After the game, Han Xu, a member of the women's basketball team, won the MVP of the whole game, and the fans congratulated one after another, many people said that they deserved it, and the major officials also expressed their congratulations to the women's basketball team.
However, after the carnival, Yao Ming and the Chinese Basketball Association made a major decision, although Han Xu has accepted, many netizens said that this is likely to lead to Han Xu being expelled from the team, and some fans said: I can't understand.
The women's basketball team returned home with full preparation for the Asian Games
At the beginning of July 2023, the women's basketball team had good news, and after several days of hard work, on July 2, after ending the game with Japan, the Chinese women's basketball team defeated Japan 73-71 and successfully won the championship.
This is the 12th time that the Chinese women's basketball team has lifted the championship trophy since its participation in 1976, successfully equaling the results of the South Korean team, which has never been absent, and this is also the first time that the mainland has won the championship in twelve years.
In the whole game, Li Meng and Han Xu among the members of the Chinese women's basketball team performed very well and were successfully selected as the best team of the Asian Cup, and Han Xu won the MVP with her excellent performance.
In this Asian Cup, Han Xu played 22 minutes per game, got 11.8 rebounds and 2.6 blocks, all three statistics were the first in the game.
After winning the championship, Han Xu also won high praise from the WNBA New York Liberes for his wonderful performance on the court, and they expressed their warm congratulations to Han Xu for leading the Chinese women's basketball team to an undefeated record, winning the Asian Cup again after 12 years, and congratulating her on winning the MVP.
After the Asian Cup competition, Han Xu did not return to China with the team, but chose to return to the team, as the champion of the Xinco Asian Cup, she was warmly welcomed by the team members when she returned to the team.
The successful victory of the Asian Cup can be said to be a great encouragement to Han Xu, and returning to the club at this time can give her greater self-confidence to meet the next matches, and can also bring a lot of motivation to the club.
It is revealed that the next goal of the Chinese women's basketball team members is the Asian Games, which is a national event held on their doorstep is very important and the main goal in various sports fields.
Whether it is basketball, table tennis or e-sports, almost all of them are fighting for the Asian Games, and the audience has also expressed their expectations for the performance of Chinese athletes in the Asian Games.
Now that all places have been opened and tickets for the Asian Games will be on sale, many people have expressed their desire to watch the games live, which also brings a lot of motivation and pressure to athletes.
The women's basketball team that has just returned from winning the championship will also be the focus of the Asian Games, basketball as an internationally popular sport, this Asian Games, basketball games will also be concerned by international fans.
For the women's basketball team, although it won the championship, it still has to face great challenges, and the Asian Games will also be a big challenge.
However, at this critical time, the Chinese Basketball Association and Yao Ming made a decision, and this decision also made many people incomprehensible, and said that because of this decision, Han Xu's career will be greatly affected, and there may be a risk of being expelled from the team.
Yao Ming decided that Han Xu would be withdrawn from the team
According to reports, after the Asian Cup, Yao Ming and the Chinese Basketball Association made a decision on Han Xu, and this decision may have a huge impact on Han Xu.
Han Xu, who has now returned to play for the team, did not return to China, but during the critical period of her preparation for the event, she received a request to return to China to prepare for the Olympic Games.
The Chengdu Universiade will be held on the 28th of this month, and it is understood that in order to achieve good results in the Universiade, Yao Ming and the basketball association decided to let Han Xu, who performed well in the Asian Cup and is also a college student, return to China to prepare.
It has been less than a month since the start of the competition, and it has reached a critical period for athletes, and they are preparing hard almost every day, but compared with events such as the Asian Games and the Olympic Games, the Universiade is not so important.
For Han Xu, the competitive pressure in the team is not small, almost everyone is riveted to stand out in the team, if he suddenly takes leave to leave, it is not a good thing for Han Xu.
Many people said that there is no need for the Universiade to let Han Xu come back, after all, this is not a very big event, if you lose the team place because of this matter, some gains are not worth the loss.
More fans said that Han Xu is likely to face expulsion from the team if he does this, and women's basketball captain Yang Liwei is the best example.
On May 18, 2023, the WNBA team Los Angeles Sparks officially posted that Chinese player Yang Liwei is no longer a member of the team, and thanked her for her previous contributions.
The reason why Yang Liwei was expelled from the team has nothing to do with her ability, nor because she violated the relevant regulations, the biggest reason is the change in the international basketball league system.
Because Yang Liwei wants to return to China to lead the Chinese women's basketball team to participate in the Asian Cup, but for the team, this is unacceptable.
In the early stage, Yang Liwei did not plan to prepare for the Asian Cup after consultation, and the Chinese Basketball Association also supported her to continue to play in the WNBA to better improve her strength and prepare for the Olympics and other major competitions.
Yang Liwei's performance after joining the team was also very outstanding, and the team also expressed great satisfaction with it, however, almost all men did not expect accidents.
FIBA's sudden announcement that the Asian Cup will be merged with the Olympic qualifying tournament to be held in November means that this Asian Cup wine is particularly important, and if it does not enter the top four, it will lose Olympic qualification.
Sudden changes made the Asian Cup one of the most critical games in the Olympic cycle, and the Chinese Basketball Association had to recall players who played outside to play for the country.
Yang Liwei, who just received the notice, made a decision to play for the country, and there are 8 members of the current women's basketball team who have no experience in international competitions, and Yang Liwei's decision is crucial.
As the captain of the women's basketball team, Yang Liwei was obliged, and immediately said that he would return to China to prepare, and said that it was a responsibility to obey all the decisions of the organization, and Yang Liwei lost the opportunity to play on the team.
At the same time, Han Xu and Li Meng also received the news at the same time, and although they voluntarily returned to the team, they decided to return to China and compete in the Asian Cup during this critical period.
Now, the Asian Cup has ended perfectly, Han Xu has returned to the team to start training, but not long after returning to participate in the Universiade, many netizens expressed concern that she would be removed from the team like Yang Liwei.
For this decision of the basketball association, Han Xu said that she is honored to go to the Universiade, which is also her next goal.
But what's behind the smile? Many people said that such a decision is not very reasonable, and the continuous conquest and the rush of domestic and foreign journeys are difficult for anyone's body to bear.
More netizens said that Yao Ming has also experienced this period, why did he make this decision?
Yao's decision was challenged
As soon as the news that Han Xu would participate in the Universiade came out, many fans questioned Yao Ming's decision, and some people said that Yao Ming had considered Han Xu's career.
As one of the most powerful players in China, Yao Ming has also suffered from this period, back and forth, his body is simply unbearable, and even he himself has said that such a rush is not good for the players.
At that time, Yao Ming had the opportunity to join the NBA in 2001, but because the basketball association did not allow him, Yao Ming only joined the NBA a year later.
After that, Yao Ming rushed back and forth, taking care of domestic and foreign matches, and many times the schedule was tight, almost giving him no time to rest, which was a very physically draining thing for players.
Moreover, Yang Liwei is the best example, if it were not for the need to return to China to participate in the competition, perhaps Yang Liwei would not be removed, of course, Yang Liwei is because of the country's needs.
But for Han Xu, this Universiade is not a mandatory competition, the Asian Cup and the Universiade are only less than a month apart, such a schedule iron man is estimated to be unbearable.
The biggest worry for fans is Han Xu's team quota and physical condition, in the team, Han Xu has a biggest contender, the two compete for a spot, once one person falls behind, the other will immediately make up.
Many fans said that if Han Xu came back to play, she was likely to face the same situation as Yang Liwei, and even if she was not removed, she might also face the risk of becoming a free agent.
Because if the Universiade loses a place on a professional team, many people say that it is not worth the loss.
During his time as an athlete, Yao Ming was frequently recalled and consumed too much, and his career was seriously affected, which is a pity for many people.
Now, Yao Ming, who has retired, has let his players suffer from such a situation, which makes many players incomprehensible, which is almost no good for Han Xu.
Although the fans disagreed, Han Xu also publicly stated that "this is a very grand competition, I hope that we can achieve good results for the team and continue to win glory for the country."
Perhaps for Han Xu, it will also be a good thing, and it will not be as the fans fear, and what we as fans have to do is to support every game of the athlete and support her decision.
epilogue
Although the fans raised a lot of questions, maybe we can give Yao Ming and the basketball association more trust, give Han Xu more inspiration, as fans, what we can do is not interfere with their decisions, but cheer for them on the court.
Every time athletes go on the field, they need to give a hundred times their efforts, in the time we don't know, they train day and night in order to stand on the field, we don't give them a lot of pressure because of their blurted words, we just need to support them, believe in them, and give them the greatest cheers.
