This season, the high-speed group entered the Shandong men's basketball team for the second time, bringing hope to many Shandong fans. But the team's performance in the league was astounding, and after the second stage of the CBA, they only achieved a league record of 15 wins and 13 losses to finish 10th in the standings.
As the top four team in the playoffs last season, the Shandong men's basketball team has declined so quickly this season, in large part, as a result of the team's coaching change. Although the new coach Xu Changsuo has coached the Shandong youth team for many years, his ability is not enough to be the manager of a CBA team.
Although the old coach Gong Luming officially returned, he brought a lot of help to Xu Changsuo, and the League results of the Shandong team also improved somewhat. However, Shandong fans still shouted out the slogan of Xu Changsuo's class, and hoped that gong Xiaobin, the meritorious coach, could regain the handsome seal of the Shandong men's basketball team.
The fans' ideas are beautiful, but they are very difficult to implement. Everyone knows how deep the contradiction between Gong Xiaobin and the management of the high-speed group is. If the club's new management does not make compromises, Gong Xiaobin will not be able to return to the Shandong men's basketball team to coach.
And Gong Xiaobin was also elected as the chairman of the Shandong Basketball Association last year, which makes it even more unlikely that he will return to the Shandong men's basketball team in the short term.
In addition, it has recently been reported that in the election of the Chinese Basketball Association at the beginning of this year, Gong Xiaobin was also selected by the General Administration of Sports and will serve as an important position as vice chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, and is mainly responsible for the referee management of the CBA League.
Fans who often watch the CBA league know that although the level of our league is getting higher and higher now, the referee's law enforcement ability and level are difficult to compliment. Almost every round of the CBA League, there will be some games where the referee misjudged, misjudged and missed the judgment.
Wang Mei and Yan Jun, two veteran referees who have been enforcing the CBA League for many years, have caused a lot of controversy because of problems such as leaky whistles, partial whistles and human feelings, and have been questioned by the majority of Chinese basketball fans.
Gong Xiaobin, who used to be the coach of Shandong and Qingdao men's basketball teams, also had many disputes with the referee on the court because of the penalty problem in the game, and there was a situation where he was punished for technical fouls.
Now Gong Xiaobin has been elected as the vice president of the Basketball Association and is specifically responsible for the refereeing work, to some extent, this is also an important signal for the management of the Basketball Association to strengthen the management of the CBA League referees.
Judging from Gong Xiaobin's personality, I believe that after taking office, he will be able to drastically reform the referee management work of the CBA, boldly say no to the ugly behavior of those referees, and increase the management of referees.
And the chairman of the Basketball Association Yao Ming, the relationship with Gong Xiaobin is also extraordinary, the relationship between the two when playing for the national team is quite good, as Yao Ming's big brother, and also are internal players, Gong Xiaobin at that time did not give guidance to the little brother Yao Ming.
Now, Yao Ming and Gong Xiaobin have joined forces for the second time in the Basketball Association, and the two will certainly be able to work together to continue the in-depth reform of Chinese basketball.
With Yao Ming's full support, I believe that Gong Xiaobin's work in the Basketball Association can be carried out more smoothly. At that time, many of the refereeing problems that have been deposited in the CBA league for a long time will also be reasonably solved.
Therefore, Gong Xiaobin's appointment as vice chairman of the Basketball Association is still very worthy of chinese fans' expectations. As for when Gong Xiaobin will be able to take up his official post, let us wait for the official announcement of the Chinese Basketball Association...
