When school first starts, it's always going to be busy.

After Suzuki finished writing the last word, he put down his pen, stretched, and saw that it was getting dark, so he packed his belongings, put the work that needed to be taken home in his bag, and walked towards the basketball hall with it.

Today is the day when most of the clubs in the school resume their activities, but the basketball team has been assembled as early as the beginning of the year, and recruiting new recruits is just a routine.

Now in the past, even if he finds that there are one or two good seedlings who have come to Xiangbei, it will not make Suzuki feel extremely happy.

Because, the best newcomer in Kanagawa has been training with the team for a long time.

Sakuragi Hanamichi in Lihai, Rukawa Kaede in Funogaoka, Yohei Mito and Yuji Daikusu, among the best players in the last Kanagawa Prefecture junior high school, except for Kiyota Nobunaga affiliated to Hainan University, who was directly promoted to the school, and Wako's Oda Ryumasa was recruited by Takeshi, the rest of the four all joined Xiangbei.

In particular, the addition of Sakuragi and Rukawa directly made Xiangbei a thorn in the side of the Kanagawa powerhouses, and a great enemy with a similar level to Xiangyang.

Thinking of this, the corners of Suzuki's mouth inadvertently turned up, complacent about his advance layout. These days in the office, when he can't help himself, Suzuki laughs out loud several times, which makes Ono and other colleagues frequently look sideways, thinking that he has a mental problem!

When I came to the basketball hall, I opened the door, and the captain Akagi was giving a lecture inside.

After last year's summer tournament, Akagi took over the captaincy for almost a year, and now he speaks like a bell and is full of power.

The accidental injury in the Winter Cup did not destroy Akagi's confidence, but instead polished him more and more calmly, like a high mountain, making his teammates feel at ease.

Seeing Suzuki come in, Akagi nodded to him, and waited until he had finished saying everything he needed to say, and then brought the newcomers to Suzuki, introduced his identity to everyone, and then briefly told Suzuki about his name and characteristics.

Akagi has a good memory, and without looking at the registration form, he can already remember everyone's names, as well as the location they just introduced, and add their own comments.

And Sakuragi, Rukawa, Mito, and Daikusu are already too familiar to be more familiar, and they are doing basic training with the old players on the side, but they are exempt from this.

Anyway, it is a team that has entered the national competition twice, and there are not many newcomers to the Xiangbei basketball team this year, leaving four Sakuragi, and there are more than a dozen.

However, Suzuki didn't have much hope for them.

Xiangbei is no longer what it used to be, and the Kanagawa heroes are also unrecognizable, and then rely on the memories left over from the previous life to eat the old book, thinking that experienced newcomers can come in handy with practice, but it no longer works.

Last year's failures have proven this.

Maori's quality is good, and the foundation is okay, but after Akagi was injured, he found that he couldn't stand up to it, and he was completely beaten by his opponent, and he didn't get used to it until two or three games later, but it was too late at that time, and Xiangbei could only hate it in the county competition.

This is the reason why Suzuki asked Sakuragi to join the team in advance to participate in joint training.

Kentaro Ishii, Sazuoka Tomo, Kuwata Nobori, Kanna Nobuo four are Akagi focused on introducing to Suzuki, the first three have basketball skills, and they have also played in the increasingly popular county league, and the last one has reached a height of 185cm, well-proportioned, and looks full of potential.

It's just that neither Akagi nor Suzuki thinks that these four can catch up with the Sakuragi four, who have been training with the team for a long time. Even Mito and Daikusu, who are relatively average among the four, are a notch better than them.

And the remaining eleven people, in Suzuki's opinion, if there is no excellent performance, maybe it will not be until the third grade, and one or two will get a chance to play.

The remaining two of the Wako quartet, Takamiya and Noma, still played with Mito, Daisu, and Oda last summer until they were planted in Sakuragi's hands.

They knew Sakuragi's horror, and they also knew that they were constantly chasing after Sakuragi, who was only one line behind him, and they couldn't do it like Rukawa, and they had no intention of continuing to develop in basketball, so at the beginning of the year, they refused Suzuki's request for a training camp, and only wanted to cheer for their friends on the sidelines.

Xiangbei is now strong and strong, Suzuki has to worry about the list of 12 people, and he can't wait to sign up even from No. 1 to No. 3, so he doesn't force them and let it be.

has been mixed training, the strength of the old players Suzuki knows in his heart, and the progress of Sakuragi among the newcomers does not need to be tested, so there is no need to have a game of new and old players this year, Suzuki directly pointed out 10 people, mixed up, and played an intra-team training match in front of a group of newcomers.

The five members of the red team are center Mori, power forward Takasu, small forward Sakura, point guard Mito, and scoring guard Yamada.

The five members of the white team are center Hotta, power forward Daisu, small forward Rukawa, point guard Mizuno, and scoring guard Wu Dai.

Captain Akagi, team vice-captain Twilight and ace Sakuragi did not appear. In the second grade, there were only two students, Mori and Yamada.

The advantage of the red team is on the inside, while the advantage of the white team is on the outside, and Suzuki deliberately caused the two teams to have their own strength in terms of strength, while the overall situation is relatively balanced.

The game also went as Suzuki had expected, with the white team relying on Rukawa and Takeyo scoring to launch a fierce attack from the start and take the lead, while the red team played steadily and relied on their control of the rebounding ball to gradually catch up with the score.

The combination of Mori and Takasu completely suppressed Hotta and Daisu, and Rukawa saw that the situation was not good and wanted to increase the number of rebounds, but Sakura's three-point shot allowed him to stay on the outside line on the defensive end, and watched Mori take it under the basket.

After two months of joint training in winter and spring, Liuchuan has fully adapted to the rhythm and intensity of high school basketball, making this leading defensive player in northern Hunan feel a little unable to keep up.

It's just that offense can be seen by talent, while defense mostly depends on experience, Shakura's style of play that is brilliant when given a little sunshine, has no effect on defense, and is absolutely impossible to defend against, also makes Rukawa always limited to mutual explosions, and cannot fully give full play to his advantages in strength.

Because it was a training match, Suzuki gradually began to make substitutions after 5 minutes, and Ki Dusk, Ino, Yasuda, Tsunoda, Shiozaki, Nishimura and others took the court one by one to show the results of their training camp.

Only Akagi and Sakuragi are always pressed on the bench, they are the absolute main force and do not need to be evaluated.

What the newcomers see is that the seniors are ridiculously strong, and these pioneers are also very powerful in the same period, and they are not at the same level as themselves.

What Suzuki saw was that there was still only one Maori available in the second grade, and the rest of the children were busy and difficult to take on the big responsibility.
