Looking at it, Yuzhu's face also became solemn.

As the game progressed, Smith showed even more strength. Although his offensive area is limited to the penalty area, the way he scores is not just a simple "top open-hook", his inside footwork is also solid and fast! Sometimes he'll even catch the ball near the free throw line and attack the basket! It's only a little shorter, but it's much faster than the other side!

"He's improved a lot." Coach Taoka couldn't help but admire, "Two years ago, everyone said that his skills were very rough, but looking at his current performance, even if he couldn't perform on the stage of the national competition last year, he has not slackened at all in the past two years of training. ”

It's not just training, it's talent. You must know that Yuzhu has suffered a lot in the past three years, but his offensive footsteps still can't come out, and when he holds the ball in the low position, he can only squeeze away from the opponent and then shoot, and he still lacks spirituality when he turns. Of course, this may also have something to do with the height advantage of Uozi in the prefecture, and his style of play is the most direct and efficient choice in most situations, but in the long run, he has developed a habit and is inevitably a little powerless when facing a strong center, as can be seen from his repeated disadvantage in the duel with Akagi.

Of course, after the team added Hikochi and Fukuda also returned, Coach Yuzumi's tactics were more positioned in the role of defensive gate.

Looking at the field again, Smith is also the inner gate of Jinshan Commercial.

Kingsoft Commercial's outside defense is more fierce against the ball holder, and they are not afraid of being broken through at all, because there is still a Smith waiting for the opposite side on the inside!

In the opening five minutes, Smith had already delivered four big hats. Smith's block fanned the ball far away every time, and the defender of Kingsoft Commercial could defend and attack directly with the ball. With the fearless pressing on the outside and Smith sitting on the inside, Kingsoft Commercial's offensive and defensive transitions are also very fast, and they can often beat opponents with an unstable foothold.

Jinshan Business at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends took the initiative, and He Tianqiao's players were about to not play in the face of the collapse.

At halftime, 52:21, the strength of the two sides is not on the same level.

"Jinshan Business is really strong." Grass Planting's tone is serious.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of, you won't be able to beat us." Off-road is not afraid, but a little eager to try.

Hikoichi sat quietly alone, as if thinking about something.

There were no waves in the second half either, and Kingsoft Commercial continued their performance. And the few spectators on the sidelines also cheered for Smith's explosion from time to time, and they kept sighing that this game was worth it, but they didn't expect the little-known Jinshan Commercial to have such a strong strength.

In the end, Kingsoft Commercial won the game 106:47. Smith chipped in 48 points, 26 rebounds and nine blocks.

But Hikoichi's attention is on another person, Kanayama Commercial's point guard, No. 5 Nara Yukio.

People will always subconsciously make comparisons or pay extra attention to what is related to themselves, and Hikoi is no exception, he glanced at this No. 5 who played the same position as himself twice, and wanted to see what the characteristics were, but looking at it, he found a problem.

In this game, Nara Shev only scored 16 points and 13 assists, and other statistics were blank, including turnovers.

Hikoichi initially noticed the anomaly because of the time he held the ball. In Japanese high school basketball, the ace player's holding time is undoubtedly the longest, but the longest holding time of Kanayama Commercial is not Smith, it is actually Nara Snowo!

Some would say that he is a point guard, and he naturally holds the ball longer than center Smith. But think about Xiangbei, Darong and even the King of the Mountains, their point guards don't hold the ball for long. In a game of this level, the real point guard who holds the ball for a long time has to be a team like Hainan and Xiangyang, which has the point guard as the core.

After discovering that Nara Yukio had been holding the ball for a long time, Hiko began to pay attention to him.

Gradually, Hikoichi discovered that Nara Yukio was the core of Kanayama Commercial's offensive end! Unbelievable.

Nara directed Kanayama Commercial's offense, deciding when to pass the ball to Smith and when to use other tactics. Otherwise, just having a big man on the inside line, as soon as he is targeted by the bag, it will be over.

Moreover, Nara Shev scored less in this game, but it does not mean that he does not have the ability to score. Judging from his few scores, his physical fitness is average, and he rarely chooses singles when attacking with the ball, but basketball is not a bullfight, there are 10 people on the court. Nara is very flexible, taking advantage of the cover of his teammates and even opponents, and always finds an opportunity to shoot in an open space.

Of course, compared with scoring, his greater role is to connect the team and control the overall situation. His one-handed passing is also elusive, often guiding his teammates out of open space.

After the win, Jinshan Commercial didn't celebrate much, shook hands with He Tianqiao and walked directly to the locker room. It doesn't look like winning the first game is something to celebrate for them.

"No. 5 Nara Yukio, third grade, height 183cm, weight 66kg." Coach Taoka muttered the information in his hand, "But it is strange that Kanayama Commercial did not have a record of his appearance in the previous games this year." Such a player, it shouldn't be."

It seems that Coach Taoka also noticed something.

------------------------------------------------

At night, the hostel where the Lingnan team stayed.

Coach Taoka also didn't prepare Ma Miyanishi's materials, so everyone had nothing to do after eating, so they could only go back to their rooms early to rest. The game will be played at 10:00 tomorrow morning, and Coach Taoka has given a death order that no one is allowed to go out, and everyone can only be stuffy in their rooms.

In the room, Fukuda was lying with his eyes closed, Hikochi was also lying, staring at the ceiling in a daze, and Guan Ping was sitting cross-legged, flipping through a magazine. As if they had gone to Daei for joint training before, the three of them still lived in one room.

In the room, there was only the sound of Guan Ping turning books from time to time and the steady breathing of the three of them.

"Wow!" Guan Ping picked up his hand and closed the magazine.

"What? Don't watch it? Hikoichi could feel the irritability in Guan Ping's movements.

"yes, I can't stand it." Guan Ping smiled awkwardly.

"It's a national competition tomorrow, nervous?" Hikoichi asked.

"Well, it's a little" Guan Ping scratched his head, "But I don't know if I can play yet, haha of course, even if I can't play, I will cheer for everyone on the sidelines!" ”

As a substitute, you still think a little differently from the starter.

"Don't you want to be lazy," Yan turned to one side and looked at Guan Ping and said, "Coach Taoka has your place in the current tactical arrangement, so be prepared, senior." ”

"Yes" If you can play, it must be a different feeling when the team wins

"Senior, you're now the No. 1 seed player in Kanagawa." Hikoichi saw the yearning in Guan Ping's eyes, as well as self-doubt, "There is no professional basketball in Japan, and of all these players who participate in national competitions, few of them will continue to engage in basketball-related industries in the future, including most of those so-called geniuses." So even if it's those geniuses, what's the difference between you and them? It's just that they have more equal scoring ability and more attention, at least you and they are competing on the same stage now, everyone has the same training, the same love for basketball, no different. Always put yourself in the position of the weak, and it's not okay to bow down before you compare, senior. ”

Guan Ping was a little stunned by Yanyi's words, and at the same time felt that something was about to break out of the ground.

yes, is there really that big a gap between me and them?
