The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master.

Chapter 161 Imitation of others

The light in the eyes of Morohoshidai, Fukatsu Kazunari and others all disappeared.

If you lose in the summer league, you can still say come back in the winter, but if you lose again in the winter, where can you come back?

Frankly speaking, they had thought about 10,000 possibilities of failing in the winter selection, but those were all threats from Xiangyang's Lin Dong, who was not at all a high school student.

but……

Under the cheers of the whole stadium, most of the Sanwang players closed their eyes tightly, and their faces were wet with sweat or tears.

They also gave everything for this game, but the game is cruel, and there is only one winner after all.

Mori Shigekuan was so tired that he sat on the ground, his eyes dull.

Since his debut, he has received countless honors and praises, and even after arriving in the United States, the holy land of basketball, he is still outstanding.

His journey has been so smooth, and he has long been accustomed to the feeling of invincibility. Even if he lost in the summer league, he only lost because of his lack of experience and his opponent's trick to send him off the court.

But in the last few minutes of today, he felt that he was really completely suppressed by Xiangbei's No. 10, regardless of skill, momentum or confidence.

I can no longer do whatever I want under the basket, and I can no longer get what I want. And this No. 10 is inferior to me in height and weight, and has even been exposed to basketball for less time than me!

It turns out that I am not omnipotent.

He couldn't help but think of the conversation he had with Ozaki Masatoshi in the locker room.

Mori Shigehiro was not stupid. He seemed careless when he said those words, but in fact, he knew the weight and consequences of those words.

If we win today, the Basketball Association may not do anything, but if we lose now, then maybe even Coach Domoto’s future has been lost to him, and of course, everyone who trusts him and is waiting for him to return to save the team. teammates.

After several months of training in the United States, he had already formed a deep friendship with this group of people, but now he had destroyed all of them because of his own incompetence, arrogance and impulsiveness.

And now...how can I face them? How will you face basketball in the future?

Mori Shigekuan closed his eyes tightly, and tears finally flowed out unsatisfactorily.

Goro Domoto sat on the bench with his head covered. The rest of Sanno's staff were also in a state of despair. No one noticed or thought that this 203 centimeter tall man who usually looked the most bold and rugged could actually do this. Cry until...

"Hi!"

A voice suddenly sounded in front of him.

"Is this hopeless? Big guy!"

Sen Zhongkuan opened his eyes in surprise, only to see a big hand stretched out in front of him.

That guy was wearing a red jersey and a huge number 10, something he would never forget in his life.

Shohoku No. 10, Sakuragi Hanamichi?

"I have experienced a thousand times your abyss and despair on the court, and ten thousand times your hatred and doubts about your own incompetence."

"Either give up or persist. I chose the latter, so I defeated you by luck today!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi stretched out his hand towards him, while trying to remember how Takato-san looked when he said this to him, while trying to pretend to be deep and cool.

"I think you can do it too!"

When the words came out, Sakuragi Hanamichi felt somewhat uneasy.

He really wanted to help this guy, just like Brother Gao Ren helped him, but he didn't know if he remembered the original words correctly.

Then he couldn't help but secretly glanced back in the direction of Lin Dong on the sidelines.

But Lin Dong smiled and gave him a thumbs up, as if he heard what he was saying.

It seems that what I said is okay!

Sakuragi Hanamichi breathed a sigh of relief.

But...helping people is helping people, but I have long wanted to say this like the master, and it is really fun!

Morishigekan stared blankly at this middle school boy who was trying hard to pretend to be profound and wise.

"Pfft..." His tears hadn't dried yet, but he couldn't help but laugh.

However, the matter has come to this, and crying and sadness cannot solve any problems, nor can they help coach Domoto and his teammates.

Only by persisting, I hope that one day I can prove my choice today and prove that the path chosen by Coach Domoto is correct. Only then can I get real redemption!

call……

Morishigehiro exhaled a long breath, and then put his hand on Sakuragi Hanamichi's hand: "Although I feel that these words are not in line with your temperament, but... thank you!"

"????" Sakuragi Hanamichi, who pulled up Morishigehiro, had a question mark on his face.

temperament? Where did I fall short? The expressions are exactly the same, right?

Is this an attitude of accepting help? Why can't I understand it as sincerely as when I first heard Brother Gao Ren say this?

This guy is real!

But forget it, I’ve said it anyway, and I’m satisfied...

But immediately, Morishigehiro grabbed Hanamichi Sakuragi's arm and raised it high towards the perimeter of the arena.

The Sanno players were stunned, as was Goro Domoto on the sidelines.

This guy is...

But soon, Goro Domoto came to his senses, and then the worry and sadness about the future disappeared from his face, replaced by a sense of relief. Even if I can never be a basketball coach again, at least...I have a group of outstanding disciples.

A blow? Mentality?

As a coach, you can’t lose to your disciples!

He took a deep breath, stood up and was the first to applaud.

Immediately, the players from Sanno and Shohoku also clapped.

"What did No. 10 say to him?"

"It feels like it's comforting."

"The sympathy between heroes!"

“I feel both Shohoku and Sanno are great!”

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

Clap clap clap!

At this moment, there was thunderous applause, and the cheers shook the stadium and spread far away...

——In an upset, Kanagawa Dark Horse defeated the strongest Mountain King!

——Anzai Mitsuyoshi created a myth. The Yuba team, which has not made it out of the county preliminaries for ten consecutive years, became the strongest RB!

——Xiangbei No. 10, a super genius who has only played basketball for less than a year.

——The Optimus Prime inside, the future emperor of RB!

——The strongest king who sniped Shoyo, can the Kanagawa Dark Horse continue to create myths?

The overwhelming media buzz has swept through the entire RB that night, and the accompanying picture is often the picture of Morishigehiro holding Sakuragi Hanadao Hands.

It seems to represent a handover of honor and the charm of competition.

This photo is destined to become a legend in the RB high school basketball world...

but.

The Mountain King lost, lost again!

Compared to the Sanno Industrial team that was only touted by Basketball Weekly in the summer, the strength and evaluation of this new Sanno team, as well as the attention it attracted domestically, are undoubtedly far superior.

Gathering together almost all the best players selected by RB media during the summer league, they went to the United States for training with the support of millions of dollars, and there was overwhelming publicity across the country, just to create a team that could end the myth of Xiangyang and that man.

But they didn't expect that they had already fallen in the middle of the journey before they even saw the man's face...

"Xiangbei? What kind of team is that?"

"Didn't you watch the game? That No. 10 from Shohoku is too strong. He is obviously more than ten centimeters shorter than Shigehiro Mori, but he didn't lose at all in the paint. He directly controlled the outcome of the game at the critical moment!"

"Haha, I've seen the game. I like that red-haired guy. He's very hardworking. Even Shigehiro Mori, who lost the game, admires him!"

"Is it the Shohoku that Mitsuyoshi Anzai mentioned before? It seems he is also from Kanagawa..."

"Isn't it? This Kanagawa is really a god! He won the championship and runner-up in the summer league. Could it be that the winter selection is coming again?"

"If you look at the schedule, all the Sannos have been killed, and no one in the right half can play. I feel like the finals must be another civil war in Kanagawa."

"There are only a few strong teams, Xiangyang, Sanno, Mingpeng, Hakata Shang, Daiei, Aihe... The main players of Mingpeng, Daiei and Aihe are all in Sanno, and they have been reduced to second-rate. Now even Sanno has been Get rid of it. The only thing that can make the two Kanagawa teams take it seriously during the entire winter selection is probably Hakata Shang, but Hakata Shang is still in the left half..."

"What happened to the left half?"

"There's Xiangyang in the left half! Shohoku is so strong, but I heard that they lost to Xiangyang by 104 points in the prefectural preliminaries! What do you think? Hakata Shang is just giving it away!"

"Oh my god, 104 points difference? This gap is too big..."

"Before, I saw the media talking about Sanno every day. I thought Sanno was the national team of RB. As a result, Sanno lost to Shohoku, and Shohoku actually lost to Xiangyang by 104 points. How powerful is Xiangyang..."

"After all, Xiangyang has the 43 billion strongest man from the Dragon Empire. Those football critics have commented that he is a dimensionality reduction attack among high school students, and he can even go directly to the NBA."

"... Xiangyang and Shohoku are both from Kanagawa, ah, and so is Hainan in the summer league! Is this Kanagawa a basketball monster room?"

"Haha, an absolute monster! Nowadays, it is said that it is easy to enter the national competition finals, but it is difficult to qualify from Kanagawa. Look at the runner-up in the summer league, didn't he even fail to qualify?"

"This competition is too fierce and exaggerated!"

Frankly speaking, NHK was really surprised that Sanno would lose.

Originally, the core of the entire winter selection was built around the Mountain King, and all the topics were centered around the Mountain King's battle for revenge.

Unexpectedly, they failed halfway, and they fell into the hands of a team that was rated as B-level before the game and was expected to be in the second round at most.

A large amount of early promotion expenses seem to have been wasted. Once the fans are dissatisfied with Sanno, they will also complain to NHK, which will promote Sanno. This is simply an unreasonable disaster...

The top management of NHK was very dissatisfied and spent the whole night thinking about countermeasures. Unexpectedly, a piece of news came out from an unknown source. Through the promotion of several media, it spread throughout RB overnight, causing the wind to take a strange direction. reached another level that they did not expect.

——I don’t care what tactics Domoto arranges for you, just destroy their No. 11 ace immediately after coming on the field in the second half! Use your elbows, use your feet, whatever. I guarantee it won't have any impact on your career.

——If you don’t agree, you will be fired from now on! The dismissal order from the Sanno School Board will be sent to your inbox tomorrow!

——I have a spot on a professional basketball team... Now, who of you agrees? Who objects? !

——I will fight for my career. We just want to win Xiangbei in an upright manner. We don’t want to enter the finals with shame!

——Today I am still the coach of Sanwang. We will not use your dirty methods. Regardless of victory or defeat, I will fight with Sanwang until the last moment to deliver the most exciting game to fans across the country! As for tomorrow, how you want to retaliate is your business. Please forgive me!

This is a quite complete recording, extremely clear. A strong hand is pushing it from behind. It is broadcast on all major TV stations. It is like a thunder on the ground, which makes the entire RB eat a big melon!

　Sorry, it’s too late to update today, there will be another chapter soon.
