In the locker room of Xiangbei,
it was also very restless.
First, Sakuragi made a scene in the locker room for the No. 10 jersey,
and then he insisted on being the starter,
because he still remembered what Kenichi Uesugi said to him yesterday,
if he didn’t start, he would have no chance to beat him!
But with his strength as a layman,
how could Coach Anzai really let him start?
Finally, under the threat of Akagi’s fist,
he reluctantly accepted the role of substitute!
Soon,
Players from both teams came to the court.
When they saw Sakuragi with red hair,
Ryonan players were very surprised.
"Look, there is a red-haired guy in Xiangbei!"
"Yeah! Why didn’t I notice it just now? He looks so scary!"
However, their conversation was heard by Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was angry about not getting a starting position.
Then he looked at the Ryonan players fiercely and said,
"What are you looking at! Don’t you have a yellow-haired guy there too!"
Ryonan players looked at Uesugi Kenichi with an expression of sudden enlightenment,
which made him speechless for a while!
After a simple warm-up,
The starting players of both teams all took the court.
Ryonan’s starting lineup is: center Uozumi, power forward Ikegami Ryoji, small forward Sendoh Sho, shooting guard Konoha Hiroaki, point guard Uekusa Tomoyuki.
Because Kenichi Uesugi did not start,
Sendoh returned to the small forward position,
and Konoha Hiroaki also played the shooting guard position he is most familiar with.
For Xiangbei: center Akagi Takenori, power forward Kadota Satoru, small forward Rukawa Kaede, shooting guard Shiozaki Tetsushi, point guard Yasuda Yasuharu.
After both teams’ starting players came on the court,
Ryonan’s players were surprised to see that the first-year Rukawa Kaede was actually able to start the game.
"Wow! That first-year Rukawa Kaede is the starter!"
"Yeah! I heard he’s very good!"
"What’s the big deal? We also have Kenichi Uesugi!"
"I wonder which of them is better!"
At this time, Sakuragi Hanamichi also found Kenichi Uesugi sitting on the bench of Ryonan,
He was a little depressed, but his mood suddenly improved.
He stood up and pointed in the direction of Kenichi Uesugi and said loudly,
"Hahaha! I thought you could start the game, but it turns out you are also a substitute!"
"Yesterday you were still pretending to be me, hahaha!"
Kenichi Uesugi was speechless and had to pretend to ignore him.
Ignore Sakuragi.
After all, he did set a flag in front of Sakuragi yesterday.
But who knew that Shigeichi Tanaka wanted to hide him?!
On the court,
Akagi, who was preparing for the jump ball, also saw that Kenichi Uesugi did not start the game,
and immediately shook his head,
feeling that his sister was exaggerating,
"If he can’t even start, how strong can he be? It seems that among the newcomers in Kanagawa this year, Rukawa Kaede is more reliable!"
"Beep!"
As the referee whistled,
Uozumi and Akagi both jumped high to fight for the ball,
At the moment when both of their palms were about to touch the basketball,
Uozumi took the lead and hit the basketball in the direction of Uekusa,
"Beautiful!"
"Captain Yuzumi beat Akagi!"
"Captain, keep going, and try to get the first point!"
Seeing this, the substitutes of Ryonan, led by Hikoichi, began to cheer for Yuzumi.
On the bench of Xiangbei,
Ayako frowned and said,
"Senior Akagi actually lost, even though he completely suppressed Yuzumi last year!"
Coach Anzai responded calmly,
"Yuzumi has been training very hard this year, and now it’s time to see the results!"
On the court,
Ryonan, who got the ball, started to attack,
Uekusa passed the ball to Sendoh immediately after dribbling a few steps,
Now that Kenichi Uesugi is not on the court,
Sendoh is naturally the best choice for attack.
After getting the ball, Sendoh didn’t pause at all.
He dribbled towards Xiangbei’s basket.
Just when he jumped up to dunk,
Rukawa Kaede suddenly appeared beside him.
He stretched out his hand to block Sendoh’s dunk.
But Sendoh dodged it.
Then Sendoh dunked with both hands to win the first point of the game for Ryonan.
The Ryonan bench immediately cheered.
Tanoka Shigeichi was also very satisfied with Sendoh who quickly entered the game at the beginning.
He also wrote off the fact that he was almost late just now.
Among all the Ryonan players,
only Uesugi Kenichi didn’t seem so happy.
When it came to Xiangbei’s offensive round,
Yasuda Yasuharu steadily carried the ball to the front court,
Then after his teammates were in position, he passed the ball directly to Akagi,
This is Xiangbei’s usual style of play,
After all, Xiangbei used to be a one-man team of Akagi,
Only he has the strength to help the team win the game.
Akagi just received the pass from Yasuda in the interior,
Yuzumi immediately stuck behind him,
and opened his hands to start defense,
At the same time, he said provocatively,
"Akagi, you seem to be a lot weaker this year than last year!"
"Humph! It’s enough to deal with you!"
Akagi said unwillingly,
At the same timeAt this time, Akagi began to push back with all his strength, in order to gain an advantageous position for himself, but Yuzumi was also trying hard to stop Akagi’s advance. The two started a pure strength competition under the basket. After a few seconds, Yuzumi did not move at all. Akagi was a little overwhelmed. Seeing this scene, Ayako in the audience couldn’t help but worry about Akagi. "I didn’t expect Yuzumi to make such great progress this year. Not only He won the jump ball against Senior Akagi, and now he is even as strong as him! "
"It’s not good to keep going like this!"
After Akagi on the court tried repeatedly without success,
he had to find another way.
He began to turn around with his back to Yuzumi,
trying to use fake moves by Toshinaga to deceive Yuzumi’s defense,
but he failed in the end.
Yuzumi was not fooled by his fake moves,
and he gave him a big block the moment Akagi shot.
With a loud bang,
Akagi’s ball was blown away by Yuzumi,
"Wow! It’s Yuzumi’s big hot pot!"
"Captain Yuzumi is so awesome! He blocked Akagi’s shot in one go."
"Keep going, Ryonan, and beat Xiangbei!"
Yuzumi’s continuous outstanding performance made the players of Ryonan very happy,
On the other hand, on Xiangbei’s bench,
there was a deathly silence,
Akagi, their most trusted captain, was suppressed by Yuzumi continuously,
which made them start to worry about the outcome of the game!
