Gao Shiyan wants to find his "happy basketball" feeling, even if his performance in the second stage has fluctuated greatly, but this is also because he has suffered from injuries and the impact of illness. By the third stage, Gao Shiyan will definitely be able to adjust his state back. Coupled with the return of Ding Yanyuhang and Jiao Hailong, the overall strength of the Shandong team has also undergone a qualitative change, and it seems that the Shandong team is going to rise to the rhythm! However, can Xu Changsuo really grasp this rare opportunity? Let's take a look at it with the basketball brother!
Shandong's record has slipped sharply
I believe everyone also knows that the performance of Shandong team in the current season can be said to be very different from last season. The main reason was the departure of Gong Xiaobin, the King of Qiaoyao, and the position of commander was taken over by Xu Changsuo, one of the original Five Tigers of Shandong. But this season they are 11th in the CBA league with a record of 14 wins and 13 losses. Today, they are arguably just one step away from falling out of the playoffs! Because they are three games away from the thirteenth-ranked Xinjiang team, don't look at the current regular season with 11 rounds left, but many teams outside the playoffs have the qualification to impact the playoffs.
Gong Luming was in danger
Among them are Xinjiang, Tianjin, Sichuan and Qingdao and other strong teams, in the next eleven rounds of competition, they will inevitably fight to their limits, which will allow them to play a stronger strength. If Xu Changsuo still can't adjust the team's sluggish state, then Shandong may really fall out of the playoff lineup. If this really happens, not only will Xu Changsuo's position of marshal be dangerous, but even Gong Luming's position as head coach and general manager will become precarious! But if you want to prevent this situation, in addition to making a certain breakthrough in tactics, you also need their main players to be able to play smoothly in the game!
There are problems with the state of Shandong's main players
But here, some fans may ask, how can the main players of the Shandong team not be in the state? Haven't they played like this all the time? However, when the basketball brothers carefully checked the data, they found that the playing status of their main players had undergone obvious changes, mainly concentrated on the two core main players of Tao Hanlin and Gao Shiyan. Their performance in the second stage is also too ups and downs, when they play well, their single game score can even exceed 25 points, and when their performance is sluggish, their score becomes single digits, but in a press conference, Gao Shiyan told the truth!
Injuries have become Shandong's biggest roadblock
The main reason for his sluggish performance is due to the dual impact of injury and illness, which also leads to his original strength not being able to play at all. But since Gao Shiyan had this situation, Tao Hanlin would definitely have a similar problem. Not to mention that his playing time in many games is more than 30 minutes, so high intensity for a long time to continue to play, Tao Hanlin must also have a lot of injury hidden dangers, otherwise his play can not have such a big change, it seems that Xu Changsuo is really to reasonably arrange the main players to play time, if Tao Hanlin is off again due to injury, then shandong team will be really cold, because they are already nailed down from the playoffs!
Shandong will be full of blood again
However, if Gao Shiyan can adjust his state, their external firepower output shortcomings will also be alleviated from the root. As he himself said, he also hopes to find a sense of enjoying happy basketball through the adjustment of the next stage. But if you want to do this, there must be a premise, that is, to win. Moreover, according to the basketball brother's recent review of the latest injury report released by the CBA official, at most another week, Ding Yanyuhang and Jiao Hailong will inevitably recover from injuries, and there is still nearly a month offseason in the future, so long that it is enough for the two of them to return to a full blood state again.
Xu Changsuo's opportunity came
This also allows the overall lineup strength of the Shandong team to return to full of blood again, and the key is to see whether Xu Changsuo can completely stimulate the due strength of this lineup. You know, the next 11 rounds of regular season competition will become more intense. Because it's also the only chance for many teams to do another miracle. As a result, they will inevitably inspire their full strength in future games, especially the 8 teams outside the playoffs, and they will inevitably want to return to the playoffs! Even if they can't make it to the playoffs, they still have to draw a satisfactory end to their journey in the current season, which makes Shandong face a real test.
Will Shandong fall out of the playoffs?
However, judging from Xu Changsuo's tactical arrangements and employment characteristics in recent matches, he will inevitably be the main players in the team. And when Ding Yanyuhang and Jiao Hailong returned to the team, it only made the existing rotation lineup of the Shandong team become deeper. As for Ma Xinxin and Liu Yi, the two young players, it is obviously difficult for them to get more opportunities to play, not to mention that the next 11 rounds of the regular season are still their last chance! But if Xu Changsuo really plays like this, the basketball brother can conclude that the Shandong team will have a great chance of falling out of the playoffs! What do you think about that?
