Live bar July 10 news According to the news of Tianjin Daily yesterday, the Tianjin men's basketball team has signed a contract with the top salary of former Shanghai men's basketball center Zhang Zhaoxu. In an interview with the reporter of "New Horizons in Sports", Zhang Zhaoxu said that the reason why he finally chose to join Tianjin was because during the trial training, he was impressed by the sincerity they showed, and the two sides quickly hit it off.
Talking about choosing to join the Tianjin men's basketball team, Zhang Zhaoxu said: "In the end, I think there are several reasons for choosing Tianjin. First of all, in the initial contact, including the negotiation of intentions, to the process of negotiating the contract, Tianjin has always shown me a lot of enthusiasm and sincerity, which impressed me very much. Then there's the whole team, from the leader to the coach, and the players, and I understand it, and the plan for the team to fight the league together next, and the goals, including the use of me, are also very suitable for my own ideas, which I think is very appropriate. The other is the city of Tianjin, which is also a city that I like very much. ”
Speaking about the squad and his mission next season, Zhang Zhaoxu said: "Our team may be in the traditional big center position, and now there is a shortage of personnel. Even if I am in place, maybe the overall height of our interior line is still relatively small in the whole CBA. Of course, I am also willing to take on more responsibilities on the pitch and hope that I will live up to everyone's expectations, to the expectations of coaches, teammates, and fans. I will take on more responsibility for attack and defense, and hopefully I can rely on my height defense to win more games for the team. ”
It is understood that Zhang Zhaoxu will come to Tianjin to practice with the team in the near future after handling some personal affairs in Shanghai. In order to better prepare for the CBA game of the new season, Zhang Zhaoxu has been training hard in this offseason to restore his physical condition to the best.
"In the past two years, I have indeed suffered some unexpected injuries, and I have learned before in my recovery that because I am taller and heavier, I have higher requirements for deep muscles. In view of this link, I have been paying attention to this aspect with the physical coach and team doctor, and strengthening this aspect of training, with the aim of hoping to complete the new season in a full attendance manner. Zhang Zhaoxu said.
