Aomine Daiki In Shohoku: The Beginning

The ball was intercepted again!

Taoka Moichi in the Ryonan rest area couldn't help but tense up his muscles, his eyes widened like bells, and his face was full of disbelief.

Was that just a steal?

No!

He has been coaching for so many years and has experienced countless games, and stealing is a common thing in basketball games.

But Shin Izumi?

It seems... he had already made plans to steal from the beginning.

At the beginning, he defended Sendoh so tightly that he didn't give him a chance to catch the ball.

The other members of Shohoku also showed their usual defensive level, so Uekusa had to do it himself.

When attacking the inside line, Shin Izumi could have stepped forward to block it, but he let Uekusa go and continued to follow Sendoh.

This also gave a false impression that Uekusa could attack the inside line with his own strength.

But the problem also emerged at this time.

When Uekusa attacks the inside, Akagi will definitely come forward to defend. Uekusa cannot score from Akagi, so he can only choose to pass the ball.

Kaede Rukawa miraculously blocked Yuzumi again, and only Ikegami could receive the ball.

Shin Izumi was betting that Uekusa would not pass the ball to Ikegami, who was not good at scoring.

Then he took advantage of the situation to reveal a flaw to Sendoh, giving him space to receive the ball, and at the same time his own speed also slowed down.

This was also what Taoka Moichi did not understand at first.

Shin Izumi was obviously at a top-notch level in terms of physical speed, burst and defensive awareness, and it was impossible for him to make such a big mistake.

Now he knows.

Shin Izumi deliberately revealed this flaw, just for Uekusa to pass the ball to Sendoh, which was also a kind of trust in his own burst.

Confidence that he could pass Sendoh and steal the ball in an instant.

Thinking of this.

Taoka Moichi's forehead faintly showed beads of sweat the size of soybeans.

Only with enough basketball IQ and understanding of the strength of the players on the court can these series of changes be deduced.

This person's basketball vision, basketball IQ and control of the whole court can be said to be in a different field from everyone on the court.

Shin Izumi seems not to be a player, but more like a chess player.

Ryonan... it will be quite difficult to win this time!

The ball possession on the court changed in an instant.

"Retreat!"

Sendoh shouted at the first time.

But even if he shouted, it would not matter, with the speed of Ryonan and others, they could not catch up with Shin Izumi at all.

All the members of Shohoku stayed in place, without any plan for fast break.

This is a recognition of Shin Izumi's strength.

At this time, Sendoh was the only one on the court who followed Shin Izumi closely.

One did not have the ball and moved later, and the other had the ball but moved first.

The competition between the two teams' trump cards began again at this moment!

Everyone on the sidelines held their breath again, and hundreds of eyes stared at the two people on the court one after the other.

Even though Shin Izumi had the ball, he was visibly distanced from Sendoh.

"Gulp!" Taoka Moichi couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He clenched his fists so tightly that he didn't even notice that his nails were almost embedded in his palms. He silently chanted and shouted in his heart: "Catch up! Be sure to defend!" As he wished, when Shin Izumi came to the free throw line, Sendoh's figure was not far behind. "Finally caught up!" Taoka Moichi loosened his clenched fists and exhaled heavily. However, the next second. He seemed to think of something terrible again. His originally relaxed heartstrings tightened again. He kept muttering in his mouth: "It shouldn't be like this! Sendoh can see it, right?" Sendoh looked at Shin Izumi who caught up, and his mouth corners slightly raised. "I won't let you score!" On the sidelines, many students also breathed a sigh of relief. Catching up means half of the defense is successful. At this time. Shin Izumi ignored Sendoh, his eyes were still as calm as water, and he jumped up and made a layup. Sendoh followed closely behind, and his defense did not lose position.

As long as Shin Izumi took a shot, he would definitely let the former taste the taste of hot pot.

But just when he was about to reach out to block the shot, he looked at Shin Izumi again... with a playful look in his eyes!

What?

The original blocking action immediately stopped, and there was a slight movement of shrinking back.

His intuition told him that if he shot it, it would not only fail to prevent Shin Izumi from scoring, but would also result in a foul!

Thinking of this, he, who was always calm, felt a chill on his back.

The guy in front of him was very scheming!

Shin Izumi raised his eyebrows, as if he saw that Sendoh was no longer planning to defend.

But.

Since he had come here, how could he return empty-handed?

This was not his style!

The hand holding the ball retracted and followed Sendoh's retreating palm to meet it.

The moment his arm touched Sendoh's palm, he turned his wrist and gently threw the ball upwards.

"Sh ...
