Playing abroad really amped Japan's OH. Few years ago, IRA vs JPN is much closer but their overall play now is leaps and beyond ahead of IRA.

The power of the men’s game is just unbelievable....it usually goes like this:
Jump serve (Boom) ...which leads to
1) Ace, or
2) Service Error, or
3) One, two, Boom ! - side out
There’s hardly any rallies
this is just not true, especially watching Japan’s defense.

Ishikawa always said to his teammates to go and play in Italy, because there they can really improve their level. Now we can see tue results

Japan is very different from most top teams but even them have a few strong servers.
Truth is if you aren't serving bombs you can't beat anyone in men's VB.

Well, serving is probably a bigger factor compaing to women's games (but even there is getting more and more important), but still one can enjoy some good rallies.

yeah i think you’re right about the serve (clearly the most important thing in modern volleyball), but we can see a lot of relatively long rallies with the level of Japan’s defense
-
good first set. Recine should return to A3
-
Ishiikawa is definitely one of the best players in the men’s division these days. Hopefully Ran will follow his steps.
-
Cuba has so much talent but they lack both coaching and setting.
-
The Cuban team really lacks communication and attention to details. Besides, the setter and the libero are not good. The libero's reception is problematic. The setting is very inconsistent.
-
Slovenia Team, Romanian Head Coach, during timeout they use Italian to communicate
-

I didn't see the whole match, but the bit I saw gave me some women's team vibes, especially the OHs struggling.
-
based on the ranking system, Slovenia (currently N.9 ) has a decent chance for qualifying for Paris Olympic as long as they keep sending A team to tournament and don't lost too many pts.
