After signing Jeremy Lin and Gibson in succession, Shougang also recently introduced a strange new face, Barry Brown, who had a scandal with Xinjiang before, but for special reasons, Xinjiang did not officially sign Brown, which also made Brown intercepted by Beijing Shougang. After coming to China for quarantine not long ago, Brown was also able to train with Shougang in the near future. Earlier, according to the official announcement of the CBA Beijing Shougang Club, the new foreign aid Barry Brown has completed registration and officially become a member of the Shougang men's basketball team.
Unlike Jeremy Lin and Gibson, who both had CBA experience, Brown was a big girl on the flower car — for the first time, Brown, who was only 26 years old this year, was 1.91 meters tall, played at Kansas State University during the NCAA period, was selected for the best defensive team in the 12 major leagues, and was named the defensive player of the year. In his junior season, Brown averaged 15.9 points, 3.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.8 steals per game, and after graduating from college, Brown also went to play in the German league. Although he has no CBA experience, according to Brown's good performance in the NCAA period, it should not be bad. And he and Gibson defense is poor, Jeremy Lin is not enough to attack the difference, it is the year of the fight, attack and defense, if you can really seize the opportunity, it is a good chance to counterattack in the third stage.
As of now, Shougang temporarily ranks eighth in the league with a record of 16 wins and 10 losses, and in the second stage they still have two games left, the opponents are Tianjin and Shenzhen, these two teams are not good stubble, sitting on the double foreign aid Tianjin, just recently beat Shougang with a 12-point advantage. If burton and Rochester really want to find the touch of the two musketeers, Shougang may really be killed by the opponent. As for Shenzhen, the two sides as early as the season when Jeremy Lin just came to the team to form a beam, every time they encounter Shenzhen, Shougang is not easy to play, the first stage when Shenzhen won 99-91 Shougang 8 points, but considering that the two sides were not neat at that time, Shougang did not have double foreign aid, Shenzhen did not have a big foreign Salinger, so it did not have any reference significance.
Just registered to face two strong teams, Yannis is not expected to immediately let Brown wear the game, should still let Jeremy Lin and Gibson play, so Brown really ushered in the debut of the new owner, I am afraid to wait until the third stage, and the big foreign aid Hamilton debuted together. However, unlike Hamilton is the only one of the four foreign aides, Brown, Gibson and Jeremy Lin will compete for posts later, Gibson if the offense can not find the feel, plus the defensive end is not improving, it is not impossible to be replaced by Brown, as for Jeremy Lin, it is true that the organization and defense still maintain a good strength, but in the ability to attack, this season, Jeremy Lin averaged only 13.2 points per game, even less than the domestic player Fan Ziming. If you are still in the doldrums on the offensive end, your backcourt core position will also be severely tested.
The three foreign aides are all backcourt players, Shougang is indeed a precedent after the new foreign aid policy, as for who can really get on the position, it depends on their performance, but as far as Jeremy Lin and Gibson have obvious advantages and disadvantages, if Brown can seize the opportunity to quickly integrate himself, it is a good chance to sit firmly in the absolute core position of the Shougang backfield after that!
