The all-Chinese class lineup, only Jiangsu is left.
Continuing the scandal with CBA teams are Marzan Brooks and a few others such as Marco Todorovic of Montenegro, Clarence Wilms, Hamad Haddadi, Jared Salinger, Jamal Franklin, Dominic Jones,...... All of them are thunderous names, but he—
Lin
The only Chinese foreign aid in the whole alliance, of course, can never be ignored.

Now, the Beijing men's basketball team has played 5 games, won the Liaoning Flying Leopards, Nanjing Dasheng, Jilin Siberian Tigers, lost the Zhejiang Lions, Shanxi Raptors; these 5 games, Jeremy Lin's state of ups and downs, after playing the game with Jilin Jeremy Lin updated social media, he wrote -
"I know that going into the CBA season this way is not what I thought it would be."
Many fans ask me, is Jeremy Lin okay?
Before answering this question, I'll give you a few stats from his last 3 games:
VS Zhejiang Lions: Played 20 minutes, 2 points, 1 of 7, 1 of 1 three-pointer, 0 free throws, 5 assists;
VS Shanxi Raptors: Played 29 minutes, 22 points, 6 of 16, 5 of 10 from three-point range, 7 free throws, 8 assists;
VS Jilin Siberian Tigers: Played 22 minutes, 12 points, 4 of 9 shooting, 6 of 2 three-pointers, 2 free throws, 8 assists.
With a simple interpretation, you can see that Jeremy Lin's state is rebounding and rebounding.
Against Zhejiang, Jeremy Lin was the lowest in form;
In the past, Yannis Christopoulos would habitually leave the last few minutes of the final quarter to Jeremy Lin, but this time, Jeremy Lin failed to play in the last minute of the final quarter - this is a clear signal, and now, the coaching staff trusts Jonathan Gibson's state and performance even more.
Although Beijing Duck finally lost, Jeremy Lin showed his aggressiveness and eagerness to play at the beginning;
His scoring and efficiency on the field have improved significantly.
Then, playing Jilin, winning, ending the previous two-game losing streak, Jeremy Lin clocked in early for 3 quarters to leave work.
Overall, Jeremy Lin is trying to improve his state, and his self-adjustment ability is still excellent.
But at the same time, you can also learn about his status and situation from other data:
One of Jeremy Lin's main ways to score in the 2019-2020 season is to create kills and thus go to the free throw line to score points – that season, Jeremy Lin averaged 7.7 free throws per game;
But so far this season, Jeremy Lin has only 3.6, and 2 of the last three games have had even fewer free throws.
This is a very obvious change, and you can understand the reasons for this:
On the one hand, Jeremy Lin needs to adapt to the scale of blowing penalties this season, I also said before that the important challenge of Jeremy Lin this season is to re-adapt to the scale of blowing penalties, it is clear that this season's blowing penalty scale is more relaxed, and some penalties that may have been penalties that may have been penalties are basically not blown now;
This is not what Jeremy Lin is happy to see.
When Jeremy Lin didn't get as many blows as before after breaking into the inside line, his scoring method relied more on long-range shots to complete.
As for the breakthrough, it is no longer his strong point.
Jeremy Lin's first season in Beijing, although his explosiveness and physical ability have dropped to a certain extent compared with the NBA, after all, he is a player who has experienced a large leg injury, but he can still maintain a certain advantage in the opposite position.
But this season, when Jeremy Lin experienced so many difficulties and twists and turns before the second stage, his physical condition dropped significantly compared with his first season, and this greatly affected his game status - as can be seen from the course of the game.
However, Jeremy Lin is still a very mature player, which is reflected in his reading of the game and self-adjustment.
Self-adjustment is not only his own state, but also the way he adjusts the game, the last 3 games of the data I specifically mentioned assists, he did not have a single game of assists less than 5.
These games Jeremy Lin are the focus of the opponent's bag, even so, he can still complete more assists and points, of which, he and Li Muhao + Fan Ziming's twin towers have a lot of connections, which is a reflection of his reading of the game and the adjustment of the way he plays.
Of course, there are also many things that the data cannot be intuitively represented, such as defense – this is something that the data list cannot directly reflect, but it is very important for the team.
Jeremy Lin's defense has repeatedly faced foreign aides, which continues his situation in the first season of the CBA; as a foreign aid, it is rare and rare to invest so much energy in defending and still being the focus of the opponent's defense.
And this is also an important reason why Beijing values Jeremy Lin.
"Jeremy Lin went through a lot of things before this season, he is a player who is willing to defend and puts a lot of energy into defense. He doesn't value statistics, which is rare for a player at his level. ”
Once, Yannis said of him.
Such an evaluation is not low, which shows the status and value of Jeremy Lin in Yannis's heart.
Having written so much, I would like to say that you need to look at Jeremy Lin this way —
His expectations may need to be changed and adjusted, he may not be like the kind of scoring machine that can take a lot of points per game, and in Yannis's system it is difficult to produce this type of defender foreign aid, but in many other ways, Jeremy Lin's value and role have not changed much.
In fact, why did the Beijing men's basketball team renew Gibson's contract and sign Barry Brown II after introducing Jeremy Lin? I think you already know some of the reasons after reading this tweet.
Also after playing in Jilin, Jeremy Lin also wrote-
"I constantly remind myself to remain calm and patient, so that my body and mind can adapt and adjust."
So, do you think Jeremy Lin is okay or not?
