On April 26, Beijing time, there are still more than 3 months to turn 37 years old, as a young marshal, Yang Ming finally climbed to the top of the championship again. The difference is that 4 years ago, Yang Ming won the CBA championship as a player, and now Yang Ming has become a championship as a coach, which also allows him to finally crush the doubts about his coaching.
In the 2017-18 season, Yang Ming once won the first championship in team history with Liaoning as a player, but at that time, Yang Ming was already a bench player of the team, and he was gradually giving way to Guo Allen and Zhao Jiwei, highlighting Liaoning's heritage.
And after Yang Ming stepped down from Guo Shiqiang, he became a firefighting coach in the line of fire, and in the past two seasons, he led the team to the finals, but he always missed the championship, and for two consecutive years, he lost the championship 1-2 in the finals, which also made Yang Ming encounter questions from the outside world, and there were many criticisms about his coaching ability.
However, this year, Yang Ming finally led Liaoning to crush the doubts, he not only led the team to achieve 32 wins and 1 loss in the regular season, winning the regular season championship, but also led the team to win 9 consecutive victories in the playoffs to maintain a full victory and win the championship. Yang Ming led Liaoning to win the second championship in team history after 4 years, and became the third team in CBA history to win the championship with a complete playoff victory.
Yang Ming also created two feats:
First, Yang Ming became the second overall champion coach in liaoning team history after Guo Shiqiang.
Second, Yang Ming became the third player in the history of the CBA to win the championship in both the player era and the coaching era, comparable to A's Jiang and Du Feng.
Adi Jiang won the CBA championship five times with Bayi and led eight times to two championships in 2003 and 2007 as head coach. As for Du Feng, he won 7 CBA championships with Guangdong in his player era, and led Guangdong to win 3 championships in the coach era.
