In the CBA game a few days ago, Tianjin team head coach Zhang Degui guided the side, a familiar figure appeared in front of our eyes, although this person has been retired for many years, but the years do not seem to leave too much wind and frost on him. The same is true when the team is behind, encouraging the players, and boosting morale, even eager to take off their suits and play. He is a regular visitor to the national team, and Zhang Qingpeng, one of the few domestic players known for his three-point shots.
At his peak, he was also the strongest player in the whole country, and in his nineteen-year career, he achieved a legend. However, his feud with Liao Basket had also been boiling over. So today, let's take a look at this controversial event of that year.
If you talk about Zhang Qingpeng's career, then it has to be mentioned that his performance in the Liaoning team, even if he later won the dream of the Beijing team and got a very decent retirement ceremony in the Shandong team, but the peak period of his career was undoubtedly in the Liaoning team. In the 01-02 season, Zhang Qingpeng, who was only 20 years old at the time, was promoted to the first team by then coach Wu Qinglong, but he, like most players, played as a substitute.
One of the starting defenders that year, in addition to Li Xiaoyong, was Guo Shiqiang, who later got into a fight with Zhang Qingpeng. At that time, Guo Shiqiang's coaching was full of spirit, and at the age of 26, he had already experienced the baptism of the Sydney Olympic Games, and his career had improved by leaps and bounds like the achievements of the Liaoning team in those years. In his spare time, he also noticed Zhang Qingpeng, a little brother, and their relationship with the same players was really quite good. However, that season was not good for the Liaoning team, and they finally played a relegation match before staying in the top league. After Panpan Group injected funds into the team, the team's condition has improved to a certain extent, and Zhang Qingpeng has also grown up during this turbulent period, and in the 03-04 season, zhang Qingpeng also stood out in the relegation match.
With an average of 20.5 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists per game, liaoning was once again thrillingly relegated, and it was this outstanding performance that laid the foundation for his future performance in Liaoning.
The 04-05 season meant the beginning of change for the Liaoning team at that time, when Guo Shiqiang, who had just turned 30, unexpectedly chose to retire at such a golden age, and the 64-year-old legendary Coach of Chinese basketball, Jiang Xingquan, returned to Liaoning to take charge of Shuaiyin. It was when Big Brother retired and Mr. Jiang took charge of the team again, and Zhang Qingpeng began to take off in his career.
In the 05-06 season, he played in 33 games, averaging 14.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game, and his three-point shooting became more stable. That year, he also helped the team reach the playoffs in a row. The Liaoning team also returned to the ranks of strong teams during this time. And it was also the summer at the end of that season, due to the intensification of the contradiction between Jiang Xingquan's guidance and the Liaoning team, so he left in anger, and the selection of the liaoning team's coaching position this time was Guo Shiqiang's guidance.
Under the leadership of the young marshal, a new generation of Liaoning teams led by Zhang Qingpeng began to grow, and they created the myth of 15 home unbeaten games in the regular season in the 06-07 season, and lianke Bayi, Guangdong, Jiangsu and other strong teams, and finally ranked fourth in the league. Zhang Qingpeng has also become an important task under the hands of the former big brother, and the average per game is still stable to hand over 14+4+5, and constantly strengthen the defense, and the performance is very outstanding.
In the 07-08 season, the Liaoning team reached the finals again after 8 years, but in the face of the Guangdong Hongyuan team led by Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu and Du Feng, they were still invincible, but such a performance was greatly unexpected by many people, and Zhang Qingpeng entered the twelve-man roster of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games with a strong three-pointer and a big heart at a critical moment, witnessing the historic moment when the Chinese men's basketball team once again approached the top eight of the Olympic Games.
However, the ensuing 08-09 season, for Zhang Qingpeng, it means mixed feelings, his average data per game increased to 18+4+5, in addition to being able to contribute 2 steals per game, personal career came to the peak, but Liaoning's record has a huge decline, the end of the season only ranked twelfth, missed the playoffs.
The 09-10 season is the peak of Zhang Qingpeng's career, averaging 21.1 points per game, shooting 50.7% from the field, shooting 47.3% from three-point range, especially once he opens his hand, it is almost unstoppable, and he has been known as "Zhang San Crazy". That year he also helped the team return to the playoffs, arguably ushering in the most brilliant moment. However, it was also from this moment that Zhang Qingpeng's career ushered in a turning point, and after spending an unpleasant season on loan to Xinjiang, he returned to Liaoning. But here everything is different, the new batch of players on the team has grown up, and the former top players have to give way to the younger people. Not reused, coupled with the team's record is quite bad, Zhang Qingpeng chose to communicate with Guo Shiqiang about the development of the team and gave his own suggestions.
However, Guo Shiqiang did not take advice, and Zhang Qingpeng could not bear it, and a fierce quarrel broke out, which was once reported by major media. The Liaoning team's solution is also meaningful, they sent Guo Shiqiang to study abroad, while Zhang Qingpeng left the team at the end of the season and never took the initiative to mention his Liaoning career again.
Later in the story we all know, Zhang Qingpeng in beijing and Shandong team has achieved a certain degree of success, when the Beijing team won the championship, he also played a great role, when he was also publicly praised by Marbury as "one of the best defenders in China".
At the end of his career, when he came to Shandong, he was also able to play for the team with accurate three-pointers, and even at the age of 38, he was still able to score 37 points in the playoffs, which was shocking. However, whenever he mentions the grudge between him and Guo Shiqiang and the Liaoning team, it will always make people sigh.
