"No, if the game continues like this, the situation will be very unfavorable to us."
At this time, the score on the court is 6:10. In terms of score, Shirolin currently holds the lead, but coach Aida Reiko not only has no joy at all, but bites her nails and frowns.
The result of a game only depends on the score, but there is more to a game than just the score.
Kagami Taiga's sudden entry into the [zone] at the beginning is indeed something beyond Reiko Aida's calculations. On the surface, this is not a good thing.
However, Aida Reiko did not directly call a timeout. The reason is that if this matter is used properly, it may not be unable to plan certain benefits for Shirin.
It’s not like Cheng Rin has never played a game that started with full intensity.
Even quite a few times.
Since the opening is full of firepower, although there may be a lack of stamina, if you can suppress your opponent's momentum at the beginning, you may be able to win the game directly.
Not all teams have the ability to come back from adversity.
What's more, even if you can't win the game directly, as long as you can suppress the opponent in momentum at the beginning, then at least the situation in the first quarter will be stable, and the basic problem will not be big.
After all, although "momentum" is something invisible and intangible, it really affects the player's state at all times.
So when she saw Kagami entering the [zone], Reiko Aida didn't respond immediately. The reason was that she thought he might be able to use the trick and let Kagami give Masakuni a show of strength first.
However, the reality is that with the explosion of [zone] status, although Vulcan Taiga has a certain advantage in points, his performance has not affected the status of the other Zhengbang players at all.
Too stable.
Even the 'Emperor Luoshan' they played against in the last game was completely unable to compare with the current Zhengbang in terms of the stability of the entire team.
It was as if Zhengbang's players were robots, unable to see Vulcan's active performance on the court. Even if their opponents scored consecutively over their heads, Zhengbang's formation still couldn't see even a trace of disorder.
And without chaos, there are no flaws. Facing a team without flaws, even if the Vulcans enter the [zone], it will be much more difficult to score.
"Compared with last year, Zhengbang now is like two teams."
Aida Reiko secretly marveled, then looked at Akashi Asuka on the field, and said secretly: "And this guy, he hasn't been to the swimming pool a month before the start of the Winter Cup, and now even I don't know his physical attributes.
To what extent has it been achieved?”
"But even after entering the [zone], the Vulcan is not absolutely sure to defeat him. This monster has probably grown to a situation that is unimaginable for everyone."
Aida Reiko's heart is quite heavy. She already has a rough estimate of the strength of all Zhengbang's players, but only for Akashi Asuka, he still can't see clearly.
She does have a lot of Akashi Asuka's physical data, but it's just physical data.
So far.
In addition to the official competition videos, there were only two private competitions in which Aida Reiko was able to collect information on Akashi Asuka.
One match is Akashi Asuka VS Kiyoshi Teppei and Hinata Junpei.
One match is Akashi Asuka VS Aida Kagetora.
The result of these two games was that Akashi Asuka won, but even with Aida Kagetora's eyes, he still couldn't see through Akashi Asuka's true trump card.
······
"Beep~~~"
Reiko Aida decided to apply for a suspension.
If the power of [zone] cannot be used to undermine Zhengbang's morale, then continuing to maintain this weak score advantage is just a waste of energy.
"Did Cheng Rin's coach finally call a timeout?"
"It must be to interrupt Kagami's rhythm! After all, if it continues like this, I'm afraid the game has just started and Cheng Rin won't be able to hold on."
At this time, there were countless famous school coaches and national-level players gathered outside the auditorium, so naturally what Reiko Aida could see, these people could also see.
And this is indeed the case. When Vulcan Taiga came on the field again, his [zone] status had disappeared.
Being able to release [zone] in this way is already a very good choice at the moment.
"Huh? Does this cancel [zone]?"
Most people think it is reasonable for Kagami Daiga to cancel the [zone] at this time, but many people on Zhengbang's side are surprised.
“I always feel like this guy’s [zone] is a bit weak!”
Tsukawa Tomoki is still the outspoken young man.
But this time, he really happened to reveal the true thoughts of other insiders.
After all, Zhengbang has played against almost all the 'Generation of Miracles' so far, and has met many players who have entered the [zone] many times.
Every time they encountered this kind of monster in the past, the first feeling everyone in Zhengbang felt was powerlessness.
It is a kind of despair that no matter how many people are used to defend, it seems that the opponent cannot be stopped. Even a three-person defense can only limit the opponent's scoring efficiency at best, but it still cannot completely block the enemy.
Whenever this happens, only Akashi Asuka also enters the [zone] to be able to compete with it.
But this time I fight against Vulcan Taiga...
What should I say!
Although Vulcan is also very strong, Zhengbang still cannot completely prevent the opponent from scoring.
But in fact, this time facing Kagami Taiga who entered the [zone], Zhenggang, without Akashi Asuka entering the [zone], had greatly limited the opponent's scoring efficiency just by relying on the cooperation of everyone.
There seems to be a huge gap between this result and the result they originally expected.
Akashi Asuka naturally knows the reason.
Because to be precise, this is the true strength of the Vulcan Self.
Just like Akashi Asuka has always said to everyone in Masukuni that Jorin is a magical team, but he never said that Jorin is a strong team.
The power displayed by [zone] depends on the potential of the players themselves.
The strength of the Vulcan Self in its normal state is at this level.
Only the Vulcan Self can be considered powerful after it has exploded. If it has not exploded, even if it enters the [zone], the power that the Vulcan Self can show is only this.
However, Akashi Asuka did not dwell on this matter, but said directly: "Since the opponent's 'ace' has already broken out, then it is our turn next."
"According to the original plan, let's get a breakthrough from their inside line first!"
······
After the game restarts.
Cheng Lin and the spectators outside the stadium immediately noticed the change in Zhengbang's formation.
The most obvious change is that Asuka Akashi no longer guards Kagami Taiga, but moves his position inside and forms a double center tactic with Tsutomu Iwamura.
"Oh~~ Are you planning to open a breakthrough from Cheng Lin's inside?"
They are also a defensive team with a strong inside line, and the people in Yangquan were the first to notice Masokuni's intentions, but for some reason, Murasakihara Atsunong felt that Masokuni's idea was not that simple.
If we look at the strength of the team, Zhengbang undoubtedly has the power to penetrate Chenglin's inside line.
After all, after Muyoshi Teppei returned, Shiro Rin's inside deficiencies were not only made up for, but even became the team's strength.
But it also means that Jorin's inside line is almost supported by Muyoshi Teppei alone. Although Kagami Daiga can also assist to a certain extent, there is obviously still a certain gap between the strength of the two of them compared to Masahiro.
Don't talk about other people.
Just the fact that Akashi Asuka is a stronger center than Murasakihara Atsushi is enough to make Jorin drink.
What's more, Zhengbang also has a nationally top center like Tsutomu Iwamura at his disposal.
On the surface.
It seems to be destined that Zhengbang will penetrate Chenglin's inside line.
But precisely because this result is so natural, many people feel a sense of incongruity.
“What’s this feeling...?”
Aida Reiko looked at Masakuni's layout on the field, and suddenly an uneasy premonition arose in her heart, but for a moment she didn't know where this premonition came from.
And at this moment, the game on the field has started again.
Jorin still had the right to attack. After Kagami exited the [zone] state, Jorin resumed the team basketball style, with Itsuki Jun controlling the ball from behind, and then using the wide field of vision of [Eye of the Eagle]
Look for gaps in Zhengbang's defense and launch a passing attack.
As a result, after just a preliminary glance, Yi Yuejun found a big vacancy.
Kuroko was completely unguarded.
Akashi Asuka and Iwamura Tsutomu sit under the basket.
Kasuga Ryuhei versus Itsuki Jun.
Omuro Giichi changed his position to defend Vulcan Taiga.
Tsugawa Tomoki, who was originally guarding Kuroko, was rotated in front of Hinata Junpei.
"Do you still want to do the same thing again? Then you are looking down on others. Heizi now is completely different from last semester!"
The last time Masahiro fought against Jorin, he finally defeated Jorin by completely ignoring Kuroko Tetsuya's style of play.
So after seeing Zhenggang changing positions this time, Yi Yuejun subconsciously thought that Zhengbang would repeat his old tricks, so he passed the basketball to Kuroko Tetsuya without hesitation.
Facing the big open space in front of him, Kuroko didn't have much time to think, and decisively took the [Phantom Shooting Basket] posture...
"Oh oh oh~~"
"Coming!"
"The magical shot of that magical boy Cheng Rin."
Hearing the cheers from the audience, many people's expressions changed slightly.
Qingfeng Dahui sighed: "I've been tricked again! Cheng Lin!"
In fact, when she heard the sound from the audience, Reiko Aida had already noticed something was wrong, but at this time, even if she wanted to stop it, it was too late.
Because the basketball in Heizi's hand had already shot out and was stopped by a big hand.
Snap!
The sound made by the collision between the palm and the basketball was so clear and loud. It was like a slap in the face, and the expressions of everyone in Chenglin instantly changed.
"How come?"
"I actually blocked [Phantom Shooting Basket] the first time I saw it."
The Cheng Lin players were quite shocked. In fact, in the last game against Luoshan, the secret of [Phantom Shooting] had been almost solved.
Although it has not been completely cracked, it was just that Akashi Seijuro thought it was unnecessary at the time, not that it could not be cracked.
But Rakuzan is Rakuzan, and for Akashi Asuka, this is obviously the first time he has seen [Phantom Shooting Basket] with his own eyes.
As for the person who can block [Phantom Shooting Basket] when seeing it for the first time, this is the first time that people from Cheng Lin have seen it so far...
Zhengbang quickly launched a counterattack.
Kasuga Ryuhei dribbles forward, but not very fast.
Zhengbang is not Cheng Rin. Although they can also play fast break, Zhengbang will not use this move under normal circumstances, especially now.
After advancing all the way to the three-point line, Kasuga Ryuhei passed the basketball to Akashi Asuka on the inside. At this time, Kagami Taiga and Kiyoshi Teppei had already completed their defense inside.
However, facing the defense of these two people, Akashi Asuka didn't even pause, and directly used his post-up technique to force his body to the basket.
"Damn it, how can this guy be so powerful?"
Kiyoshi Teppei and Kagami Daiga had already used up all their strength in feeding, and their faces were pressed against Akashi Asuka's back, which was already squeezed and deformed.
But even so, they couldn't even slightly stop Akashi Asuka's progress.
Boom!
With a brutal slam dunk, Muyoshi Teppei and Kagami Taiga were knocked out directly.
"Oh oh oh~~~"
"So strong! Even if the two of them join forces, they are no match at all!"
"As expected of the overlord of the inside—Akashi Asuka!"
······
Kiyoshi Teppei stood up, moved his already numb arms, and said with a wry smile: "This guy feels like Murasakibara again... No, maybe he is even stronger than Murasakibara!"
Hinata Junpei echoed: "Don't we already know about this? Let's go! It's our turn to fight back."
Because of the one-on-one match in the summer, Hinata Junpei and Kiyoshi Teppei had a certain ability to accept the current situation, so even if they were knocked down, they recovered very quickly.
It didn't take long.
Cheng Lin reorganized his formation and launched a new round of attack towards Zhengbang.
Returning to the defensive end, Akashi Asuka returned to the inside again, but this time Jorin's offense was launched from the outside.
Following the lesson learned from the last pass, even Kuroko Tetsuya was still wide open this time. Ituki Jun did not pass the basketball to him, but instead passed it to Hinata Junpei on the other side.
After Hinata Junpei received the pass, he immediately wanted to find an opportunity to take action. However, several times in a row, let alone taking action, he could not even find an open space.
"This guy's defense is really tough."
Hinata Junpei's face turned blue. Naturally, he would not underestimate Tsugawa Tomokori's defensive skills. After all, the last time Kagami was guarded against a fourth foul was still fresh in his mind.
However, it was only when he faced Tomoki Tsugawa's close pressing that Hinata Junpei truly felt how strong the opponent's defensive pressure was.
To put it bluntly, the feeling given to him by Tomoki Tsugawa now is no less than that of the 'Generation of Miracles'.
