The regular season has come to an end.
However, defending champions Fukuyama Flying Waves are still fighting for a playoff spot.
Because of the injury season reimbursement of foreign aid Simmons, Sakuragi was also injured in the second half of the regular season, which caused the Flying Waves to stumble in the regular season.
Fortunately, Fuji really played so that the Flying Waves did not fall out of the ranks of the playoffs.
But Sakuragi is not willing to be lonely, he doesn't want to lie on the sofa all night watching his teammates fight on the field, but he can't do anything about it.
Because I have already removed the protective gear. Restorative training began, so two weeks before Sakuragi was eight weeks before he was fully recovered, he approached Coach Moriyama and asked for a comeback.
However, Coach Moriyama was not so presumptuous, and at first he did not agree with Sakuragi's comeback, but Sakuragi was determined to make a comeback.
Under all kinds of persuasion and inner monologue, Coach Moriyama finally agreed to Sakuragi's comeback request.
Because Sakuragi's willpower, his belief in basketball, is extraordinary, therefore, Sakuragi is always able to do something extraordinary.
Just like who would have thought that with such a serious back injury, Sakuragi would still be able to get up and redevote himself to basketball.
As long as Sakuragi thinks about it, he will do everything he can to do it, no matter what.
With three rounds left until the end of the regular season, the Waves only need two wins to secure a playoff spot.
Of course, no team hates to lose, and if they can win all three games, the Waves should be able to challenge for a better position, and no team should want to meet Kagoshima Antlers in the first round of the playoffs.
In the 32nd round, the Flying Waves will play at home against the Sendai Wanderers, and it is unknown whether Sakuragi will really usher in his comeback debut at that time.
As of the 32nd round, the Rover has a record of 12 wins and 19 losses, and has long missed the playoffs, and the rest of the team's games are basically left to Coach Shoji to practice.
Since Sendo left the team, the Rover has struggled more and more, and the team was able to teeter on the edge of the playoffs with a still sweet schedule.
But as the season progressed, the problem that the Rover did not have an absolute leader, or an absolute superstar, was exposed, and many anxious games, the Rover was always unable to win in the end.
Such a defeat not only caused the team's record to decline, but also seriously hit the team's morale.
Even Coach Shoji would be difficult to bring such a team into the playoffs.
However, to the relief of the wanderers, Xiandao has slowly gained a foothold in the Pacers.
Even after the previous defeat of the Suns, Xiandao's confidence was bursting, not only did the playing time increase significantly, but the data was also bullish.
From averaging 5.3 minutes per game, contributing 4.1 points, 1.1 rebounds, and 1.2 assists, to now averaging 20.6 minutes, 12.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game.
Not only did the Pacers finally find their place, but they also managed to gain a foothold in the NBA.
Closer to home, the Fukuyama Flying Waves match at home against the Sendai Rovers will start soon.
This is also the last home game of the regular season of the Flying Waves this season, and it is also the most critical game in the playoff card battle stage, so the attendance rate of the Green Coast Arena has come to a "full" state.
Looking at the long queue of fans waiting to enter the stadium outside the stadium, it was as if I had returned to last year's finals.
Perhaps Fukuyama fans, believing that their team, can come to the final stage again this season.
Just like last season, who would have thought that the Flying Waves team, which had just been formed, would get the "Golden Basket"
In the list of players given by the Flying Waves, Sakuragi Hanamichi's name is prominently listed.
Although Coach Moriyama kept saying that he did not agree to Sakuragi's official comeback at that time, it seems that it was just a kind word.
However, Sakuragi did not appear in the team's starting lineup.
When Sakuragi will be able to complete his comeback appearance has become the highlight of this game.
"Ah~!!My Sakuragi is there~!!Sakuragi~!!Sakuragi~!!"
How could there be no "confession woman" Natsume in the stands.
Although the previous nursing student was not elected, knowing that Sakuragi was about to make a comeback, Natsume came to the Green Coast Arena again.
You must know that during the previous period when Sakuragi was injured, Natsume had never been to the scene to watch the Flying Waves game, not even on TV.
So it's not so much that Natsume came to see the game, but that he came to see Sakuragi.
But Sakuragi didn't respond, so I guess I didn't hear it.
Seeing his brother - Mito Yohei, Sakuragi must have a good chat before the game~!!
During the busy season, this is the only opportunity to catch up with old friends and chat.
Looking at the two of them smiling, they were really happy to chat~!!
"Hmph, what the hell does this girl think, it's really incredible that she will be obsessed with a guy like Sakuragi~!!"
It was Slyer, who looked at Natsume and sighed.
After the old days, it's time for the official competition.
Here the rover's main center Taro Sansho was absent from the game because of elbow soreness, standing on the sidelines in a gray suit, looking calm, anyway, the team is currently on vacation after playing three games, and the mood is relaxed.
Mikami's absence can be said to be a big gift to the Flying Waves team aiming for the playoffs.
"Yay~!!!"
With the tsunami-like cheers of the audience, Watanabe Takasato jumped high and touched the ball first.
The Waves got the first wave of possession of the game.
Fujima dribbled to the half-court.
Maybe it was the first goal, Nakasawa Nagaken, who was defending Fujima, didn't follow too closely, and seemed to be still communicating with his teammates behind.
But Fuji Zhen won't wait for you to finish communicating, and will directly speed up Nakazawa.
After coming to the inner line, because there is no big barrier of Mikami, Fuji Zhen can be more comfortable.
"Brush~!!"
A smooth toss with hollow in.
Fujima quickly got into the game, and it seemed like the state of the playoffs.
"In this year's regular season, Fuji Zhen is the best in recent seasons in terms of playing time and performance, this is not to say that Fuji Zhen has improved or how, just that when the team needs Fuji Zhen the most, he can always stand up, in the second half of the season, if there is no Fuji Zhen playing, I'm afraid we have already fallen out of the ranks of the playoffs~~~!!"
Coach Moriyama looked at Fujima, who was returning to defense, and sighed.
"But if you continue to play like this, is it really okay to play the playoffs~ !?? The storage of physical energy is Fujima's most serious problem, if the regular season is too strong, it will leave hidden dangers, and our road to defending the title is still quite difficult~!!"
Moriyama also pointed out the team's difficulties.
However, in terms of the current form of the team, it is still quite good.
Because they are the defending champions after all, and they are the team that has stood at the top of the league, they have never been less demanding of themselves.
Despite the difficulties, everyone in the team did not give up, they always fought because they had the "dignity of the defending champion". (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
