Chapter 634 "My most glorious moment..." "It's now!"
"This game..."
"Destined to be recorded in animation history!"
……
This shocking game continues!
On the field, Rukawa Kaede finally found the feeling of the game in the second half of the game. Just when Zebei was hesitating whether Rukawa Kaede should pass or break through next, Rukawa Kaede pulled up on the spot and hit a three-pointer!
"Three points?!"
This sudden three-pointer made everyone unexpected. Throughout the game, Rukawa Kaede had been stuck in a fight with Zebei. For a moment, everyone forgot that Rukawa Kaede still had this skill!
As this three-pointer towards Zebei fell accurately into the basket, the Xiangbei team was like a drowning person, and for the first time they saw hope of reversing the game!
"Ahhhhhhhhh-"
"The ball is in!"
"Holy crap! Only 5 points left!"
"How strong is Rukawa Kaede's heart? I'll go! How dare you make such an offensive choice at this time!"
"A truly ace player, success or failure depends on this!"
"Key three points!"
"The mountain king stopped."
……
The importance of this key three-pointer is self-evident.
With only 1 minute and 59 seconds left in the game, the score was chased to 69-74!
Facing the menacing Shohoku, the Sanno team actually requested a timeout!
Nowadays, the morale of Xiangbei is strong, and the next round is crucial for Xiangbei and Sanno. Sanno must arrange it well!
It can be said that at this point in the game, it was no longer completely under Sanno's control as it was in the first half. Shohoku's tenacity exceeded everyone's expectations, including the Sanno team!
Everyone in Xiangbei who came to the bench was united, and Miyagi roared:
"Now the fight to the death begins! Let's work together, brothers!"
"Oh——"
Akagi couldn't help but burst into tears when he thought of the ridicule made by the popular players in the past and his pursuit of dreams along the way, and then thought of this difficult game. However, such tender scenes could hardly last more than a few seconds in the Shohoku team.
Rukawa Kaede waved his hand, "It's so ugly to cry."
Miyagi and Mitsui were also mocking and teasing Akagi, but Sakuragi Hanamichi, who should have been huffing and puffing the most, was frozen in place at this moment, his face full of pain.
"Holy shit!"
"That time on my back..."
“It feels very serious!”
"No, old thief, I don't want to use this knife!"
……
Sakuragi's back injury was discovered. This is an injury related to the career of an athlete!
You have to know how many athletes in the professional arena play with injuries for a key game, and end up with a miserable ending. In the previous NBA, stars such as Durant and Griffin all played with injuries and even played. The closure caused the injury to worsen and the strength to plummet.
At this point in the game, the audience does not want Sakuragi and Shohoku to have regrets due to this factor. Even if they lose, they will lose without regrets!
It is really not easy for everyone in Xiangbei to chase the score to this point. They are indispensable!
"The relationship between our players is not particularly good, and you always make me angry..."
"Yes..."
Akagi thought this way:
"This team..."
"The best team in the world..."
So...
“We must win!!”
The Five Tigers of Northern Hunan roared one after another.
The game has reached this point, and there is no way out!
Sakuragi Hanamichi, even though he knew that his injury might affect his subsequent sports career, he still chose to play with the injury. This is an athlete!
Why in the professional arena, regardless of whether they are football players or basketball players, even if they are desperate before important games, they will play with injuries and risk their entire careers because they love this sport!
For them, this sport is not only profit, but also brings honor. Just as former NBA superstar Kevin Durant said, "Give me 10,000 choices, and I will choose 10,000 times." Come on then!”
Xiangbei, who returns to the competition field, is firm and decisive!
……
Back to the game, there are only two minutes left on the clock.
The key attack from the Mountain King!
After the timeout, Sanno showed his true qualities as a defending champion. He was calm and unflustered. Fukatsu, the No. 1 guard in the country, passed the ball without looking at anyone. The basketball passed through the defense line accurately and was handed over to Ohda inside for a dunk. Scored two points and once again widened the point difference to 7 points!
In this way, the point difference between Sanno and Shohoku will be 3 rounds...
"Xianbei..."
"We're going to lose!!"
Before everyone could recover, the Xiangbei side's first serve, a nerve-wracking scene reappeared. At the last moment of the game, the Sanwang team once again showed off their special skills and pressed the whole court!
"I rely on this physical fitness!"
“The full-court press at the decisive moment of the game!”
Anyone who knows basketball knows that the full-court press tactic takes a huge toll on defenders. Being able to press full-court after a whole game shows that the San Kings' physical reserves are still healthy.
Caught off guard, Miyagi was once again double-teamed, and it was from Fukatsu and Sawehita, the strongest opponents!
But now Miyagi has sharp eyes. The short guard cannot break through such a double-team defense by jumping and passing. He can only rely on breakthroughs and dribbling. Now there is no retreat. The brothers have reached this point in the game. In such a situation, how could Miyagi let his brothers' efforts be ruined by his own hands? At the beginning of the second half, it was because of his own lack of ability that the score was widened.
Is this story going to happen again? !
Thinking of this, Miyagi directly put the ball into the gap, used his speed to pass between the double-teams of Fukatsu and Sawehita, and successfully carried the ball across the half court and handed it to Akagi.
What's even more frightening is that nowadays Sakuragi has almost no way to make big moves on the field.
The back injury seriously affected Sakuragi's condition!
"Shobei needs to score!"
"Score!"
Zebei blocked Rukawa Kaede's receiving route, and Akagi could only choose to attack Ogada under the basket. However, this offensive method has been proven to be unfeasible many times. Akagi's strong attack strikes the iron...
……
"Holy shit!"
"!!!"
"Sakuragi Hanamichi!"
"Woooooooooo..."
"Oh God!"
The moment the backboard flew out, there was that red figure again!
Even though his back was already painful and he was grimacing, he still appeared in the most correct position, grabbed the rebound, and dunked with one hand!
Sakuragi Hanamichi, the protagonist who has only just been exposed to basketball, has done everything he can in this game.
Although the Sanno team fouled first and the score was invalid, Sakuragi's will is so touching!
"Sakura..."
This ball seemed to use up all the remaining strength of Sakuragi, making Sakuragi unable to stand firm at all after landing from the air!
Countless spectators from all over Kyushu had tears in their eyes and covered their mouths as they watched Sakuragi Hanamichi, who could barely move, being sent off the field by Akagi...
It’s hard for everyone to describe how they feel at this moment. Even if it’s just anime, they seem to be able to feel that Sakuragi Hanamichi is such a live athlete. This is an injury that will affect his career. It’s best to rest now. choose.
But just like Sakuragi himself, he was unwilling to end up like this!
Sakuragi, who was lying on the ground, thought of many stories in his mind. There were pictures of him just getting into basketball, his vow to surpass Rukawa Kaede, and all the pictures of struggling on the basketball court...
Did these four months of hard work really turn into a dream?
This is a romance for men.
Fight together with your teammates, work hard together, and win the game together. This kind of passion, this kind of pursuit of goals, nothing can replace it!
Countless pairs of eyes looked at Sakuragi and this unwilling man.
At this moment, Sakuragi Hanamichi couldn't help but recall the words Akagi Haruko asked when she saw him for the first time:
"Do you like playing basketball?"
Do you like...
Do you want to play basketball...
Suddenly, Sakuragi endured the severe pain, stood up from the ground, supported Akagi Haruko, and said with such seriousness never before:
“I like it very much!”
"I won't lie this time!"
……
This sentence is like a bright shooting star, shining in front of all the audience.
Sakuragi once had no love or respect for basketball, but now, step by step, Sakuragi has fallen in love with the sport of basketball under the witness of everyone, and has become an outstanding basketball player.
It is like a dream for Sakuragi, and it is not a dream for these viewers who have witnessed Sakuragi's growth all the way?
The old thief's works are still able to harvest everyone's tears.
In the past few days of updates, the audience was crying and breaking their defenses almost every day!
The touch that "Slam Dunk" brings to the audience is really incomparable. This is a touch that everyone has never witnessed before. This is basketball, this is youth, and these are the years of fighting on the court with brothers!
Back on the court, Akagi withstood the pressure and made two free throws, narrowing the point difference to 5 points again!
5 points!
This is a critical node!
The score difference of 2 rounds means that Xiangbei cannot afford to make any mistakes in the next attack and defense. Under normal circumstances, they must defend against two attacks by Sanwang and score at least two goals in a row before they can achieve a reversal and overtake. !
But at this moment, the trembling red-haired figure came to the technical stage, and under the shocked eyes of countless people, asked for a substitution!
"Sakura!"
"Sakura..."
The members of the Shohoku team and the spectators who supported Shohoku shouted, and even Coach Anzai came to Sakuragi and stopped him:
"Sakuragi...I want to apologize to you."
"Actually, I have discovered your situation a long time ago. Although I have discovered it, I am still struggling whether to replace you."
"Because I really want to see...the more you fight, the better..."
"I am so derelict as a coach."
"If you are one step too late, you may regret it for the rest of your life..."
……
Don't use this to kill me! !
Hearing Coach Anxi's gentle words, the audience burst into tears!
Coach Anzai has always attached great importance to and cultivated Sakuragi with real affection. For the orphan Sakuragi, coach Anzai not only regarded him as a team member, but also as his own child.
Seeing Sakuragi's injury, no coach will probably allow the players to play again!
But Sakuragi did not obey Coach Anzai's orders, but panted heavily and endured the severe pain in his back.
In the silent arena, under the gaze of thousands of anime fans.
He said something that is still classic even after decades:
"Dad..."
"When was your most glorious moment?"
"Is it time to serve as a national player?"
"And I..."
At this moment, Xiazhou, Yingzhou, Hanzhou, Xizhou...
All anime fans looked at the screen with tingling hair and tears in their eyes, looking at this decisive red-haired boy!
I only heard Sakuragi Hanamichi say:
"And I..."
"My most glorious moment..."
"It's now!"
……
Tears! !
This is a scene that audiences in previous lives said would make them cry no matter how many times they watch it!
Sakuragi's determination is vividly demonstrated in this sentence. Everyone knows that no one can stop Sakuragi from playing at this time. This game is everything to Sakuragi, even at the risk of aggravating the injury!
On the court, Rukawa Kaede deliberately fouled and won the chance of a dead ball. Then he said to Sakuragi without looking back:
"Hey!"
"Standing there blankly is an eyesore. If you want to appear, just appear, you big idiot."
Rukawa Kaede's words are as "unpleasant" as ever, but Rukawa Kaede's recognition of Sakuragi is seen by everyone, and only Rukawa Kaede can understand Sakuragi's determination best!
In other words, the two of them are the same kind of people!
Under such circumstances, amid the cheers of thousands of spectators and the worries of many team members in Shobei, Sakuragi once again went into battle and returned to the battlefield that belonged to him!
Even Akagi and Mitsui couldn't believe that coach Anzai would let Sakuragi return to the game!
On the basketball court, coaches often say, "Put everything you have into the court", and Xiangbei did it!
Xiangbei really tried his best!
There is only one minute left in the game.
The score [Xiangbei] 71:76 [Sanno], a difference of 5 points!
"Absolutely win!"
"Come on! Mountain King!"
"Come on!!"
"Come here!!"
……
With Sakuragi's reappearance, Shohoku's momentum has reached an unprecedented peak. Even the members of the Sanno team are looking at this momentum!
As an audience, they can do nothing but cheer for Xiangbei and pray for Xiangbei! !
"Xiangbei! Come on!"
"Fight!!"
"Win this one!"
"Defeat the Mountain King!"
There is no such thing as rationality anymore.
You know, if a rational audience thinks about it now, they will know that in the competitive state of Xiangbei, even if they win the Sanno, they will not be able to go further in the future. But just like the current state of the members of the Xiangbei team, they will do everything. Invested in this arena.
There is no so-called after, it is now!
At this moment, the Xiangbei team conquered too many people!
Even everyone in Hainan who had been mocking Sakuragi before was nervous for the Shohoku team, "There is one minute left, Sanno's goal is going to be scored, and Shohoku is over!"
Yuzhu also shouted with all his strength, "Hold on to the death! Hold on to this goal to the death!"
Back on the field, the Mountain Kings don't have any "gentleman" habits. Competitive sports are hot-blooded and cold-blooded. Since you play with an injury, it means you have a soft spot, so you must deal with it!
Sanno quickly passed the ball to Ogawada. At this time, Sakuragi's back pain worsened and he could not withstand Ogawada's strength. Ogawada turned around and resisted Sakuragi, preparing for a layup!
If this ball is scored, it will kill the game early!
"It's over!"
No one can catch up in time. This is a 1-on-1 singles tactic, which obviously targets Sakuragi's injured spot!
But what the Sanno team never expected was that Sakuragi would be so decisive at this moment!
When Ogawada made a layup, the familiar red figure gritted his teeth and flew up again, desperately blocking this must-goal!
Fight!
I really tried my best!
After Sakuragi landed, he fell to the ground again, unable to get up!
But the Xiangbei team did not hesitate at all and launched a quick counterattack. This goal must be scored!
Miyagi held the ball and rushed towards Sanno's half as quickly as possible. Rukawa Kaede quickly responded. Just when everyone's attention in the Sanno team was attracted by Rukawa Kaede, Miyagi actually replicated Fukatsu's no-look pass. The ball is thrown directly towards the three-point line on the other side!
The man who never gives up...
The man whose physical strength has long been exhausted, but is already running on the field...
The man who saved Xiangbei and Shuihuo!
Hisashi Mitsui, caught the ball at the three-point line! !
"It's over!"
The members of the Sanno team immediately pounced, but Mitsui Hisashi's shot had already been taken. Matsumoto couldn't control his body and collided with Mitsui in the air, violating Mitsui's cylinder. This was a foul! !
And this three-pointer...
A wonderful arc slowly drew in the air...
Fall into the basket! !
