Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 169 The direction of advancement!
After the finals, the other high school teams in the stands started to leave.

There is no extra time for the Xiangbei players to digest the defeat. Immediately after the finals, there will be the closing ceremony of the basketball project of the county competition, and the closing ceremony will be held on this court.

I saw the organizers of the competition moved a few small long tables into the field, and then one by one the trophies were placed on the long tables.The awards ceremony was hasty and crude.But for the participating team members, they don't care whether the award ceremony is grand enough or whether the venue for the award is luxurious.

All they care about is whether these awards have anything to do with them.

For Xiangbei, who was defeated in the final, the part of awarding honors is the most sad part.

"Winner, Lingnan High School basketball team!"

Watching the people from Lingnan High School go up to the high platform under the guidance of the concierge to hold up the trophy for winning the county competition, the mood of Xiangbei team members has sunk to the bottom.

Amidst the cheers of the audience, Jun Uozumi and Tano Shinomiya of Lingnan walked out of the queue, received the trophy and certificate from an unknown leader, and then returned to their team with a solemn expression.

"Runner-up, County Shonhoku High School basketball team!" Following the host's words, Mitsui Hisashi walked out of the queue with a displeased face. Akagi Takenori stood there in a daze, sweat still hanging on his face and body. It was because he didn't hear the host's words, and didn't follow Mitsui Shou out of the Hu queue.

"Hey, Akagi, I'm going to receive the award." Kiguro Konobu was standing not far behind Akagi Takenori. Seeing that Mitsui Shou had already walked away and Akagi hadn't moved, he poked Akagi's waist lightly and reminded him in a low voice. road.

It was only now that Takenori Akagi came to his senses, rubbed his cheeks with his hands, and walked towards the field.

"Brother. Congratulations!" Akagi Haruko watched as Akagi Takenori walked out of the queue and went to the podium with Mitsui Hisashi, feeling happy for her brother from the bottom of her heart.

Takenori Akagi played basketball since he was a child, and Haruko watched Takenori Akagi go all the way, but before today, Takenori Akagi had never shown his face at the county-level awards ceremony, and it was until today that Takenori Akagi was really serious One step closer to his dream of "dominating the country".

Only Haruko knows how hard Akagi has worked all these years.Akagi Takenori and Mitsui Shou are different. Although they are in the same grade, Mitsui Shou has carried the honor. He has to work hard and has achieved results.But Akagi Takenori is different. He has to work hard and has never received any recognition.

At this point, the two teams representing Kanagawa County in the national competition have all been established, the champion Lingnan High School, and the runner-up Shonhoku High School. These two teams will be the two teams representing Kanagawa in the national competition.

After the championship and runner-up trophies are awarded, the players' personal honors are awarded.

"Best Player Award", also known as the MVP trophy.

There is no accident, and it is a matter of course that it was acquired by Shinomiya Tianye from Fang Lingnan High School.Shinomiya Tianno contributed 26 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in the final.Although he is far inferior to Budo Jinguji in terms of personal scoring, his statistics are more comprehensive and worthy of this MVP trophy.

And the following best5 was awarded very artistically. The winner's Lingnan High School occupied three seats, center Uozumi Jun, Shinomiya Tianye turned out to be a power forward, and the point guard was actually given to Xiandao.

God knows how Lingnan High School reported the player's position attributes.

There are two people selected as best5 in Xiangbei, Jinguji Budo and Mitsui Shou.Except for Xiangbei High School and Lingnan, none of the other teams entered the best5 award.

And this year's rookie king was not awarded to Shinomiya Tano, who won the MVP, but to Jinguji Budo. Shinomiya Tano, who has no championship bonus, is far inferior to Budo in terms of personal data.

In the early morning of summer, the sky is as clear as a mirror.

Jinguji Budo, who got up early in the morning, left home early and went to Fujima Shinichi's home for physical exercise.

After the finals, Wu Dao also learned from the pain, thinking about conducting special training for his weaknesses.The existence of gyms in this era is not widely popularized, but the master of martial arts, Fujima Shin's family has a complete range of equipment, and even a lot of advanced equipment, which is not necessarily available for money in this era.

Jinguji Budo is a disciple of Fujima Shinichi who has been worshiped as a teacher. In the Chinese cultural circle that pays attention to inheritance, the master-student relationship is second only to the close relationship between father and son.Therefore, from the day when Budo apprenticed as a teacher, he has the key of Fujima Shin's family.

However, Budo has been focusing on the training of basketball skills in recent years, and the training of judo is usually carried out at night. It is very rare to come to Fujima Shin's family early in the morning like today.

In the equipment room, Jinguji Budo squats with a 30kg barbell on his back. The load of Jinguji Budo is not heavy, and the speed of each squat is very slow, but his face is already full of sweat .

Squats are the best training method to exercise waist strength and leg strength, but any sports will use this training program.But Jinguji Budo is the first time to do it after coming to this world.

The way he usually exercises his waist and abdomen strength is usually abdominal crunches, or goblet squats.It's the way you hold a dumbbell with both hands in front of your chest and perform a squat.As for the exercise method of barbell squats, Budo has never used it.

In the past, it was because I was still in junior high school and I was still young, and squatting with barbell weights oppressed my bones, which affected my growth and development. People who practiced weightlifting since childhood did not grow tall. In fact, it has a lot to do with their usual training.Moreover, Budo didn't feel too much resistance in the competitions of peers before, so strength training has been carried out, but it is not heavy.

But yesterday's defeat in the final made Budou realize his own shortcomings at this stage. The main reason why Shinomiya Tianye was able to drive the entire team by breaking through and splitting the ball was that Budou couldn't stand up to the opponent's breakthrough when defending alone .

Why is a breakthrough goal called a breakthrough goal? First of all, the first thing to do is to break through.

The disadvantage of martial arts and opponents is also because of the power gap between the two.

Now, Budo no longer cares about high-intensity strength training such as barbell squats that will affect growth and development. His height has reached 196cm. Even if he is not tall at all, he is also a tall guard in the back line. No matter how tall he is in the future, that would be good. If the speed and confrontation are guaranteed, it would be good to play as a small forward.

If you don't have to worry about the height factor, the training restrictions will be much looser.

While Wu Dao was concentrating on training, the door of the equipment room was pulled open.Wearing a loose home kimono, Fujima Shinichi slowly walked into the equipment room with a newspaper in one hand and a teacup in the other.

Seeing Budo's body covered in sweat, doing squats with a barbell on his back, he couldn't help but smile.

"Hey, you are actually doing squats, what? You were stimulated by yesterday's competition? That young muscular man from Lingnan High School brought you a lot of trouble?"

Fujima Shinichi walked to the rest area in the corner of the equipment room, put the teacup on the small table, shook the newspaper in his hand, and asked Budao with a smile.

"Master, did you watch yesterday's match?" Bu Dao stood up slowly, put the barbell on the rack, breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed the towel beside him, and wiped off his sweat.

"I didn't read it, but I knew it."

"Not only I know, I think, many people know!"

Fujima Shinichi shook the newspaper in his hand towards Budo, and said with a smile, it seems that the source of his news is the newspaper in his hand.Budao stepped forward curiously, took the newspaper from Fujima Shinichi, and began to read it carefully.

This is the local sports daily, which is published once a day, but most of the time it reports on popular sports such as judo and wildball. There were really not many reports on things like basketball before.

But today's newspapers are different from the usual ones. The basketball project is not only reported, but even occupies the front page of the newspaper.

"King が Curtain を Close じ, Taitou する Kanagawa ツインズ"

A big headline came into view, "The king falls, the rising stars of Kanagawa". Right below the big headline is a photo of Jinguji Budo and Shinomiya Tano shaking hands.A big close-up shot of the face, the sweat on the faces of the two people is clearly visible, it should be taken when the two shook hands after the game.

Below the big photo are related reports, and fragmentary photos of Budo and Shinomiya Tano's personal courts were also mixed in during the period.The one on Shinomiya Tianno is a frontal slam dunk picture, while the one on Budo is a profile of a backward jumper.

The general content of the report is that Hainan, which has dominated the high school basketball world for more than ten years, lost. This time, it even lost the right to play in the national competition.The rise of Lingnan High School and Xiangbei High School will be the new representative team of Kanagawa County.

After that, the media exaggerated the personal strength of Jinguji Budo and Shinomiya Daye, saying that the two are the saviors of the neon basketball world, comparable to Jordan's super genius, and have the level of national players in the first grade.

In short, it was a bit harsh, and Wu Dao blushed a little.

But Budo didn't pay too much attention to the content of the report, his eyes fell on the photo of himself shaking hands with Shinomiya Tano on the front page.

"It's so obvious. I didn't realize there was such a big gap between the two of us when we were playing."

"Is that what Master can see from this photo?"

The photo in the newspaper captured the demigods of Budao and Shinomiya Tano very well.Shinomiya Tano's arm circumference is a circle larger than that of Jinguji Budo, and Budo, who is still relatively strong, looks a little thin in front of Shinomiya Tano.This was something Bu Dao hadn't discovered before. He knew there was a gap in strength between the two, but he didn't expect the gap to be so big that it could be seen with the naked eye.

"If there is nothing wrong with the photo, this kid's arm circumference is probably 40. If this kid is a freshman like you, it would be a bit scary."

"Your arm circumference seems to be in his early 30s, right? If an adult is exercising all the year round, his arm circumference is generally around 35. Like me, it is 39, which is considered very strong. It is impossible for ordinary people to have such strength as me. "

"You are only in the first year of high school, and you have just started to develop. The arm circumference in your early thirties is already very good, and your strength is definitely not small among your peers."

"But your opponent!"

"Is that kid really the same age as you?"

It can be seen that Fujima is very interested in Shinomiya Tianye, and the curiosity on his face is not concealed at all.

"Yes, although he and I are both in the development stage, he should have developed earlier than me."

Budou stared at Shinomiya Tano in the photo, and replied casually.

"That's scary too. Unexpectedly, there are still such people in the sport of basketball."

"There is really a gap between people in terms of arm circumference. It's not something you can grow just by exercising."

"If you want to not affect the speed and reaction, there is an upper limit to the increase in strength."

"Your opponent is a genius. At least, I have never seen such a high school student before."

"Yesterday's game, you must have played very hard."

Fujima Shinichi said with a little emotion, although he has never played basketball as an athlete, he now has some understanding of basketball, and he can personally feel the mood of Budo.

"It's really not easy. I have to be [-] points in front of him, and I may not be able to defend against him."

"When attacking, I also feel restricted everywhere."

"I feel like I'm not playing to my full potential."

Budou murmured, his eyes never left the newspaper, his words seemed to be answering Shinichi Fujima's question, but it was more like talking to himself.

"Strength training is necessary, but you must not lose your own characteristics."

"Although I don't know basketball, I know that every athlete has his own most unique characteristics, and you must not lose that thing."

Fujima Shinichi's words seemed to enlighten, like a reminder, he seemed to have noticed that the state of Budo was a little gloomy, and reminded him.

"."

"I know that I won't foolishly compete with the opponent for strength. This is not my strong point. I will not lose the weapon I am good at in order to pursue the growth of strength."

"However, if I want to become stronger at this stage, this training is absolutely indispensable."

"Master, can I ask you to be my trainer? I want to increase the weight."

Wu Dao turned sideways, pointed to the barbell not far away, and asked.

"The weight of [-] kilograms is indeed average, but you can still do it step by step."

"I will make an exercise plan for you. Given your current developmental level, it shouldn't affect you to spend half a year gaining 10 pounds."

"The future plan, just look at it later!"

Fujima Shinichi gathered the newspaper in his hand, took a sip of water with a smile, and said to Budo.Although Budo is his disciple in judo, Fujima Shin has no opinion on playing Budo, not to mention strengthening his physical fitness can also make Budo some progress in judo.

After the county competition, the basketball club of Xiangbei High School ushered in a short three-day vacation.

In three days, they will resume training in Xiangbei to prepare for the next national competition.

The players rested, but Anxi Koyoshi, as the coach, did not take time off. Taking advantage of this time, coach Anxi began to use his former contacts and began to collect information on the national competition opponents from all over the country.

Rolls of videotapes and pieces of information began to gather in his hands. Except for some counties that did not decide the representative team, the information of more than 30 teams fell into his hands. At the same time, Coach Anxi was also retreating at home. , Start studying your opponents.
