Well, but you do know that white is usually reserved for the home team, right?
Say, I was thinking that maybe Keishin's opponents in the tournament arc could be based on current or old NBA or WNBA teams. I'm not sure about Keishin, but what I do know is that though they really don't have a legit PG or PF, Saki (a natural SF) works just fine as the team's PG, while Maho (also a natural SF) has her PF play going. So I don't know any real-life team that resembles them. Maybe Miami Heat? Red uniforms for Keishin girls would work, then. But since Suzuridani has gold and orange colors on their jerseys... |

Those are some very detailed bloomers.
You can see a certain crevice and the shape of her pantsu! I watched the first season, but it wasn't really anything special to me. It felt like it was trying too hard to be moe which ending up turning me off every now and then. However, I'll still watch this season for the sake of watching cute girls doing cute things. |

Yeah, not to mention the high possibility of a second unit appearing. We have already seen Hina's sister, so it's not far-fetched that she would officially join the team, together with some more girls so they can finally enter tournament play.

If you mean Maho's buzzer beater, I don't think it's a Deus Ex Machina. It really happened, but slightly differently from the real one. In case you're asking, it's the game-winning shot by Ron Artest (now Metta World Peace) in the 2010 Western Conference Finals in the NBA.
But again, I'm not sure what you mean by that. Oh wait. Do you mean Kuroko no Basket? Oh, don't worry. Mini-basketball doesn't have a 3-pt line. That may suck for shooters (one of the members of Keishin's second unit is a pure shooter), but at least long-range shooting gives an edge against zone defense-spamming teams such as the Keishin Boys' team. |

I was just giving an example lol. I remember seeing in the anime (or was it in the novel?) that Maho/Saki/whoever that was was about to score to take the lead but failed. And after reading some otter sports manga like Eyeshield 21, I just hope that sort of things won't happen.

Saki attempted a game-winning shot during their first unofficial match against Suzuridani but failed. Well, yeah, it's kinda nice to see the hero team lose games at the buzzer after a while.
However, it should not be overdone or else the hero team would be criticized for not being able to close out games in the final moments. One way to avoid that is to give the hero team a dominating game against cannon fodder teams, but just not teams that are considered powerhouse by the plot. |
