Slam Dunk: Noon Sunshine

Chapter 324 We Are Strong
Life is like a box of homemade chocolates, you never know what you're going to get.

——Forrest Gump fucking.

Coach Anxi's sudden illness may be the uncertainty of life.

Akagi walked into the locker room with a gloomy face, everyone looked relaxed when they entered the room, and looked at the two Sakuraliu who were arguing with smiles on their faces!
Or looking at Sakuragi who was angry alone, and Rukawa Kaede who occasionally popped out a single word!

Crosstalk is the sense of sight...

"Ahem!" Akagi coughed a few times, attracting everyone's attention, but suddenly he didn't know how to speak.

Coach Anxi doesn't usually have a high sense of presence, but in the final analysis he is still the team's anchor, and everyone will feel at ease with him.

Especially for some players in the team, the feelings for Coach Anxi are like father and son, which makes Akagi even more unable to speak.

However, time is limited and cannot be wasted in this tangled process, Akagi forced a smile on his big face.

He walked to the tactical blackboard, picked up a pen but didn't know how to write it, and felt suspicious eyes behind him. If he was in the game at this time, everyone would keep throwing question marks at Chi Mu!
"Teacher Anxi fell ill and won't be back for the second half!" Taking a deep breath, Akagi still decided to face the reality.

As soon as Akagi finished speaking, it seemed as if the atmosphere in the locker room had dropped to freezing point in an instant.

"What are you talking about?" Mitsui suddenly grabbed Akagi's jersey excitedly, and asked with red eyes, "Are you kidding me?"

"Calm down, Mitsui!" Akagi silently grabbed Mitsui's hand and comforted him.

"Calm down? How can I be calm!" Mitsui yelled, turned around and was about to open the door of the locker room: "I'm going to see the teacher!"

"Wait a minute, Mitsui!" Akagi grabbed Mitsui's arm at this moment, preventing him from moving.

The two were at a stalemate, and Mitsui suddenly smiled and said, "Akagi, are you ordering me now as the captain?"

"There is nothing wrong with the coach's body, but the doctor advised him not to get too excited!" Chi Mu silently relayed Cai Zi's words.

Mitsui sat back on the chair in silence after listening, lowered his head and looked at the floor, not knowing what he was thinking about.

The two big brothers of the team ended their quarrel, and the others hurriedly asked Akagi.

Miyagi: "Captain, is there really nothing wrong with the coach's body?"

Akagi: "Well, but we need to rest for a while, and the teacher's wife is coming from Kanagawa, so we don't need to worry too much."

Sakuragi: "Gorilla, what shall we do next!"

Sakuragi's words represent everyone's aspirations, coach Anxi is not here, what will happen in the second half of the game?
Akagi turned to face the writing board, the fear in his heart had disappeared, replaced by a firm belief.

"Victory!" wrote these two words heavily, and then Akagi added later: "For Coach Anxi!"

It’s not that Akagi didn’t make tactical arrangements. When Coach Anzai didn’t care about things before, Shohoku’s tactics and training were basically followed by Akagi.

But the tactics at that time were also very simple, that is, hand the ball to the inside and Akagi will complete the finish!
But that's because there was nothing in Xiangbei back then, and it was supported by Akagi alone, but now Xiangbei can be regarded as a strong army!

"Let me come, pass the basketball to me as long as you run out of opportunities!" Mitsui finally accepted the fact and rekindled his fighting spirit.

"For Coach Anzai" may be just a slogan in the eyes of others, but it is the goal in Mitsui's heart!

The most important person in Mitsui's basketball career is coach Anxi, and the flame men's medals are at least half of Anxi's.

"I can do it too. As long as I work harder, Lingnan's defense will always be torn apart." The second one to speak was Little Fox.

Although in normal times, except for Sakuragi, they all maintain a high-cold attitude.Even when he heard that Mr. Anxi was ill just now, he just stared at him slightly, but at critical moments, the little fox will also turn into a killer.

After all, foxes are beasts, not vegetarians!

"The key issue now is not offense, but defense!" As the second generation, Miyagi's situation is naturally bigger.

The Xiangbei team itself is strong in offense and weak in defense. The best defensive player in the team is Akagi, but Akagi's own defensive ability is not enough to support Xiangbei's defensive system!

It's okay to let him defend a certain inside player alone, but it is an impossible task to let him defend the whole court.

Especially Lingnan's offensive trio, not to mention Wang Zhengyang and Xiandao, even Futian can show off in front of Akagi.

"I will firmly guard the paint area and not leave half a step!" Akagi finally made up his mind, just like the awakened Uozumi at the beginning, and completely made wedding dresses for his teammates.

"Sakuragi, Rukawa Kaede, you two remember to roam around more often!" Assuming the responsibility of the inside line, Akagi also entrusted the two younger brothers.

After all, the two of Sakuraryu have excellent mobility and height, so they are easy to support!
However, Akagi's decision also changed Xiangbei's defensive strategy to a certain extent, that is, to give up the defense of the outside line and focus on guarding the inside line!

Although no statistics have been made, Akagi intuitively felt that Lingnan's offense in the first half was mostly inside the three-point line. Whether it was Xiandao or Fukuda, they all used breakthroughs as the means of termination.

Three-pointers and breakthroughs are the two thighs of Lingnan. At this time, Akagi decided to focus on guarding the inside line.

Miyagi's height, Mitsui's physical strength, and Rukawa Kaede's desire to attack all allowed him to maintain the suppression of the outside line throughout the game.

Unlike Lingnan, although Ikegami has retired, Wang Zhengyang and Xiandao's perimeter defensive ability is definitely a nightmare for most teams.

Refer to Zebei of Sanno, who was taught to be a man by the two in turn, while Lingnan's inside defense is very average. Naito's talent is first-rate but inexperienced, and he is easy to be fooled.

Not to mention Fukuda, the former "Kanagawa Mobile ATM" is not much stronger even if its strength improves.

Fortunately, Wang Zhengyang and Xiandao can not only defend the outside line, but also defend the inside line well. This has led to Xiangbei's outstanding performance, but still lagging behind.

You must know that Wang Zhengyang scored less than 10 points in the first half, less than one-fifth of the total score. In other words, Wang Zhengyang is still the biggest crisis in the second half of Xiangbei.

After solving the tactics in the second half, Akagi began to discuss the rotation of personnel with everyone.

Now that he has decided to mess up the rhythm, Miyagi must re-enter the stage, relying on speed to disrupt Lingnan's lineup and bring opportunities for others!
The so-called victory in chaos is the only hope in the crisis in northern Hunan!

At this time, Xiangbei is like the protagonist in a movie. At the final climax, under heavy pressure, he embarks on the final decisive battle!

"Boom~" When everyone was discussing tactics, the door of the locker room was pushed open, and Haruko came in from the outside, looking at everyone with her reddish face.

"Everyone, Coach Anxi asked me to tell everyone!" Haruko calmed down and shouted hoarsely: "You are very strong!"
