Next, Hainan team's Amu quickly advanced and cut into the inside, but was double-teamed by Miyagi, Mitsui and Akagi.

This time, Akagi finally caught up with Amu. It was not that his defensive speed increased, but that Amu's breakthrough speed slowed down.

Just as Sendoh analyzed, there were only about 7 minutes left in the game. In the first half, Amu defended Rukawa and Hanamichi with all his strength, and then attacked with all his strength;

At the beginning of the second half, a 13-minute counterattack fast break was launched, focusing on both offense and defense, and Maki Shinichi's physical fitness was greatly tested.

On the other hand, Akagi not only rested for most of the game, but also because he was on defense in the second half, he did not let go on the offensive end. Therefore, he still had some energy left at this time and was finally caught.

At this time, Amu not only had to deal with the double-team interference of three people, but also had to find a way to score the ball. He turned his head and looked to the outside.

Because of his previous three-point shot, A Shen was heavily guarded by Rukawa.

The physical strength of these two players has declined by now, and it cannot be said that Rukawa is 100% able to cover A Shen and prevent him from receiving the ball.

But it is enough to cause enough interference to A Shen's three-point shooting, not to mention that there is also Huamichi wandering around the penalty area, who can participate in the defense at any time.

For example, when the offense was about to start with 30 seconds left, Amu had no choice but to take the risk and pass the ball to Miyagi Yoshinori.

After receiving the ball, Gong Yi shot it without hesitation. He knew that his role on the court was to chase points, and other than that he could only increase the burden on Amu on the defensive end, so he tried his best for every three-pointer.

Since Miyagi came on the court in the second half, he has made three consecutive three-pointers with a 3% hit rate.

Unfortunately, this three-point shot was blocked by Hanamichi who came over to defend shortly after the shot.

"Beep, 30-second offense violation, Xiangbei's ball!"

"Okay!"

There was a cheer from the Xiangbei bench. This was the first time that Hainan's attack was truly and meaningfully blocked after they launched a strong offensive in the second half.

Unlike their missed shots or those that were interfered with, this time Hainan was directly defeated tactically.

This means that Xiangbei will be able to continue to block Hainan's pursuit of points.

For Xiangbei, it’s still Mitsui’s ball.

But this time, Akagi took the initiative to run out to screen for Mitsui, blocking Ashina tightly, while Mitsui moved sideways to face Takasago and made a fake shot.

As expected, Takasago was fooled. Mitsui hit the ground and passed the ball to Hanamichi in the inside. Amu hurried forward to defend, while Hanamichi passed the ball to Miyagi Ryouta who was unguarded.

At this time, Miyagi Ryouta made a layup from the other direction. Takasago hurried to defend, while Miyagi jumped up and passed the ball to Rukawa. After Rukawa got the ball, he passed the ball from behind to Mitsui.

At this time, Mitsui's opponent was the 161cm tall Miyagi Yoshinori. Without any interference, Mitsui made a three-pointer!

"The outcome is decided. Coach Takato's backcourt double-gun tactics and Amu's breakthrough pass tactics have been broken by Xiangbei!"

Coach Tian Gang stood up and said the final words.

Looking at Amu running on the court, Yuzumi calmly analyzed:

"Only a team like Xiangbei, which has top-notch players in five positions, can make the emperor of Kanagawa Prefecture run around in a hurry."

"Beep! Hainan changes players."

In order to save Amu's energy on the defensive end, and also because his own double-gun tactics in the backcourt were broken, Coach Takato had to replace Miyagi Yoshinori with the defensive Muto Masaru, who was also in order to closely defend Mitsui.

"Fight them, Muto!"

With full of energy, Muto agreed without hesitation. After he came on the court, Amu's pressure was indeed reduced.

However, Hainan's attack was like a tape that was stuck in the throat and could only be continued intermittently.

The pick-and-roll tactics of Xiangbei were temporarily silenced due to the close defense of defensive expert Muto, which caused Mitsui, who was lacking in physical strength, to fail. However, Akagi, who did not need to use pick-and-roll or defend, became more energetic.

At present, Xiangbei is leading by 86 points, 80:6. How can they fight in this favorable situation? Do they need any teaching?

Akagi said, "Leave it to me." So he went all out in the last few minutes, not caring whether he would be fouled or not. Anyway, Hanamichi would deal with Takasago, and he completely turned into a giant beast in the interior, taking whatever he wanted.

"Beep! The game is over, 104:96, Xiangbei wins!"

"Long live Xiangbei!"

There was a cheer on the court, and all the players on the Xiangbei bench ran onto the court and hugged Akagi and the others to celebrate and cheer.

"Yeah, we beat Hainan!"

It took a while for the audience to react.

After reaching the joint finals for 16 consecutive years, the defending champion Hainan actually lost!

Led by the store manager with a little mustache, all the audience gave warm applause to their wonderful game!

"Hanamichi, thank you for letting me see such an exciting match. You won our bet!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the side quest ~ The bet of the mustache store manager, permanently obtain a pair of AJ sixth generation basketball shoes!"

Hanamichi heard the sound of the basketball data panel, waved in the direction of the mustache-faced store manager in the audience, and then went to celebrate with the Xiangbei people.

The Hainan team was silent. In the end, Amu held the crying Kiyota Nobunaga's head, hooked his shoulder and said:

"Alright, hurry up and line up. The joint finals have just begun. We need to work harder from now on..."

……

Just like that, on June 1992, 6, the unbeaten record of Hainan, the champion of Kanagawa Prefecture that had defended the title for 20 consecutive years, was broken, and the team that defeated Hainan was a once unknown "bottom-of-the-pack team".
