On august 4, 2020, CBA semi-final, the first game of “beijing-guangdong war.
The absence of big brother Yi Jianlian made the Guangdong team seriously worried about the weak internal reserve. Perhaps for surprise, coach Du Feng did not send the traditional internal line to Su Wei according to the conventional thinking, instead, it was decided that the soldiers would be in danger and du runwang, the second-grade General, was on top of the starting line.
However, on the battlefield of blood and fire, the immature du runwang did not create any unexpected happiness. Instead, he lost a foul at the first time after the opening jump ball, which was less than half a day, the number of personal fouls quickly accumulated to the fourth time, and he could only walk back to the bench in a trance, just like the wrong answer that was first screened down.
Yi jianlian, who was supervising the battle on the field, was staring at his face, and his face was as heavy as water. Seeing the no-fly zone which was guarded by him in the past suddenly fell, big brother silently advanced his return time and went into battle with injury three days later, he carried the Guangdong team over the line of defense of the Beijing team.
A week later, the Guangdong team finally went through hardships and defeated the Liaoning team, crowned as the first “ten champion King” in the history of CBA, but the price was Yi Jianlian’s broken Achilles tendon.
Without Yi Jianlian’s “Dinghai God needle”, CBA was choppy, and the Guangdong team on the throne was in turmoil. In order to find a replacement for Yi Jianlian, Guangdong team decisively joined Fan Ziming’s battle. Regarding the plans submitted by the Guangdong team, there are different rumors, but the only thing that is the same is that Du runwang will be one of the chips.
Past cases have intuitively proved that Du runwang is neither good at rebounding, nor can he protect the frame. He can only hand over 2.7 rebounds and 0.1 cap report cards in nearly 20 minutes of playing time, obviously, it is not up to the standard of a qualified no. 5 player and can only play a space-type no. 4 position on the court. However, du runwang’s 40% high three-point shot percentage is certainly accurate, but at that time, the Guangdong team did not lack peripheral fire points. Wang zaikai 47%, Hu Mingxuan 44%, Zhou Peng 39%……
Therefore, du runwang is not indispensable. If he can be exchanged with other non-core players for fan ziming who averaged 12.8 points 7.7 rebounds and 2.95 assists in the rematch phase of xinjiang team last season, the Guangdong team may be able to find an alternative answer on the fifth position.
Interestingly, du runwang and Fan Ziming once played teammates in the Chinese national youth team in the U18 Asian Youth Games in 2016. Fan Ziming was the top scorer in the team, with an average of 14.1 points and 8.8 rebounds in the game, du runwang averaged 10 points and 5 points. 9 rebound, score and Qiu Tian and line up in the third place, which is responsible for the assistance of opening space for Fan Ziming. Unexpectedly, four years later, du runwang would once again become a supporting role in the transaction rumors with Fan Ziming.
Perhaps in people’s eyes, du runwang is a natural supporting role, only doing receive the ball shooting on the court.
In fact, as early as the youth team played basketball, he had more possibilities. He was a forward who could run and jump, liked to pour the ball into rim, and even occasionally could be a guest guard, the template is Gu Quan of Shenzhen team. But at that time, he was still a warm-blooded teenager who only knew to go forward bravely. He played a simple and rough way and did not know how to protect his body. One day, the hard knee broke out with severe injuries, which took away most of his explosive power, leaving only the height and hand feeling.
Fan Ziming and the Guangdong team had no fate after all. The Guangzhou team sent him to the Beijing team. At the opening match of the 2020-21 season, du runwang was the one who represented the Guangdong team in the middle circle jump ball.
That was the glorious night when the 10th champion banner of Guangdong team rose to the dome and the championship ring was shining with each other. However, under the surprise attack that Zhejiang team had been preparing for many times, however, the defending champion started the new season with a fierceness without the escort of his eldest brother. Seeing the sound of failure, du runwang, who replaced his eldest brother as the starting center of the team, became the most conspicuous weakness again, only one rebound was caught in the 22-minute debut, and two mistakes and two fouls were also lost. Downtown of the three shots were lost. The positive and negative values were the lowest in the team-31, which can only be described as horrible.
At that time, almost no one believed that Du runwang would be one of the key figures to help Guangdong team tide over the difficulties during Yi Jianlian’s recovery. Only du Feng always looked at him differently.
Du Feng, who coached on the field, was a famous “Devil coach” and always pointed out the mistakes made by the players without mercy, du runwang, who has a relatively shallow experience in the competition, is naturally one of the objects that Du’s guidance focuses on. “Is there anyone passing the ball like this?! Talk every day! Talk every day! Can you shoot at the bottom corner?” “Can you watch the legend of the basket? I really admire you. “” two mistakes, you will make two mistakes later… are you the director?” Du runwang, how slow are you going to run? Tired, right?”
…… Every time the familiar whistle blows, the Guangdong team players can’t help shaking their minds. Looking down the voice, “death gaze” will break into their eyes.
But under the stadium, Du Feng’s guidance became a parent who worked hard for the children and worried about everything. In the first eleven games after the rematch, du runwang felt nothing, and the three-point shot percentage dropped to 25%, matches of 1 in N and even 0 in N are everywhere, but Du Feng’s guidance never blamed him for this, but constantly encouraged him: “bold vote, don’t think so much, you are not to blame if you can’t throw in the empty space. Believe in yourself!” Every time he stayed up late to edit the game video, he would specially cut out his shooting, help him analyze his movements and watch him unhappy, so he called him to the room and helped him relieve the pressure by chatting, patiently reshaping his confidence in shooting… like this, du runwang recovered later.
In fact, it is not just du feng, but the whole guangdong men’s basketball club maintains the same system and style to manage players from the bottom to the bottom. The same is true for zhang di of the third team and qu shaobin of the second team. They are not only meticulous, but also meticulous. Most importantly, they are willing to give players the opportunity to make mistakes.
The Guangdong team is one of the teams with the most strict requirements for players in the whole CBA. Whoever dares to be late for one time will deduct the training fee for the whole month. All small players will confiscate their mobile phones. Only when the training is completed very well, only two hours of game time was rewarded (you can imagine how hard Hu Mingxuan had to work at that time). Put an end to laziness from the root and value sweat rather than talent.
In addition, although American Basketball is popular, the youth training system in Guangdong men’s basketball firmly believes that European basketball is the way out for Chinese basketball players. Over the years, they not only sent their coaches to study in the powerful country of basketball in Lithuania, but also specially hired the coaches from Lithuania to participate in coaching in the youth team, devoting themselves to brand the concept of “team basketball” in the inner heart of every player.
Du runwang grew gradually and steadily in such an environment. From leaving Qinhuangdao in 2012 to entering the third team in Guangdong, he was elected to the first team in Guangdong by coach Du Feng in 2018. He has been polishing his fingertips with years of sweat, he was doomed not to be the amazing proud son of heaven, but he trained the three-point shooting that no one dared to underestimate.
In the fifth game of the rookie season, he shot the Venus in Shandong in 5 of the downtown 6 shots; In the seventh game, against the Xinjiang team with strong soldiers, he was even in the last 17 seconds of regular time, when the Guangdong team was 4 points behind, they scored two key three-point goals in a row at the bottom! When the game was forcibly dragged into the plus by himself, du runwang scored 25 points in the 9th three-point goal of the whole game, he joined hands with Zhao Rui’s 40 points and Meng Duo’s killing to create “the most wonderful game in CBA history”; One day later he played Fujian, and he made 5 out of 6 three-point shots, he surpassed Chen Linjian, the league’s top striker in accuracy.
After these three games, du runwang became famous, but at the same time, all teams also began to regard him as the target of key surveillance, and no longer allowed him to get easy shooting opportunities, du runwang’s rookie season also led to an obvious high opening and low walking, but in the end he still three-point shot percentage by 46%, among all the domestic players who shot more than 30 times in the season, they topped the list.
In order to better capture those fleeting shooting opportunities, du runwang deliberately accelerated his shooting rhythm in the second grade and reduced the space needed for shooting, but perhaps he was anxious for success, he suffered obvious ups and downs in his state of mind, falling back to 40% three-point shot percentage. He no longer looked as deadly as before, but in fact, he was gaining momentum.
After he completely adapted to the optimized shooting action and adjusted his mentality, his advantage began to appear, because he could ignore the defender’s interference to some extent, so as to maintain stable and efficient output. It is true that du runwang is not fan ziming, and it is even less likely to be yi jianlian. However, he can do his best and climb to the height of the small mountains in this field.
In this season, du runwang’s three-point shot percentage has stabilized at a super high level of 45.2%, even higher than those famous shooters such as Jiang Weize Weizhe, ranking first in the league, you know, this is his third consecutive season with a three-point shooting rate of more than 43%, even without considering the number (4.7 shots per game), no one in China can be equal to du runwang.
Du runwang’s rapid development cannot be separated from coach Du Feng’s teaching according to his aptitude.
In the season when yi jianlian was away, coach du feng moved du runwang from the starting center position to the starting power forward, and developed two sets of new-era play with a complete lineup of five to five, let the Guangdong team, which has many soldiers and many soldiers, have sufficient physical strength to crush the opponents at both ends of attack and defense.
At that time, coach du runwang put du runwang and Zhao Rui, Zhou Peng, Su Wei/Zeng Fanshi and weimes/Brooks in the same team. Although this team has no absolute height, it is high enough to win at the average height, the mobility is good enough, and it can use high-intensity pressure on the ball and timely rotation to attack, so as to avoid falling into passivity in positional warfare as much as possible.
Zhao rui is a rare high-control guard in china. Zhou peng can defend from one to five. Both foreign aid and defense are excellent. Zeng fanghe and su wei are trustworthy blue collar “meat shields”, when playing with them, du runwang was well protected. He could resolutely carry out delays and rotations and make up for the deficiencies in the protective frame with diligent steps, create opportunities for other teammates with solid rebound cards.
At the offensive end, benefiting from the impact of foreign aid or Zhao Rui in arch top, once the opponent is forced to shrink the defense, du runwang, who lies in the bottom corner, will get the opportunity to shoot empty. At the same time, his restraint on the weak side also opened an extremely open offensive space for the core of the strong side, making the opponent dare not fully block the middle road, just like “two bottles of poison”, making the opponent in a dilemma.
In addition, du feng also intentionally increased du runwang’s proportion of holding the ball in the high position, and sometimes put his shooting threat on the surface, taking a big player away from the basket, it is convenient for other players to walk in the bottom line. At this time, du runwang can not only pass the ball into the penalty area, but also directly fire at ultra distance to catch the other side off guard.
However, du runwang’s ability to read defense and deal with the ball is still lacking, and it is difficult to play freely in this routine, which is also the main reason why he is scolded at this stage.
Later, Du Feng arranged many off the ball Catch & Shoot tactics for du runwang, which enriched the team and du runwang’s personal play.
From these arrangements of coach Du Feng, you can clearly see that he is not satisfied with letting du runwang only be a bottom corner shooter, du Feng, who also played the fourth position, obviously wanted du runwang to assume a more important role.
In the eyes of his opponent, du runwang is a tall assassin Antiaris toxicaria Lesch, and in the eyes of his teammates and friends, he is also a unique donkey brother. Friends often ridicule whether his face is growing again, but in fact, when du runwang was young, his face was not as long as today……
Although he is a little anxious, don’t forget that Du runwang is only 23 years old. In the past few years, he has hardened himself into the first three-point shooter in the league, and in the future, he will use this three-point goal to further expand his influence in the game, play a more important role.
Will the national team be a bigger stage for du runwang? We will wait and see.
