Chapter 35: Fighting Spirit Xiangyang
A week later, the Kanagawa Prefecture Central Gymnasium, after all, was a joint final, and the stadium was full, and even there were many spectators in the stands, even if they didn't see it very clearly.
Among them, the Xiangyang team's support group can be described as huge, only to see the Xiangyang peripheral players sitting on one side of the audience with Xiangyang unified basketball jackets, these peripheral players each holding two large plastic bottles in their hands, under the organization of one of them, the momentum can be said to be quite huge, the momentum is overwhelming, and the gymnasium will form a semi-home environment of Xiangyang. At least it is much more organized than the audience who supported Lingnan, and the effect is greater.
In addition, both teams have their own slogans, which are Lingnan's courage and courage and Xiangyang's fighting spirit.
As one of the seeded teams in Kanagawa Prefecture, the strength of the Xiangyang team can be said to be quite strong, in addition to the starters, the bench is basically a high-quality substitute, and in the substitute lineup, Lingnan is indeed not comparable.
The Xiangyang team mainly plays the traditional offensive and defensive style of play - joint defense, mixed defense and strong attack inside, that is, the style of play formed after the tacit understanding of the team, and only the tacit understanding of five people on the field can play the greatest power. This is also the reason why even if there is a high-quality interior player like Hanagata on the bench, it will take a year or two to transition before he can play the starter, and of course, Kenji Fujima, who is also in the first year, is not counted.
In addition to Fuji Zhen's strength is indeed stronger than the original starting point guard, there is also Coach Xiangyang in order to let Fuji Zhen from other counties join the Xiangyang team, and he may also have a starting condition. But fortunately, Fuji Zhen did not disappoint, although the operation of the team is still relatively rusty, but his strength not only makes up for the vacancy, but also makes this year's Xiangyang a little stronger than last year, this is the change brought by the core level players.
In this game, the Shoyo team sent a relatively small lineup, namely center Junichiro Nozawa, 192 cm, power forward and captain Taro Aso, 185 cm, small forward Matsushima Kazuto, 180 cm, scoring guard Yuya Kimura, 176 cm, and Kenji Fujima, who is now only 173 cm.
Among the five starters, although Kenji Fujima already has the core strength, due to the short time, the core of the team is not him. It is the captain of the power forward, Taro Aso, who is a pure interior offensive player at this time, who is known for his versatile and flexible interior steps and many techniques, and is also recognized as the No. 1 offensive interior line in Kanagawa Prefecture.
As for Lingnan on the other side, he sent a starting lineup that had been decided a long time ago, namely Uozumi , Inoue Toyo Yoshi, Sasaki Oribe , Ozawa Yusaku and Ikegami, of which Ikegami was the defender and Fuji Zhen was opposed, but it was Coach Takaka who asked people to take a video in Xiangyang's eight-in-four game, and after studying it, he planned to let Ikegami kill Fuji Zhen this point, in order to disrupt Xiangyang's team cooperation. He knows very well that according to Xiangyang's traditional style of play, the point guard is the most important point.
"Chishang, it's up to you whether you can win this game or not, don't need to suppress your offense anymore, let everyone take a good look at your true strength!" Taoka Shigeichi's face was full of grimness, and when he thought of Chisue's true strength, Tianoka Shigeichi's heart became hot, although the starting lineup of the Lingnan team was not as good as Xiangyang, but as long as Chishang was there, it was not impossible to defeat Xiangyang.
The other members of the Lingnan team are also not surprised, after all, during this period of time, Ikegami's strength has been fully recognized by his teammates, and he has faintly replaced Yusaku Ozawa as the core of the team, even Yusaku Ozawa has remained silent and has not raised any objections.
"Don't worry, Coach!" Ikegami nodded, looking at Fujima sitting across from him with a sneer, he had long wanted to see the strength of what would be known as the Kanagawa Duo in two years.
"Very well, this is a ticket to the national competition and I hope you don't get distracted by other factors. ”
Shigeichi Taoka nodded with satisfaction, and instead swept over the starting five, his words meant something, but he was afraid of off-field factors interfering, his eyes mainly paused on Ikegami and Yuzumi, he was afraid that the two first-year players would be nervous because of this situation.
If Ikegami knew what Coach Tagang thought, he would definitely feel helpless, he had experienced many battles bigger than this in his previous life, and the gap between the off-field atmosphere of the college league and the high school league was not small, so he would not be disturbed by this off-field factor.
However, compared to the plain pond, Yuzhu was obviously much nervous, and it was the first time he had experienced this kind of battle, and his ears kept echoing with the sound of Xiangyang's mighty cheers.
"Yuzhu, it's just a game, just keep a normal heart, we are here. "On the court, Ikegami patted Uozumi's broad shoulder.
Ikegami's encouragement had little effect, and Yuzhu felt that his muscles were still a little stiff, so he couldn't help but touch his head and said, "I know it too, but I'm nervous." ”
"It's okay, it's going to get used to it in a while, you just need to make fewer mistakes. Hey, look who's coming. ”
Chishang is also helpless, except for a very small number of big-hearted players, ordinary people obviously have to have a process of adaptation.
Yuzhu hurriedly looked for Ikegami's gaze to the stands on the side, only to see a giant who was not much shorter than him standing on the stand with his hands crossed, but it was the gorilla Akagi Goken. And beside Akagi Gangxian, Akagi Haruko and Mu Du Gongyan are also there.
"It's Xiangyang, this atmosphere is too terrifying. Mu Du Gongyan looked at the Xiangyang cheerleaders who were knocking on the Coke bottles on the field, full of shock.
Akagi Gangxian nodded sympathetically and said, "Yes, I don't know if Lingnan can survive this." ”
"Brother, are we here to cheer on Lingnan today?" At this time, Haruko Akagi, who was a little nervous on the side, asked, and she ignored the thick atmosphere on the field.
"Sort of, after all, they cheered us on last time we played. Hey, Mitsui, why are you here too?"
When Akagi Goken spoke, he felt a tap on the shoulder, and his face was full of surprise when he saw the person coming, because the person who came was Mitsui Shou, who had never dealt much with him.
At this time, Mitsui Shou's feet were not yet complete, he was still on crutches, and his original flowing hair had been replaced by an inch head, a little less feminine, but a little more masculine.
"If you can come, can't I come! Alright, the game is about to begin. When Mitsui spoke, his eyes were fixed on Ikegami.
And at this time, maybe it's because of Akagi Gangken, although Yuzumi is still nervous, but the nervousness has also been relieved to a certain extent, which makes Ikegami a little grateful to Akagi Gangxian, thinking about whether to secretly mail a pack of bananas to the gorilla one day.
