Chapter 789: Double Crown~!!

As the new JBA season is approaching day by day, all teams are in full swing to prepare for the new season. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Many players such as Akira Sendo and Kaede Rukawa have completed contract renewals, although the contract is long and short, but after all, they are the highest salary players, and they are all absolute golden signature players in this league.

There are also teams that find their favorite young players in the draft, and these young players join the league as fresh blood to maintain the good operation of the league's "metabolism~~

Who they are and what skills they have, as the following season progresses~~

But at this moment, a more shocking news came from the Asian arena, which has been quiet.

FIBA and the Asian Basketball Association have been discussing and planning for many years, and have prepared for many years of large-scale continental events, similar to the "Asian Basketball Championship" of the European Basketball Champions League

This event will become the highest honor between Asian clubs, although there are also national team-level competitions such as the Asian Games and the Asian Championships, but at the club level, this is indeed the highest honor in the whole of Asia~~

Moreover, FIBA and the Asian Basketball Association hold such an event, hoping that clubs from various countries will improve each other and train each other through competitions, enhance their strength, and improve the level of basketball in Asia as a whole.

In terms of the specific competition system, similar to the "AFC Champions League" in football, this "AFC Basketball Championship" also adopts the group stage first, followed by the knockout round, and the final round.

Because there are many countries with inconsistent league schedules, the scheduling of matches becomes an even more difficult problem, if it is concentrated in the summer, many players have to report to the national team, there is no time to play for the club, if it is spread out in the middle of the season, then the team's long journey is bound to be a big problem.

For example, the Tokyo Great White Shark went to New Delhi, India to play, and the distance back and forth may be unimaginable, so in this way, it is likely that many teams will be discouraged and lose interest in the "AFC Champions League".

This is something that FIBA and the Asian Basketball Association don't want to see, so they have also made a lot of efforts in the format~~

The second is the key participating teams, and the requirements and quotas of the participating teams are very similar to the "AFC Champions League" of football.

The AFC Champions League has a total of 01 countries and 24 teams, including teams from China, South Korea, Japan, Chinese Taipei, the Philippines, India, Singapore, Iran, Australia and New Zealand.

The specific quota allocation is:

Chinese League: 4

South Korean League: 4

Japan League: 4

Taiwan League: 2

Philippine League: 2

Indian League: 1

Iran League: 2

Australian League: 3

Singapore League: 1

New Zealand League: 1

The selection of teams is based on the order in which each league ranked top of the previous season.

24 teams from 10 countries are divided into 4 groups, each group has a total of six teams, each team will play a home-and-away round-robin group stage with five other opponents in the same group in the group stage, after 10 games, the top two teams in the group are eligible to enter the top 8 competition, it can be seen that the group stage format is very miserable, and the probability of advancing to the knockout stage is only one-third.

The top 8 matches are decided by drawing lots, which is also a home-and-away double round-robin, and the top half and the bottom half are divided at the same time, and the teams that advance to the top four will play the home-and-away round-robin again, until the final finals, which will be a tiebreaker~~

The venue for the final of the first AFC Champions League was Manila, the capital of the Philippines, which has the strongest basketball atmosphere in Southeast Asia.

The final first AFC Champions League champion, the highest honor of the first Asian club, and the strongest club in Asia, will also be born in Manila~~

24 teams, for a new championship, are about to start a new journey, facing them, will no longer be familiar with those opponents, but completely unfamiliar new opponents~~

What's more, this kind of championship cup competition, I believe that even if it is a group stage, it will be quite intense~~

All in all, it's a completely new arena and for those who have a lot of ambitions, they're going to love it.

The days of the offseason passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the temperature turned cooler, the leaves withered yellow, and the autumn season was strong, and the new season of the JBA officially began.

Before the official start of the pre-season, the teams also held a press conference and a regular press conference.

Before the press conference, there was an intra-team mobilization meeting for each team, which was when the team's management laid out or clarified the team's goals for the new season to the players.

It's like life, just like life, because I want to buy a house, because I want to have a home of my own, so I will work hard to make money every day.

While talking here, the pre-season mobilization meeting of the defending champion Mito Electronics team began.

In the lecture hall of the University, in addition to the players and coaches, I also saw many high-level figures of the Sony Group, the mustachioed man who recruited Rukawa Kaede in South Korea, and many familiar faces.

Because the electronic team has been confirmed to participate in the first AFC Champions League earlier, this meeting is more content~~

"Hey~~"

Soon, the mustache came to the podium on the stage, tried the microphone, and was ready to speak.

"Ahh

Rukawa Kaede, who was sitting in the seat here, was full of sleepy sleepy eyes, yawning, and Rukawa Kaede, who had not been seen for a long time, cut his hair short, and the sideburns on both sides were shaved cleanly, making him look much cleaner and erect.

"Ahh

"Yawning is definitely contagious, I'm afraid this afternoon will be wasted again~~"

Aikawa Hikoka, who was sitting next to Rukawa Kaede, was also hazy sleepy-eyed, and said with a yawn.

Ai Chuan also cut his hair short, although there is still a feeling of "fireworks", but it is much worse than the previous flamboyant feeling.

The hair is short, Ai Chuan's body seems to be a lot stronger, and it seems that the "big-eyed cute baby" has not practiced less in the offseason.

Even through the clothes, you can feel the hormonal explosion of muscle tension.

It seems that the big-eyed cute baby is going to become a "big-eyed muscular cute baby".

Although it will feel awkward.

However, there is no change in Takano Thunder. The nose of the plane that has not changed for thousands of years, the exaggerated amount of hairspray, and the cold expression.

"Papapa~!!!!!"

As soon as the mustache finished speaking, there were bursts of applause at the scene.

I don't know if you really heard it~~

But the next mustache's words, I believe that including Rukawa Kaede, Aikawa and Takano, will be remembered.

"The team's goal for next season is to defend the title in the domestic league, achieve two consecutive championships, and create our electronic dynasty, and secondly, we want to prove ourselves and prove the strength of Japanese basketball in the new arena and in the Asian arena, so our goal is to win the AFC Champions League~!!! We want to achieve the "double crown"~!!

The mustache looked like he was full of expressions and shouted in a high-pitched voice.

"Double ~~Double Champion~~~"

Rukawa Kaede looked at the mustache at the podium, and there was no sleepiness on his face~~
