Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 131 The Targeted Player!

Monday, another peaceful and calm day.

In the classroom, a little old man wearing glasses is "passionately" lecturing to the students below.Jinguji Budao sat at the end of the classroom, with one hand on his chin, turned his head and looked out the window, not thinking about the class at all.

"I don't know if that kid Yingmu Huadao will wait for me in the park today."

"Looking at his appearance yesterday, he should come."

"The team's training usually ends around 06:30. It shouldn't hurt to leave three or 10 minutes early. Compared with group training, it's not a waste of time for Sakuragi to practice alone."

Jinguji Budao was lost in thought when a piece of chalk flew towards him from the podium.Out of the corner of Wu Dao's eyes, he noticed the flying chalk, subconsciously lowered his head, easily dodged the attack of the chalk, and then slowly turned his head to look at the podium.

At this time, the little old man in class was posing in a "throwing" posture. When he saw Wu Dao dodging the flying chalk, he was also taken aback, but he quickly reacted, tapped the blackboard, and shouted at Wu Dao road:
"Jinguji Budo, come up! Solve this problem!"

"If you can't do it, go stand outside!"

This old man is obviously Nihong's teacher, but the words he speaks make him very familiar with martial arts. The method of teaching students seems to be no different from that of teachers in China.I glanced at the question on the blackboard, a simple quadratic function, which is placed in China, that is, the question of the third level of junior high school.

He stood up, walked to the podium without saying a word, followed the impression in his mind, and wrote the process of solving the problem and the answer on the blackboard.

"Well, not bad."

"However, it's different from what I just said."

"Listen well in class, don't be distracted."

The little old man nodded first, then shook his head, patted Wu Dao's arm, and his tone was much softer than before.The violent storm did not come down, which disappointed some students who wanted to watch a good show.

Back on his seat, Wu Dao lowered his head, pretended to read a book, and began to doze off.This kind of class can be regarded as torment for him, but it will be fine in the second and third year of high school in the future. After all, the questions in the senior grades are much more difficult than the current ones. Although Martial Arts was not bad in the college entrance examination before, but After so many years, I have forgotten a lot.

As a student in school, what is the most looking forward to?
Of course it was the school bell. In the afternoon, when the school bell rang, Jinguji Budo, who had been listless all day, suddenly became refreshed. He grabbed his backpack and rushed out of the classroom, heading towards the arena.

Going to school like a worm, leaving school like a dragon, we are talking about students like martial arts.

When Bu Dao arrived at the arena, there were not many people there. Bu Dao, who had changed his clothes and shoes early, found a basketball and started doing simple warm-ups.

During the half hour after the school bell rang, the players of Xiangbei basketball team gathered in the arena one after another.After everyone arrived, Mitsui Shou began to lead the team members to warm up.

When the warm-up activities came to an end, Coach Anxi walked in slowly through the gate of the gymnasium.

"Hi, Coach!" As Coach Anxi walked into the classroom, the players greeted loudly, which was regarded as a courtesy.

After the warm-up, under the instruction of Mitsui Hisashi, the players began to line up in front of Coach Anzai.

Looking at the energetic teenagers in front of him, Coach Anxi couldn't help but smile.

"This rest day, how are you resting?" Coach Anxi asked with a smile, and the players answered him in unison, "Yes".

Nodding, Coach Anxi continued:

"Our Xiangbei High School entered the semi-finals this year, which is a very good result."

"However, what I want to tell you is that my expectations for the team have never been just the top four."

"This is just the beginning."

"Mitsui, what is our goal?!"

Coach Anxi was talking, and suddenly he clicked on Mitsui Shou.His name was called Mitsui Shou without any hesitation, and he yelled directly: "Dominate the whole country!"

"What about you?" Hisashi Mitsui's answer was obviously what coach Anzai wanted to hear. After a slight nod, he asked the players.

"Dominate the country!"

Mitsui Shou's obsession has been fermented for such a long time, and it has already affected every player, whether strong or weak, when Coach Anxi asked questions, there was only one thought in everyone's mind. Even Jinguji Budo is no exception.

"Very well, remember what you said today!"

"The schedule for the semi-final round robin has been released."

"Caizi, post it for everyone to see."

After boosting the morale of the team, Coach Anxi said to Caizi who was on the side.Ayako, who received the instruction from Coach Anzai, quickly took out a roll of paper from the drawer and posted it on the wall.

The curious players gathered around and looked curiously at the posted round-robin match list.

"Our first match is against Wuyuan? I heard that the ratio of boys to girls in this school is 2:8!"

"Where is your focus?! What is the ratio of men to women? Is this team good? Can we beat them?"

The players saw that the first opponent on the round-robin match list was Wuyuan High School, and the discussion became heated immediately.The second opponent in the round robin is Lingnan High School, and the third opponent is Hainan.In terms of the ranking order of their opponents alone, it doesn't actually have much impact on their Xiangbei High School.

"This Wuyuan's strength is mediocre. I haven't heard of any outstanding players."

"It should be far inferior to Xiangyang High School."

"The opponents we have to pay attention to are Lingnan and Hainan. These two teams are our biggest opponents."

Mitsui Shou looked at the match list, touched his chin and said to everyone.

"It's all the same. Anyway, we have to meet and defeat. Whether we meet early or late, it doesn't make any difference to us."

Jinguji Budao's mentality is much more peaceful when dealing with this matchup table. In his opinion, there is no difference between encountering and late encountering.Different from the competition system of the national competition, the round-robin competition system of the county competition to the semi-finals is not back-to-back.There is an interval of three or four days between the game and the game, and the rest time for the players is actually quite sufficient.

After all, the two strongest teams in the county are selected. If it is back to back, the results of the competition will inevitably be affected by the grouping.The current competition system completely avoids this disadvantage.

"Okay, don't hang around here anymore, let's start training!"

Hisashi Mitsui agreed with Budo's idea, clapped his hands, and drove away the players around the battle table.After a short period of confusion, Xiangbei's training finally started in an orderly manner.

While Xiangbei High School was training, Lingnan High School located by the seaside of Kamakura, their basketball team was also training in full swing.

However, their training seems to be somewhat different from the large group training in Xiangbei.

"Press it up, all of them are forced up towards the Sinomiya field!"

"You should regard him as the Jinguji martial arts in northern Hunan, and as the Mushenyi in Hainan!"

"As long as your zone defense can limit the field, you have the opportunity to limit others!"

"Cross-country, Ikegami, hurry up and keep up!"

On the sidelines of the court, Coach Tian Gang from Lingnan was standing on the sidelines, yelling at the few people practicing on the court.All the players from Lingnan High School gathered on the sidelines. On the court, there were only three of them.

Shinomiya Tianye was wearing a white training uniform on his upper body and blue ball pants on his lower body. He was approaching the basket with the ball at this time.And defending him is a two-person defense line composed of Lingnan High School's off-road Hiroaki and Ikegami Ryoji.

Shinomiya Tianye's dribbling height is very low, the rhythm is also very fast, and his ability to find opportunities is also quite good. Cross-country Hiroaki's footsteps are only a beat slower. Shinomiya Tianye directly seized the flaw and quickly dribbled through. At the same time as the breakthrough, Shinomiya Tianye also used his ball protector to slightly block off-road Hiroaki's pursuit.

Shinomiya Tano, who broke through the off-road start speed, opened the distance in an instant. Although Ikegami wanted to follow up, he couldn't catch up with Shinomiya Tano, who had already started speeding up.Shinomiya Tianye, who broke through, went to the basket, made a layup with ease, and scored the ball.

"This is not acceptable! My speed has not been fully released, and there are not many changes in dribbling when I break through. If you can't stop me like this, it is impossible to stop Jinguji Budo."

"That guy has more dribbling changes than me, and his mid-range shots are very accurate. The difficulty of defense is much more difficult than what I showed at this time."

After Shinomiya Tianye scored the goal, he seemed a little dissatisfied with the defensive effect of the two teammates, and said aloud.And Coach Tian Gang on the sidelines couldn't hold back the anger in his heart at this time, and shouted at Ikegami and Cross Country:
"You two, where are your ears? Press them! Press them!"

"Even if you can't steal the ball, don't let Tianye break through too easily. Don't pity your physical strength. What I want now is not to let you two rationally distribute physical strength!"

Coach Tian Gang roared angrily, then pointed at the panting cross-country Hiroaki, and shouted, "Take a break, cross-country!"

"Ah Fu, go and practice defense with Ikegami."

Coach Tian Gang patted Fukuda Yoshio next to him, pointed to the field and said.

Koichi Hiroaki walked off the court, and was caught and trained by Coach Tianoka. Jun Uozumi noticed that the cross-country trainee seemed to be a bit ruthless, so he patted the opponent's shoulder with a smile to comfort him.

A group of Lingnan players set their sights on the court again.

At this time, Shinomiya Tianye's opponent changed. He picked up the basketball and walked to the middle circle, indicating that Ryoji Ikegami and Fukuda could start.

Then, facing the defense of the two, Shinomiya Tianye began to dribble, finding the defensive flaws of Ikegami and Fukuda.

The training that coach Tian Gang arranged for the team today is a two-two group defense training.The offensive side is played by Shinomiya Tano and Sendo Akira, and the defensive side is played by Coach Tianoka at random.

The purpose of this kind of training is to prepare for the subsequent round-robin competition.

Ever since watching Jinguji Budo's performance on the court, Coach Tian Gang has a deep sense of crisis. In order to deal with the threat Jinguji Budo brought to them at Lingnan High School, he planned such a training plan.The entire training was conducted against the opponent's "pioneers".

In Coach Tianoka's view, it is very difficult to use a conventional zone defense to limit the opponent's attack against a player like Jinguji Budo, and letting Shinomiya Tano go one-on-one with the opponent may be able to restrict the opponent, but it is difficult to limit the opponent. At the same time, the offensive firepower of their Lingnan High School will be greatly reduced.

So Coach Tian Gang came up with this idea, planning to use two-person defense to consume Jinguji Budo's physical energy.

He has watched the Xiangbei game, and only Mitsui Hisashi and Jinguji Budo have super attacking abilities.Akagi Takenori is still very immature now, although he is slightly stronger than Uozumi, but generally speaking, Kazumi and Uozumi are only on par.

As for Miyagi Ryota, the offensive ability has not been developed.As for the other people in Xiangbei, their ability to attack from the outside is very average.

Coach Tianoka plans to use Sendo to single-handedly defend Mitsui Hisashi, let Shinomiya Tanno enter the basket to assist Uozumi to control the inside line, and the other two players will pester Jinguji Budo.As for the other Xiangbei team members, let them go!

The same tactics and tactics can be used not only on Xiangbei, but also on Hainan.

Coach Tian Gang has already deduced that as long as Jinguji Budo is restricted by their Lingnan double defense, then Xiangbei High School's winning rate against their Lingnan will be 0.

It's just that from the current stage, the joint defense training in Lingnan is not going so smoothly.

While Coach Tianoka was thinking, Shinomiya Tianye broke through the defenses of Fukuda and Ikegami and shot from the mid-range.Perhaps because of the huge physical consumption, Shinomiya Tianye didn't make the ball this time.

"Phew~ The defense was pretty good this time, and it affected my shooting rhythm."

Shinomiya Tianye breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and then looked at Coach Tian Gang.Coach Tian Gang noticed Shinomiya Tianye's gaze, replaced Shinomiya Tianye, put on Xiandao to replace Shinomiya Tianye, and began to attack.

Xiandao's style of play is completely different from Shinomiya Tanno's. His dribbling speed is not very fast, but the rhythm between dribbles is quite strange, and he also mixed some small movements when he broke through.

With a simple INout, Xiandao directly deceived Fukuda Jizhao and broke through easily. Unlike Shinomiya Tanno's play style when he went to the basket, Xiandao had no intention of going inside after breaking through. Shot from outside the three-point line.

The basketball flew towards the hoop, hit the edge of the hoop, bounced a bit and then fell to the floor.Although Xiandao missed the goal, coach Tian Gang off the field frowned slightly, and loudly reminded Fukuda not to eat Xiandao's fake moves.

If it was said that Shinomiya Tianye's breakthrough just now relied on speed, then Xiandao's breakthrough now relies more on technology.

And whether it is the breakthrough method simulated by Shinomiya Tano or the breakthrough method simulated by Akira Sendo, both of them are possessed by Jinguji Budo!
Jinguji Budao, who was far away in northern Hunan, had no idea that his style of play was being studied and analyzed by others.

At around [-] o'clock in the evening, Jinguji Budao bid farewell to his teammates early and rushed to the park agreed with Sakuragi Hanadao.

But when Jinguji Budao hurried to the park, Hanamichi Sakuragi had already arrived and was practicing dribbling.On the edge of the court, Yohei Mito, Nozomi Takamiya and others sat on the open space under the basket, watching Sakuragi Hanamichi practice.

The light blue vest that Sakuragi Hanamichi was wearing was tightly attached to Sakuragi's skin, and his chest and back were printed dark blue with sweat.It can be seen that Sakuragi has been practicing for a while before Budo came.

"This guy is beyond my expectations!"
