Chapter 72
During this one-month truce, Ying Xiong did not eat or drink too much, nor did he relax, but instead trained harder.He is a very self-disciplined person, and he is also a person with ideals and pursuits. He will not be satisfied with just getting a low-paying contract and being a marginal figure in the bottom team of the CBA.

Training is very boring, especially training alone, no one interacts with you, no one supervises, it all depends on self-consciousness.But in order to realize the dream, unimaginable efforts must be made.

Ying Xiong and Sun Jing, one is doing crazy special training alone, and the other is nervously preparing for the college entrance examination.The paths they took were different, but they both worked hard to realize their dreams.

A month's time is short and short, and long and long.A month later, after returning to the Guangsha team, Ying Xiong's figure was obviously stronger. It can be seen that he had put in a lot of sweat during the truce.On the other hand, a few people in the team did not train systematically during the truce, and indulged themselves, and some even had a belly.

The Zhejiang Guangsha team, which has ended the truce, will challenge the Jiangsu Nangang team, which is second in the league rankings, away on December 12.

The Zhejiang Guangsha team had just ushered in two consecutive victories before the offseason. As soon as the team's morale rose, it ushered in the truce period. This campaign challenged the Jiangsu team away. Although some people in the team put forward the slogan of three consecutive victories, in the end Restricted by strength, I have no confidence in my heart.

The starting lineup of the Guangsha team is the same as when they played against the Liaoning team at home before the truce: Yin Kui, Zhang Weigang, Zhang Nan, Jia Nan, and Jiabo; while Tang Zhengdong, who just returned from Doha in the Jiangsu team, suffered a waist injury during training and will not play tonight. Did not play, another national player Hu Xuefeng started.The Jiangsu team's starting lineup is: Zhang Cheng, Hu Xuefeng, Yi Li, Meng Da, Thompson.

The first quarter of the game started, and the strength and state of the Jiangsu team at home were obviously superior. They played steadily and had an advantage in both offense and defense. They suppressed the Guangsha team and ended the first quarter with a 6-point advantage.

The second quarter started, Tang Zhengdong's hidden danger of missing the game appeared, Jiangsu team's internal strength was greatly affected, and they lost a lot of rebounds in the backcourt. The Guangsha team seized the opportunity and instantly tied the score.At the end of the half game, the Jiangsu team temporarily took the lead by 3 points.

In the third quarter, the Guangsha team had to remove him because of the 5 fouls of the foreign aid Garber. As a result, the offense had no backbone, and the opponent kept counterattacking.The situation was also controlled by the Jiangsu team, and the point difference was gradually widened.

In the last quarter of the game, halfway through the game, the Jiangsu team had widened the point difference to 21 points, and the game also entered garbage time.As usual, when garbage time came, Ying Xiong was dispatched by coach John Newman.

For Ying Xiong, a month of hard special training did not bring him trust, and his playing opportunities were still limited to garbage time, which hit him hard.But it is precisely because of this that it stimulates him to train harder, hoping that when he has the opportunity to get rotation time in the future, people who look down on him and don't trust him will be surprised.

For Ying Xiong, the worst is yet to come.After the game with the Jiangsu team, the head coach of the Guangsha team, John Newman, actually suggested that Ying Xiong should be transferred to the youth team.Fortunately, he was dissuaded by assistant coach Chen Daohong and general manager Ye Xiangyu before giving up this idea.From this small matter, it is already obvious that the American coach does not trust Ying Xiong, or even dislikes him.

But Guangsha fans really like Ying Xiong.Many fans left messages on the forum, saying that their favorite Guangsha player is Ying Xiong.Because although there are not many opportunities to see Yingxiong play, and most of the time when he plays is in garbage time.But seeing him working very hard after playing, he was extremely positive, and he didn't go through the motions because of garbage time.The fans also jointly wrote a letter to the club, asking the club to allow Yingxiong to play in regular time.Many fans also criticized the head coach of the Guangsha team, John Newman, saying that his substitutions were rigid and he was not good at employing people. Although such an active young man was sitting on the bench, he just didn't give him a chance.

Of course, the fans' complaints and suggestions will not affect the head coach's formation in the slightest.Every head coach has his own set of coaching theories, which will not be easily changed because of fans' comments.

On December 12, Christmas Eve, Zhejiang Guangsha challenged Shandong Gold away.

Before the game, Ying Xiong sent a message to Sun Jing, wishing her a happy Christmas Eve!

In this game, Guangsha team's starting list is the same as last game: Yin Kui, Zhang Weigang, Zhang Nan, Jia Nan, Jiabo; Shandong team's starting list is: Wang Gang, Sun Jie, Zhao Yonggang, Hou Bing, Hervey.

In the first three quarters of the game, the two sides played back and forth, back and forth, and the scores also took the lead alternately.But at the end of the quarter, the disadvantages of the Guangsha team's single foreign aid began to appear. Although Garber scored a game-high 36 points in this game, he still couldn't stop the joint efforts of the opponent's double foreign aid.Coupled with the fact that none of the Guangsha team's substitutes scored in double figures, the game was gradually controlled by the Shandong team.In the end, the Guangsha team was unable to recover the situation, and lost to the opponent in the away game.

Due to the close score, Guangsha team coach John Newman did not send Yingxiong to play in this game.Ying Xiong was not frustrated because he had no chance to play, and has been actively cheering for his teammates.

Back at the hotel at night, Ying Xiong turned on his phone and saw the text message Sun Jing replied: I received the blessing, thank you, Big Bear!I hope you will continue to persevere, and we will work hard together!come on! --quiet.

Seeing Sun Jing's text message reply, Ying Xiong felt warm in his heart.The bad situation in front of me is temporary after all, as long as I don't give up and continue to work hard, there will definitely be my own opportunities.

On December 12, the Zhejiang Guangsha team, which had lost two consecutive away games, returned home and will face the challenge of the visiting BJ Shougang team.The good news for the Guangsha team is that they have won the previous two home games.In this campaign against BJ Shougang at home, the Guangsha team hopes to use their strength at home to take down their opponents, end their two-game losing streak and usher in a three-game winning streak at home. The BJ Shougang team had won two consecutive victories at home before. BJ Shougang, which has not won 26 consecutive victories this season, needs a victory to boost the team's confidence.

Zhejiang Guangsha team's starting list is the same as the previous two games: Yin Kui, Zhang Weigang, Zhang Nan, Jia Nan, Jiabo; BJ's starting list is: Menwei, Chen Lei, Zhang Yunsong, Jiao Jian, Brandy.

Both sides played with a relatively small lineup, and the inside line was weak, and the game entered a state of anxiety from the beginning.But obviously the Guangsha team playing at home is in better condition, and the score has always maintained the lead.

In this game, the BJ team did not feel good on the outside, while the Guangsha team, the foreign aid Jiabo was in a hot state and scored frequently.After three quarters, the BJ Shougang team trailed the Guangsha team by 15 points.

In the final quarter, the lagging BJ Shougang team sent a lineup of double foreign aid for the final fight, but the single foreign aid Guangsha team kept leading the opponent because of Garber's crazy scoring of 38 points.When the game was still 3 minutes old, the score gap widened to 20 points.With Ying Xiong and other players at the end of the bench playing, the game has completely entered garbage time.

The Guangsha team defeated the BJ Shougang team at home, ended their two-game losing streak, and ushered in a three-game winning streak at home.Yingxiong performed well in garbage time, scoring 3 points, 6 rebounds and 3 steals.

Although the Guangsha team won this game, the team's substitute performance was still sluggish, and none of them scored in double figures.The starting lineup's playing time is too long, which has also been criticized by the outside world.

In the last game of the half-time match, Zhejiang Guangsha men's basketball team will face Shanxi Zhongyu, which is currently ranked second to last, at home at Qiantang Stadium. good time.

Before the game, Ye Xiangyu, the general manager of the Guangsha team, pointed out in an interview, "Now is not the time to consider four consecutive victories, nor is it time to consider which opponent is weak. The Guangsha men's basketball team must have a hard-working attitude towards any opponent-the strength of the Shanxi team Weak, then how did they beat Dongguan New Century at home?"

The Guangsha team's starting lineup is the same as the previous game: Yin Kui, Zhang Weigang, Zhang Nan, Jia Nan, Jiabo; the Shanxi team's starting lineup: Sun Chunlei, Liu Hao, Wang Lei, Zhang Chao, Gao De.

In this game, Zhang Nan of the Zhejiang Guangsha team showed great prowess and scored a personal high of 30 points this season, leading the team to a narrow victory over the opponent by 1 point.Ying Xiong didn't have a chance to play this game and watched the whole game from the bench.

The victory in this field allowed the Guangsha team to usher in a 4-game winning streak at home.At the end of the half game, the Guangsha team ranked third from the bottom in the league with a record of 4 wins and 11 losses.The Guangsha team lost all away games, and was dubbed the "away bug" by the fans.

In the last game of 2006, Zhejiang Guangsha team lost away to Dongguan New Century. This season, they were "double-killed" by their opponents at home and away.In the following three games against Fujian, Bayi, and Zhejiang Wanma, the Guangsha team lost to their opponents, ushering in a wave of embarrassing four-game losing streak.In this 3-game losing streak, Ying Xiong got some playing time in garbage time only in the big loss at home to the Bayi team.In the rest of the games, Ying Xiong did not get 4 minute of playing time.

After the 4-game losing streak, I remember asking Guangsha team coach John Newman whether he would adjust the rotation.John Newman said that he does not think it is necessary to adjust the current team rotation.The current team's problems are mainly due to the single foreign aid and the insufficient stability of domestic players.

Back at home, the Guangsha team relied on foreign aid Garber's 59 points and 11 rebounds to beat the visiting Yunnan team and continued to play the role of "home dragon and away worm".In this game, Ying Xiong got a chance to play in garbage time and scored 4 points and 3 rebounds.

In the next two games, the Guangsha team lost to the defending champion Guangdong team and the Shanghai team, ushering in another two-game losing streak.After losing to the Shanghai team in the away game, Guangsha head coach John Newman said in an interview after the game: "The battle was fierce, and the defensive strength was not strong enough in the first half. We only had one foreign aid, and the strength was weaker. The rebounds were not as good as the Shanghai team. The key We didn’t get any rebounds. We strengthened our defense in the second half.” When the reporter asked him if he had considered changing the rotation, the stubborn American finally let go and said that he would consider adjusting the rotation and try a new style of play.
