Chapter 58 - Chapter 58: Beating Up Hayama Kotarō

"Hayama, you guys are finished!"

Yuuto left these words and his body rushed out like a sharp sword again.

Possessing memories of future basketball, personally witnessing basketball development and progress.

Yuuto's view of basketball has a gap of more than ten years with this era.

In basketball of this era, everyone still likes to prepare a big center for the team to grind set offense, to wrestle, to grab rebounds.

But Yuuto had long transformed Homi Academy into a team good at playing counterattacks.

As long as they are fast enough, they can form a local numerical advantage of many against few. This can greatly improve the team's scoring efficiency while weakening the defensive pressure brought by big centers.

In the world of soccer, there has always been talk about "time" and "space."

This is also true in basketball games.

Time.

Is a rhythm of fast and slow.

For example, if your pass can always be one step ahead of the opponent's defense, then your team can get better scoring opportunities.

Space is also not hard to understand.

Whether it's the Warriors' elevator door tactic in the future or the Cavaliers' one-star-four-shooters tactic.

What they pursue is better shooting opportunities, distracting the opponent's defense through running or passing, finding that open opportunity; this is the use of space.

But unlike soccer, the activity range of basketball is smaller, and the opponent's reaction will be faster.

Therefore.

It is not easy to achieve this.

Yuuto is obviously a player very good at using time and space.

Frontcourt 3 on 2.

Yuuto used his deterrent power to attract one defender, and two other teammates plugged in simultaneously.

At this time, the remaining one person from Tōhō didn't know what to do at all.

Yuuto immediately changed his viewpoint, looking down at the court with Eagle Eye, and smashed the ball out forcefully.

Smack!

The ball arrived in the hands of the teammate cutting to the basket, who completed this counterattack with a layup.

The scene boiled over; Tochigi Prefecture fans shouted loudly.

Still Tōhō's round.

They continued to try undyingly; maybe it was just good luck before?

He can't possibly see through our actions every time, right?

If it were before, Yuuto indeed couldn't guarantee seeing through every time.

But with the acquisition of the Eagle Eye talent, he can easily find that "mouse" of Tōhō.

In the stands.

The audience only saw Tōhō pulling Homi Academy's defense line with complex running.

And before they launched the offensive, Yuuto's finger pointed out in advance.

This time it's the position of the paint!

Seeing this, Ota pounced to defend without hesitation. As the opponent's center cut down to receive the ball and jump, Ota delivered a key hot pot (block).

"Finger of God! It's the Finger of God again! Yuuto completely saw through Tōhō. He is like a great chess player controlling the chessboard; one move turns Tōhō's efforts into ashes!"

The Tochigi Prefecture commentator was extremely excited.

Yuuto saw through the opponent, and Homi Academy teammates trusted him 100%.

They seemed to have completely controlled the court.

"How on earth is this done?" Kise Ryōta in the stands was dumbfounded.

He felt Yuuto's finger was very cool, but the problem was he couldn't learn it at all, nor could he imitate it.

"Interpreting the opponent's intent from a macro perspective, the brain simulates all the opponent's action routes in advance. This is not something that can be mastered through imitation." Akashi told Kise to give up this thought early.

This is the embodiment of basketball IQ, unrelated to technique.

Of course, it is inseparable from a pair of eyes that can find that mouse.

Akashi stared at Yuuto's eyes, attempting to get some information from them. But the Emperor Eye is not the Eye of God; he could only turn his head to look at Momoi Satsuki.

"In your intelligence, there is no information about Yuuto possessing vision-related talents."

Hearing this, Momoi Satsuki also looked a bit distressed.

"Ah-Yu didn't show such talents in previous games."

"Is that so? I understand."

Akashi didn't blame Momoi Satsuki for ineffective work.

After all, they are geniuses of this level; it's too normal that Momoi Satsuki can't see through them.

"Truly a boy who keeps people guessing, but this is better." Momoi Satsuki smiled again.

She began to look forward to what other "secrets" Yuuto was hiding.

"Hand of God, no, Finger of God, sugoi!"

"Yuuto, pride of Okukozome!"

"I thought he was flinging his finger around to do something, turned out to be like this; Tōhō's brats are about to cry!"

"How exactly did he do it!"

"Yuuto knows every move of Tōhō clearly. With Yuuto, maybe we can really win till the end."

"This is Homi Academy's strength!"

"Bullshit, this is Yuuto's strength; he activated Homi Academy!"

"..."

Fans didn't care so much. Every time Yuuto beat up the opponent, they would cheer for him loudly.

Ota, Sakurai Ryō, and others all gained some stats in steals and blocks.

But the applause on the scene belonged only to Yuuto.

His finger was simply too soulful. Every time Tōhō saw him raise his finger, they would tremble with fear, hesitating whether to pass.

The head coach knew it was over as soon as he saw this situation.

The team ace was blown out in the matchup, tactics were seen through, and players were terrified to the point of not daring to execute his tactical deployment.

What the hell is the point of playing this game?

Yuuto's "Finger of God" successfully made Tōhō miserable.

Included Teiko's head coach, but Akashi reassured him.

"No need to worry, Coach. Just play according to our rhythm. Teiko doesn't need tactics because the five of us are the best tactic."

Yes.

Teiko doesn't need to worry at all; Teiko won't fail.

The best players are in their array.

Yuuto's Hand of God has no meaning to them.

The first quarter ended.

Homi Academy established a huge 15-point advantage.

Throughout the first quarter, Tōhō's players could only score through difficult shots.

This is the sequelae produced by tactics being seen through.

They couldn't get excellent shooting opportunities and could only use individual ability to solve problems.

This is a method of last resort, but Tōhō has no choice now.

Because all their roads are blocked.

Second quarter.

Hayama Kotarō strengthened his personal offense.

He received strict defense from Yuuto, tangled uncomfortably by the Death Coil.

Hayama scored some goals and got some points, but the efficiency was only a pitiful 31%.

When your franchise star plays such a shooting percentage and other teammates cannot step forward.

Then the result of this game is not hard to guess at all.

Hayama Kotarō experienced the feeling of Yuuto playing against Teiko in the simulation.

He exchanged high shot attempts for points but couldn't lead the team to win the game.
