Highlights
Comment from Head Coach Atsushi Ohno
Q: I think there were a lot of good things you did in the fourth quarter, such as limiting the opponent to single digits in scoring. What do you think looking back on the game?
A: It doesn’t matter who the opponent was, but I think we were able to stick to our own style for the sake of all the boosters who came all the way to Tokushima to support us and for everyone who supported us on YouTube.
We will also do our best in tomorrow’s match.
Comment from #28 Kazuya Tsuya
Today we were able to take our opponents by surprise and get into the rhythm of our attack.
Also, the starting five players on defense toned up the game, which I think was great because it allowed the players who came on later to play more aggressively.
Q: You made a lot of three-pointers, but how do you evaluate yourself?
A: Three-pointers are my forte, so I will make good decisions and go for it when the time comes.
Q: Please tell us your enthusiasm for tomorrow’s game and your message to the boosters.
A: I think the most important thing is to raise our own standards and be conscious of improving as a team, rather than worrying about the opponent, so I would like to do my best to do what the coaching staff asks of us.
For the sake of all the boosters who are coming to the venue and those watching on YouTube, I will remain vigilant and do my best to show good play, so please continue to support me.
