On August 15, Xiangyang University Basketball Hall.

Coach Anthy and an old man in a hat sat and chatted next to the scoreboard, which showed the scores of the two teams.

Xiangyang 65: Xiangbei 87!

"Defend! Defend! Defend! ”

Several of Xiangyang's substitutes shouted hard.

In the field, Fujima holds the ball, and the opposite one is Sakuragi Hanamichi.

At this time, Sakuragi's outstretched arms were blocked in front of Fuji Zhen like a wall, and the movement speed under his feet was extremely fast, no matter how Fuji Zhen rushed left and right, but he couldn't get rid of it, but he was tired and panting first.

Fujima's face was full of disbelief.

As early as the summer vacation, he already knew that Sakuragi's level of Hanamichi had improved a lot, but he still suffered from Sakuragi alone, and it was easy to pinch him, after all, he was inexperienced.

Later, Sakuragi pestered Lin Dong every day, and I heard that it was still 10 to 0 every day, and Fuji Zhen didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that even if there was progress, how could he improve in a month?

But at this time, I felt like this kid was a different person.

Although there is still no progress in offense, it can be described as terrifying on the defensive end!

In this whole game, Sakuragi Hanamichi actually completely blocked himself by himself, and did not allow himself to complete a breakthrough, only allowing himself to score 4 points at the beginning of the first half, and then he was sealed to the present!

I can only rely on my teammates.

Fuji Zhen is false and fake, and he can't beat Sakuragi Hanamichi alone, but if he wants to pass the ball, Sakuragi is still a little tender and can't block him.

A ground-hitting pass went straight to the inside of the flower shape to, the flower shape pulled up, tired back failed to raise the range it should have, and in front of him, Akagi Tsuyoken's tall figure had already risen.

"Roar!"

Akagi roared angrily, and the oversized hot pot was served.

The basketball was snatched by Sakuragi, and Fuji really wanted to steal the ball, but saw that Sakuragi had already divided the ball quite quickly: "Liangliang!" ”

Miyagi Ryota received the ball, the speed was as fast as lightning, and a back directly passed Shoichi Takano who was hastily blocked, and then attracted the back defense of Hasegawa, and when he attracted the ball to the top of the arc of the three-point line on the right.

Mitsui Shou was already in place at this time, and the three points of the vacant position were completely for nothing for this guy who felt full of hands today, and he had no idea of cutting in the face of the empty blue, and he pulled out his hand in three points.

Swish!

65:90……

There was just over a minute left before the end of the game, but the score was lost by 25 points.

Both Fujima and Hanagata Toru felt a deep sense of frustration at this time.

This Xiangbei ...... It's so perverted!

After Xiangyang experienced this national competition, it has actually improved greatly.

The flower shape is more confident under the basket, and the style of the ball is much tougher than before.

Shoichi Takano, Hasegawa, and Mitsuru Nagano have also improved their confidence and experience, after all, they are the champion team of the national competition, and this honor bonus alone makes them feel that their strength has improved by at least half a notch.

Not to mention Fuji Zhen, after the Mountain King Zhan opened up the second vein of Ren Du, the breakthrough became sharp, and the lethality was more than one grade stronger than the previous Fuji Zhen.

But just like this, when the aces of both sides were not on the court, they even lost by 25 points?!

It's just because Xiangbei has made greater progress......

Tsuyoken Akagi, who returned to the team, is more domineering than his performance in the prefectural competition, and it seems that the battle on the streets of Yokohama completely inspired his confidence and made him fully aware of himself.

There are no bells and whistles under the basket skills, just constant back hits, rebounds, and eating cakes, just these three moves, have already suppressed the flower shape under the basket without temper.

Mitsui Shou's physical strength problem seems to have improved a lot, and once his physical strength catches up, the demeanor of the MVP of Takeshi Kunishi National High School will be restored.

Hasegawa can't defend him now, he was shot three points when he defended him, and he was shot three points after defending him, which is the most played point on the offensive end of Xiangbei today, and Shengsheng was cut down by Mitsui Shou alone 39 points! That included seven 3-pointers and eight free throws, an absolute MVP-caliber performance.

Ryota Miyagi's improvement may not seem obvious, but as the team's playmaker point guard, connecting this team is what he is good at, and today with the courageous play of his teammates, he clearly did even better.

And if these three points just caused trouble for Xiangyang, then the real decision of the game was Sakuragi Hanamichi.

Although he didn't score a single point on the offensive end, he grabbed a full 7 offensive rebounds and gave Mitsui Shou 5 assists, while the defensive end was stunned to lock up Xiangyang's biggest ace Fujima by himself, making it difficult for Xiangyang to play on the offensive end.

And when Hanagata and Fujima are suppressed, the outcome can be imagined.

Then two waves of powerless counterattacks, with Fuji Zhen's last throw slapped by Sakuragi Hanamichi, Xiangbei ended the game 94:69.

"Such a team didn't make it to this year's summer national competition...... the old man with a hat smiled and said to Coach Anzai, "How did you lose in the county competition in the first place?" ”

But Coach Anzai didn't answer his question, but instead said: "Although Xiangyang has just won the national championship, it mostly depends on Lin Dong's personal ability. ”

Saying that, Coach Anzai laughed: "Kitano, this is a problem you have to solve, otherwise, even if Lin Dong returns to the team during the winter competition, our Xiangbei may not necessarily lose to you." ”

"Hahaha!" Kitano Shoichi said with a smile: "That's all I can do now, to be honest, if I had seen Lin Dong's performance in the national competition, I probably wouldn't have agreed to the Xiangyang School Board to come." ”

"Feeling like there's nothing left to teach?"

"Almost, can you teach?"

"Hehehehehe!"

Frankly speaking, the strength of the Xiangbei generals has improved so much, which even Coach Anzai himself did not expect, and he has already felt it after returning to Kanagawa to gather everyone for training twice.

And today's friendly match with Xiangyang completely affirmed his idea.

Sakuragi-san's progress is really too great.

It seems that Sakuragi did not lie when he said that he 'blocked Lin Dong with a ball', he studied with Lin Dong in Xiangyang this summer and devoted all his energy to defense, and it has reached such a point.

Previously, his plan for Sakuragi Hanamichi was to lay the foundation within half a year, but now it seems that ...... Maybe it's a good idea to specialize in one first.

Thinking of this, Coach Anzai stood up and beckoned to Sakuragi Hanamichi: "Sakuragi-san." ”

Sakuragi Hanamichi laughed and ran over: "Daddy! We won! Won 25 points, no Rukawa Fox, hahaha! ”

"Hehehehe, Sakuragi-san, do you want to get stronger?"

"Of course!"

"Then go and say hello to home, I'll take you somewhere, it may take about two months to come back."

"Huh?" Sakuragi Hanamichi was stunned, and then his face was full of joy, he heard Mitsui Shou talk about his father taking Rukawa Kaede to special training, is this finally his turn?

"However, the special training will be very hard, you have to be mentally prepared." Coach Anthy said with a smile: "As for the school, I will help you ask for leave after the school starts, don't worry." ”

"Rest assured! Hahaha, Dad, do I look like someone who is afraid of hardship? ”

"Hehehehehe!" Coach Anzai smiled, but said something unrelated: "Lin Dong may leave Japan next year." ”

He had previously asked Lin Dong if he wanted to go to the Nike Basketball Summit, and when he got a negative answer, Coach Anzai actually understood in his heart.

"So this winter tryout...... It is probably the last chance for the Xiangbei basketball team to challenge Lin Dong. Coach Anzai stood on tiptoe and patted Sakuragi Hanamichi on the shoulder, this kid seems to have grown a lot taller, about 190 cm: "Come on." ”

Sakuragi Hanamichi's eyes gradually became firm, and he swept the hippie smile just now: "Okay! ”

………………

Although Earl had already felt the extraordinary talent of Lin Dong as early as the first meeting, and the data should be very strong, when the specific value was measured, Stephen almost dropped his jaw.

At 195.4 cm tall, he has an arm span of 216 cm, and his finger length is an astonishing 9.1 inches, a full 23.11 cm! With this big palm, catching a basketball is like playing, holding mineral water and oral liquid is almost the same...... Such a palm is born to control the ball.

The Achilles tendon is 25 cm, the bounce is 95 cm on the spot, the run-up bounce is 107 cm, and the air time is 0.91 seconds!

The 100-meter sprint of 10.7 is close to the level of first-class athletes in the Dragon Country, and for a high school student who has not yet reached the age of 17, both explosiveness and endurance are already considered full.

On the whole, such a talent is already top-notch even in the NBA, not to mention in Asia.

Of course, there are relatively poor aspects.

One is the bone age test, probably because the original body has endured a lot of heavy blows in boxing, the bone age of the test has reached 18 years old, and he can probably grow taller for a year or two, and this year's 17 years old, it should also be the last time he has rapidly increased his height, even if it is longer at this time next year, the amplitude will be much smaller, and it is estimated that the final height will not exceed 202 cm, which has become a big regret after Lin Dong's test, his original ideal height is best between 207 and 210, but now it seems impossible.

However, in the No. 3 position, this height is actually enough, a little better than in the previous life, and with the top static and dynamic talent, it will not suffer a loss in the NBA.

Second, the difference is strength.

Bench press 80 kg can only do 10 times, the limit bench press is about 96 kg, squat 145, deadlift can reach 180, generally speaking, the normal ratio of squat pull is 1.5 to 2 to 2.5 to be considered a balanced ratio, Lin Dong This is a typical core strength stronger than upper limb strength, but he was obviously practicing boxing before...... Obviously, my physical training has gone a little off in the past few months.

Not only is it uneven, but at the level of Asian players, the level of power at the age of 17 is certainly top-notch, but if you compare it side-by-side with the NBA or 17-year-old black players, the strength data is indeed worse in every way.

Considering the physique and growth cycle of Asians, as well as the height changes of Lin Dong in the last four months.

Stephen's advice is still based on an energy training system that enhances endurance and core strength, and the diet is based on a diet based on a lot of vitamins A and D, supplemented by height-increasing training and supporting massage, so that Lin Dong can grow another 3 to 5 cm taller within the year, and then seek muscle building and strength training......

In terms of technology, in addition to the confrontational sparring service in singles, it is mainly to correct some technical details, after all, Lin Dong's style of play has actually been formed.

The only thing that is lacking is that the small details are not in place when doing some movements, such as the amplitude of twisting the hips, such as the contact surface of the inner foot kicking the ground when breaking through is too large, etc.

Constant fine-tuning, to find a balance between the most scientific and your most comfortable rhythm, these may be so few tenths of a centimeter detail, but after forming a habit, it will affect your speed limit, and it will increase the wear and tear of the body, will consume excess energy, increase the risk of injury, etc.

These are small details that you can't notice when you're playing on your own, and even if you do, it's hard to adjust, and that's where the value of personal trainers comes in......

I have to say that Stephen's talent as a trainer is really the best Lin Dong has ever seen, it's just off the charts.

Speaking of which, before coming to Lloyd's training base, Stephen didn't know anything about the business of personal trainers, and when he first took over Rukawa Kaede, he had made several oolongs, but fortunately, Rukawa Kaede didn't understand, and Coach Anzai was not there, so he was quietly corrected by Earl who guided him in time, which is why Earl didn't dare to teach Lin Dong to train him.

But just after experiencing Rukawa Kaede, from data analysis to what targeted training should be done, he has actually figured out the door.

Playing around, not joking about work, Stephen's training plan has done a great job that Lin Dong and Earl are very satisfied with.

Shan was finally successfully taken over by him, and Lin Dong's two-month private training officially began......
