Slam Dunk: Muguro

Chapter 34 County Tournament Match Schedule
After the one-on-one duel ended, Rukawa wiped the sweat off his face and came to Murasakibara.

Rukawa Kaede took the initiative to extend his hand and said, "Senior, I am a sophomore at Fuqiu Middle School - Rukawa Kaede!"

Although he had just lost the duel, his eyes did not show any loss or frustration.

This is Rukawa Kaede!

Mugure held Rukawa's hand and replied with a smile: "I am a first-year student of Xiangbei High School - Mugure Gongyan!"

The handshake between them is not only a courtesy, but also an affirmation of each other's strength.

"Senior, I have an unwelcome request,"

Rukawa Kaede looked hesitant, then made up his mind and said with courage: "I have also learned the crossover step, but I still can't find the trick, and I don't know what went wrong. I hope to get your guidance so that I can truly master this breakthrough technique!"

His eyes reveal his love for basketball and his desire for strength.

At this stage, Rukawa is still in the stage of playing with his body.

Murasakibara looked at Rukawa Kaede, with a glimmer of approval in his eyes. He admired Rukawa Kaede's persistence and love for basketball.

In addition, Rukawa Kaede is his future teammate.

Most importantly, he also wanted to learn the ultimate pull-up skill from Rukawa Kaede and prepare for the fadeaway jump shot.

Once you master the fadeaway jump shot, and combine it with the turnaround jump shot, it becomes the turnaround fadeaway jump shot, which is a real killer on the court.

"can!"

After receiving Murasakibara's affirmative answer, Rukawa was obviously relieved and his heart was filled with gratitude.

He knew very well how precious such an opportunity was.

"Rukawa, you perform it first!"

Mu Mu stood aside and watched carefully.

Rukawa picked up the basketball and started to perform the crossover step.

He first took a step forward with his left foot, and then quickly crossed his right foot from behind his left foot, shifting his body's center of gravity.

He tried to speed up, trying to make each of his movements as smooth and natural as possible.

Unfortunately, Rukawa himself could feel that his movements were not smooth and were far from comparable to Murasakibara's cross step.

From Murasakibara's point of view, Rukawa Kaede's crossover step has obviously not yet been mastered.

As a player who has mastered the LV7 crossover step, Murasakibara could see the crux of Rukawa's problem at a glance, such as his coordination problems and a certain lag when he shifted his center of gravity.

"Rukawa, I've discovered your problem. For example, your coordination..."

Murasakibara did not keep his skills to himself, but began to guide and correct Rukawa's movements step by step.

Rukawa Kaede carefully memorized Murasakibara's teachings and turned them into his own nourishment.

Under Murasakibara's guidance, he gradually found the trick of the cross step.

Soon, Rukawa tried again.

Although there are still problems, Rukawa Kaede clearly feels that the crossover step movement has become smoother.

However, if you want to master this skill, you need to practice continuously.

Rukawa is talented and hardworking, especially his crossover step, which is just one step away from success. Under the guidance of Murasakibara, it didn't take long for him to master the crossover step technique.

“Thank you for your guidance, senior!”

Rukawa Kaede's voice was full of gratitude.

He seems aloof and serious, but he is actually very polite, as can be seen from his attitude towards Ayako, Anzai, Akagi and others.

Mu Mu showed a warm smile, waved his hand and said: "Don't be so polite! Rukawa, if you want to learn other skills, I can teach you!"

He was happy to teach his skills to Rukawa without reservation. After all, both of them were the owners of the No. 11 jersey of Xiangbei, which could be regarded as a kind of inheritance. Moreover, Rukawa's strength would be a good thing for the future of Xiangbei.

He also wanted to know what kind of achievements Rukawa Kaede could achieve under his guidance and whether he was qualified to gain a foothold in the NBA.
"Senior, is this really possible?"

Rukawa Kaede was obviously excited. He couldn't believe that such a precious opportunity was right in front of him, but he knew even more clearly how rare this opportunity was.

He must seize this opportunity!
He was well aware of how powerful Murasakibara's skills were.

If Murasakibara's defense was better, he probably wouldn't have gotten a single point.

"can!"

Looking at Rukawa's excited expression, Murasakibara really wanted to take a picture of this scene to prove that Rukawa was not expressionlessly paralyzed.

Too bad I didn’t bring my camera!
"Senior, thank you for your kindness!"

Rukawa's gratitude to Murasakibara was beyond words. He bowed deeply to Murasakibara to express his respect and gratitude to Murasakibara.

Given Rukawa's love for basketball, one can imagine how high a position Murasakibara holds in his mind at this moment.

"Rukawa, you're too polite. By the way, I'm very interested in the pull-up bar. How about you teach me how to do it?"

Murasaki finally stated his purpose.

However, in Rukawa's view, this was a way out that Murasakibara took the initiative to give him.

"It's my pleasure!"

Rukawa quickly agreed and began to explain the techniques of pulling the rod.

This is a skill he learned from watching Jordan's video. The fadeaway jump shot is also a product of this, but he has not yet mastered it.

The pull-up technique is mainly used to avoid the block of the defensive player. By changing the body posture and direction, the ball can be completed from the other side for a layup or shot, thereby improving scoring efficiency.

However, this requires strong waist and abdominal strength, good jumping ability, accurate judgment and excellent ball sense.

In addition, the take-off point should not be too forward or too backward. It is best to choose a place 1 to 1.5 meters away from the basket. Also, try to avoid physical contact with the defensive players as much as possible to avoid losing balance.

Under Rukawa Kaede's patient guidance, the prompt sound finally sounded after a while.

[Congratulations on acquiring a new skill - Extreme Pull Rod! ]

"By the way, Rukawa, don't you have to go to school today?"

Suddenly, Murasakibara asked a question that shocked Rukawa Kaede's heart.

Rukawa Kaede's expression changed slightly, with a barely perceptible panic in his eyes. He completely forgot that he still had to go to school.

"Oh no, we're going to be late!"

"Rukawa, you can come to Xiangbei to find me anytime!"

"Senior, I'm leaving first. Goodbye!"

Rukawa got on his bicycle and prepared to leave.

"goodbye!!"

Looking at Rukawa's slightly hurried figure, Murasakibara couldn't help but smile.

Not long after, Murasakibara walked into the Shohoku basketball hall.

Surprisingly, at this time of day, there is usually no one in the stadium.

But today is different. At this moment, many players have gathered in the stadium. They are gathered together, pointing at a piece of paper on the wall.

When Murasakibara approached, he found that they were looking at the freshly released county tournament match schedule.
