Representing the Jordan men's basketball team in the World Preliminary Tournament, the 38-year-old Abbas once again entered the eyes of the fans. In Jordan, Abbas received attention because he was a meritorious figure who helped the Jordanian men's basketball team to win the runner-up of the Asian Championship, which set a record in team history. It also evokes memories from Chinese fans, as Abbas played in the CBA for many years and left behind a unique achievement.
In the 2009-10 season, Abbas entered the CBA as an Asian foreign aid, playing for the First Team of the Shanghai Men's Basketball Team. That season, Abbas helped the Shanghai men's basketball team to achieve a regular season record of 25 wins and 7 losses, entering the playoffs as the 4th. In the playoffs, Abbas continued to work hard to help the Shanghai men's basketball team reach the semifinals. In the 2010-11 season, Abbas moved to the Beijing men's basketball men's basketball team, allowing the former heroes who had been sinking for many years to return to the playoffs. In the following 2011-12 season, Abbas made a breakthrough in the Fujian men's basketball team and entered the playoffs.
Abbas's biggest highlight was in the 2012-13 season, when he was in the Shandong men's basketball team. Abbas helped the Shandong men's basketball team to get a proud record of 24 wins and 8 losses, and entered the playoffs as the second. In the playoffs, Abbas helped the Shandong men's basketball team eliminate the defending champion Beijing men's basketball team in the semifinals and reach the finals. Although it failed to win the championship, this is the best result of the Shandong men's basketball team in many years.
In the 2013-14 season, Abbas joined the Tianjin men's basketball team, and he once again helped the team enter the playoffs. In the 2014-15 season, Abbas changed the owner again, and he played for the Shanxi men's basketball team. That season, Abbas helped the Shanxi men's basketball team to achieve a record of 27 wins and 11 losses, and entered the playoffs as the 6th place.
Abbas helped 6 teams into the playoffs in a row, and the CBA also had the saying of "getting Abbas to get the playoffs". It's not easy to achieve this because before Abbas joined, these teams were all fish belly, and there were no shortage of bad teams that had missed the playoffs for many years. According to the CBA regulations at the time, only the bottom team could use Asian foreign aid.
The savior of the Fish Belly team is because Abbas has super ability. Although only 2.03 meters tall, Abbas is very strong, fast, tough in playing and has excellent defensive skills. Able to defend from the outside of the three-point line to the box, Abbas is an excellent defensive gate. Abbas has also done a great job of protecting rebounds, as exemplified by the nickname "Banye". In his eight seasons in the CBA, Abbas averaged fewer than 10 rebounds per game in only two seasons, but also reached 9.8 and 9.7. It's not uncommon to have 20 rebounds in a single game, with Abbas scoring up to 26 rebounds in a single game.
Best known for defending and grabbing rebounds, Abbas is not in vain on offense. In 8 seasons, Abbas averaged double-doubles in a single season, and in 6 seasons with an average of 16 points per game, the highest single-season average was 21.9 points per game. It's not uncommon for a single game to score 25 points, with Abbas scoring 46 points in a single game.
Capable and valuable, Abbas doesn't need a lot of ball rights in attack. With no-ball cuts, Abbas can kill opponents in the penalty area. After scrambling for rebounds, Abbas's secondary offensive ability is also first-class. This style of play allows Abbas to adapt to any scorer and quickly integrate into the new team. This is also the key to Abbas's ability to pick the beam in 6 consecutive teams.
Abbas's professionalism is also commendable, and he will play desperately when he enters any team. It is also because of his achievements and dedication that Abbas has become a sweet potato in the CBA, and after each season, he will be robbed. Even after leaving China because of CBA policies and age, there are still his legends in the jianghu, and his achievements will be repeatedly mentioned.
