Slam Dunk: I'm the Glasses Brother

Zebei wiped the sweat from his forehead, exhaled, and said to Sendoh who passed by him when he returned to defense: "Interesting, you have indeed improved a lot, but you are still no match for me."

However, Xiandao completely ignored his provocation, didn't even give him a glance, and retreated.

Oh my god! Zebei was immediately annoyed. As soon as he passed half court, he raised his hand to ask for the ball, determined to get back at the opponent.

The moment Zebei received the ball, Ikegami (replacing Nango before Sendoh took the free throw) and Miyagi surrounded him and double-teamed him!

Tsk! Are two people enough?

Zebei thought with a little disdain. This was not his arrogance at all. With his ability, Ryonan could only defend against him with the double defense of Sendō and Ikegami. As for the combination of Ikegami and Miyagi, Zebei really didn't take the opponent seriously.

However, what the world lacks the most is "surprises". Ryonan was clearly well prepared this time. Defensive expert Ikegami was in the front, almost stalking and stalking, while Miyagi used his flexible steps to fill in the gaps for Ikegami. Zebei made a series of fake moves, and his hand movements were half-real and half-fake, which was very confusing, but he was unable to break through the double team in the first time.

However, Zebei is Zebei after all. The double defense of Chi Shang and Miyagi still failed to stop him. He seized a gap and squeezed out, but...

"Be careful!" Shenjin was a bystander and noticed something was wrong the moment Zebei broke through, but it was too late.

Zebei had just rushed out of the encirclement of Chi Shang and Miyagi. He relaxed for a moment, and there was a gap in his ball protection. He felt his hand lighten, and a blue figure flashed before his eyes. The basketball in his hand had been snatched away by Sendoh! "

Even though Sanno was well-trained and retreated very quickly, Ryonan still failed to make a fast break. However, facing Zebei again, Sendoh faked a breakthrough and shot a jump shot with a sudden stop and fade away, and succeeded in singles against Zebei again.

55:62, Ryonan narrowed the score to 7 points!

Facing the rising Ryonan, Sanno did not panic. Under the control of Fukatsu, their rhythm was not disturbed by Ryonan's sudden force. Zebei made a counter-run to shake off Ikegami and Miyagi who had not yet double-teamed him. After receiving the pass from Fukatsu, he faced Sendoh again and once again used continuous fake moves to break through Sendoh and scored a layup; 55:64

However, Sendoh was not affected by him at all. He turned around and ran to the low post, then suddenly turned around and stepped back to make a jump shot.

Zebei forced his way past Sendoh, carried him into the paint, and then attempted a high layup in the three-second zone, but Sendoh still failed to block him;

But Sendoh immediately responded by ignoring Zebei and shooting a three-pointer;

……

That was the first time in such a long time that Xiandao successfully broke through Zebei's defense on his own. However, once he broke through this barrier, the huge sense of oppression that Zebei had brought to him before disappeared in an instant!

So he was successful in the next few rounds.

This is probably how things are in the world. Things that seem extremely difficult, when you really break through, are just a layer of window paper.

In terms of strength, Zebei is still obviously stronger than Sendao, but this gap is not enough to produce an overwhelming advantage, so now, Sendao, who is giving his all, is playing better and better. Although Zebei still has a slight advantage, Sendao has reversed his previous downward trend and managed to draw with the opponent despite being slightly at a disadvantage!

Ryonan's double-teaming tactics on Zebei achieved good results. Although the layered defense of Ikegami and Miyagi could only cause a little trouble for Zebei, Zebei still could not find a way to completely defeat the opponent's defense. Coupled with Sendoh's elusive defense, Zebei's offensive efficiency suddenly dropped sharply.

But on the other hand, whether because of their self-confidence or some other unknown reasons, Sanno did not deploy strong assistance defense against Sendoh. Since they began to turn the disadvantage around, Sendoh and Zebei have basically been in a situation of mutual explosion. Neither of them has a better way to deal with the other, so Sendoh's scoring efficiency has reversed Zebei and led Ryonan to close the score step by step.

With 14 minutes and 29 seconds left in the second half, Sendoh suddenly pulled to the baseline and hit a three-pointer. The score on the field became 68:70, and Ryonan narrowed the score to only 2 points!

In the next defense, Yuzumi committed a severe foul, almost pressing Nobe to the ground, and then raised his hands.

Nobe free throw.

Goro Domoto finally stood up and walked towards the recording table.

"Beep~~~ Sanwang, requesting a timeout!"

"Finally..." Akagi said with emotion, "After playing the game till now, Zebei finally can't suppress Sendoh anymore."

"Yes!" Mitsui also agreed, "This is a good opportunity for Ryonan to catch up!"

"It's hard to say," Mu Mu was a little worried. According to his estimation, Sanwang's methods were obviously not limited to this, and Domoto Goro was not the kind of coach who would watch the situation gradually get out of control and do nothing. Now that he requested a timeout, he probably wanted to make some arrangements...

His gaze turned to Shigeichi Takaoka who was cheering up the players: Does Ryonan still have the strength to deal with Sannoh's back-up plan?

Sanwang has changed players.

No. 15 Mikio Kawata came on the court, replacing No. 5 Masahiro Nobe.

"Sure enough, they are starting to dig into the inner line." Mu Mu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood Domoto Goro's plan...

The timeout ended, Kawada made two free throws. 68:72,

Sendoh once again singled out Zebei. With the help of Ikegami's screen, he successfully got rid of Zebei for a short time. However, this time Ohkawada caught up in time and interfered with Sendoh's shot. This time the shot missed, and Ohkawada firmly blocked the post.

"This kid is really strong," Yu Zhu secretly complained. With the help of Xiao Hetian's positioning, Da Hetian came back to grab the backcourt rebound. "Well, the positioning was very good this time." After grabbing the rebound, Hetian did not forget to encourage his younger brother.

Sannoh attacked, and when Ikegami and Miyagi habitually met Zebei again, the basketball in Fukatsu's hand turned in a different direction and passed to Ohkawada. Because of Nango's departure, Ryonan's inside line was only Yuzhu to deal with Ohkawada and Ohkawada. Ohkawada shot, Yuzhu followed to block, but Ohkawada shook his wrist and changed the shot to pass, and the ball went to Kokawada under the basket, and Kokawada shot and made it 68:74

"Oh no! Sanno is going to strengthen its inside attack. It's not enough to rely on Yuzhu alone. Nango, you go in and replace Godai." Tanaoka immediately made a substitution.

Ryonan attacks, Miyagi receives the ball from the baseline, and Fukatsu is already standing in front of him

"His center of gravity is so low, is this the strength of a national champion defender?" Miyagi kept changing directions, but he couldn't get rid of Fukatsu's defense. Little did he know, Fukatsu was also complaining, "It's really hard to defend against a short and agile defender, my legs and my waist."

"Snap!" Just as Miyagi was dribbling the ball and trying to get rid of Fukatsu, Matsumoto suddenly rushed out from the side and reached out to stop Miyagi's dribbling.

After a series of fake moves, a start, and a crossover step, Matsumoto easily passed Ikegami and made a shot from outside the three-second zone. 68:76

"It's getting hard to play against Ryonan! Sannoh has started to show its strength with many players, and it's hard to find the center of gravity for defense." Mumu sighed.

What Mumu said was right. The reason why Ryonan was able to catch up with the score during this period was not so much because of Sendoh's sudden explosion, but because of Ryonan's defensive strategy. Zebei played too independently, so Ryonan used Ikegami and Miyagi to double-team him, and with Sendoh's help defense, even if Zebei was strong, he couldn't withstand the siege of three people.

However, it is not difficult for Sanno to crack such a tactic. They just need to replace someone to score. Although Fukatsu has a height advantage over Miyagi and has good scoring ability, Domoto considered that Fukatsu still controls the offensive and defensive rhythm of the team. If it is not necessary, it is better not to let him take on two roles. Therefore, the focus of the offense was shifted to Matsumoto and Kogata.

Matsumoto's characteristic is that he is a typical "strong in offense but weak in defense". If we compare him with Mitsui, Mitsui is better than Matsumoto in terms of perimeter defense. At the same time, Matsumoto does not have the three-point shooting rate of Mitsui. However, Matsumoto's ability to attack with the ball, especially his ability to attack and create opportunities, is definitely the strength of the ace of the national top eight team. Although Ikegami has good defensive ability, he is good at dealing with pure shooters like A Shen. For attackers with excellent skills, Ikegami's defensive ability is still a little worse. As for Koheda, with a height of 210cm and a weight of 130kg, even if he moves slowly, he can't play a big role in defense, but with Kawada's help defense in the interior, he only needs to protect the rebounds. On the offensive end, he uses his tonnage to attack like a bulldozer. Although Nanxiang is talented, he is not Sakuragi Hanamichi, and he is still a little powerless to deal with Koheda.

On the contrary, Ryonan's offense mainly relies on the "triangle" of Sendoh, Uozumi and Miyagi. However, whether it is Uozumi or Miyagi, their firepower must rely on Sendoh's dispatch and connection to be truly exerted. But now they are restricted by Kawata and Fukatsu respectively, and the role they can play is even more discounted.

As a result, the burden of scoring for Ryonan fell more on Sendoh's shoulders. However, even if Sendoh was able to compete with Zebei when he exploded, he was still at a disadvantage. His success rate was always limited, especially at this point in the game, Sanwang no longer acted like the "national overlord" and decisively sent out Fukatsu and Matsumoto to implement layers of defense for Sendoh behind Zebei, which further restricted Sendoh's performance and caused Ryonan's offensive efficiency to drop sharply.

On the other hand, under Fukatsu's command, Ryonan could not withstand Sanno's offensive. This was because Zebei alone had already attracted all the attention of Ikegami and Miyagi, and Sendoh had to distract himself from time to time to assist in defense. Now, when Fukatsu began to give the ball to Matsumoto more often, Ryonan's defensive tactics became ineffective.

In the following games, although Ryonan did not give up and the whole team fought hard, and Sendoh tried his best to do 120% of his strength, he still could not turn the situation around and could only watch the gap between the two sides widen and widen...

The final score was fixed at 72:86.
