58. First half
"I hope you're as powerful as you say, Purgatory Temple." Retracting his eyes, the praying mantis thought, and then ordered everyone in the men's basketball club to warm up.
Of course, it is not only the praying mantis who looks at Xiao You and the people in the women's basketball club, but also the members of the men's basketball club behind him. The difference is that when he looks at the people in the women's basketball club, he is confident and a little shy, but when he looks at Xiao You, he is hostile.
Of course, Xiao You and they know where that hostility comes from, after all, Xiao You's joining means that some of them must quit the men's basketball club.
The first battle that decided to stay was after the game with the women's basketball club.
Ten minutes before leaving, Xiao You and Hasegawa took the five girls to the lounge to re-emphasize everyone's role tasks, especially after Xiao You fulfilled the promise of letting Kashii Ellie be a small forward, Kashii Ellie immediately became much more positive.
"Beep!" With the referee's whistle, the players of the women's basketball and men's basketball clubs entered the court.
The lineup on the women's basketball team is: point guard Saki Nagatsuka, scoring guard Hinata Hakamata, small forward Ellie Kashii, big forward Maho Misawa, and center Tomoka Minato.
The lineup on the men's basketball team is: point guard Tomoya Okazaki, scoring guard Natsuyo Takenaka, small forward Dragon Set A, Power Forward Dragon Set B, and Center Dragon Set C.
By the way, in elementary school basketball, unless there is a tall person, the tasks of all roles except point guard are ambiguous. When the shooting guard will grab the rebound, the center will play the fast attack.
Kick off, without exception, the boys in their early 1.5 meters on the side of the men's basketball club will definitely not be able to rob Kashii Ellie, who is more than 1.74 meters tall. And Kashii Ellie, who grabbed the ball, didn't look at it, and immediately threw the ball to the backcourt, and Minato Chihua, who ran to the backcourt when she had already jumped the ball, caught the ball and scored an easy layup.
The women's basketball club took the lead.
This opening was something that Xiao You and Hasegawa Ang had thought about a long time ago, because there was no possibility of losing their jump ball. Although Natsuyo Takenaka and Tomoya Okazaki both noticed this, they were entangled by Hinata Hakamata and Saki Nagatsuka, and could only watch Minato Chika easily complete the layup.
The score is 2:0.
Okazaki Peng couldn't help but glance at Xiao You, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's really you, Xiao You." However, the beginning is not the end. ”
Tomoya thought, took the tee, took the basketball through the half, shook a few times in front of Nagasuka Saji, and found that Nagatsuka Saki was not shaken down like a rookie, so he deceived Nagatsuka Saki with a cross-step dribble and fake pass, and made a layup in the face of Kashii Ellie.
Looking at Kashii Ellie, who jumped up just by making a layup by herself, Tomoya smiled slightly, and with a movement of her wrist, a crotch pass was passed from Kashii Ellie's crotch to the center dragon set C, and the center easily scored on the board.
After doing this, Peng also looked at Xiao You defiantly.
"Sure enough, there has been no actual combat, a rookie is still a rookie."
Looking at Peng Ye's eyes, Xiao You shook his head helplessly. Indeed, the four rookies who have not fought are still rookies, and in terms of defense, except for Hakamata Hinata and Minato Chihua, the other three have too little defensive experience.
Although the defensive experience in training can be used in the game, there is still a difference between the defense in training and the actual battle, because the mentality is completely different in these two situations, for them who are only six students.
As the game continued, Minato, who was actually a small forward with the title of center, served from the baseline to Saki Nagatsuka, who was a point guard at the backcourt two-point line. And Saki Nagasuka passed to the big forward Maho Misawa who was waiting in the middle line without any hesitation after receiving the ball. After receiving the ball, Misawa Maho did like Saki Nagatsuka, and passed the ball to Hakamata Hinata Hakamata who was standing on the front two-point line before the defender stepped forward to defend, and in Natsuyo Takenaka's somewhat hesitant defense, Hakamata Hinata threw the ball to Kashii Ellie, who said to be a small forward but was actually a center in the penalty area.
With her sheer height in this game, Kashii Ellie easily took advantage of the ball above the heads of the two defenders, and then scored with ease under the gaze of the two defenders.
"Beautiful!" Seeing that the five women completed this kind of team conduction attack, Hasegawa couldn't help but applaud. Before this, Hasegawa was still a little uneasy about the team ball transfer style proposed by Xiao You, because although it can save physical strength, it has higher requirements for passing. For the five women who only practiced passing in the last three days, Hasegawa was still a little worried when they practiced it. However, seeing that the five girls completed this offensive system beautifully, Hasegawa found that the five girls could do it.
"It's only been a few days of training, and it's grown to this point, really, it's amazing to be a primary school student." couldn't help it, Hasegawa Pleiades let out such an emotion.
However, Hasegawa's words made Xiao You and the others beside him cold.
"Is this a Lolicon manifesto?" This thought instantly popped up in the minds of Xiao You and the others.
Compared to Xiao You and the others who just thought about it in their hearts, Huang Meixing grabbed Hasegawa's neck after hearing Hasegawa's Lolita con speech, and laughed: "Pleiades, you are really Lolita!" Look, as soon as you get excited, it's exposed. ”
"No, no," Hasegawa Pleiades, who found himself excited and seemed to have said something terrible, quickly explained, but unfortunately, everyone watching the game in the players' box didn't believe Hasegawa's words.
At this time, Hasegawa should be glad that this game was played behind closed doors rather than in public, otherwise, there would be rumors that there was a Lolita coach in the women's basketball club at the Comet Academy tomorrow.
However, everyone did not dwell on the question of whether Hasegawa Pleiades is Lolitacon, because the game is still going on, and this game of the Women's Basketball Club is much more important than whether Hasegawa Pleiades is Lolitacon.
The five girls seem to be a lot excited because of the success of the offense just now, and the fight is also impressive, and the score has always been the lead of the women's basketball club.
"Everyone is doing a great job, keep it up." Seeing the women's basketball club playing so well, Hasegawa couldn't help but cheer loudly for the five women.
"Stupid!! Don't do unnecessary running, physical strength!! Conserve your stamina!! Compared to Hasegawa's encouragement, Xiao You's words were like cold water that made the five girls suddenly wake up from their excited state.
That's right, physical strength! Although the five girls are playing very well now, please don't forget that compared to the men's basketball club, which has plenty of personnel rotation, the women's basketball club has no people to rotate! In other words, members of the women's basketball team must play the full 40 minutes.
Elementary school basketball games are played in two quarters of 20 minutes each.
Hasegawa also understands this very well, but he is hesitating whether to let them stay in shape to expand their lead or pour cold water on them and let them consciously conserve their strength.
Compared with the hesitant Hasegawa Pleiades, Xiao You is much more decisive. Although the five girls are in good shape now, if they don't have enough physical strength to defend in the back, then the men's basketball club can easily score. Then it is useless to play again in front of you.
If the women's basketball club has 2 substitutes, Xiaoyou is confident that it can defeat the men's basketball club that does not have a high advantage, but the reality is that the women's basketball club has no substitutes, so the members of the women's basketball club must pay attention to reserving their physical strength to play the second half! The second half was the decisive moment.
And Xiao You's words also played a role, and the five girls who were in good shape also remembered the physical problems that Hasegawa and Xiao You emphasized many times before the game, so in the rest of the first half, the five women's style of play no longer sought speed, and began to play steadily.
It was like this until halftime, and the women's basketball club led the men's basketball club by six points. The score is 32:26
Everyone went to rest. Looking at the sweaty five daughters, Xiao You shook his head and said, "Hurry up and recover your strength." Twenty minutes to go. ”
'Everyone worked hard, continued to work hard in the second half, and the victory was just around the corner.' As always, Hasegawa said good things, and Xiao You said bad things.
Long Er and the others said that it was really awkward to listen to the two of them talking like this. It's really uncomfortable to feel hot and cold.
"Yes!" However, compared to the entanglement of Long Er and the others, the five women replied spiritually. Two people who seem to have become accustomed to speaking in very different ways.
"Let's keep it up!" As a consultant of the women's basketball club, Huang Meixing said that she also wants to brush up on her presence.
"It's worthy of You, just a few days can make a motley army of four rookies and one ace so strong." Covering his head with a towel, Peng also sat on the chair and drank the sports drink handed by the substitute, and looked at Xiao You, who was sitting on the chair with his hands around his chest and maintaining a confident smile as always, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Hmm." The praying mantis in his eyes closed nodded slightly, he was also very surprised by the performance of the women's basketball club, even as an adult, he had to sigh about the coaching ability of Xiaoyou and Hasegawa. In this way, the praying mantis is more looking forward to what kind of chemical reaction Xiao You's arrival in the men's basketball club can bring to the men's basketball club.
"The tactics of the second half are very simple, just one word, drag! Resolutely play positional battles for each offense, insist on playing for 30 seconds for each offense (30 seconds for an offensive time in elementary school basketball), conserve physical strength, and even if the next person on the court is weak, you are not allowed to speed up the frequency of attack. Remember! The last three minutes are when you explode! Xiao You assigned tactical tasks to the five women who were resting.
"Well, as Yu said, we have to hit the clock next." Regarding Xiao You's tactics, Hasegawa nodded in agreement.
After the break, the two sides played, and as Xiaoyou expected, the mantis put down the main lineup and came on the bench. If nothing else, the Mantis should not have the full force on until the last 10 minutes.
"Everyone should execute our tactics well, come on!!" Hasegawa put his hands together in front of his mouth to make a trumpet shape, reminding the five women and cheering for the five women at the same time.
"Remember our tactics! If any of you can't help it! Just waiting for more practice after the game!! Looking at the men's basketball club that was all substitutes, Xiao You immediately reminded (intimidated) the five girls.
"Yes!!" When listening to Hasegawa's words, it was okay, and the five girls were still smiling, but as soon as Xiao You's words came out, the five girls shivered together. Hurriedly answered.
