With the passage of time, the team practice match of Xiangbei High School has entered a white-hot stage.

There are outstanding players in both the red and yellow teams, and Kaede Rukawa's individual singles with the assistance of Koichiro Nango and others can be said to be invincible on the offensive end.

Kiyota Nobunaga had an advantage in the face of Yasuda Yasuharu's defense, and the red team led by Rukawa Kaede and Kiyota quickly established an advantage under the leadership of several of their first-year candidates.

Although the yellow team led by Sakuragi Hanamichi and Katsumi Ichiro fought back with all their might, their offensive efficiency was not as high as that of their opponents.

The height conditions of the two in the guard line, Sora Che Gu and Yasuda Yasuharu, are too poor, even if their team plays joint defense, they are still easily broken by the red team led by Rukawa Kaede.

Kaede Rukawa and Nobunaga Kiyota were able to score points from mid-range with ease, without worrying about the Yellow team's defense.

After all, the only outside player with a good height condition is Kami Ichiro, as long as Kami Ichiro passes, the yellow team's mid-distance and undefended are no different at all.

Although Sora Chetani wants to prove his worth on the defensive end, Tetsushi Shiozaki, who needs attention on his side, has not touched a basketball a few times after playing for more than ten minutes.

This half of the area he guards, no one attacks it at all!

There were a few times when Kiyota Nobunaga broke through and Sora Chetani tried to wrap it up, but Kiyota Nobunaga's field of vision was very wide, and such an opportunity would not be given to Sora Chetani at all.

This also led to the complete invisibility of Sora Che Gu on the defensive end, and his role was similar to that of Yasuda Yasuharu.

On the offensive end, Hanamichi Sakuragi, Kamiichiro and Ryumasa Oda almost captured the entire team's shots. Except for the first fast attack, he played for more than ten minutes, and no other teammates passed the ball to him.

The red team is playing a man-to-man defensive tactic, Shiozaki Tetsushi is a rigid guy, after Sora Che Gu enters the front court, Shiozaki directly targets Sora Che Tani, on the outside, if no one blocks and dismantles, Sora Che Gu can pull away with Shiozaki, but he can't run away at all.

And although Yasuda Yasuharu does not exclude passing to Che Tana, it is also limited to the situation of Che Tani empty space.

The little gap that ran out was simply not enough for Yasuda to risk passing.

Sora Che also tried to use air cuts to create offensive opportunities for himself, and he did run a few empty positions during the game, but Yasuda Yasuharu didn't think that Sora Che Tani's height could make any difference in places like the inside line and middle distance, so he didn't pass the ball.

Sora Che Gu played a little aggrieved in this practice match, he felt that he had a lot of opportunities, and he also thought that his ability to grasp that opportunity to score the ball, but Yasuda Yasuharu didn't trust him at all, and the targets of the ball were Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede.

This made Che Gu Kong annoyed and powerless.

No matter how good a player is, if his teammates don't pass the ball to him, his performance on the field is limited. Especially a player like Che Gukong, because he has no rebounding ability himself, and he wants to get basketball, and there are very few opportunities.

When the red and yellow teams were playing a practice match, Coach Anzay had already come to the stadium. Instead of disturbing the players, he made himself a cup of tea, sat down on a chair on the sidelines, and watched the game on the pitch.

Coach Anzai looked at it for a while, and his vision was also attracted by the figure of Che Gu Kong.

I saw the players who kept running back and forth with their teammates, trying to make up for the opponent's breakthrough on the defensive end.

Che Gukong's hard work made Coach Anzai suddenly think of his former self.

"Martial arts, come on."

Out of curiosity, Coach Anzai beckoned to Jinguji Martial Arts and asked about Sora Chetani after Martial Arts came to his side.

"Martial arts, that kid, who is it?"

Coach Anzai pointed to Sora Che Gu in the field and asked towards Jinguji Takemichi beside him.

"A transfer student in the first year of high school, and Sakuragi are in the same class, called Sora Chetani."

"I came to the stadium directly after class, and I want to join the basketball club of Xiangbei High School."

"On that note, I have agreed."

"But this kid has a very high spirit, and he keeps saying that he wants to fight the main force and become the right choice."

"I thought I was going to play a practice match anyway to test the ability of the players and come back from vacation, so I put him on and planned to see what he was capable of."

"Still. So far, no more value has been seen. ”

"My ability to hold the ball is very good, I think it should be the kind of player who has a strong ball, but the height condition is too poor, in my opinion, I can't play with the ball."

"And compared to his attacking power, it's too difficult to defend with such height conditions."

"For us in Xiangbei, there is no way to use such a player to become a regular selection, and the training value is too low."

Jinguji Martial Arts stood beside Coach Anzai and introduced this young man named Sora Che Gu, and at the same time, Martial Arts of Jinguji Temple also said his opinion on Sora Che Tani, Coach Anzai listened and nodded slightly, expressing his approval.

There are too many players that Jinguji Martial Arts has seen, and the height conditions are not strong, but the players who can play high-end games have also seen a lot of martial arts.

But there are too few such people.

Ryota Miyagi's height is already very difficult in high school basketball, and there are not many opportunities to play in this year's national competition.

The height condition is not as good as Miyagi Liangtian, and even the muscles on the body are far inferior to Miyagi's Che Gu Kong, and the martial arts are really not optimistic.

Although the opponent's crossover made the martial arts eyes shine before, the opponent's bounce is also strong and terrifying, and even after the game has been played so far, the opponent is still full of vitality, and obviously his physical fitness is very abundant.

But even so, Martial Arts still didn't think that there was any value in cultivating Sora Che Gu.

To put it cruelly, in the sport of basketball, height is the entry threshold!

Corresponding to Che Gukong, that is these talented players from Xiangbei High School.

Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede, who easily wreak havoc on the basket, must have athletic ability and height. Although Sakuragi has not mastered many offensive skills, in more than a year, he has mastered offensive skills that have become proficient in movement and full of threat on the offensive end.

With Sakuragi's terrifying brute force, in the high school arena, it is completely an inside killer.

Although Rukawa Kaede's body is not as strong as Sakuragi Hanamichi, his explosiveness is also quite strong, and the bounce is also very terrifying, and he also has good coordination, and has a wealth of offensive means, and is completely unstoppable when holding the ball, and the score of the red team basically depends on him.

In addition to the two of them, Nango Junichiro is tall and has a good sense of defense, and he is quite intimidating under the basket.

Although Ryumasa Oda is a little less physical, with a height of nearly 190cm, it is very easy to dunk.

Kami Ichiro has outstanding personal characteristics, skilled outside skills, accurate projection, and his height is also quite good.

As for Yasuharu Yasuda, Satoru Tsunoda and others, although they are a little mediocre, on the court, they can find their own position and support their teammates.

And Che Gukong can see that these players in Xiangbei are very physical, and unlike the Nine-Headed Dragon High School where he was originally located, these players are all people who have undergone rigorous training.

Satoru Tsunoda, who is in the second grade, has continuously experienced the era when Mitsui Shou and Martial Arts were in charge of Xiangbei, and his physical fitness has long been exercised.

Even those first-year guys who can support the basketball club of Xiangbei High School for a semester and stay until now have long been accustomed to the team's devil training.

Che Gukong was in Xiangbei, and he really saw what it means to be strong.

He is in Xiangbei, which is too inconspicuous.

The game in the stadium continued, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Rukawa Kaede and others were still active on the court, and Sora Che Tani tried to follow in the footsteps of his teammates, and in the back and forth roundabout running, he couldn't help but envy his teammates who could "fly" in the air.

The envy in his eyes lasted for a while, and then turned to firmness.

Coach Anzai saw everything in his eyes, and suddenly said to Jinguji Martial Arts beside him:

"Sora Chetani will be able to grow into an excellent player in the future."

"Wu Dao, try to let him play defender, hold the ball and see."

Hearing Coach Anzai's words, Jinguji Martial Arts was a little surprised, then nodded, walked to Miyagi Ryota's side, and whispered a few words in the other party's ear.

At this time, the yellow team in the middle of the court was attacking, Sakuragi Hanamichi quickly cut into the inside line from the bottom corner, Yasuda Yasuharu on the outside wanted to pass the ball to Sakuragi, who cut into the air, but his intention was too obvious, and he was directly interfered with by Kiyota Nobunaga's hand.

The basketball went straight out of the way and flew straight off the court.

When the ball was stopped, Miyagi Ryota also blew the whistle quickly.

The players in the field looked towards Miyagi one after another, and Takeshi also walked to the sidelines at this time, clapped his hands, and shouted to everyone, "Take a break." ”

"Adjust the lineup."

Under the instructions of Wu Dao, the players returned to the rest area one after another, and after playing for more than ten minutes, everyone was somewhat tired.

Hearing the pause of the game, Che Gukong reluctantly walked off the court, stood on the sidelines, clenched his fists, and looked at the field a little distracted.

No chance. Here he has no chance to show himself!

Just as Sora Che Gu was thinking about this in his mind, Martial Arts of Jinguji Temple suddenly came behind Sora Che Gu and patted the other party on the shoulder.

Turning his head, Che Gukong saw that it was the martial arts of Jingu Temple, and his expression immediately became solemn, his waist was straight, and he greeted the martial arts with honorifics: "Captain of Jingu Temple!" ”

"Relax."

"When the game resumes, you'll be in charge of the ball."

"Yasuda, Yasuda, you take a break, Shimamura, you replace Yasuda."

Jinguji Takemichi spoke, replaced Yasuda Yasuharu off the field, and at the same time replaced a second-year Xiangbei player, Yuhei Shimamura is about 180cm tall, is a player of the second team, and the position is a small forward.

After several people in the third grade retired from the department, this kid was the object of martial arts observation.

"Yes!" Yasuda and Shimamura responded in unison, and Shimamura also began to warm up on the sidelines.

When Sakuragi Hanamichi and the others saw such an arrangement, they all glanced at Sora Chetani strangely, and didn't say anything.

Even Sakuragi walked up to Sora Che Gu and patted Sora Che Gu on the shoulder and encouraged, "Don't be afraid! ”

"When you get on the field, you just have to find a way to pass the ball to this genius."

"I'll get the disadvantage back!"

After making arrangements, Wu Dao didn't pay too much attention to Che Gu Kong, so he went to Rukawa Kaede and their side to make some personnel adjustments.

Tetsushi Shiozaki was substituted for Ryota Miyagi as the referee, and at the same time, Takedo put Ryota Miyagi on the field.

Test the strength of the new player, and of course, match him with a strong enough opponent!

Although Kiyota can be Sora Chetani's opponent, Takedo feels that Kiyota Nobunaga's height advantage is too obvious. And Miyagi Ryota is just right for the opponent's same type of player, so let Miyagi try the other party's depth.

After a short break, the practice session continued.

The ball was still on Sakuragi's yellow team, and Yuhei Shimamura stood on the sideline and gave the ball to Sora Chetani.

When he started basketball, Che Gukong couldn't suppress his joy at all, with a smile on his face and a look full of energy.

When Miyagi Ryota saw the other party's expression, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and he smiled:

"Yo, new classmate, hello!"

"My name is Ryota Miyagi, the vice captain of the basketball club of Xiangbei High School, and too. Xiangbei's starting main point guard. ”

"You said you were going to be the right choice, right?"

"Win against me, and you can be the right choice!"

Today's Miyagi Ryota's height has grown to 170cm, although it is not tall, but in front of Sora Cheya, the advantage is fully displayed.

And the tendon meat of Miyagi Ryota's body, compared with him, Che Gu is very thin.

Hearing Miyagi Ryota's self-introduction, Sora Che Gu looked stunned, he didn't expect that the short player in Xiangbei in front of him was actually the vice captain?

"Distracted, boy!"

When Sora Che Gu was stunned, Miyagi Ryota sensed the opportunity to make a decisive move and slapped directly at the basketball in the opponent's hand.

However, Che Tani's reaction speed is also quite good, his body is close to Miyagi, he quickly turns and crosses, and then he starts directly, quickly crosses Miyagi Ryota, and kills towards the inside line.

The smooth passing movements are eye-catching.

"It worked!" Che Gukong, who successfully cut into the middle distance, did not dare to go deeper, muttered in his heart, made a quick stop and jumped, and the basketball was also raised above his head to be thrown.

However, at this moment, Miyagi Ryota, who was still thrown away by him a second ago, suddenly appeared on his side, jumped up directly and gave Deya Sora a cap.

Sora Chetani has excellent athletic ability, but Ryota Miyagi doesn't lose to him at all!

"Bang!!"

The basketball slammed to the floor and flew off the court.

Jinguji Martial Arts on the sidelines casually took the basketball in his hand, looked at Che Gukong, who was a little stunned at this time, and said with a smile:

"First grade, let's serve!"

"Basketball is a long road, and you must first recognize your own shortcomings before you can improve."

"Playing with the talents, you can progress faster, of course, first you have to be able to hold on!"

"Sa, let's serve!"

Jinguji Martial Arts' words pulled Che Gu Kong back to reality, and looking at the Jingu Temple Martial Arts who was holding the ball on the sidelines, Che Gu Kong nodded heavily.

"Xiangbei High School."

"Captain Jinguji is right!"

"Playing with these amazing talents, I will definitely be able to get stronger!"
