I have to say that the schedule of the joint finals is very confusing, and I don’t know what the organizing committee is thinking about it.
After the first game ends, the second game will start a week later, and the third game will start immediately after the second game.
In other words, there is no gap between the second and third games.
However, if you observe carefully, you will find that all three games are held on weekends. It is no wonder that the county competition organizing committee has arranged it this way.
"Here are your statistics!"
After the game, Harukami Liting handed the statistics list to coach Tian Gang.
This time, Yuzhu got three highs, with the highest scores, rebounds and blocks in the game.
His statistics are 37 points, 14 rebounds and 6 blocks. This is also Yuzhu's third consecutive game with 30+ points.
Although Ikeda Kazuhiro was suppressed by him, it still caused him some troubles, such as rebounds. Without Ikeda Kazuhiro, Uozumi would definitely be able to get more rebounds and save a lot of energy.
At the same time, Uozumi also became the best player in this game.
Unfortunately, there is no potential point reward!
"The opponent in the next game is Tsukutake. The highest 'altitude' of this team is only 185 centimeters. It is a good opportunity to output rebounds. I wonder if there will be any reward for breaking the single-game rebound record again?"
Yuzhu secretly thought, facing a small and fast team like Tsujiutake, as long as he can keep up with the opponent's fast break rhythm, there will definitely be no shortage of rebounds.
Unless Tsukutake feels very good, this must be a good opportunity to break the single-game rebound record.
However, Yuzhu still has some worries.
Even if Lingnan defeated Hainan, both sides would suffer losses. Ozawa Yusaku and Sasaki Oribe still need to conduct further inspections.
But judging from the current situation, the two are likely to miss the next two games.
Among them, Sasaki Oribe can be said to be completely replaced by Ikegami.
Ozawa Yusaku is different. He is Lingnan's captain and outside core, so one can imagine his importance to Lingnan.
Without Yusaku Ozawa, the Lingnan team's offense will inevitably drop to a lower level.
At this period, Lingnan did not have offensive players like Sendō and Fukuda, and there were no outside players to replace Yusaku Ozawa.
To make up for the lack of Yusaku Ozawa, other players must share the offensive pressure, but it is very difficult.
"Everyone has worked hard. To celebrate defeating the king Hainan. I have applied to the school to give you a day off."
Coach Tian Gang's face was filled with a smile from the bottom of his heart, and his mood was not generally good.
After ten years of waiting, he finally led Lingnan to defeat the king Hainan.
Thinking of Coach Gao Tou's bad face when he left, Coach Tian Gang couldn't help but feel better.
"Long live the coach!"
As soon as they heard that there would be no classes tomorrow, the Lingnan players present were immediately delighted.
I don’t know who took the lead. Amid coach Tian Gang’s exclamations, the Lingnan players lifted him up and threw him high.
"Put me down quickly!"
Following Coach Tianoka's exclamation, the Lingnan players rarely obeyed his order and continued to throw.
It wasn't until a long time later that Coach Tianoka was finally let go.
Soon, coach Tian Gang disbanded the Lingnan team.
Uozumi went home straight away and found that his restaurant's business was very good. This time period was obviously not the peak dining period, but it was still packed with people.
When Yuzhu showed up, many guests took the initiative to say hello to him.
It is obvious that most of the guests come here because of its reputation.
Uozumi·Rong’s advertisement is quite insightful.
Seeing that the business of the restaurant was very good, Yuzhu subconsciously wanted to help.
Uozumi Rong quickly stopped Uozumi and said: "Ah Chun, it's enough to have us here. Your first goal now is to lead the team to get a spot in the national competition!"
In order to avoid putting too much pressure on Uozumi, Uozumi Rong did not mention the county competition champion.
Even if he is a layman, he also knows the difficulty involved. After all, this Lingnan team is not complete.
It might be okay to face Tsukumu, but if it is the Xiangyang team, it will be very difficult.
"Father, I understand."
Yuzhu did not refuse, not to mention that he also had to prepare for the next game.
"By the way, Ah Chun, if you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. It's time to change your sneakers. I don't want to see you playing in a pair of sneakers that almost expose your toes."
As Uozumi Rong spoke, he generously took out a dozen large-denomination banknotes from the drawer and handed them to Uozumi.
What he said was true, just a little exaggerated.
Because Uozumi trains too hard and plays fierce games, his sneakers have already suffered a lot of wear and tear, and the uppers of his sneakers are even slightly damaged.
Naturally, Uozumi did not refuse and decided to buy shoes according to the order.
"Yuzhu, I happen to sell sneakers. Why don't you come and visit my store?"
Suddenly, an unexpected voice sounded at the door of the store.
Uozumi turned around and saw that the other person was a middle-aged man with a medium build and a mustache, and he was pushing a bicycle.
When he saw the other party's appearance, Yuzhu couldn't help being slightly startled.
He immediately recognized the other party. This was the mustachioed store manager who was often blackmailed by Sakuragi Hanamichi.
Sakuragi Hanamichi 'bought' two pairs of sneakers from the mustache store manager at prices of 30 yen and 100 yen, one of which was a limited edition.
There is no doubt that the mustache store manager is a generous boss, otherwise Sakuragi Hanamichi would not have taken away such precious sneakers.
"The relationship is good, let's go now?"
Naturally, Uozumi did not refuse. The mustache store manager was very knowledgeable about sneakers and believed that he could match him a pair of sneakers that suited him.
"Well, let's go now, but it's a little far from here."
The mustachioed store manager touched the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed.
He goes to watch the county competition joint final every year, and this year is no exception.
After seeing Uozumi's outstanding performance, the mustache manager was immediately shocked, and even more happy for Hainan's defeat, so he made a special trip to Uozumi Restaurant to celebrate.
The reason why the mustache store manager was happy about Hainan's defeat was because he represented the Minawa High School basketball team in the Kanagawa Prefecture competition in high school and even reached the semi-finals.
In a fierce match between Minun High School and Hainan Affiliated High School, the mustache store manager missed a key goal and lost, leaving the biggest regret in his youth.
This is also the reason why he goes to watch the league finals every year. In addition to loving basketball, he also cherishes the memory of his youth.
"Then let's go riding bikes!"
Uozumi pushed out his bicycle, stuck the basketball in his hand on the frame, and rode with the mustache store manager in the direction of Shohoku University.
"After this alley, there is the business district, and my store is right there!"
After half an hour passed, the mustache store manager led Yuzhu into an alley.
Suddenly, the mustache store manager stopped.
Yuzhu couldn't help but asked strangely: "What's wrong?"
"There's a fight going on in front. There's a lot of people there. Let's go around."
The mustache store manager made a suggestion.
