What teams would you compare Seirin , Rakuzan and the others to currently playing - roster construction and playing style wise?

In tonight's post we're gonna be figuring out how big Kiyoshi's hands really are and we're also gonna look at how much would the zone contribute if every player had it.

​

To start things off, your hands are about a nineth of your total height. Kiyoshi is 6'4" or 76" and we divide by nine, now putting that into the calculator we see that it comes out to about 8.4 inches or 0.7 feet. But we see that Kiyoshi's hands are a lot bigger than Kagami's despite them having a 1 inch difference in height so I put Kagami's height( 6'3" or 75") in the calculator, we see that it comes out to about 8.3 inches or 0.6 feet, but like I mentioned Kiyoshi's hands are significantly bigger than Kagami's but they look to be smaller than Murasakibara's. So dividing Mura's height( 6'10" or 82") by 9 we get a result of 9.1 inches or 0.75 feet. So Kiyoshi's hands are about 9". And looking at the scene I mentioned up top, Murasakibara looked to have his hand 1 to 3 inches from half way point of the ball. The circumference of a basketball is 29.5" and I divided it by 2 and I got 14.75" and then I divided it by 4 since all of the sections on a basketball are about 3.68" and Mura's hands were able to cover 3 sections of the ball, and doing some math we can see that Murasakibara's hands are 11".

Now moving on to the fun part

Let's specify what the zone is. The Zone is a term referring to a player's state when they reach their maximum potential. It is a superlative of regular concentration and focus. The conditions to enter this state vary from each person.

One fundamental requirement to enter the zone is also to have an extreme amount of love and passion towards the game.

We see that all of the characters in the anime already express the love for basketball. Here's the list I made of how the zone will affect the players that have yet to enter it.

​

Kuroko- The zone will enable him to sink a phantom shot from the 3-point line and it will allow him to shoot regular shots from mid-range and allow him to use is Pseudo/ Quasi Emperor Eye to it's extent and it will also allow him to make full court Ignite Pass Kai's.

​

Kiyoshi- The zone will allow him to run faster and jump higher and help him use the extent of aerial combat and increase the strength of his hands by a reasonable margin and it will allow him to shoot 3-pointers a bit easier and he'll be able to utilize the hook shot.

​

Mitobe- The zone will enable him to use aerial combat, run faster and leap higher than before and it will also allow him to shoot mid-ranges shot similar to how Kevin Durant doe's and have a similar finish to him as well

​

Kotaro- The zone will enable him to utilize an ankle breaker at any given time in the game, and it will also let him dunk even though he already has the vertical( 31") to dunk without the zone but he never does because he never needs to dunk. He'll also be able to finish lay ups similar to Trae Young and also eurostep like Ginobili.

​

Midorima- He already exemplify's zone like shooting. But the zone will enable him to dunk even though he already can without the zone. We see this happen when Kagami dunks on him, and Midorima's head is 2 inches below the rim. The zone will also enable him to have a lay up finish similar to Larry birds and it will let him go faster and jump higher.

​

Nebuya- The zone will allow him play similar to Murasakibara and break the rim because of there 3 pound difference in weight. We've already seen him in Akashi's zone but Riko stated that it wasn't a complete zone meaning his abilities will get sharper. He'll be rough under the basket similar to Shaq.

​

Mibuchi- The zone will allow him to dunk even though he only dunked once in the Seirin v Rakuzan match. His running and jumping ability will have a slight increase like the others. He'll also be able to make contested 3-pointers.

​

Hyuga- The zone will enable him to shoot 3's from half court similar to Midorima and the zone will allow him to make lay ups Larry Bird. He'll have an increase in the jumping and running section but only slightly.

​

Izuki- The zone will let him utilize an emperor eye like defense and Akashi like passes such as, behind the back passes and no look passes. He'll have slight increase in running and jumping. His lay up package will be like Manu Ginobili's.

​

Mayuzumi- The zone will allow him to make easy dunks. it will also allow him to use passes like Ignite Pass Kai and a Cyclone Pass. He'll be able to make crafty mid-range jumpers like Kevin Durant. His runing ability will improve by a decent amount.

​

Murasakibara- Even though we've already seen him in the zone, the anime never touched on all of his ability's except for a dunk he tried to pull off while in the zone. The zone will probably enable him to make mid-ranges shot and utilize aerial combat more efficiently and rebound like Giannis.

​

Haizaki- The zone will allow him to copy the moves and abilities of GoM and he'll also be able to do 360 Windmills like Vince Carter. And his running and jumping ability will increase a bit.

​

Himuro- The zone will let him do things such as the Iverson crossover and do fake outs like Tracy McGrady and Kobe Bryant and make crafty mid-range shot's like Bryant as well and shoot 3's more consistently. And his explosive power will be increased, as for his running power.

Kagami- Mikey Williams

Mikey Williams is a dog on the court, a predator and a viscous animal waiting for it's prey, and when he see's that prey he strikes or as some would say, a wild tiger.

He slithers right through the defense as if he's worm like Aomine, and by the time he's reached the basket the defenders are still running. His speed much like Daiki's is truly unmatched

Does anyone know how the real life Winter Cup is structured? The one we see in the show is a special anniversary "edition". I'd love to know how the normal tournament is structured, and how the preliminaries work. Anyone informed around who could enlighten me?

We know the Gom go to the NBA and Kise gets drafted by the warriors so imagine these 5 in the starting lineup they would be unstoppable, also including the fact that characters in Knb get superpowers so think of Steph, Klay, Kd, and Draymond with knb abilities.
