Sakuragi's road to NBA superstardom

Chapter 209 Slam Dunk Scouting Report
Even though Riki Takahashi has become the new president of Osaka New Entertainment Co., Ltd., Sakuragi never wants Haruko to have anything to do with such a bad company.

Sakuragi agrees that Haruko will definitely be of great help to "This is Slam Dunk", and Haruko likes both basketball and acting, which will also be a pleasant experience for Haruko.

The head of the production department also put forward some of his own views on the production of the program, and many unique insights made Sakuragi look at him with admiration.

Osaka New Entertainment Co., Ltd. can be one of the leaders in the industry, and these pillars here are indispensable. Otherwise, only relying on Matsumoto Heiji, who only knows how to deal with power and sex, Osaka New Entertainment Co., Ltd. will never reach the level it is today.

The general direction of the program has been finalized, and Sakuragi can immediately start the filming process of the program after Hiko Aida sends him the scouting report.

Aida Yanichi's work progress was also very fast. He faxed the reports of these players to Sakuragi that night.

Hikoichi Aida sent the scouting report to the hotel where Sakuragi and Haruko were staying by fax. Sakuragi started to do business after tossing Haruko until he fell asleep from exhaustion. He looked at Hikoichi Aida's scouting report.

Hikoichi Aida organized the report very carefully. He has now sorted the 28 players according to their positions to generate a directory. Sakuragi likes this sorting. He can sort out the information of the players very clearly when he is doing the program.

Akagi Takenori reports:

Akagi Takenori is 210 cm tall and weighs 110 kg.

Graduated from Xiangbei High School. In the third year of high school, he led the team to win the national competition championship as the captain, and then entered Shenzeping University of Physical Education for further study.

A few months ago, his height soared by more than ten centimeters, and he was selected for the Japanese U19 basketball team by virtue of his impressive height advantage.

His technical characteristics are defensive insiders, and he is good at defending opponents insiders. He has a very keen sense of blocking shots and good defensive habits. Before, because of his heavy weight and slow lateral movement, his ability to assist in defense could not reach the top level.

However, after his height skyrocketed, the increase in weight did not match the growth rate of height, so Akagi Takenori is now taller but more flexible, which also makes Akagi Takenori now have the best defense ability in Japan.

Although Takenori Akagi is currently training with the Japanese U19 training team, his personal ability is enough to be selected for the Japanese national team.

Akagi Takenori is favored by every coach, mainly because of his excellent defense and rebounding awareness. Compared with his defensive ability, his offensive level is slightly mediocre.

Akagi Takenori's offensive methods are relatively scarce, and his footwork changes very little. When he is in a low position and singles, he will most likely choose the action of making a strong top, then turning around and wiping the board.

When his body is dominant, his shooting percentage at the basket is still very impressive, but if he encounters an opponent with his size and strength, his performance on the offensive end will be very struggling.

Advanced skills such as mid-range shots, turn-around hooks, and turn-back jumpers are not available at this stage of Akagi Takenori.

Even with obvious flaws, Akagi Takenori is still the most outstanding personal ability among the 28 people, because his advantages are too obvious. Akagi Takenori is a center who can support the entire team's defensive system on his own.

In the confrontation level of the program, if a player's full score is 97 points, Akagi Takenori can score [-] points. Although his offense will lower the value, his rebounds and blocks are far beyond the usual full score standard.

Hiroshi Morishi scouting report:
Hiroshi Mori, the second-year ace player of Mingpeng Industry, vowed revenge this year after losing to Shonhoku last year.

After a year of training in high school, his height has grown to 110 centimeters and his weight has reached [-] kilograms. His strength seems to be further improved than last year.

Mori Shigehiro's strength should be the strongest among the 28 people, and no one's strength can reach a level close to it. The strength advantage is also the biggest reliance of Mori Shigehiro on the basketball court.

Everyone knows he's one-sided offensively, but no team can stop him from slamming into the basket.

Mori Shigehiro's defense is also at the top level. Almost no one can maintain the final shooting rate after confronting him. Being able to avoid his block is already an acceptable result.

Hiroshi Mori scored 95 points.

Tetsuya Naito scouting report:

Naito Tetsuya, whose height and weight are almost exactly the same as Mori Shigehiro, he himself said that his strength is not inferior to Mori Shigehiro, but because Miuradai High School rarely appears in the public eye, no one knows whether Naito Tetsuya, who was born as a rugby player, can compete against Shen Shigehiro.

It is said that many scouts have gone to Miuradai High School to watch his training, and the scouts of these professional teams have developed a strong interest in him, and even some scouts from American universities have borrowed his videos.

Because his physical advantage is too obvious in the Miuradai team, his teammates will always laugh at him during training as a bull with no skills, so now he is a little obsessed with mid-to-long-range shots.

This style of playing near and far has virtually made him lose a lot of deterrence, but he still enjoys showing off his skills.

Naito Tetsu, who has never had a big platform to show himself, finally ushered in the opportunity to participate in "This is Slam Dunk". He will definitely explode with amazing strength in the competition with many star players, and he is likely to become the biggest dark horse in the show.

His score cannot be accurately predicted, with a minimum of 85 and a maximum of 95.
