Well that was the most exciting match of my BB career.
It was on TV.
It was a rivalry game.
Whoever won probably would win the conference and get HCA for the playoffs and maybe an automatic bot promotion to the JBBL.
And what an epic finish!
Kyoto Shogun vs. Shikoku Otaku 118 - 116 (39848161)
1 second to go and scores level.
Noritada Konoe tries a driving layup, guarded closely by Wenceslao Davalos.
Scored!
But it isn't over!
Bodies go flying as Wenceslao Davalos plows his way to the basket as Noritada Konoe rotates over to help defend the play.
Shot blocked!
GAME OVER
Konoe is hoisted onto the shoulders of his teammates and paraded around the arena.So can you win such a fantastic match and yet also lose?
Well you can if your two best players are both injured for two weeks. Ouch!
Others will disagree but I consider Hirofumi Sonoda the best player in the league. He leads the league in ratings, is 2nd in blocks, is 3rd in rebounds, is 5th in free throws, is 8th in points and is top 20 in steals. I think he is the best player in the league. Now out 2 weeks and probably in horrible shape for the playoffs.
But I also lost my second best player Zhang Minhua who is currently 6th in the league in rating, 12th in rebounds and last season was 5th in MVP voting in the league. Also gone for 2 weeks and will take maybe 1-2 more to recover his game shape.
The win last night should have secured me the home court for the playoffs but now I have no chance against NKRK and will struggle keeping up my PD.
Looks like I will be dipping into my reserves a little earlier than planned. Expect to see a big purchase in the next few days.
