In the evening, the players who had been assigned dormitories returned to their respective rooms, and after a simple wash, the players who had been tired all day went back to their rooms to rest.

The winning side was the color team led by Shinomiya Tianye, and according to Shinomiya Tianno's original meaning, he planned to divide the single room between Uozide Jun, Rukawa Kaede, and Sendo.

Because in terms of performance on the pitch, these three players are a little bit better.

However, Xiandao was a little embarrassed considering that they occupied two single rooms in Lingnan alone, and after a little thought, he gave up this place to Akagi Gangxian.

Of course, although he took the initiative to give up, in order to take care of Akagi Gangxian's face, Xiandao just said that Akagi Gangxian, who was guarding the inner line, needed to get a good rest even more.

Seeing that Xiandao gave up the single room, Akagi himself wanted to refuse, but Shinomiya Tianye didn't give him this opportunity and helped Akagi put his luggage into the single room.

At the same time, in order not to make Akagi think too much, Shinomiya Tianye also joked to Akagi: "You center forwards often snort very loudly, don't come to the collective dormitory to affect the rest of its players!" ”

Shinomiya Tanono had already said so, and Akagi Gangxian was too embarrassed to refuse anymore and moved into a single room.

After the three single dormitories were determined, the remaining dozen players were also divided into two dormitories.

The criteria for division are also very simple, one room for snoring and snoring, and one room for non-snoring and non-snoring.

However, the players thought very well when they were assigned dormitories, and Takemichi was also smiling and sharing a dormitory with Shinomiya Fieldo, Sendo, Fujima, Miyagi, and Hanagata, who thought they didn't snore.

Na Cheng thought that after the lights went out, these bastards except Fujima and Miyagi told the truth, and the other snoring sounds were louder and louder, and the martial arts who were noisy at all couldn't sleep.

The helpless martial arts had nothing to do with these guys, so he could only go to the living room and get some tissues to plug his ears, which made the surrounding snoring sound a little quieter and allowed him to sleep.

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, before dawn, the shallow sleep of Jinguji Martial Arts was the first to get up, tiptoed to the bathroom to wash, Martial Arts went to the living room, glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, and found that it was only four o'clock when he got up.

I was going to go back to my room to sleep, but as soon as I walked into the room, I heard the snoring of my roommates one after another, and I shook my head helplessly, and then put on a coat and walked out of the room.

Shonan coast at four o'clock in the morning.

There was silence.

Before dawn, the night sky was dotted with stars, and the sea breeze blew, making Martial Arts feel a burst of coolness.

Taking a deep breath, Jinguji Martial Arts suddenly sobered up a lot, returned to the equipment room and found a basketball, and Martial Arts planned to go to the court for a wave of morning exercises.

"Bell!!"

"Bell!!"

When Martial Arts approached the open-air stadium by the sea, a crisp sound of striking iron came to the ears of Martial Arts of Jinguji Temple.

"Huh?!"

"It's so early, it's still so dark, and there is someone who is even earlier than me?"

Hearing the voice, Jinguji Martial Arts was puzzled, and then quickened his pace and walked quickly towards the court. When he came to the edge of the court, Takedo saw that in the dark night, there was a figure practicing shooting.

It was a little dark, and the stadium lights weren't turned on.

Wu Dao stood outside the guardrail and looked into the middle of the field, staring intently for a long time before he recognized the person who was practicing.

"Rukawa Kaede?"

"You guys got up so early?"

Jinguji Martial Arts pushed open the door of the field and walked towards the field, greeting the people who were practicing in the field as he walked.

At this time, the player who was practicing shooting in the middle of the court was none other than Rukawa Kaede.

Rukawa Kaede in the field heard Martial Dao's shouting, stopped his movements, glanced at Martial Arts, nodded slightly, and then trotted to the basket, picked up the basketball and returned to the three-point line, shooting.

Maybe it's because it's dark, or maybe it's because Rukawa Kaede, who has also just gotten up, hasn't moved yet, and the basketball hits the edge of the basket and bounces out.

After falling to the ground, he rolled to the feet of Jinguji Martial Arts.

"It's really hardworking, Rukawa Kaede."

"What about three points?"

"Do you want to be together?"

Martial Arts threw the basketball in his hand to Rukawa Kaede, and as he spoke, he bent down, picked up the basketball, and then looked at Rukawa Kaede.

Rukawa Kaede, who got the basketball with both hands, dropped the ball quickly, moved two steps sideways, and then quickly closed the ball and jumped, and directly changed the direction to stop and shoot a three-point shot.

The shooting action is quite stretchy and standard.

However, the flying basketball smashed on the edge of the basket and popped out again.

"Tsk." Seeing that the shot didn't go in, Rukawa Kaede's face obviously showed a little impatience, and he ran to the basket quickly, picked up the basketball and quickly returned to the three-point line.

Wu Dao saw that Rukawa Kaede didn't pay attention to himself, but he didn't care, he had already been accustomed to Rukawa Kaede's cold character.

When playing or training, Rukawa Kaede has always been a person who doesn't talk much.

Wu Dao simply did not join Rukawa Kaede's training, walked to the bench on the sidelines, sat down, and watched Rukawa Kaede's training.

Rukawa Kaede practices three-point shooting in private, and unlike ordinary standing jump shot training, Rukawa Kaede often has a large range of breakthrough actions before shooting, and suddenly stops in a state of movement, and then closes the ball to shoot.

The purpose of training is not simply to practice the accuracy of three-point shots, but more to strengthen the ability to combine movement and static.

But

Rukawa Kaede's ability to combine movement and stillness is very powerful when shooting, but when shooting three-pointers, the shooting rate is quite poor, and Wu Dao sat on the side and watched Rukawa Kaede shoot more than a dozen, and only two or three goals were successfully scored.

The hit rate during training did not even exceed 30%.

However, Rukawa Kaede did not give up such training at all because he missed the shot, although Martial Arts could clearly feel that Rukawa Kaede became a little impatient with the increase in the number of shots, but Rukawa Kaede still had no idea of stopping.

After watching a few more balls, Wu Dao still didn't want Rukawa Kaede to do this kind of useless work after all, and couldn't help but shout to stop:

"Hey, Rukawa Kaede."

"Take a break, your training like this won't have any effect."

"At most, it's just to make your ball better, and it won't help your three-point shooting percentage!"

Rukawa Kaede, who had been silent and concentrating on training, finally stopped after hearing the words of Jinguji Martial Dao, ignored the basketball that rolled to the sidelines, and after smoothing out, he turned his head to look at Jinguji Martial Dao and asked:

"What do you mean?"

The reason why Rukawa Kaede practiced such an offensive method was also somewhat influenced by the martial arts of Jinguji Temple.

In the stadium, Rukawa Kaede has begun to gradually get used to the role of playing defender. Is it because he likes to play this position?

No, the main reason is actually in Xiangbei High School, only he Jinguji Martial Arts is still in the team, and this position of small forward is always Jinguji Martial Arts.

Rukawa Kaede will either take to the court as a defender or become a substitute for Jinguji Martial Arts.

But this is actually not what Rukawa Kaede wants, he doesn't care so much about what position he plays, what Rukawa Kaede cares about is that he is not as good as Jinguji martial arts.

As a teammate of Jinguji Martial Arts during his time at Takeshi Middle School, Rukawa Kaede knew very well what Jinguji Martial Arts' ability to survive on the court was.

It's not a strong breakthrough ability, nor is it a height condition that is higher than ordinary people.

The most powerful thing in martial arts is the terrifying projection ability that can shoot in any area of the opponent's half.

In terms of height, Rukawa Kaede thinks that he can't improve it through training, and with things like breakthrough techniques and footsteps, Rukawa Kaede doesn't think he will be much worse than Jinguji martial arts.

What he felt most lacking was the hit rate of the projection, as well as the range of the projection.

In order to make himself stronger, Rukawa Kaede also shifted the focus of training to this aspect. Rukawa Kaede is confident that as long as his ability in this area is strengthened, one day he will be able to no longer follow behind the Jinguji Martial Dao, but stand by the side of the Jinguji Martial Dao, and even walk in front of the Jinguji Martial Dao!

In order to be able to achieve this goal, Rukawa Kaede spent most of his time training in addition to eating and sleeping.

But now Jinguji Martial Arts is telling him that it's useless?

How can Rukawa Kaede accept this kind of thing?!

"It's not interesting, it means you're training the wrong way."

"No matter how hard you try on the wrong path, it's pointless, Rukawa Kaede."

Wu Dao propped up the bench with both hands, leaned slightly, and said with a smile.

When Rukawa Kaede heard this, his face changed slightly, he groaned a little, and asked towards Wu Dao, "What kind of training method is the correct training method?" ”

At this time, Rukawa Kaede finally had no way to maintain his "arrogant" personality, and took the initiative to ask.

In the face of Jinguji martial arts, Rukawa Kaede is still very convinced, Jinguji martial arts has been his Rukawa Kaede senior since Wushi Middle School, so many years, Rukawa Kaede has really not encountered any major setbacks on the court since he saw Jinguji martial arts grow up.

That is, there was a two-year ban in the middle of the country, but that kind of thing did not prevent Jinguji Takedo from being a strong player.

In today's high school arena, Jinguji martial arts can be said to be unstoppable. Even Rukawa Kaede heard that Jinguji Takemichi was playing abroad during the period when he also made a name for himself in high school.

This kind of thing, as far as Rukawa Kaede knows, has never been able to do it before the martial arts.

Jinguji Martial Arts' opinion, he attaches great importance to it.

"You kid, you really use people to face forward, not people to face backwards!"

"Hahaha!"

"Well, I don't care about you."

Wu Dao couldn't help but complain when he saw Rukawa Kaede looking like this now. But he didn't care, because Rukawa Kaede has always been such a person, a pure person.

"Shooting, it looks like a technical move."

"But in fact, the essence of shooting is the process of mobilizing the body to exert reasonable force."

"Do you know why you have good accuracy on your mid-range pullup jump shot, but not on the edge of the three-point line?"

"It's not because your shooting skills aren't good enough, it's not because your posture isn't up to par."

"It's simply because you don't have enough strength."

"The most important thing to train to expand the range is not posture and hand shape, but strength and rhythm."

"Rhythm can be found in non-stop training, but strength is not something you can develop with training like this."

Wu Dao said, stood up from the bench, picked up the basketball next to him, walked into the court, and after coming to the three-point line, he simply dribbled under his crotch, and then quickly moved a few steps to his left side, and then quickly closed the ball and jumped off the frame.

And at the moment when the martial arts body reached the highest point, the Jinguji Martial Arts who lifted the ball threw the ball directly, and at the moment of shooting, the Jinguji Martial Arts was still almost more than a meter away from the three-point line.

But the basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then smashed into the basket.

In this dimly lit environment, Jinguji Martial Arts still easily sent the ball into the basket. Seeing this scene, Rukawa Kaede even wondered if Martial Arts would be able to score this goal even if he closed his eyes.

"Rukawa Kaede, go pick up the ball."

After Takemichi scored a goal, he shouted at Rukawa Kaede.

Hearing this, Rukawa Kaede did not hesitate, went to the basket, quickly picked up the basketball, and threw the ball towards Jinguji Martial Arts.

After Takedo took the ball, he dropped the ball quickly, and after taking two quick steps in the right direction, he quickly closed the ball and jumped, the same rhythm, at the moment when Martial Arts' body reached its highest point and smoothly faced the frame, Jinguji Martial Arts shot again.

This time, the arc of the basketball was flatter than the ball just now, but there was still no accident, and the basketball fell directly into the basket. And this time, the shooting point of the martial arts, which is far from the three-point line, has reached almost two meters.

"Pass."

Martial Arts had no intention of stopping, and shouted at Rukawa Kaede.

Soon, Rukawa Kaede under the basket once again gave the ball to the hands of Jinguji Martial Arts.

Martial Arts held the ball, fell quickly, and then continued to move towards the top of the arc on the right, and at a position three meters from the three-point line, Jinguji Martial Arts jumped again with the ball.

However, this time, there was a noticeable change in the shooting rhythm of Jinguji Martial Arts.

The first two times, Jinguji Martial Arts held the ball and waited until he reached the highest point before shooting, using a standard two-stage style, giving people the feeling that Martial Arts had a momentary stagnation when shooting.

But this time, at the same time as Jinguji Martial Arts jumped, the basketball quickly moved from the waist and abdomen to the top of the head, and while the body reached the highest position, the arms were also straightened, and the basketball in his hand was also quickly thrown.

Under the gaze of Rukawa Kaede, the arc of the basketball was a little flatter than the two balls just now, and after crossing the half court, it fell steadily into the basket with a crisp sound.

"Rukawa Kaede, do you notice it?"

"The change in the pace of my shots."

"Think about it, why did my shooting rhythm change like this."

"Is it because I didn't control my posture?"

"It's because of the strength, every time I get a little closer to the three-point line, I need more power to shoot, and I have more core strength."

"And the change of rhythm is also to allow my strength to be fully exerted."

"Still. Rukawa Kaede, you and I are still different. ”

"You don't have enough strength, you can't control a three-point shot like a two-stage shot."

"Two ways to either change the posture and rhythm of the shot, or. Strengthen your core. ”

"Only then will you be able to make a difficult projection at a longer distance."
