"The UAE will play." Du Feng told reporters after the battle between Hongyuan and Shanghai. Remember that after the opening match, Du Feng, when answering the attendance of the UAE League this season, made it clear that the UAE League would play one game and rest one game. As a result, this so-called "one break" became "a few breaks" after a few games, "the UAE League will play", and it has become "the UAE League may play down the field". In the blink of an eye, Hongyuan defeated Sichuan to win five consecutive wins, and Yi Jianlian only played the opening game between Hongyuan and the Shenzhen men's basketball team this season, five games down, a total of 7 minutes, almost half a quarter, everyone never saw him appear on the field again. So, what is the situation in the UAE? Four consecutive truces, just "recuperation" can not be said, after all, athletes need to compete to maintain their form, this no one can be an exception. In the case of the UAE League, many speculated that he was accidentally injured in the first game and needed some time to recover from the injury.
Is the UAE injured? At least from the official caliber, Yi Jianlian did not have injuries. From the managers of teams such as Zhu Fangyu and Du Feng, to the official injury reports of the CBA, as well as the daily reports of major authoritative media, there is no news about the injury of the UAE League. Of course, given that Hongyuan has always been very strict with the news blockade, we cannot completely rule out the possibility that the UAE will be injured and covered by Hongyuan. But judging from Zhu Fangyu's statement before the start of the new season, this possibility is indeed unlikely. Because at that time, Zhu Fangyu swore that Yi Jianlian had fully recovered and could play normally in the new season.
Zhu Fangyu did not lie, and the first game of the new season, the UAE League, put on the front and stood on the long-lost CBA field. Although the playing time is not much, the SCORING efficiency of the UAE League is extremely high, cutting 16 points in a row in 7 minutes, and the three-point line is even more bulletless, giving the Shenzhen men's basketball team a great sense of oppression to the little brother of the same province. Of course, the athleticism and speed of the UAE League in the game are indeed incomparable with his peak. But if you think about it, a veteran in his thirties, who has also experienced a serious injury such as a ruptured Achilles tendon, can return to the field, which is already considered to be the care of God, what else can we ask for? After playing the opening battle, the UAE League has been suspended for four consecutive games, I believe that his body may indeed be unwell, but it has not reached the point of injury, after all, in the last game Du Feng said that in fact, the UAE League wants to play, but in the end it was blocked by the coaching staff, which shows that at least physically, the UAE League is basically no problem.
From Du Feng's external caliber so far, we can judge that he is hiding a hand. Last season, there was no Yi Jianlian, Hongyuan still reached the finals, still won the championship, and the team also adapted to the situation that there was no big guy present and needed to fight on its own. Du Feng also hopes that the team's hard work can continue to be maintained this season, so the delay in letting the UAE League review is to improve the team's ability and level of playing hard battles, as well as to abandon the dependence on Big Brother on the spiritual level. In addition, Du Feng also hopes that the UAE League can play a game and rest a few games, which will not affect the maintenance of the state, but also allow him to avoid injuries as much as possible, after all, Du Feng has experienced the rupture of the Achilles tendons of his own, Yi Jianlian and Ma Shang, and really does not want the UAE to have any mistakes!
