The game was still going on, and the Xiangyang team's offense was more or less hindered, especially the two insiders who were obviously restricted.

Regardless of Hanagata or Kishimoto, they both have top player standards and are very rare in the country.

Unfortunately, their opponent was Uozumi + Naito. No matter whether they were attacking or defending, they could only be defeated.

Plus, they can't guarantee rebounds.

Compared with the inside combination of Sanno's Ohda and Masahiro Nobe, Shoyang's two inside players are much inferior in terms of confrontation ability, positioning skills and rebounding sense. Lingnan's rebounding advantage is very obvious.

Therefore, on the offensive end, Lingnan players played very decisively.

Even if the shot is not made, there is a high probability that Lingnan will grab the offensive rebound.

Over time, the gap between the two sides began to widen.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Coach Kitano quickly called a timeout.

He knew very well that if it continued, it would be very detrimental to Xiangyang.

However, he has no other way. The best way is to increase the thickness of the inner line.

As a last resort, coach Kitano had to replace the underperforming Kishimoto with Takano, and Takano played center.

In the recent time, Kishimoto was brutally beaten by Naito. He was restricted by Naito on the offensive end, and he couldn't restrict Naito's performance on the defensive end, so he was brutally beaten by Naito.

Compared with Naito, Kishimoto seems too 'thin' and cannot restrain Naito at all.

Naito often only needs to arch and squeeze to get an opportunity to score easily.

Instead of doing this, it is better to go to the high field to improve the team's rebounding disadvantage.

As Takano came on the field, Hanagata was visibly relieved, as long as he didn't play center.

Although Naito is also very strong, he can't compare with Uozumi at all. Moreover, Hanagata is full of confidence and believes that even in the worst case, they can achieve mutual destruction.

Compared with Kishimoto, Hanagata's style of play is more deviated from the inside and is more difficult to defend.

A 197-centimeter player plays a fadeaway jumper, and the Golden Rooster is independent. This is an almost unsolvable style of play, and I am afraid that only fish in the country can restrict it.

This is indeed the case. Not only was Naito unable to limit Hanagata's performance, but he was continuously fouled by Hanagata.

In less than ten minutes, Naito committed two offenses.

Of course, on the defensive end, the flower shape cannot limit Naito's performance.

In addition, thanks to Takano playing and Hanagata and Hasegawa fighting hard, Xiangyang's rebounding has improved, but it is still not as good as Lingnan.

"Naito, let's switch defense!"

Uozumi is very helpless. If it continues, Naito may have to complete the achievement of leaving the game with five fouls in this game.

No matter what, we must keep Naito.

Naito didn't object, he knew that Uozumi was doing this for his own good.

As the two men switched defenses, Hanagata was once again on the losing end.

On the offensive end, the flower shape was severely restricted by Yuzhu.

On the defensive end, Hanagata couldn't stop Naito's impact, let alone how miserable it was.

As for his inside partner Takano, he is just a blue-collar guy, so don't count too much on him.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Fujima and Nanlie began to increase their offensive intensity, and the frequency of three-pointers increased significantly.

They felt quite hot and finally stopped falling behind.

Just trying to recover the points difference, it is still difficult to make any progress.

It must be said that Lingnan's ability to restrain Xiangyang was not just talk.

Not only were the run-and-gun tactics limited, but both offense and defense inside were completely destroyed, not to mention how miserable it was.

That is to say, Fujima and others relied on their fiery touch to stop the decline, but once the touch was gone, the consequences would be absolutely disastrous.

Coach Kitano saw it and was anxious in his heart.

As a last resort, he even sent out a lineup of four senior men.

With the lineup of four long men, the defense is indeed much stronger, and there is no need to worry about rebounding.

Unfortunately, the four long-man lineup also has a fatal flaw, that is, the offense is not very powerful.

Whether it is Takano, Nagano or Hasegawa, they all lack offensive skills and have short shooting distance, which leads to the offensive end relying too much on Fujima and Hanagata.

However, Hanagata was restricted by Uozumi again and could only rely on Fujima to shoulder the heavy responsibility on the offensive end.

Fujima's offensive explosiveness is indeed excellent, but it is difficult to maintain for a long time.

When Fujima needed to take a breather, the other Shoyo players were unable to provide support.

This is the current situation of the four major lineups!

In this case, Coach Kitano can only send out the starting lineup again.

However, facing Lingnan like this, he was still powerless. He was suppressed on the scene and showed no signs of turning around.

By the time halftime ended, the two sides had opened up a 15-point gap.

Huhu~

During the intermission, Fujima was breathing heavily and wiping sweat with a towel, with a look of exhaustion inevitably showing on his face.

In the first half, Fujima scored 27 points, more than half of the Shoyo team's score.

That's all. Yesterday, they experienced a fierce battle. Fujima played almost the entire game, so it is reasonable to encounter a physical crisis.

Compared with Xiangyang, Lingnan's physical reserves are obviously more advantageous. After all, they did not play the entire game against Sanwang.

On the side, Hanagata rubbed his chest, waist and back from time to time, and fought with Uozumi for half a game. Naturally, he suffered a lot. He was covered in bruises and bruises, not to mention how uncomfortable he was.

As for the other players, they all shook their heads.

Kishimoto was suppressed by Naito, and Nanretsu was blocked by Ikegami.

For Ikegami, compared with Zebei and Kashima Fengshuang, Nanlie's offense is inferior by more than one level.

Not to mention these two people, who among Morohoshidai, Amu, Mitsui, Fujima, and Minoru Matsumoto is not better than him.

This is also related to Nan Lie's physical fitness. His physical fitness can only be regarded as an upper-middle level.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Nanlie to be blocked by Chishang.

It was precisely because his teammates were not very good and his tactics were restrained that Fujima fought so hard.

Compared with Xiangyang, the atmosphere in Lingnan is obviously much more relaxed.

However, Uozumi has never underestimated Xiangyang. As usual, he began to eat Brazilian bananas to replenish his physical strength and improve his condition.

After ten minutes, the halftime break ends and the second half begins.

Lingnan once again sent out the starting lineup. Coach Tian Gang's idea was very simple, that is, to defeat Xiangyang in one go, and it would be best to further expand the point difference in a short period of time.

On the other side, Xiangyang also sent out the starting lineup.

Judging from the spirit of the players from both teams, the Lingnan players are in high spirits and look significantly better. On the other hand, the Xiangyang players look a little sluggish and not in very good condition.

After the start of the second half, just like the first half, Yu stayed on the offensive end and continued paddling, mainly assisting his teammates.

In the first half, Yuzhu had 12 assists, hoping to break the single-game assist record in the Winter National Series.
Chapter completed!
