Chapter 33: The Watanabe Brothers
ββI was motivated when I saw the number of recommended votes, so I had to work hard to code a chapter. Although I myself feel that this kind of update is a bit tricky, the main reason is that I still have to update 5,000 words of V novels every day, and I don't have much spare energy to update this novel. However, this book will not be a eunuch, and it will be guaranteed by character, although my character is not worth a few dollars.
Honk!
"Tsuhisatake asks for a timeout!"
When the first five people of Tsuhisa Takeshi came off the field, they sat on the bench one by one, panting, and Takeyo, who was beaten by Ikegami one after another, covered his head with a towel, a little ashamed to see people.
"Wu Dai, you have done a good job, but the other party's personal ability is too prominent. You need to take a break now and think calmly about what to do when you get on the pitch and how to help the team win!" Coach Imada only started coaching a team this year, and although he was a protΓ©gΓ© of Coach Anzai in college, playing is one thing, and coaching is another. Lacking experience, he didn't know what to say at this time, so he had to pat Takeyo's shoulder to comfort him.
"Natsume, when you come on the field, you come to replace Takeyo on the field, don't ask you to prevent the opponent from killing No. 10, just want to be able to limit as much as possible, can you do it?"
Since there was not much time to pause, Coach Imada began to make substitutions after calming Takeyo, and Takeshiro's self-confidence was shattered by Ikegami, and it will take some time to return to normal.
"Yes, Coach, I will definitely do my best!"
Hiroshi Natsume is a handsome young man with a height of less than 180, and like Sprite, he is also a first-grade and serves as a small forward. After hearing that he could play, Hiroshi Natsume could be said to be very happy, but he was also a little nervous, after all, the object he wanted to defend was Ikegami.
Imada is actually helpless in his heart, but there are only two inside lines for Tsukusashi players who exceed 180, so he can only try to pick up the tall one when he is replaced, and he is afraid that if he is too short, he will be killed by Ikegami.
It's a pity that Coach Imada overestimated the psychological quality and ability of Hiroshi Natsume, Hiroshi Natsume was obviously more nervous after playing, this is his first time playing an official game, if the team is in the upper hand, it can still play smoothly, but the team is currently at an absolute disadvantage. Ikegami's performance on the court just now made him even more frightened, and he was afraid that he would be the next Takedai.
Although Natsume Hiroshi's ability is not bad, but in the end, he is a first-year freshman, not to mention the lack of experience, and now it is even more due to nervousness, which makes the team's tactics unable to operate at full strength, and the offensive fluency has dropped significantly by a notch.
And defensively, he also can't stop Chishang, and he often has to stick to this pool when defending his shots on the pool, after all, he is at a disadvantage when he is tall and has an arm span and bounces.
But Ikegami is not easy to match, at this time immediately changed the style of play, in the face of Natsume Hiroshi again and again to break through, and then the opponent is likely to assist in defense, and at this time Ikegami is often able to pass the ball to the player who has been vacant, which directly leads to the difference between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger.
Coach Imada is in his eyes, anxious in his heart, and helpless in his heart, he can only have a match to encourage Takeyo, and wants him to completely come out of the shadows.
It didn't take long for the difference between the two sides to reach more than 20 points, and it was at this time that the voice in the audience dropped a lot.
Ikegami hurriedly set his eyes on the audience, his eyes were full of vigilance, and he once again limited his strength, looking like a playmaker with accurate passing.
"It's the king of Hainan!"
"And the Buri basketball team, they are so tall!"
A small part of the audience looked at the platform behind them, only to see that there were two more players from the Hainan team and two players from the Bururi basketball team on the platform.
The two Hainan team players are the captain Takamiya Motoyu and Makimiya Shinichi, this time Takamiya Motoyu did not bring Ikeda Kazuhiro over, for fear that Ikeda Kazuhiro would offend other teams like last time, so he only brought his most valued junior Makiyi.
"I didn't expect even your Watanabe brothers to come this time, it's really rare!"
Looking at the two tall players wearing the jerseys of the Buri basketball team, Takamiya Motoyu's face was slightly dignified, and he said.
The two men came to watch the game at the heart of the Burri basketball team, and they are also brothers, with the taller brother Masao Watanabe, the center and captain of the Burri basketball team, and the younger brother Masaysu Watanabe, who is the power forward and vice-captain.
The Watanabe brothers not only have a number of basketball players in the same position in the prefecture, but also because the two have been brothers for more than ten years, the two have a tacit understanding in cooperation, and they are recognized as the strongest inside twin towers in Kanagawa.
"What's so rare about this, even your king Hainan is here, what's so strange about us in Buri coming here! By the way, how is your game?"
Masao Watanabe looked down slightly at Takamiya Motoyu with a flat smile on his face.
"Win, what about you?" both teams have just played the game, so they hurried over to watch the game of the Lingnan team, this year's Lingnan team has won by a big score every time, and this time the opponent is the weakest top four Jinjiuwu, so it is natural to come over and observe, so as not to overturn in the gutter.
"The opponent is too weak, it's really boring to win! Xiangyang won't still fight, right?" Watanabe Masayasu shrugged his shoulders and began to change the subject.
"Xiangyang's competition was held almost at the same time as here, but with their strength, it is still very easy to defeat the opponent, I heard that there is a super newcomer there!"
When Takamiya Motoyu talked about the super newcomer, he couldn't help but glance at Makishiichi, who had not spoken, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he was very satisfied with Makiyi's strength.
"Don't you have one in Hainan, we are envious of Buri. Alas, this year is the last year for our brothers, and I don't know if there will be a chance to break into the national competition this time. β
A hint of loneliness flashed in Watanabe's eyes, their brothers are all third-year players, and this is their last year. Don't look at them as Kanagawa's strongest inner twin towers, but they are also quite helpless, although both of them are very strong, but the players in other positions in Buri are simply too mediocre to help them much, which directly led to the first two prefectural tournaments only getting the third place.
And this year, the Watanabe brothers originally thought that the two were stronger than last year, and they had the possibility of competing for a place in the national competition and winning the championship, but they did not expect Hainan and Xiangyang to invite super newcomers from other counties respectively. Look at Buri again, the whole phenomenon of green and yellow, how can this not make them feel helpless, in this situation, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult for Buri to get tickets to the national competition, so the Watanabe brothers will come to observe the opponent's game, hoping to increase the chances of winning.
"The situation in this year's county competition is completely a scuffle, and it's hard to say which two teams will come out of the line! You see that this Lingnan team can pull so many points from Jinjiuwu, and the strength is not much worse than ours. β
Although Takamiya Motoyu was a little proud in his heart, he didn't want to attract firepower and become the target of everyone's target, so he pointed to Lingnan on the field to divert the topic.
"This year's Lingnan lineup is really good, especially the big man. That big man has the tallest height in the Kanagawa Prefecture competition, and he has quite good strength, not to mention the strength, this alone can bully a lot of centers, as long as he is trained well, he may be able to become the strongest center in Kanagawa. β
Masayasu Watanabe, who had not spoken, kept his eyes on the fish on the field, and analyzed it, but his eyes were full of eagerness.
"Zhengkang, don't always keep your eyes on the inside line. If you take a good look at that No. 10, last year's Lingnan lineup was actually not bad, but it lacked a point guard who could connect the team. The No. 10 has pretty good passing skills and awareness, as well as an accurate open shot, and is already a very good point guard if he can develop offensive means. If offensive means are developed in the future, they can be used with caution. β
The elder brother Watanabe Masao knocked his younger brother's head, with a slight solemnity in his eyes, he is the captain of Buri, and his personality is relatively stable, so he can see farther than his younger brother Watanabe Masao.
"That's right!" Takamiya Motoyu on the side nodded approvingly, from the beginning most of his eyes fell on Chisue, he knew very well that a good point guard would play a role in the team, and then his eyes fell on Mu Shenyi, and said: "Ah Mu, you are our starting point guard in Hainan, or you can talk about it." β
Mu Shen, who had been quietly staying on the side, nodded his head, touched his chin with his right hand, and pondered: "His consciousness and vision are quite good, the basketball is always passed to the best position, and the passing accuracy and strength have reached a very high level, which I am ashamed of, maybe only Xiangyang's newcomer Fuji Zhen can compare in terms of passing ability." β
As soon as Mu Shen finished speaking, he immediately pulled Takamiya Motoyu aside and said in words that only the two of them could hear: "Captain, have you seen it, that No. 10's ball control, speed and agility are obviously very good, but since we came over, there has been no intention of breaking through, and you can also look at the defense level of his defensive object." I suspect that the number 10 has an unusual offensive effort, but he doesn't want to show his hand in front of us, presumably in the joint final. β
Takamiya Motoyu was obviously surprised, his eyes immediately stared at Ikegami on the field, and after careful observation, he realized that Mu Shenyi's analysis was not wrong, maybe this No. 10 really has excellent offensive means.
"Ah, whether it's true or not, let's not tell the other teams. As for whether he has hidden strength, when it comes to the joint finals, he will definitely play out, and we will see when the time comes. β
Takamiya Motoyu is also cautious, but everyone has selfish intentions, and in order to keep his position as the king of Hainan, he will not tell other teams.
"I see. Mu Shen did not object, in his opinion, this is also normal, otherwise he would not have just told Takamiya Motoyu.
"Takamiya, what are you talking about?" After the two returned, Watanabe Masao looked at the two suspiciously, he subconsciously thought that the two must be talking about the game, maybe they found something.
"It's nothing, we were just discussing tactics to deal with Lingnan!"
"Oh. As soon as he heard that he was discussing tactics, Masao Watanabe suddenly had no choice, he couldn't ask Hainan to say the tactics he had just discussed, everyone was an opponent. Although he was a little skeptical of Captain Hainan's answer, he couldn't say anything.
And at this time, the game on the field ended, and Tsukutake, who was in the semifinals last year, suffered a heavy defeat, and the score difference between the two sides widened by nearly thirty points.
Ikegami glanced at the four people in the stands, and then talked and laughed with his excited teammates, as if he was extremely surprised by this victory.
Just when the Lingnan team defeated Tsuhisa Takeshi, in another gymnasium, the Xiangyang team also defeated Takeshi by a large score, and Fuji Zhen, who appeared for the first time, won the popularity of many spectators with his football skills and handsome appearance.
