In that game on the evening of May 11, Liaoning defeated Guangdong with a disparity of 116-95 and successfully advanced to the finals. However, the post-match press conference caused quite a stir.
Coach Du Feng expressed his frustration at the Guangdong team's loss at the press conference, and mentioned that Zhou Qi was knocked down by the Liaoning team many times in the last game, revealing a kind of unwillingness and accusation between his words, and even said that if Zhou Qi can play tonight, the Liaoning team may not be able to win. Such remarks are undoubtedly looking for external reasons for the team's defeat, trying to shift the focus from the performance of the game itself to some off-field factors.
But Coach Yang Ming's response showed full domineering. He bluntly pointed out that don't always use injuries and other excuses, the Liaoning team wins and wins, and the Guangdong team loses and loses, and the cruelty of competitive sports lies in this. Yang Ming's remarks were resounding, emphasizing the certainty and objectivity of the results of the game, which cannot be questioned.
Fans also have their own opinions on this post-match verbal exchange. Some fans believe that Du Feng, as the head coach of a club that has won 11 championships, really shouldn't say such things. In competitive sports, victory and defeat are commonplace, and it is even more important to accept the results and learn from them. And blaming the loss on other factors, and even talking about Zhou Qi's injury, seems a bit petty, and it is not in line with his identity and status.
Looking back on this game, Liaoning's victory was not accidental. They showed great teamwork and strong fighting power in the game, and the players played well, both offensively and defensively. And the Guangdong team may have deficiencies in some aspects, which led to the final defeat. If you only focus on the so-called "off-field factors" and do not reflect on your own problems, it will be difficult for the team to make more progress in the future.
The allure of competitive sports lies in its uncertainty and brutality. Every race is a new challenge, and no one can win forever. In the face of failure, we should treat it with a more mature and rational attitude, rather than blindly complaining and making excuses. Only in this way can we truly learn from the experience and lessons of failure and improve our own strength.
At the same time, we should also see that physical confrontation between players is inevitable during the game. Within reason, this confrontation is part of the game, and it stimulates the fighting spirit and passion of the players. But if an overemphasis on confrontation has led to injuries to players, it is something that needs to be taken seriously. However, it is clearly inappropriate to use this as the main reason after a loss.
For the fans, their love and support for the team is understandable. But when looking at the results of the game, you should also be objective and rational. Don't blame and complain because the team you support loses, but analyze the team's problems from the game and give the team more encouragement and support.
In this post-match controversy, we can see different people's different understandings and attitudes towards competitive sports. But no matter what, we should respect the result of the game and respect the hard work and dedication of every player. Only in this way can competitive sports truly give full play to its due value and significance, and promote the continuous development of sports.
There will be many games in the future, and I hope that all teams can face every challenge with a more positive attitude and continue to improve their strength. I also hope that the fans can continue to maintain their enthusiasm and support for the team and jointly create a good sports atmosphere. Let's look forward to more exciting games and moving sports stories together.
