“Whatever does not kill us will make us stronger!” This sentence comes from the German philosopher and poet Nietzsche, and last night Zhejiang star Wu Qian also posted on Weibo after the game Beau posted this.
When the team went through a night of fierce battles and fell behind by 26 points at most, but the team finally completed a stunning comeback and won the victory with a buzzer-beater, we can understand why Wu Qian quoted such a sentence. talk.
And when we understand that among these many difficulties, it is not just caused by the opponent. Some of the referee's still questionable penalties have also made Zhejiang quite passive, and these factors must also be included in Wu Qian's decision. Among the "whatever doesn't kill us".
At about 8 minutes and 20 seconds into the third quarter, the Zhejiang Golden Bulls trailed Shanghai by 10 points 59-69. At this time, Zhejiang made a fast break. After the ball was handed over, Wu Qian hit the basket. Pass to teammate Landsberg.
The latter missed a layup, but in order to avoid Shanghai center Zongzan's block, he lost his balance and fell to the ground. But when the whistle sounded, Zongzan thought he was being called for a defensive foul and quickly shouted: I didn't touch it!
The referee walked to the technical stage and whistled Landsberg for a diving foul and gave him a technical foul. After the final penalty was announced, the Zhejiang team was completely stunned. Coach Liu Weiwei also immediately communicated with the referee to express his doubts about the penalty.
During this process, the Zhejiang referee bench was whistled for a technical foul because of his dissatisfaction with the penalty and his fierce words. General Manager Fang Jun was even more emotional and could not stop him. He was called for two technical fouls in a row and ejected.
In the subsequent defensive round, Fredette caused a foul by Cheng Shuipeng. The latter was also dissatisfied with the penalty and complained, and the referee whistled a technical foul again.
In just a few minutes, the Zhejiang Jinniu were whistled for 5 technical fouls in a row, and the referee went completely crazy. The Zhejiang team also opened the point difference to 20 points due to continuous fouls.
Let’s talk about Landsberg’s diving foul first. I replayed it many times in slow motion at 0.5x speed. From my perspective, his fall was more due to avoiding the opponent’s block, so Loss of balance and falling. But at the same time, Zongzan's defense is indeed very clean and has no problems.
The technical foul for this flop is debatable. Although the technical foul given to the Zhejiang referee bench and general manager Fang Jun is understandable, if we want to find the cause, what happened later was due to the third A technical foul caused dissatisfaction in Zhejiang.
In short, the diving technical foul given to Landsberg is questionable, and the subsequent technical foul calls changed the game situation and Zhejiang also fell into greater difficulties.
However, as the saying goes, Zhejiang will never be destroyed. After they gradually calmed down, under the leadership of Wu Qian and Landsberg, the Zhejiang players did not give up hope. They used their active fighting to earn points for themselves. With the opportunity, the score difference gradually got closer.
Their tenacity and tenacity allowed them to retain hope until the last moment, so they had a chance to win. In the final moments of the game, they had the ball and were one point behind.
When Landsberg held the ball near the midfield, he used his teammates to pick and roll at a high position, started, and reached the basket. His first layup did not succeed, but Zhang Dayu actively fought for it, allowing The rebound came back to Landsberg.
With little time left, facing Shanghai's double-team, Landsberg completed the shot with a difficult fadeaway jumper from a negative angle.
The ball was scored, the lights came on, the whistle sounded, and cheers were heard. The players on the court rushed towards Landsberg, and the entire bench was completely boiling at that moment. You can see how excited the coach Liu Weiwei was. How excited the players are.
Because Landsberg was whistled for a technical foul for an attack under the basket, the game had twists and turns. As a result, the team was called for five technical fouls in a row and was in trouble. In the end, Landsberg was called for a technical foul. With Zberg's difficult kill, the team completed a 26-point reversal and won the victory.
If Zhejiang has the best way to respond to five consecutive technical fouls, it is a kill!
In an interview after the game, Director Liu Weiwei also expressed his pride in the team and the players. When talking about being whistled for technical fouls consecutively, Director Liu said this - "I just told him The players said that they should dare to take responsibility and be responsible for Chinese basketball. "
This is something worth pondering and thinking about. As for how to understand it, different people may have different ideas.
This is also a game with ups and downs, full of controversy and magic. No matter how the game ends and the hustle and bustle subsides, Zhejiang has won another victory. The same praise must be given to Shanghai, which did not win despite the defeat. It's glorious, but they also proved themselves.
