Time flew by like a flash, and five days passed quickly.
On this day, the Kanagawa Prefecture Central Gymnasium was filled with cheers because the match between Xiangyang and Tsukutake had just ended here.
In this game, Xiangyang defeated Tsukutake without any surprise and won easily.
The audience did not leave because the second game was about to be played soon, which was Lingnan VS Hainan.
Due to Uozumi's continuous high-profile performance and the popularity of King Hainan itself, this game was naturally welcomed by the audience.
Before the game started, supporters of the two teams began to hold banners for their favorite teams and players.
Judging from the number, those who support Hainan account for the majority.
There is no way, Hainan has dominated Kanagawa Prefecture for 14 consecutive years and is definitely the most popular team in Kanagawa Prefecture.
However, Lingnan's momentum is not low, but many of them are just cheering for Yuzhu.
At this time, the staff of the two teams began to fix the team's battle flags on the stands, which were Lingnan's 'brave and courageous' and Hainan's 'constant victory'.
No surprise, Uozumi's father and cousin came to the scene again. Their flag had a brand new look. It read 'Chief Center - Monster Uozumi', and of course there was an advertisement for Uozumi's restaurant below.
In addition, Xiangyang and Tsujiuwu also had a tacit understanding and did not leave.
There are also some familiar faces, such as Takenori Akagi, Hisashi Mitsui, Mugure, Haruko, Tetsuya Naito, etc.
The reason why Haruko came here was not only because Uozumi continuously performed brilliantly, but also because Uozumi taught her basketball skills from time to time.
So after learning that there was a match between Lingnan and Hainan today, Qingzi immediately followed her brother to the scene to watch.
Not long after, the two teams entered the competition venue through the player tunnel. When they appeared, the atmosphere in the stadium instantly rose, obviously raising a level.
"Takamiya Motoyu, you are the strongest!"
"Monster Yuzhu, kill Hainan!"
"King Hainan!"
…
Judging from the momentum of the two teams, Lingnan cannot catch up with Hainan.
However, there is not much difference in the reputation of the representative players of the two teams. Uozumi's continuous high-profile performance has naturally earned him a large number of fans.
While warming up, Uozumi couldn't help but glance at the data panel.
Name: Uozumi·Jun
Age:16
Height:200cm/203cm
Wingspan:210cm/213cm
Weight:91kg
physical fitness
Strength: 98/100, Speed: 72/80, Jump: 67/73, Physical fitness: 89/91, Flexibility: 61/64
offensive skills
Close shot: 82/85, mid-range shot: 51/68, three-point shot: 14/52, ball control: 61/66, organization: 55/78, post-up play: 88/93
defensive skills
Individual defense: 87/93, assist defense: 70/75, rebounds: 94/96, steals: 61/68, blocks: 96/99
Potential points: 0
After five days of hard training, Yuzhu's strength has improved more or less.
However, data cannot fully measure the strength of Yuzhu.
Due to his previous life experience, he has far more game experience than other players on the court and possesses adept inside skills that are not recorded on the data panel.
This also means that Yuzhu’s strength cannot be completely measured by data panels.
Bang~
Suddenly, a strong sound of exploding baskets sounded.
Uozumi turned around and saw Ikeda Kazuhiro holding the basket with both hands, and the basket couldn't help but bend.
Wow~Wow~
This naturally attracted the attention of the audience, and many audience members began to actively cheer for him.
Ikeda Kazuhiro was very proud, and after realizing that Uozumi was looking at him, he couldn't help but smile provocatively.
"Yuzhu, want one?"
Ozawa Yusaku also saw Ikeda and Hiro's provocation towards Uozumi and hurriedly came over.
Yuzhu did not refuse. In order to avoid damaging his morale, he had no reason to avoid the battle.
Without hesitation, Uozumi quickly rushed to the basket.
Ozawa Yusaku threw the basketball, Uozumi took off, grabbed the basketball, and poured the ball into the basket with both hands. The whole process was completed in one go.
Bang~
Regardless of sound, momentum or stretchability, Uozumi is stronger than Ikeda Kazuhiro, and the rim is even pulled into a big arc by him.
In the process of improving speed and flexibility, his explosive power also received certain help.
Ikeda and Hiro had dark faces and did not continue to respond.
"I won't believe that I won't be able to beat you if you look good in the competition."
Kazuhiro Ikeda also wants to compete for the title of chief center, but at the center position, his momentum has always been ranked lower than Uozumi and Masao Watanabe.
This game is undoubtedly an opportunity for him to prove himself.
Not long after, the warm-up was over.
The two sides began to send out their starting lineups, and Lingnan's lineup changed. Ikegami replaced Sasaki Oribe in the starting lineup.
Coach Taoka did this mainly because Sasaki Oribe was no match for Hainan captain Takamiya Motou.
Instead of Sasaki Oribe being abused, it is better to let Ikegami try it, maybe it will be miraculous, not to mention Ikegami's recent performance can also be worthy of starting the team.
Hainan team
Center: Kazuhiro Ikeda, 198cm, 90kg, third grade
Ohmae: Kurakimine, 188 cm, 81 kg, second grade
Komae: Takamiya Moto, 185 cm, 77 kg, third grade
Shooting Guard: Keisuke Ishida, 178cm, 73kg, sophomore
Point guard: Mu Shenyi, 180cm, 77kg, first grade
Among them, Kazuhiro Ikeda is one of the top three centers in Kanagawa Prefecture, and his style is very similar to Uozumi in the original work.
Kurakamine is a power forward who focuses on defense and rebounding, more like Muto Masaru two years later.
Takamiya Motoyu is the core of Hainan and was the MVP of the last county competition. He has a strong body and a wealth of offensive skills. His four consecutive 30+ scoring records are his masterpiece.
Ishida Soyu is a defensive hero, and is used by coach Gao Tou to restrict Lingnan team captain Ozawa Yusaku.
Not to mention Mu Shenyi, he has a strong body, is not afraid of confrontation, and likes to use his physical fitness to defeat his opponents.
This year in Kanagawa Prefecture, due to the continuous emergence of powerful freshmen, some basketball enthusiasts specially ranked these freshmen. Among them, the strongest four are even called the "Kanagawa Future Four". They are Uozumi, Maki Shinichi, and Fuji. Kenji Makoto and Hisashi Mitsui.
Before the game started, players from both teams looked at each other.
Yuzhu silently compared the personal strength of the players from both sides. From the perspective of the lineup, Hainan undoubtedly has the advantage.
At the center position, Uozumi has a high probability of suppressing Ikeda Kazuhiro.
Power forwards are all blue-collar and half-assed.
Small forward Ikegami is definitely not as good as Takamiya Motoyu. I hope he will not be tortured too badly. If he can be slightly restricted, it will be a victory.
The dividing guard is undoubtedly a confrontation between spear and shield. It is hard to say who will win and who will lose.
Not to mention the point guard, Matsushita Asahi Ken may not be as strong as Miyagi Ryota, and is definitely no match for Mu Shinichi, even if this is a young Mu.
No matter how you look at it, Hainan's lineup must be higher than Lingnan's.
