On February 23, Beijing Shougang men's basketball team officially announced the official return of foreign aid Hamilton, and has completed the registration and publicity procedure on the official website of the CBA, counting that this is already the fourth foreign aid that Beijing Shougang has at the same time, compared to many teams only single foreign aid, and even the whole Chinese class to play, I have to say that Beijing Shougang men's basketball team is really too arrogant!
Beijing Shougang men's basketball team has money is willful.
Although Beijing Shougang has not made much of a shot in terms of internal invocation this season, it does not mean that they do not attach importance to internal assistance, and last season's heavy signing of Fan Ziming, Li Muhao, Raymond and other big-name players has strengthened the shortcomings of the local interior line.
So this season, Beijing Shougang will focus on the reinforcement work on foreign aid, but at this time Beijing Shougang encountered no small trouble: affected by the epidemic, the income of clubs has dropped sharply, the CBA league has also lowered the salary cap for the 21-22 season, the maximum salary cap for domestic players has been reduced from 8 million yuan to 6 million yuan, and the salary cap of foreign aid of a single team has been reduced from $7 million to $5 million.
The "salary restriction order" requires the team to introduce foreign aid at a lower salary, saving the team's expenses and getting the support of most teams, but objectively it also increases the difficulty of reinforcements, after all, as a player, a salary cut is not a pleasant thing.
Beijing Shougang was also affected by the "salary restriction order", and it is rumored that when contacting foreign aid Jeremy Lin at the beginning of the season, the annual salary request put forward by the other party almost used up all the salary space of foreign aid, and the negotiations were temporarily deadlocked. After repeated communication, in the end, Jeremy Lin made some concessions, the Beijing team successfully signed Jeremy Lin and another foreign aid Gibson, And the problem of Beijing Shougang's reinforcements was solved more satisfactorily, and the price may be that there is little space left for foreign aid salaries.
Just when the outside world thought that the work of Beijing Shougang's external introduction was over, the team management made a surprising move. Because the team's performance did not meet expectations, Beijing Shougang signed the third foreign assistant Barry Brown in the second stage of the regular season! In this way, Beijing Shougang and its brother Beijing Beikong in the same city also led the list of foreign aid in the alliance with 3 foreign aides.
And now, Beijing Shougang has signed the fourth foreign aid Hamilton again! In terms of the number of foreign aid, it is believed that the excess adjustment fee must not be underpaid, but this money is not a matter at all in front of the arrogant Beijing Shougang team. People have to sigh: it's good to have money!
Many teams are bitter haha.
For other teams, the impact of funding is great. In addition to the 3 foreign aides of the North Control team, most of the other teams are currently 2 foreign aides, even the "new local tycoon" Shanghai team, which was once rumored to introduce multiple foreign aides, is no exception.
There are four teams with single foreign aid: Fujian and Tongxi, due to their bottom performance, should have taken a stop loss and did not want to play another wave in terms of foreign invocation; Jilin really had no money, and single foreign aid used for two seasons; the "former local tycoon" Xinjiang team seems to have lost its former arrogance.
I hope not to follow in the footsteps of the national football team.
Beijing Shougang's large-scale investment is certainly enviable, but unfortunately, the invested funds are not the benefits brought by the normal operation of the club, but too much dependence on the free assistance of major shareholders, which is not a long-term solution, once the major shareholders reduce investment, it may bring a devastating blow to the team. A similar situation has already occurred in the football league, and I hope that Beijing Shougang will not follow in the footsteps of the national football team.
At present, the CBA league is still growing, and the vast majority of clubs are not yet mature in operation, and they cannot really bear their own profits and losses. I hope that Beijing Shougang will not only take the lead in terms of large investment, but also play a leading role in the professionalization of the club, so that our CBA league will become better and better!
How do you see beijing Shougang's arrogance? Is it expected to reach the top this season? Welcome to high opinions.
