I just wanted to take a moment to thank the Nippon community for their support to re-elct me for another term as U21 manager to continue the process of building team.

I will post a message on the outlook for the next season in the coming days. You can also expect some posts and communications from me for the recent Draft class over the course of the next days/weeks.

Also, I'm open to any suggestions you may have on how we can manage the team better in the future.

.....Ok, back to work.

You get what you vote for.....I hope Japan is happy..
Let's see...2-3 zone tonight...??????????
Game strategy (36 competitive matches):
* Offense: Run and Gun 19, Look Inside 11, Outside Isolation 3, Motion 1, Princeton 1, Inside Isolation 1
* Defense: Man to Man 26, 3-2 Zone 5, Outside Box and One 4, 2-3 Zone 1


It seems like Man to Man might have been the better option...playing a 2-3 zone with a team that prefers the outside game is like playing Russian roulette with a gun with 4 bullets in it....
Oh well...better luck next week..

YC, I appreciate the feedback but you are too focused on the shor-term. The outcome of this game was pre-determined.............

You are sounding like the Timberwolves...always next season, and " Will get'em next time"...Ouch..So you were trying to go 0-3? And How was it pre-determined? Was it ...I'm going to lose next Monday so I will NOT scout my opponent..?
At least the NT team did some damage last night....Go Nippon, Go Swoosh!!!

No will not be trying to go 0-3. I think we match up wel against Khazakhstan.

As for our first two games against China and Hong Kong, Those teams are on a completely different level. I guess I could have played CT and set different tactics for a 10% chance to win the game, but that would have killed us for the rest of the season. I chose to instead to take a different approach that I expect will benefit us in future games.

My focus since the schedule was posted has been on the next 4 games and not the first 2. You should have understood that from the U21 blog post at the begining of the eason.
