Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 389 Iki's Provocation

The ball was passed to Li Xiaoyong, and Li Xiaoyong reorganized the attack from the outside line. He dribbled the ball continuously under the crotch to accelerate, stopped and accelerated again. Li Xiaoyong broke through Koji Matsuda's defense line and went straight to the inside line.

With a proper breakthrough, Li Xiaoyong passed the ball to Hu Weidong in the bottom corner, and Hu Weidong passed the ball non-stop to Zhang Jinsong at the top of the arc.

The Chinese team was very patient in transferring the ball in a large area this time. After Zhang Jinsong got the ball, there was an open space in front of him. He shot a three-pointer without hesitation. The basketball crossed a beautiful arc and entered the net with a crisp sound!
"17:9", the Chinese team once again expanded its lead to eight points and continued its stable scoring momentum.

The three-point shot has always been the Chinese team's forte, especially in the fixed-point three-pointer, it is unique, and the shooting rate is very stable.

The Japanese team then continued to speed up, relying on the double-quick combination of Matsuda Koji and Okada Kubo to continue to put pressure on the inside of the Chinese team. The ball passed through the inside and outside repeatedly. Hook and send the ball into the basket smoothly!

"17:11", the Japanese team played tenaciously, trying to control the point difference to single digits.

At the critical moment when the score was rising alternately, the Chinese players did not rush to fight alone, but patiently played "internal and external cooperation". After halftime, the ball was first passed to Zhou Yu who fell to the low position. Shinsuke Iki hit back a few times. Seeing that the timing was not ripe, he passed the ball back to the outside player.

Outside players have the opportunity to shoot a three-pointer, and if there is no chance, they will pass it to the inside Zhou Yu again. After passing the ball inside and outside many times, there will always be a chance. The inside singles and the outside three-pointers of Hu Weidong, Zhang Jinsong, and Li Xiaoyong.

Of course, Gong Xiaobin is not willing to be lonely, and will pull to the middle distance from time to time to give the Japanese team some mid-range firepower.

In short, the offense of the Chinese team in the second half of the first quarter looked very reasonable, the shooting rate was also stable as before, and the scoring steadily increased.

In contrast, due to the lack of a superstar like Zhou Yu, the Japanese team played more difficultly. They could only try to find opportunities to make shots through continuous scoring, passing and cutting, and running positions. Fortunately, the Japanese team's hit rate The medium and long-range hit rate is not bad, which has caused the score between the two sides to not be opened.

After the first quarter, the score between the two sides was fixed at "31:25", and the Chinese team held a six-point lead.

During the inter-section break, Gong Luming and Wang Fei were very satisfied with the performance of the players in the first quarter. They believed that the players played very steadily and made few mistakes. The Japanese team did not make a few fast-break counterattacks. The reason for not opening the score is that the Japanese players have a good touch. However, I believe that with the deepening of the game, the Japanese players will not always have such a stable touch. As long as the Chinese team can seize the opportunity, it is likely to take away Game wins.

Although the two coaches were very satisfied with the performance of the players, Zhou Yu was not satisfied with his own performance, especially in the second half of the first quarter, under the double defense of Shinsuke Iki and Toshiro Kashiwagi, he appeared I have missed many close shots. If it weren't for my good rebounding skills, I would have been hit by the Japanese team with a deadly fast-break counterattack.

Wang Fei also seemed to see Zhou Yu's depression, walked up to him slowly, and said earnestly:

"Big Zhi, the inside competition on the basketball court has always been the most intense. Occasionally, it's normal to miss shots repeatedly. You should relax your mind and don't always get entangled in one thing."

"But... Coach Wang, my inside scoring skills have always been impeccable. Even in the NBA, I have been tried and tested, let alone the Japanese team."

Zhou Yu gritted his teeth, feeling unwilling.

"What are you bragging about! Don't always think of yourself as a 'ruthless person' who is superior to others. You are an ordinary member of the national team like everyone else. If you play around on the field and play handsome, don't call yourself my disciple in the future! "

Wang Fei reprimanded in a cold voice.

Zhou Yu heard that there was a cool breeze on his back, and now he was completely honest, and quickly admitted his mistake obediently:
"Coach Wang, I know I was wrong. Don't worry, I will be responsible for rebounding and defense in the future. I won't score a single point."

"Stinky boy! Are you admitting your mistakes, are you competing with me!..."

Wang Fei immediately blushed with anger.

"Old Wang, calm down, Dazhi is still an ignorant child, why lose his temper so much?"

Gong Luming hurried over to smooth things over.

"Dazhi is a stinky brat. He came back from the NBA. He didn't see any other skills. He is good at annoying people."

Wang Fei gasped heavily, his anger still lingering.

"Big Zhi, hurry up and tell me, how did you get so mad at Coach Wang?"

Gong Luming turned his head to look at Zhou Yu, Xingshi asked his guilt.

"I just confessed to Coach Wang that I want to be responsible for defense and basketball, and I don't want to continue to score."

Zhou Yu hung his head and answered truthfully.

"Old Wang, there is nothing wrong with Da Zhi's words. In the Asian arena, Da Zhi is already a 'Dugu seek defeat'. He really doesn't have much interest in scoring. A few blocks and a few rebounds are enough. His The main goal is events at the level of the World Championships and the Olympics."

Gong Luming turned his head to look at Wang Fei, and helped explain with a smile on his face.

"Are you two joining forces to brag about me?!"

Wang Fei opened his eyes angrily and said.

"..."

With the sudden sound of the electronic long sound, the second quarter of the competition between the two sides officially kicked off. In order to lay a good foundation, the Chinese and Japanese teams still sent their main players to play.

Unexpectedly, the Japanese team did not make the usual outside breakthrough, but directly handed the ball to the inside.

What was even more unexpected was that after Shinsuke Iki got the ball, he slapped Zhou Yu with his back in a grandiose manner, which made Zhou Yu feel ecstatic. The time for blocked shots and rebounds has come. The "triple-double" data of blocks and assists must be even cooler.

During the one-on-one defense, Zhou Yu suddenly felt that Shinsuke Iki's state was completely different from the first quarter, with more strength and more steady footwork.

When advancing to the vicinity of the penalty area, Shinsuke Iki suddenly made a nimble and quick turn on the line, flashed open, and shot a standard fadeaway jumper.

Although Zhou Yu tried his best to block the shot, due to Shinsuke Iki's large backward lean, the basketball passed his fingertips and fell straight to the basket.

After the crisp sound of "唰", Iki Shinsuke faced Zhou Yu's strong defense and made a steady hit!

Moreover, this is not over yet. After scoring the goal, Shinsuke Iki walked up to Zhou Yu and provocatively said in a slightly blunt Chinese:

"Wang Zhizhi, don't think that you are 'invincible' after playing in the NBA for one season. In the first quarter, I just let you go and didn't try my best. From now on, I will try my best to beat you and let you know Japanese basketball is great."

Zhou Yu immediately blew up when he heard the words. This Iki Shinsuke was probably the incarnation of Kiyota Nobunaga, and his words were extremely arrogant. How dare he talk trash in front of him, it's really hateful.

"I said, that Iki Shinsuke, do you know the difference between me and you?"

Zhou Yu suppressed the anger in his heart, cleared his throat and said.

"What's the difference?"

Iki Shinsuke said with a puzzled look.

"Your goal is at most the No. [-] center in Asia, while my goal is the No. [-] player in the world. This is the biggest difference between us."

Zhou Yu spoke loudly.

"Wang Zhizhi, you are so arrogant, I must teach you a lesson this time."

Iki Shinsuke gritted his teeth.

"Let's wait for the next life."

Zhou Yu laughed.
