Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Fujima's team's small ball play had quite good results in the first half of the game.During the halftime period, Green Wind and the players from Xiangyang High School discussed how to deal with the situation.

However, in a short period of time, these young players were unable to discuss any practical plan.

After all, the method used by Fujima and the others is the most basic, solid, and most difficult method of attack.After continuous pick-and-roll outside shooting, there are only two ways to defend this style of play.

Either let the inside players double-team, or rely on the players' personal abilities to switch defenses in time after the opponent's pick-and-roll, and then use their excellent personal abilities to block one-on-one.

Apart from these two defenders, there is no better way to handle it.

At least, the young players from Green Wind High School and Xiangyang High School did not come up with any good solutions.

In fact, if Jinguji Budou faced such a situation, he would make people press the whole court. Whether he can prevent the opponent, let alone, consume the opponent's physical energy, thereby reducing the opponent's shooting efficiency, will be a problem. Not bad way.

Basketball is a sport, and the players who play it are human beings.

Not everyone is like Hisashi Mitsui, when the physical strength is weaker, the fighting spirit is stronger and the hit rate is higher.

The vast majority of people are ordinary people, or ordinary people with a little bit of basketball talent.

In the case of a large consumption of physical energy, the control of strength is reduced, and the hit rate is reduced. There is absolutely no way to avoid it.Today the player feels good, and the decay period of the shooting rate comes later. If the hand feeling is not good, the decay period of the shooting rate comes earlier.

The reason why basketball in the 90s could not develop the standard small-ball style of play, or why the small-ball style of play failed to shine in this era, is because of the defensive rules on the one hand.

Another aspect is because of the players' shooting posture.

Whether it is the hand-tested defense that is popular in this era or the two-stage shooting that players are best at, this is quite exhausting for players. Under such circumstances, if you want to rely on three-pointers against those who mainly attack the basket. The team is simply impossible.

In this era, the most valuable is not the three-point shooter, but the "big center"!
If the 84 draft were repeated a hundred times, the No. [-] pick would be Olajuwon, the great dreamer, not Michael Jordan, the God of Basketball.

The generation that was influenced by basketball in this era suddenly faced the small-ball style of play put forward by Kenji Fujima and others. The plan they came up with was to attack the inside and try to use the high efficiency of inside offense to meet the opponent's three-pointers.

The time for halftime passed quickly.

The players of the two teams returned to the court again amidst the referee's whistle.

In the second half of the game, the mixed coalition of Green Wind High School and Xiangyang High School failed to make any waves. Under the rain of three-pointers with high shooting percentages from Sora Kurutani and Ichiro Kamizou, they quickly lost hope of victory.

Tetsuya Naito’s team’s advantage in the interior is not as prominent as imagined. Jun Uozumi, Hanakata and Koichiro Nango’s interior should be high, strong and high. There is a tacit understanding or a high degree.

Under such circumstances, it is not easy for the opponent to attack the basket. This results in Naito and his team's efficiency in attacking the basket being similar to Sora Kurutani's three-point shooting efficiency.

As we all know, three points is one more than two points.
Failure becomes inevitable.

With the end of the game between the two teams, the score of the two teams was fixed at 112:71, and the point difference between the two teams reached a terrifying 40+.

"The players from Green Wind High School and Xiangyang High School are obviously not weak."

"But Fujima and his team actually won the game so easily."

"It's a little beyond my expectation!"

Seeing the end of the game, Kenji Fujima walked into the court and "captured" Tetsuya Naito into his team.Shinomiya Tianye stroked his chin and said in surprise.

In the first half of the game, Shinomiya Tianye had already seen that Fujima's subsequent defeat was revealed. He thought that the opponent would struggle hard in the second half and staged a fight between dragons and tigers.

Unexpectedly, they were defeated so easily by Fujima and the others.The result came so quickly that Shinomiya was not expecting it.

"They will lose. It's not a matter of strength. In terms of strength, the strength of the two teams is not that different."

"It's a flaw in tactics and tactics, and the two players in Fujima's team have a very good touch."

"That's what led to such a disparity in the score."

"Now Fujima and the others have snatched an excellent insider."

"Are we going to fight them next?"

Jinguji Budo briefly commented on the competition, and then asked Shinomiya Tanano and others.

Although their team had just experienced a game, the game against Sakuragi and the others was actually not that big of a drain. After all, martial arts was the main attack in that game, and the physical energy consumed by the teammates could be recovered quickly.

Moreover, Shinomiya Tianye did not play in that game, and retained [-]% of his combat effectiveness. In Budo's view, their team will be able to recover their combat effectiveness by the afternoon.

"Fujima and the others?"

"Wait, through this game I found that there may be a lot of capable players who have yet to be discovered."

"I think you can take the time to watch a few more groups of players."

"And if you want to fight, I still prefer to fight with your old teammates from Xiangbei."

"Here, bring that cold-faced boy here."

"He can hold the ball, attack the basket, and can also provide support. He is a relatively versatile player."

While Shinomiya Tianye was speaking, he turned his head to look at Rukawa Kaede who was sitting on the sidelines watching the game with his teammates at this time, and said with a smile.

"Yeah! That's a good idea."

Jinguji Budo heard this and nodded in approval.I didn’t feel guilty at all for “catching a sheep to collect its wool”.

There is no friendship to speak of in the Autumn National Sports Trials. What they have to do is defeat their opponents and form a team they think is the strongest!
In the basketball court, the players on both sides of the game changed one after another.Among these games, there were some one-sided games and some extremely intense games.

After a morning of games, Shinomiya Tano and the others really found a few talented players, but their performance on the court was average. It seemed that they were all the kind who had just played for a short time. player of.

Although these people have outstanding talents, Jinguji Martial Arts and the others are not coaches. What they want is immediate combat ability that can support their team on the court, so they have no idea about these players or martial arts.

However, the coaches on the side of the court, as the game progressed, all of them were beaming with joy.Their purpose is different from that of Martial Arts. For them, selecting Qiuzhiguosi players is just incidental. Their main purpose is to discover players with talent and potential.

First, to build the foundation for the country's echelon construction, and second, to find outstanding players for the basketball team of his university.

The morning game still made the coaches feel that they had gained a lot, and their efforts during this period were not in vain.

In the afternoon, as the number of teams decreased, the teams with outstanding players had basically played a round of games, so the competition between teams became more and more intense.

This is also related to a rule added by Coach Taoka, that is, a team that has participated in a game that day is qualified to reject the opponent's challenge, but it can initiate a challenge.

This is also to prevent strong teams from being turned around, causing an already excellent team to be disintegrated by everyone.

The beneficiaries are actually winning teams like Jinguji Budo.

The team that won the game began to wait and see, and the team that lost the game began to anxiously look for the target player.

This is a game where the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker.

In the end, there is only one team that can become the national sports representative team of Qiu!
In the afternoon game, Jinguji Budo and his team did not take any more shots.On the contrary, Xiangbei High School, which had just lost a game in the morning, wanted to challenge the Green Wind-Xiangyang mixed team, which had also lost a game in the afternoon.

The latter also readily accepted the challenge.

Both teams were losers after playing a game in the morning. Both teams only had 5 people and were in urgent need of reinforcements.After Xiangbei lost Sakuragi Hanamichi, he fell in love with the two-meter-tall black brother from Green Wind High School.

The Green Wind-Shoyo mixed team is interested in Rukawa Kaede from the Shohoku team.

In the match with Fujima and the others, they realized that they urgently needed a wave of outside reinforcement to limit the opponent's outside players, among so many players.Except for the players in Budo's first team, Rukawa Kaede, the quasi-ace of Xiangbei High School, naturally attracted their attention.

The two teams briefly weighed the strength of their teams, and both felt that their teams had a chance to win. Not only was there a chance, it was also a big chance!
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the match between Xiangbei High School and Lufeng-Xiangyang's mixed coalition started.

Unlike Fujima and the others who easily defeated their opponents, in this game, Shohoku High School actually had a very difficult time.

Shonhoku High School, which has lost Sakuragi Hanamichi, has only one "big black pillar" left by Takenori Akagi on the inside line, but the opponent has two.

This also caused the inside line of Shohoku High School to miss directly, and the two black brothers did whatever they wanted in the sky above Shohoku High School.

That is to say, Rukawa Kaede can support the inside from time to time, but even with his help, Shohoku's inside is still penetrated.

However, Shohoku High School is not completely without advantages. The outside line built by Rukawa Kaede, Miyagi Ryota, Kiyota, Katsumi and others is quite powerful.

Katsumi Ichiro's three-point shooting ability is not much inferior to Kamizou Ichiro. Together with Rukawa Kaede, they support the outside offense.

And Miyagi Ryota and Kiyota Nobunaga's attacking baskets also frequently attracted the black brothers from the inside to double-team, giving Akagi Takenori a good room to play.

This game is all about attacking each other.

The comparison is, whose offensive efficiency is higher.

In this game, the game was extremely stalemate in the first half, and the point difference between the two teams was only 5 points at the maximum.

In the second half, there was no sign of a winner in a short period of time.

However, in the first half, Miyagi Ryota and others frequently attacked the basket, leaving a big hole for their opponents.A black brother guarding the inside received three fouls in the first half.

Not long after the start of the second half, the black brother received his fourth personal foul in order to defend Kaede Rukawa who broke through.

This foul completely detonated the uneasiness within the team.

There was no obvious bias in the outcome of the two teams until this moment.

Brother Hei, who had received four fouls, no longer dared to contribute on the defensive end. He was afraid that he would accidentally receive five fouls and be sent off. And their team had no substitute players at all. Once he was sent off, their team would face 4v4 situation.

Can an insider who dares not make any moves still be a qualified insider?
As the opponent received four fouls, Takenori Akagi broke out of the quagmire inside and began to exert his strength, frequently winning key rebounds for the team.

With his hard work, Xiangbei High School also gradually opened up the score between the two teams, showing a winning trend.

In the end, Xiangbei High School defeated the opponent by 91:80 with a point difference of eleven points, and snatched the two-meter-tall black brother from the opponent's hand.

At this point, Shohoku High School returned to a 6-man team, and the inside weakness caused by the loss of Sakuragi Hanamichi was successfully made up for.

After the game in Xiangbei, several more games were played one after another.However, he didn’t pay too much attention to martial arts in the subsequent competition, and returned to the hotel gym to do his own exercises.

The coaching staff didn't care about Wu Dao's behavior. If it were someone else, they might ask him to stay on the field and act together with others.

But if you are in Jinguji Martial Arts, you can still have some "privileges".There is no way, no matter where you are, strength is the confidence to speak.

In the evening, the players who had finished the day's game returned to the hotel one after another. Even the players who were originally training in the mountains also checked into the beachfront hotel together.

This made the originally deserted hotel a little more lively.

During dinner in the evening, a group of team members were eating in the cafeteria while discussing how to play tomorrow's game and which players to look for. The huge cafeteria was divided into small groups.

Budo and Shinomiya Tano sat together, eating and chatting about whether there were any outstanding players to choose from in the afternoon.

After chatting for a long time, Wu Dao found that there were only a few players worthy of being selected by his team in the end, and they did not have the kind of outstanding immediate combat ability.

It seems that the first few rounds of selection organized by Coach Tianoka have really achieved good results, and the masters have basically been selected.

Knowing this news, the next thing for Wu Dao and the others to do is much simpler.Just keep challenging the people from Xiangbei High School and Lingnan High School who are accumulating strength.

Just pick the already excellent players back into the team again!
Coach Taoka probably didn’t expect that when Jinguji Budo and Shinomiya Tano formed a team, it would develop into such a result.

only.
Early the next morning, Coach Tian Gang announced the first match between Xiangbei High School and Lingnan.

It turned out that the night before, the two teams found Coach Tianoka by coincidence, and both wanted to include the other team as their challenge opponents for the next day.

It seems that both teams are aware of the gathering of top players. If they want to have the capital to challenge Jinguji Budou and the others, they have to win the right players from the opponent.

Shohoku is interested in Fujima, and Fujima and the others are interested in Kaede Rukawa, who has excellent ball-holding ability!
