The Xiangbei High School basketball team is different from the famous basketball schools in Hainan and Xiangyang. There are not many new students joining the basketball team every year, and the quality of the players is also quite average.
After a training match, it's easy to tell how much the new players weigh.
Although he only played martial arts for half a game, his outstanding personal abilities have already left a deep impression on everyone.
At the end of the training match, all the players lined up on the court. Coach Anxi stood directly opposite the team, looked at the players, and announced:
"The training match ends here."
"I have already seen the abilities of the new players. Many new players have some basic skills, but the foundation is still relatively weak and they need more practice."
"Of course, there are also players who have performed well among the new players. I think everyone can see this."
When Coach Anzai said this, all eyes subconsciously looked towards the martial arts side. Mitsuyoshi Anzai seemed not to notice the gazes of the team members and continued:
"Jinguji Martial Arts-kun, your personal ability is very outstanding. From today on, you will be the official player of Shohoku."
"And Miyagi Ryota-san, you are also a member of Shohoku's official selection."
"For other players who have not been able to become regular players, I hope you can train hard in the future and keep up with the training pace of the senior players. As long as you train hard and your abilities improve, you will still have the opportunity to play in official games."
"Mitsui, arrange a jersey for Miyagi-san when the time comes."
After Anzai Mitsuyoshi finished speaking, he silently walked to the seat on the sidelines and sat down, vacating the seat for Mitsui Hisashi.
Mitsui Shou nodded, walked out of the queue, came to everyone, and said loudly:
"I think everyone knows in their hearts that our Shohoku High School basketball department is just a nobody in the country."
"Not to mention nationwide, even Kanagawa Prefecture and our Shohoku region are not ranked!"
"But this is absolutely no excuse for you to slack off."
"I am extremely convinced that our Xiangbei High School will be the strongest team in the county this year!"
"Our goal...is to dominate the country!"
"If any of you don't have this awareness, it's not too late to leave the basketball club now!"
"Because what you will face next will be hellish training!"
"Tell me, is anyone leaving?"
Although Mitsui Shou looks like a handsome young man, his words are sonorous and powerful. When the words "dominate the country" come out of his mouth, he is quite firm. It can be seen that Mitsui Shou has never doubted himself. , I have doubted whether my team has such strength.
Miyagi Ryota and other first-year students were somewhat affected by Mitsui Hisashi's words. Tsunoda Satoru and others clenched their fists, staring at Mitsui Hisashi who looked inspired, looking forward to the scene of dominating the country. How could they think of quitting? .
As for Jinguji Martial Arts, looking at Mitsui Hisashi speaking in front of the team, I secretly sighed in my heart that the high-spirited young man in front of me really hasn't changed at all!
...
Kamakura.
Lingnan High School is located on the seaside of Kamakura. The school is relatively remote. Most people who come to this school need to take the early morning train to get to the school on time.
The Lingnan High School Basketball Club's best results in recent years have only been the top eight in the county. The head coach of the Lingnan High School Basketball Department is Shigeichi Taoka, now 40 years old. He was a nationally famous basketball player when he was young. After retiring, he returned to his high school alma mater and served as the coach of the basketball team.
Coach Tian Gang, who has reached middle age, has always had a dream, or ambition, in his heart, which is to personally lead Lingnan High School to multiple national championships and complete the unfinished dream he had when he was young.
For this reason, whenever there is a junior high school competition, Coach Tian Gang will appear at the invitation seats of major competitions, looking for players who can help Lingnan High School win the championship. The scope of his search for players is not limited to the county, almost all He has appeared in all the strong basketball counties.
Maybe it’s because Lingnan’s previous results were not ideal, or maybe because Coach Tian Gang’s reputation is not famous enough. In the past, many invitations sent by Coach Tian Gang were rejected. After all his efforts, Many times it goes down the drain.
But fortunately, Huangtian paid off, and finally this year, Shigeichi Taoka's hard work came to fruition.
"Duang!
"
In the basketball court of Lingnan High School, a handsome young man soared into the air, received a pass from his teammates, and smashed the ball into the basket against Yuzumi's defense. A beautiful alley-oop slam dunk made the Lingnan arena instantly silent.
Shigeichi Taoka stood on the edge of the court. When he saw the young man dunking, his eyes widened, his fists clenched, and his face was full of excitement.
"The Immortal Way is well taught."
"I'll give you the ball for the next attack."
The boy who dunked jumped down with a smile on his handsome face. When he returned to defense, he came to the side of a spiky-headed boy and fist-bumped with him in celebration.
"No, I suddenly found that assisting feels very good. I don't know why. Seeing you receiving my pass and scoring the ball makes me feel more satisfied than scoring it myself."
"Tian Tian, continue to maintain this offensive rhythm, no need to change."
"The senior team can't stop us!"
Akira Sendō smiled gently and said while returning his defense.
"good!"
"But speaking of it, the senior players in Lingnan are really weak! Many of them are not even as good as my teammates at Yokota Middle School."
While returning to defense, Shinomiya turned his head, glanced at the scoreboard on the sidelines, and sighed.
While Xiangbei High School was having a practice match for freshmen, Lingnan High School was also having a practice match for freshmen. Just like the Xianghoku High School practice match, the game also presented a one-sided crushing situation, but the difference from Xianghoku was that the side being crushed was not a freshman.
At 63:24, the freshman team led by Shinomiya Tōno and Sendō Akira took a big lead. Only four or five minutes into the second half, the point difference had already widened to 39 points. The so-called freshman practice match was basically a senior team. The slaughterhouse of the team members.
"huh huh huh huh!"
"Shinomiya Tōno and Sendō are worthy of being the elites I personally selected. With the two of them joining Lingnan High School, it immediately became a strong team at the national level."
"If we train Yuzhu properly this year, won't we be able to win the county competition?!"
"Hey hey hey, do you want to have a 'friendly match' with Gao Tou and the others first? Let Gao Tou know the power of our Lingnan Double Star?"
Taoka Shigeichi stood on the sidelines, no one was talking to him, but he kept mumbling.
"No, no, no, we can't let them see it now, this is our Lingnan's secret weapon!"
"What if I get defensive in the future?"
"But we still have to play practice matches, who should we look for?"
Taoka Shigeru touched his chin, looking thoughtful. Suddenly, Taoka Shigeru's eyes lit up, as if he thought of something, his mouth widened, and he laughed "hiehiehie".
"Shobei, Mitsui Hisashi and Miyagi Ryota, who rejected me, both went to Shobei. Let these two boys see the strength of our Lingnan."
"Regret! Regret that we missed the national championship that was so easy to win, and the championship team. These two boys must be very sad!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
...
The day Jinguji Budo entered Shohoku High School, he successfully became a regular player, and his number in the team was the last number 15. And Ryota Miyagi, who is obviously a first-year player like Budo, accepted the jersey number, No. 7, from a third-year senior who resigned from the club this year.
As for Tsunoda Satoru and others who were in the same class as Budo and Miyagi, it is a pity that they are not qualified to receive the jersey.
Jinguji Budo started playing football at Shohoku High School. As Hisashi Mitsui said before in the team, the training at Shohoku High School is quite heavy. This kind of high-intensity training is completely inconsistent with the identity of the Shohoku Fish Belly team.
Although the training in Shohoku was led by Hisashi Mitsui, martial arts can still see the shadow of Anzai Mitsuyoshi's manipulation in these trainings. Because although the training in Xiangbei is arduous, it is not messy and includes all kinds of training. On the contrary, the training subjects are not only few, but also very basic.
Physical training, shooting training, dribbling and passing, basic running positions. In all training subjects, there is no advanced training method, it is monotonous and basic.
For martial arts, this kind of training can at best maintain one's own competitive state. The biggest role may be to practice the basic skills of martial arts. As for improving football skills? Not obvious.
Although its effect on martial arts is limited, it is quite useful to most people in Shohoku High School. Many of the old players in Shohoku and the new players who have joined Shohoku have very poor basic skills.
Takenori Akagi, who has just been promoted to high school this year, has made a huge improvement in dribbling compared to his first year, but it is not enough. Moreover, Takenori Akagi's shooting range is also very short, and shooting training is also very helpful to Takenori Akagi.
As for Miyagi Ryota, although he is very good at dribbling, his shooting is a mess. Corresponding training is also very helpful for him.
The rest of the players have their own shortcomings, and the training in Xiangbei is of great help to the players. Although martial arts has higher specialized training methods, they are not proposed rashly. The reason is also very simple, that is, the foundation of most people in Xiangbei is too poor and they are not suitable for advanced training methods.
A few, like Hisashi Mitsui, are no longer on the technical level, but on a deeper level, training related to talent development. But this kind of training is not suitable for the developing Mitsui Hisashi.
The training at Xianghoku High School may be the most helpful to martial arts team training. Building a tacit understanding among the players is very important for an inspiring team to compete for the championship.
"Miyagi, the pass is too high and it's uncomfortable to catch the ball."
On the court, everyone in Shohoku was having a practice match. Jinguji Budo received a pass from Ryota Miyagi outside the three-point line. When the basketball came into his hands, he immediately shouted.
"Ah?! How is that possible? You got the ball as soon as you stretched out your hand. Why is it so high? How could my pass be high?"
Miyagi Ryota was obviously quite confident in his passing. When he heard Budo's words, he immediately retorted dissatisfiedly. The practice match was also suspended because of the two people talking.
"I'm not used to it. I catch the ball outside the three-point line. My offensive intention is to break through and shoot a three-pointer. Whether it is a breakthrough or a three-pointer, the receiving position should be near the waist."
"In this way, I can quickly drop the ball when I break through. If I pull up, I can also lift the ball up from this position and shoot."
"But I raised my hands to catch the ball. If I wanted to shoot, I had to adjust my posture. There was no way to shoot the ball immediately."
"If you want to break through, you have to drop the ball from a high place to near your waist, which wastes time."
Jinguji Budo held the ball in both hands, and while talking, he demonstrated the movements for Miyagi Ryota. Miyagi Ryota watched from a distance as Budo demonstrated with the ball, and nodded silently.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Miyagi knew that Budo was right. Martial Arts is different from him. Because of his height, whether he catches the ball smoothly or not is directly related to whether his subsequent movements are fast enough. The efficiency of breakthroughs and shooting is often affected by this subtle difference.
The practice match continued with another round of offense. Budo occupied the inside line. Miyagi Ryota hit the ball to Budo's hands. Budo quickly raised the ball and scored with a small hook.
Although the ball was scored, Budo still came to Miyagi's side when he returned to the court and said: "Miyagi, the height of the pass this time is too low. If you lob the ball, I can hook the ball directly." Score the ball.”
"When playing positional warfare, if the situation allows, when you pass the ball, you can try to observe the players defending me, guess my possible attack method, and then choose the height of the pass."
Miyagi Ryota was obviously stunned when he heard this. It was the first time he heard that the person passing the ball needed to guess the offensive intentions of his teammates. Before that, Miyagi no Kai observed whether the defender could intercept his pass. His mind was only thinking about how to pass the ball smoothly, instead of thinking about where the receiver would be more likely to catch the ball. Good for offense.
Martial Arts' words seemed to open a door to a new world for Miyagi.
"Okay!" Miyagi Ryota nodded and responded directly. In the second half of the practice match, no matter who Miyagi Ryota is partnered with, he will always think about how to make the receiver comfortable and facilitate the offense.
While guessing the offensive intentions of his teammates, Miyagi more or less discovered the small movements of some teammates when breaking through or shooting. When he met these players in the practice match, Miyagi's role on the defensive end was significantly improved.
The Xiangbei players have entered the running-in period. As the training progresses, the lineup of the starting players becomes more and more clear. Although coach Anxi has never officially announced it, just looking at the team members' team competition, there are many more people. You can guess it.
There is no doubt that center Akagi Takenori, power forward Chiba Oishi has appeared on the court a lot, and the small forward is of course Jinguji Budo who has the most terrifying offensive performance. The martial arts scoring technique is fancy. In the eyes of many people, the martial arts The technology is even better than Hisashi Mitsui's.
The point guard is Hisashi Mitsui, and the point guard is Ryota Miyagi, who is also a freshman.
These five people are also the ones who have formed the team the most. One week after the start of school, during normal running training, these five people have become a completely finalized combination.
It is worth mentioning that on the second day of school, Shohoku High School welcomed the first beautiful manager in the history of the team. With the approval of Coach Anzai, Inoue Ayako also became a member of the Shohoku High School Basketball Department as the team manager. , appearing on the training ground during daily training.
Her arrival made the basketball department's training enthusiasm unprecedentedly high.
On Friday evening, after training, Coach Anzai announced to everyone that he would go to Kamakura's Reinan High School on Sunday to participate in a practice match.
