Midorima Shintaro's shot from the edge of the three-point line was extremely fast. Almost in an instant, he had raised the basketball above his head and shot it out with his hand.
However, the moment the basketball left his fingertips, a big hand suddenly appeared directly above the basketball.
"You can't break through my defense with just a shot like this! Midorima!"
Snap!
A solid block shot the basketball down from the sky.
time.
The whole audience was shocked.
Especially the players on Xiude's side had their eyes widened with disbelief written all over their faces.
"How is that possible?"
"That guy can actually block Midorima."
Although the people on Xiudoku's side were also shocked when Akashi came on the court because of his height, there was always a question mark in their minds as to whether they could stop Midorima.
The reason is simple.
That is, if you want to defend Midorima, height alone is not enough.
If height alone can stop this guy, then it would be to underestimate the 'Generation of Miracles'.
Although Midorima Shintaro is best at three-pointers, whether it is dribbling breakthroughs, interior defense, or even rebounding... this guy is very proficient in it and can be called an all-rounder.
To deal with such a monster, a simple fool is not enough.
Basic skills, reflexes, and agility are all indispensable, and the more important thing is jumping ability. Akashi Asuka is currently 205cm tall, which seems very tall, but in fact he is only 10cm taller than Midorima Shintaro.
.
If based on the jumping ability in junior high school, even if Akashi Asuka has such a height, he may not be able to block the current Shintaro Midorima.
"It seems like this guy is no ordinary stupid guy!"
"Of course, how could that guy be such a stupid guy?" Takao Kazunari tugged at the corner of his mouth, a few drops of cold sweat slid down his cheeks, and slowly said: "Captain, I seem to think of the person opposite.
Who is it?"
"Huh? Takao, do you know that guy?" Taisuke Otsubo asked in surprise.
"That's right, even though I only saw the game in the audience at that time, I think I will never forget that guy's performance in my life! After all... that guy has overcome all the miracles.
Generations of monsters!"
······
A block interrupted Xiude's offense. Zhengbang grabbed the basketball and quickly launched a fast break.
A long pass passed two-thirds of the court. Before Xiude's players could even react, Zhengbang had already reached the opposite basket and easily scored two points.
32:25.
"You really trust this new No. 11! Did you predict that this guy would successfully block the shot before Midorima shot the basket?"
Xiude launched a new round of attack.
Because Midorima was being guarded by Akashi Asuka, Showtoku did not pass the ball to Midorima in this round, but launched an attack from the inside.
Hidetoku, who has Taisuke Otsubo, is also among the best in the country inside.
But unfortunately, the opponent they faced this time was Masakuni. Taisuke Otsubo and Tsutomu Iwamura were both top-notch centers in the country, and they happened to be in the same qualifying area. This was not the first time that the two had played against each other over the years.
Taisuke Otsubo has the advantage in height, but in terms of strength, Tsutomu Iwamura is stronger.
Xiude wanted to break through from the inside.
As a result, Taisuke Otsubo failed to find a suitable offensive position several times in a row and was forced to pass the ball out of the penalty area again. Then power forward Shinsuke Kimura scored two points.
34:25.
"Wow~ It seems like this is the first time I see Otsubo-senpai being frustrated in his inside attack!"
Although they finally succeeded in winning this round of offense, the difficulty of scoring these two points really shocked the Xiude High School players.
After all, since joining Xiude High School, this is the first time they have seen several third-year seniors being defended to this extent.
"Idiot, this is Masauni's true strength! After all, excluding Midorima's power, Masauni is a wealthy family and one of the 'Three Kings of Tokyo' with us!"
Zhengbang continues to attack.
Kasuga Ryuhei controlled the ball and crossed the midfield, and Akashi Asuka went straight to the inside. When he saw Akashi Asuka in position, Kasuga Ryuhei passed the ball directly to Tsugawa Tomoki.
Tsukawa Tomoki also did not hesitate and threw his hand.
"Don't even think about taking action!"
Miyaji Kiyoshi stretched out his hand to block Tsukawa Tomoki. This defense caused Tsukawa Tomoki a lot of trouble, but even though his movements were completely deformed, he still threw the ball.
"This goal can't be scored," Miyaji Kiyoshi said firmly.
"Idiot. This is not a matter of hit rate. It's best if this goal can go in. If it doesn't go in, someone will throw it in for me!" Tsukawa Tomoki grinned.
As Miyaji Kiyoshi said, the parabola of this ball was very crooked, and everyone knew it was a rebound.
Therefore, on Showtoku's side, center Taisuke Otsubo and power forward Shinsuke Kimura immediately wanted to get in position to grab the rebound. However, the moment they happened to take action, Akashi Asuka stepped out.
Boom!
It was like a huge boulder falling on the ground, the best position was directly occupied by Akashi Asuka, and no matter how hard Taisuke Otsubo and Shinsuke Kimura tried, they could no longer move Akashi Asuka.
"Are you kidding? This guy's body is made of stone?"
The expressions of both Xiude and Xiude changed.
The skill of "Shark O'Neal" from this world [Stock Position, Immovable as a Mountain] allows Asuka Akashi to move freely under the basket. With a light jump, he easily picks off the rebound.
Then he took off again and connected with a dunk, and the backboard let out an overwhelmed cry again.
boom!
34:27.
······
"So strong!"
This exclamation did not come from Xiude, but from Kitayama Yuzuki's mouth.
Looking at Akashi Asuka wreaking havoc on the field, Kitayama Yuzuki's eyes were slightly dull, and he said: "Although I had already guessed that after Akashi-kun integrated into Zhengbang's system, Zhengbang's defense would be improved, but I didn't expect that it would actually be possible.
Such a powerful point.”
"Especially the inside line. Originally, Zhengbang already had a top-notch center in the country like Iwamura-senpai, and now Akashi-kun has been added to the mix. Now Zhengbang's inside line is almost invincible."
Since joining Zhengbang, although the team has played a lot of training games, this is the first time for them to form a formal team to compete against other schools.
So this time Xiu De wanted to use Masahiro to test their combat effectiveness after possessing Shintaro Midorima. Masahiro also wanted to use Xiu De to test their combat effectiveness after possessing Akashi Asuka.
Judging from the current situation, both sides have achieved good results, but which side is stronger still depends on the showdown in the second half...
