The time came to the day of the game, and the opponent of the second round of Xiangbei was Kakuno High School.


    However, Kakuno is not worthy of Xiangbei’s attention at all, because Kakuno’s school is about the same as last year’s Xiangbei, which means it’s a big team, it’s a one-round tour, and it’s considered that it can reach the second round this year. Kadono''s luck is good, but how can such a school resist the strong footsteps of Kanagawa''s No. 1 dark horse?


    The Lingnan High School basketball team continued to debut, paying attention to the matches of the strongest opponents they care about. Xiangyang and Hainan also came to observe the match in Xiangbei, but the latter two teams are different from all the main players and coaches in Lingnan. Only Tengzhen and Huaxing came here, while Hainan only had Amu, Ashen and Qingtian.


    It may be because there is a coach in Lingnan and it is not convenient to speak. Therefore, the three teams did not gather together as before, but chose a stand far away.


    It was just that the observation results of Xiangbei made the three teams unsatisfied, because Kakuno is too weak to play the role of a touchstone at all, and it is completely impossible to see the full strength of Xiangbei.


    In the first half, Xiangbei was still a strong lineup of the starting five tigers. Kakuno''s strength was a bit worse than Miuradai, and there was no super giant like Naito to guard the inside. As a result, the new Xiangbei was already in less than five minutes in the first half. In the opening 10 minutes, the score of the two sides was 35:2. In just ten minutes, they achieved a crazy lead of 33 points, which made the game boring.


    At the end of the first half, the Kakuno players who were almost crying by the five main players of Xiangbei finally got a chance to relax. There was no need to worry about dying directly on the basketball court, but the scores between the two sides were so cruel.


    82: 6


    At the end of the first half, he led Kakuno crazy by 76 points, and even said that Miyagi’s steals and assists, Mitsui’s three-pointers, Akagi’s blocks, Naruto’s rebounds and Rukawa’s slam dunks. All of them are more than the points scored by the Kakuno team. This kind of game has long been scored in garbage time.


    Coach Anzai also saw that Kakuno''s level is a lot worse than Miuradai, so he didn''t want his disciples to waste energy and time on such opponents. In the second half, all the starting five tigers of Xiangbei were rested, and the lineup of the game became With center Kakuda, power forward Mumu, small forward Shiozaki, shooting guard Ishii, point guard Yasuda, 180 cm tall Kakuda Satoru became the highest altitude in the Xiangbei field.


    Originally with this lineup, Kakuno would not be completely disadvantaged no matter what, just because the first half of Xiangbei''s starting five tigers were too cruel, playing so that Kakuno saw the damn red deal with a psychological shadow. As a result, Playing all the time, although the scoring ability of Xiangbei bench players can''t be as crazy as the Five Tigers, they still continue to expand the difference between the two sides.


    The Five Tigers of Xiangbei are all interested in this kind of boring game. The difference of more than 70 points is simply irreparable, so they all started to do their own things.


    The good student Akagi took this homework directly, ready to finish the homework here, and then set aside more time to practice basketball.Mitsui started doing push-ups behind the bench, and he was desperately trying to make up for the blank for more than a year.Miyagi wanted to help Caizi record the data, but Caizi was photographed aside with a fan.


    But Rukawa Feng took a walkman. After all, it was still in the early 1990s. There was no such thing as MP3 on the market. You could only listen to tapes. However, the walkman was not cheap. It shows that Rukawa Fox’s family is still Not bad.


    After all, Rukawa Feng used to ride a bicycle while sleeping, and didn''t know how many bicycles would be destroyed for a month. Of course, it wouldn''t work without a family background.


    Naruto, who was showing her affection while holding the leaf, leaned over and listened, and found that there were conversations in English.


    ''Is this fox going to America?It seems that I have to find time to talk to him.''


    Naruto is going to be a psychological counselor, and everyone in the stands has completely lost interest in the unilateral abuse and killing game.


    Xiandao even yawned lazily, saying that he was completely uninterested in this kind of competition: "After all, Kakuno''s strength is far from Xiangbei''s, and this kind of competition has no reference value at all."


    Coach Tian Gang still wears that green shirt, which seems to have been the case since the practice match with Lingnan. I don''t know if he hasn''t washed or changed, or bought a dozen shirts that are exactly the same.


    Coach Tian Gang has no interest in the Xiangbei bench players, but Xiangbei''s strength makes him sigh: "After two years of waiting, Akagi finally waited for a strong teammate, but I never thought about these people. After getting together, the strength displayed will actually be so strong. It seems that only when Xiangbei and Xiangyang compete, can we see the true strength of Xiangbei."


    Last year’s top four teams were all scattered in four regions. In Xiangbei, the team in this region is Xiangyang. From the view of Coach Tian Gang, in that region, only Xiangyang is Xiangbei’s true opponent. .


    In the game against Kakuno, in the end, Shonoku won a big score of 126:26, a full score of 100 points. This game itself is not important. After the game with Kakuno, coach Tianoka let Lingnan''s players can They went back separately, leaving the fairy road alone. At the same time, Naruto also found the fox alone.


    "Fox, go to my house for dinner tonight, I have something to tell you."


    "excuse me."


    Rukawa Fox said this at the door of Naruto’s house. Compared to Naruto, who doesn’t know how to respect his teacher, Rukawa Fox is actually more polite. Among the four tigers in Xiangbei, Rukawa is the only tiger that does not call Akagi a gorilla. one of.


    "Come in, it''s not your first time at my house, don''t be so polite."


    Naruto greeted the fox to come in and sit, and put two plates on the dining table at the same time. A stack of braised beef and a stack of boiled edamame are good dishes to go with, and Naruto took two bottles of shochu from the kitchen. , Obviously want to drink two cups with the fox.


    Ye Zi untied the apron and hung it on the hook in the kitchen: "Ruchuan, come in and sit down. Sister Caizi has something to do with me. I''ll go out first. You two have a good chat."


    Ye Zi knew that Naruto had something to talk to Rukawa Kaede, and she was not suitable to be there, so this thoughtful girl would take the initiative to leave this environment by herself. Rukawa Kaede, who only had basketball in his head, probably wouldn’t understand this, but just nodded to say hello to Ye Ye , Put down his schoolbag and sat opposite Naruto.


    Naruto poured a glass of wine for the fox, and then drank it himself.


    Rukawa Kaede didn''t know what Naruto was looking for, he just drank with Naruto first.Among the five tigers in Xiangbei, except for the good student Akagi, the other four have been drunk, but of course they will not tell each other. And the best drinker is Naruto, the second is Mitsui, and the third In Miyagi, the least drinkable is this cold-faced fox.


    The fox’s drinking volume is really bad. It’s not directly proportional to his football skills. Naruto intends to let the fox drink some alcohol. It’s good for him, but he didn’t intend to make the fox completely drunk. Seeing that the fox is already a little drunk, Naruto Put down the chopsticks and immediately began to formally ask questions.


    "Fox, do you want to play in America?"


    The look in the fox''s eyes changed obviously, but because of the influence of alcohol, the change was not obvious: "How did you know?"


    "In the second half of today''s game against Kakuno, I heard you were listening to the tape of the English dialogue, so I knew it. You said that, I guessed it right."


    Rukawa was silent for a while, but nodded and admitted: "Yes, I want to go to the basketball kingdom of America to play."


    Rukawa feels that there is nothing to say about this, because for those who play basketball, the NBA is the highest hall of basketball. The one in that place has the world''s top basketball level. It is the glory of the players to play there. It is the glory of the players to play in the United States. It is a lofty dream for countless people who love basketball.


    Naruto poured another glass of wine for Rukawa and waited for him to drink before expressing his opinions.


    "To be honest, I don''t agree with you going to the United States to play now."


    Rukawa has already revealed a hint of doubt in his drunken eyes: "Why?"


    "Because your current level is not enough, fox, do you think you are very strong?" Naruto tilted his head and looked at the fox, and immediately answered by himself before he answered, "Of course, in the eyes of many people, you It’s really strong, but this is only at the level of Japanese high school students. Do you think the physical quality of Asian yellow-colored people can be compared with American blacks?"


    Rukawa was silent and did not speak, and after seeing his glass full again, he killed it in one go.


    "Your height is indeed very good. According to the latest test, you are already close to 189 cm. When you reach adulthood, your height should be close to 2 meters. Such a height is considered long in Japan, but it is still far away in the NBA. Far from enough."


    Rukawa put down the wine glass, his eyes were extremely bright, looking at Naruto.


    "What do you think is the difference between me and American basketball?"


    Naruto did not directly answer Rukawa Kaede’s question, but said another thing: "Do you know the name of Coach Anzai in college?"


    Chapter 44-The doomed goal, Japan''s top high school student


    The fox didn''t reply to Naruto''s words, but one could still be seen in his eyes.


    ''What do you say this suddenly?''


    Naruto poured himself a glass of wine, and then he began to speak for himself: "Coach Anzai was a famous basketball coach when he was in college. At that time, he was called a white-haired ghost, and he was completely the same now. It’s different. Coach Anzai at that time was a devil coach who was so strict with his players that he could even be described as harsh. Uh... it’s a bit like coach Tianoka in Lingnan now. If the players can’t complete training according to his instructions, Will be scolded by him, and at that time coach Anxi had a very talented player named Ryuji Tani."


    Rukawa Fox didn''t care, but when Naruto said the words "talented player", the Fox immediately felt that it might have something to do with him, so he pricked his ears.


    "Gu Ze was the most fascinating genius player of coach Anxi at the time. I heard that he was 2 meters tall and was the tallest small forward in the university at the time. However, his movements were very flexible, whether it was an outside three-pointer, a breakthrough layup, or a jump shot He is also a very good player with offensive talent. Because of his high talent, Coach Anxi has stricter requirements for his training. Once Gu Ze cannot complete the designated training by Coach Anxi, he will be attacked by Coach Anxi. Scolding, and because he could not bear the endless scolding of coach Anzai and the boring basic training, Tanizawa suddenly dropped out of school one day. Without telling Coach Anzai, he left Japan and went to the United States."


    The fox waited for a while, seeing that Naruto didn''t continue speaking, he couldn''t help being curious.


    "What happened to Guze?"


    "After thinking about the situation, I will know it. I also told you that those who are over 2 meters are called long people in Japan, but in the United States, there are so many players over 2 meters. The physique of black Americans is born. Much taller than the Asian yellow race, you have seen Magic Johnson''s game, the United States will even have a point guard over 2 meters. Gu Ze''s body can only barely be regarded as first-class in the United States, but because of his basic playing Not solid enough, Gu Ze is very hard in the United States. Although he has entered the NBA to play, the team is simply a set of loose sand, let alone a team, it is just five players playing each, even if playing in the NBA, but because of neglect After the basic exercises, I couldn’t get ahead at all.


    Coach Anzai later tried his best to find Tanuzawa, but five years after Tanuzawa left Japan, Coach Anzai got the news of Tanuzawa''s death.This incident is the biggest injury of Coach Anxi, so he left the college basketball world and changed from a white-haired ghost to a white-haired Buddha."


    Originally, Mrs. Anzai should have told Rukawa about this story of Gusawa, but now it is said from Naruto’s mouth. Naruto is here as a psychological counselor for Rukawa Fox, and no one pays him. The loss is big.


    Rukawa was silent for a while after listening to Naruto''s account, and then took the initiative to pour himself a glass of wine for the first time.


    "Do you think I am still inferior to Tanizawa?"
