Translation of the article content into English: In the previous encounter, Shanxi team's main forward Zhang Ning became the focus of attention, but it was in a way that caught everyone's attention. During the game, Zhang Ning made an excessive move during an offensive play, accidentally grabbing his arm and knocking down Hu Jinqiu. Prior to this, Zhang Ning had already received a technical foul for some actions. After reviewing the game footage, the referee unhesitatingly called a flagrant foul on Zhang Ning, which meant he would be directly disqualified and ejected from the game. This decision not only put Zhang Ning himself in a difficult situation but also had a significant impact on Shanxi's game situation. In fact, this is not the first time Zhang Ning has committed a flagrant foul. According to statistics, after being ejected from this game, his number of flagrant fouls has reached seven times. This is quite a dangerous number. According to regulations, when a player accumulates nine flagrant fouls, they will face a severe penalty of a three-game suspension.

For Zhang Ning personally, a suspension not only means missing several encounters but also makes him the target of fan criticism. Looking deeper, the accumulation of Zhang Ning's flagrant fouls also reflects some issues in his game. It may be that his emotional control is not stable or there are deviations…

Although the team won, he himself was criticized by fans and considered to be the next Wang Xiaohui. Let's listen to how media experts evaluate this. Guangdong media: "For Zhang Ning, whether he uses this method to give himself psychological suggestions or just to fight for a breath, it's actually not beneficial for him. He is inherently kind, and playing in this way is actually against his instincts. He must know that doing so is wrong. When he was penalized and sent off, everyone could clearly see his frustration. Body language doesn't lie. Thinking that once his anger is smooth, the pressure will go away. But in fact, doing so can only take away part of the pressure, while the guilt in his subconscious will gradually accumulate, forming new pressure. This pressure will eventually explode one day. It's just a matter of time. Playing basketball is just a game, there's no need to push yourself to such an extent. There are many ways to release pressure, try a different approach, it's still…

In the final moments, he made a difficult fadeaway jump shot, allowing the team to successfully overtake the score. In the end, Shanxi narrowly defeated the defending champions 95-94, winning the battle between the strong. Zhang Ning is now very important. In the next game, Shanxi will face Shandong, who are ranked fourth in the league, but Zhang Ning cannot play due to suspension, so Shanxi is likely to lose, ending their five-game winning streak.
