"What?"

Zebei Rongzhi was shocked when he heard this, and stood up suddenly,

"Coach, you're saying Sakuragi Hanamichi is going to join the Oak Hill basketball team?"

Because of the excitement, Zebei Rongzhi's tone changed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The well-informed Zebei Rongzhi knows that the success rate of Oak Hill Middle School is outrageous.

The 12-player Oak Hill basketball team has won by 31 points in each of its 15 consecutive games against the nation's top teams. After all the hype around the series, Americans already know how talented and powerful Oak Hill's players are. In the outside world, many experts have said that as long as they enter the Oak Hill team, they will definitely be able to enter the NBA.

Last summer, Eishi Sawakita, who has the title of "Japan's No. 1 High School Student", was recommended by the Japan Basketball Association and won the opportunity to participate in the recruitment of basketball students at Oak Hill High School.

In the first investigation and physical examination and the second interview of the evaluation, Zebei Rongzhi successfully passed. As the only foreigner, he has the title of "Japan's No. 1 High School Student", and he also caused quite a stir at the scene.

The last and most important item in the evaluation: one-on-one bullfighting, according to the rules of similar age and position, the opponent chosen by Sakashi Zebei is Vince Carter.

At the end of the bullfight, the score of 10:1 knocked Eishi Zebei into the dust, making him understand the huge gap between himself and the players of Oak Hill.

Seven days of recruitment were over, and out of a total of 189 applicants, only three remained at Oak Hill Middle School.

As an eyewitness, Eishi Zebei understands that in addition to Eric Dampier who passed the evaluation by virtue of his personal strength, Tracy McGrady and Ramar Odom were left behind by Oak Hill High School because of their unlimited potential.

Now, Long Zheng took Sakuragi Hanamichi to Oak Hill Middle School, clearly thinking that his potential was unlimited and worthy of Oak Hill Middle School's careful cultivation, as for Sakuragi Hanamichi entering with his personal strength, knowing that Oak Mountain was powerful Zebei Rongzhi could only hehe.

..................

After a moment of silence, Zebei Rongzhi asked unwillingly: "Coach, what point of Sakuragi Hanamichi is worthy of such importance from Long Zheng?" ”

The subtext of Zebei is obvious, he doesn't think that Sakuragi Hanamichi's talent is above everyone, and this group includes himself.

"Although Sakuragi Hanamichi's physical strength, bouncing explosiveness and ball skills make him stand at the top of the pyramid in Japan."

Goro Domoto pondered and said, "But if you put it in the United States, it is no longer prominent. Ryumasa should value Sakuragi Hanamichi's rebounding. ”

"Rebounding?"

Power forward Shohiro Nobe questioned, as a big forward of the Mountain King, he is particularly sensitive to rebounding.

"Yes, it's rebounding."

Goro Domoto nodded, "Grabbing a rebound is a more complex technique, which consists of grabbing a position (card position), jumping, grabbing the ball in the air and the action after receiving the ball. A lot of rebounders rely on excellent positioning skills, such as our Nobe-san. But there are also extremely rare people who will have a unique talent for rebounding -- judging where the basketball lands. ”

Glancing at everyone, Goro Domoto continued, "As far as I can see, Sakuragi-san has this talent, a unique talent. ”

"Alright, let's talk about the game!"

Unwilling to let the players be hit by this, Goro Domoto changed his conversation and pulled the topic back.

"Sakuragi-san's potential, let's not talk about it, his current strength, I don't think it's under Zebei-san."

Goro Domoto's tone became more and more solemn,

"Nobe's classmate alone will definitely not be able to restrain him. Therefore, in the first half of the game, Sawakita and Kawada paid attention to the defense at all times, and could not let Sakuragi do whatever he wanted in the penalty area. ”

"Yes, Coach."

Masashi Kawada and Eishi Sawabei glanced at each other and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, let's talk about the small forward position."

With Goro Domoto's words, everyone's eyes focused on Eishi Sawakita.

"Xiangbei No. 3 Yamada Zhong, height 185 cm, weight 72 kg. In last year's national competition, Yamada still played the power forward position to assist Akagi in consolidating the penalty area. Since Long Zheng coached Xiangbei, although Yamada's resume is still written as a center, he actually plays as a small forward. ”

Looking at Eishi Sawakita, Goro Domoto continued: "Judging from the playing time and performance on the field, Yamada-san-san is only under Akagi Goken, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Mitsui Shou, and Rukawa Kaede, and his role in the team is still above Konobu Kiki and Ryota Miyagi. In the talent-rich Xiangbei team, he can occupy a starting position, which is enough to show his strength. So, Sawabei-san, for Yamada-san, you must not be careless. If possible, I would like you to completely cut off Yamada-san's ties with his teammates. ”

"Next, Mitsui Shou."

Goro Domoto smiled bitterly: "It seems that except for Long Zheng, the lineup in Xiangbei is still more luxurious than ours!" ”

"Mitsui Shou, 184 cm tall and 70 kg in weight, has been the top scorer in Xiangbei since the start of the national competition, and he is also the player with the most points in the competition. Textbook shooting posture, which I suggested you learn last year. ”

"The nation's No. 1 projection shooting guard!!

Goro Domoto looked at Mitsui Shou in the Xiangbei rest area, and his eyes couldn't help narrowing, "I think, everyone agrees with this." ”

"Yes! Mitsui's strength is beyond doubt. The captain of the mountain king, Fukatsu Issei, who had been silent, said,

"But we also have the No. 1 defensive shooting guard in the country. Isn't it, Ichino-san. Fukatsu Kazunari pressed Ichikura Satoshi's shoulder.

"That's right, Ichino-san." Goro Domoto looked at his own shooting guard,

'Today's game, you have to keep pestering him, even if it's only in the first half. Mitsui's shots must be limited, and with Sakuragi Hanamichi sitting in the restricted area, we are at a disadvantage in the fight for rebounds, so Mitsui's shots must be limited. ”

"Okay!" The head coach's request made Satoshi Ichikura dumbfounded.

For an ace player like Mitsui, it is already difficult to reduce his shooting percentage, and now it is actually necessary to limit the number of shots Mitsui can take.

However, Satoshi Ichikura also knew that once Mitsui threw away, relying on three points, Xiangbei would soon be able to increase the score. Therefore, knowing that you can't do it, you have to do it yourself.
