Seeing that the situation was starting to collapse, Coach Kawasaki on Tsukutake's side decisively called a time-out to give his team a break to calm down.
"Damn it!"
As soon as he returned to the resting area, Shinoichiro Minago punched the floor with his fists to vent his anger.
As for Takeshiro Tomoyuki? He lowered his head and said nothing.
Other than the three-pointer he made at the start of the game and the two-one free throw, he had done almost nothing in the past ten minutes.
The remaining seven points were all taken by Nan Xiang alone. As for the remaining three teammates, they had yet to break their eggs. It could be said that they were quite miserable.
On the other hand, Miura Dae's team was revitalized under Wu Yufei's coordination and organization. Every member had scored points, and the entire team played as a whole, forming a sharp contrast with Tsujiu Takeshi's team.
"Wu Dai, you should rest first.”
Coach Kawasaki said.
He realized that out of all the members, it was the captain and ace, Takedai, who had the worst mental breakdown.
" Coach!?"
Takehiro Tomokazu was very surprised. He didn't expect to be pressed to the bench by the coach.
Just because he had only scored four points in the past ten minutes and his performance was not good?!
"This is not a punishment for you, Wu Dai.”
Coach Kawasaki explained.
"As the captain of Tsukutake, you should have a clear understanding and judgment of the team's current situation. The purpose of letting you rest on the sidelines is to let you observe the situation on the field more clearly and analyze the tactics and methods to break through the current predicament. This is your responsibility as the captain, understand?”
"…Yes."
After listening to the coach's reassurance, Takehiro Tomokawa finally calmed down and accepted the arrangement of being temporarily replaced.
After all, he was indeed being targeted badly. Even if he continued to stay on the field, his help to the team would be pitifully weak.
Takedai wanted to help the team win.
When the pause ended and the Miura Dae players realized that the opponent's ace had been directly pressed onto the substitutes 'bench, they thought that Tsukutake had surrendered after playing for only ten minutes.
"Don't think too much. That number 15 is still on the field. Moreover, looking at their eyes, they don't have any intention of admitting defeat.”
Wu Yufei's simple words pulled everyone back to reality, and they continued to brace themselves to deal with Jin Jiuwu's change of formation.
The player who replaced Takeshiro was naturally weaker than Takeshiro. This also allowed Wu Yufei to completely not switch with Murasame Kengo and focus on dealing with the little guy called Hiroshi Natsume.
Although he was a small man, Hiroshi Natsume's strength was still average. He had the agility and speed that all small players had. He could be considered a weakened version of Miyagi Ryoda.
Unfortunately, he had encountered Wu Yufei, who was not only tall but also very agile. This was a very unreasonable situation.
After the substitution, Tsujiu Takeshi was unable to break the rhythm of the game, which was firmly controlled by Miura Dae. He could only rely on constant passing, running, and tearing the defensive line to find a little flaw in Miura Dae.
Without Takeshiro's three-pointer, Minago in the paint became the only point Tsukutake's team could rely on.
After all, compared to Naito, Minago's technique was better. Although his body was not as good as Naito's, he could still make up for this gap through technique. As for rebounding, with the help of Izumi Ohno, Miura Dae had a 10% advantage. Minago alone was obviously not enough to deal with it. Therefore, the two teams were tied in rebounding.
However, two fists were ultimately no match for four hands. Although Minami had played in a pretty good competitive state in this game and had scored a few morale-boosting goals, it still could not stop Miura Dae from slowly pulling open the gap.
When the first half of the game ended, the score between the two teams had reached 58:27. In just half a game, the difference in points had already reached more than 30 points. This also fully illustrated the huge gap in the hard power of the two teams.
The outcome was already clear.
In the second half of the game, Takehiro Tomoyuki, who had rested for ten minutes, returned to the field. His return brought a slight boost to Tsukutake's low morale. Takehiro's two consecutive three-pointers from a long distance against Wu Yufei gave Tsukutake's team the illusion that they still had a chance to fight.
In order to correct the misconception of Jin Jiuwu's players, Wu Yufei stood up again and continuously broke through the ball to send out a wonderful pass. He led the team to directly hit a 15: The 6-point attack completely extinguished Jin Jiuwu's last hope of a counterattack.
After playing for five minutes in the second half, seeing that the points gap had been pulled to 40 points, Tsukutake's head coach, Kawasaki Ichimi, finally seemed to have no choice but to accept the defeat.
After all, it was just a friendly match. Winning or losing did not matter. The key was to train the soldiers.
After using this reason to convince himself, Kawasaki Ichimi took the initiative to replace the main force on the field, officially announcing his surrender.
When Coach Harada saw Tsuhisa Takeshi's actions, he immediately responded.
Including Wu Yufei, the main force was all replaced by the players from the second and third armies.
The next ten minutes were also completely reduced to garbage time. The substitutes on both sides were very intense and anxious. After all, for the main players, the remaining time was garbage time, but for them, this was a rare opportunity to express themselves.
In the end, when the referee blew the whistle to signal the end of the game, the score was fixed at 108:62。
Miura Dae had won a huge victory in front of nearly a hundred students who had come to watch the match on their own home ground. This victory told everyone that Miura Dae would not be satisfied with last year's results.
After all, the opponents in these two friendly matches were one of last year's top eight.
After watching the entire game, the audience was full of anticipation for how much their basketball team could cause in this year's county meeting and even the national competition.
After sending off Tsujiu Takeshi and the others, Coach Harada held a brief commendation meeting.
With this victory, the two friendly matches before the Miuradai Prefectural Assembly ended with great victories.
Coach Harada had expected the victory, but he did not expect it to come so easily. This made the middle-aged man, who was used to putting on a cold expression, reveal a rare satisfied smile.
"I'm very satisfied with your performance! So I specially applied for a sum of money from the school board. I don't have to go home today. I'll treat everyone to a big meal!”
As a private school with the intention of aristocratic development, the board of directors of Miura Station was quite willing to spend money on various cultural and sports clubs in the school, which was not available in public high schools like Xiangbei.
Coach Harada led the basketball players, who had just finished playing a game and were starving, to a nice-looking sushi restaurant near the school.
If it was just Sushi, then there shouldn't be a problem.
Wu Yufei had always been a professional basketball player. Whether it was his life or training, that naturally included his diet.
Therefore, even if he asked Naito Junko out for dessert, Wu Yufei only ate some fruits. He never touched things like ice cream, fried food, and milk tea. After all, his body fat percentage could be accurately checked through the system, which was very important to Wu Yufei.
When Wu Yufei heard that Coach Harada was going to take everyone out for a big meal, he had thought of finding an excuse not to go, but he didn't expect it to be a relatively healthy meal like Sushi.
In fact, this was also a mistake that Wu Yufei had made based on his experience.
In his previous life, every time after playing basketball, Wu Yufei would go to eat barbecue, hot pot, barbecue, etc. with his brothers. They would eat big bowls of meat and drink big bowls of wine.
But that was in China, after all, and at that time, he had already given up on his height. He only used basketball as a sport to strengthen his body.
Wu Yufei had forgotten that this was Japan.
As the country with the longest average life expectancy in the world, the Japanese themselves had quite good control over their diet.
Although Sushi wasn't a high-fat food, Wu Yufei still controlled his appetite. After all, he still planned to continue practicing basketball in the afternoon. He couldn't eat too much at this time.
After enjoying a sumptuous meal of Sushi, Coach Harada announced that the basketball team's activities for the day were over.
Everyone went home and enjoyed the remaining half of the weekend.
Wu Yufei naturally did not have the leisure to enjoy the weekend. For him, the weekend was the best time to practice basketball. So he returned to the basketball court the same way he came. After taking a nap in the lounge, he devoted the entire afternoon to training.
"Ah…It's really here!"
In the evening, Wu Yufei, who was practicing alone in the arena, suddenly heard the voice of a mature senior from the door.
"Takei-senpai?"
Wu Yufei was slightly surprised to see Takei Yumei suddenly appear. After two seconds, he turned around and continued practicing.
"Yu Feijun, you really don't understand. It's such a wonderful weekend, and normal high school students would usually accompany their friends or lovers, but you've been accompanying a ball until now.”
Takei Yumei smiled as she walked to Wu Yufei's practice area and picked up a basketball from the floor.
"Didn't the match in the morning use up all your energy?”
"A mere Jin Jiuwu isn't enough to exhaust my stamina. And I only played for five minutes in the second half, so a game of that level could only be considered a warm-up.”
Wu Yufei turned around and replied after throwing a quick stop jump shot.
"If Jin Jiuwu's players heard what you said, they would be very sad. They put in so much effort in the competition, but in your eyes, it's just a warm-up.”
Takei said in a teasing tone.
"There's nothing I can do. I'm just telling the truth.”
Wu Yufei had almost forgotten about the match in the morning. After all, there was no mission and it was not a particularly important match.
Did I get 25 or 28 points? 16…17 assists?
It was just a friendly match anyway, so there was no need to remember the data.
Swoosh!
Just as Wu Yufei was still trying to recall the game in the morning, a basketball suddenly flew towards him?
"Hmm?"
Wu Yufei reached out and caught the ball steadily. Then, with his left foot as the pivot, he turned around and jumped.
The shot was fast, the movement was neat, and the arc was beautiful. This ball was bound to go in!
Swoosh!
As expected.
"Ha…"
Wu Yufei smiled.
With his hard work, Wu Yufei's mid-range shots were getting more and more accurate.
Although his attributes didn't increase, they were just a reference. Wu Yufei wasn't a machine made of data. At least as a human, he still had his own feelings.
Looking at Wu Yufei in front of him, the corners of Takei's mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
"Yu Feijun, I want to do an exclusive interview for you in the name of the news department!”
