Chapter 785: The Last Defender
Tsuyoshi Akagi, Hanamichi Sakuragi, Kaede Rukawa, Ryota Miyagi, Kotoshi Mitsui, Konobu Kidu, Yohei Mito, Akira Sendo, Fuku, Hikoichi Aida, Shin'ichi Makaki, Nobunaga Kiyota, Tadashi Kami, Kenji Fujima, Toru Hanagata, and many others, they are not only basketball players, they play in professional leagues, but most importantly, they all have a common label, a label that will never change - people from Kanagawa Prefecture. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Yes, they are all from Kanagawa, from the same place, they are all "fellow countrymen".
Now, this large prefecture, which has cultivated half of the talent in Japan's basketball world, has finally had its own team, the Yokohama Marinos.
This team, which is only carrying hope and carrying a mission, is about to officially debut in the Jba next season.
Some experts and media believe that the Jba, as a maturing business alliance, should not become a "charity dinner", and that orphans and disabled children should be solved by the government and the ruling party, and should not be moved to the sports arena.
But since there is opposition, there are voices of approval: the charm of sports is that it can connect people, he can make the whole society full of positive motivation, since these orphaned and disabled children who have been "abandoned" by society are in a worrying situation, we should use the strong exposure of the stadium to bring them back into the public eye.
Judging from the current success of the Mariners in the top professional league, at this point, they are really half the battle~~
It is believed that with the arrival of next season, more and more people will pay attention to these dark corners hidden by the bright neon of modern metropolises.
They really need to see again.
And the Mariners are not just thinking about charity, in addition to preparing to enter the Jba, they are also preparing for new challenges in the new arena~~
If you use the previous lineup, the Mariners are simply at the mercy of others, but don't forget, the players who have gone out from Kanagawa are really countless~~ If they can all play for their hometown team, then the Mariners will be truly "unbeatable".
The first fish that this sailor caught was like Jiang Taigong fishing, and the wisher took the bait.
I had verbally agreed earlier, and I was also moved by the team's behavior, and immediately became a complete free agent after the end of the contract, a member of the championship of the former Flying Waves team's first championship, and the best sixth man of the former Xiangbei team.
With her dreams, with her promises to her children, and with her responsibilities, Mu Du returned to her hometown.
The Mariners also did not hesitate to sign a three-year contract of 15.5 million for this champion player, their "fellow countryman".
"This is a new starting point, sailors, let's set sail~!!"
Mu Du said with rare excitement on his social media.
Mu Du seems to have fired the first shot of this homecoming, followed by Mu Dui, it was the first person Mu Du "recruited" at that time, this summer offseason also expired his contract, the original Kobe Jaguar team's main point guard, the last pearl of the Xiangbei Five Tigers in the Jaguar team - Miyagi Ryota.
"Miyagi, it's really decided~???Don't think about it anymore~??"
Although Kawaguchi tried to keep Miyagi, Miyagi's decision to go, and the Jaguar team, which was in the rebuilding stage, actually did not show much sincerity to keep Miyagi.
Now that the Jaguar team has decided to rebuild, it is based on the principle of "completely tear down and start over", and they believe that they can find a replacement for Miyagi.
Moreover, for the current 29-year-old Miyagi, it is the best age for a guard, although the height disadvantage and lack of physical fitness make it difficult for Miyagi to become the top guard in the league, but to be a qualified starting point guard, Miyagi is still very confident~~
Besides, he still plays for his hometown, and Miyagi enjoys it.
Last season, Miyagi was the last defender of the former Xiangbei Five Tigers in Kobe, and now, Miyagi has also left the pump center in the footsteps of others.
This may be the real world, it is impossible for any team to gather all the starters of the same school under its command, maybe, it is also very short-lived, the price of business leagues, friendship, is very limited~~
After Miyagi left, maybe he couldn't see the five tigers of Xiangbei competing in the same venue, or maybe after Mitsui retired, this idea was shattered~~
The others are okay, Akagi Gangxian has basically recovered from a foot injury, next season, together with Amu, towards the championship, Sakuragi Hanamichi's Flying Waves team is the same, although it seems that the main players are a year older, but don't forget, they are still the average age of about 28,9 years old, and they are still completely playing ~~Rukawa Kaede is not to mention, as the defending champion, Rukawa Kaede's goal next season is only to complete the defense, in recent seasons, which champion has not completed the great cause of two consecutive championships, creating a dynasty, is the direction of Rukawa Kaede~~ Miyagi is the same, although the team may not be able to have a relationship with the championship, but being able to play for his hometown is something that other players can't accomplish, and this is very meaningful, the charm of basketball, there are many kinds ~~
Speaking of adherents, the former Xiangbei Five Tigers left, except for Miyagi Ryota, the team's general manager and team owner have not changed, and there is also the team's head coach, the former gold medal scorer - Coach Ohki.
In the season when Sakuragi Hanamichi came to the Jaguar team, Coach Oki took over the coaching whip, and Oki grew up with Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede and others, introduced Sakuragi to the swimming pool, helped him reduce the risk of injury, arranged a trip to Europe for Rukawa Kaede, and so on, although he failed to feed Kobe to bring a championship, but Coach Oki's coaching ability is still obvious to all~~
In fact, as early as a few seasons ago, after Sakuragi Hanamichi left the team, when the Jaguar team began to decline, many teams threw olive branches to Coach Ohki, but the stubborn Coach Ohki did not accept it, he thought that the Jaguar team still has a lot of room for improvement.
It wasn't until Rukawa Kaede's departure and Akagi's departure that Coach Oki didn't seem to be interested in the position of the Jaguar team~~
Finally at the end of this season, Coach Ohki's contract also expired at the same time, although the Jaguar team politely offered Coach Ohki a contract extension, but everyone knows that the coach is not willing to accompany a rebuilding team that is "full of unknowns".
Think about Coach Damu coming to the team eight years ago, he was still a high-spirited uncle, and now Coach Damu, the bags under his eyes are getting heavier and heavier, his hair is getting whiter and whiter, and his heart is getting heavier and heavier, and the skin on his face is not as tight as before~~
These changes are all for the Jaguar team.
Perhaps the most regrettable thing for Coach Oki is not that he failed to lead the Jaguar team to win the championship, but the most regrettable thing should be that he has not been able to sort out the relationship between Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede~~
However, seeing that the former disciples have won the championship, Coach Damu may also be relieved~~
After leaving the Jaguar team, Coach Oki did not stay at home, but went straight to the next stop, one of the most mentioned places in recent days - Tokyo.
