Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium.
Basketball hall.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were as if under a spell, fixed on the flashing electronic scoreboard.
The bright red score seemed to have a mysterious and irresistible magic, like an ancient seal, tightly locking everyone's mouths, making them unable to utter even the slightest sound. The entire stadium fell into deathly silence.
The Dream Team's original huge lead of 7 points disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, like a wisp of smoke swept away by a gust of wind.
This result was like a bolt from the blue, catching everyone present off guard.
Their faces were filled with shock and confusion, as if they were still immersed in the joy of the Dream Team's previous lead and unable to accept this sudden change.
The Dream Team's rest area.
It is also terribly quiet here at this moment, you can hear a pin drop.
"this……"
Reiko Aida's beautiful face was full of astonishment. Her eyes were staring at the score on the electronic scoreboard, a little dazed.
Her heart was full of doubts and confusion, as if she was questioning her fate.
Why are we ahead by so many points?
How come it disappeared in the blink of an eye?
Tao Jing Satsuki stood aside, also shocked by this sudden change, and for a moment she didn't know what to say to break the suffocating silence.
Aida Katsuyori's brows were furrowed into a deep "川" shape, and a hint of worry appeared on his serious face.
He never imagined that the situation would change so drastically in such a short period of time. At the critical moment when the game was about to end, the Jabberwock team actually miraculously equalized the score.
It all seemed like an absurd dream, which made people feel extremely outrageous.
However, the cold facts were as clear as the numbers on the dazzling electronic scoreboard, lying before his eyes, leaving him no room for any doubt.
Aida Katsuyora took a deep breath and spoke solemnly.
"I didn't expect the other party to be able to do this, and more importantly, they actually succeeded. This makes things tricky."
Kagami's fiery gaze slowly moved to the electronic scoreboard, and when he saw that there were only 12 seconds left, he said subconsciously.
"Their shots are all good. If they make this free throw, the game will be tied. The remaining time is enough for us to score one more goal."
Although there was still a hint of luck and expectation in his words, the slightly trembling voice exposed his inner nervousness and anxiety.
"No……"
Kuroko calmly interjected at this time, his eyes deep and sharp, as if he could see through the conspiracy hidden behind this seemingly simple free throw.
"If the free throw hadn't gone in..."
He did not continue speaking, but the unfinished words were like an invisible hand, tightly grasping the hearts of everyone present.
"That's right."
Aida Reiko nodded and said in agreement.
"They're going to miss free throws on purpose and then go for the rebound and catch us off guard."
Her analysis made everyone's hearts sink, as if they saw a horrible picture: after the Jabberwock team missed the free throw, they scrambled for the rebound like a pack of hungry wolves, and then quickly launched a fatal blow, while the Dream Team fell into chaos under this sudden attack and eventually lost the game.
ah?
The Fire God's eyes gradually widened, and he suddenly figured out the key. The look that originally contained a glimmer of hope disappeared in an instant.
"In this case, wouldn't that mean..."
Taoi Satsuki said with a serious face.
"If they succeed, we will fall behind by one point. If they score in a short time, it's fine. But if they deliberately delay the game, we won't have enough time to counterattack, and we will most likely lose the game."
Her words were like cold rain, mercilessly extinguishing the last glimmer of hope in everyone's hearts, leaving the entire rest area shrouded in a haze of despair.
hateful……
The God of Fire clenched his fists in annoyance, veins bulged on his arms, and his face was full of unwillingness, as if he wanted to destroy everything in front of him.
"Doesn't this mean that we have been controlled by the other party?"
His roar echoed in the rest area, but it could not change the cruel reality before him.
For a moment, the entire Dream Team rest area fell into a depressing silence. The silence was like a heavy lead block, making it difficult for everyone to breathe.
"Is the situation so serious?"
Jiuchuan heard their speculation and said with some doubt.
A cold white light flashed across the gold-rimmed lenses of Hanafeng's glasses. He raised his head slightly and then commented calmly.
"That Nash is indeed a remarkable man."
ah?
When Jiuchuan heard Hua Teng say this, he immediately became unwilling.
"Hanato, he's our rival! Why are you still praising him?"
There was a hint of coquetry and complaint in his voice, as if he was blaming Hua Teng for "betrayal".
Shenmen knocked Jiuchuan's head helplessly, and then said.
"It is also a must for a good basketball player to evaluate his opponent honestly without any personal emotions. Although he is an opponent, as a player, Nash is really amazing. He can turn the situation around in one breath in a difficult situation. This is not something that ordinary people can do."
