Chapter 181 I'm Free, I'm Free!
Chapter 181 I’m empty, I’m empty!
Although Coach Kitano has always advocated happy basketball and run-and-gun tactics, given his age and qualifications, he naturally understands other tactics.
It's just that Coach Kitano is quite stubborn and has always wanted to prove that running and gun tactics can win championships. As a result, after so many years, Toyotama's best result under Coach Kitano's coaching is the top eight in the country and he has never been able to go further.
This time, Coach Kitano coaches the Osaka team, and the meaning is different from last year.
He must prove himself in this Autumn National Sports Competition, because he knows very well that this is his last chance.
And if you want to prove yourself, you must rely on your results.
Before coming to Akita Prefecture, the Osaka Prefecture Organizing Committee entrusted him with important tasks and also gave him a goal, which is to become the top four in the country!
If you want to become the top four in the country, you must defeat the powerful Kanagawa representative team.
Coach Kitano knows very well that if he cannot do it, some people will completely lose their patience, and he is not far away from packing up and leaving.
Therefore, in order to win, Coach Kitano decided to make a desperate move and actively changed his formation in the hope of defeating Kanagawa.
It was precisely this situation that led Coach Kitano to use such a lineup at the beginning, and did not use his best bombardment tactics.
Unfortunately, his purpose was not achieved.
Originally, he thought that with an excellent human shield like Ogi Satoshi, he could more or less restrict Uozumi on the defensive end. However, judging from the defense in these rounds, he could not limit Uozumi's performance at all.
Not only that, Okichi, who had not developed a mid-range shot, was unable to pull Uozumi out, causing Uozumi to stay in the penalty area, which in turn restricted his own offense.
If it weren't for the hot hands of its players, the Osaka team would definitely be at a clear disadvantage.
On the Osaka bench, Coach Kitano's eyes turned around on the bench and finally landed on a slender player.
His name is Tajiri Shigeru, he is 194 centimeters tall and 77 kilograms, and he comes from Daiei Academy.
His attack range can extend beyond the three-point line, and his shortcoming is also obvious, that is, his serious lack of confrontation, which can be seen from his size.
Tajiri Shigeru is very thin, giving the impression that he is skinny and bones.
"Oki Tomoshita, Tajiri Shigeru! Tajiri Shigeru, on the offensive end, you have to pull Uozumi away as much as possible. As for the defensive end... you have to figure it out yourself!"
When Coach Kitano spoke, he couldn't help showing his unbearable expression.
Tajiri Shigeru is too thin, and he is really afraid that he will fall apart if he is hit by a fish.
But as a coach, he can only do this.
In fact, Kitano coach Uedajiri Shigeru has another meaning.
He is trying his best to maintain the relationship between Toyotama and Daiei Academy, so that the two parties can cooperate more sincerely.
As for players from other schools, that's a shame. Unless their strength reaches the level of top players, they should sit on the bench obediently.
Coach Kitano paused and continued: "After a while, we will switch to a run-and-gun tactic after taking the field."
As soon as Coach Kitano finished speaking, Nanlie, Kishimoto and Asakura Tianha all smiled.
What they are best at is the run-and-gun tactic. They were not allowed to use the run-and-gun tactic just now, so they were a little tangled on the court.
Many habits are not so easy to change.
Kanagawa bench!
Coach Kaneda didn't say much, and he didn't make any substitutions. He just talked about the same old talk and hoped that the players would strengthen their cooperation.
Seeing this scene, Uozumi felt what Fujima was feeling.
This is really an ordinary coach. Apart from other aspects, his on-the-spot performance is average.
Fortunately, Coach Kaneda is coaching Xiangyang. If it were Lingnan, Uozumi would also go crazy.
For a player like Fujima who cares very much about winning and losing, it is normal for him to dislike Coach Kaneda.
When the timeout ends, players from both sides continue to play.
For the first time, Uozumi looked at Tajiri Shigeru. He didn't know him, but judging from his size, his characteristics should be similar to Asakura Tenyu.
However, this guy is too thin!
Asakura Tianyu is already considered thin, and Tajiri Shigeru wants to lose weight even more.
Uozumi even felt that if he bumped lightly, the opponent would be broken by him.
At this time, Tajiri Shigeru was serving a sideline ball.
He looks very calm, not afraid of catching fish like ordinary centers, and passes the ball smoothly with great skill.
The next moment, Tajiri Shigeru ran directly to the left corner, where he has the highest three-point shooting rate.
Uozumi had no choice but to follow him. Due to his height and wingspan advantages, he and Tajiri Shigeru were two steps away.
However, Tajiri Shigeru is not stationary. He will run with Uozumi from time to time according to the situation on the field to avoid Uozumi 'harassing' other players as much as possible.
After some passing, Asakura Tianyu ran out of opportunity and easily hit a ball in the corner area, thus taking the lead.
Offense and defense transition!
Mu Shen dribbled the ball steadily past half-court and began to observe the situation on the court.
Compared with just now, he could feel that the Osaka team's defense seemed a little looser.
This is also a helpless move. Run-and-gun tactics require a lot of physical fitness. Not to mention high school students, even NBA players can do all the offense and all defense.
Therefore, they are bound to focus more on the offensive end.
"I'm empty, I'm empty!"
Suddenly, the voice of Yuzhu sounded.
Mu Shen took a look and found that Tajiri Shigeru was following Yuzumi, and couldn't help but smile.
However, with Tajiri Shigeru's body shape, what's the difference between living in a fish and being empty?
Without hesitation, Mu Shen passed the ball.
Just when Uozumi was about to catch the ball, Tajiri Shigeru took the initiative to harass him, completely ignoring the size difference between the two.
Unfortunately, this is of no use.
Tajiri Shigeru was easily stuck behind Uozumi. The moment he caught the ball, Uozumi gave him a 'light' back-to-back hit.
He was afraid of hitting Tajiri Shigeru badly, so he withdrew some of his strength.
Even though Uozumi had reduced his strength, Tajiri Shigeru's expression still changed and his body couldn't stop retreating.
To Uozumi's surprise, Tajiri Shigeru pounced on Uozumi again after gaining a firm foothold.
Even though he knew it was useless, he still worked hard.
Bang~
Uozumi relied on hitting again, and Tajiri staggered back, but he still gritted his teeth and rushed forward.
At this time, Uozumi quickly turned around, carried Tajiri Shigeru on his left shoulder and rushed toward the basket.
Tajiri Shigeru gritted his teeth and resisted desperately, but was unable to restrain Uozumi at all. He staggered, and finally fell to the ground. He could only watch helplessly as Uozumi rushed into the penalty area and scored a layup.
At this time, Tajiri Shigeru felt as if his whole body was falling apart. Just after confronting Uozumi, he felt that he could no longer hold on.
He could only smile bitterly at this. The gap between the two sides was too big. To fight Yuzhu head-on was tantamount to hitting an egg with a stone.
Just when Tajiri Shigeru was struggling to stand up, suddenly, a big hand came into view.
He looked up and found that it was actually a fish.
Chapter completed!
