Chapter 310 The practice match in Xiangbei
The team practice match of Lennan High School is in full swing. After the first-grade and second- and third-grade players tied, the two sides fought back and forth for several rounds. And in these rounds, Yohei Mito's weakness was dug out by the senior team members.
Since Yangping faced the temporary stop-off of the grass, Tian Ye began to pay attention to Yangping's situation. Tian Ye also had speculations in his mind. After several rounds of verification, Tian Ye affirmed his guess.
Due to the short contact with basketball, Yohei Mito cannot make a major change in dribbling. That is to say, Yohei's dribbling is moving towards a straight line. This is really fatal for a player on the back line. Similarly, the questions of other first-year players have also begun to be exposed.
Sakuragi Hanado's physical fitness is indeed very strong, but his weaknesses are also very obvious. Sakuragi Hanado's scoring can only rely on two methods: breaking layups and slam dunks. Although Sakuragi Hanado's empty cut is pretty good, since it is the first time in the first grade, and the pick-and-roll is not good without the ball, so Hanado does not have many empty cut opportunities under Nan Lie's defense.
Moreover, Hanada's passing time is relatively narrow. If you have a teammate who has strong scoring ability in the inside, Hanada Sakuragi now has enough passing vision, but unfortunately, the first-grade players do not have strong inside, and the offense from the outside is almost stagnant.
Mito Yohei does not have offensive ability, and Aida Hikaru's shooting is very watery and he does not have much hit rate at all. The offenses of Kiritsugu Emiya and Oda Hashi are also quite unsatisfied. Their opponents' defenses are not very bad. In other words, for first-year players, these second-year players have very strong defenses, far from being comparable to ordinary middle school students.
The only advantage that the first-grade team has in this game is rebounding. Hanamichi Sakuragi, who is only 188cm, completely suppressed the 197cm Sugahei and 184cm Nan Lie. Hanamichi Sakuragi learned to use his brain to grab rebounds. He did not compete with Hanamichi and Nan Lie under the rebound, but used his explosive power and bounce power to grab rebounds.
With this move, the first-grade team led by Hanado Sakuragi was only less than 20 points behind after about 15 minutes of the game. Without Sakuragi's rebound guarantee, their first-grade losses would have been even more.
When the game was in the middle, Coach Tarooka actually roughly judged the strength of the players. In this way, he rotated the first-year players on the field. When Yohei, Sakuragi Hanamichi and others came out, Hanamichi was still talking about something in his mouth.
He played very frustrated in the practice game. Hanamichi Sakuragi, who was used to the help of powerful teammates of Yokota Middle School, suddenly had to take the lead alone and couldn't adapt. He played well on the defensive end, but he was restricted everywhere on the offensive end.
"It's okay, it's against the seniors in the second and third grades after all."
"Your abilities are already very good."
Coach Tarooka saw Sakuragi Hanado's unhappy expression and chuckled and comforted.
"Damn it!" Although Coach Tarooka comforted Sakuragi Hanamichi, it was useless, and Sakuragi Hanamichi still had a fire in his head.
The rotation on the other side of Tianye was also started. Sakuragi Hanamichi had already left the field, so there was no need to put Nan Lie on the field to put pressure on the opponent. After replacing Nan Lie, Tianye replaced other players.
"Sakuragi Hanamichi..."
"I need some new weapons after coming to Lingnan!"
Coach Tarooka sat back on the side of the court, holding a teacup and looking at the rest area with a sulky breath, thinking. It is true that there are actually no shortage of offensive players in Ryunan High School in Ryunan with Shimiyao, but overall, there are fewer players who can play offensively. Coach Tarooka hopes to increase offensive rotation players on the basis of strengthening defense.
After getting Coach Taoka after getting Sakuragi Hanamichi, his ambitions are also growing. Winning the national championship is only his initial goal, and his goal is to win the championship in a row!
Just as the team training match of Lingnan High School was in the final stage, a fierce practice match was also being held in the Xiangbei High School basketball hall in the distance.
Unlike Lingnan High School, Xiangbei’s practice competition can be said to be the elite players in grades 2 and 3.
For Xiangbei, this year is the new year for the basketball department. In addition to the ace player Rukawa Kaede from Toki Middle School, there is also the number one scorer Katsumiichiro of Takeshi Middle School. In addition to these two people, Oda Ryumasato Oda, the basketball team captain of Wakatsu Middle School, has also joined the basketball team of Shokuro High School.
The first-grade team of Xiangbei cannot be underestimated. With the second-grade players of Xiangbei, those people cannot be suppressed. Although the center Oda is only 184cm, his basketball skills are far superior to Emperor Kakuda. When Emperor Kakuda plays center, he was completely defeated by Oda Ryumasa.
Mitsui Shou knew that he was very strong in the first grade this year, but he didn't expect that the first grade was so strong. In order not to be embarrassed, he, Akagi Takaki and Mu Mu Gongyan had to play. Originally, the third grade players were able to quickly defeat the first grade players after joining, but unexpectedly, the game situation was in a state of anxiety.
"Duang!!!" Rukawa Kaede performed a man-pointer in front of Muru Kwangen, and before Akagi could even go back and forth to defend, he made a dunk. After the game was 23 minutes, Rukawa Kaede scored his 18th point.
Their main scores in the first grade were concentrated on Rukawa Kaede and Katsumiichiro. Oda Ryumasa could only steal shots under the defense of Takaki Akagi, and his offensive efficiency was not as good as the other two, but his performance was also very outstanding. He was clearly at the center position, but his footsteps were very flexible.
In terms of technology alone, Oda Ryumasa's skills are more delicate than Akagi, but their physical fitness is more than Akagi. The scores of the two teams once reached 38:33, and the first-grade team was only 5 points behind.
"Hey! Be cheer up, don't look down on the first-grade team members!"
When Mitsui Shou saw Mu Mu-Kunyan's movement slow down, he probably lost confidence by being beaten by Rukawa Kaede. However, he could not name him and said Mu Mu-Kunyan because that would hurt the self-esteem of his own players and also damage the majesty of the third-grade players. Therefore, Mitsui Shou faced all the players when he said this.
"It's worthy of Rukawa Kaede, even when facing the third-grade seniors, it's easy to play."
Katsumiichiro is the scoring champion of the strong national middle school team, and he also knows Rukawa Kaede. Now even if he is playing in the same team as Rukawa Kaede, he still has the intention of comparing Rukawa Kaede in his heart.
"I can't lose to him!" Katsumiichiro thought of this, and his eyes looked at Mitsui Shou who looked at the attack became hot! That was the player he admired the most, and also the player he wanted to defeat the most. Perhaps only people of the same kind can understand such emotions.
"Miyogi!" After Mitsui Shou entered the front court, he used the alternating running position with Ki Mu Gongyan to get an open position, cut into the inside line, and reached out to ask Miyagi Liangda for the ball.
The first-year player who defended Miyagi quickly made up and tried to cut off Miyagi's passing route, but just as he left his defensive position, Miyagi Lianga directly pulled out the jump shot outside the three-point line. The basketball leaped over everyone and entered the net directly.
"Swish!"
Miyagi Liangda, who shot the shot, imitated Mitsui Ho's shooting posture, and his wrist pressing gesture remained there without moving until the voice of Ayako's encouragement sounded from the sidelines before he let it go.
"Good ball! Miyagi!" Listening to Ayagi's encouragement, Miyagi Ryota ran back to the field with a red face and stared at Ayagi.
The score has reached 41:33.
Rukawa Kaede looked at the scoreboard, closed her eyes slightly, and focused her attention before starting the attack! He already knew the strength of the third-grade players. He now had to use his full strength! For Mitsui Shou, Rukawa Kaede has long been revered for daimyo. When he was a first-year junior high school student, he had heard of Mitsui Shou's name.
Now that he has the opportunity to fight with such a master, Rukawa Kaede's heart has become hot.
