"Senior, please guide me!"
They bowed in unison, including the current captain, Shimizu Kazato, and all the members of the basketball court. They put down what they were doing and saluted the seniors in red vests seriously.
A few cocky guys nodded their heads in a reserved manner and slowly walked towards the center circle of the stadium. During this time, the guy with the longest body and a hedgehog head kept looking at me strangely. From the looks of it, it seemed like I was planning to " shoot the bird that took the lead."
Including the former captain and vice-captain, there were a total of six seniors. The captain was the shooting guard Otani, the vice-captain was the small forward, Usuda, the center was Sasaki, the power forward was Koyama, and the rest were Kawada and Otsuka. Of course, as the captain, Otani wouldn't play.
"You guys decide on the starting members.”After watching his predecessors leave, Captain Clearwater continued,"Although this is an internal training match, I hope you can show some fighting spirit. You know, if you lose too badly, I will also be blamed.”
This sentence made everyone who was originally a little excited shrink their heads. Everyone looked at each other. In the end, everyone looked at me. I was also observing the senior students, secretly comparing the combat strength of both sides.
Compared to the rookies on our side, the seniors are undoubtedly much better than us in terms of physique, experience, and techniques.
"We're definitely going to lose." I muttered to myself. Then, I raised my head and couldn't help but jump in shock.
What are you all looking at me for?
"Even Lin Tian said so…"
"This is bad…"
"Sigh, I suddenly don't want to go on stage…"
The freshmen were all wailing.
"Cheer up!" Captain Qingshui slapped me on the head and gave me a cold smack."If you cower before the battle, you'll definitely lose. However, you still have to do the formalities…"
"In short, the few of you better be good and stay alert. You should properly receive the education of love from your seniors!”
Does this guy have a grudge against me? I rolled my eyes at him.
After Captain Qingshui left, the few rookies stammered. Other than the slut Xiao Tian, who crossed his arms and looked up at the sky with confidence, the rest of them looked like they didn't have any confidence. To be honest, there are quite a number of new members in the club this time. Including me, there are a total of eight people. Including the eight people in the second and third grade, the entire basketball club has more than ten people. I think it has something to do with the "folk customs" here. After all, it's such a famous school.
After a round of humility and the impatient shouts of Captain Shimizu, the eight rookies discussed the results. Oda and I would be the center and shooting guard respectively. The bespectacled Saiji would be the point guard. The power forward would be Murata Fujiya, who was the biggest here. The small forward that surprised me was the handsome boy called Jiugong. As for the rest, to be honest, their physical conditions were a little uneven, but everyone knew their place and gave in.
As for the coach, there is no coach for middle school students. At most, he is just a physical education teacher in name. Yes, that's what I think. There were also tactics and playstyles. For this group of middle school students, it was still too early. Including high schools, all countries emphasized on " people-oriented ", which was to focus on training young players and win or lose. To put it simply, it was the feeling of " if you can do it, go ahead."
Therefore, the importance of star players in this level of competition was obvious. I'm not an arrogant person, but after I accept anything, I want to do it seriously. This is my attitude.
"Alright, please get into position. Jump ball after the whistle.”Captain Qingshui gestured with his hands in a serious manner. Following his voice, everyone lined up in a very cooperative manner.
"The game time is 20 minutes, with a 10-minute period. There are no free throws for fouls, so it will be handled by a restart. The rest of the rules are the same as the game.”
"Begin!"
The whistle sounded, and the two people in the middle circle jumped up at the same time. Their calves tightened and they exerted strength. Oda and the red center touched the ball at the same time. However, they lost because they were young. The other center's palm was like a knife as he took the lead to push the ball to his side.
“！”
As if feeling the illusion of a breeze blowing on his face, a figure flashed past in the next second. The ball hit the floor and made a sound. The player in the red vest took the lead and arrived at our side in an instant.
By the time we, who were in yellow vests, reacted, the red figure was already beyond the two-point line.
Everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream and hurriedly chased after him. However, the other party dribbled a few times and was three steps slower. He successfully made a layup.
At this moment, even I, who had been expressionless all this while, bit my lip in embarrassment. Even though they had thought that they might be the first to score the first goal because they lacked experience, it was still embarrassing when things happened in front of them.
With my knowledge and age from my previous life, I still hadn't played an official match in this life. I made the same mistake as all beginners. After the kickoff, I only remembered to stare at the basketball and not look at my defenders.
"Hehe, rookie, be serious.”This senior was indeed a good person. After scoring the goal, he didn't mock us. Instead, he brushed past us with a righteous look.
After the head-on attack, everyone became more cautious. The bespectacled man, Ando, slowly dribbled the ball across the center line. The other party did not take any measures to steal or press. It seemed that they wanted to test our strength.
After crossing the middle line, everyone, including me, stood in their usual positions. That was, the center forward was in the two 45s inside the line, the guard was in the flank, and the small forward was in the bottom corner.
Like a grenade with its safety dropped, the basketball was quickly stuffed into my hands. I unconsciously pursed my lips and looked at the person who was defending me. It was the guy who kept looking at me with strange eyes at the beginning. His name seemed to be Urita.
"Newbie, I heard that you defeated Little Tian.”When that guy saw me looking at him, he laughed arrogantly."I've also heard from Qing Shui that Xiao Tian, who could defeat Qing Shui, was defeated by you. Looks like you're not bad, newbie.”
Although he was very unhappy and wanted to roll his eyes to express his dissatisfaction, but…
Forget it, he was a senior.
He raised the basketball high and observed his teammates 'condition at the same time.
It was just as I had imagined. No one moved, no one ran, and no one covered me. It was as if everyone was waiting for me to play solo. Xiao Tian, that b * tch, was originally stuck in position to get the ball, but when he saw the ball in my hand, he quickly let go.
He had no choice but to do it himself.
The ball has been in my hands for a while now. If I shoot now, it's not at all in rhythm. I placed the ball on the ground with my right hand, and at the same time, I took small steps to the right. Hedgehog head Urita followed closely behind me. Perhaps it was because of the publicity effect of my battle record, but although this guy said it casually, his body and spirit were going all out. It seemed that he definitely wanted to teach me a lesson.
After receiving the ball, there are only three choices: breakthrough, shooting, and passing. This is what I have always agreed with. However, he had already lost the initiative just now. If he were to dribble like this now, he would only be able to confuse himself, let alone others.
I took a step forward and paused. As expected, Urita pressed his body forward. I raised my hand and raised my elbow. When the opponent retreated slightly, I threw the ball directly over his head in the direction of the small glasses Ando. Everyone was waiting for my one-on-one, so the sudden pass shocked even my teammates. Ando hurriedly caught the ball, and the opponent's short point guard only had time to force the ball to intercept.
While everyone's attention was on Yasuko, I suddenly leaned forward without the ball in my hand. Hedgehog Head quickly reacted and took a step back. I stopped and ran back to Yasuko.
"Ball!" I shouted at him in a low voice. Urita was a little slow by my decisive reaction. By the time I reacted, I had already overtaken him by a few steps. I received a hand-to-hand pass from Anto and instantly broke through from the left side of Anto to the middle of the penalty area. I immediately stopped and jumped in the air. At this time, Urita also came to my side. The opponent's power forward also tried to block with him. However, thanks to my strange posture, the basketball quickly shot out and directly passed through the fingertips of the two people and entered the net.
Urita waved his hand in frustration. He was about to say something to me, but I didn't have the time to do so. I turned around and smiled at my dazed teammates, waving my fists.
"Defend!"
