The position of basketball team leader is relatively simple, and if the coach is not available during normal training, he can play a role in supervising training and taking the lead, and he must also come forward in case of a game.

Coach Tian Gang is a very responsible coach, and he will never be late for training every day, so it is very easy for Ikegami, the captain.

Under the training day after day, the players of the Lingnan basketball club have improved every day, although it is relatively subtle, but it has accumulated a lot over time, even Chishang has benefited a lot, not to mention those new students.

In just one month, under the hard training arranged by Coach Tian Gang, the freshmen who joined the Lingnan Basketball Club were miserable. Although there are many new students who join at the beginning, most of them are just hobbies and can't endure hardships, so under such training, there are many applications to quit the department.

The players who retired were all alternates, and although the regular players trained just as hard, they had a chance to play. Unlike the alternate players, I don't know how much time it takes to become the main selection, and if there is no hope and hard training, a day or two may be fine, but few people can hold on for a long time.

Coach Tian Gang also turned a blind eye to this, anyway, in his mind, the alternate players are not important, most of these alternate players are novices with rough skills, and a small number of skills do have them, but unfortunately they don't have enough talent.

At the end of the day, basketball is a very talented sport. Without a certain amount of talent, it is difficult to get ahead.

During this month, in addition to training, Lingnan also organized several intra-team competitions and practice matches with other teams, aiming to enhance the experience of Lingnan's newcomers, and more or less gain something.

However, what makes Coach Tian Gang feel a headache is that several newcomers he values are more paranoid.

Grass planting, off-roading, and pipe level are more obedient, but there is no problem.

Naito's main problem is that he is not concentrating when attacking, and it is easy to make mistakes as long as he is detected by the opponent, which is mainly due to Naito's inertial thinking when playing rugby, which is difficult to correct for a while, and can only be corrected slowly.

Naito is doing this, but the results are slower and take a lot of time.

The most headache for Coach Tian Gang is undoubtedly Xiandao and Futian, Xiandao's skills are not problematic, but they are very sticky to the ball, and the basic ball will not be passed out again when it reaches his hands, which is a problem with his mentality.

In one sentence: my teammates have a lower shooting percentage than me, so why should I pass the ball!

This is the situation when Xiandao was in junior high school, and in the middle of the country, because of the strength of his teammates, he would become so unique in playing. If he wants to correct this situation, he needs to change his mind, and the difficulty is in this place.

As for Futian, this product is actually half a novice, and what he usually cares about most is the eyes of others, so this product will study offensive techniques with one mind. In normal times, Fukuda often challenges other teammates, among which Ikegami, Sendo and Yuzumi are the sufferers, and in the case of abuse, they are even more determined to practice their offensive skills. Then it naturally became a serious bias, simply put, it is to attack high and defend low.

In this case, the usual practice is fine, and you can use your hands and feet to defend, but once it is time for the game, this product will automatically enter the state of eye defense, the purpose is obvious, is to save energy to attack, so as to be in the limelight.

So the question is, how to correct Fukuda's mentality has become a place where Coach Tian Gang is distressed.

Coach Tian Gang also talked to Futian about this, but the effect was not good, which made Fukuda a little annoyed and angry.

In Ikegami's view, Fukuda just cares too much about other people's eyes and likes to be in the limelight. And if you want to be in the limelight, offense is naturally far better than defense, especially adrenaline-pumping slam dunks.

Fukuda did the same, obviously developed the mid-range shot, but the data recorded in a training game showed that as long as there was a chance to dunk, he would try not to end it with a mid-range shot and a layup.

Seeing this mentality, Ikegami wondered and at the same time took it for granted, after all, Fukuda in the original book was the same.

In basketball defense, although experience is very important, mentality and physical fitness are undoubtedly more important, as long as Fukuda corrects his mentality, with his excellent physical fitness, the defense is not too bad overall, at least it is much better than eye defense.

In order to correct Fukuda's mentality, Ikegami also communicated with Coach Tagaoka, and finally decided to let Fukuda sit on the cold bench when the county competition was implemented, until Fukuda couldn't help but want to play and then give him certain indicators, so as to correct his mentality.

In the afternoon of this day, it was time for basketball training again, and when Ikegami and Yuzhu entered the indoor basketball hall after class, they found that Coach Tian Gang was standing there solemnly, his face a little more serious than usual.

As a coach, although Tian Gang leads by example, he never slackens. But in order to highlight the majesty of the coach, he often appears only after all the players have arrived, and today's situation is undoubtedly more abnormal.

"Could it be that the grouping of the county competition was produced?"

Ikegami's mind was lively, and he immediately thought of the upcoming prefectural competition. In his opinion, at present, only the county competition Tian Gang coach will be like this.

Not to the surprise of Ikegami, after all the players selected for the Lingnan Basketball Club arrived, Coach Tagang took out a piece of paper, which was the grouping of this year's Kanagawa Prefecture Competition.

"The grouping situation of this year's prefectural competition has been generated, Hoshino Sakura, you come and put this group duel table on the wall!"

Coach Tian Gang directly called the basketball manager Hoshino Sakura, and then instructed her to work, so that other Lingnan players could better observe the grouping situation.

Since Lingnan was the runner-up in last year's county competition, this year's county competition will naturally become a seeded team, and only need to play one game against the top eight teams produced by this group to enter the joint finals.

This situation is undoubtedly very easy and not much risky, but there are advantages and disadvantages, after becoming a seeded team, there will undoubtedly be a lot of missed games, which is quite unfavorable for the new Lingnan students who lack the experience of the game.

After Hoshino Sakura pasted the grouping table, the selected players of the Lingnan basketball club formed a circle and set their eyes on the grouping table.

Due to the results of last year's county competition, Hainan, Lingnan, Xiangyang and Buri have all become seeded teams in their respective groups, of which Lingnan belongs to the second group.

In the second group, there is also a team in the quarterfinals last year, which is Wuyuan University. However, Chigami was dismissive of this team, and his eyes mainly fell on another team in the same group, that is-Xiangbei!
