Coach Kitano!
Looking at the cheerful old man, Yuzhu recognized him immediately.
Ikegami seemed to see Uozumi's doubts and couldn't help but said: "Some time ago, the Xiangyang school committee finally made a decision. They finally chose Fujima and coach Kaneda was fired.
It seems like three or four days ago, Xiangyang invited over Coach Kitano, who had just been dismissed by Toyotama. "
During this time, Yuzhu focused exclusively on training and ignored a lot of external information.
"I have to say that Xiangyang made a right decision!"
Uozumi couldn't help but sigh, to be honest, Coach Kaneda is not a qualified coach.
Xiangyang's achievements are not only due to good luck, but also because Xiangyang is at his peak.
As for Coach Kitano, his bombardment tactics are very suitable for the current Xiangyang, and can even be seamlessly connected.
During this period, Xiangyang was not the four-strong lineup of the drama years, but was famous for his quick and easy moves.
It's just that the level of coach Jintian is limited and he has not fully unleashed the potential of this Xiangyang team. Otherwise, it would not have been defeated by the Hainan Affiliated Middle School that suffered a heavy loss in the county competition.
In addition, Coach Kaneda values senior players, especially third-year players.
Coach Kitano is just the opposite. As long as he is a player who fits the tactical system, he will give him enough trust.
The Xiangyang team has many high-quality junior players, especially the four senior players in the drama year.
With Coach Kitano at the helm, I believe the Shoyo team can go even further.
Uozumi suddenly remembered something and asked: "Where are Nanlie and Kishimoto?"
If Nan Lie and Kishimoto transfer to Shoyang, the strength of the Shoyang team will become quite terrifying.
Thinking about the lineup of Fujima, Aso Taro, Hanagata, Nanretsu and Kishimoto, coupled with the high-quality substitute lineup, even if Fujima and others have not yet reached their peak, it is still a quite terrifying lineup.
Such a lineup can only be matched by Sanno Industries.
If faced with such Xiangyang, Lingnan's possibility of winning the championship will undoubtedly cast a shadow.
"They didn't transfer to Xiangyang! The time is too tight. Even if they want to transfer to Xiangyang, they won't have time to represent Xiangyang in the winter competition."
For the three major competitions among universities in the island nation, team lineups must be reported in advance and submitted to the regional organizing committee.
The only blame is that Xiangyang decided too late, almost delaying the start of the winter season to invite Coach Kitano.
Fortunately for Coach Kitano, he was fired by Toyotama and could join Xiangyang without going through any procedures.
Nanlie and Kishimoto are different. If they want to transfer to another school, they need to complete some procedures. Whether they can complete the transfer procedures quickly depends on Toyotama High School.
Obviously, Toyotama High School cannot let go of Nanretsu and Kishimoto at this time, at least until the winter season.
Of course, only they themselves know whether Nanretsu, Kishimoto and even other Toyotama players will respond to Coach Kitano's call.
Soon, there were scattered sounds in the stadium, but players from both sides had already entered the stadium.
In the first game of the Shohoku team, they faced Miuradai.
Miuradai's strength can barely reach the top eight in the county, and Shohoku only won the top eight in the county competition. Logically speaking, the two teams should be opponents of the same level.
However, this is not the case. Although in terms of overall strength, Shohoku's comprehensive strength ranks fifth in Kanagawa, they are close to or at the level of the top eight in the country.
Otherwise, the Kanagawa top four would not have made a special trip to support Shohoku.
There is no way, the internal strife in Kanagawa Prefecture is particularly serious.
Not to mention the top eight in the country, even if they reach the level of the top four in the country, they may not be able to qualify in Kanagawa.
While eating the popcorn prepared in advance, Uozumi asked Akagi Haruko very casually: "Haruko, how are you doing in the No. 4 Middle School team?"
Akagi Haruko said with a smile: "Now I am the main player of the team. If it were not for the guidance of brother Uozumi, it is unknown whether I can join the school team."
Haruko Akagi is very grateful for Uozumi’s teachings.
"Your shooting is not very stable yet, and you need more practice. It is best to practice every day, and don't slack off."
Recently, Haruko Akagi has learned how to shoot mid-range shots, which is probably why she can become the main player of the school team.
Shooting is a skill that is easy to master if you don't practice it for a day. It is best to maintain it every day to maintain the feel.
Of course, people like Mitsui are not in this category.
Compared with men's basketball, women's basketball is undoubtedly much inferior.
In this era, basketball is an unpopular sport in the island country, let alone women’s basketball.
The girls' basketball team of No. 4 Middle School is weak. There are not many girls playing basketball, so they can only be taller among the short ones. This is why Haruko Akagi, who is physically weak and only 1.5 meters tall, can become the main force of the team. reason.
"Follow your teachings!"
Akagi Haruko nodded obediently, and then seemed to remember something, and asked: "By the way, Brother Uozumi, do you think Shohoku has a chance to become the top four in Kanagawa?"
"Yes, but it's difficult!"
Uozumi nodded firmly.
This Xiangbei team has no shortage of core players and is coached by coach Anzai. The biggest flaw is that it does not have a group of qualified role players.
This Shohoku team relies too much on the internal and external coordination of Akagi and Mitsui. Once one of the two is restricted, they may be in dire straits.
However, basketball is round and anything can happen. For example, Shohoku defeated Sanno Industries in the plot year.
"I hope Xiangbei can defeat Hainan by then!"
Akagi Haruko clasped her hands and prayed.
Yuzhu shook his head and said nothing more.
Xiangbei can indeed pose a threat to Hainan High School, especially Hainan without Ikeda Kazuhiro, but it is very difficult to win.
Akagi and Mitsui are both first-year students after all, and with their physical reserves, they don’t know if they can survive until the end.
Although Uozumi and Ikegami are also first-year players, it goes without saying that their physical reserves are due to coach Taoka.
Shohoku is different. Even though Shohoku has won the quarterfinals of the prefectural competition, and Akagi and Mitsui have been selected for the Kanagawa representative team, coach Anzai is still in a retirement state, but he coaches the team much more frequently than before.
Without waiting long, the game finally started.
In this game, Mitsui became Shohoku's point guard.
Just as Uozumi expected, Miuradai was at a disadvantage from the beginning. They could not limit the performance of Akagi and Mitsui at all.
This time, Akagi was not nervous, and Mitsui's three-pointers were still accurate.
However, Shohoku did not gain much advantage. Their role players were obviously different from Miuradai, especially on the defensive end.
However, the situation is still slowly moving in a favorable direction for Shobei.
"Mitsui is becoming more and more like a combo guard for future generations!"
Looking at Mitsui's performance, Uozumi thought of Arenas, Marbury, and Kyrie Irving in later generations. Mitsui's current style is very similar to them.
The characteristic of the combo guard is that he has excellent scoring ability, good breakthrough shooting skills, and certain organizational skills, but the organization is not top-notch.
In these aspects, Mitsui fits perfectly.
When it was close to noon, the game finally ended, and Xiangbei successfully won its first victory.
