When the final flute sounded, Yang Ming was carried in a circle by Moland, and then walked to the middle circle together and the team members sang and danced, all the pressure, at that time, completely released!
In an interview, Yang Ming said that this time the championship is more exciting than four years ago. But the speed of Yang Ming's speech, it is difficult to hear that he has too many excited emotions, but it is a kind of calm that goes with the flow and deserves its name. This handsome young marshal proved himself in only two years.
After winning this championship, the 36-year-old Yang Ming became the first in the history of the Liaoning men's basketball team to win the league championship as a player and coach respectively, and was also the first head coach in the history of Chinese basketball to win the National Games and league championships in the second year as a head coach, and the youngest manager in the league in the past 19 years!
But all this is really not easy to come by, all of them are bitter and arduous, only Yang Ming knows it.
Nineteen years ago, in 2003, Adi Jiang led the Bayi team to defeat the youthful Guangdong team in the finals, and won the championship after a year, that year, Adi Jiang was also 36 years old.
At the beginning, Wang Fei left the Bayi coaching position, Zhang Bin took over, but the results of the team were not good, so Adi Jiang was appointed as the coach of the Iron Army, and took over the marshal seal in a hurry, resulting in Bayi losing to the Shanghai team with Yao Ming in the 2001-02 season, losing the championship for the first time since the establishment of the CBA. At that moment, Adi Jiang was under tremendous pressure.
Similar to Adi Jiang, Yang Ming went to the front to become the head coach of the Liaoning team, and he was also in danger of being appointed, and he also completed his self-justification in a relatively short period of time under the same controversial circumstances.
Three years ago, Yang Ming, who "raised his hand to listen to Beijing's scolding, broke his wrist to shine in Beijing", officially sheathed his sword, announced his retirement, and entered the management of the club. I thought that I would slowly accumulate experience and enter the coaching position after a long time in the future, but I did not think that only a year later, Yang Ming was quickly appointed as the head coach of the Liaoning team, took over the coaching whip of the meritorious coach Guo Shiqiang, and flew to qingdao to meet the team after the resumption of the league.
To what extent is it "fast"? At that time, Yang Ming had not yet obtained the B-level certificate of coaching, so he could not officially serve as the head coach of the Liaoning team, and according to the regulations, he could only sit and direct, and the foreign coach Martinez stood on the sideline to direct. In that season of all-out "recovery", Liaoning lost to Guangdong in the finals and ranked second.
The 2020-21 season is Yang Ming's first season as a real manager, although he still led the team to the finals and won the runner-up, but he encountered very big doubts. In the finals, facing the old and spicy Du Feng, Yang Ming was still immature in terms of dispatching troops and responding to the scene, losing to Guangdong without Yi Jianlian and Maxon Brooks in the case of the overall lineup, at the press conference after the game, Yang Ming could not hide his frustration, he touched the table first, and then said word by word: "I can accept any insults, but I am afraid that I am sorry for this team." "The depth of love and the depth of responsibility are like this. Subsequently, Yang Ming proposed his resignation to the club, and in the qualifying tournament for the National Games that followed, it was Wu Naiqun who was responsible for directing the Liaoning team.
Just when people were worried that Yang Ming would really leave the coaching position, Yang Ming chose to get up from where he fell and led the Liaoning team to the Shaanxi National Games, which was also the second National Games champion in the history of the team. Coincidentally, in the 2017-18 season, Liaoning won the first league championship in the history of the team after winning the National Games championship first.
However, the coincidence is only a coincidence, there is no natural champion, in order to defeat the rich Guangdong, the wealthy Shanghai and Beijing, and the youth of Zhejiang Shuangxiong and other strong teams, Yang Ming still faces very difficult challenges.
However, Yang Ming is no longer a rookie coach, not to mention that he is also assisted by Jiang Xingquan, the "godfather of Chinese basketball". In the process of the league, when Guo Allen and other international players returned from the World Preliminary Round, Yang Ming resolutely arranged a rotation and slowly adjusted their state. In the second stage, Yang Ming arranged for Guo Allen, who was injured, to take a break, even if he failed in the early stage of the third stage, he did not rush to let Guo Allen come back, which led to a bloody resurrection in the playoffs, and Guo Allen, who bombed 40 points and 10 assists in a single game.
In the use of foreign aid, Yang Ming gave Full Trust to Ferge and Morland. Especially Moland, the first two seasons in Shanxi, he was just a bad tempered brother, but when he arrived in Liaoning, he was fully integrated into this team. Yang Ming said that this is because the Liaoning team is an inclusive collective. But among them, there must be yang ming's credit, he can get along with Moland like a friend, marking that Yang Ming's art of taming people has reached a very high level.
Interestingly, because of the excessive excitement off the field, Moland was so oblivious in a game that he hit Yang Ming's body with a towel, in addition, Moland also replaced the Weibo avatar with Yang Ming's 囧 photo, but Yang Ming did not settle the account after the fall. After winning the championship, Moland hugged Yang Ming in a circle and kissed the manager. These details show that under the tutelage of Yang Ming, the Liaoning team is very harmonious and harmonious.
It is also Yang Ming's good allocation of the player's physical fitness and state, liaoning team made full use of the advantages of the thickness of the lineup, learned the lessons of last season, ranked first in the three stages, even if there were ups and downs at the beginning of the third stage, still won the regular season championship. In the playoffs, in the face of Du Feng's change of position or even a strange formation, Yang Ming was not in danger, calmly coped, and finally swept through Guangdong without alarm, completing revenge! Across the mountain of Guangdong, Guangsha, who lacked major generals, could no longer resist Liaoning, and Yang Ming won another championship as a coach as he wished!
Yang Ming revealed after the game that after a season, his pressure was very high, which also caused some problems in his body, so he must seize the next short offseason to recover and adjust well, "because in a few months it will be time to prepare for the new season." ”
It can be seen that Yang Ming is very clear, walking off the podium, everything starts from scratch, there are more glories waiting for Yang Ming to fight for in the future, and the glory of being the head coach has just begun for him.
