The decision to advance the game was quickly unanimously approved by the top management of the Basketball Association.
As a result, the CBA League, which was originally scheduled to start the new season in mid-October, was moved forward to September 16. As soon as this news came out, countless fans exclaimed.
After many unusual things happened, Chinese fans have changed from disbelief at the beginning to a state of gradual peace of mind now.
"Starting the fight so early?"
"It's a month ahead of schedule! Fortunately, none of the CBA stars participated in this year's Asian Games. Most of those who went were newcomers. Otherwise, they might not be able to bear it after the season starts..."
"As far as the CBA schedule is concerned, it's not that scary! The NBA can play 80+ games in a season. Even if our players have different physical qualities, they won't be overwhelmed after playing 38 games... ..."
"That's right! Eat less greasy food and control your physical condition more. Our players will definitely be fine..."
Fans are buzzing, and players have mixed feelings.
Some of the main players in local leagues expressed their dissatisfaction online, saying they were dissatisfied with such an advanced schedule.
"The rest time is not enough, and now you are fighting? Is it wrong?"
"It's not early enough. I think we should continue to advance. By then, if we get injured a few more, we will know the seriousness of the problem..."
"That's right. Why do we have to advance things that are good? Just because NBA players are here? How many of them are there? How many of us are there? Why should we obey the majority?"
The words of these main players were quickly discovered by fans.
The fans are of course very angry about this. They can get mad at the fans during live games, not to mention that this is only on the Internet.
"How long do you need to rest? You play 38 games in a season and you are still clamoring for a rest. I don't even know what you do on weekdays? Apart from drinking beer in front of the barbecue stall, what else can you do besides hugging young models in the club? I don't know Take good care of your body, but who can blame you for being a soft persimmon when it comes to competition?"
"Playing 38 games can lead to injuries. Just starting the game early does not mean increasing the number of games! No coach in the NBA would be willing to let you play in your situation!"
"Zhao Feiyang played in the finals and then the Asian Games, and now he is staying in the CBA... Why didn't he say a word? I didn't see anyone complaining about the tight schedule! It seems that there is a lot of conflict between people. The difference is indeed quite big..."
"There are not many NBA players, but can you compare with others? No matter how many of you there are, together you can't compare to each other's influence... This is not someone's deliberate ridicule, this is a fact. The facts before everyone’s eyes…”
No matter how the scolding war on the Internet goes on, in short, Zhao Feiyang has come to the Bayi team before the date of the new season is determined.
In order to welcome his arrival, the Bayi team specially arranged a single dormitory for Zhao Feiyang.
"This is it! Come in!"
"The conditions are simple. If you really can't get used to it, we can spend money to rent you a better place outside..."
When Wang Zhizhi personally brought Zhao Feiyang into the players' dormitory, he thought Zhao Feiyang would be dissatisfied.
After all, he was a superstar in the NBA, and he is already a super star when he returns to the CBA! Even a little bit of demand and temper are normal.
But what Wang Zhizhi didn't expect was that, looking at the room of more than 20 square meters and the decent furnishings, Zhao Feiyang not only didn't feel unhappy, but actually said nostalgically, "It's a long-lost sense of familiarity!"
"It's much better than where I lived when I was playing for the Sharks..."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhizhi couldn't help but smile.
"I remember you were still a role player at that time... To be honest, I still remember when you were drafted by the NBA team. At that time, I thought you would most likely be a flash in the pan. After all, you are almost 30 years old. To think that you actually fought, and the more you hit, the harder..."
"You shocked me so much! Especially leading the team to the finals... To be honest, only those who have been to the NBA can really understand how scary those guys are. This new generation of players also They are indeed very powerful, and it is really amazing that you can perform well under such circumstances..."
Regarding the praise from senior Wang Zhizhi, Zhao Feiyang was relatively calm. Although he is very happy to receive this kind of praise, he is no longer the role player he was before when he played a few minutes in the NBA.
"One more thing. The original captain of the Bayi team was called Wang Lang. He was the oldest man in the team in recent years. How can I put it! His skills are indeed pretty good, and he also has the ability to lead the team... ..”
"It's just that there is a big gap compared with you! The higher-ups plan to make you the captain of the team directly. They have already informed the team of this matter. Wang Lang is very popular with other players... Then you can go and play As for the team, I'm afraid..."
Zhao Feiyang understood immediately as soon as Wang Zhizhi said this.
This is the other person reminding himself!
He was originally a foreigner, but now the senior management of the Bayi Team wants him to directly lead the team. Parachuting into the team under such circumstances will undoubtedly cause some people to be dissatisfied.
Of course he has prestige, and of course his skills and reputation are indeed very powerful, but none of these are enough to make the other party surrender.
The relationship between people is very complicated. The other party will not be willing to be your little brother just because you are a superstar. On the contrary, the other party is very likely to deliberately cause trouble because of your airborne arrival, and may even exclude you.
In this way, your right to speak in the team will be gone. Even if you are a superstar, when few people are willing to listen to your instructions, you will be just a polished commander.
"OK!"
"I see!"
Zhao Feiyang's indifferent expression surprised Wang Zhizhi. He originally wanted to say a few more words, but since Zhao Feiyang had already agreed, Wang Zhizhi didn't say anything more.
After staying in the players' dormitory of the Bayi Team, Zhao Feiyang did not bother anyone, but closed the door and had a good rest for the day.
Soon, the next day comes.
The players of the Bayi team gathered on time at the training ground.
This is the first training camp before the start of the new season and the first day the players officially return to the team. When a group of young players gathered together, everyone was discussing the same issue.
"Have you heard? The team is going to send a new coach... I don't even know who it is yet..."
"80% of them were sent here on purpose for Zhao Feiyang, or simply because of Zhao Feiyang's request... This kid is awesome! He was immediately replaced by a new coach as soon as he arrived..."
"Don't talk nonsense! The change of coach was decided last season... It's just that the team made Zhao Feiyang the captain as soon as they came up. Where does this put our brother Wang?"
