Slam Dunk Construction

Chapter 66 Interphase
After returning, Xiangbei also bid farewell to the third-year seniors. Although Shi Ben studied well, he had to study hard if he wanted to be admitted to a good school.Their captain became Shibata, and their vice-captain became Kono. Everyone led the team to train normally and waited for the winter trials.

But before that, there is another Autumn National Games to be held. This is an alliance battle, and the competition is based on regions.The leading coach is Kanagawa's champion coach Gaotou Coach, who also selected candidates before this.

The final 12 candidates were finalized. He chose Xicheng from Hainan, Kameda, Amu, Nakao, Takagi, Miyamoto from Xiangyang, Nishitani, Fujima, Mitsui and Shibata from Xiangbei, and the remaining two were chosen randomly. Two people, the high-level supervisor thinks that these people are enough.

However, Kanagawa’s performance this time was mediocre. They failed to follow the script and rely on the thickness of the lineup and the overall strength to kill the Quartet. Instead, they played two overtime opponents in the final against Akita County, which was difficult to win, and won. The ultimate champion.

Coach Gaotou did not bring the Takeda brothers under pressure, and did not give his opponent any room for growth. This one almost capsized in the gutter. Fortunately, the result was a near miss, and Gaotou's decision-making was also good.

The Autumn National Sports is over, and the next step is the winter trials.This is not the same as the summer national competition. This time, there is only one official spot and one play-off spot, and there are only [-] teams participating.

For this trial, everyone will work harder, especially Hainan and Xiangyang, which have third-year seniors participating. They must work harder to give the seniors more stages.

Here in Xiangbei, their lineup still has five second-year players and seven first-year rookies, a total of exactly 12 players. This is the first time in the history of Xiangbei that more than ten people actually registered to participate in the winter competition.

Their lineup is as follows:
No. 4, captain, Shibata, 184cm, 75kg, SF;

No. 5, vice captain, Kono, 190cm, 87kg, C;

No. 6, second grade, Fujino, 179cm, 68kg, SG;

No. 7, sophomore, Hojo, 170cm, 55kg, PG;

No. 8, sophomore, Sakai, 167cm, 52kg, PG;

No. 9, first grade, Mitsui, 180cm, 78kg, SG;

No. 10, first grade, Akagi, 195cm, 91kg, C;

No. 11, first grade, Hota, 188cm, 81kg, PF;

No. 12, first grade, sand warehouse, 182cm, 70kg, SF;

No. 13, first grade, Mu Mu, 176cm, 63kg, SG;

No. 14, first grade, Ino, 170cm, 56kg, PG;

No. 15, first grade, Shenmu, 181cm, 67kg, SF.

This is for all the players in the first and second grades. It feels really good that they can all get the chance to play in this winter game.The schedule of the winter competition is similar to that of the national competition, only the top two lose in the first round, and the rest are single-round knockout matches.

Although these people claim to be enough for 12 players, they are not very useful.At present, the three second graders are useful, and Mu Mu, the first grader, is just a pitcher for sneak attacks.Horita can only abuse food or cooperate with Mitsui. In fact, there are three people who can be alone.

In this way, there are only so few people available in the whole of Xiangbei.Coach Anxi also knows that the average team must have at least eight or nine people in rotation in order to be stable, right?Isn't this rotation of six or seven people too exaggerated?

But Xiangbei is so bad, anyway, the junior high school students have nothing to do in the last half year, so Coach Anzai called Miyagi, Nakazawa, and Miyagawa to participate in high school training.

On the first day, Miyagi found out that there is no good point guard in Xiangbei!Didn't Mitsui play point guard?But that one is the trump card for scoring points, similar to Xiandao and Rukawa Kaede, as a point guard, he is also a cameo in everyone's eyes.

But this winter, there is no other way. Mitsui can only play as a guest point guard. As for the remaining three so-called backup point guards?Hojo Xia was the main pick, but he hadn't played a minute in the key match.

He only made an appearance in the match against Shenbao in the national competition, and only played for the last 2 minutes. His appearance directly caused Xiangbei to miss halftime in the last 2 minutes, and the rest was even more rookie.

This kid Miyagi is more energetic, and he also wants to be the starter next year.It can't be said that the coach would rather let Mitsui play the guest point guard than play the main point guard himself. It's so embarrassing to say this.

Miyagi also practiced hard, and Coach Anzai also instructed Miyagi to observe the movements of his teammates. Anyway, he is a point guard, so he can better study the direction of passing the ball in the future.

First-year rookies now come here to accompany the runners, to stimulate the old players, and the main winter games still rely on the existing players.Only Shibata, Mitsui and Akagi can score the main points, and everyone else is auxiliary.

Mitsui is working harder on organization, and he is needed to organize this winter.The other thing is to practice shooting. Mitsui's touch is also amazing. Otherwise, he can't touch the ball for two years, and he can become a three-point shooter when he comes back.

Mitsui's shooting has improved rapidly. He has newly developed the kind of direct and casual shooting, which is also very easy to shoot.The organization has also improved significantly, and the cooperation with Hota is also good.

Shibata stabilized his mid-range shooting ability, so that his attack became easier, but the organizer of the attack was almost hopeless.Although he is not alone, but the overall situation is not good, he can only be used as a terminator.

Akagi is the player who has improved the most. Under the guidance of coach Anzai, Akagi's rebounding has improved a lot.Moreover, the low breakthrough he practiced at the beginning was really full of deterrence. His fake moves were almost ready, and this move could only be used for a sneak attack.

However, for Coach Anxi, it is really difficult to arrange the starting lineup of this year's winter season, and the lineup has been arranged. If you can't substitute, you are useless. You can only play garbage time, which is not easy to arrange.

The starting three positions are determined, Akagi center, Shibata small forward, Mitsui point guard.Does this power forward use Kono or Hota?This is not an easy choice.

Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. With Kono on the court, Xiangbei's rebound control will be better, and the protection of the three-second zone will be better.These are what Kono is good at, and Horita is not good at these aspects.

As for Horita, he can assist Mitsui in offense, and his two mid-range shots from 45-degree angles have been stabilized, but he has achieved a [-]% hit rate, which is considered to have a certain mid-range shooting ability, and it is not easy to choose.

The shooting guard is currently very weak in defense. Playing on the field is equivalent to one less person defending. This is unusable.The choice of direction should be Fujino and Sha Cang, which are similar.Fujino is not too offensive to the black hole, he has a certain shooting ability near the three-second zone.

The sandbox has two zero-degree three-pointers that can pull the space.However, the comparison between him and Fujino is also similar. This defense is not as tough as Fujino, but his defense is also good, and it looks better than the comparison between Hota and Kono.

Coach Anxi also learned the essence of laziness, and he brought in the old captain Shi Ben again, so he should be lazy as an old man.He asked Ishimoto to guide Akagi and newcomer Nakazawa, and the effect was also good.

Miyagawa can practice against Kono, and as a center substitute, he is also sufficient.

The preparation period in winter is shorter, because there is an autumn national sports in the middle, and the winter competition will start soon, and Xiangbei must seize every opportunity to train troops.
