After the two sides shook hands on the stage and thanked them, Xiangyang's people stayed at the scene to accept some interviews, and in the deserted player tunnel, there was only the lonely back of Sanwang Industry.

The noisy world outside the passage belonged to the Mountain King an hour ago, but now it is not.

The stage will only belong to the victors.

And as losers, the echo of the footsteps in the passage at this time is all they have left.

Goro Domoto actually wanted to say something to comfort everyone, such as taking responsibility on himself, but he swallowed back when the words came to his lips.

The main thing is not knowing what to say.

"Brother, are all the players you are going to in the United States like him?" Mikio Kawada's voice broke the silence in the passage, and there was a faint worry in his voice.

Masashi Kawada was slightly stunned, and then frowned, he didn't know how to answer his younger brother, after all, he had never been to the United States, but he heard that basketball in the United States was much more powerful than that of the Dragon Kingdom.

And if that's the case......

The gloom above his head seemed to have become more and more, and even Masashi Kawada, who had always been optimistic, couldn't help but fall silent.

Then everyone saw Goro Domoto, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped.

"Ahh Coach, I'm sorry......" Mikio Kawada thought he had said the wrong thing and quickly apologized.

Goro Domoto ignored him, but said slowly, "There is something...... Actually, I can tell you. ”

Everyone stopped at this point and looked at him suspiciously.

"As you all know, the Basketball Association has just signed a series of youth training cooperation programs with the NBA, but ...... Do you know why? ”

Why? Isn't it for the long-term development of Japanese basketball?

"Haha, who wouldn't want to go long-term? But that's not the main reason, otherwise there would have been a move a few years ago. Goro Domoto laughed and turned to face his teammates: "It's because of you, or rather, because of all the high school basketball players in Japan this year!" ”

"Yuta Tawo, who graduated from Sanno the year before last, is known as a rare genius in Japan in 50 years, and at the beginning of this year, he also became the first Japanese player to enter the NCAA...... Even, it's not this year's Hainan Mu Shenyi and Xiangyang's Fuji Zhen! ”

"There is a top-secret survey report on the high school basketball industry at the beginning of this year, and no matter what kind of data you look at, the Japanese high school basketball world has suddenly improved greatly in the past two years, and many talented players have emerged, and this change seems to have appeared and formed rapidly in half a year since last year...... Kawada, you also grew taller at that time, I remember you grew more than 20 centimeters in a year......"

"Yes." Masashi Kawada was surprised that his height was a bit of a genetic mutation, but does this have anything to do with what the coach said?

"Do you know what has been going on inside the basketball association during this time?"

Goro Domoto said with a smile, "They say that this is Amaterasu and wants to play basketball...... That's why we shine on Japan! Apart from this, no one can explain what is happening. ”

"Of course, this statement is just superstition, but there is another more objective comparison, the Basketball Association analysts believe that if Tian Wo Yuta is allowed to break into this year's high school league, then his personal ability may not be ranked in the top five!"

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Yuta Tawo, although only 175 cm tall, but in the Japanese high school basketball world is a god-like existence, three consecutive years in the winter selection of the BEST, the year before last in the summer national competition won an average of 50 points per game horror record, and at the beginning of this year, with its own strength, joined the NCAA Brigham Young University Hawaii, known as the future of the first person in Japanese basketball......

This is the predecessor of the Mountain King, and it is a legend in the hearts of each of them.

But...... In the mouth of Coach Coach Domoto of the Basketball Association, that's all?

"I've coached Yuta Tawo, I know his strength, and I know you, so I'm not just saying this just to comfort you."

Goro Domoto continued: "There is no need to question the authenticity of this matter, and it is precisely because the investigation report of the Basketball Association found such an amazing progress in domestic high school basketball that the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and the Basketball Association both saw the hope and future of Japanese basketball, so there was the policy tilt of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Culture, Sports ”

"All of this is not accidental!"

"So...... Don't underestimate yourselves, you are strong! Goro Domoto looked at them: "If even Yuta Tawo can survive in the NCAA, then Zebei, Kawada, what do you have to fear?" What is there to worry about? ”

The faces of the crowd became solemn.

"As for Lin Dong, don't care about him, he is an outlier himself, his strength is still unique even if he goes to an American high school or even the NCAA, losing to him will never prove that you can't play in the United States, on the contrary, after going to the United States, you will find that they are still so far behind Lin Dong, you have even experienced a stronger sense of oppression, and you won't care about them when the time comes...... This will be the most valuable experience you will have when you go to the United States! ”

Goro Domoto said slowly: "After going to the United States, I have a good experience, a higher level of league, more strong opponents, and more reasonable and professional training...... Then one day, in this sudden prosperity of Japanese basketball, you will also have the qualification to challenge Lin Dong again! ”

"Learn today's lesson, and when that time comes, don't lose again!"

………………

Under the vigorous publicity of NHK, the battle between Sanno and Shoyang has become the hottest topic in Japan today.

So much so that the finals of Xiangyang and Hainan University the next day were not enough.

When NHK broadcast the Sanno War, the highest rating was 26%, but the national rating at the finals was only 15%.

Of course, this is mainly due to the fact that August 7 is a Monday, and the game is in the morning, because most people have already started to work and can't stay in front of the TV, which has led to a huge drop in ratings.

If this factor is taken into account, the level of attention that this match has received in Japan is actually no less than that of the Sanno fight.

After all, this game is still a full publicity stunt for NHK or the tournament organizers.

Kanagawa Duo Finals!

What does this mean?

It means that Kanagawa's basketball is awesome and the atmosphere is good......

In the basketball weekly, not only was the previous interview with Lin Dong turned out and became popular again, but even the teams such as Lingnan and Xiangbei were also pulled out to hype up and get a wave of light while touting Xiangyang and Hainan.

All parties agreed that if it weren't for the fact that Kanagawa only has two places, then Xiangbei and Lingnan might also be able to achieve good results in the national competition.

Kanagawa's long face...... The local TV station received an order from Hiroshi Okazaki, the fourth governor of the prefectural cabinet, to go to NHK overnight to buy the broadcast rights, and then broadcast the whole broadcast the next day.

The whole of Kanagawa Prefecture is full of joy, and many companies even organize employees to watch it during working hours, because the boss also wants to watch it......

Who is the winner of this year's national competition?!

In fact, in addition to some suspense that NHK deliberately laid out during the promotion.

For Xiangyang and Hainan themselves, this is a game where the result is clear before the start of the game.

Lin Dong played the full 20 minutes of the first half, and he didn't exert much strength, and he didn't need to play Hainan anymore.

He has scored 32 points, 8 assists, 5 steals and 5 blocks, helping Xiangyang lock up the victory with a huge score difference of 66:38 in the first half early.

Regarding Lin Dong's performance, Hana Takeuchi, who was in charge of the commentary, said that he was very uncomfortable, because he was really boastful.

From the 'Hexagonal Warrior' and 'Imperial Destruction Dragon' who began to pick up people's teeth yesterday, to the 'Imperial Emperor' and '3.7 Billion Strongest Man' who began to innovate and invent themselves today.

Every time he used a nickname a few times, he couldn't help but want to give him another one, because he always felt that the previous one was not accurate enough and domineering enough, and it had reached the point where he was about to empty the vocabulary in his head.

Lucky!

Thankfully, the abrasive goblin finally went down in the second half...... Otherwise, Hanato Takeuchi is really a headache, and then you can think of a nickname for him how to be different.

So there was a slightly less brain-burning commentary at halftime.

Xiangyang and Hainan led by Fuji Zhen fell into a tug-of-war in which the scores alternately rose.

Mu Shenyi's growth is rapid in Lin Dong's eyes, compared with the county competition, in addition to the improvement of mood, there are more from the improvement of physical fitness and personal skills.

I don't know what kind of training he went through during the summer vacation, but he has a feeling that he has opened up the second pulse of Ren Du, and his style of play is becoming more and more mature.

But in the same way, Fuji Zhen also gave Lin Dong the same feeling, which should be due to the reconciliation with his mother yesterday, and the self-redeeming victory when facing Fukatsu Kazunari yesterday......

The Kanagawa Twins, who have improved their skills, put on a spectacular show for the whole of Japan in the second half.

Xiangyang's internal advantage is more obvious, but the outside line affiliated with Hainan University is even better.

Hanagata scored 21 points and 18 rebounds, while Hainan's Ichiro Shinsho scored 10 3-pointers and scored 37 points, becoming the highest scorer in the game except for Lin Dong.

And among them, 3 points and 15 shots were 10 hits, Hasegawa's marking of him did not play its due role at all, coupled with his delicate appearance, he really circled a wave of fans in front of the audience.

In the end, Xiangyang in the second half was only recovered by Hainan Zhan for two points, and ended the national competition with a score of 98:72.

The award ceremony after the game was inevitably lively.

All teams that made it to the quarterfinals were fully attended.

The first place is Xiangyang, the second place is Hainan, the third and fourth places are Sanno Industry and Mingpeng Industry, and the 5th to 8th places are respectively Hakata Business University Affiliated to Daei College, Luoan and Dongying Private High School that has been a dog shit luck for eight lifetimes.

In the grand venue, the organizing committee also announced several special resolutions in public.

First, Kanagawa Prefecture, as the strongest seeded area in this year's Summer League, will have two qualifying spots directly in this year's Winter Tryouts. They will also have three qualifying spots and two regional seeding spots for next year's Summer League.

Second, the winter auditions will be held at the Yokohama Gymnasium in Kanagawa at the end of December this year.

This decision was guessed in advance by all parties before today's final.

First, because Kanagawa Prefecture's performance in this summer league is too dazzling, and the double-seeded team, the attention of the winter trials in Kanagawa will definitely be unprecedentedly high, so the organizer's tickets will sell a little better, and the sponsorship can be a little more...... The second is because in November, Yokohama Stadium will usher in the overseas game of the NBA preseason, which is considered a basketball boom in Japan.

Third, the organizers of the Winter Trials Tournament, which is jointly organized by the Japan Basketball Association, the National High School Sports Federation, and the Asahi Shimbun, have negotiated a contract with next year's Nike Basketball Summit through Stern, when Japan will have two international team places, and the organizers will select the two best players in this year's Winter Trials through referendums and judges' scoring, and they will represent Japan at the Nike Basketball Summit in 2001 next year!

The Nike Basketball Summit, which began in 1995 and has been held for six times, is a team of American high school students who compete against the best high school players selected from all over the world.

In the previous six tournaments, the U.S. team won 3 and lost 3...... It was the strongest high school team selected from the United States, and it was still a mixed bag, which shows the fierceness and high level of this competition.

In previous years, no one in Japan had participated in the Nike Basketball Summit, including Yuta Tawo, who did not qualify, so that the popularity of this event in Japan was very low, but in fact it was the peak of the pyramid of high school basketball players around the world, with the highest gold content.

With Japan's previous high school basketball level, it is simply not enough to reach the edge of this event, and the reason why it can still get these two places is estimated that in addition to the shock that Lin Dong brought to the NBA two months ago, in addition to the overall substantial improvement of the overall level of high school basketball in Japan, there is also the role of money in the consortium behind it......

And when the organizing committee gave a special explanation of this event in the award speech, the hearts of all the high school students at the scene were undoubtedly stirred.

I heard from the organizing committee that most of the international high school students who defeated the U.S. team will be favored by the NCAA, not only have the opportunity to go directly to most of the NCAA to play the main team, but even have the possibility of directly stepping into the NBA, which obviously plays a pivotal role in both self-improvement and the development of personal basketball career.

Although the winter auditions have not yet started, these few news have undoubtedly captured the hearts of all high school basketball players in Japan!

…………

The best team in the national competition: Lin Dong, Makishiichi, Mori Shigekan, Masashi Kawada, Eiji Sawakita.

In fact, Eiji Zebei did not play the performance he should have in this year's competition, but out of his own fame and the fact that he is about to join the NSAA, he has to build momentum in advance, and the organizers still give him this honor without hesitation.

The best two teams in the national competition: Fujima, Jun Tsuchiya, Ichiro Shinso, Toru Hanagata, and Jiro Tanaka, a big forward affiliated with Hakata Shodai.

Finals MVP: The Undisputed Lin Dong!

In the end, 12 members of the Xiangyang team boarded the podium built in the center of the venue and received the medals and certificates from the organizers.

When Lin Dong lifted the glittering Summer League championship trophy on behalf of the whole team.

It doesn't matter if you're standing on the stage or standing off the stage.

There was laughter, and there was also sobbing.

Fujima's mother cried and laughed, Akino Amamiya was full of spring breeze, Coach Anzai hehehe, and Ozaki Masatoshi had a serious face.

Lao Lin and Sakuragi Hanamichi wore their plaid parent-child shirts, and the two of them jumped and jumped with excitement like children, as if the two of them were real father and son.

"Champion! Champion! Champion! ”

"We are champions!"

Today, let's make two shifts, sort out my thoughts, and two shifts in two or three days, about 7,000.

In fact, the general framework can be seen from this chapter.,Autumn Country Sports will not participate.,But-Winter Selection-Nike Basketball Summit,This order is probably the whole of the slam dunk chapter.,But this also has to write about the growth of the big boss of the slam dunk chapter.,As well as some things in China.,Several big ideas and development routes have been finalized.,There are also foreshadowings in front.,But you also have to think about the details of the structure.。

In addition, this chapter also gives an explanation of the current level of basketball in Japan.

Many people have said before that the king of the mountains should be how to fight, but in fact, part of it is because I didn't explain it clearly before.

The Japan in the book is the Japan after the slam dunk characters in the second dimension are messed into the real world, and the level of basketball is definitely different from the real Japan, as far as the pictures, skills, shots, etc. described in the hands of the slam dunk masters, American high school students dare not say, but there are really not many Chinese high school students who can do it, let alone in 2000, it can be said that the Japanese high school students in the book have no problem beating the Chinese high schools in 2000, after all, at that time, China's college basketball has not yet developed, and it is all youth training and semi-professional.

The two-dimensional chaos entered, this setting existed from the beginning, I thought everyone understood, and it was not explained separately, so that the performance of combat power in the battle of the mountain king made many people feel abrupt, so here I borrow the mouth of Goro Domoto to make a supplementary summary, and the real battle of the winter selection in the future will look much smoother.
