Chapter 34 Shibuya Sun Rock
Although the semi-finals of the county competition have long been finalized on June 20, the order of the competition is not fixed according to the ABCD area and must be determined by drawing lots.
Tuesday, June 1st…
Fujima did not come to class in the morning. Instead, he followed the assistant coach of the basketball team and the school to the County Basketball Association to draw game tickets.
According to Lin Dong's understanding of the comic plot, the winner of Group B should play Hainan in the first game of the semi-finals, Buri in the second, and Lingnan in the third.
But just like the result of the game against Xiangbei, everything in this world had already quietly changed under his influence.
In the end, the result of Fujima's draw is obviously different from that in the comics.
The first battle was against Lingnan, the second battle was against Hainan, and the third battle was against Buri.
"I'm pretty lucky!" Ito Taku said happily: "The second and third games are back-to-back. If we play Lingnan and Hainan one after another, we will be exhausted."
"It's like fighting in Buri without any effort."
"Isn't it true that we have a lot of control over Buli? Even if Lin Dongjun doesn't play, we can beat them by 50 points!"
Ye Shuiwang laughed loudly: "Haha, we substitutes finally have a chance to show their faces!"
"It doesn't matter whether you show your face or not. Your face is not as good-looking as my Lin Dong." Yuya Ishihara had just posted the schedule he made on the wall. He came over and pinched Lin Dong's butt with a smile: "Yes. Right, Lin Dongjun?"
"..." Lin Dong was too lazy to pay attention to her.
This woman went to the house twice recently. Once on the weekend, she gave Old Lin a box of tamagoyaki, saying that she made it herself, and once she gave Old Lin a scarf, saying that she knitted it herself. Although it looked like It's really a bit crooked, it doesn't look like it was bought... How can a normal person give a scarf as a gift in summer? This guy probably only knows how to knit this, right?
But it was such a simple and useless gift that made Lin Dong feel like he didn't even notice the smile that Old Lin showed every time he faced this girl.
That smile was so bright that the wrinkles that had been left on Lao Lin's face for more than 40 years were completely smoothed away by the girl's "Uncle Lin". This also indirectly caused Ishihara Yua to become more and more unrestrained towards him.
...Forget it, it's better not to provoke her less, otherwise you will definitely get pinched a second time.
He continued to talk to Fujima about the trainer.
Fujima smiled and said: "Okay, you will decide the trainer's affairs when the time comes. We all believe in your vision. Besides, you fought for this quota. No one in the team will object."
Lin Dong nodded.
Although the school board gave him the right to choose a trainer, he still had to say hello to Fujima first. After all, he was the captain of the basketball team.
And if you really find a good trainer, you don't have to use the empty method of imaginary enemies to train.
…Watching the ball on TV, is it the same feeling as holding the ball in your hands?
However, I have subscribed to Basketball Weekly for several days, and I have seen two or three familiar names, but they are all already "famous and married" types.
Either he is someone who cannot be found in a top university like Sanno Industry, or he is directly in the college league. With the qualifications of Xiangyang University, no matter how high the salary offered by the school board is, others will not take a second look. of.
Headache.
"Trainers are actually high-level sparring partners, right? Can those from abroad be allowed?" Ishihara Yua leaned over and said, "What the school board means is that as long as the person is within Japan, right?"
"You still need to have certain coaching skills and knowledge of basketball... Of course, as long as you are in Japan, it doesn't matter which country you are from." Lin Dong nodded: "Do you know such a person?"
"I don't know him, but my dad works in the international department of Hitachi. He is very familiar with the manager of Shibuya Sun Rock Club. My dad also likes basketball very much. I was influenced by him when I was a child."
Yua Ishihara said with a smile: "I heard him say before that the club opened an international stadium in Tokyo for free and held several international streetball competitions. There are many international players who live in Tokyo and cannot play. The players playing there are pretty good, so maybe you can find someone suitable."
Ishihara Yua's father is an American Arab and a basketball enthusiast. I heard that he played street basketball in the United States when he was young. Now he works in the international department of Hitachi Corporation and is involved with Shibuya Sun Rock, which the Hitachi Group has sponsored since the 1990s. It’s not surprising that the club is familiar with each other.
As for the name Ishihara Yuya, she just took her mother's surname because she was studying in Japan. She also has another English name: Amirah, which means princess in Arabic.
"Shibuya Sun Rock?" Lin Dong felt a little interesting.
The Shibuya Sun Rock and Roll Club was founded in 1935, only five years later than the establishment of the Japan Basketball Association. Its current sponsor is the Hitachi Group, which has strong capital and should be regarded as one of the earliest basketball clubs in Japan.
This is where things get interesting.
Shibuya Sun Club was a long-established and strong team in the Japanese Professional League B2. It had several training grounds in Tokyo, and there were also many amateur events to play in Japan in 2000.
At the same time, they are also one of the earliest professional basketball clubs in Japan to introduce international players, have the most mature training system, and are the first to approach internationalization. After all, they are backed by the Hitachi Group, so this club basically has no shortage of money.
And many of Asia's outstanding trainers and players in 2028 are more or less related to this team. This is precisely because they opened free courts early, introduced international players, and held games that are actually only available in the Tokyo area. Participating in the so-called 'International Streetball Competition' and these small actions...
Maybe you can actually make some discoveries.
"As long as they are qualified enough, it doesn't matter whether they are international or Japanese." Lin Dong said excitedly: "It would be better if we could compile a list and take a look."
"Don't worry!" Ishihara Yua said with a smile: "Leave this matter to me, it's going to be okay! You guys, prepare well. When we win Lingnan and Hainan and get first place in the county, I guarantee that our trainer There it is!”
………………
There were more than a dozen people crowded in the small projection hall.
A video recorder projected the image onto a white cloth in front of the room.
What appeared on the screen was not a movie that was popular at the moment, nor a popular song and dance, but a scene of the competition between Xiangyang and Shohoku.
The film has obviously been edited. The pictures are mainly concentrated in the first quarter and the last 6 seconds, and the camera is almost focused on one person, Xiangyang's No. 13.
Skilled ball skills, sharp breakthroughs, superb speed, unrivaled height, wingspan and athletic talent, as well as a broad basketball vision and always stable expression and mentality...
Sitting in front of the projection screen were Lingnan players.
Shigeichi Taoka sat on the small bench at the front. It wasn't until the last shot of Lin Dong changing his direction towards Rukawa Kaede was played that the lights in the room turned on again.
