Chapter 388 Hit Up

The Japanese team's new round of offensive was led by Koji Matsuda, and it was another standard sudden pass. After Ryota Taketo received the ball at the bottom corner of one side, he transferred the ball non-stop in a wide range, and distributed the ball to Okada Kubo at the top of the arc.

Okada Kubo didn't shoot a three-pointer rashly, but made a precise through ball and passed the ball to Toshiaki Kashiwagi inside.

Kashiwagi Junliang took advantage of the situation and turned around, directly attacking the basket, attracting Zhou Yu and Gong Xiaobin's double-team defense, and Shinsuke Iki, who was pulled to one side at a 45-degree mid-range, was open, and the catch was a mid-range shot, and the basketball passed A beautiful arc, crisp sound into the net!
In this round of attack, the Japanese team played very patiently. After the ball passed through the conduction between the five players, they finally had an excellent shot and made a steady hit.

It should be said that the basic skills of the Japanese players are very solid, especially in terms of shooting skills. Although they are not as coquettish and cool as the Korean players, they are very stable and practical.

Zhou Yu then personally held the ball across the half court. Since his teammates adopted the "single-handed" tactic, there is no need for him to "dominate the show" anymore. He just needs to do a good job in assists and rebounds.

Facing Shinsuke Iki, who was about the same height as himself, Zhou Yu adopted a low-handed dribble to lower the center of gravity. Mu Zhensuke's center of gravity was unstable, and he was completely wiped out.

In the next second, Zhou Yu continued to hold the ball inward, and the Japanese team's defense had to be forced to retreat. Zhang Jinsong, who was on one side of the bottom corner, had a chance. superior.

Zhang Jinsong catches the ball and makes a three-pointer without hesitation. Although his shooting posture is not very beautiful, he hits it smoothly!

"11:6", the Chinese team extended its lead to five points.

The pressure on the Japanese team was high, and the subsequent attack seemed more cautious. After the ball was passed by many people, Shinsuke Iki, who was sitting on the inside line, finally showed his power.

The Chinese fans in the stands screamed and whistled everywhere. Blocking shots seemed to boost morale more than shooting.

After Zhou Yu took the ball, he knew that this round of offense was extremely important. If he hit it smoothly, it would cause a greater psychological blow to the Japanese players.

When Zhou Yu was holding the ball for halftime, he was soon double-teamed by two Japanese players. He suddenly made a realistic one-handed diversion dribble feint, causing the two to collide intimately. Zhou Yu Taking the opportunity to flash it smoothly, he rose up at a distance of more than one meter from the three-point line and shot a "super long three-pointer".

The basketball made a cool arc and fell straight to the basket.

After the crisp sound of "唰", the audience was horrified. Zhou Yu's goal was a stroke of genius. He almost destroyed the entire defense line of the Japanese team by himself.

"14:6", the Chinese team has expanded its lead to eight points, and the two teams seem to be not in the same class.

The head coach of the Japanese team saw that the situation was not good, and immediately called a timeout.

Zhou Yu chatted happily with his teammates and went to the bench. He felt that the game was played very well, and he finally showed his strength to the fullest.

During the timeout, the atmosphere on the bench of the Chinese team was particularly relaxed. Everyone was talking and laughing. It seemed that the championship trophy of the Asian Championships was within easy reach.

Wang Fei vigilantly warned the players that the game has only just begun, and they should not get carried away just because they feel overwhelming. They must pay attention to the success rate, reduce mistakes, and do not give the Japanese team a chance to counterattack quickly.

Zhang Jinsong didn't take it seriously, took a sip of mineral water, wiped his mouth and said:

"Coach Wang, you think too highly of the Japanese team. Even if they were lucky enough to make a few fast break counterattacks, we immediately responded with a three-pointer and hit them all over the floor. Take a step back and say, even if they can We hit a few three-pointers by luck, and we still have Dazhi's 'ultra-long three-pointer', which is enough to scare them away, rolling and crawling."

As soon as Zhang Jinsong spoke, there was a burst of laughter. Zhou Yu felt very comfortable listening to it. Seeing that the Asian Championships were coming to an end, it was time for everyone to relax, so he followed up and said:
"That's right, Coach Wang, Brother Song is right, I still have the 'big ultra-long three-pointer' from the backcourt, which is useless."

Wang Fei was so angry that his complexion was ashen, he immediately clenched his fists, and roared hysterically:
"Are you two talking about cross talk! If you talk nonsense again, I'll send you to a mental hospital right away!"

The laughter stopped abruptly, and everyone shrank their necks and stuck out their tongues, not daring to say anything more.

"Lao Gong, you've got used to them, you can't find the north! If this goes on like this, there will be a bragging competition in the team!"

Wang Fei sat on the chair, panting heavily, his anger still lingering.

"Old Wang, calm down. It is very important for them to play basketball well, but we also try not to curb their playful nature. Think about it, since the organization of the training camp, they have been in a fully closed state. Almost cut off all contact with the outside world, very depressed, can't we allow them to indulge themselves properly."

Gong Luming spoke earnestly.

"Lao Gong, I think you are more suitable to be a psychiatrist. It is estimated that you can cure many 'depression' patients."

Wang Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"I can't even cure you, who else can I cure?"

Gong Luming sighed.

"You say I have 'depression'?!"

Wang Fei immediately opened his angry eyes and said.

"According to my observation, what you have is not 'depression', but 'mania' which is the precursor of 'depression'."

Gong Luming said slowly.

"Lao Gong, you..."

Wang Fei was so angry that his face was red and his ears were red, and he was at a loss for words.

After the timeout, players from both sides reappeared. The Japanese team took the lead in launching the offensive. The offensive rhythm was significantly accelerated, and the passing and running became more active and fast.

In fact, this is not surprising. Facing the Chinese team, they have neither a height advantage nor an advantage in personal ability. They can only disrupt the rhythm of the Chinese team by increasing their speed and win more opportunities.

The Chinese team, on the other hand, has significantly improved their adaptability because they have competed with the fast-paced South Korean team before. What they have to do is to stabilize their position and choose a good defensive focus.

Compared with outside defense, inside defense is obviously more important. If the inside is lost, it will lead to the complete collapse of the overall defense.

Therefore, the Chinese team's defense line began to gradually retract, and it also gave the Japanese team a chance to shoot a three-pointer.

After passing the ball many times tirelessly, Okada Kubo, who was located near the top of the arc, finally had a mobile phone opportunity. The catch was a three-point shot, and it was hollow into the net!

"14:9", the Japanese team quickly narrowed the point difference and was still five points behind the Chinese team.

The Japanese female fans immediately became excited, screaming everywhere, and several Japanese female fans in kimonos performed fan dances in public.

No wonder they were so excited. This was the first three-pointer hit by the Japanese team in this game, and it also let the Chinese players know that the Japanese players also have the ability to shoot three-pointers.

Zhou Yu immediately raised his vigilance. The opening of the Japanese team's outside line is not a good sign. You must know that the previous South Korean team almost came back with a strong three-pointer.

In the next round, Zhou Yu fell to the low position, ready to rely on a safe two-pointer at the basket to continue to stabilize the lead.

And Li Xiaoyong, Zhang Jinsong, and Hu Weidong were obviously having fun. After a few simple pick-and-roll cooperations on the outside, Li Xiaoyong made another emergency stop and made a mid-range shot. Unfortunately, the ball finally bounced out of the frame.

Fortunately, with his excellent rebounding skills, Zhou Yu struggled to grab this offensive rebound and won a second chance for the Chinese team to attack.
