Brothers.
It really can't be darker anymore, not at all.
Former national player Meng Duo recently appeared on the show,It was revealed that the reason why Dawang performed badly in the World Cup last year was because his children were in the ICU at that time, which made it impossible to focus on the game.
But one thing to say, the outside world was overwhelming at that time, because his performance was indeed a war criminal level disaster, and it was only aimed at his on-field performance, not to mention that no one knew the reason behind it as mentioned above.
Dawang played an average of 12.5 minutes per game in the World Cup, scoring 3.7 points, 4 rebounds and 0.7 assists, with a shooting percentage of 40% and 37.5% from the field and free throws as low as -17.5% per game, and an average of 6.5 points and 4.3 rebounds at the Asian Games, becoming the third center, behind Hu Jinqiu and Yu Jiahao.
When Adian learned that Dawang still insisted on playing for the Chinese men's basketball team even though his child was in the ICU, he sincerely admired and respected him.
And at that time, after the king ended the World Cup mission and encountered large-scale public opinion pressure, he not only went back to accompany his children, but still continued to play in the Hangzhou Asian Games.
Again, you can say Dawang Cai, but you must not question the determination and enthusiasm of people to fight for the country.
It is worth mentioning that the host of the show, Yang Yi, took Meng Duo's words and mentioned that in 2015, Zhou Peng encountered a situation similar to that of the king at that time, and made the same decision as the king.
During the 2015 Asian Championships, Zhou Peng's daughter was admitted to the ICU due to a serious illness, but he did not delay the game, and successfully led the Chinese men's basketball team back to the top of Asia as the captain under the double pressure of his family and the court.
It is said that during the fifth window of the 22 World Preliminaries, Dawang was also appointed as the captain by the then Chinese men's basketball coach Du Feng, during which he lived up to expectations and scored a total of 50 points and 21 boards in two games to lead the team to get the ticket to last year's World Cup in advance.
However, the poor performance of last year's World Cup and Asian Games forcibly wiped out all the praise that the king had saved for years of hard work in the national team.
But I believe that after seeing the deeds of "Wang Zhelin still insisted on fighting for the country even though his children were admitted to the ICU", maybe everyone's impression of him will improve from now on.
Besides, if nothing else, the 30-year-old king will not return to the national team.
This guy is completely distrusted by the Chinese men's basketball team, and now even Guo Shiqiang will not recruit him as a speaker.
Of course, another reason is that the Chinese men's basketball team is now mainly cultivating players who can play in the World Cup in 3 years and even the Olympic Games in 4 years, and the age of the king is no longer suitable.
Time is a good thing, it can't completely erase the scar, but it can gradually erase the pain.
Maybe in another two or three years, there will basically be no one to black the king anymore, and there may be people who miss him.
After all, the king is the No. 57 pick in the second round of the NBA, a two-time MVP of the CBA, and has had highlight moments when he played the national team before.
Let's put it this way, the current Yang Hansen, Yu Jiahao and Jiao Boqiao and other active centers of the Chinese men's basketball team, no one can look at the king's taillights for the time being.
Finally, I sincerely thank Dawang for his dedication to the Chinese men's basketball team in the past, and wish him to continue to have a successful career and a happy family in the future, and strive to win the first championship of his CBA career as soon as possible, so as to achieve the grand slam of honor in his career!
