Recently, the Guangdong men's basketball team officially announced that tang jie, a free agent, joined the team, and the two sides signed a 1-year, 5.5-month C-class contract, which means that everyone will officially see Tang Shen continue to gallop on the field in the third stage. Shortly after Guangdong's official announcement, Tang Jie also updated his social media to express his gratitude for joining the championship team.
The 22-year-old Tang Jie, before joining the CBA, had successively played for the Southern Military Region of the Chinese NBL and the Wuhan Contemporary Team, and after a period of experience in the NBL, Tang Jie, who wanted to impact the higher stage, also chose to participate in the CBA Draft in 19 years and was picked off by the Fujian men's basketball team with the 13th pick in the first round. In this team that lacks the number one position, Tang Jie was also lucky to get 20 games in the rookie season, when he averaged 3.6 points, 1.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game in 12.8 minutes of playing time, but compared with Tang Jie's performance on the court itself, he made the outside world more impressed by the "drag racing mode" that even he could not control, it is true that he does have a windy speed, but he cannot reasonably control the rhythm of the game. It also made Tang Jie miserable after Zhu Shilong was re-installed as the manager of Fujian last season.
In fact, the manager at the beginning of the Fujian season last season was the foreign coach Wu Chenic, under the command of this foreign coach, Tang Jie also got a stable playing time, successively played a good performance, at that time against the Battle of Tongxi, Tang Jie was the first double-double data of his career (13 points and 10 assists), became the main rotation of the Fujian backcourt, but in the third stage, Wu Chenic was fired by Fujian because of the team's poor record, fire-saving coach Zhu Shilong took office again, Tang Jie was also beaten into the cold palace, and then he was never able to get the opportunity to play. Throughout the season, Tang Jie averaged 6.1 points, 1.4 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game, and the three-point shooting rate reached 33.9%, which is indeed a significant improvement compared to the rookie season.
However, because he was not valued by Zhu Shilong, after the end of his rookie contract, Tang Jie was not renewed by the team, even if he went to the new army Ningbo Fubang for trial training afterwards, Tang Jie could not be valued by this new army, and once encountered the dilemma of no one caring. If he hadn't seized the National Games and successfully played an excellent performance, Tang Jie would have really disappeared into the CBA stage. Tang Jie, who represented the Hubei men's basketball team on the stage of the National Games at that time, could average 20+ points per game, which was the team's scoring king, and it was this time that shined, which made Guangdong coach Du Feng impressed him, and then invited him to Guangdong for trial training.
Because the player registration period is placed in the window period of the second stage, so in the entire second stage, Tang Jie has always been in the state of the team, and did not get the opportunity to play, and this time to officially join the team, but also hope that Tang Jie can seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not all players can be lucky to join such a team with championship background in Guangdong, as long as Tang Jie can reduce mistakes and control his speed, it should be a good chance to get a rotation position, of course, he must also be good to be Du Feng "spit fragrant" It's time to get ready.
