Comments from head coach Atsushi Ohno
Q: Although there hasn’t been much time since the away match against Mikawa, it seems like the issues have been improved, what do you think?
A: It’s a mindset issue, so I don’t think it was something we should have reflected on after losing.
After the recent loss, I think the players understood how they needed to approach the game, and to that end, we had a long film session during yesterday’s practice to confirm what we needed to do. , I think he expressed it today on the court.
In that sense, I’m really satisfied with today’s match.
I think we have to continue playing games like this.
Q: Are there any improvements for Game 2?
A: There were some small mistakes, but I think the reward was not continuing to make those mistakes.
The players realized their mistakes and knew what they needed to improve on, which led to today’s good match.
The key is whether or not we can quickly improve on mistakes that could happen tomorrow, and I think it’s important to continue with this mindset.

I think today’s game was one of the best we’ve ever played, both offensively and defensively.
Especially in terms of defense, we were able to execute our game plan almost perfectly, and I’m very happy that we were able to win.
We hope to put in the same effort and perseverance tomorrow and do our best to lead to another victory.
Q: You scored 17 points, the most on the team, how do you look back?
A: As I said earlier, I think today was one of the best matches we’ve ever played, both as a team and as individuals.
I feel that my teammates created things for me, created situations where I could utilize my strengths, and put me in those positions, which led to my performance today.
#4 Comment from Coty Clark
It was a really good match.
I think we were able to win because we made solid defensive adjustments starting with our away match against Mikawa.
Q: I think there were some areas that were lacking in the away match against Mikawa, but what were the factors that allowed you to make improvements?
A: I think what’s important right now is the mental aspect rather than the physical aspect.
I think the reason I was able to make solid adjustments over the past two days was largely due to my mental aspect.
We are a team that has been completely reborn, unlike the Sanen Neo Phoenix of the past, and we are currently number one in the Central District, so every opponent enters the game with a strong desire to beat us. Most of the time they come.
So, after head coach Ohno told us that we had to adjust our mentality to that standard, we were able to take on today’s game with that mentality firmly in mind, which made us proud over the past two days. I feel like I’ve made some solid adjustments.
You can’t train your mental health just by playing games, so I think the strength of our team is that everyone prepares with a mindset from the time they practice.
