Chapter 276: It's not too much to make a small request, right?
On the second night of the training day, Eden had the second race of his career.
In this game, Yi Dun was directly full of confidence.
Because the opponent is the Xishan men's basketball team, the strength is not particularly strong, at least it is definitely not as strong as Guangdong.
Their big forward is not very tall, only 204 centimeters, and the most important thing is that he is still very young, only 19 years old at the moment.
Although he is young, since he can be sent by the club to participate in such a competition, he must be a seedling with very good potential, and it is estimated that he is the same as Xiao Ding of Dongshan Club.
That is, Xiao Ding is not old enough to participate in the competition now, otherwise, Dongshan will definitely put Xiao Ding in the starting lineup.
……
"If we can still lose tonight, let's just go to the next game and raise the white flag and surrender!"
"If we win this game, we have a chance to finish third, and if we lose, we won't get anything!"
"If we lose to Guangdong, we can still find an excuse, because the other party has Yi Jianlian, but if we lose tonight, what other excuse can we have?" Gong Xiaobin shouted at all the players before he appeared on the stage.
Yi Dun is still quite relaxed, tonight's opponent is relatively weak, the possibility of losing is not very large, if he really loses, then as Gong Xiaobin said, there is no excuse and reason at all.
……
Cao Zhenhua still started this game, and Yi Dun sat on the bench and chatted with Fan Zhiyi next to him.
Although Yi Dun performed well in the game the night before yesterday, Gong Xiaobin still has no intention of putting Yi Dun in the starting lineup for the time being.
The main thing is that Yi Dun is worried about picking on the child halfway, in case Yi Dun thinks that basketball is boring and runs away directly, then Gong Xiaobin will find someone to reason with.
Therefore, this starting lineup, Gong Xiaobin will definitely not change it until the last resort.
Eden can play, can give plenty of playing time, but just can't start.
Yi Dun on the bench doesn't care about whether he starts or not, the only thing he cares about is his performance and whether he can get into the eyes of the National Basketball Association.
Entering the national team is the ultimate goal of EDUN, and he will start in the Dongshan team? Eden didn't care about it at all.
……
Cao Zhenhua's performance tonight is still quite good, because the opponent's strength is relatively weak, Cao Zhenhua is quite a bit of a kill, and his presence on the field is full.
But what the fans at the scene want to see is obviously not this, there must be at least half of the audience, and they spend money to buy tickets to enter the stadium in order to see Yi Dun......
Now Yi Dun is pressed on the bench, what is this called? Half of the audience said they were very dissatisfied.
"Upper Easy!"
"Upper Easy!"
The fans shouted in the direction of Gong Xiaobin again.
Gong Xiaobin couldn't laugh or cry, he had been coaching Dongshan Club for some years, but there had never been such a thing as fans shouting at a certain player before.
Now Eden has only played two games, and the results have come twice.
"Doot toot!" Gong Xiaobin called a timeout here, apparently preparing to meet the fans' requirements and put Yi Dun on the field.
Yi Dun was happy in his heart, it seems that his fame is also beneficial.
If you are a nobody, there must be no such treatment......
It's just that I feel a little sorry for this Cao Zhenhua, who played well on the field, and was directly replaced.
Yi Dun looked at Cao Zhenhua apologetically, but Cao Zhenhua smiled and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about it.
……
The timeout ended, and both sides returned to the pitch.
Yi Dun was completely powerful, and the grievances of the night before were all made up for tonight.
The strength of the big forward of the Xishan team is okay, but it is really too bad compared to Yi Jianlian.
In addition, he is not very tall, so there is no way to receive a high lob at Yi Dun's height, and he can still have some sense of presence when he has just faced Cao Zhenhua.
After Yi Dun took over now, he directly became an air man on the field.
The offense was completely limited by Yi Dun, and the rebounds were completely unable to grab Yi Dun.
Thankfully, the first quarter was almost over, otherwise the young player would have to cast a shadow on Eden.
If you want to say how strong Yi Dun is on the field, in fact, it is really impossible to see it at all.
During the debut time, I didn't touch the ball a few times at all, let alone a one-stop windmill dunk.
The only chance to touch the ball was the moment when Yi Dun grabbed the rebound, but after Yi Dun grabbed the rebound, it was immediately like getting a hot yam, and it was passed out as soon as possible.
So maybe after a game is played, Yi Dun's touch time will add up to about a minute.
But such a strange way of playing even triggered the crazy cheers of the fans at the scene.
Those who don't know how to do it, they themselves are specially entering the field to see Yi Dun, as long as Yi Dun is present, they have no reason not to cheer.
These people are all die-hard fans of Eden.
And those who know how to do it are naturally very clear about the role of Yi Dun for the Dongshan team, and his rebounding guarantee makes the Dongshan team's outside shots more decisive.
At the end of the first half of the game, the Dongshan team had already taken a huge lead, and from the perspective of the situation, the Xishan team was not Dongshan's opponent at all.
In the second half of the game, Yi Dun basically didn't play much, and it was only when the audience was frantically chanting Yi Dun that Gong Xiaobin symbolically put Yi Dun up to play for a while.
By the time the game was over, Eden had about the same amount of playing time in this game as he had been on the field.
In terms of statistics, it was almost the same as the last game, except that Eden broke through 20 rebounds tonight.
0 points, 20 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, and the number of fouls and turnovers are also zero, which means that there are three more rebounds than when they played against Yi Jianlian the night before.
There is a reason for this strange situation.
Needless to say, Yi Dun never shot from beginning to end, plus he didn't touch the ball much, and the opponent didn't send him to the free throw line, so naturally he didn't score a point.
The reason for the zero assists is also very simple, after Yi Dun grabbed the rebound, he passed the ball nearby, and did not deliberately pass to the main offensive point.
But even so, Yi Dun didn't get any assists, which is actually strange enough.
In two games in a row, Eden contributed two bizarre stats that left fans speechless.
If you have one, it can be said to be an accident, but two games cannot be explained by an accident.
The data of the two games immediately reminded fans of a person.
Dennis Rodman, nicknamed "Flower Big Bug", is an NBA player with a strong personality, and his lifelong hobbies are dyeing his hair and tattoos, grabbing rebounds, playing holes, fighting, and playing with women.
Of course, not many people think that Yi Dun's rebounding ability can play to the level of Rodman, after all, Rodman has won seven rebounding titles in the NBA.
However, although the strength is definitely not as good as Rodman, this style of play is the same as Rodman, all of them are rebounding monsters who only have rebounds in their eyes.
This makes fans look forward to it in their hearts, does it mean that we are going to have a rebounding monster like Rodman in China?!
There are three great walls and the rising star Yi Jianlian in China, but these four people do not have a rebounding monster, if Yi Dun can really rise, it can be regarded as filling the vacancy of China's rebounding monster.
……
At the moment, Yi Dun thinks so much, and he doesn't even know who Rodman is.
After this game against Xishan, Dongshan qualified for the third-place match, and they will face Liaoning next.
This game is also the last game of the National Games, and if nothing else, it may not be possible for Yiden to have a chance to go on the basketball court again in the next few months.
So the fans cherish this opportunity, after all, it's hard to say whether they can see Yi Dun on the basketball court in the future.
Maybe Yi Dun suddenly lost interest in basketball and never played again.
The Dongshan Basketball Association only hates that there are too few seats in the basketball hall now, and if tonight's third-place game can be played in the stadium of 50,000 or 60,000 people, it will definitely make a lot of money.
The scalper ticket outside has been fried to 500 yuan a piece, which is still the most remote location, if it is a good location, it has been fried to thousands!
If you can sell him 50,000 or 60,000 tickets, it will definitely be blood money.
Of course, there is no basketball stadium on this earth that can accommodate 50,000 or 60,000 people......
After all, basketball is not football, and if the field is too small and too far away, you can't see anything at all, so it is impossible to have such a large basketball stadium at all.
But if there really is, with Yi Dun's current popularity, it is estimated that it will definitely be able to fill the seat.
In these games, Yi Dun's strength is secondary in the eyes of the Basketball Association, and what really makes them feel the most valuable is Yi Dun's popularity.
Now the Basketball Association is having a headache if to promote the CBA.
Since the establishment of CBA in 1995, the development has been extremely slow, and for more than ten years, there has been no significant improvement in the attendance rate of the scene.
Originally, Yao Ming mixed up in the NBA a few years ago, and the Basketball Association thought that as the domestic basketball atmosphere became better and better, the attendance rate of the CBA would be significantly improved.
I didn't want to improve, and there were indeed some improvements, but the magnitude was pitiful.
Yi Dun, who suddenly appeared now, suddenly made them feel that they had grasped a life-saving straw.
In the previous two games, all the tickets were sold out, why? It's not because of Eden's popularity.
If Yi Dun plays in the CBA league in the future, it is estimated that this phenomenon will definitely occur.
The Basketball Association instantly felt that they had found the thighs to improve attendance, as long as they hugged Yi Dun tightly, what else did they worry about the attendance?
What they should be worried about is how to move to a bigger arena to accommodate more spectators.
Yi Dun obviously didn't expect that he came to play basketball to hug his thighs, but it turned out to be thighs......
But if Yi Dun knew that the basketball association regarded himself as a thigh, then he would be very happy.
With your own thighs, it's not too much to make a small request from the Basketball Association, right?
When playing the Asian Cup or Asian Championships, bring yourself with you, and you don't ask for any playing time, as long as you can join the team.
It is expected that this kind of small request, basketball will definitely not refuse.
