The group stage of the men's basketball team at the Paris Olympics is coming to an end, and the Japan team finally finished the last game of the group stage, and after losing the first two games, the third game against the Brazil men's basketball team can be described as a battle of life and death, but due to Hachimura's injury and the end of the Olympic Games, the Japan men's basketball team has lost hope of winning, and the result of this game can be imagined, and loss is inevitable.
The Japan men's basketball team almost performed a miracle in the second game against the France men's basketball team, almost upsetting the strong and home-court advantage of the France men's basketball team. Just when everyone was discussing the magic and tenacity of the Japan men's basketball team, a very unfavorable news for the Japan men's basketball team suddenly came out, that is, Hachimura suffered a calf injury and will bid farewell to the Olympics early. This was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, directly hitting the head of the Japan men's basketball team, thinking that it could leave a strong mark in the history of the Olympics, but who knew that it ended with such a result.
After a little pondering about Hachimura's injury, I can't help but be a little intriguing. The first announced injury of Hachimura was discomfort in the left calf, specifically a gastrocnemius strain, where is the gastrocnemius muscle, it is on the back of the calf. The muscle strain in this position is not a very serious injury, and if you stick to it, you will not miss the game.
However, Hachimura missed a game important for the Japan men's basketball team for this reason, for three reasons: First, the next NBA season may be more important for Hachimura personally, and he does not want to affect the journey of next season because of injury. The second is that Hachimura played for the Japan men's basketball team before, and the Japanese team was not very tolerant of him, so it was not very worthwhile for him to play with an injury. The third reason is likely to be that Hachimura has already had a conflict with the team, just imagine, Hachimura was ejected for two physical fouls in the last game, it is obvious that he played with emotions, and at this time he may have been estranged from the team. On the other hand, Hachimura is a mixed-race player, not only Japan fans do not agree with him very much, even his teammates do not seem to fully accept him, during the off-court break, teammates on the field have wonderful goals, Hachimura is also slightly cold, and the passion in the NBA is different.
After analyzing it in this way, it doesn't seem to be abrupt that Hachimura missed an important game because of a minor injury. Perhaps, Hachimura was not injured at all, and his injury may be due to infighting with the team, otherwise it is also a shame for the Japan men's basketball team. In the last game, Hachimura was fine when he left the game, but he suddenly announced his injury yesterday, and the reason for this may not be as simple as it seems.
If Hachimura really has a direct infighting with the team, then the successive feelings of loss may make him retreat, and he is likely to be reluctant to represent the Japan men's basketball team in international competitions in the future. And in the Asian-wide competition, Hachimura was originally not watchable, and in a short time, it is estimated that Hachimura will not be seen wearing the Japan men's basketball team uniform.
