In the first stage of the CBA League, the Shandong men's basketball team changed greatly this season, the head coach was replaced by Gong Xiaobin to Xu Changsuo, and the foreign aid could not return to the team, the performance was relatively poor, and it currently ranked only 11th in the league.
However, in the window period after the end of the first stage of the league, the Shandong men's basketball team has actually been good news has not been broken, the team introduced the Chinese basketball coach Gong Luming as the head coach of the Shandong men's basketball team, and Shandong Expressway also realized that Xu Changsuo's coaching ability is relatively general, so it also invited Serbia's Leiden and Tomivić two foreign coaches as assistant coaches of the Shandong men's basketball team, and the three of them worked together to assist Xu Changsuo. Before and after the start of the second stage, these two foreign coaches will meet with shandong teams.
In this way, the Shandong men's basketball coaching team has basically completed the reinforcement. Recently, the Shandong men's basketball team also organized the first phase of the summary meeting, at which Tao Hanlin was appointed as the captain of the Shandong team and Li Jingyu as the vice captain. At 11:00 a.m. on November 16, according to Xia Xiaosi, editor-in-chief of sports news of The Sports Channel of Shandong Radio and Television Station, the Shandong men's basketball team has been training in the training base for some time in recent times, and the recovery of Jiao Hailong and Ding Yanyuhang, the two injured, is very good.
According to Xia Xiaosi, jiao Hailong's current recovery situation is expected to be able to return to play in the fifth or sixth round after the start of the second stage. In terms of foreign aid, Shandong men's basketball team's double foreign aid Hudson and Gillen Water should be able to participate in the second stage of the league normally.
Shandong team's inner core Jiao Hailong is determined to return at the beginning of the second stage, and the double foreign aid is also determined to be able to participate in the second stage of the league, and the overall strength of the Shandong men's basketball team can be said to have made a qualitative leap. You should know that last season, the Shandong men's basketball team also reached the playoff final four, and after the return of Hudson and Gillenwater, the Shandong men's basketball team was almost the same as last season, and even completed a certain degree of reinforcement.
Don't look at Hudson this year is 37 years old, but he still has oil in the tank, last season can contribute an average of 23.9 points + 6.5 rebounds + 6.3 assists per game, is still the most stable scoring point in the Shandong men's basketball team. Last season, Shandong was able to reach the playoffs because of Hudson's play.
On the side of Gironwater, the 33-year-old veteran's internal scoring ability is not bad, last season can contribute 18.6 points + 5.6 rebounds + 1 assist per game, Gillenwater is relatively strong, the internal confrontation does not suffer losses, his return gives Jiao Hailong a chance to breathe, Xu Chang locked in the employment of people is no longer so stretched.
And this season Ding Yanyuhang returned to shandong team, although Xiaoding suffered a major injury, but through the performance of the first stage, I believe the fans are still very surprised, the first stage of the league Xiaoding can get 14.2 points + 3.5 rebounds + 2 assists per game, although not as good as before the injury, but this data can also be regarded as a star. Although today's Xiaoding breakthrough is no longer sharp, the outside projection is very stable, and it is definitely a high artillery battery on the outside line of the Shandong team.
The Shandong coaching staff welcomed Gong Luming, Leyden and Tomiwich, which will be much richer in team discipline and tactical formulation. Hudson and Gironwater returned, the overall strength of the Shandong men's basketball team was greatly improved, coupled with Jiao Hailong's imminent return from injury, Xiaoding performed well in the first stage, after entering the second stage, I believe that the Shandong men's basketball team will complete the rise, and there is absolutely no problem in entering the playoffs this season.
