Seiko Hashimoto denies Tokyo
the Olympics
would be canceled
On April 16, Tokyo Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games (TOCOG) chairwoman Seiko Hashimoto denied speculation that the Olympics might be canceled, saying that the committee was not considering canceling the Games. However, while acknowledging that there are many concerns in the current preparations for the Olympics, Seiko Hashimoto insisted, "We are not considering canceling the Olympics."
Seiko Hashimoto said the Tokyo Organizing Committee will continue its efforts to strengthen the implementation of anti-epidemic measures so that everyone can be assured of the safety of the Games.
Rumors of the possible cancellation of the Tokyo Olympics came from Toshihiro Niji, the chief executive of Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), who said during an appearance on a television program on the 15th, "If it is really impossible to hold the Games, we should cancel them without hesitation." As the No. 2 man in the LDP, he added, "I don't know what's the point of holding the Olympics if a virus spreads as a result of holding it." These words immediately caused an uproar. However, Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga later issued a statement saying that the Japanese government's attitude toward hosting a safe and secure Olympics had not changed.

It is worth mentioning that just on April 14, the Tokyo Olympics marked the 100-day countdown. Under such circumstances, the reason why the Tokyo Olympics is trapped by the rumors of cancellation, the first and foremost is still due to Japan's domestic resistance to the epidemic is not effective, the epidemic repeated. Japan has recently been hit by the fourth wave of the epidemic, with confirmed cases in Tokyo reaching a two-month high and those in Osaka hitting an all-time high.
Shougang's season ends with 1-point loss to Guangdong
The team fought until the last second and lost by only one point. In the first game of the quarterfinals of the CBA playoffs on the 18th, Beijing Shougang lost to the defending champions and regular season champions Guangdong by 103-104, ending the season's journey.

In fact, the Shougang team has a real chance to beat the opponent in this game - with 10.9 seconds left in the game, the Shougang team is leading by one point, and the foreign aid Mike Rui stepped on the free throw line. If the two free throws are made, the Shougang team can at least ensure that the game will not be lost in the regular time, and the pressure is completely sent to the opponent. The foreign aid, who shot more than 80% of free throws in the regular season, missed both free throws at the critical moment. Guangdong immediately launched a counterattack, with last season's Finals MVP winner Weems hitting a shot to rebound. Mike Rui finally missed a shot, and the Shougang team ended their season.
In all fairness, Shougang team's performance this season can be described as ups and downs. The first two phases, the newly joined Italian coach Pajagani did not lead the team to achieve good results, sadly dismissed; the final two phases, Yanis regained the team coaching whip, with the team on the right track. As a comparison, the Shougang team before the return of Yanis record of 16 wins and 19 losses, after the return of the record of 13 wins and 6 losses.
However, if you want to go further in the next season, the Shougang team still need to do a lot of strengthening work in the off-season. First of all, the team has almost never beaten a strong team this season, which shows that in the key ball attack phase, the Shougang team still need more "reliable" players. Secondly, the Shougang team also needs to carefully consider the choice of foreign aid in the new season, especially the guard foreign aid.
