In the hospital, Zhao Feiyang and head coach Ma Lei sat opposite each other.
The atmosphere in the ward was a bit dull. Zhao Feiyang lay there without saying a word, while Ma Lei hesitated several times, looking quite guilty.
"The results of your injury examination have come out. The doctor said that your ankle is sprained and it will take more than half a month to recover..."
"I'm sorry, I really didn't expect that to be the case..."
Ma Lei finally spoke.
What he said was not what Zhao Feiyang wanted to hear.
Zhao Feiyang almost sacrificed himself for this game.
Considering that the experience card time was not enough, he used the experience cards separately and stacked them. In this way, he could not fully support a 40-minute international game.
Fortunately, you can fish for some time, and you don't always have to play it by yourself. Otherwise, even if you experience card blessings by yourself, you will not be able to help the team play for that long.
"Okay, I have nothing to say! Now I can no longer help the national team play the game, the rest of the group stage is up to you..."
Zhao Feiyang expressed his attitude directly.
At this moment, a call came to Coach Ma Lei. Coach Ma Lei glanced at the person on the caller ID, stood up and walked to the door of the ward to carefully answer the call.
"Hello!"
"Chairman Xin, his condition is not very good... There is no way to play the remaining group matches..."
"This... is a bit difficult, I really can't beat it..."
Although coach Ma Lei's voice was very low, Zhao Feiyang knew the other person was Xin Guotao as soon as he heard it. After all, besides Xin Guotao, not many people would call Ma Lei at this time.
However, before Zhao Feiyang could express his dissatisfaction with Xin Guotao, he heard an angry voice coming from the other end of the phone, "You idiot... won't you let him take a blocking injection?"
"Fuck! Why do you need me to teach you everything? After the World Cup, you will get out of the national team..."
Xin Guotao didn't seem to know that Zhao Feiyang was there, and he probably thought Ma Lei was alone. After swearing, Ma Lei's face turned pale. He looked at Zhao Feiyang apologetically, then hurriedly opened the door and escaped from the ward to the side.
Zhao Feiyang also heard Xin Guotao's words!
If he thought this guy was a man hiding a secret behind his smile before, this time, he completely realized the hypocrisy of this guy.
With a leader like him at the helm of the Basketball Association, what kind of situation will the Basketball Association be heading for in the future?
At least, in Zhao Feiyang's view, the league promoted by such people must be impersonal and profit-oriented.
The loss that night undoubtedly became big news in China, and Zhao Feiyang's injury condition also touched the hearts of countless fans.
However, even though it has been confirmed by the hospital, the Chinese Basketball Association officials still did not immediately release the news of Zhao Feiyang's injury. They even deliberately pretended to be confused when the national team leader was interviewed, saying that they could not yet fully determine the extent of Zhao Feiyang's injury. .
Zhao Feiyang was also paying attention to the situation in the news. After seeing the attitude of the team leader, Zhao Feiyang immediately posted the latest updates on his personal social media account.
"Thank you for your concern. My injury is not as serious as I thought, but I'm afraid I will have to rest for half a month... It's a pity that I can't fight alongside my teammates, but I still look forward to a miracle." Happened, I hope my teammates will perform better..."
As soon as Zhao Feiyang's news was posted, it was immediately reprinted and reported by countless media.
The fans were also surprised. They did not expect that Zhao Feiyang was really injured, especially when he was recovering from his injury for half a month. At this time, many fans are no longer worried, but they also feel that the China Men's Basketball Team's group stage journey may be officially over!
“Can you beat the Angola team?”
"Don't think about it! The Anla team is still relatively strong. Looking at it now, I'm afraid there is no hope..."
"Just like Yao Ming's joining, Zhao Feiyang's existence caused everyone to misunderstand that the China Men's Basketball Team has become a world-class team. But in fact, the China Men's Basketball Team is only ranked 27th in the world... ..."
"Forget it if you can't beat him. I don't want Zhao Feiyang's condition to be affected by playing in international competitions. He will continue to play in the NBA..."
Fans have mixed opinions.
After the Basketball Association learned that Zhao Feiyang had taken the initiative to express his position, Xin Guotao was even more furious and called Zhao Feiyang directly in the middle of the night.
"Zhao Feiyang, what are you doing? Who told you to talk nonsense? Do you know how much impact you will have on the national team?"
It was already very unpleasant to have his sleep disturbed, but Xin Guotao still put on such a show, which undoubtedly made Zhao Fei even more angry.
"Xin Guotao, it belongs to your uncle!"
"Don't think that you are great because you are the head of the Basketball Association! Don't think that I don't know that you asked coach Ma Lei to arrange for me to play for so long...Don't think that others are stupider than you, I am willing to play for so long. I'm just worried about the national team because I'm from China... It's the same even if I join the national team and it has nothing to do with you being a moron..."
"I advise you to keep your mouth clean. I don't play in the CBA. If you want to bully me, you are not worthy... As long as you dare to continue to mess with me, I will tell you all the bad things. Look. Whoever gets out first then..."
"Remember! The national team can still thrive without you, Xin Guotao, but without me, Zhao Feiyang... I don't care. I'm afraid it's just some of you who are anxious..."
Snapped.
After talking on the phone, Zhao Feiyang was so angry that he threw the phone away.
It was so satisfying to speak out what he had been holding in his heart. Although he knew that Xin Guotao was a small-minded person, he didn't care at all. He didn't rely on playing in the domestic league to make a living, so naturally there was no need to be afraid of this and that. .
If he is capable, Xin Guotao can also prevent NBA teams from signing him!
The reason why NBA teams were afraid to sign a contract with Wang Zhizhi was mainly because Wang Zhizhi was from the Bayi team. To a certain extent, he was still a soldier, so naturally things were not that easy.
But now Zhao Feiyang is not the same. Without the worries about Wang Zhizhi, he naturally has more confidence.
Taking a step back, even if he doesn't play in the NBA, Zhao Feiyang can definitely play in the European leagues with his own strength.
If Xin Guotao had the ability to be without a ball in the world, he would probably have left the national team long ago!
After Zhao Feiyang finished scolding him, he didn't know what Xin Guotao's reaction was, but he didn't call him again. And that night, he slept very soundly, and even dreamed of his favorite teachers, Mr. Kanako Iioka and Mr. Shiro Toka, in his sleep.
For Zhao Feiyang, his journey to the group stage seems to be over, but for the China Men's Basketball Team, their real challenge has just begun.
