Chapter 80 The end of the practice match
Sakuragi Hanamichi scored four points with a slam dunk within a few minutes. This is a very good result for a novice. And you should know that the opponent is not a miscellaneous fish, but the main players of the top four teams of the high school prefecture competition.
Although Hanao's goal relies on his teammates' excellent pass, it was shocking that Hanao's performance after learning the ball for a month and a half.
"Not bad, flower path!"
After the slam dunk scored, Hanada and Sendo began to defend. When they arrived at their own half, Tano encouraged Hanada. Even Tianye did not expect Hanada to complete an aerial contact with Sendo. Generally speaking, Hanada's ball was either a head-dunk or a rebound or a ball landing~
It seems that Huadao's practice for the past one and a half months has indeed made him different. Although his personality is still like this, his football skills have indeed improved greatly.
"Senior Yuzhu, the flower dou is shitting on your head. Don't you do anything?"
In the offensive rounds of the second and third grades, Yuzhuo was blocked by Tian Ye when he received the pass and was about to come up to attack. The first grade team had a very big advantage, and Tian Ye began to mock and sarcastically and hatred.
"This guy has such a bad personality!"
Yu Zhu, who was catching the ball, was very calm. Yu Zhu had long been accustomed to Tian Ye's bad character, and Tian Ye's words could not affect Yu Zhu's competitive state.
Yuzhu knows that his skills are not as good as Tianno's, and although he does not have an advantage in strength, Yuzhu can still create a certain amount of space for himself by relying on strength. Even if he can't pitch, it is a good thing for the team to have a little defensive pressure!
Yu Zhun's plan to fall the ball, and his shoulders pushed his head towards the field.
Feeling the power coming from the opponent's shoulders, Tian Ye did not choose to fight head-on at the first time. Instead, he sideways and avoids Yuzhu's front thrust, and goes around to Yuzhu's side and pokes at the basketball.
"I've suffered!"
Yu Zhuo, who had a head of his shoulder, immediately realized that it was not good, but his weight and active front thrust made him unable to adjust his posture.
The basketball was shot to the ground by Tianye from Yuzhu's hand, but fortunately, it was not the first-year player who received the floor, but Shuichi took it first.
"Tsk!"
"Shit luck."
Just as Tanye was about to run forward and get the ball, he saw Xiuichi catch the floor ball. Tianye, who was unhappy, hurried back to Yuzhu's side to defend. Although Hanada reacted slowly but failed to get the floor ball, others still successfully blocked Xiuichi and stopped Xiuichi who was preparing to take a quick move.
“Haha, luck~”
Xiuichi, who wanted to shoot quickly, failed to get the chance to take action due to Hanada's quick response. Looking at Hanada who was defending in front of him, Xiuichi pretended to breathe a sigh of relief and stopped the offensive action.
"Haha, yes."
The single-celled flower duct immediately connected the cavity. Looking at Xiuyi who stopped attacking, he couldn't help but relax his defensive movements and straightened his waist.
"ikebana…………"
Xiu Yi shouted at Huadao, but in her hand she made a quick shot.
"What's the matter? Previously..."
Hanao, who subconsciously followed the silence, did not notice Xiuyi's movements. When Hanao discovered it, Xiuyi had already pulled out his hand and scored the ball.
"What???"
"hateful!!"
"Senior Xiuyi, this despicable and shameless villain!"
Seeing Xiuyi scored a goal, Hanado realized that he had been deceived by Xiuyi. Hanado, who was unable to guard against Xiuyi, cursed in anger.
"Bastard! You were distracted by yourself!"
Tian Ye gave Hanao a love palm from behind and slapped Hanao hard on Hanao's back.
"Brother!"
The pain caused tears to be found in the corners of Huadao's eyes. Huadao, who failed to defend and encountered Tianye's iron palm, felt that his young heart was hurt. He couldn't help but scream at Tianye.
"Hahahaha, it's so simple."
"I am your enemy now, Kamidao, don't be confused by the enemy's words."
"This is what I gave you today, senior!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Shuichi succeeded in the offense. Although their team was behind, the simple Sakuragi made his mood suddenly improve.
“Emmmmmmmm!”
Hanado was so choked that he couldn't speak, so he could only make such a sound to express his dissatisfaction.
After the farce of Sakuragi Hanado, the team practice game of Lennan High School was back on track.
In order to balance the strength of both sides, Coach Tarooka did not prepare to send Tianno to the field after the first half. Fukuda was the one who replaced Tianno.
Fukuda was already feeling indignant about his return to Sakuragi, but unexpectedly, as soon as the first half ended, Coach Taoka decided to reactivate his in the second half.
And the replacement was Tian Ye, which made him feel that he was indeed valued.
"Rest for 10 minutes and prepare for the second half!"
Coach Tarooka gave instructions, and the team practice match started again after a short break.
In the second half, Sendo stood up as the main scoring force in the first grade and maintained the offensive efficiency of the first grade team with his outstanding personal ability.
However, there was a big problem with the inside in the first grade. After Tianno got off the court, the task of defending Yuzhu fell on Hanada, while the task of defending Shuichi was handed over to Fukuda.
The two of them joined forces to suppress Yuzhu and Xiuyi's joint attack. Although Sendao sometimes comes to make up for defense, the more sneak attacks, the two insiders will become familiar with each other and fail more times.
In the second half of the game, the second and third grade teams gradually broke the score back. Hanadao and Fukuda were both suppressed, and other players could not provide effective support, and Sendao could not support it alone.
Finally, the first-grade team lost the practice game without any surprise. Although the first-grade team lost, Coach Taoka was quite satisfied with the overall performance of the first-grade team. The players before the New Year showed great potential.
Several players are players that Coach Tarooka thinks he can take the lead in the future.
The growth rate of Sakuragi Hanamichi was even more satisfying. Although Hanamichi, who was on the court for the first time, showed shortcomings of insufficient experience, the flaws did not conceal the merits. Hanamichi's defensive ability and frame protection ability have begun to gradually show their talents.
In just 20 minutes of the second half, Hanadao won five rebounds for the first grade. And it was grabbed when Fukuda was not good enough and he fought Yuzuru and Shuichi alone.
I have to say that the flower path is doing a very good job in protecting the frame.
Huadao's offensive ability can now perform slam dunks. Although the offensive methods are relatively simple, it is already an extraordinary thing for a newcomer who has been learning the ball for a month and a half.
During the entire 25-year-old playing time, Hanao scored 5 rebounds, 6 points and 3 assists. He handed over his first report card in his basketball career. The result made Coach Taoka and Hideichi and Tano, who had been training Hanao, feel
A team practice match gave the first graders of Lingnan High School a sense of urgency. In the face of Huadao's outstanding performance, the first graders with mediocre results became ashamed.
A group of senior high school players performed worse than that of a third-year junior high school student, Sakuragi Hanamichi, who played for less than two months.
After the game, Coach Tarooka caught the first-grade players with poor performance and scolded them hard, and by the way, he added some training volume to them.
The training of the Lingnan High School basketball team this day ended with Coach Taroka’s angry scolding!
