Chapter 17 Is that pot cover an immortal way?!

Just as the players from Qiuyue High School walked into the gymnasium, the basketball players from Takeshi Middle School were observing their opponents in this practice match in their rest area.

"The people at Qiuyue High School are all very tall. There are three or four people above 180cm."

Mitsui Hisashi sat on the bench, arranging the laces of his sneakers, and usually raised his head to observe the players of Qiuyue High School. Without a formal match with the opponent, the easiest way to judge the opponent's strength is to look at the average of the opponent's players.

height.

At this stage of junior high school, this method is tried and true. Generally speaking, a team with a tall average height will have a higher winning rate than a team with a short average height.

Seeing three or four elders in Qiuyue High School, Mitsui Shouya couldn't help but become interested.

"So what if you're tall? You shouldn't be able to play, but you still can't!" Beside Mitsui Hisagi, Jinguji Budo raised his head and looked at the ceiling, his eyes dull as he said.

At this time, Budo was wearing a white sports T-shirt, which was the uniform uniform of Takeishi Middle School bench players. Although Jinguji Budo thought he had improved a lot in the past few days, in this game, coach Masayoshi Anzai did not arrange for him to play at all.

He didn't even have a jersey.

"Don't say that. I used to be a substitute. Train hard and one day you will be able to play."

Mitsui Hisashi tidied his shoelaces and said with relief. After a few days of getting along, he and martial arts have become friends. Mitsui Hisashi was surprised by the progress of martial arts during this period. However, as a defender, Mitsui Hisashi also felt that martial arts was not good enough.

mean.

"I don't want to wait for a few more months. If I don't play games, there will be no fun in playing basketball!"

Wu Dao looked up at the ceiling and sighed. From the beginning to the end, he never glanced at the players of Qiuyue High School. For those who can't play, it doesn't matter what their opponents are.

After finishing speaking, Budo glanced at Mitsui Hisashi next to him. At this time, Mitsui Hisashi had already changed into the jersey of Takeishi Middle School. The number "5" on his chest made Budo a little envious. He also wanted to play in the game!

"Hey, cheer me on off the court, and then we can share the joy of victory together."

Mitsui Shou patted Budo's shoulder and said confidently.

At this time, Masayoshi Anzai and captain Masao Fujii returned to the team. Masayoshi Anzai clapped his hands and motioned for the team members to assemble.

"The game starts in twenty minutes."

"Before that, let me say a few words."

While Anzai Masayoshi was speaking, his eyes inadvertently glanced at Budō sitting next to Mitsui Hisashi. At this time, Budō was looking at him with a burning gaze. Anzai Masayoshi saw desire and enthusiasm for the game in Budō's eyes.

eager.

Anxi Zhengyi noticed this, and a smile appeared on his lips, but he did not respond to Wu Dao's eager gaze, and said to himself:

"You have all seen the opponents in this competition. The players from Qiuyue High School are all very tall, and they are generally over 170cm."

"The heights of several strikers are above 180cm."

"Therefore, when playing against them, the rhythm of the offense must be accelerated, and the inside players must reduce the time they hold the ball."

"Mitsui, our team's rebounding pressure will be quite high in this game. Reduce our shots from outside the three-point line and use stable mid-range shots and timely layups to score points."

At the end of his speech, Masayoshi Anzai highlighted Mitsui Hisashi's name and asked Mitsui Hisashi to reduce his scoring from outside the three-point line.

Nowadays, Mitsui Hisaka has just entered the second grade of junior high school. Although he has excellent three-point shooting skills, compared with the mid-range shooting, the shooting rate of three-pointers is still lower. Without the guarantee of rebounds,

Under such circumstances, Masayoshi Anzai does not want Hisashi Mitsui to rely too much on three-pointers.

In basketball of this era, everyone has a consensus, that is, the closer you are to the basket, the easier it is to score. Even former national player Masayoshi Anzai firmly believes in this view.

"Defensively, use zone defense to consolidate the defensive strength inside."

"If the opponent wants to shoot a three-pointer, there is no need to forcefully defend, just provide enough interference."

"Next, I announce the starting lineup, Fujii Masao (C, No. 4), Mitsui Hisashi (SG, No. 5), Chiba Oishi (PF, No. 11), Toyokawa Taro (SF, No. 7), Maeda

Sichuan (pg, No. 6)."

"You five are the starters. Okay, now, everyone, warm up."

Although there were only five players in the starting lineup, all basketball players had to do warm-up exercises. Jinguji Budo looked at the five players whose names were called, sighed silently, then stood up from the bench and joined

Arrived in the warm-up queue.

The players on Takeishi Middle School's side are a bit shorter compared to Akizuki High School.

The third-year captain Fujii Masao plays center and is 187cm tall in shoes, which is pretty good.

Second-year Hisashi Mitsui is 171cm tall in shoes, which is enough for him as a defender among junior high school students. Second-year Chiba Oishi is 182cm tall in shoes and is qualified as a power forward. And third-year Taro Toyokawa is a junior high school student.

The forward is 174cm, and as for the point guard, third-year Maeda Iegawa is only 165cm.

Among all the starting players, there are three third-year players, two second-year players, and none of the first-year players.

Budo looked at Taro Toyokawa and Iekawa Maeda for a long time during the warm-up, and then sighed. In his opinion, he was enough to replace these two players in the game. It was a pity that the coach did not give them a chance.

He won't be able to qualify for the starting lineup.

The twenty-minute warm-up was a bit difficult for martial arts practitioners, so he could only devote his full enthusiasm to the warm-up.

Therefore, we can see that during the warm-up half of Fifty Middle School, there was a tall young man in white, who spared no effort to vent his energy. His behavior was a bit conspicuous among the team members.

"This kid! I can't bear my temper." Anxi Zhengyi saw this scene in his eyes, sighed and shook his head.

On the Qiuyue High School side, there are several team members who are interested in martial arts.

"That player has great height and jumping!" During the half of the warm-up at Qiuyue Affiliated High School, Xiandao noticed Budao who was doing a layup. When he saw that Budao's hand was almost flat with the basket when he was doing the layup,

He sighed secretly, then noticed the training uniform on Wu Dao, and didn't care, and threw himself into the warm-up.

The twenty-minute warm-up was very fast. The players from the two teams who had warmed up finally walked onto the court after listening to their coaches' instructions. As the players from both teams came on the stage, the spectators watching the game on the sidelines burst into cheers.

Voice.

"Happiness belongs to others"

"Why!"

After the warm-up, Wu Dao sat on the bench with his legs crossed and looked at the ceiling. He was also a first-year student and a substitute. The other first-year students were all standing. Only the second-year and third-year substitutes sat in seats.

superior.

However, no one said anything about Wu Dao's obviously over-the-top behavior. All the team members knew that Wu Dao, who was 187cm tall in shoes, was different from them.

"Boy, don't sigh. I'll wait until you have the chance to appear."

"Here, here's the jersey, put it on."

At this moment, Masayoshi Anzai sat down next to Budo and threw a set of jerseys on Budo.

"Huh?" Wu Dao immediately became energetic after hearing this, grabbed the jersey and looked at it carefully.

It’s really the uniform of Takeshi Middle School! Although it is number 15, it also means that Budo has officially entered the rotation of Takeshi Middle School. There is a faint plastic smell on the uniform, which is the new uniform.

"Coach, can I play?!"

Wu Dao asked in surprise, he wanted to confirm what he heard.

"Yeah, but not as a defender."

"Have you seen that pink team number 13?" Masayoshi Anzai pointed at Sendō who was on the court preparing to jump the ball and said.

"See, is that Jarhead?" Budo looked in the direction that Anzai Masayoshi pointed, and saw Akira Sendō standing in front of Toyokawa Taro.

"Yes, that's him. That kid's name is Akira Sendō, and he's Qiuyue's ace. He scored more than 30 points in several previous games in Kanagawa."

"If I replace you later, I'll just keep an eye on that kid."

"The opponent is someone who can average more than 30 points per game. Taro Toyokawa can't stop him."

"Toyokawa is a top soldier, here to explore the way for you. Your defense is very good. I noticed it during the practice match before. Being able to completely suppress Chiba Oishi also shows your defensive strength."

"Off the court, you have to carefully observe the movements of No. 13 and think about how to defend yourself when it is your turn to play!"

"Huh? Martial arts, are you listening?"

Anxi Zhengyi put his arm around Budao's shoulders and spoke in Budao's ear, but he suddenly found that Budao looked dull, as if he was not listening to him at all.

"ah?!"

"Oh, I'm listening."

"Coach, you just said, what is the name of the number 13 on the pink team?"

Wu Dao was shocked and asked after hesitating for a while.

"Sendou Akira." Anxi Zhengyi felt strange when he saw Wu Dao's appearance. He didn't know what happened to Wu Dao.

"Xian Dao Akira Sen Dao Akira!"

“That Jarhead coward’s name is Sendō Akira?!”
