Chapter 272 Mitsui: I am the captain
Chapter 272 Mitsui, I am the captain
After this day's training, Yuzhu spontaneously stayed to practice more.
In addition to him, there are Ikegami, Fukuda, Cross Country and Sugahira.
Chishang, like Uozumi, has become accustomed to extra training.
As for why the three freshmen stayed, I'm afraid it has something to do with the intra-team match just now.
The performance of Futian and Cross Country was relatively poor. Needless to say, the former played very passionately, but the mid-range shooting was very unstable. This game was mostly dominated by irons.
As for Sugahira, he only played 3 minutes in a normal game. His performance can only be described as a disaster. He was completely lost on the court. It felt like one player was missing from the freshman team.
The main reason why they stay and practice more is to improve their strength as soon as possible, so as to get a chance to play in the county competition, especially to enter the starting lineup.
Uozumi's favorites, Naito and Sendō, had no intention of training more. Naito was a little tired of training more, while Sendō went fishing.
In the process of additional training, Yuzhu soon couldn’t stand it any longer.
These three freshmen have many flaws in their skills. It seems that they have not studied systematically, and they do not know how their junior high school coaches taught them.
As a physical education teacher and school team coach in his previous life, Uozumi was still willing to coach students.
First, Uozumi shouted to Fukuda: "Fukuda, do you usually turn around like this? Forget it, let me show you the turning movement first.
Any technique is people-oriented, and only the one that suits you is the best. However, I think if you add this step during the turning process, you can make better use of your body to suppress the opponent, which can bring out the best in you.
Advantages in strength and weight. You will try it first, Sugahira, you will defend Fukuda."
Uozumi deliberately slowed down his movements and demonstrated to Fukuda, teaching Fukuda step by step.
Fukuda has a strong body and is not short of talent and hard work. His biggest flaw is that he has only been exposed to basketball for a short time. If he can avoid some detours, he may not be able to become a top player with both offense and defense.
Among SD players, Futian is still relatively pity.
Someone once said that if Futian had off-road looks, then his popularity would not be much less than Xiandao.
Unfortunately, what Fukuda has is the appearance of Jimmy Butler.
Fukuda's playing style is close to that of Kenyon Martin, and he is best at cutting and facing the frame. Due to his serious lack of game experience, he is a representative player who is strong in offense and weak in defense.
Because he is very competitive, Futian has always regarded Xiandao as his competitor, and this is also the goal he strives for.
If Fukuda hadn't beaten Coach Taoka and was expelled from Lingnan, if he hadn't played in a game for a year and received the correct guidance from the coach, his strength would have been much better, and at least his defense wouldn't have been that bad.
With Fukuda's physical fitness, and he is not unwilling to defend, as long as he makes up for his lack of game experience, his defense can reach a qualified level.
Soon, Fukuda began to try the turning movements taught by Uozumi.
Although it is not consistent, Fukuda is willing to work hard for it.
During Fukuda's attempt, Sugahira tried to resist, but his resistance was a bit weak. Fukuda used his body to suppress him tightly, leaving him unable to resist.
The core point of this set of movements is to better use your body to suppress the opponent and immobilize him. Of course, if you encounter someone with better physical fitness, the effect will be different.
"Futian, you need to practice this set of movements more until you are proficient."
"Yes, Captain!"
Fukuda rarely showed a grateful look in his eyes. From the time he came into contact with basketball, he has been basically exploring alone, or he and Ashen are "rookies". Uozumi's teachings gave him a feeling of finding an organization.
.
Especially since Uozumi holds the title of being the best high school student in the country, it would be strange for Fukuda not to be excited.
"With Uozumi-senpai's teachings, I will definitely have a chance to defeat Xian Dao in the future."
This is Futian's inner thought, and defeating Xiandao is also his goal after joining Lingnan.
As for Naito, who is also a freshman, he gave up this idea after competing with Uozumi.
"I hope Futian will not be kicked out of school by Lingnan like in the original work!"
Uozumi secretly thought that if Futian had not dropped out of school, Futian would have been stronger with the correct guidance.
After coaching Fukuda, Uozumi turned to look at Cross Country and said: "Ikegami, please help Cross Country correct his shooting movements. Cross Country, if possible, you'd better practice the three-point shot."
Although he is very passionate about playing cross-country, he is still a bit short for a shooting guard given his height. Unless he grows a few centimeters taller in the future, he may only be a substitute player in this Lingnan team.
Finally, Uozumi's eyes fell on Sugahira.
"Sugahira, to be honest, with your physical condition, you are not suitable to be an inside post.
However, you have the speed and flexibility of a small forward, so I think you can try to play small forward instead.
With your height and wingspan, you have a huge advantage when playing small forward. Of course, you must have a stable mid-range and long-range shot."
Uozumi gave Sugahira reasonable advice, but whether he could listen to it or not depends mainly on himself.
Uozumi's idea is very simple. He doesn't ask Sugahira to become Durant, he just wants to become a qualified tall shooter.
"Captain, thank you for your guidance."
Sugahira was very excited and took the initiative to bow to Uozumi to thank him.
During his junior high school days, Sugahira had always been an insider, but he only got bullied. Over time, this made him afraid of confrontation and made him less and less confident.
Now Uozumi has shown him another path, and Sugahira is willing to make changes.
After the instruction, Uozumi nodded with satisfaction and also joined the training.
Three days later, Lingnan University.
Yuzhu stood at the school gate, ignoring the surprised looks of passers-by, waiting for the arrival of the Xiangbei team.
This is the task assigned to him by coach Taoka. According to his words, doing so is a sign of respect for the Shohoku team and coach Anzai.
In terms of etiquette, Coach Tian Gang did a good job indeed.
Soon, the Shohoku team came into sight, led by the tall and powerful Akagi and Mitsui.
Uozumi's eyes fell on Mitsui's right sleeve, where there was an armband.
This is the team captain’s armband!
"Unexpectedly, Mitsui became the captain of Shohoku, and the plot changed again!"
Yuzhu was surprised. If he said he wasn't surprised, he would definitely be lying.
However, thinking about it, he felt it was normal.
Compared with Akagi, Mitsui is indeed more suitable to be the captain.
Akagi has a bad temper and likes to educate players with his fists. He is easily nervous during games.
Mitsui is different. His golf IQ is very high, and he also has leadership skills. This is evident from the fact that his words and deeds are recognized by others, including Sakuragi, who is also willing to listen to him.
Compared with Mitsui, Akagi is quite average in this aspect and does not perform as well as Mitsui.
In addition, Mitsui's current strength is also slightly higher than Akagi.
