I'm really impressed by the work done last weeks with our U21 players and generaly youngs players, win over Pilipinas is an outstanding performance. Congrats to Yellow cake and to all managers.

After losing two games by 2 points each. I needed a big win.
Sometimes this games makes you pull your hair out. Down by two with Koma having a big game, Nakao the back SG shoots a three at the buzzer to win it. Insane stuff. I will not lie, when he shot it, I was pissed until it went in.

First time In second round since season 50. I think you have a nice team this season with some great potentials and it's logical you reach the second round. Congratulations

As I said on the season 60's topic , I make a new update on the players of the country with the evolution since May 2022

+140 TSP: 5 players (+1)
Beetween 130 and 140 TSP: 7 players (+1)
Beetween 120 and 129 TSP: 7 players (=)
Beetween 110 and 119 TSP: 10 players (-1)
Beetween 100 and 109 TSP: 19 players (+6)

So 48 Players with TSP above 100 (+7)

To follow players with 27 years or under ...

How about this....

OD 18+ =

JS 18+ =

JR 14+ =

Passing 15+ =

Rebounding 16+ =

ID/SB 28+ =

Sometimes the TSP total gets inflated with the driving and handling numbers.

Agree, Many teams train 1vs1 first and players have 120/130 TSP with very bad deffense. Takagi and Takuda were like that before 25y.

Anyway only 5 players +140 is very low. It is not easy to train players 27-30y old when you try to compete at max level. I have 2 of our 5 and It is hard to me to manage the total min, in the right position for training and try to win 2 out of 3 games every week. My player from Bosnia Gordic is +140 too, but couldnt get NT spot because 1-2 passing level too low. He would be a perfect SG for Japan, Sadly he isnt

I will answer on monday or tuesday cause this week-end is my wife's birthday so I don't have much time.

Next weeks I could add two players at the list cause Ikarashi and Nishiyama in my team have 99 now.

You can understand that I can't be too specific ...

OD 18+ = more than 10, less than 20
(Nagase, Masuko, Nagata are the best ... except Anami with 20+)

JS 18+ = more than 10, less than 20
(Matsuyama still the best ...)

JR 14+ = 5 or less
(Takata and Masuko are the best)

Passing 15+ = 5 or less
(Sasaki, Satou and Sakei are the best)

Rebounding 16+ = 5 or less
(The best is Morioka but others skills are not enough to play NT)

ID 18+ = 5 or less
(Yamato and Yanagi are the best, followed by Nagase, Takagi, Msato, Iseki and Yalmamoto)

SD 18+ = 5 or less
(Iseki is the best ...)

Some players mentioned do not have or do not yet have the level required by the NT

I know. I am trying to tell managers of U-21 players the best way to get their players NT ready.
Thanks for the info

Here are the 27 years old or Under:

27 years old:
- Hall of Famer: 0 players
- MVP: 3 players (Yamato is already in the NT Team, Kita is in the expanded roster)
- Superstar: 2 players including 1 above 100 TSP

26 years old:
- Hall of Famer: 1 players (Strauss is already in the NT Team)
- MVP: 1 player (under 100 TSP)
- Superstar: 4 players (Yamamoto and Sakei, potential NT candidate)

25 years old:
- Hall of Famer: 1 (Tomimoto is already in the NT Team)
- MVP: 2 players (under 100 TSP)
- Superstar: 3 players (Takishida, NT candidate??)

24 years old:
- Hall of Famer: 1
- MVP: 3 players (including Miyashita above 100 TSP)
- Superstar: 3 players (including Yanagi above 100 TSP)

23 years old:
- Hall of Famer: 4 players (Koma is already in the NT Team and Ikoma is in the expanded roster)
- MVP: 1 player (Fugunaga, not a NT candidate)
- Superstar: 4 players (Nakao, potential NT candidate?)
- Kamioka is above 100 TSP but have only an Franchise Player potential

22 years old:
- Hall of Famer: 4 players (Nishioka and Koshin are NT candidate in the Future)
- MVP: 3 players (Kitajima is NT candidate in the Future)
- Superstar: 4 players

You can see that there isn't many NT potential player in reserve at the moment until the 22 or 23 years old.

I don't think that I have forgotten one but you could tell it here if you have

Yellowcake, could you explain to me please in more detail the training plan you told us long time ago where you start training defense instead 1on1?
