Introducing B.LEAGUE’s “Match Information Details”. B.LEAGUE, a men’s professional basketball league.
○This is the Kyoto I wanted to see!
Kyoto has begun.
They had been struggling up to this point, but they came here and defeated the powerful Shimane in what might be called their best game of the season.
In the early stages, they took the lead by blocking Shimane’s offense as per their game plan, and although they gradually made adjustments and were caught up, in the end they defeated them with the star power of their ace and the savior performance of the new recruit Diallo, making it a perfect match.
It’s huge that Shimane was able to play a game like this following defeating Chiba J by a wide margin and defeating Nagoya D, the leader in the West Region.
It’s the start of the second season.
○ Mr. Diallo came back and was such a savior.
Diallo’s stats
Played 27 minutes, 26 points (9/15 FG), 11 rebounds
It must have only been regarding three days since Mr. Diallo came to Japan, but he fit in so well with the team. It’s true that he played in Kyoto under HC Lana last season! Because Kyoto is a different team now!
In fact, it’s great that the conditions are perfect in the first place. Even though I’m at a level where I wouldn’t be surprised if I had jet lag.
Runs great. Good positioning. He can drive both on-ball and from the perimeter, so he can help when things get tough.
There are only elements that fit Kyoto.
○Okada’s court vision was littered with bugs.
Okada boasts the top number of assists in the league, but in this game he showed off his abilities as a playmaker at the level of a monster with 11 assists. (By the way, 21 points and 7 rebounds)
What’s amazing regarding Okada is that he can see not only “widely” but also “far away.”
He doesn’t miss big men running fast, and he’s very good at passing to the opposite side even in the half court. As a PG, being tall helps.
In today’s game, it looked like he was in the zone, but if he can continue like this he can be a great PG.
○ Is it possible that Okada and Diallo played together in a previous life?
It’s not just that we play well together or that our play styles are compatible, but that the relationship is one of trust.
“If you go to that place, you will get a pass.”
“If you pass the ball there, they’ll score it.”
A relationship of trust has already been built. It looks like it’s going to be a season where Hannary Girls won’t be able to stop laughing.
○Hanzawa’s drive is good~
Kyoto had a great offense today.
The bold drives of not only Okada and CJ but also Japanese players destroyed Shimane’s defense.
Among them, Hanzawa was the best. He scored 11 points this game, including a layup off a drive.
The team is in a difficult situation with Wright and Maeda absent, so Japanese players will need to step up.
Get up and scatter.
○ Shimane wants to improve its defense.
As expected, they attacked the paint too much in this game. I want to fix it.
Don’t worry regarding the offense because it might have been better if there wasn’t a sloppy ball under the goal. But you can hit more threes.
○Summary
“I accidentally brought my friend, who is new to basketball, to the game once morest Shimane, and I was planning on apologizing following the game,” was a comment I found interesting.
Does “Kokooka” mean “Kyoto Hannary’s, which is strange here”…?
