Comment from head coach Atsushi Ohno
Q: Even though we were ahead in the first half, it felt like we made a lot of mistakes towards the end of the game Looking back, what do you think?
A: I think we played patiently, but we made mistakes in situations where we had to be patient, such as turnovers and rebounds before the end of the game, and our opponents scored points on it go second chance point.
Since it’s CS, there’s no way things will go as usual.
I felt that I had to understand that I had to do what I could to contribute to the team, and that I didn’t have to do anything different from what I normally do.
Q: Were there times when the players were nervous or more emotional than usual?
A: I really didn’t feel that way.
We sent our players out to put everything they’ve worked hard for over the year on the court.
There were some things that we don’t usually do during the game, but I don’t know if you can call it an experience, but I think it was a good experience for the players.
Q: I think every team is preparing different measures for CS, but please tell us if you have any plans for the future.
A: I don’t think there was anything new.
More importantly, we couldn’t build our usual offense.
I think one of the reasons for this is turnovers and players moving in places they don’t normally roll, which led to our non-stop offense.
Rather than being particularly disappointed, I think it’s our fault, not the opposition’s, that we didn’t get as many shots as we wanted.
#24 Comment from Takanari Sasaki
I think there were different reasons for our loss, but I think our opponent fought with a higher intensity for the whole 40 minutes in terms of their mentality.
I knew that CS and the regular season are completely different, but I want to go into tomorrow’s game with even more desire to win than my opponent.
Q: You said you knew about CS and that the regular season would be different, but how was it different from what you thought?
A: I was nervous at first because of the intensity of each play and the atmosphere at the venue.
As the game progressed, we had to play high-intensity basketball as we’ve become accustomed to, but I think our opponent outplayed us in the game. today.
Tomorrow I want to play with high intensity for 40 minutes.
Q: What do you plan to talk to the team as a captain in CS high pressure?
A: We lost today, and if we lose tomorrow, we are about to end this season, so we want to show our determination and focus on what we have been doing as a team to fight through the 40 minutes.
Q: I think a lot of boosters are looking forward to tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. What kind of match do you want to see?
A: Even though I was watching from the bench, they cheered me on from the start.
Tomorrow, we will try to ride that momentum and play with passion from the start of the game.
