Super heavy body is like a sword over the roof, and its defensive shortcomings may become a fatal weakness

Yang Yi's concern for Zhang Ziyu was like a huge rock thrown into the calm lake, causing thousands of waves. This 18-year-old girl with a height of 225cm and a weight of 150 kilograms is exactly the height of Yao Ming and O'Neal's tonnage. She seems to be full of talent, but the wind direction of modern women's basketball is running towards the fast, requiring all big players to shoot, which has dug a lot of "pit" for Zhang Ziyu.

Zhang Ziyu was weight, and he was running on the court with a hill on his back. Some netizens vividly cited metaphors: "What a lot of pressure does the knee have to bear in this weight? It's like two super heavy springs installed, and it can be broken at any time." It makes sense that this huge weight is indeed a time bomb. Once the knee is injured, it will be a devastating blow. Just imagine, it would be a pity to watch a player with such outstanding height and weight, but because of a knee injury, he could only watch his teammates galloping on the sidelines.

Looking at the defense, Zhang Ziyu was even more in trouble when facing those inside lines that could project. It's like letting a warrior who is good at close combat fights against enemies who can launch missiles at a long range, and there is no way to start. Some netizens commented bluntly: "If this defense cannot keep up, no matter how strong the offense is, it will be useless. It is simply a 'living target' placed under the basket." This sounds harsh, but it also expresses the cruelty of reality. If Zhang Ziyu wants to gain a foothold in the wave of modern basketball, it is urgent to improve the defensive end.

But then again, Zhang Ziyu's talent is indeed rare. It is like an uncarved diamond. Although it has edges and corners, it may shine with dazzling light as long as it is carefully polished. Her future may be like an unknown adventure, full of difficulties and obstacles, but it also contains infinite possibilities. As long as he can overcome the difficulties of weight and defense, Zhang Ziyu may be able to write his own legend on the stage of women's basketball, so that all the doubts that were once turned into praise and amazement.
