Ryonan's dual-track era

First-year students who wanted to join the Ryonan basketball team gathered on the playground.

Kitano Taku took a quick look and saw that there were about 80 people. It seemed that basketball was very popular in Ryonan.

At this time, a thin young man with a middle-parted hairstyle came over. He came to the crowd and said,"My name is Ito, the manager of the basketball team. Listen to me, the basketball team is the best club in Ryonan High School!"

"If you want to join the club, you must go through the preliminary selection."

He looked at the time,"You must run 20 laps in the playground within the specified time!"

Everyone looked at each other, feeling a little overwhelmed.

"Running? Did I hear correctly?"A newcomer said loudly:"We are here to play basketball, are we here to practice track and field?"

Ito shook his head and said:"If you want to join the basketball team, run, if you don't want to join, you can leave."

He glanced at the time,"You have wasted 30 seconds!"

Everyone was about to say something, but at this time Futian was the first to run.

With him taking the lead,���Even if others have ideas, they can’t do anything about it at the moment.......

""Beep!"

Ito blew the whistle and shouted,"Time's up! Anyone who fails to run 20 laps will be eliminated immediately!""

"What?!"

The people who were still running stopped in despair.

At this time, only 34 people completed the assessment within the specified time.

Ito observed these 34 people and smiled slightly,"Not bad, there are a few more people than last year~"

"Congratulations on passing the entry test. I hope you can still stick to it after 2 weeks!"

"Now follow me to the basketball hall!"

Ito waved his hand and took the lead to leave.

The remaining 34 people could only follow. Most of these 34 people were out of breath, and only a few were in good condition.

The most relaxed among them was Kitano Taku. He was a track and field athlete before, and he had been training hard.

This kind of assessment of running 20 laps was just a warm-up for him.

When everyone walked into the basketball hall, almost everyone's attention was attracted by one person!

This person stood out even in a basketball team with outstanding height. He seemed like a giant, shocking these first-year players.

""Ah!!" the giant shouted, and he swung the basketball and slammed it into the basket!

""Wow!"

The freshmen's faces instantly changed, and several of them even stepped back.

"Yuzumi is really tall~" Kitano Taku nodded calmly,"He does look mature~"

This giant is Yuzumi Jun, the second tallest man in the country in"Slam Dunk".

""Ito, are these the new members of the team?" At this time, a voice came over.

Kitano Taku looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a serious middle-aged man walking over. He was Ryonan's head coach, Shigeka Tanaka.

Coach Tanaka was serious and had a strong aura, which made the first-year newcomers dare not breathe.

But Kitano Taku couldn't help laughing when he saw Coach Tanaka, because the scene of Coach Tanaka being hit by Sakuragi's Millennium Kill emerged in his mind.

Ito said respectfully:"Teacher, after the assessment, a total of 34 newcomers have passed. Please give them a talk."

Coach Tanaka nodded, and he came to the first-year students and said,"I know some of you have a basic foundation in basketball. Maybe you were the main force of the team when you were in middle school...."

"But they are all useless to me!"

This sentence was shouted, and everyone trembled with fear.

Coach Tiangang put his hands on his waist and said seriously:"Now you all have to train your physical fitness for me. If your physical fitness does not meet my requirements, you will never be able to play on the court!"

These first-year players were frightened and silent, with pale faces under the intimidation of Coach Tiangang.

Coach Tiangang nodded with satisfaction,"Ito, you lead them to training!"

"is teacher!"

………

If it is as Coach Tanaka said, the content of Kitano Taku's first basketball training in Ryonan is basically physical training and physical fitness projects, such as shuttle runs, frog jumps, fast and slow jogging, etc.

After completing these training projects, the first-year players can practice dribbling and passing.

When practicing dribbling, Ito is responsible for correcting the movements of these people during dribbling.

"Be gentler with your fingers when you dribble."

"Don't stare at the basketball, look straight ahead!"

Ito instructed the first-year students meticulously. The reason why Coach Tiangang arranged him to coach was because Ito had solid basic skills.

Looking at the first-year students, Ito couldn't help but shook his head secretly,"The abilities of the new players this year are still not outstanding...."

"As expected, those strong newcomers all went to Hainan and Xiangyang...."

"Oh?"At this moment, Ito came in front of Futian, who was dribbling the ball, but gave people a rhythmic feeling.

"It feels very good~" Ito raised his eyebrows,"Although the technique is not perfect yet, it gives people a sense of anticipation."

Ito didn’t say anything and stepped over Fukuda, but at this time he didn’t notice the disappointment in Fukuda’s eyes.

It was an extreme desire to be praised.

Then Ito came to Yueyue and Uekusa, and he couldn’t help but nodded secretly,"These two people are also very good~"

""Pah, pah, pah!"

Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of dribbling.

This sound of dribbling the ball sounded like music to Ito's ears.

"Hmm?" Ito looked over immediately and saw a player with round hair and dark skin dribbling the ball.

"Coordination of body posture, hand shape, hand pressing and hitting the ball, and overall movement...It's simply perfect!" Ito opened his eyes wide,"The most shocking thing is that his dribbling point and the amount of force are exactly the same!"

He wanted to walk over to appreciate this perfect dribble, but a huge cheer interrupted his thoughts and attracted everyone's attention.

It turned out that a practice match was going on on the court, and the first-year Sendoh was playing as a starter.

Just now, he performed an aerial layup, avoiding Yuzumi's block and hitting the basketball into the basket.

This super basketball skill immediately caused cheers from everyone.

"good...Amazing!"

"Isn't he a first-year student?!"

"He actually joined the team's practice match as a freshman!"

Sendoh's situation once again aroused the jealousy of everyone.

At this time, Fukuda looked at Sendoh with a burning gaze, because the cheers from all around were also what he wanted!

"Immortal..."

Futian seems to be planning something.........

It was evening, and the first-year training came to an end. Although it was the first day of training, the training volume was unusually large.

Many players were lying on the ground unable to move, and they also had the idea of escaping the basketball team. After all, asking them to stay with this kind of training intensity for three years would be simply suicide.

Coach Tanaoka asked Ito,"How are the basic skills of the first-year rookies?"

Ito immediately said,"Teacher, Uekusa and Yueyue sitting there are both very good. They have been playing basketball before and have very good basic skills."

"Um..."Coach Tiangang has heard of these two people. They are both the main players of the middle school team.

"And the Futian..."Ito pointed at Fukuda who was wiping his sweat,"He has excellent physical fitness. Although his skills are rough, he learns things quickly. I think he is a rare talent."

"Fukuda?" Coach Tanaoka nodded thoughtfully.

Ito glanced at Kitano Taku, who was about to clean the court with a relaxed look on his face, and said,"Teacher! There is one more!"

"I think this person is very strong because his...The dribbling is so accurate!..."

"Wait a minute!" Ito was interrupted by Coach Tiangang before he finished speaking, because he saw Sendoh also wanted to follow the first-year players to leave the basketball hall.

Coach Tiangang immediately shouted:"Sendoh, don't go yet! I need to tell you about the problem in the game just now!"

Sendoh immediately showed a painful expression...

Coach Tian Gang waved to Ito and said:"Ito, you have to remember! No matter how good a player is, if he does not have firm perseverance, he cannot become a player of Ryonan!"

"Increase the amount of training tomorrow!"

After saying this, Coach Tiangang walked towards Sendoh,"You performed very well in the previous game, but you should have passed the ball instead of playing alone...."

Ito looked at Coach Tanaka, who was hesitant to speak. He wanted to tell Coach Tanaka loudly that Kitano Taku might be a talented player like Sendoh.

But he also knew that Coach Tanaka would not believe that a strong but unknown player would join Ryonan.

He would not believe it when pie in the sky fell.

"It doesn't matter, Coach Tanaka will notice Kitano sooner or later!"

Ito recalled Kitano Taku's performance during training. It was the first time he saw someone do it so well.

And he could also feel Kitano Taku's relaxed state. Even at the end of the training, he didn't sweat much.
