Slam Dunk: I'm the Glasses Brother

Chapter 289: Xiangbei vs. Aiwa: Entering the Finals

As the referee called the penalty, Zhu Xing loosened his grip on the basket and landed gently. There was a bright red mark on his forearm, which was the mark of being hit hard by the opponent. Zhu Xing was not affected by the foul at all and made the free throw 97:84

"Everybody guard this ball," Moroboshi reminded his teammates loudly. This time, Moroboshi successfully challenged two masters, Mitsui and Akagi, which greatly boosted the morale of Aiwa Academy. Katsumi's three-pointer was blocked by Mizuwa, and Aiwa counterattacked, and Mizuwa hit a three-pointer, 97:87, and the score difference returned to ten points!

"Very good, keep it up everyone" Zhu Xing continued to encourage his teammates

"Come on, Aiwa Academy!" The Aiwa fans, who had been a little quiet just now, became active again because of Aiwa's continuous scoring.

Xiangbei's shot missed and Mori Shigehiro grabbed the rebound.

"Good job, A-Kuan, let's score another goal." Zhu Xing got the ball and said slowly while dribbling, as if they were the ones leading at the moment.

"Everyone, guard this ball well." Mitsui focused on Moroboshi. At this time, Mori Shigehiro suddenly left the basket.

"Pick and roll?" Mitsui and Akagi thought at the same time. Mitsui took a step back to prevent Moroboshi from breaking through. However, Moroboshi used Mori Shigehiro's screen to shake off Mitsui and shoot directly.

"Don't even think about it!" Akagi rushed over and firmly blocked Zhuxing's shooting angle

"Well guarded"

"Good defense? You've been fooled." A smile bloomed from the corner of Zhu Xing's mouth. Zhu Xing changed his shot to pass, and the ball was passed to Mori Shigehiro who came down after completing the pick-and-roll!

"Opportunity!" Ishii was overjoyed. Akagi was attracted to the outside line, which meant that there was no space under the basket. It was almost certain that Mori Shigehiro would score. This would increase the score difference to 8 points, and there was still a chance of a comeback.

After Mori Shigehiro got the ball, he dribbled straight to the basket. However, at the moment he dribbled, there was a "bang!" sound, and it seemed that he hit something and flew out. "Whistle!" The whistle sounded, "White No. 15, foul!"

"Good job, Nakajima!" It turned out that at the moment when Mori Shigehiro got the ball, Nakajima bravely stepped forward and stood in position. Although he was knocked away by Mori Shigehiro, he successfully caused Mori Shigehiro to commit a foul! Mori Shigehiro was stunned for a moment and reluctantly handed the ball back to the referee.

"Ouch!" Ishii slapped his thigh in frustration. The referee's decision was very accurate.

"Are you okay, Nakajima?" Akagi pulled up his inside partner.

"Captain, this guy is so powerful. It feels like a truck is coming towards me. Fortunately, I was prepared." Nakajima adjusted his breathing.

"You did a great job." Akagi patted Nakajima's shoulder with satisfaction, "Okay, let's attack."

"Don't mind, we'll defend this ball." Zhu Xing adjusted his mood and encouraged his teammates again

"Leave this ball to me" Mitsui gestured for the ball from the outside

"Come on, Mitsui!" Zhuxing is ready

"Okay, here I come." Mitsui suddenly accelerated after getting the ball and rushed towards Zhu Xing. Zhu Xing's reaction was not slow either, and he quickly moved sideways to block Mitsui's breakthrough. But Mitsui suddenly stopped and turned, rushing to the other side.

"Humph, you can't get rid of me like this." Zhu Xing quickly pulled back his body and turned in another direction. But Mitsui did not rush to the basket as Zhu Xing thought. When Zhu Xing turned to the basket to block him, he stopped again and dribbled crosswise.

"What, three-point shot?" Moroboshi looked at Mitsui who jumped high in front of him, and his eyes finally fell on the opponent's feet, outside the three-point line.

"Don't even think about shooting a three-pointer!" Shui He suddenly rushed over from the side.

"Good defense, but when you pounce, there's no one to defend you." Mitsui smiled calmly and changed the shot to pass the ball to Katsumi.

"I expected it." Just after Katsumi got the ball, Tetsuki had already made up for it. This showed the excellent rotation defense awareness of Aiwa Academy. However, although Aiwa's defense awareness was excellent, Xiangbei's offensive rotation was also excellent. Although Aiwa frequently made up for the position, the speed of the people could not keep up with the speed of the ball. Katsumi did not choose to attack, but passed the ball again. This time, the ball fell into Nakajima's hands, and Nakajima was unguarded! After Nakajima got the ball, he shot directly without hesitation! Hit! 99:87. Xiangbei widened the score again!

"Keep an eye on your respective players. Akagi, don't leave the basket easily. Nakajima, if Ai and the inside players go out for a pick and roll, you are responsible for following them. Katsumi, Yuuki, if you are picked and rolled, switch defense immediately," Mugure shouted from the sidelines.

"I can't lose!" After getting the ball, Zhu Xing used Tetsuki's pick-and-roll to get through Mitsui's defense, and then turned around and broke through Nakajima and went straight to the basket. The captain of Xiangbei, Akagi Takenori, was guarding the basket.

Akagi Takenori's eyes also burst out with a strong desire for confrontation. "This time, you can't score again." Akagi was betting on his dignity as a center forward, so his full-strength attack was very domineering, and he directly slapped the basketball in Zhuxing's hand away!

"Snapped."

"What?" Moroboshi was knocked on his back by Akagi Takenori's strange strength, and the basketball flew to who knows where. Then he felt that he was lying on his back, with his back first making intimate contact with the floor.

Was it a foul? No, the referee did not blow the whistle. Although Akagi's block looked fierce, there was no physical contact with Moroboshi. It was a clean defense.

"There is still a chance." The ball flew into Shui He's hands on the outside, and Shui He made a three-pointer directly!

"You wish!" Mitsui suddenly appeared and slapped the ball away. The ball was taken by Yueyue and Xiangbei launched a counterattack.

"Hurry back to defense!" Ishii shouted anxiously from the sidelines

The ball was in Mitsui's hands, and Mitsui took a leap with the ball, passed Moroboshi's defense and came to the basket, kicked off the ground with both feet and jumped high, holding the ball with both hands and rising to the basket. Mori Shigehiro jumped up at the same time, and when he collided with Mitsui, he stretched out his long arms, pressed hard on the opponent's right arm, and pulled down hard.

"Beep!" The referee's whistle sounded at the right time.

Mitsui's body seemed to be frozen in the air. He grabbed the ball with his left hand and moved it to the side, avoiding the opponent's block and flicking it upwards. The ball bounced on the basket a few times and fell into the net.

"Red No. 15, foul, two points valid, one free throw!" the referee announced loudly.

"Yes!" After landing, Mitsui clenched his fist and waved it vigorously. Mitsui made the free throw steadily, 102:87, with 2 minutes and 42 seconds left.

"Shohoku requests a substitution, No. 4 off, No. 8 on." Shohoku made a substitution, replacing Akagi with Norio Horita.

"If Akagi leaves, then isn't Hiro invincible in the interior? We still have a chance," Moroboshi thought. Not only did he think so, Ai and the other players, including Coach Ishii, thought so too. In the middle of the court, Ai and the academy attacked. Suzuki arrived at the Shohoku half, and without hesitation, he passed the ball to Mori Shigehiro in the interior. Mori Shigehiro received the ball, and then turned around and played with his back, easily carrying Horita on his back.

"This guy is so strong." In fact, Tokuo Horita is also a strong player in Xiangbei, second only to Akagi and Sakuragi, but Mori Shigehiro pushed him back a few steps, giving up the best attack position. Then, Mori Shigehiro leaned his body and turned again, and a clever hook shot hit the basket. 102:89

In this attack by Xiangbei, "Akagi is off the court, and the main attacking point on the court must be Mitsui," Moroboshi judged. Sure enough, after Yue Tu brought the ball to the front court, he immediately gave the ball to Mitsui. Moroboshi and Suzuki immediately double-teamed him. Moroboshi defended Mitsui's breakthrough, while Suzuki defended Mitsui's shot. Seeing this, Mitsui passed the ball back to Yue Tu. Yue Tu had just made a three-pointer, and Aiwa Academy did not dare to relax its defense against him. Suzuki immediately returned to defense. Yue Tu made a fake shot to ignite Suzuki and broke into the inside. Mizuwa made up for the defense, and Yue Tu passed the ball to Katsumi. Tetsuki had already rushed to defend. Katsumi took the opportunity to pass the ball to Nakajima in the inside. Nakajima shot, but Mori Shigehiro had already rushed over. Under the interference of Mori Shigehiro, Nakajima missed the shot this time, but due to Mori Shigehiro's help defense, Aiwa was in the basket, and the rebound was taken by Horita.

"Don't even think about scoring!" Mori Shigehiro rushed over.

"It's really hard to score in front of you, but someone will score. Next, Mitsui!" Horita passed the ball to the bottom corner. I don't know when Mitsui has already moved to the bottom corner and there is no one guarding him.

Mitsui made a three-point shot! The ball drew a beautiful arc and hit the net! 105:89

"Good pass, Deman." "Of course, don't forget that we have been teammates for 6 years." The two high-fived

"It seems the game is over." Ishii stood up helplessly and walked towards the referee's seat. There were still 2 minutes and 05 seconds left in the game. 16 points was already difficult to catch up. Ishii replaced the substitutes and surrendered. Coach Anzai also made substitutions. Mitsui left the court and Hasegawa came on. The substitutes of both sides played the remaining 2 minutes.

"Ding, the game is over, 112:97, Xiangbei wins"
