With the final whistle sounding, the finals of Liaoning and Guangsha once again ended with a large score of Liaoning baskets, thus completing the sweep of Guangsha with a big score of 4-0, and once again holding up the Mou Zuoyun Cup, which symbolized supreme glory, after four years.
In the 2017-18 season, Guo Allen, who was in full swing, envisioned that his own era was coming, and what he did not expect was this second crown, and the first time was four years. A professional athlete, throughout his career there are several more four years of good waiting. After winning the championship, Yang Ming's coach laughed, Jiang Xingquan, who was over his old age, guided the old tears, the young Zhang Zhenlin was excited, and Guo Allen, as the main general, behaved relatively calmly, he hugged his teammate Fu Hao, and when facing the interview camera, he drew a grinning smile with his hands.
The reporter was also puzzled by this, asking Guo Allen what the significance of winning the championship was for him, and was he not happy. The eldest nephew said: "For me personally, I don't know what the point of winning the championship is. I just do my job and play basketball. Probably for Liaoning basketball and fans, it is a relatively happy thing. As a party, I may be a kind of insistence on overcoming myself. Sometimes a lot of emotions during this time, including the feeling of being able to overcome the ego in the game, I think it is more valuable, more rare, and difficult to do. Guo Allen said that even if he does not play in the future, this persistence is a good grind, and the encouragement and support of his family is the source of his strength, which is far more significant than winning the championship.
As for why he was not so excited, Guo Allen admitted: "It is not the last second that we killed them and then won the championship." This feeling is not the same as that feeling. To be honest, because I'm older, I don't have that much sensual stuff anymore. Therefore, the joy should still be shared with Liaoning fans who like basketball. They didn't abandon us last year when we didn't cross the hurdle of Guangdong. This year, our victory over Guangdong is to give the fans a good explanation. ”
Guo Allen is talking about the experience of he couldn't help but cry in the players' tunnel after last year's finals. A year ago, Guo Allen, who was in front of the camera, once choked up, expressed his sorry for the Liaoning fans who supported him, and said that he wanted to give the championship as a reward to the fans, but he regretted that the team could not do it, and he was also very remorseful. This year, I believe that Guo Allen has always carried such a belief, spurring himself to continue to struggle, you can imagine how much pressure he faces when he only gets 4 points and sends 4 mistakes because of a hand injury in the G2 battle.
In this year's interview, the eldest nephew finally raised his eyebrows and breathed, and finally was able to give an explanation to the Liaoning fans. Although a year ago, I did not achieve "not to be sad with myself", but this time I did "not to be happy with things". Guo Allen really grew. The maturity of the mind as a core point guard may be more important than the tempering of a technical action on the court. I believe that whether in the league or in the international arena, Guo Allen, who has such a mentality, will be even stronger.
As Guo Allen said in the interview, "After so many years of playing, I am also ashamed of Liaoning basketball, giving everything I have, and then maybe I have nothing to look forward to", without these pressures, Guo Allen can return to the essence of basketball, play because I like it, and play because I love it. After all, he is now in his prime, with the rise of Zhang Zhenlin, Zhao Jiwei's more and more trustworthy, as well as Han Dejun, Li Xiaoxu's old and strong, this playoff trip 9 wins and 0 losses is just the beginning, the era belonging to the Liaoning men's basketball team seems to be finally coming. What height can Guo Allen reach next? Let's wait and see.
