December 15th, Aichi National Stadium.
Aichi Prefecture is the host for this winter national competition.
Therefore, Aichi Prefecture also has two places, which are won by the division champion and runner-up.
In addition to Aihe Academy, another spot was taken by Mingpeng Industry.
As soon as the Lingnan team entered the stadium, they felt a rush of heat and the enthusiasm of the spectators along the way.
As the number one high school student in the country, Uozumi's popularity is very high even in Aichi Prefecture.
At the same time, just like a fish at this height, it attracts the audience's attention like a firefly in the night light.
Under the guidance of the staff, the Lingnan team came to their position.
As the runner-up in the last winter national competition, the Lingnan team naturally stood in the center, right next to the previous champion Hakata, and on the other side was Sanno Industries.
As the champions and runners-up of the last winter national competition, Lingnan and Hakata are naturally the only two seeded teams.
The seeded teams have the privilege of having a bye in the first two rounds and not meeting highly rated teams in the early stages.
What is surprising is that in the new issue of "Basketball Weekly"'s evaluation of the teams in the winter competition, Hakata, the previous champion, was not evaluated as well as the Lingnan team.
In the evaluation of "Basketball Weekly", Hakata and Sanno are still AA-level teams, while Lingnan has become an AA+-level team, and is also the highest-rated team in this winter competition.
By the way, the Xiangyang team was also rated as an AA team.
As for Aihe Academy, which has the golden double spear, it was rated as an A+ team due to its abnormal performance in the Autumn National Sports Competition.
While waiting, Uozumi looked at the winter competition grouping list in boredom.
There are only two groups in the Winter National Competition, with the champion and runner-up serving as the seeded teams in the group.
Among them, Bodo, as the champion, is the first seeded team in the group.
In the first group, there are also strong teams such as Xiangyang, Daiei Academy, and Changcheng.
Lingnan naturally became the second seeded team, and Sanno Industrial, Aihe Academy, and Luoan were also in this group.
Judging from the group list, Sanno Industrial, as an AA-level team, will have a showdown with Lingnan only if it reaches the first group finals.
Not far away, Minoru Matsumoto looked at the group list with a grimace.
In order to avoid playing against the Lingnan team with Yuzhu as much as possible, he finally chose Aihe Academy.
As a result, the autumn national sports competition happened, and the winter national competition will happen again as expected.
Judging from the group list, Aihe Academy will encounter the Lingnan team in the fourth round, which is the semi-finals of the group stage.
Compared with the Lingnan team, Matsumoto Minoru wants to meet the Sanno more so that he can prove himself in front of coach Domoto.
Unfortunately, this is just his imagination after all.
Unlike Matsumoto Minoru, 'Aichi Star' Morohoshida looks like he's been injected with chicken blood.
"Matsumoto, we have already adjusted well. Xiongtai's strength has also improved a lot. This time we must surprise the national audience!"
Minoru Matsumoto couldn't say anything depressing, so he managed to cheer up and casually responded: "We will definitely do it, we are very strong!"
Like Matsumoto Minoru, Ogada of Sanno Industrial Co., Ltd. is also worried.
At least Matsumoto Minoru doesn't need to face Uozumi directly, but Ogata is the real sufferer.
What hurts Ohda the most is that he has grown taller during this period, and now he is 193 centimeters tall.
No matter how you look at it, he must be Sanno Industrial's starting center.
'Totem Pole' Nobe Masahiro is still too thin even if he gains weight. He can't even block the fish a little, and Ogata cannot avoid it at all.
Fortunately, Okawada has already been mentally prepared, and he thinks this is his last time as the starting center.
Ohda: Brother, you must work hard. The important task of dealing with Uozumi will be left to you in the future!
Before long, 50 teams had assembled.
The process is the same as the previous one. The difference is that the player representative this time is not the previous championship ace Suzuki Nohisuke, but Uozumi.
There is no way, Uozumi was the MVP of the last winter national competition, and he was also the number one high school student in the country, and he was obviously more convincing than Suzuki Nohisuke.
Even if he was mentally prepared in advance, Suzuki Nohisuke still felt uncomfortable. What else could he do? He could only hope to wash away his shame in this winter competition.
Well, the premise is that he has passed Xiangyang first.
On the stage, Yu Zhu did not waste any nonsense and quickly ended his speech. This move naturally won the welcome of the audience and players.
They have long been tired of hearing the same official talk and clichés, and can't wait to start the first game.
After the swearing-in meeting, the first round of competition will also begin on this day.
As a seeded team, Lingnan team naturally has nothing to do in the first two rounds. They have more time to recharge their batteries and observe the performance of their opponents.
Among them, the main ones were naturally observing the same group of Sanno Industries and Aiwa Academy.
These two teams are also the only teams in the second group that can threaten Lingnan.
Regarding these two teams, Lingnan did not dare to be careless at all.
Before we knew it, the time came to December 18th.
It is still a familiar formula. In these three days, the winter competition has been played once a day. Three rounds have passed, and now there are four teams left in each of the two groups.
During this period, the Lingnan team experienced a game. Regardless of the name of the opponent, they were very weak. They were barely strong enough and had no desire to challenge at all.
In this game, Uozumi only played for ten minutes, and without much effort, he led the team to beat the opponent by more than 20 points.
During the rest of the game, Yuzhu could only sit on the bench. Yuzhu was so cold that he almost caught a cold.
In such a short period of time, Yuzhu naturally broke no records.
According to what he said, opponents at this level have no desire to brush up on statistics.
Today is the day of the fourth round, and all four games will be held at the National Sports Center.
The first group: Hakata VS Daiei Academy, Shoyo VS Jinbo University Affiliated.
The second group: Lingnan VS Aihe Academy, Sanno Industry VS Luoan Commerce.
Among them, the two games of the first group are concentrated in the morning, and the second group is played in the afternoon.
There were no surprises in the first group match. Hakata and Xiangyang defeated their opponents without exception, and even the main players of the two teams only played for half of the game.
It took almost only half-time to establish a huge score advantage. It can only be said that the two sides are not at the same level at all.
After the game, Daiei Academy's ace Jun Tsuchiya was full of frustration and seemed unwilling to do so.
The gap in the team's lineup is too big, which makes Jun Tsuchiya very powerless. He is not Uozumi. With such a big gap in the lineup, he cannot drive the team to win by himself.
After the morning game, it was the second group's turn.
The match between Lingnan and Aihe is in the first game!
If you spend a few days every month lying in bed, plus the time spent taking care of sick relatives, how much energy is left for work?
No matter what your occupation is, reduced working hours will inevitably affect your income.
At the same time, you will definitely have to spend an extra amount of medical expenses every month, which is not bad, but the prices of key commodities have also increased.
In addition, the medicine is three parts poisonous, and if things continue like this, the body will not be able to bear it.
Who can bear this!
This is still the most ideal situation...
