Chapter 35 Decide on the list of candidates

After playing five warm-up games in a row, Suzuki was still not satisfied and was still actively contacting.

This year's prefectural tournament started a little later, and with two more weekends to spare, Suzuki didn't want to waste that precious time.

This year's freshmen in Xiangbei are not only large in number, but also high in quality, give them a few more high-level competitions to exercise, and after adapting to the intensity, they can become a ready-to-use combat force, which will be of considerable help to the subsequent competitions.

However, after some contact, the opponent for the next week was contacted by two more, but the opponent of the game before the game was nowhere to be found. As a top eight team, Xiangbei has a bye, but most teams have to honestly start from the first round, and some teams even have to start playing one or two qualifying matches the week before.

You must know that Kanagawa has more than 300 colleges and universities, and even if some schools do not have basketball clubs or basketball teams, it is only a fraction of them, and the official knockout stage of the prefectural tournament is only 64 places. Most of the teams don't even get into the schedule.

In desperation, Suzuki thought of Lihai Dai, who was also going to participate in the prefectural competition, but it was a junior high school competition, and called Yukimura to try to have a game in the last week before the competition.

Yukimura hit it off with this invitation, and quickly set the time, to be honest, he also wanted to see the current level of Xiangbei, although the current Xiangbei team, there is only the last trace of his tenure - if you include the manager Momoi, who left the first level, - now when the third-year Maki, Yanagisawa and Kuroda entered the department, Yukimura had already left Xiangbei.

Thinking of the official competition of the county competition, Suzuki remembered that it was time to submit the registration form for Xiangbei this year, and the grouping of each team would also be officially released a week before the game.

Although in the previous contact, Minami Tara did not swear to Suzuki and made a promise, but the tone has been revealed a little, and he promised to help a little. In this way, Xiangyang and Hainan should be avoided, and what Xiangbei encountered in the regional knockout round was either Lingnan or Wuyuan.

Between these two teams, Suzuki is more inclined to face Takeshino.

There is no other reason, although Wuyuan has Hayama Kotaro, one of the top five players in the county, but the strength of the rest of the players is just average, even if it can't completely lock Hayama, the current Xiangbei team also has a considerable winning rate, Suzuki is very confident in the advantages of Maki and Akagi on the inside.

If it was Lingnan, Suzuki's confidence would not be so sufficient.

Lingnan's strongest point is also their small forward, who is currently in the third grade. Although Baoke is still inferior to Hayama in terms of strength, Lingnan's role players are not comparable to Wuyuan.

Perhaps because the burden on his shoulders is far lighter than that of Maki, and the motivation to move forward is insufficient, Wakamatsu Kosuke's progress in the past three years is far inferior to that of Captain Xiangbei. But the experience of entering the national tournament on and off, even if it was only a continuous round, has given him a wealth of experience, and at least in Kanagawa Prefecture, he is still a reliable center at the top of the rankings. This point is not something that the fledgling Akagi can deal with, only Maki himself can suppress it, and no one else can do it.

A team that can stabilize its results must have at least three strong points, and Lingnan happens to have one from the inside to the outside. Their sophomore at shooting guard, Satoshi Kakumatsu, is a rare three-point shooter in the prefecture. Kadomatsu has a wide range and a consistent shooting percentage from beyond the three-point line, making him a dangerous man who needs to be closely guarded at all times.

Just having these three people in place is enough for Suzuki to have a headache, not to mention that in Suzuki's cognition, Coach Taoka of Lingnan is a sinister guy who is very good at hiding his back, and he will never expose all the strength of his side until the real decisive battle!

In the original world line, the return of Fukuda Jizhao may be an accident, but the rear of Xian Daozhang, playing point guard, is not trained in a short period of time.

In Taoka's original backhand, there must be a way of playing for Sugatai or someone else to partner with Yuzumi, otherwise with Ikegami's height and technique, as well as the identity of the team vice-president, he will not behave like two people in the warm-up match with Xiangbei and the county competition.

And just like the giant newborn fish Sumi, he was willing to let the fish live in the game with Chengrin without even showing faces. If it's Suzuki, you can't do this kind of thing, and a rare experience gift package like Seirin's must be eaten by the most worthy person in the team, so it's a shame to waste it.

Based on these reasons, in Suzuki's opinion, if you want to face Lingnan, it is better to delay it later, let Akagi, Mizuno, and Wudai grow higher, and then face it.

However, Suzuki still does not know how the grouping will be arranged, after all, even Minami Taliang will not blatantly designate the grouping for Xiangbei, and then send it all the way to the guarding team. First, the friendship between Suzuki and Minami Tara can't do it to this extent. Moreover, Nan Dora is a scheming politician who will not be easily leveraged.

After thinking about it for a while, Suzuki still returned to reality and tangled up the team's list.

The registration of the official players is to be decided here, even if someone is injured or cannot participate for any other reason, it cannot be changed.

If you want to change the list again, you will only have a chance to enter the national competition, but after the county competition, this list will generally not be changed again. And, thinking about this now, it's a little far away.

Writing the surnames of all the basketball players on a blank piece of paper, Suzuki began to pick them one by one.

Drawing a circle on each of Maki and Yanagisawa names, the two captains are impeccable in their strength and attitude, and are an integral part of the team.

Then there are Endo and Mizuno. These two are the only point guards on the team, and naturally they are all selected.

Because Sakuragi's addition is basically no other, Suzuki has no idea of developing redundant point guards among the freshmen, otherwise, Mu Twilight and Shakura are also good choices, and they don't have to go to the same position with Kuroda and Takeyo now.

In the inner line, Akagi, Ishii and Hotta, Suzuki all circled one by one, this is the most physically demanding position, and the two main forces with two substitutes must be determined first.

Next, let's look at the defenders.

Given Kuroda's recent performances, Suzuki thought about it and put him on the list anyway. Wu Dai may be close to him in terms of strength, and his potential is higher than him, but Kuroda's experience is still a bit of a plus, and depending on the performance in the next period of time, it is decided whether to start or substitute.

Immediately afterwards, Suzuki circled Wu Dai, Shakura and Mu Dusk. The presence of the latter two is effective in enriching tactical variations, and Suzuki will bring them with him, if not for the purpose of developing new players.

A rough calculation, Suzuki has circled 11 people, and there are only 12 places for the main selection, that is, there is only 1 place for the remaining people.

First crossed out the two names in the first grade that were not impressive, and then crossed out Ino and Sakai in the second grade, Suzuki made a mistake between Kawabe and Takash.

The two men were at a similar level, and the positions were both power forwards, but in the end, Suzuki chose Kawabe.

On the one hand, Kawabe is taller and has an advantage in playing power forward than Takash, and on the other hand, Suzuki is also trying to balance the number of people between the first and second grades.

There are four students in the second grade, and Sakai has been removed, and if Kawabe is excluded, the number will be far less than the first grade, which is also a disservice to the internal stability of the team.

Finally, Suzuki confirmed the registration list for this year's Xiangbei.
