Indeed, the recent CBA court has been incredibly lively. Take Shanxi men's basketball team as an example, their performance on the court is really eye-catching, adding a lot of exciting highlights to the entire CBA court.
Perhaps you would say that Shanxi men's basketball team has always performed well, but this year's situation is quite different. Look, they have completely transformed into a dark horse, overcoming obstacles all the way and surprisingly rushed into the top four, which has indeed brought considerable pressure to other teams.
Behind this situation, in addition to the overall progress of the team, there is also a person who has almost become the focus of everyone's heated discussion, and that person is Zhang Ning.
To talk about it, Shanxi team's development trend this season is really full of twists and turns, not smooth sailing all the way, experiencing many ups and downs, so ups and downs, it can be said to be a roller coaster.
At the beginning of the season, they were just a new army, relatively lacking in experience. Looking at the lineup, except for a few veterans, there was no big-name star that could attract much attention. However, unexpectedly, it was such a team that gradually made a name for themselves in one game after another.
Especially after the two foreign aid Goodwin and Diallo joined Shanxi team, the outside firepower of Shanxi team was significantly improved almost instantly. Their precise three-point shooting and rapid counterattacks on the court really shook the entire league.
In particular, Goodwin's three-point shooting is simply amazing, almost a nightmare for opponents. Moreover, at the critical moments of the game, he can always create excellent opportunities for his teammates with his own strength, thus leading the team to steadily stay in the top four, which also fully demonstrates his importance.
Let's talk about Zhang Ning. His performance during the game is really both angry and helpless.
He is indeed talented, capable of scoring on the offensive end, and can also provide strong support to the team. However, some of his behaviors are really unbearable.
In that instant, the fans were so excited, and the media followed suit, boiling like a pot had exploded. And the atmosphere at the scene was even more tense to the extreme, as if it would burst out completely with just a slight touch, and that kind of passionate and tense feeling filled every corner.
Subsequently, during the match against Shenzhen team, new situations occurred, causing trouble again.
This time, during the scramble, Zhang Ning made an elbow hit on Bai Haotian. This elbow directly caused Bai Haotian to fall to the ground, and in order to ensure that there was no major problem with his physical condition, Bai Haotian was sent to the hospital for detailed examination.
Bai Haotian's injury was really serious. After diagnosis, he suffered from concussion, followed by a series of heart-wrenching symptoms such as dizziness and nausea. Looking at him like this, it really makes people feel distressed from the bottom of their hearts.
After the game, Zhang Ning's response further intensified the tension at the scene.
He actually claimed that controlling emotions could only let others bully him, which really slapped the face of the media and fans. Everyone obviously felt that he had no intention of repentance at all, but rather seemed to be desperately finding excuses for his previous improper behavior.
Look, isn't this too much?
On social media platforms, netizens commented: Zhang Ning has such problems, his skills are still good, but his mind is not very clear.
He should really reflect on himself, look at others, they can control their emotions well, but why can't he do this? He needs to think deeply about the reasons.
Such performance absolutely does not conform to the attitude that basketball games should have! Basketball games need to show positive, hardworking, serious and many other good attitudes, and the current situation is obviously contrary to this, which should not be the case during basketball games.
I am quite in agreement with this sentence. Basketball games are not only a competitive activity, but also a way to showcase sportsmanship. On the basketball court, the unique sports spirit can be seen everywhere.
You can try your best and use your wisdom on the court to strive for good results. However, you must not make malicious fouls at will. You know, doing so will not only harm your opponents, but also do yourself no good. If it is serious, it will cause the game to lose its original meaning.
This reminds me of some similar punishment events that appeared in the development process of CBA.
Back then, Xu Zhonghao was suspended for six games because of malicious fouls that caused Liao Sanning to get injured. At that time, everyone was full of complaints about him, and after this incident, he did indeed become more restrained and changed a lot compared to before.
Let's take another look at Du Runwang's situation. Once his emotions lose control, he will make violent moves against his opponents, and eventually receive a five-game suspension. It can be seen from these examples that the CBA league is becoming increasingly strict in dealing with issues involving player violence.
This also shows that if Zhang Ning continues to maintain such a state, the CBA official will definitely not turn a blind eye to it. Sooner or later, the corresponding punishment will inevitably come upon him.
But to tell you the truth, Zhang Ning has just been selected into the national team, and his future was originally bright.
As a national player, he should shoulder more responsibilities and set an example. After all, his identity is special, representing the level of the country in the corresponding field, so he should be more demanding of himself in all aspects, set a benchmark for everyone with his actions, and take on more responsibilities that match his identity.
But what about the current situation?
His actions really make people question, can't help but ask, is such a national team player really qualified to represent Chinese basketball? His behavior really makes people doubt whether he can represent Chinese basketball.
As we all know, being a member of the national team is not enough to have superb skills, but also to have the correct sportsmanship and good professional ethics. The two are indispensable, only in this way, it is worthy of the identity of the national team players.
Do you think scoring is enough when playing basketball?
That's definitely not enough. You know, respecting opponents and respecting the game is the most basic quality. No matter what the situation is, you should always adhere to this attitude, only in this way, it conforms to the code of conduct and can show good demeanor.
I noticed that netizens expressed such opinions: Zhang Ning's performance really disappointed them a lot.
When he used to play basketball, his skills and talents were outstanding. In my opinion, he was very likely to become a representative figure in the CBA. Who would have thought that in the last two games, his actions were really impulsive and not calm at all.
No matter how fierce the game is, you can't do this. After all, this is a matter related to the safety of others. You can't ignore these things just because of the intensity of the game. You must always put the safety of others in an important position.
It must be admitted that the views expressed by this netizen are indeed very reasonable. Everyone is looking forward to Zhang Ning waking up, to understand that every move he makes represents not only his personal image, but more importantly, it is related to the future direction of Chinese basketball.
To tell you the truth, Shanxi team this season can be called a dark horse. Taking Zhang Ning as an example, although his performance is controversial, it must be admitted that he has played a key role in the team.
Especially in the game against Shenzhen team, several times at the critical moment, it was Zhang Ning who stood out and successfully helped the team reverse the unfavorable situation. It can be said that without Zhang Ning's outstanding performance, it is really hard to say whether Shanxi team can win that game.
This is the reason why fans love and hate him. On the one hand, they can see his talent and feel the contributions he has made to the team; on the other hand, his irrational actions always make people worry that he will make mistakes again, which may cause irreparable damage to the team.
If Zhang Ning can reflect on his behavior in the future and deeply realize the key significance of becoming a mature player, then perhaps the storm he experienced this time can be transformed into a part of his growth path.
However, if he still allows his emotions to overflow at will and continues to be trapped in the mentality of winning the game regardless of the legitimacy of the means, then it will undoubtedly cause considerable losses, whether for him personally, Shanxi men's basketball team, or even from the perspective of the entire CBA league.
I hope Zhang Ning can quickly get out of this storm. To truly understand the essence of competitive sports, clarify what sportsmanship is, and learn to control his emotions. Only in this way can he bring more wonderful games to the fans instead of controversy and harm.
The game certainly has its competitiveness, but malicious fouls must not become a common phenomenon. No matter what the situation is, always remember that the most basic respect and fair competition principles cannot be forgotten. This is the important cornerstone for the normal and healthy development of the game.
