NBA: This flower path is a bit strong.

Chapter 76: Challenging the Overlord Mountain King

"The Ryonan team's performance is over, now it's our turn!"

"Let's go!"

"Oh x11."

……

"Next, after a short break, we will report another semi-final match for you. Shohoku High School from Kanagawa Prefecture will challenge the national champion Sanno Industrial!"

A strong voice came from the PA in the gymnasium.

The spectators didn't think there was anything different and shouted loudly:

"Kill them, Mountain King!"

"You have to win the championship this year, Fukatsu!"

"Wow... Zebei..."

…………

All the players of Sanno Industrial slowly walked into the basketball court from the player tunnel in this noisy atmosphere.

For them, this noisy atmosphere is already commonplace.

After all, every national competition and every game is "baptized by support" from fans and spectators, and this has been going on for a long time.

The cheers from the audience will only stimulate their adrenaline further and make them do something to show off.

Look, it was supposed to be warm-up time, but Zebei Rongji ran straight towards the empty basket in the Shohoku half of the court.

Seeing this, Fukatsu Kazunari wiped his forehead and shouted:

"You're running the wrong way!"

But at this time, Zebei was like an arrow shot from a bow, as fast as lightning!

He didn't know if he really didn't hear it, but he just ignored what Kazunari Fukatsu said.

Seeing this, Shenjin could only throw the ball in an arc towards the basketball hoop on the opposite side of the court.

When Zebei Rongji just took a big step inside the free throw line, the basketball just fell diagonally in front of Zebei.

Zebei Rongzhi stretched out his arms and caught the ball with both hands in mid-air.

Then he used his waist and abdomen to make a 270-degree rotation and dunked the basketball.

“Ah…Wow…Zebei!!!”

This dunk again caused the audience to get excited and roar.

"You idiot, you had to do such a dangerous move before the game! You did it to look cool, right? Damn it, take my arm lock!"

Masashi Kawata dropped the basketball in his hand and locked onto Eiji Zebei's arms, checking back and forth.

After a long while, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then let Zebei Rongji go.

"That ball was originally intended to do a 360° rotation!"

Shenjin recalled the warm-up movements that Zebei had been practicing hard before the game.

"Because I was running against the basket and the distance was too far, my pass was not in the best position."

"So Zebei gave up the 360-degree fancy dunk."

"Zebei, who seems to be more carefree than anyone else, also has a side that makes his teammates choose to trust him!"

"Sorry, I ruined your cool opening warm-up!"

Fukatsu said embarrassedly.

He believed that as long as Zebei was willing, he could risk getting injured and complete the entire 360° movement.

"Don't worry about it. The whole nation has already seen me, the best high school student in Japan, right?"

Zebei Rongzhi looked at the warm atmosphere in the venue.

"One more, Zebei!"

"One more... one more..."

In this atmosphere, the bad boys - the Xiangbei High School basketball team came on stage.

As they got closer to the national stage, the agitation coming from the venue grew louder and louder.

Passing through the player tunnel, the final stage of the national competition finally appeared before the eyes of the Xiangbei people.

They knew that this semi-final was actually the final battle.

If Sannoh wins, then Ryonan, which has been "seriously injured", will naturally not be a match for Sannoh.

The reason why the Xiangbei team was a little late for the warm-up was because Akagi and others found that an ambulance stretcher was heading towards the Ryonan locker room, so they led the team to visit the Ryonan team.

The situation is very bad, Doujiang~Yuzumi Jun has two broken ribs...

It looks like it was done by the honest and straightforward "Da Kuan Yu" using the "Tie Shan Kao"!

I really don’t know what level Mori Shigehiro can reach if he receives further training from the drunkard coach!

In addition, Ryonan's Sendoh and Ikegami were also exhausted, and it seemed that even one day's rest would not be enough to recover to their peak condition.

This is the cruelty of the national competition.

There is only one day between each game. Once there is an injury or lack of physical strength, it basically means elimination!

In the original work, after defeating Sannoh, Shohoku High School was left with only remnants, and finally lost to Aiwa Academy. It can only be said that it was fate!

In addition, it's not just Sannoh. If it is Shohoku that wins the game today, they will basically secure the top spot in the country.

This is mainly because Hanamichi and others already have the experience and confidence to defeat Ryonan.

Basketball reporter Yayoi Aida watched the two teams warm up in an orderly manner and asked his younger brother Nakamura to take the camera.

Then I recalled what I saw and heard in the Sanno training dormitory last night.

First, the players of Sannoh, starting with captain Kazunari Fukatsu, described this national competition as "not a single one who can play."

It reveals their strong confidence as the national champion for three consecutive years.

Yayoi Aida doesn't believe that the people of Sannoh would have the same view as the general spectators, thinking that Shohoku was lucky to make it into the top four, and thus not taking Shohoku seriously.

That's called "Wu Dalang riding a plane - his vision is limited"!

As expected, the naughty Kazunari Fukatsu said that this was a joke on Yayoi Aida of "Flaming Lips":

"We at Sanwang will regard all our opponents as strong foes!"

It is obvious that this means despising the enemy strategically but taking the enemy seriously tactically.

It would be impossible for the Xiangbei team to take advantage of the situation in this game.

Next, Sannoh had a... uh... one-sided game with a university star team that imitated the Shohoku lineup, and the university star team was defeated miserably!

Finally, when analyzing the strengths and characteristics of the Shohoku team, Yayoi Aida, who was originally thought to have to avoid suspicion, was also invited to participate.

It seemed that the people of Sanwang were not worried at all that she would leak these things.

After all…every year, Coach Domoto would take the initiative to invite reporters to participate in intelligence analysis!

This is what Yayoi Aida learned as a professional journalist in the Sanno training dormitory.

She did not pass the first-hand information to Xiangbei through her stupid brother. His consideration was just as Coach Domoto said:

"We, the Sanwang, are eager for you reporters to pass this information to our opponents. This may make them even more terrified!"

"Besides, even if Xiangbei wants to make targeted improvements, how much can they improve in just one night?"

However, when leaving the Sanno training dormitory, Yayoi Aida also had nothing to say.

As a team that once defeated Ryonan (Sendoh), if Sannoh could truly compare their strength to that of a university star team, then... hehe...

After all: the Xiangbei team is even stronger than what is shown in the national competition video tapes!

Their style is also completely different from this college star team!

……

The scene shifted from Aida Yayoi's memories to reality. The Xiangbei team just finished the warm-up training for more than ten minutes under the cheers of the audience for Sannoh:

"This isn't right!"

Yayoi Aida, who is familiar with the personalities of the players of the Xiangbei team, always feels that this warm-up activity will not end so "harmoniously"!

Sure enough, after the warm-up was over and everyone walked off the court, only Hanamichi was left standing near the midfield with the ball!

Hanamichi had not originally planned to jump from the free throw line and then "hit the rim" and fall down like in the original work.

But during the warm-up, I overheard the audience say that Sannoh’s No. 9 [Boiled Egghead] made a sneak attack.

Before they came on the court, he performed a gorgeous 270-degree slam dunk in Xiangbei's half!

This is really "I can tolerate it, but my uncle can't tolerate it. My uncle can tolerate it, but my aunt can't tolerate it either!"

So Hanamichi decided to teach this top high school student in the country what "ball ethics" is!

Hanamichi’s familiar running after the ball is like a cheetah striking;

Taking off from the free throw line, it's like an eagle spreading its wings;

Stretch your body, as graceful as a peacock spreading its tail;

The bow is drawn, like an arrow on a full string;

He raised fire to the sky, as if to set the firmament on fire;

A slam dunk is like a volcanic eruption, so majestic!

"what!!!"

The supporters of the Shohoku team finally found an opportunity to dance and shout excitedly while surrounded by Sannoh fans.

But in just a moment, it was drowned out by the voices of Sanno fans:

"Wow!"

There was an uproar at the scene... This is a jump from the free throw line!

Hanamichi's slam dunk from the free throw line completely shocked everyone present.

It even overturned their pre-match view that the Xiangbei team was "a bit lucky".

It seems... the people on the Shohoku team are not bad. At least in the traditional pre-match "talking tough" session, they were able to come up with some powerful moves and effectively responded to Sannoh.

After successfully dunking the ball, Hanamichi released his right hand that was holding the basket and landed steadily.

He swaggered off the court and joined his teammates.

It seems very stable, but in fact it is the time to put aside the worries in my heart.

"Huh! Finally I didn't embarrass myself~ I reproduced the classic scene from the original! It turns out that my height and arm span have not been increased in vain, and my jumping ability has improved as well!"

"This is a show of strength, you guys should take it seriously, Mountain King!"

Huadao has no fear towards the championship team!

Nonsense, with the cheats, I will play against the championship team!

So, history changed dramatically from this moment on.

Even after Hanamichi became an NBA superstar, every time a coach taught a new player, he would use him as an example to warn the rookies to keep their feet on the ground:

Some people have played basketball for 20 years, but they are still stuck in the same thinking as when Hanamichi first started playing basketball: I want to be in the spotlight;

Some people have had the awareness of Akagi playing against Sannoh since the first day they entered the league - I can do anything the team needs me to do in order to win the game.

But there is one thing these coaches haven't said yet, which is:

"If you have the talent and speed of flower arrangement, then you can go ahead and show off! Don't be born with flower arrangement disease without flower arrangement~"
