basketball hero

Chapter 85

Ying Xiong often went to watch the home games of the Yuezhou No. [-] Squadron. He was not used to being a spectator watching the Yuezhou No. [-] Squadron play.When he came to the basketball hall of Yuezhou No. [-] Middle School, he often caused commotion among the fans.For the fans of Yuezhou No. [-] Squadron, Yingxiong is their "hero" and their "god"!As long as Yingxiong is there, it seems that no matter how passive the team is, they don't have to worry about losing in the end.Yingxiong is very popular in Yuezhou No. [-] Middle School: some fans will ask him to sign autographs, some fans will ask him to express his views on the game, and some fans will ask him about his situation in the CBA...

However, the days of Yuezhou No. [-] Squadron were not so easy.Since Ying Xiong and Zhang Rui left, the team's strength has been greatly reduced. Although they have entered the knockout round, they are facing very difficult opponents.The worse the situation of Yuezhou No. [-] Squadron was, the more the fans missed Ying Xiong and worshiped Ying Xiong even more. Some people even shouted slogans like "We need Ying Xiong!" during the game!

Of course, Ying Xiong will not really come back, he is no longer in this team.However, the reality is very cruel. The Yuezhou No. 3 Squadron, who had bumped and bumped all the way in the knockout round, finally lost to their opponents in the final, failed to defend their title, and did not usher in three consecutive championships.For a team that has already won two consecutive championships, not winning means not being successful.The fans are very disappointed, but they also know in their hearts that the team has come to this point, the players have worked very hard, but there is no way to do it due to lack of strength.

On June 6th, Sun Jing and Li Jianwu stepped into the examination room of the college entrance examination.Ying Xiong knew that he was unlikely to take the college entrance examination in his life, but even as an outsider, when he stood with those parents outside the examination room, he could feel the tension. After finishing the last test on the 7th, Ying Xiong waited for Sun Jing and Li Jianwu outside the test center.

Sun Jing and Li Jianwu who were waiting did not have any worries on their faces, which reassured him a lot.In the evening, he invited them to dinner in a restaurant.After the meal, although Li Jianwu pouted and wanted to join Ying Xiong and the others, Ying Xiong drove him away.For Ying Xiong who rarely gets along with Sun Jing, light bulbs are not very necessary at this time.

Ying Xiong took Sun Jing's little hand and walked aimlessly on the street.From time to time, passers-by looked at them, some with curiosity, some with envy, and some with jealousy.Ying Xiong is quite used to this.With a height of 2 meters, he naturally stands out from the crowd among ordinary people, and it is natural to attract people's attention.As for him and Sun Jing, the male is handsome, the female is beautiful, youthful and invincible, so they naturally attract more attention.

Sun Jing didn't like being stared at like a play, Ying Xiong understood her, so she found a small street with fewer people, and the two walked slowly holding hands.

Ying Xiong said first, "The exam is over, do you have any plans?"

Sun Jing said: "I have made an appointment with a good friend. We plan to go to Yunnan for a few days."

Ying Xiong nodded and said: "Preparing for the exam is so hard, the exam is finally over, it's good to go out and relax!"

Sun Jing asked: "Don't you ask me who this 'good friend' is?"

Ying Xiong smiled and said, "Why do you ask? If you want to say, you will naturally tell me."

Sun Jing didn't speak, and felt a sense of comfort that she had never had before.For her, Ying Xiong's "not caring" is precisely the trust and respect for her, which is very important for two people to get along.

After a long wait, the results of the college entrance examination finally came out.Sun Jing, who has always had excellent academic performance, was admitted to her ideal university—BJ University without accident, and Li Jianwu was also admitted to Yongcheng University.

For Sun Jing and Li Jianwu, they are naturally very happy to be admitted to their ideal university.As for Ying Xiong, he also got good news.

At the end of June, Ying Xiong received a call from Ye Xiangyu, the general manager of Guangsha Club.On the phone, Ye Xiangyu invited Ying Xiong to Qiantang, saying that he had something important to discuss with him.This is definitely good news for Ying Xiong. Even though it is not clear what general manager Ye Xiangyu wants to discuss with him, it should not be a bad thing.

The much-anticipated annual NBA Draft is held at Madison Square Garden in New York.In the end, center Greg Oden won the title of No. 40 pick, and super scorer Kevin Durant became the No. [-] pick.Yi Jianlian, the main insider of the Chinese national team, was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks with the sixth overall pick in the first round, and the tall point guard Sun Yue was picked by the Los Angeles Lakers with the [-]th overall pick in the second round.

For his compatriots Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue to be selected by the NBA team, Ying Xiong felt both happy and envious for them.He dreams that one day, he can be selected by an NBA team, successfully land on the American continent, and write his own story in the world's highest level basketball league.Of course, it is not easy to land in the NBA. Only by making yourself stronger can you have a chance.

Ying Xiong drove to Qiantang in a good mood, because he felt that the team would allow him to play a more important role than before.

The meeting arranged by Ye Xiangyu was in a 5-star hotel in Qiantang.In the box of the hotel, Ye Xiangyu, the general manager of the Guangsha basketball team, Zhang Xinmin, the assistant coach, two other high-level executives, and Ying Xiong, a total of 5 people sat around a round table for dinner.

The meeting between Ying Xiong and the team's general manager and high-level executives this time was not serious at least in terms of form, but the messages conveyed during the period were mostly "big news"!
Ye Xiangyu revealed to Ying Xiong that the foreign teacher John Newman will no longer coach the Guangsha team in the 2007-2008 CBA season. There is already a candidate for the successor head coach, but it is not convenient to disclose.She said that the top management of the team attaches great importance to Yingxiong and is very optimistic about his prospects.The team is very satisfied with Yingxiong's performance last season, especially in the last few games, and intends to give him an important tactical position and sufficient and stable playing time in the new season.In addition, the team decided to arrange a special trainer team Yingxiong for special training during the summer vacation.

Regarding the Guangsha team's plan, Ying Xiong was very excited and satisfied with the importance the team attached to him.He couldn't hold back his inner desire for training.He wants to continue to improve and really wants to improve his strength.

This meeting ended in a pleasant atmosphere. In the next summer vacation, Ying Xiong will also start his own "summer special training"!
Ying Xiong quickly told Sun Jing and Coach Shao Ziqiang the news.Sun Jing expressed her support for Ying Xiong's training in the summer vacation. Even if she didn't have time to accompany her, she didn't have any complaints. She also said that she had applied for QQ for him, so she could use QQ to chat in the future. Coach Shao Ziqiang expressed his approval of the Guangsha team's plan. General manager Ye Xiangyu and other team executives admire the long-term planning.He is looking forward to Ying Xiong's ability to perform better in the new season's CBA games after hard training in the offseason.

Even Ying Xiong, who loves basketball like his first love, has to admit that training is very hard and monotonous.He can understand very well at this moment why some professional players would rather play than train.Especially the one-person special training.Because the training was really hard, and he finally understood at this moment how difficult it is for a professional basketball player.What the audience sees is often the players' performance on the court with ease and leisurely strolling, but they don't know how much sweat is spent on training behind the scenes.

Ying Xiong is a person with a tough character. For this kind of high-intensity and high-density personal special training, he did not slack off shooting or muddling through. Instead, he continued to work hard to improve his quality in all aspects.He wants to become a star, enter the national team, and want to go to the NBA. He understands that if he wants to succeed, he must endure this kind of hard training.

Ying Xiong is very grateful to the Guangsha team for paying so much attention to him, arranging special personnel, arranging venues for special training for him, and giving himself a training allowance.This makes him want to repay the team's cultivation with good performance.

Time flies, and the two-month summer training is over in a blink of an eye.During this period of time, Ying Xiong has improved a lot, his body is stronger, more confident, and he has grown taller, reaching 201cm.

In September, the Guangsha team started training for the new season.The new coach revealed by the general manager Ye Xiangyu before is also ready to come out. It is the former national team coach and the coach of the Bayi Dynasty-Wang Fei.Although Ying Xiong knew that the team was going to change coaches, he had also guessed whether the coach would be a foreign coach or a local coach. What he didn't expect was that it would be such a big name as Wang Fei.This made him very excited. Being able to play under the command of a champion coach will definitely learn a lot.

Here the CBA Guangsha team started pre-season training, and here Sun Jing also went north to the capital and embarked on the journey of studying.Although the two are thousands of miles apart, they believe that each other is by their side.

The foreign aid candidates of the Guangsha team for the new season are also determined. The 208cm tall center Thompson who played for the Jiangsu team last season and the same 208cm tall and huge center Collins will both put on the Guangsha team jerseys in the new season and fight for the team in 2007. -CBA league in 2008 season.Unlike other CBA teams who choose "one inside and one outside" foreign aid combination, the Guangsha team's two foreign aids are both inside.Last season, the Guangsha team played with a single foreign aid for a long time, and the foreign aid Garber was a wing player.The weak inside line is often bullied by other teams, and both offensive and defensive ends are exploded from time to time.This season, the Guangsha team management is determined to strengthen the inside line. When it is unable to introduce excellent domestic inside players, it is enough to prove the team's determination by choosing two inside and foreign players.

The team did not bring in foreign aid for defenders, and it was also associated with the fact that General Manager Ye Xiangyu arranged for special training for him, which made Ying Xiong look forward to the role of the team he was in charge of in the new season.

What surprised Ying Xiong even more was that after coach Wang Fei took over the team for a period of training, he publicly announced in the team that Ying Xiong will serve as the team's starting point guard in the new season!
——This decision made Ying Xiong extremely excited!Happiness comes too suddenly!He originally thought that the team would make him the main rotation, and would arrange about 20 minutes of playing time, but he did not expect that coach Wang Fei would make such an important decision shortly after taking over the team!
Of course Ying Xiong knew that coach Wang Fei's decision was more or less the intention of the management.But he also knows that if coach Wang Fei feels that he is not qualified or suitable to be the team's starting point guard, it is impossible for him to get this position.
