"It's actually Lingnan!" Suzuki took the freshly baked schedule, shook his head, sighed and said to Momoi, "That's it! Sooner or later, you will have to pass this hurdle, and there are advantages to playing late and fighting early. ”

Xiangbei's goal is not to mix into the top four in the county, but to play Kanagawa and compete in the national competition, so the two teams of Lingnan and Wuyuan are both opponents that Xiangbei must defeat, and now they are just switching the order.

Momoi looked at the schedule carefully for a while, raised his head and said to Suzuki: "This year's grouping is already the best for us in Xiangbei. There is only one team in the knockout stage that is as strong as Buri and it was met in the third round, so we have plenty of time to adjust our form to face the seeded team in our region, Lingnan. If it were to be changed to another division, I am afraid it would not be so easy. ”

Suzuki took another look at the schedule when he heard this, and as Momoi said, the schedules of the teams in other divisions were dangerous and abnormal.

There are no strong teams in the first and second divisions, but the last two seeded teams, Xiangyang and Hainan, can almost make other teams desperate. Last year's quarter-finals teams in these two groups were Miuradai and Kushita, and Suzuki can imagine how ugly Coach Harada and Coach Kimura are at the moment.

Although the seeded team in the fourth division, Takeshi, is relatively weak, but the teams with good strength, such as Sunrise Nishi, Minowa, Tsukutake, Toyoshina and Oda Kiri, who have won the top 16 or above in the county competition in the past two years, are crowded together in the same division, which undoubtedly turns this division into a group of death. Even if it is replaced by Lingnan and Hainan in this group, they start from scratch, and after defeating strong enemies all the way, they are already at the end of the strong crossbow in front of Wuyuan, and they may not have the strength to go further.

Looking at it this way, Suzuki thinks about it, Xiangbei is really as Momoi said, 'This year's grouping is already the best'. He shook his head, thinking in his heart that Nan Duoliang is really good at doing things, and he refuses to give people a handle at all.

In the final stage of last year's county competition, Wuyuan lost all three battles, although the two games against Hainan and Lingnan were lost by a slight disadvantage, but the world always judges heroes by success or failure, they will only remember Wuyuan's failure, but will not remember how Wuyuan lost.

Therefore, if Nan Duoliang puts Xiangbei in this division, even if there are three or four strong teams in this division, no matter how Xiangbei goes through all the hardships to break through this division, there will always be people who use Suzuki's personal relationship with Nan Tara to say something. At that time, Minami Tara and Suzuki will be at a loss for words, not to mention that they are really tired in private!

On the contrary, now, Xiangbei is divided into the Lingnan division, and there are no strong teams in the competition area that have caused loss to Xiangbei, but it is the most difficult way to be gossiped about.

As long as there is a record of defeating Lingnan, it means that it has the strength of the top three in the prefecture, and looking at the national competition, it is also possible to at least reach the top 32 and get points for Kanagawa Prefecture. has strength, has a record, this kind of team, even if it really breaks out that there are some shady scenes in the arrangement of the schedule, and there is some care, it will not become a stain, but will be praised as a "proud hand".

The national nature of the island country is like this, the king is defeated and the reality is incomparable, so there will be many things that can easily gamble on the fortune of the country.

It wasn't until Momoi nudged that Suzuki realized that he was thinking too much, restrained his thinking, clicked on the word Lingnan printed on the paper, and said, "It seems that in the next period of time, we have to put our minds on Lingnan." How's the intelligence gathering? ”

Momoi took out a piece of paper and read: "The current captain of Lingnan is center Kosuke Wakamatsuke, and the trump card is small forward Yuito Hokoto." In addition, their usual starters are power forward Makoto Yano, point guard Makichi Tsukahara and shooting guard Satoshi Kadomatsu. Among them, only Kadomatsu is a second-year player, and the remaining four, together with the sixth man, Naoki Nagano, are all third-year, and it is foreseeable that Lingnan's strength will have a big landslide in this winter. ”

Suzuki interrupted: "The problem is that we are going to face Lingnan, whose strength has not yet slipped. ”

Momoi shook his head and said, "No, compared with last year, the weakening of Lingnan's strength is already more serious. Since Tetsuya Kuroko graduated, Lingnan has not been able to find a reliable point guard. This year, we heard about three warm-up matches in Lingnan. In these three games, Coach Taoka has used four players as point guards, namely Tsukahara in the third year, Kusano and Matsumoto in the second year, and even Yonekawa, a freshman in the first year, but as far as we know, the performance of these people is not good, and the two games won are based on the strength of other positions, and 70% of the points are scored by the singles of Wakamatsu and Hoshina. In the final game, Coach Taoka made a big mistake in last year's Winter Cup, which led to the elimination of the team, played most of the half, and I think he still couldn't find the ideal point guard. ”

Suzuki scraped the tip of his nose with his thumb and said, "This is a weakness that can be exploited." However, these alone are not enough, purely in terms of strength, our Xiangbei is still a little worse. ”

Momoi smiled like a flower, shook his finger and said, "It's not all!" Judging from their player configuration, the configuration in the big forward position should be inferior to ours. Yano is relatively average in terms of interior defense protection, and the rebounding ball is all up to Kosuke Wakamatsu alone. Our Captain Maki and Wakamatsu are old rivals, and after all these years, they should be better than him. Once Wakamatsu can't get out, then Ishii will be able to make a difference here. ”

Suzuki thought for a moment and asked, "In these games, Jun Uozumi still hasn't played?" ”

Momoi clapped his hands and said, "Oops, I forgot about him." In these games, Uozumi only replaced Wakamatsu in the final stages of one of them. ”

Suzuki nodded, "That's it." Sure enough, Taoka had the idea of fighting the twin towers. Just for the height of two meters, put on the court, just the offense and defense under the basket is a problem that most teams can't solve. ”

Momoi agreed: "Yes, I remember that when Wakamatsu was in the first grade, he played the position of power forward. At this point, Ishii's position will become our weakness. ”

Suzuki smiled and said, "If they really play the twin towers, we don't have to worry. ”

Looking at Momoi's somewhat confused look, Suzuki explained, "We also have twin towers. You have to believe Akagi-san, I think his strength, in the current view, is above Yuzumi. ”
