Again, I'll leave the details of the match to the officials, but here are my impressions.
We lost…. Personally, it was my third consecutive loss…. It's so frustrating…
Thoughts and reflections on the game
While watching the match, I noticed something.
Wakasa smiles more when the scene gets rough. And his aura increases. He is a character worthy of the name "tyrant," and I thought again that I like him. He is like a warrior whose flesh and blood boils on the battlefield.
There were many good plays at key points. But more than that, I thought the spirit of the Kagawa Five Arrows was terrific.
The Kagawa Five Arrows were just strong.
According to the information I had received before the match, I had heard that the foreign players were stronger opponents, but Keijuro Matsui seemed to stand above all others.
When he went down to the bench, Matsui was so terrifying in my eyes that I wanted to pray, "Please, just stay on the bench and rest.
Even to the untrained eye, I could tell he was "awesome.
He makes free throws and 3-pointers at a high rate, he cuts to the goal as soon as he sees an opening, and he comes to contain the Gambaroos' attack with perfect timing.
……Well, to put it simply, he is a very good player. Really lol.
When I was a kid, I used to root for the Giants because of my dad, and it was a feeling of despair like when Daimajin Sasaki comes on the court in the 9th inning against Yokohama. I'm talking about the feeling you get when Matsui shows up on the court.
He made 3 of 3 3-point attempts and 2 of 2 free throws, a huge effort in the 17 or so minutes he played. It was a great performance in about 17 minutes of playing time.
Moussa Dama and Keitaro Kimura also had a strong presence.
