As a result, many netizens ridiculed Shen Zijie, thinking that it was he who chose to travel with his girlfriend at a critical moment, which led to the team's defeat.
Whether it is a national or international sporting event, the personal life of the athlete will become the focus of attention from the outside world. Some star athletes, their love lives are even more high-profile, and every love scandal may cause quite a stir. In this incident, Shen Zijie's girlfriend made her first public appearance, and her identity and background became the focus of everyone's attention. While the outside world was speculating and ridiculing, many netizens stood up to call Shen Zijie and his girlfriend, thinking that the loving interaction between them would not affect the result of the game, bringing some positive energy to Shen Zijie and allowing him to play better in the next game.
1. The emotional life of athletes has attracted much attention
As a professional athlete, their every move on and off the field has the potential to be the focus of media and fan attention. Some star athletes, their personal lives have almost no privacy to speak of, and every relationship has the potential to be exposed and amplified. Among them, there are some cases that have been criticized for emotional problems, and some have affected their game status and career.
It is precisely because of the existence of such cases that more people have doubts and discussions about the emotional lives of athletes. Everyone is curious about what kind of reason will cause some athletes to be repeatedly frustrated on emotional issues and have negative news. For athletes who are able to manage their emotional lives and achieve outstanding results, the doubts and concerns of the outside world can become irrelevant, and they have proved that personal happiness is not a stumbling block to their dreams.
Second, Shen Zijie's love affair sparked heated discussions
Recently, a piece of news about Shenzhen men's basketball player Shen Zijie was widely forwarded on social media, and Shen Zijie's girlfriend posted a photo of the two traveling in Thailand on her personal social account. In the accompanying text of the photo, his girlfriend specifically mentioned Koh Samui, saying that this is his favorite island, which is considered by many netizens to be a public relationship and express love for Shen Zijie.
For such a move, many netizens speculated and ridiculed, believing that it was because Shen Zijie chose to travel with his girlfriend at a critical moment that the Shenzhen men's basketball team was defeated in the CBA playoffs. In the 1/4 finals, the Shenzhen men's basketball team was indeed eliminated with a score of 0-3 and failed to advance to the semifinals.
Many netizens stood up to call for them, thinking that it was because Shen Zijie had gained a certain amount of happiness in his love life that he would have a better performance in the game, and love itself would not become a burden for him, but it could bring him some positive energy and let him have a better state and performance in the next game.
3. The athlete's balance
Whether in a love life or a professional career, balance can be a topic that can never be avoided. They need to be able to balance all aspects in order to develop and perform better.
They need to learn how to balance their love life and career planning, which is not an easy task. Sometimes, they need to train and prepare for events for a long time, which can limit their relationship with their families and loved ones. If there is an emotional dispute or other problem, it is likely to affect their training status and performance.
They need to learn how to strike a balance between playing as a team and individual ability. On the pitch, the interests of the team are always paramount, and as a player, they need to learn how to play their best in teamwork and achieve more victories. This does not mean that individual ability is less important, only by maintaining individual ability can you bring more help and support to the team.
epilogue
Whether it is Shen Zijie's love affair or the personal lives of other athletes, we don't have the right to interfere and speculate too much, everyone has their own lifestyle and choices, what we can do is to give them more understanding and support. For athletes, they need to learn how to maintain their independence and steadfastness in the face of various voices in the outside world, and make choices and decisions that are responsible for themselves.
I hope that Shen Zijie can have a better state and performance in the next games, whether it is in his love life or career, he can achieve the happiness and achievements he wants.
