Xinhua News Agency, Urumqi, January 22, question: watching the idol Yao Ming is looking forward to breaking into a sky in the United States — an exclusive interview with Women’s Basketball National hand Han Xu

Xinhua news agency reporters Sun Zhe and Ma Di

averaged 15.9 points, 8.9 rebounds, 2.1 cap, this is the report card of WCBA rookie Han Xu. Like Xinjiang Women’s Basketball, Han Xu went higher and lower this season and was finally selected as the WCBA All-Star starter. She is looking forward to going to America like her idol Yao Ming.

From “sleeping” to “activated” Cainiao season self-assessment 80 points

Asian Games, women’s basketball World Cup…… Han Xu didn’t join the team until the WCBA opener. At the beginning of the season, Xinjiang Women’s Basketball, which was “changed blood”, lacked running-in, and his record declined, and Han Xu’s performance was not as good as expected.

“People have high expectations for me, but I didn’t find a suitable way to play, just like falling asleep.” Han Xu said, “at the beginning of the season, the team lacked tacit understanding. There were often mistakes when the ball passed and people ran away. At that time, they thought it would be good to enter the playoffs.”

After 9 rounds of the regular season, the former Jiangsu coach Xiong Yan took over Shuai Yin, and the national team assistant joined the coaching team Murat. In the following 25 regular season matches, Xinjiang won 23 games and Han Xu was completely activated. The “two pairs” data of “20+10” has become normal.

The change of low opening and high walking made Han Xu full of confidence. She scored 80 points for her rookie season. “Xiong’s guidance is more flexible for me. Foreign Aid gave me more football rights after leaving the team, and I gradually found the feeling when I was in the national team.” Han Xu said.

It is the trend of basketball in the world that big players have three-point projection ability, but Han Xu is cautious about developing new “skill packages”, “tossing is not my focus now, it is the top priority to lay a good internal Foundation”. Throughout the regular season, the basketball aim high and the China Investment Center are the main scoring methods of Han Xu.

During the second half of the league, Han Xu “enjoyed” The treatment like a superstar and was often defended by the opponent’s bag clip, which made her feel a lot of pressure. However, for the upcoming playoffs, Han Xu has not lost his temper. “Although I am a little nervous, the team is getting smoother and smoother. We must believe that we and the team have the ability to win higher honors”.

Father Yan mother “lead the way” school basketball achievement self

Han Xu was born in a basketball family. His parents were basketball players. His father Han fashun once played for Sichuan men’s basketball. “My mother is very strict with me, but my father who rarely goes home is relatively gentle.” Han Xu said, “If my mother is not strict enough, I can’t stick to many things.”

Since I got in touch with basketball, my parents are Han Xu’s technical guidance and sparring. Almost after every game, they will explain to her. “The center of gravity is a little lower, the rebound should be held first, and the steps under the basket should be solid……” Han Xu said with a smile, “every time they are both a ‘small write ‘.”

Nowadays, whenever the Xinjiang team has a continuous home court, parents will come from Hebei to watch the match. The two knew very well that it was not easy for their daughter to enter professional basketball at the beginning, and the focus of communication after the game also changed from comments to encouragement. “I almost don’t train me now. I have praised me recently. I may think that I have entered the national team, afraid of being wrong.” Han Xu joked.

Xiong Yan has said many times that Han Xu has high understanding and deep understanding of techniques and tactics. Most of the time, he can get through a little. Han Xu believes that this is due to the Affiliated High School of Tsinghua University, his alma mater. Along the way, from basic training to mentality training, the coach gave her great help. In junior high school, she also studied in class with other classmates. Under the influence of each other, Han Xu has a good learning ability.

“The National High School League and overseas training at that time were all very valuable for me to exercise.” Han Xu said that it was also during the middle school affiliated to Tsinghua University that she was successively selected into the national character teams at all levels and was finally called into the national team by Xu Limin.

Career small goal: Landing in WNBA within 3 years

height, arm length, soft hand feeling, strong mobility, due to similar physical conditions and technical characteristics, many fans call Han Xu the “female version of Zhou Qi” and expect her to emerge in the WNBA arena. In fact, many people in the basketball industry at home and abroad are full of the same expectation for her.

Not long ago, Xinjiang Foreign aid Rolle said that if Han Xu participated in the WNBA draft, he would be selected in the top 5. “Her evaluation is better than what she received before, which shows that I have improved. I hope her prediction can come true.” Han Xu said that the recognition of foreign scouts and WNBA players has always brought her more confidence.

Although the voice of participating in the WNBA draft as soon as possible is getting higher and higher, Han Xu himself is very calm. She believes that it is good to log on to WNBA early to receive higher-level training and competition, but only after physical confrontation and psychological preparation can we go further, “The deadline I gave myself is 2 to 3 years”.

The goal is not far away, but the road in front of you still needs to go well. Han Xu recently found an English teacher to learn languages through videos, and he would follow Rolle to practice oral english during training. “Our foreign aid also has to face unfamiliar environment, language and diet, giving me some time to adapt. I think it should be no problem to go to America by myself.” Han Xu said.

When playing overseas with the national youth team, scouts once commented that Han Xu “played as soft as ‘noodle ‘”, which touched her a lot. For this reason, she has already focused on diet and strength training, but the effect is not obvious, “she will further adjust during the off-season”. The situation of light weight and lack of strength is very similar to her childhood idol Yao Ming before landing in NBA.

In the past two years, Han Xu and Yao Ming have had several exchanges. Han Xu said that Yao Ming’s self-discipline and struggle in adversity made her feel admired, “I hope that like him, I can go to WNBA to create a road and go to America to make a sky”.

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 31 (reporter Xia Zilin) volunteers from the skiing team of Beijing Winter Olympic organizing committee came to Shijia Primary School on the morning of the 31st to carry out the theme activity of “participating in Winter Olympic Games and loving China. The volunteers shared the experience of athletes with the students, taught the knowledge of the Winter Olympics competition project, and led the children to experience the winter Olympics competition project personally to welcome the Children’s Day on June 1.

Winter Olympics volunteers walked into the classroom and walked onto the platform to explain the knowledge of competition projects such as cold water jug, short track speed skating, freestyle skiing, etc, I also watched the Knowledge Introduction film of the Winter Olympics competition project produced by Beijing BOCOG with my classmates. 14 World Champions of winter sports such as Wu Dajing, the men’s 500-meter short track speed skating champion of the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, sent Children’s Day wishes to the students of Shijia Primary School through video.

Wang Bingyu, director of the cold water jug project competition of the sports department of the Beijing Winter Olympic organizing committee and the former captain of the Chinese women’s cold water jug team, said when sharing the story of athletes preparing for war: “Athletes often wear a sword for ten years. We did hard training until we won a gold medal for our country on the court. We really felt glorious and proud. The fate of each of us is closely linked with our motherland. Only by closely combining the realization of our own value with the service and dedication to our motherland can our life be more brilliant.”

Winter Olympics volunteers also brought rich and colorful ice and snow sports experience projects to students. Students in grade 6 of Shijia Primary School came to the playground and participated in winter project experience activities such as land cold water jug, cross-country ski pulley, dry land ice hockey, etc, the team members of the ski team of Beijing Winter Olympic organizing committee will give guidance on the spot.

Zhou Jiahe, a sixth-grade student of Shijia Primary School, was not very old, but he began to contact ice hockey at the age of 5 and has been selected into Beijing Youth U12 ice hockey team. He said that ice hockey is not only a sport for him, but also a spirit that enables him to “fight tenaciously for it and be fearless”.

While the Winter Olympics knowledge entered the classroom and the ice and snow sports entered the playground, several Olympic champions such as Zhao Yunlei, the champion of the Olympic badminton project, entered the library of historian primary school and participated in the Olympic story meeting, I communicated with my classmates about topics such as “the honor of the motherland is above everything” and “struggle is the most beautiful background color of youth. Zhao Yunlei said that he hoped to share his mental journey as an athlete, “bring this kind of sports spirit of not giving up and daring to challenge himself to students’ life and study, facing other challenges of life”.

It is understood that since the countdown to the Beijing Winter Olympic Games on the evening of May 10, the human resources department of the Beijing Winter Olympic organizing committee, the news and propaganda department, the Beijing Youth League Committee and other units jointly launched the ten demonstration projects of “welcoming the Winter Olympic Games” voluntary service.

China men’s basketball coach Li Nan: this is the worst game in the past two years

Xinhua News Agency, Amman, February 22 (reporter Lin Xiaowei) on the evening of February 22, local time, the Chinese team lost 62:86 away to Jordan in the sixth window of the men’s basketball World Cup qualifier in 2019. Coach Li Nan said at the post-match press conference that this was the team’s worst performance in the past two years.

Jordan led the Chinese team with 39:34 in the total rebound, of which Jordan grabbed 21 rebounds in the front court, more than 16 of the Chinese team. Li Nan believes that this makes the team encounter great difficulties. “Except Zhou Qi, we actually have no real insider.” Li Nan said that today’s game is the worst one in the past two years.

In addition, the Chinese team has been in a downwind in physical confrontation, which also makes Li Nan very dissatisfied. “In this level of competition and physical confrontation, how to play the technology is a good test for the team today.” Li Nan said that he had repeatedly reminded the players before the game, but the appearance of the game was not satisfactory, and the team had to “find their own problems”.

This round of China’s men’s basketball is mainly based on military training. The lineup was led by Zhou Qi, who just returned to China and has been fighting for a long time. He recruited new people such as Zhao Rui, Abdu salad Wood, Guo Haowen, Chen Linjian, etc, many absolute main players such as Yi Jianlian and Guo Allen were not selected. Li Nan said that the rotation of large-area personnel in the lineup was based on the objective consideration of the final sprint stage of the CBA regular season, and he also hoped to inspect more young players.

He said that the team has arrived in Jordan for 3 days, and there are no fatigue factors such as jet lag. One of the reasons for the poor game is that the training level is not enough, one is that high-level physical confrontation has put a lot of pressure on the players. “I chatted with Zhou Qi in the dressing room just now. His hands shook a little when he took the ball after fighting.” Li Nan said.

Zhou Qi scored 19 points and 10 rebounds in this game. Li Nan believes that he needs more time to knead with the team. He said that from the previous training, Zhou Qi was not in the best state, hoping to gradually recover his state through a series of competitions and to build a tacit understanding with his new teammates. “His status will get better and better as time goes by. I hope he can play better in the next game.”

Li Nan said that China’s men’s basketball level is still in the forefront of Asia. He said that in the past two years, men’s basketball adopted the benign competition mechanism of the red and blue teams, and found that more young players, such as Zhao Rui, Abdu salad Wood and Chen Linjian, had performed well, this mechanism enables more young players to play more international matches, which is a exercise for them and is conducive to the future development of the national team.

Guo Haowen, a teenager from Bayi team, was selected into the national team for the first time and appeared in the competition, becoming the first “post-00s” player to represent China’s men’s basketball, but did not score. Guo Haowen, who once led the Chinese national youth team to win the U18 Asian Youth Championship, said that he hoped to improve himself and integrate into this national team as soon as possible.

Jordan men’s basketball coach Joseph Y-CID Make UP bin is very satisfied with his team’s performance. He said that the Chinese team is a very young team, and the Jordan team showed a good level in the match with them. At the same time, the fanatical atmosphere at home in Jordan also helped the team play more confidently, it is an indispensable and important factor for today’s victory.

China will then go to the capital of Lebanon in men’s basketball to face Syria away on February 24, local time. Jordan will go to New Zealand in the last round to make the final fight for the promotion to the World Cup.

Napoli coach Ancelotti said after the game: “We have been a little backward in the attack recently, and the speed has slowed down. It is not difficult to predict and lacks organization. Generally, at this time of the season, it is difficult for the team to come up with the best state.” After this battle, the Italian team was completely wiped out in Europe. He said: “I think Juventus are still the best representative of Italian football, even though they are out of the Champions League.”

The first battle between Warriors and Blazers will be held on the 14th, and in the Western Final, Warriors star Stephen Curry and Blazers player Seth Curry, the brothers will also be their own.

In the face of the Nuggets with excellent performance at home, the pioneers in the first quarter felt just so so. Except mccorham, the rest of the players were in a low state and repeatedly lost three points. Lillard did not get one point, the Nuggets fought at home with great momentum. The starting players such as yokeki, Murray and Millsap played normally, and the first quarter outscore pioneers.

Facing the huge difference, the pioneers did not give up. Starting from the second quarter, the Blazers strengthened their defense, and the attacking side was more aggressive. They attacked the basket many times and created free throws. Lillard finally scored. In this quarter, the Blazers narrowed the score difference. The third section is that the pioneer’s offensive is unabated, and the state of mccolum is even more amazing. The differential advantage of nuggets is eroded a little bit. After mccolum scored a wonderful layup, the Blazers led 71:70, which was the first time for the Blazers in this competition.

In the last section, the balance of victory began to tilt towards the Blazers. The Blazers gradually dominated the competition. The Nuggets struggled to catch up all the way, but the hit rate dropped and dropped the chain at the last minute. In this section, Lillard, who had a poor hand feeling, scored two three-point goals to help the Blazers expand the score advantage. Mccorum, the “big heart”, also played wonderful scores many times.

Pioneer coach Stoutz said after the game: “Everyone has a downturn in the game, but for a team, it is a very luxurious thing to have both Lillard and mccolum, the two men scored in different ways. Someone feels bad, and the other person can stand up.”

Stotz said that when the big score fell behind, the team never felt hopeless. “In the face of unfavorable situation, no one in the team thinks that they will encounter failure. At this time, they must clench their teeth and make a comeback.”

The head coach of nuggets, Malone, also praised mccolum’s performance. “Mccolum’s scoring ability makes people speechless. He and Lillard are one of the best backcourt combinations in the league. This game is almost a man carrying the team forward, and we have nothing to do with him.”

The core of Nuggets jokiki was very sad about the loss of the good game, thinking that his poor performance in the last section led to the team’s defeat. However, Malone said that in the dozens of playoffs of the Nuggets, jokki’s performance was very eye-catching, and fans all over the world saw the strength of this all-round center.
