Hearing this, Sakuragi nodded, straightened his bracers, walked to the recording table to report, and waited for the dead ball. After watching it on the sidelines for so much time, he already has a very clear understanding of Zhengbang's strength.

In terms of strength, Zhengbang is one line higher than yesterday's Chengcheng, but the pressure they put on Xiangbei is not as good as Chengcheng. Zhengbang's player configuration is not reasonable.

Although the overall tactics are not bad, and several players also have some special skills, but in the face of Xiangbei, which has several strong points, they can't set off any wind and waves. If it weren't for Akagi's terrible form today, they would have been beaten from the beginning.

Even though he was not interested in such a weak opponent, Sakuragi, who only showed half of his strength, immediately firmly controlled the rhythm on the court.

To Suzuki's surprise, Masakuni did not panic after knowing that Sakuragi, who was the height of the center, was at a loss, but quickly changed the formation, using Omuro and Tsukawa to wrap Sakuragi, and Haruhi went to stare at Mu Twilight and let the original point guard Yasuda empty.

Sakuragi wasn't excited enough to play, Suzuki let him play for the organization, he just made a tactical hub on the court, connecting all four teammates in series, even if there was an opportunity to play alone, he didn't expect to start.

It's just that, as the first height on the field today, even if Sakuragi is trapped, his vision has not been disturbed much, he runs with generations, mobilizes teammates and opponents, and tears a big hole in Zhengbang's overall defense line in minutes, so that Shakura and Mu Du can take turns to cut in and keep cutting points.

In the face of the activity of Shacang and Mu Dui, Zhengbang has no choice but to face it with a tighter follow-up, and in this way, Yasuda, who is wandering in the outermost way, has become completely undefended.

Sakuragi noticed this situation in the continuous scheduling, and suddenly threw his hand back and threw the ball to Yasuda behind him.

Yasuda was still a little stunned when he received the ball, but the awareness and technique he had trained over the past two years allowed him to naturally take a shooting position, staring at the basket, jumping hard, raising his arms, and pushing the ball out before reaching the highest point.

Kasuga, who followed Mu Twilight to the side, turned around and saw Yasuda's movements, and shouted in surprise, "Hell! He actually shoots threes! ”

It's just that no amount of regret can be made now. The defense against Yasuda can only be restarted from the next round.

Suzuki is very strict about the vacant shots that the team is selecting players. Usually, he usually only admonishes and points out the problems of inadequate passing, unreasonable selection of passing techniques, and dribbling to a dead end in attack and defense, but if anyone fails to score in the vacant position, he will really be criticized and punished for fixed-point pitching training.

Yasuda's lack of experience and weak awareness are his weaknesses, but his shooting skills are still quite solid.

56-68。

Xiangbei expanded the score difference to double digits.

Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Suzuki turned his attention to Akagi, who was sitting quietly on the sidelines, walked up to him and sat down, and asked, "During this time, have you come to any conclusions?" When Akagi first came off the field, Suzuki asked him to think more on the sidelines, because he had this question now.

Akagi raised his head, his face still showing confusion, and his eyes looked directly at Suzuki.

As soon as Suzuki saw his empty eyes, he knew that he had not yet gotten out of his heart, so he had to continue to communicate patiently. In fact, in Suzuki's view, if a smart person like Akagi can come out on his own, it is the best, and the addition of external forces may not have the desired effect.

Suzuki said, "I'll ask, and you answer." Do you think your performance today is good or bad? ”

Akagi didn't say a word, and slowly shook his head for a while.

Suzuki continued, "Then why did you behave so badly? ”

Akagi remained silent, and there was no reaction for a long time.

Seeing that this road was not working, Suzuki refined the problem and said, "You didn't behave like this yesterday. So is it because yesterday's opponent was weak and today's opponent is strong? Still is...... You've weakened yourself! ”

Akagi reacted slightly when Suzuki mentioned Narumi, and shook his head slightly in disagreement when he spoke of Iwamura.

Zhengbang's ranking in Tokyo is above Chengcheng, but just looking at the position of the center, Zhengbang's captain may not be stronger than Chengcheng's newcomer in terms of strength.

Although Akagi performed like two in the two games, his basic awareness, experience and judgment are still there, and it is still clear which is better and which is worse.

When Suzuki pointed out that the real reason for his abnormal performance was due to his own changes, Akagi's body shook, lowered his head, and buried his face in his palms, looking very painful, because this sentence pierced his heart.

Suzuki didn't care about Akagi's feelings, and said while the iron was hot: "And the reason why you became weak was because you didn't sleep well last night?" ”

As soon as Akagi wanted to nod, Suzuki continued, obviously even if Akagi approved of this excuse, he himself did not approve of it. He asked, "Or have you yourself lost faith in basketball?" ”

Akagi trembled, put his hand down, looked at Suzuki with red eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "What can I do if I continue to fight like this?" No matter how well you fight, no matter how long it takes, it's useless! Instead of passively giving up when there is no way out, it is better to be more proactive now, at least you can save time and choose other life routes! At least, it doesn't have to be so painful! Mr. Suzuki, the one who unveiled the end of my basketball life is you! If you've told me that the door can't be opened, why do you want me to go in the direction of that door? ”

When Suzuki heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then bent down to Akagi and said, "Akagi-san, I apologize to you first. I didn't expect those words last night to have such a big impact on you. ”

Akagi was equally stunned when he heard Suzuki's apology. He was a person who paid attention to the upper and lower ranks, and he didn't dare to accept Suzuki's apology, so he hurriedly came to help, and said, "No, Mr. Suzuki, I was wrong." At the end of the day, whether I play basketball or I don't want to play anymore is my own decision. ”

Suzuki straightened up and said to Akagi, "No, Akagi-san, you're really wrong about this. ”

"Am I wrong here?" Akagi was a little confused.

"Yes!" Suzuki said, "Akagi-san, you have to remember who you are. ”

"My identity?" Akagi was still puzzled.

"That's right." Suzuki nodded and said, "You are not only 'basketball player Akagi' now, but also 'Akagi Goxian, captain of the Xiangbei basketball team'!" There is a difference between the two. If it's just the former, if you want to give up basketball, I won't stop you, but you still have the latter identity, you are not only shouldering your own basketball career, but also the sustenance of so many people on the team for basketball! They chose you as the captain because they believe that you can lead them to achieve a good result in basketball in their three years of college! ”
