Chapter 863: The Light of Kobe's Reconstruction
The former electronic team is regarded as the team with the best chance of sprinting for the AFC Champions League in the JBA. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the group stage, they did show their super strength.
The team topped the group and advanced to the quarterfinals.
Although they were drawn on the same team as the Iranian champions, the electronic team seems to be capable of wrestling with the opponent.
However, their management does not think so.
In order to "complete the defense of the title", the electronic team rested a large number of main forces in the first game of the quarterfinals, and only Rukawa Kaede fought hard with a group of Persian iron horsemen.
A fiasco of 29 points. It's already in the past tense.
Before the second round, the management approached Rukawa Kaede and hoped to calm Rukawa Kaede's mood by "talking heart-to-heart".
After all, if you want to complete the league defense, you can only rely on Rukawa Kaede.
However, such a conversation is already an afterthought, not only Rukawa Kaede will not buy it at all, but the fans are also very angry.
"Shh~!!!!!!!!"
The fans booed wildly at the end of the second leg, which was not to interfere with the visitors' free throws or offense, and the game certainly had no suspense, and it was still a 20-plus point defeat.
Fans booed the management's brainless moves.
Let the "double crown", which seemed to be promising, come to an abrupt end.
At the end of the game, Tehran's players celebrated, they were almost guaranteed to enter the semi-finals, and Mito Electronics, with a high start and low way to end the first AFC Champions League journey, is not so much a game than a loss, but a "fight without a fight".
Rukawa Kaede walked back to the locker room quickly, believing that he didn't expect that his first trip to the AFC Champions League would end so "shamefully".
According to the law, Rukawa Kaede participated in the press conference after the game.
"How do you feel about the team ending the AFC Champions League in this way~??"
The reporter asked.
"Hey, disappointed, lost~~ We lost the championship in all of Asia~~Hey~~"
It's rare to see Rukawa Kaede as lost and depressed as he is now, even if Rukawa Kaede has lost too many series before, but it's all a sigh of inferiority and that sense of revenge.
But this time, it's a helpless loss, and it's sad from the bottom of my heart~~
"Will the exit of the AFC Champions League affect your title defense~??"
The reporters asked again.
"I don't know, I don't know at all, there are too many unknowns in the future, you and I don't know what will happen~~"
Rukawa Kaede's brief answer revealed that he was "disappointed" and "skeptical" about the team.
"How about the injuries of a few teammates~??Will it affect the playoffs later~??"
The reporters continued to ask.
Because they don't quite understand exactly how the "injury" happens, but from the feeling of it, it seems that many times, it is difficult to explain why there are so many injuries.
"I don't know, the team doctor will deal with these problems, the season is about to enter the final stage, for me is to do my best to keep myself in the best condition, this is also within my control, the rest, not something I can control, but I still hope that they can return, the competition in the league is getting more and more fierce, we can't take the opponent lightly, defending the title is not easy~~"
Rukawa Kaede continued to answer.
"There have been media reports that you and the management currently have some disagreements and have quarrels~??"
The reporter continued to ask about the pointed topic.
"I don't know how such news came out, and I don't know who confirmed such news, a lot of news is nonsense, get used to it, it's fine, the team won't pay attention to those messy things now, focus on the game, it's the most important ~~"
Rukawa Kaede used his high emotional intelligence to answer such a question, although they really have contradictions, but Rukawa Kaede will definitely not let such a sensitive matter be made public at this moment.
Rukawa Kaede then got up and left the conference room, and left in a hurry without looking back~~
I don't know if the next time Rukawa Kaede appears in the AFC Champions League again, he will still wear the jersey of the electronic team, but one thing is certain, Rukawa Kaede will definitely return to this arena.
Over the years, Rukawa Kaede has always gotten up from where he fell, and he has never flinched.
And the tone of Rukawa Kaede's reply to reporters before also proves that he will continue to help the team defend the title.
This may reassure the management a little~~
In the blink of an eye, after the final round of the regular season, the games between the electronic team and the Rising Sun team due to the previous AFC Champions League postponement were also over, and the regular season of the 2014-2015 season was over.
The final rankings are as follows:
1. Mito Electronics is 37-5.
2. Tokyo Jaws 34-8.
3. Sendai Wanderers 32-10.
4. Kagoshima Antlers 29-13.
5. Fukuyama Flying Waves 28-14.
6. Tokyo Rising Sun 27-15.
7. Sapporo Dragons 26-16.
8. Sado Island Radiance 24-18.
9. Ninja Ninja 22-20.
10. Osaka Iron Horse 21-21.
11. Yokohama Mariners 17-25.
12. Kobe Jaguar 16-26.
13. Hokkaido Lavender 14-28.
14. Aomori Green Python 13-29.
15. Samurai Ogura 9-33.
16. Fukuoka Warbler 7-35.
The teams that qualify for the playoffs will also be announced.
Although it has experienced the turmoil of the "AFC Champions League rotation", the Mito Electronics team has won the regular season championship for two consecutive seasons, with a record of 37 wins and 5 losses, which is simply proud of the whole league.
Kaede Rukawa's old club, the 16-26 Kobe Jaguars, ended its second year of rebuilding.
Compared to last year's rebuild, this year's Jaguar team has several young players of their own choice, especially potential rookies like Tetsuri Fujima, who believe that they will have a certain improvement in these 42 regular season games.
Cheri, the "half-brother" of Kenji, averaged 8.2 points, 2.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game in the regular season, the data doesn't look very gorgeous, and the defensive end is often "blown up" by the opponent, but Cheri has at least proved that he has the ability to stand in this league, rely on his own outside projection, and "shoot his own sky"~!!
For next season, the Jaguar team is still full of hope, because not long ago, the Jaguar team selected the overseas rookie in the 2014 draft - McTianaka, this Japanese-American mixed-race, this scouts hailed as the "Sakuragi Hanamichi second generation" big forward player, ready to officially come to the Jaguar team next season to report, officially land in the Jba.
McTiannaka's style is a very good addition to the Jaguar team, with Fuji Shin Tokuri's outside line, plus McTianna's outside line, it can be said that there is a set of "beginning to take shape" lineup.
The arrival of McDanaka is arguably a very important part of the Jaguars' rebuild, and don't forget, the Jaguars also have this year's draft.
Whoever is chosen will be the light of Kobe's reconstruction.
