There are two highlights of tonight's game. One is that Li Liang made his first appearance in a domestic sports event on behalf of the national team.

The second is the former national team meritorious service. Wang Zhizhi's No. 14 jersey will be retired from the national team.

But the problem is, Li Liang is now wearing the No. 14 jersey and retired as soon as he put it on?

Then what size is he wearing?

In fact, since 2014, FIBA ​​has been choosing jersey numbers.

You can use numbers 0-99, no longer use numbers 12, 4-15.

For example, Wang Zhelin is now wearing the No. 31 jersey, and Li Liang is fine with No. 28.

But Li Liang still chose No. 14. He felt that No. 28 jersey was the number he used in the NBA. When he arrived at the national team, he should have his own jersey number.

Moreover, the 14th is also the number of Li Liang in the school team when he was in high school, and the number of his father in the basketball team when he was in the agricultural machinery factory.

Moreover, because he liked to watch Slam Dunk when he was a child, Mitsui Shou wore No. 14, and Li Liangcai decided to choose No. 14 as the jersey number for the national team.

As a result, after he chose the number, the national team decided to retire Wang Zhizhi's No. 14 jersey, which made Yao Ming a little embarrassed.

Li Liang's level of return to the national team is to help the poor. He didn't mention any requirements. Isn't it a bit embarrassing to wear his own number but not get it?

Yao Ming even wanted to wear his No. 13 jersey for Li Liang, but Li Liang looked down on it.

What jersey is No. 13? No. 14 is Mitsui, No. 13 is who... Tomosa Sasaoka.

This is anal and hemorrhoids. Li Liang couldn't bear it and was not interested. He wanted to wear No. 14.

After learning the news, Wang Zhizhi generously stated that his No. 14 jersey can be retired and that Li Liang can wear it.

As an international experience, Yao Ming finally came up with a solution that was the best of both worlds.

First, the No. 14 jersey needs to be retired and hung on the ceiling of the Olympic Center.

Secondly, after retiring, Wang Zhizhi can pass on the number to Li Liang by himself, which is equivalent to lending it to Li Liang to wear.

After the Olympics, the jersey was permanently sealed.

This kind of example is not without NBA.

For example, when Carl Malone joined the Lakers, Magic Johnson said that he could take down the No. 32 jersey and lend it to Malone for wearing.

There are also Celtics who have almost lost their number when the jersey is back, and the No. 18 jersey has also been backed twice.

According to the rules of retirement of jerseys, as long as they are recognized by the parties, the jersey number can be activated again.

Therefore, the ritual during the intermission is both a jersey retirement ceremony and a jersey opening ceremony.

Chairman Yao is also well versed in the ways of adapting and handles the number issue well this time.

During the intermission, the retirement ceremony of Dazhi national team was officially held.

The site was arranged simply and simply. In the center of the venue, there were two red and white two Dazhi national team's No. 14 jerseys.

The two big words "Zhi Jing" were posted on the floor, representing a tribute to Wang Zhizhi's career.

The background music of "Five-Star Red Flag" sounded, and Wang Zhizhi's national team career review short film was played on the ceiling screen.

After the music of "The Wind Chasing Boy", the former Wind Chasing Boy and Wang Zhizhi are now coming slowly amid the cheers of the audience.

Dazhi took over the microphone and talked about the three most impressive moments in his national team career. One was against France in 2000, the other was against Argentina in 1996, and the other was against Spain.

He said if time could turn around, he hoped to withdraw that foot and make a three-pointer.

Then, Gong Luming and Cheng Wanqi, seniors, all came on stage to send messages to Wang Zhizhi.

Unlike the Americans who like to be sensational, the Chinese people's farewell is always implicit and tender.

Emotions may be strong, but the way they express them is always light.

Gong Luming hopes that although Wang Zhizhi left the court as an athlete, he will not leave basketball and will continue to achieve greater achievements in basketball.

The Basketball Association and the Bayi Integrated Works Brigade awarded Wang Zhizhi the "China Basketball Outstanding Contribution Award."

Yao Ming, who is the chairman of the Basketball Association, personally presented this award to his old comrades and old opponents.

There were 16 heavy medals hanging around Wang Zhizhi's neck.

These are the achievements and honors he has achieved in his 20-year basketball career.

He joined the national team at the age of 17 and first represented the national team on the Olympic stage in 1996.

In the match against the United States, he scored 17 points against Angola and 18 points against Lithuania.

He averaged 11 points, 5 rebounds, 2 blocks and 90 free throw percentage in 8 games, ranking second among all players.

He was only 19 years old that year.

Looking at the current Chinese team, which young man can have the same level and performance as Wang Zhizhi at the age of 19?

Although his basketball journey was quite bumpy later, in many major competitions, he was still like a stabilizing force in the national team.

At the 2010 Asian Games, Yao Ming was unable to participate in the national team due to injury. It was Wang Zhizhi who always turned the tide at critical moments, killing Iran in the semi-finals to revenge the 2009 Asian Championships, and killing his old rival South Korea in the finals. Not only did he win an important gold medal, but he also made young Korean players have to serve in the military.

The big hippo in Hesheng Town was arranged to go to the army and send newspapers to the logistics department.

After the game, the whole team worshiped this veteran. He was 33 years old this year and he has played for the country for 16 years.

And the last person to appear was Li Liang.

He walked up to Wang Zhizhi and hugged the middle-aged man with the big basketball boy.

Li Liang also grew up watching Wang Zhizhi play. If Yao Ming is Li Liang's idol, Wang Zhizhi is Li Liang's NBA enlightener.

It is precisely because of Wang Zhizhi's entry into the NBA that this league truly entered the Chinese public's vision, frequently appeared in the media's sight, and eventually led to more Chinese players appearing on the NBA arena.

As a pioneer, he deserves respect and worship.

Wang Zhizhi personally handed a No. 14 Chinese team jersey with Li Liang's name to Li Liang, symbolizing a kind of inheritance.

"Come on, the Chinese team depends on you."

A very simple sentence of encouragement, but the weight is definitely not light.

Only players like Li Liang can carry this Chinese team.

Really delicious.

Finally, everyone stood up, and Wang Zhizhi's No. 14 jersey slowly took off and hung on the roof of the gymnasium.

Wang Zhizhi's favorite song, Li Zongsheng's "Hill", was heard on the scene. Wang Zhizhi, who was nearly forty, would cross the hills and see the new scenery after seeing the hills.

After a week of circling around, Wang Zhizhi left.

Another legend of Chinese basketball has come to an end.

And the new basketball legend has just begun.

In the second half of the game, Li Liang didn't want to pretend anymore and didn't want to waste time with these stupid guys.

He is wearing a No. 14 jersey, so of course he has to play the No. 14 jersey style.

In the third section, Li Liang was rarely seen. The "King of Heaven" medal lit up and entered a superb state.

Perhaps it was the inheritance ceremony of the midfield that inspired him, and Li Liang became unstoppable in the offense.

Three-pointers, breakthroughs, mid-range, fouls, frontcourt rebounds, and continuous crazy scoring.

Nigeria had no choice but to deal with Li Liang, and watched him defeat the entire Nigeria defense alone.

In this season of the Thunder, what Li Liang made the most is his one-on-one singles ability.

Before, although Li Liang had strong scoring ability, singles were not really strong.

He is better at using his teammates and using the team's tactical system to score points.

In the playoffs, the finals will rely on props to force their ability to eat alone.

In one season with the Thunder, Li Liang spent most of his time playing with substitutes, which greatly improved his ability to handle the ball without relying on the system.

He quietly became a singles master.
Chapter completed!
