After the tough battle between Xiangbei High School and Kainan High School, almost all the players are seeking changes. Not only Akagi Takenori and Mugure Konobu, but also Mitsui Hisashi, Miyagi and others in some unknown areas of Kanagawa Prefecture are also trying to make themselves stronger.
The achievements made by Xiangbei High School today not only make the players excited and happy, but also nourish their ambitions.
...
The match between Shohoku and Ryonan can be said to be the most watched match in Kanagawa high school basketball. Both teams stepped on Kainan High School to get to the top, and the match between the two teams will also determine the new champion of Kanagawa Prefecture.
At the end of June, the last round of Kanagawa Prefecture's competition kicked off at the Kanagawa Prefectural Gymnasium.
In the early morning, the sky was gray, and a corner of the sky was faintly red. The sun was blocked behind thick clouds.
The clock had already passed eight o'clock. A gentle breeze was blowing and the weather was slightly cool, totally different from the usual heat.
This kind of weather is really not good for people doing business on the seaside. There are only a few people strolling and playing on the wide coastline and soft sand.
However, although this kind of weather is not very friendly to people doing business or traveling at the seaside, it is quite friendly to people like Shohoku and Ryonan who are going to play in the game.
The county gymnasium was filled with people.
Hainan and Buri are playing a round-robin match on the court. Both teams have lost so far and both lost the qualification to attend the national competition a few days ago. However, the round-robin match still has to be played. Even if the result is known in advance, the process still needs to be completed.
The stands were full of spectators, but their attention was not on the two teams on the field. Many of them had a lack of interest on their faces and were obviously not interested in the game.
Some spectators looked at the players' tunnels on both sides of the field from time to time, as if they were expecting something. The entire stadium was full, and there were many high school students watching the game in the stands, wearing the same school uniform. These people were the students who were going to attend the award ceremony.
After the two games today, this year's county competition came to an end. After the county competition, there was a so-called "award ceremony". Because of this, only a small part of the audience seats today were occupied by ordinary spectators, and more seats were provided to high school students.
“Ah~ah~”
"They're playing so slowly. Hainan is already leading by more than 20 points. Wouldn't it be better for Buri to surrender early? Neither team can qualify anyway, so why waste time?"
The game between Hainan and Buri was in the middle stage, and Hainan High School was leading the opponent by 25 points with 47:22. Even with such a score, Hainan still used first and second year players to achieve such results, and the main players were not even sent to the court.
But even with only the first and second graders sent out, Buri was already unstoppable because the gap in strength between the two teams was simply too great.
The audience member's complaint attracted responses from the people around him. The audience, which had been somewhat quiet, became a little agitated, but soon returned to calm.
The match between Hainan and Buri was so boring. The situation was one-sided, and there was no particularly outstanding or explosive player among the 10 players on the field. The whole game seemed very dull, and there was no way to get the audience excited. It was even less exciting than Boruto: Naruto Next Generations.
However, this situation suddenly changed as the player channels on both sides of the field were opened.
"Are you still playing? It seems we entered the stadium too early!" The player passage on the east side of the stadium opened, and Coach Anxi led the Xiangbei players wearing red school uniforms out of the passage.
Standing at the front of the team was Coach Anzai, who walked straight to the referee's seat after entering the field. Mitsui Hisashi led the players to stand at the wall near the entrance, looked at the scoreboard on the sidelines and sighed.
"Shohoku, Shohoku is here!"
“ohhhhhh!
! Jinguji Budo! Jinguji Budo! "
“Xiao San!
!
Mistress!
!
”
As the Xiangbei High School players entered the stadium, the audience, which had seemed a little quiet, suddenly burst into cheers. Some audience members who knew Jinguji Budou shouted Jinguji Budou's name, hoping to get some attention. When Mitsui Shou's friends saw Mitsui Shou and others, they immediately waved the "Flame Man" flag.
At this moment, the match between Hainan and Buri was still going on in the stadium, but no one in the stands was cheering because of the match.
Jinguji Budo heard many spectators shouting his name, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. He held back his laughter and tried hard to control the urge to laugh.
With so many people shouting his name, it means that Budou has already occupied a certain position in the hearts of fans in Kanagawa Prefecture. It is impossible to say that Budou is not happy at all. Budou is in a very good mood to be able to become famous.
On the other hand, Mitsui Shou was very dissatisfied with his bad friend's calling him "Xiao San, Xiao San", which really made him feel overwhelmed.
"Those bastards!" Mitsui Shou looked at De Nan and others with gritted teeth, his face twitching.
The arrival of Shohoku and others also attracted the attention of Coach Takato. As for Shohoku, Coach Takato's mood is quite complicated. From a big picture perspective, he is very happy that Kanagawa Prefecture can have such an excellent team like Shohoku, but selfishly speaking, Hainan's defeat has always been on his mind.
Although he didn't say anything to the players, Gaotou hasn't had a good sleep since the day he lost to Xiangbei. Whenever his mind is free, Gaotou can't help but deduce ways for Hainan to defeat Xiangbei and Ryonan. But after so many days, except for losing more hair, Coach Gaotou has no better solution.
However, the deductions made him realize two facts these days.
To defeat Shohoku High School, they must defeat Jinguji Budo, and to defeat Ryonan High School, they must defeat Shinomiya Tano.
No matter which team Hainan faced, they had no way to limit Jinguji Budo and Shigong Tianye. Hainan needed to find and tap more potential and capable players to strengthen the team. And fortunately, Coach Gaotou did find a freshman in the team who was worth training.
Coach Gaotou is confident that as long as the child grows up, he will be able to provide Hainan with the "firepower support" that their team lacks the most.
The game was still going on, and the audience in the stands had calmed down a little, and the cheers had become much quieter.
"Shua!" There was a slight sound in the court, and the basketball went into the net. Outside the three-point line at half court in Buri, Kamiso Ichiro raised his hands high with a faint smile on his face.
Three-pointer, this is the third three-pointer that Kazuo Shinzo has made in this game. Although his personal score is only 9 points, which is not comparable to other players in Hainan who score more points, Kazuo Shinzo is very satisfied. He is very satisfied with the results of the training over the past few months.
Kazuo Kamiso, now a freshman in high school, has only been a member of the Hainan High School basketball team for a few months. He was selected by the captain of Hainan because of his outstanding height. Every year, many new students in Hainan apply to join the basketball team, but not everyone has the opportunity to become a member of the Hainan bench.
Every year, Hainan will persuade many players to quit. In the past, Kazuo Kamiya was on the verge of being persuaded to quit. Although he has an excellent height, he reported the center position when he joined the club. However, Kazuo Kamiya was too thin when he first joined Hainan. He was 186cm tall and weighed only a pitiful 64kg.
His physical data is similar to that when Wu Dao just entered junior high school, but although the data is similar, the situation is completely different.
Wu Dao was in the first grade of junior high school at that time, and Jin Zongyilang was in the first grade of high school!
His thin physique, poor confrontation, and not-so-outstanding dribbling skills and movement speed, all of these indicate that Kazuo Kamiya is not suitable for playing basketball, or in other words, not suitable for the "King of Hainan".
Coach Gaotou once wanted to persuade Kamiso Ichiro to quit, but one day after the training in Hainan, Coach Gaotou discovered this young man still shooting three-pointers in the gym after training.
Kazuo Kazuo is still thin and immature, and his three-point shooting level is far behind that of Shohoku's Mitsui Shou, and even worse than some players in their Hainan team. However, Coach Takato also gave up the idea of persuading Kazuo Kazuo to quit because of his efforts.
Keep it. It has no impact on the team anyway, so just keep it.
Originally, Kazuo Kamiso would not have been discovered by Coach Takato so soon, but the consecutive losses to Ryonan and Shohoku deeply hurt this famous coach who had dominated the high school basketball world for more than ten years.
Seeking reform, he discovered Ichiro Kamiso in the team's training match a few days ago. After several months and more than 100 days of three-point shooting training, Ichiro Kamiso actually made 4 three-point shots in that practice match. Although he was still not as good as Jinguji Budou and Mitsui Shou who had just played against them, Coach Takato still saw the potential of Ichiro Kamiso.
In today's match against Buri, Coach Gaotou couldn't wait to put Kazuo Kamiso on the court. In this match, the group of first and second year substitute players sent by Hainan were actually just smokescreens around Kazuo Kamiso.
Coach Gaotou was also very satisfied with Kazuo Kamio's performance on the court today. His three-point shooting output was quite stable. Although his shooting accuracy was average under interference, he could already use open three-pointers. And although Kazuo Kamio was thin and slow, he had excellent passing awareness and court vision, and his basketball IQ was also excellent, which Gaotou had never discovered before.
Although he is far less overwhelmingly powerful than Shohoku's Jinguji Budo, Coach Takato sees the potential for Hainan's future in Kamiso Ichiro.
"Swish!" After several rounds of offense and defense, there was another light sound in the court. Kazuo Kamiya scored again from outside the three-point line, and his personal score reached 15 points.
The gap between the two teams also widened to 30 points with the outstanding performance of Kazuo Kamiya.
Finally, when Jinzong Yilang made his third three-pointer, this gentle-looking boy attracted the attention of the audience. Those who got tickets to watch the game today were all veterans who knew a lot about high school basketball. They had never heard of such a three-point shooter in Hainan.
I have never seen Kazuo Kamiya play on the court.
"Who is that No. 15 from Hainan? I've never seen him play." Mugure Konobu has been practicing three-pointers these past two days, and Kamiso Ichiro's clean shot immediately caught his attention.
"I don't know, I haven't seen it before!" Mitsui Shou was also looking at Kamiso Ichiro. Although Mitsui Shou was not a pure three-point shooter, three-pointers were also Mitsui Shou's main means of scoring. He saw Kamiso Ichiro's performance, and he could also see Kamiso Ichiro's potential.
"That boy is called Jinzong Yilang."
"You can see that he is still very young now, but next time if he meets Hainan in the county competition, he will not be so young."
"Mumu, this person is the same type as you."
Wudao recognized Kamiso Ichiro from Hainan. He had not paid attention to Hainan's substitute players before. Kamiso Ichiro's appearance surprised Wudao a little, but it was just a little surprise. Not to mention that Hainan had already lost to Xiangbei, even if Hainan had not lost now, Kamiso Ichiro at this stage would not be able to help Hainan defeat Xiangbei.
By the time of next year's county competition, Hainan will still not be able to make any waves even with such an outstanding three-point shooter.
Because next year's Xiangbei will be more terrifying than this year's Xiangbei!
The future?! No team in Kanagawa can compare with Shohoku in terms of future!
Just as everyone in the stadium began to notice Kazuo Shinzo, there were dense footsteps coming from the west side of the player tunnel. Not long after, the players of Ryonan walked out of the tunnel under the leadership of coach Tanaoka.
Coach Tiangang seemed very happy today. He had a bright smile on his face, and the corners of his mouth were almost reaching the back of his head.
Following Coach Takaoka was Uozumi Jun, whose appearance once again made the audience excited. But the next person who appeared turned the audience's cheers into surprise.
Following Uozumi Jun out of the player tunnel was a tall guy wearing glasses and wearing the black and blue Ryonan school uniform, but that face... was actually Shoyo's Hanagata Toru!
"That person is... Hanagata from Shoyo?!" Budou was the first to notice the Ryonan team members. When he saw that it was Hanagata instead of Shinomiya Tanaka following behind Uozumi, his face was full of surprise. However, what surprised him was yet to come. As Shinomiya Tanaka and Sendoh followed Hanagata out, the person who followed closely behind them was...
"Fujima?!
!
”
“That’s Fujima from Shoyo?!
”
"Why is he in the Ryonan team, and wearing the Ryonan school uniform?!"
"And the tall guy with glasses is from Shoyo, why is he also on the Ryonan team?"
Fujima and Hanagata, who appeared in the Ryonan team, ignited the whole stadium. The audience exclaimed one after another. Coach Takato was also stunned when he looked at Ryonan. In his sight, Coach Tanaoka left the team with a grin and went to the referee's seat. After a few simple exchanges, he walked in front of Coach Takato, turned his head to look at the game on the court, and suddenly praised:
"Haha, you did a good job, much better than Bu Li." The words were nice, but when they came out of Coach Tiangang's mouth, they sounded sarcastic. The veins on Gaotou's forehead were throbbing despite his calmness. He was silent for a while, then looked at Coach Tiangang and asked:
"What's going on?! Why are those two people in your team?!"
Coach Takato didn't say it explicitly, but Coach Tanaka certainly understood what he meant.
"Haha, we in Ryonan are different from you in Hainan. We are going to the national competition to win the championship!"
"A strong team will naturally attract strong players to join!"
Coach Tiangang smiled sinisterly, with a smug look on his face, which made Coach Gaotou feel unhappy for a while. Of course, Coach Gaotou would not believe Coach Tiangang's lies. Players like Fujima and Hanagata are treasures in any team, and the school will not let them go. Unless...
Coach Gaotou vaguely remembers that during the match between Shoyo and Shohoku, a considerable conflict broke out within the Shoyo team.
“Could it be…” Coach Gaotou had a guess in his mind, and Tong Kong suddenly shrank.
"They joined the team midway through the season, so they can't play in today's game. The list of players was submitted at the beginning of the county competition!" Coach Takato frowned and said, with Fujima and Hanagata joining, the current Ryonan team... ...
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"The high head is too small, the pattern is too small!"
"It's just a county competition. Tian Ye and Xian Dao can easily handle it. I said, my goal is not the county competition!"
"The list for the national competition hasn't been submitted yet!"
"We in Ryonan now have only one goal - to dominate the country!"
“Hahahahahahaha!
!”
Coach Tiangang laughed happily as he left the rest area of Hainan. It seemed that he came here just to show off. After returning to the Ryonan team, Coach Tiangang cast his eyes towards Xiangbei, sneered suddenly, and said to himself in a resentful tone:
"Hmph! Miyagi... Mitsui... You will regret not joining us, Ryonan!"
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..
