bounds. The coach of Takeishi Junior High School called a timeout.
Okay, no more shooting! Just pass the ball until the end of the game." The coach of Yokota Junior High School gave the players their final order.
There are only 12 seconds left, Yokota Junior High School is still leading by one point, and the ball is still in Yokota's hands. The outcome is almost decided! Coach Anzai! "Coach Tanaoka said to Coach Anzai who was sitting next to him.
"We haven't lost yet. We still have time. We can definitely turn defeat into victory!" Facing the frustrated players, Mitsui Shou loudly encouraged, "As long as I, the genius Mitsui, am here, we will definitely win!"
"Haha, you haven't given up yet! Coach Anzai, it's him!" Coach Tian Gang laughed and pointed at Mitsui and said to Coach Anzai, "That kid is bragging again, but his basketball talent is real! Mitsui Shou, we have decided on Ryonan! Coach Anzai, you are not going to snatch him from me, are you?"
Coach Anxi calmly took a sip of tea and said, "No, we are a public school."
Hehehe, three years, no, just two years. As long as Mitsui, Akagi and Murasaki come to our Ryonan, the era of Ryonan will come, Coach Tanaka thought secretly.
Beep! The timeout was over. With Mitsui's encouragement, Takeishi Junior High School regained their confidence and stepped onto the court again, but Mitsui was feeling uneasy.
"Although I said that at the time, I myself didn't have the confidence!" Mitsui tried hard to cheer himself up and not let himself lose his desire for victory.
The players of Takeishi Junior High School all kept their eyes on their opponents, waiting for Yokota Junior High School to serve. Under the tight defense of Takeishi Junior High School, No. 8, who was serving from the center line, couldn't help but lob the ball to Hasegawa outside the three-point line.
The moment Hasegawa caught the ball, Mitsui Shou yelled and took the basketball out of Hasegawa's hand in one step. The ball slowly bounced out of bounds following the direction of the shot. Mitsui Shou chased after the basketball desperately, but unfortunately he did not get the basketball back. Instead, he ran towards the guest seats with only a few seconds left.
"It looks like Takeishi Junior High School is finished. Let's go, Murasakibara." Akagi looked at the scoreboard. There was little time left and the ball was still in Yokota's hands. Takeishi Junior High School was bound to lose, so he spoke up.
"That may not be the case. Let's go later. A few seconds won't matter." It seemed that a historical scene was about to be staged. Murasakibara stared at the audience intently.
"Damn it, are we going to lose just like that?" Mitsui, who was kneeling on the ground, groaned in frustration and annoyance. He raised his head and saw the audience starting to leave. He immediately lowered his head in pain and said, "Sure enough, everyone thinks we lost! Damn it, it's no use anymore!"
"Don't give up hope until the last moment! Once you give up, the game will end early!"
When Mitsui was feeling remorseful, a kind old man appeared in his eyes. The old man's words were like a enlightenment, which sublimated Mitsui's originally depressed heart and injected the dawn of victory and endless motivation.
Mitsui stood up again, with infinite confidence, seized the opportunity when Yokota kicked off, snatched the basketball from Yokota Araki's hands, and rushed towards Yokota's hinterland.
The sudden change at this moment made the whole audience hold their breath. Akagi and Murasakibara were also watching Mitsui's final performance intently.
"Stop him! Stop Mitsui, don't let him shoot!" Yokota's coach was screaming madly on the sidelines.
But at this moment Mitsui was unstoppable. He quickly moved to the three-point line, and despite the obstruction of several people, he jumped lightly, held the basketball with both hands, and shook his right wrist lightly. The basketball drew a beautiful arc and flew towards the basket.
3 seconds, 2 seconds, 1 second! Everyone's eyes were all fixed on this last ball. Swish! It was a clear sound of the ball going into the net. Along with this sound, the whole audience cheered loudly. The ball went in! Mitsui's shot was the winning shot! Takeishi won the championship!
