Early experience
Because my father fell in love with basketball
Yang Ming likes basketball because of his father. In his early years, Yang Ming was a football fan to the letter. As a Dalian native, in the late 1990s, Yang Ming also loved Dalian Wanda as much as all the fans. Every game was almost endless. He often went to the scene to watch the ball. In his spare time, Yang Ming also liked playing football. He often went home after playing all over the dirt in the dirt field.
Later, driven by his father, Yang Ming began to fall in love with basketball, because his father was also a basketball player. Because of his father, Yang Ming gradually found that his favorite sport was basketball. Moreover, Yang Ming likes the role of guard very much. This position can make him feel like a commander, who can plan, launch attacks and organize defense. Later, Yang Ming came to Shenyang to start a real professional basketball career.
16 years in business, never give up
Just arrived in Shenyang, Yang Ming was only 15 years old. As a young man, his days in the provincial sports school were hard. As soon as the joy of being selected by the professional team receded, the hardship of professional training and the loneliness and helplessness of leaving home came. In a corner without relatives or friends, young Yang Ming is always crying secretly under the quilt every night. Many years later, when talking about this experience, Yang Ming is still deeply impressed, "during that time, he cried almost every day, definitely, absolutely." Now Yang Ming, who has become a man, does not avoid his helplessness at that time. "You can't make a 15-year-old child not want to go home." He knows how to love himself when he was 15.
When I first arrived at the provincial sports school, the living conditions of the athletes certainly could not be compared with the first team of the professional team. Recalling the situation at that time, Yang Ming said: "at that time, it seemed that seven people lived in one room. Later, step by step, two people live in one room." Today, Yang Ming is the only one who is still engaged in basketball business among his first roommates. When talking about the whereabouts of his companions in those years, Yang Ming said, "all of them have been allocated." Distribution is a beautification of "elimination". Sports teams always have to go through a series of selection and adjustment. Only a small part of them can really achieve their career. "When I first went there, all the people in that room were older than me. In less than a year, all the people except me left, and another batch of people in the same bedroom changed, and I became big." In this way, in the process of "distribution" again and again, Yang Ming has been left behind, and has been going until now. Because he firmly said to himself in his heart, do not "distribute", as long as basketball.

On October 28, 2020, in the fifth round of CBA regular season, Liaoning men's basketball team beat Tianjin 119-91 and won five games in a row. After the game, Liaoning coach Yang Ming was interviewed after the game.
As for the team's five consecutive wins at the beginning of the season, Yang Ming said:
"The opponents in the first five rounds are not top teams. In fact, there are two or three periods of relaxation in every game, and the team's state fluctuates greatly. If the face of a weak team, ups and downs, can control, but encounter a strong team is difficult to reverse.
On November 6, 2020, Liaoning lost Shandong 127-128 extra time in the ninth round of CBA regular season. After the interview, Liaoning coach Yang Ming summed up the reasons for the loss. Yang Ming said that the third quarter was reversed is the biggest reason for losing.

"No matter who has been playing for 48 minutes recently, I always want to relax and try my best. Today, apart from the third quarter, I did well in other times. I can lose the ball, but I'm not happy with this way of losing. In the lead, he made a lax mistake. Later, he had a chance, but he didn't grasp it. To sum it up, winning in a row is not a good thing, failure can find some problems
Technical features
Yang Ming is the captain of Liaoning Hengye basketball club, who plays the role of guard on the court. It is characterized by high speed, impact, good passing consciousness, active defense, and high shooting rate.
Yang Ming's height of 1.93 meters is a big one in China's point guards, so he was deeply loved by Liaoning team coach Jiang Xingquan and men's basketball coach yunas. Because of his tall stature, Yang Ming feels elegant on the court. Compared with the traditional point guard, Yang Ming's breakthrough on the field is more sharp and has stronger impact. He is the best at throwing on the head of the opponent's big players, stopping jump shots, and making shots in the march outside the three-point line. Therefore, Yang Mingte, who has strong scoring ability, often plays a guest role as shooting guard. Because of strong breakthrough ability, Yang Ming's breakthrough points are often unpredictable for opponents.
In addition, in the same batch of players of Liaoning team, Yang Ming's psychological quality is very excellent. Although the score of the whole game is not high, Yang Ming often comes forward when the team needs to score most, and boldly shoots when others dare not. In defense, he also knows how to make up for his weakness with active fighting. This kind of bold European style also makes Yang Ming often suffer injuries, so that he lost a lot of opportunities to show himself in front of yunas.
