Comment after game

Dainius Adomaitis HC
Regarding today's game, I think the level of concentration was very high. Mikawa is a really great team, and they make really great plays with special plays, for example after timeouts or at the beginning of the quarter. They have a lot of experienced players, so I'm glad we were able to play against them like we did today. As for the game plan, we wanted to move the ball well, so it was good that we were able to share the ball, and I also think it was good that the point guards controlled the game well in terms of pace. In that sense, we were able to execute the game plan quite well. The area to improve is rotation, and sharing the playing time of the players. We have five games in nine days, so we'd like to fight with an eye on the future. Thank you for all your support today.

Today, we started the game and the second half in the way we wanted as a team, so I think that has to become the identity of this team. However, I think the challenge from now on will be how we can execute what we want to do in other areas as well. I think today was a good game in which we were able to find many things like that.
（自身のプレーについては？）自分で行けると思っちゃうからこそ、判断が難しくなるときもありますが、このチームでの自分の役割は、やっぱり第一には周りが気持ちよくプレーできることを最優先だと思っていますし、チームが困ったときには点を取れるような選手になりたいっていうのが理想なので、その1対1を仕掛けるところも上位チームとの対戦では増えていくとは思っています。（98年デュオの小酒部選手の活躍については？）いいとこ、おいしいところ全部持ってってるなっていう風にも思いますし(笑)、昨年に比べて自分がやらないといけないっていう意識も増してると思うので、本当に一緒に出てるときもすごい頼もしいです。本当にどんだけうまくなるんだろうっていうわくわく感がありますね。（明日に向けては？）昨シーズンも今シーズンも上位チームとアウェーで連勝できてないので前回の三遠と対戦では1戦目勝って、明日絶対勝とうと言ってほぼ30分間ぐらいはやるべきことを遂行できてたんですけど、最後にチームとして崩れてしまいました。明日はチームとして、その次のステップに行けるように必ず勝ちたいなと思います。

We can't lose any game, but the opponent is in the same division, and I think that we were able to get this result because everyone was in the mood and had energy, especially from the beginning. It was good that everyone was able to do their job well, not their own ego. (What about the performance of 1998 duo player Tabes?) It's always like that, but I think he takes leadership as a point card, and I think he was able to communicate well with everyone, including myself, during the game, so I think that was good. When Kai attacks like that, the outside opens up, and I think Kai has the power to finish himself, so I continue to rely on him, and I hope we can pull each other along. (To the fans) The bullet trains were stopped due to the heavy rain, but I'm really happy that you came all the way to the away game like this, and your support is our strength. Please continue to support us tomorrow.

I need to be grateful that I've been able to play while keeping my health first, and I will continue to work hard without getting injured so I can extend this record even further."
