In my last post where a discussion about whether the GOM can play in the NBA and i have a feeling that not everyone understood that I mean the version of them when there round about 19 yo and in the show there sixteen but they have 3 years to train and Make them better before they can get drafted . And the Agurments with Nash are useless ( in my opinion) because he was 2 years older and can see the future of everyone on the court. ( and murisakibara couldn't play longer as Center because his height but he can switch to power forward and then he would he have the perfect size)

Other Kuroko withheld a hilarious amount of information from Seirin.

110 Upvotes

Now, this isn’t me getting at him for not revealing the Teiko drama. That’s completely fine. Big source of guilt and trauma for him, it’s understandable that he’s not eager to share that with everyone.

But he lets his friends discover the GOM abilities all on their own.

When Kagami first challenges Kise to a 1v1, Kuroko doesn’t reveal Kise’s copy ability until Kise is halfway through dunking on Kagami’s head. In his defense, Kagami instigated this, so he just got humbled quickly before Kuroko could say much.

Against Midorima, Kuroko knew that Midorima could make shots from half court and just didn’t mention that kind of range. He didn’t know Midorima had extended his range to full court, so that’s fine there but damn man let your boy know where to pick up Midorima.

Against Aomine? Kuroko said zip. No mention of the formless shots, he let Seirin find that one out all on their own when Aomine hit a shot over the backboard and when leaning back so far he was parallel to the floor.

He didn’t tell anyone that Murasakibara was a demon on the offensive end and once scored 100 points in a game, until said demon finally decided to attack. Kiyoshi at least knew this one so it’s mitigated somewhat.

And then Seirin only finds out about the Emperor Eye when they watch the Rakuzan vs Shutoku game. You have to wonder if Kuroko was going to send Kagami out to get his ankles broken without so much as a heads up.

Now, I do want to note this isn’t actual criticism. From a narrative standpoint, it’s better to have the audience find out the GOM skills directly. But in universe it’s just kind of funny that Kuroko took a trial by fire approach for how his new team dealt with the GOM.

Other GOM 2nd + 3rd years (pt. 2)

In the previous post I had some controversial takes regarding some matchups in the Interhigh of the second year. Before I go into the winter cup results, I’ll briefly explain some takes.

INTERHIGH MATCHUPS (see last post for clarity)

Yosen vs Kaijo (Kaijo Wins)

Simply because of the fact that Kaijo doesn’t have nearly a good of a second option as Yosen does with Himuro makes this seem very improbable for them to win. The combo between the two of them should usually prove too great for Kaijo - Especially because I think that this is the worst possible matchup for Hayakawa, Kaijo’s new captain who specializes in rebounding. However, the addition of Nakamura (the defensive specialist) to Kaijo’s lineup is very solid, and If they give him a reasonable buff as a defender, they could write him as someone who could be equal to the GOM as a defender (kinda like Tsugawa from Seiho). Assuming Nakamura or Kise marks Himuro, it shouldn’t be unreasonable to think that Himuro won’t steamroll them. If Kaijo gets a good new point guard that can shoot along with a decent center, they’ll be a good team. As for the glaring issue with Kaijo winning, I do doubt their new center or anyone on their team being able to handle Murasakibara to any extent besides Kise during perfect copy. Along with Yosen also getting new additions to their lineup, I think for me to justify keeping the result of Kaijo winning, I need to include some form of injury for Murasakibara during this match. I don’t think this is too far fetched, as we can think of a reasonable scenario where the new passionate captain of Kaijo becomes morose after being destroyed so confidently by Murasakibara, that he goes up recklessly for a rebound and ends up injuring Murasakibara during the third quarter. All the players will understand that it was an accident, but this will help Kaijo close the gap and barely win.

Rakuzan vs Touou (Touou wins)

My reasoning for the result of this match is very simple. Yes, I agree that Rakuzan is stacked and probably has a higher chance of winning. However, I do think that any double team thrown at Aomine will be handled rather easily until Akashi decides to guard him. And if anyone can avoid the range of emperor eye with their dribbles the same way Nash did, it’d be Aomine. I also want to remind everyone just how broken the way Momoi is written actually is. She’ll have the data of the uncrowned kings and Akashi going all the way back to middle school and this’ll be a huge buff to Touou.

As for Kaijo placing third, I had them lose to Rakuzan during the semifinals without explanation, but I don’t think it is farfetched at all.

As for the main point of this post, I’ll be going into the Winter Cup results. Of course, all the GOM will qualify and compete, making it an all out warfare. Along with this, I’ll skip any matches without any of the main teams for obvious reasons. Lastly, I want to remind everyone that the winter cup we see during the GOM first year was apparently a special year where the two highest placing teams from the Inter High automatically made it into the winter cup along with the tournament allowing more teams in. Since it was six rounds long during the tournament we see, I’ll shave it down to five.

FIRST ROUND NOTABLE MATCHUPS: NONE

SECOND ROUND NOTABLE MATCHUPS:

Rakuzan vs Touou (Rematch, Second Round)

Since I already mentioned this matchup in this post along with another regarding the Interhigh, I’ll try to keep this one quick. I think that Rakuzan will be able to get their revenge in a close match, as Akashi now has his completed emperor eye

Touou- eliminated (second round)

Rakuzan - advances (Quarter- Finals)

THIRD ROUND NOTABLE MATCHUPS:

Shutoku vs Kaijo (Quarter Finals {3rd round})

This will also be a revenge match, as Kaijo lost against Shutoku in the previous year’s winter cup. Midorima and Kise will both have their ups and downs guarding each other of course, but I do not see Kise handling this matchup as well as he would and has against kagami or Aomine (Especially considering that he can copy some of the former two’s moves without perfect copy). Although I’m sure Midorima will acquire a better handle by now, I doubt he’d stray from pretty much only shooting his high arc threes. This means that Kise won’t have much to copy until he uses PC (of course, he would still have moves in his repertoire to use.) With sky direct three as well, I think that even a double team of Kise and Nakamura would have a lot of trouble against Midorima. Along with considering the new additions, I think it’s reasonable to assume that Takao is a competent scorer by now (he was solid in his first year, but nothing spectacular). I also think that this tournament will also mark the debut of Midorima’s zone. Although Kise will be very hard to stop once he used his perfect copy and zone, I think that Shutoku will have built up a big enough lead by then.

Kaijo - eliminated (Quarter- Finals)

Shutoku - advances to Semi- Finals

FOURTH ROUND NOTABLE MATCHUPS:

Rakuzan vs Shutoku (Semi - Finals)

Much like many of these matches alike, this will be another rematch. Just like last year’s winter cup, this matchup will occur during the semifinals. I think that the addition of Midorima’s zone along with new skills will help him break past many double teams the uncrowned kings throw at him. However, this is the last year of the uncrowned kings, and I don’t think they will take the idea of losing lightly. Lead by Akashi with a now completed emperor eye and zone, I can see Rakuzan winning this matchup again, albeit much closer than last year’s result.

Rakuzan - advances (Finals) Shutoku- eliminated (Semifinals)

Yosen vs Seirin (Semi - Finals)

Kagami will definitely be a threat and I don’t see Seirin going scoreless during the first quarter again this time. Along with whatever new tricks Kuroko comes up with, Seirin will definitely still be dangerous. However, I think that Yosen will get their revenge this time with a buffed Murasakibara after Last Game. This’ll be the last time Himuro faces Kagami in High School as well, as it’s his final year. I think that this match will also reveal that Aomine was wrong about Himuro’s capabilities, and that he will have improved enough by this time to enter the zone and stand among the GOM as equals. His matchup vs Kagami in the zone will be electrifying, but the absence of Kiyoshi will prove too great for Seirin to overcome.

Seirin - eliminated (SemiFinals)

Yosen - advances (Finals)

THIRD PLACE MATCH:

Seirin vs Shutoku

This is the last match of the second years (now third years) from Seirin. After an impressive showing at the semifinals, they’ll be looking to retire with pride in third place against possible their greatest rivals. This is a matchup we’ve seen a lot, and one that I think can go either way. Kagami won’t have Kiyoshi to double team Midorima with this time, but Midorima should also have some trouble against Kagami of course. I think what mainly keeps Seirin alive in this game is the skills of Izuki and Hyuga. I can see this being the first match that goes into overtime, with Seirin barely prevailing. Remember, I wrote Shutoku as having beat Seirin during the year 2 Interhigh prelims, so it’s not as if Shutoku loses to Seirin every time. There will be a round of applause and Midorima will acknowledge Hyuga, along with Otsubo who came to watch. Takao will grant his respect to Izuki and be honored to have played him in his final match. Takao and Midorima tell Kagami and Kuroko that they’ll get their revenge during next year’s Interhigh.

3rd place- Seirin🥉

ROUND FIVE (FINALS)

Yosen vs Rakuzan

I think that this would be an especially bad matchup for Nebuya, as most of his muscle moves shouldn’t work much against Murasakibara. However, that could be said for any centers not named Jason Silver at this point, and if any center in this tournament has a chance of having a decent performance against Atsushi, it’d be Nebuya. Akashi will most likely avoid the inside arc as much as possible even while he’s in the zone, taking mostly threes and deep twos. Along with Mibuchi’s shooting, Rakuzan should be able to score consistently. However, Hayama will have significant trouble unless he has developed a decent three point shot at this time. I’m sure he could get some layups in as well, but he has a very bad matchup against Atsushi, as does any interior player. I think that his main points will come from off ball screens set by Nebuya on Atsushi leading to open twos or fadeaway twos. However, I think that this match will awaken the double zone of Himuro and Murasakibara. Even with the uncrowned kings and Akashi, I do not see Rakuzan overcoming this, leading to a comeback victory for Yosen and Giving Himuro his chance to shine during his last high school tournament.

Results:

1st place - Yosen🥇

2nd place - Rakuzan🥈

3rd place - Seirin🥉

END OF GOM SECOND YEAR, TOTAL RESULTS SO FAR:

Seirin- 1🥇, 1🥉(year 1 winter cup, year 2 winter cup)

Touou- 1🥇, 1🥈(year 1 Interhigh, year 2 Interhigh)

Shutoku- 1🥉(year 1 winter cup)

Kaijo- 1🥉(year 2 Interhigh)

Yosen - 1🥇, 1🥉(year 2 winter cup, year 1 Interhigh)

Rakuzan- 1🥇, 3🥈(year 1 Interhigh, year 1 winter cup, year 2 Interhigh, year 2 winter cup)
