Chapter 160: Rukawa Kaede, Enlightenment?!

The first round of the 2009-2010 JBA playoffs has ended with multiple sets of competitions.

In the first half, the Antlers were upset by the Hokkaido Lavender, who finished the first Black Eight Miracle since the playoffs. The Osaka Iron Horse and the Sado Island Glory Team are very intense, and the two sides are tied 2:2, and the battle for the top five is about to start.

In the second half, the Rover team was the easiest, 3:0 against the Aomori Green Python, and their will be produced in the winner of the Jaguar team and the ninja team, and the two sides fought 1:1.

In the second game, the Jaguar team not only lost at home, but also had a discordant scene after the game.

At a meeting organized by Kawaguchi, Rukawa Kaede left the table without permission, and Coach Oki was so angry that he directly said that he wanted to be banned.

After that, Kawaguchi and Sakuragi tried their best to persuade Coach Ohki to change his mind, but will Okki, who has a tough attitude, waver!?

Early the next morning, the players showed up at the training hall on time and stood in line.

"For the misconduct of some players yesterday, I hope he can conduct a deep review, this is a special period so some things need to be treated, I don't ask him to come to me to apologize, but ask him to correct his attitude and prove himself with practical actions!!"

Before the training, Coach Ohki first expressed his attitude.

"Coach~~, it looks like that guy Rukawa Kaede shouldn't be banned!!Hmph, look at your disdainful look, I'm really, I'm going to plead for you!!"

Sakuragi, who was standing in the team, breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Oki's words, but after glancing at Rukawa Kaede's sleepy face again, Sakuragi became resentful.

Although Rukawa Kaede still has that indifferent expression, he must know that the person Damu said is himself, Rukawa Kaede doesn't actually have the idea of destroying the team's atmosphere, and he doesn't want to be that cancer, but his personality is too strong and too ideaful.

Anyway, the team resumed their usual training again, and Rukawa Kaede's departure turmoil came to an end, and I don't know what kind of treatment it will have in the future, but at the moment, Rukawa Kaede is still better to play well in the next game, even if it is not to live up to Sakuragi's kindness!!

Three days later, the Jaguar team officially set off for Nagoya.

This time, there are only two results after returning, one is to usher in the five battles in the pump center, and the other is to lose to the ninja team for two consecutive years and start a vacation.

The second possibility is that the Jaguar team doesn't want to see it anyway.

In the next two games, there is no way back for the Jaguar team.

In the third game, Rukawa Kaede finally appeared on the starting list.

After the start of the game, the Jaguar team changed the slump of the previous game, especially the outside shooting rate is quite high!

After that, the ninja team changed its defensive strategy and let Hirano go to the opposite Rukawa Kaede, originally the two were in a counterpoint relationship, but because they had to defend Mitsui's high battery, the ninja team kept Hirano to defend, and let Ishii, the guard, bother Rukawa Kaede as a small forward.

Such a risky move finally paid the price under the outbreak of Rukawa Kaede.

By halftime, the Jaguars were already leading by 12 points.

In the second half, the ninja team strengthened Rukawa Kaede's defense, but Rukawa Kaede was completely crazy, even if the three people were trapped, Rukawa Kaede could still use his tank-like body to clear the way for himself.

Only then did the ninja team realize that there was really no one in their team who could compete with Rukawa Kaede!!

Coupled with the icing on the cake from Mitsui and others, the Jaguar team suppressed the ninja team throughout the game.

In the whole game, Rukawa Kaede scored 42 points, 12 of 21 two-point shots, 3 of 6 three-point shots, 9 of 10 free throws, plus 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals, and 3 blocks.

The all-round warrior in the regular season is back, and Rukawa Kaede has completed self-redemption and led the team to regain home court advantage and get match points.

Heroes and sinners, between this thought.

"Coach, I'm sorry~~"

After the game, Rukawa Kaede took the initiative to find Coach Oki and said ashamedly.

"You don't deserve to be sorry tonight. ”

Does this sound good or bad to say by Oki?

"What do you mean ,,,?"

Rukawa Kaede was also confused by Daki's words.

"If the team loses tonight, you say sorry, I may still accept it, but now that we have won, so, don't apologize~~"

Hearing this, Coach Oki should have forgiven Rukawa Kaede.

"Thank you, coach, then I'll quit first,,,"

Rukawa Kaede didn't say anything more, turned around and prepared to leave.

"By the way, Rukawa Kaede, let me remind you, getting along well with Sakuragi will not hurt you!!"

After standing and listening, Rukawa Kaede didn't respond, paused for a while, and left directly.

The Jaguar team has not yet reached the time of joy, although they have already won the match point, but the ninja team will definitely make adjustments in the next game, they will not watch their home field lose twice in a row, so for the Jaguar team, no time can be careless!

After the Jaguar team's victory over the ninja team, the Osaka Iron Horse ushered in a tie-break battle with Sado Island Kokutsu at home!!

The Iron Horse team relied on the power of the home field, led all the way, and finally defeated Guanghui in the tie-break battle, eliminated the opponent 3:2, and successfully reached the semi-finals.

The opponent of the Iron Horse team in the semi-finals is the Hokkaido Lavender team, which created the Black Eight Miracle, and no matter who advances to the finals of the two teams, it is the biggest gain for both teams!!

Therefore, the match between the Jaguar team and the ninja team became the only series in the first round that has not yet been decided.

"In this game, whether the ninja team will hold the home court and drag the game into a tie-break, or the Jaguar team will succeed in revenge, let's wait and see!!"

NHK TV reporters have already arrived on the field, and the fourth match between the two sides will be broadcast live nationwide.

"Defeat them, complete revenge, we're here to win, everyone!!"

Before the game, Coach Oki mobilized in the locker room, and it was rare for Coach Oki to speak in an impassioned voice.

"Okay~~!!!I was robbed of too much limelight by Rukawa Kaede in the last game, this one won't work, I want to prove myself!!"

Sakuragi clenched his right fist with confidence.

"Save it,,, brother, just don't be beaten by Gao Ye~~"

Miyagi poured cold water on Sakuragi on the side.

"Miyagi~~!!"

When Sakuragi heard this, he immediately chased after Miyagi, who had already fled.

The big war is coming, and the atmosphere of the Jaguar team is still relaxed!!

The home stadium of the Ninja Team was packed, and everyone shouted to cheer for the team even though they didn't wear the same T-shirts as other teams!!

After the final warm-up of the players, the game is about to begin!!

"Come on, boys, you can do it!!"

Coach Oki on the sidelines cheered for the players in his heart.

After the jump ball, the Jaguar team got the ball.

Sure enough, the ninja team's side no longer guarded Rukawa Kaede by Ishii, and took a normal alignment to mark and play, which made the ninja team suffer a big loss!!

Miyagi dribbled the ball and gave it to Akagi, who asked for the ball on the inside.

Team Jaguar is back to its usual inside-out strategy!!

Seeing that there was no help defense, Akagi was ready to single Odjede.

"Poof, poof, poof,,"

Akagi's tough back hit, Odje was a little overwhelmed.

It's already close to the basket!!

Akagi picked up the ball, chaired Ojed, and after turning, a small hook!!

Very standard inside moves, very classic center steps!!This is Akagi!!(To be continued.) )
