In the original book, Shizuoka Prefecture's Tsunekoto High School and Xiangbei, which was trained in the summer, played three practice matches, with a record of one loss, one win and one draw. Judging from the record, Changcheng High School does have quite strong strength, and being able to play smoothly in the first round of the national competition is enough to show their demeanor as an old strong team.

However, judging from the personnel on both sides, during the training camp in Xiangbei, without Sakuragi Hanamichi and coach Anzai Guangyi, they can still play such a result with Changcheng High School, which occupies the home advantage, and the strength of Changcheng High School may really not be as good as Xiangbei High School, which has five tigers.

So what about Changcheng High School a year ago? What is the strength again? Can Xiangbei, which has the main force this time, still be able to play a tie with Chang Cheng?

……

In the lounge, Tsuyoshi Yukimura's voice echoed in the air.

"Listen, out of all the players in Chang Cheng, there are three people who deserve our attention. Tang boat, 178 cm tall. Chang Cheng's first-year rookie this year, like Miyagi, is a full-time point guard position. ”

"Point guard?" Miyagi touched his chin, muttered the opponent's message twice, and said, "Isn't that what you mean?" ”

A shallow smile rose into the corner of Yukimura's mouth and asked, "How?" Is Miyagi confident? The other person is in the same first grade as you. ”

Miyagi laughed when he heard this: "When I played against Hainan and Xiangyang, didn't you question whether I had confidence, captain?" ”

"Hahaha!" Everyone laughed after listening to the conversation.

After the laughter, Yukimura continued: "Miko Shiba, 188 cm tall, big forward position, he will be defended by me. ”

"Miko Chai ......" is one of the few memorable supporting roles in slam dunk, and Fuji has a deep impression of this person, but he has always felt that his strength is very vague.

Yu Zichai's performance in the practice match with Xiangbei is still very objective, and it is not difficult to see his strength from his few shots, but the fact that he was single-handedly beaten by Mori Shige Kuan of Mingpeng Industry in the national competition is the root of his fame and criticism.

Finally, there is Chang Cheng's captain Kuwata, one of Chang Cheng's main scorers, a striker swing man with a wealth of experience and solid skills. It is worth mentioning that Miko Shiba and Kuwata were the top two scorers in this year's Shizuoka Prefecture Tournament. ”

"If it's a front guard, leave it to me!" Fuji thought about it and said, taking the initiative to choose his opponent.

Yukimura and Akagi looked at each other and nodded in agreement, admitting, "Indeed, Fuji is the most suitable person in the team. ”

……

In the afternoon, Chang Cheng and Xiangbei gathered on the basketball court, changed into their jerseys for practice matches, and the players warmed up with layups on the court in an orderly manner.

Ayako and her senior sister Oda are outside the venue tidying up rest supplies, such as towels and drinking water. In addition to the two beautiful managers and Xiangbei substitute players, there are also individual "idle people" outside the field in Xiangbei.

"I said, Mari, can't you really come and help us?" Putting down the bottled water that was full of mountains of bottled water in her hand, Ayako said dissatisfied.

Mari Kawai stood next to him and said with a smile: "I'm from the news agency, not the basketball department, and I'm here with you this time for the task of recording the video of the game, don't look at me like this, I'm also very busy!" ”

Ayako squinted and complained: "You guy, the video recorder was also lost to a classmate in the same department, and you were standing there idle, where are you busy?" ”

Mari Kawai calmly retorted, "I said that it's not just the task of the news agency, so of course you won't understand my busyness. Hmph, in order to support Fuji-kun's training camp this time, I have done a lot of preparation! ”

"Huh? Fuji-kun? ”

Mari Kawai glanced at Ayako and said, "Listen, I'll be in charge of Fuji-kun's water and towels, and you only need to be in charge of the other team members' things." Look, I'm still very empathetic, right? ”

"Heh... Hehe! Ayako was completely speechless, and she coped with it without smiling.

At this time, the first whistle on the court sounded, the game was about to begin, and the players from both sides returned to the rest area to make final adjustments.

Arrangement is also an important part of the game, and Chang Cheng, who has taken advantage of the home field, Xiangbei, who has no coach to follow, can only suffer this loss alone, and the players will adjust and arrange it by themselves. At this time, the backbone of leadership skills is very important, and Yukimura, who is eloquent and dares to communicate, and Akagi, who is a benchmark for the team's strength, need to come out and provoke the beams.

In the starting lineup of the first half, Xiangbei maintained the situation of the finals of the county competition, hiding Mitsui, who had poor physical strength, on the bench first, and the rest of the main four and Takao formed the starters. The opponent is a strong team in the country, but the tactics of betting on the first half of Hainan are not suitable for dealing with Chang Cheng, Xiangbei is not clear about the opponent's style, and the information that can be obtained is just a data-based number.

Therefore, in the first half of today's first practice match, Xiangbei adopted a more conservative and tentative policy. Compared with Xiangbei, Chang Cheng, who also doesn't know much about his opponent, can of course use a set of lineups that are inclined to test to protect their complete strength, but for various reasons, Chang Cheng has sent five main players in one go.

The reasons are none other than the following, one is the coach's attention to the opponent, and the team that can play back and forth with Hainan is worth facing up to Chang Cheng, which is why the coach will choose Xiangbei as the training object for Chang Cheng. The second is the home advantage, the players present are all enthusiastic, jealous and hateful, and it is precisely because Chang Cheng occupies the home advantage that he is unwilling to lose to the opponent.

Beat the opponent in the first half, this is what Chang Cheng and the five people are thinking at the moment.

Both starters came out in unison, and when the second whistle blew, the practice match kicked off with the start of the jump ball.

Tsunekoto's center lacked height and lost to Akagi in the jump ball, who won the basketball in one fell swoop and passed it to Miyagi as soon as he landed.

Miyagi received the ball and launched a fast attack, just after half time he met Tang Chuan wearing the No. 33 jersey, Tang Boat's appearance is more ordinary and generous, judging from the details of his initiative to find Miyagi, Chang Cheng still knows some basic information about Xiangbei.

Miyagi stopped a little, and then used a feint to shake off the soup boat, in the face of Miyagi's extraordinary speed and endless tricks, the soup boat was the first to lose, after all, Miyagi has faced first-class point guards like Fujima and Amu, this time facing a guard who is also a first-year grade, Miyagi naturally trusts himself.

After throwing off the soup boat, a wave of cooperation between Miyagi and the inside line gave the team two points to get off to a good start.

But after that, Chang Cheng's Yu Zichai also immediately exerted his strength, leading the team to fight back strongly, scoring twice on the inside line and scoring four points, and then Chang Cheng's captain Sang Tianzhong shot and accumulated two more points.

In the first 1 and a half minutes, Xiangbei played 2-6, 4 points behind Chang Cheng.

Chang Cheng's advantageous start made Chang Cheng's bench excited, and they all seemed to be ignited with enthusiasm, howling constantly. Coach Chang Cheng, who was the only one who was quiet, sat on the sidelines with a calm face, and thought with some suspicion: "Strange, Xiangbei's strength should be more than that." ”

It's really more than that, after being shot and scored by Kuwata in person, Fuji also ignited his fighting spirit and took the initiative to ask Miyagi for the ball.

Sangtian is a style that doesn't talk much in the game, and on the scoring data of Xiangbei, Fuji, a newcomer, has a strength that does not meet his qualifications, which is enough to attract Sangtian's attention.

Like this, I like to speculate on the psychology and habits of my opponents, and Fuji has met a few, and Kaoru Kawaga of Minowa High School is such a person. It's just that Fuji is not very willing to speculate about this kind of thing in his heart, and he now prefers retaliatory measures against the slap in the face.

As soon as Fuji received the ball, he suddenly accelerated and rushed into the inner line, Kuwata met Fuji's sharp eyes, and put the defense line again and again, and the opponent's momentum was simply unstoppable.

But at this moment, Fuji braked, his body stopped suddenly, and the basketball jumped through under his crotch, and then he picked up the ball and made a shooting motion.

Sang Tian's body also took two more steps back due to inertia, and as soon as he stabilized his body, he raised his eyes and saw Fuji's movements, and he was immediately shocked.

In the middle of his thoughts, Fuji had already jumped out of his hand and tossed the ball out, and less than a second later, the basketball crashed into the net.

"Isn't this what the captain did just now?" At this time, on and off the field, there were Chang Cheng people who reacted.

Sang Tian frowned slightly, glanced at the back of the defender, and thought, "That action just now is indeed exactly the same as what I did a moment ago." Was he deliberately provoking? ”

In the time after the first half, Fuji's actions completely changed Kuwata's perception. After that, Fuji activated the [Imitation] skill seven more times, and succeeded four times. Three of the imitation objects are Kuwata, whether it is a layup or a mid-range shot, it can be 100% repeated, giving people the general feeling of watching replays.

But the most frightening thing is not the imitation of Kuwata's four times, but the last imitation of Miko Chai's movements.

About 15 minutes in the first half, Fuji was under Chang Cheng's basket, perfectly reproducing Yu Zichai's footsteps and feints under the basket, and even the action of turning around and dunking was the same. It was this goal that made Xiangbei achieve a reversal in the score for the first time, and for Fuji people, this was also the first time he used a dunk in a confrontation game, although it was not an official game, but it also had a certain commemorative significance.

It was this goal that brought visual effects and meanings that shocked the audience!

In the last five minutes of the first half, Chang Cheng made their final arrangement, and Tang Chuane, who had been suppressed by Miyagi, seemed to suddenly open up, and frequently shot on the outside, scoring three three-pointers in a row. Xiangbei hurried to catch up, but still ended the first half with a 6-point deficit.

At halftime, Fuji suddenly found a very bad situation, without Sakuragi Hanamichi, a natural Magneto, how should he mobilize the morale of the entire team in Xiangbei? Just Sakuragi Hanamichi's face, especially his smiling face, has a very mocking effect, just let Akagi, Rukawa, Mitsui and Miyagi think about it, and their fighting spirit is doubled!

Now that Sakuragi is away, it's hard to add such a buff to the team.

But fortunately, Xiangbei also hid Mitsui's hand in the first half.
