Slam Dunk: Muguro

Chapter 187 Aso, I am the coach!

At the end of the first half, the coaches and players of Hainan High School were discussing the matter.

Amu held his chin and said, "In the first half, Xiangyang was able to keep the score, mainly because their touch was better. Once the touch cooled, I'm afraid it would be bad."

Ikeda Kazuhiro then said: "In addition to Muguro, Akagi is also the key to the Xiangbei team's ability to establish an advantage!"

Junichiro Nozawa was unable to take away Akagi on the offensive end, causing Akagi to sit in the paint area. Shoyo's efficiency in attacking the basket can be imagined.

Many Xiangyang players would rather shoot outside than rush into the paint.

This can be seen from Akagi's four blocks in the first half.

"You are right. If Xiangyang doesn't change, he will probably fail miserably!"

Coach Gaotou made a summary, but did not make any final decisions.

What if Xiangyang's collective touch explodes? It's not impossible.

In the plot year, this is what happened to Xiangbei in the second half of the Xiangshan battle.

In addition, the gap between Shoyo and Shohoku is very small, far less than that between Shohoku and Sanno Industrial in the plot year.

Although Shohoku was very strong in the plot year, it was at a disadvantage in almost every position. Sanno Industrial sent out second and third year players, and their team cooperation was also better than Shohoku.

The five tigers of Xiangbei only played together for three months at most.

If Coach Domoto hadn't been such a jerk and hadn't been fooled by Coach Anzai the entire time, how could Sanno Industrial, with their trump card, have lost?

Xiangyang bench!
Fujima stood in front of the coach anxiously and said, "Coach, if we want to beat Xiangbei, we must make some changes!"

"Look, you're in a hurry!"

Coach Shoyo frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied with Fujima's behavior, thinking that Fujima had overstepped the mark.

However, he still responded in a gentle manner: "Fujima, what do you think? You can speak freely!"

Fujima quickly offered his suggestion: "Coach, why don't we let Hanagata play?"

Hearing Fujima say this, Hanagata, who was sitting next to him, smiled slightly, hoping to win the coach's trust.

However, the Shoyo coach shook his head firmly, his tone unquestionable: "No, if Hanagata plays, how can we guarantee the rim protection and rebounds?"

The Shoyo coach thought Fujima wanted to replace Junichiro Nozawa and immediately rejected Fujima's proposal.

You know, Junichiro Nozawa is the defensive core of the team. Without Junichiro Nozawa protecting the basket, Shoyo's defense will definitely be greatly reduced.

In addition, he thought the flower shape was too tender and it would be better to wait until it matured, such as another year or two.

He would not entrust important tasks to other freshmen unless they were of Fujima's level.

In order to allow Hanagata to play, Fujima came up with another idea: "Coach, we can let the captain play as a small forward and let Hanagata play as a power forward. He has enough height advantage, which can improve our inside height."

Fujima winked at Hanagata, who quickly stood up, held his head high and chest out, trying his best to show off his superior figure.

During this period, Hanagata was 195 cm tall and his body shape had improved, weighing 81 kg.

Taro Aso also responded, "Coach, let Hanagata play!"

If he plays as a small forward, he may not have to face off against Murasakibara.

Taro Aso probably doesn't know that no matter how his position changes, Murasakibara will always be against him.

Because this is the task assigned to him by Coach Anxi!

As the team's ace, Taro Aso's importance to Shoyo is unquestionable.

Coach Shoyo glanced at Taro Aso suspiciously, thinking that he was openly challenging his authority.

"No! Hanagata lacks competition experience and his skills are not yet fully formed. He needs more time to hone them."

Coach Xiangyang was stubborn and refused again without hesitation.

After hearing what the coach said, Hua Xing suddenly wilted and sat on the bench in a daze.

As expected, he is only fit to play in garbage time.

"But……"

"That's it!"

Taro Aso wanted to say something else but was interrupted by the Shoyo coach.

At this moment, Taro Aso was instantly furious. "Coach, you will regret this!"

"Aso, I'm the coach!"

bang~
Taro Aso couldn't hold it in any longer and angrily slapped the bench, making a dull sound.

Coach Xiangyang raised his eyebrows and disagreed.

He naturally would not keep Taro Aso on the bench.

No matter what, Taro Aso is the team's ace.

The key is that he is an honest man and is definitely the most suitable person to take the blame for the team's loss, especially since he was beaten by Murasakibara.

Finally, if he loses this game, it will also be Taro Aso's last game in Shoyo.

If he doesn't take the blame, who will?
However, what the Shoyo coach didn't know was that Fujima already had a problem with him.

While the Shoyo bench was on the edge of their seats, the Shohoku bench was in a happy mood.

After more than half a year of hard training, the physical fitness of the three giants of Xiangbei has improved significantly.

Even the worst Mitsui has reached an excellent level of physical fitness. Unless there are consecutive fierce battles, it is difficult for him to show signs of fatigue.

However, they still took advantage of the half-time break to replenish their energy.

Akagi took two bites of a banana with a comfortable expression on his face, and he looked exactly like a gorilla.

There are only wrong names, no wrong nicknames!
Soon, Coach Anxi picked up the tactical board and began to make tactical arrangements for the second half.

"In the second half, we need to focus on the defensive end!"

Coach Anzai paused for a moment and continued, "As for the offense, leave it to Mu Mu!"

In the first half, most of the Xiangbei players' energy was concentrated on the offensive end, while the defensive end mainly relied on the players' self-consciousness.

However, no matter how lazy the Xiangbei players are, they will not use their eyes to defend like the future Goat.

He is as fierce as a tiger in fast breaks and relies on his eyes to defend. This is the true portrayal of the future Goat!
If he continues to play like this, he can play for at least a few more years!
The Xiangbei players shouted in unison: "Yes, coach!"

Soon after, the second half finally began amid the cheers of the audience.

Akagi once again overpowered Junichiro Nozawa and won the jump ball.

Having a jump ball expert is almost equivalent to having two more ball possessions.

Following the coach's instructions, Nobuhiko Okamoto carried the ball across half court at a fast pace, then dribbled sideways to delay time.

In Murasakibara's words, giving him ten seconds would be enough.

Fujima wanted to steal the ball, but Okamoto Nobuhiko was a steady man and kept the ball firmly in his hands.

During this process, the Xiangbei players did not run like they did in the first half, but simply dispersed to leave enough space for Murasakibara to play one-on-one.

After wasting some time, Nobuhiko Okamoto finally passed the ball to Murasakibara.

Outside the three-point line, Murasakibara caught the ball with both hands, in a three-threat stance.

When he saw Murasakibara holding the ball, Taro Aso became anxious and subconsciously stretched out his right hand, trying to block Murasakibara's view.

Because he was too anxious, he seemed not to measure the distance properly, causing his hand to press directly on Murasakibara's head.

Murasaki was confused!
Brother, what are you doing!
Could this be the legendary 'Guo-style defense'?
The future 'Melo' once defended the 'elementary school student' in this way.

In order to stop Curry's attack, Anthony used head-touching defense!
I'll hold you down and see how you show off!

Beep~
Even the referee was stunned for a moment, and after he realized what was happening, he quickly blew the whistle.

Inside the stadium, the audience burst into laughter, and their smiles became increasingly wicked!

"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it!"

Taro Aso apologized to Murasakibara with a helpless look, and then he couldn't help laughing.

"fine!"

Murasaki waved his hands and said it was just an accident.
