Hello everyone! Welcome to Bearded Sports! In this episode, we will pay attention to Zhou Peng and pay attention to Zhou Peng's latest voice on leaving the team. It is undeniable that compared with previous years, this summer's transfer market can be described as unprecedentedly lively. In particular, a number of big-name stars have also reported transfers this summer. Like Guo Allen, when the player registration window was just opened, he could not wait to release the news that he had submitted a transfer application to the Liaoning men's basketball team through his own agency.
But given the current system of the CBA, It is actually very difficult for Guo Allen to leave. Although Guo Allen himself made a lot of noise, it was still a lot of wind and rain, and there was no substantial progress.
But Wanwan did not expect that just when the fans were focusing their attention on Guo Allen alone, Guangdong Hongyuan officially announced a blockbuster deal. As the captain of Guangdong Hongyuan, playing for Guangdong Hongyuan for 16 seasons and helping the team win 8 championship trophies, Zhou Peng officially settled in the Shenzhen men's basketball team.
To be honest, Zhou Peng's departure from the team really surprised all fans. After Yi Jianlian drastically reduced his playing time due to injury, Zhou Peng has long since become the Dinghai God needle of Guangdong Hongyuan. Whether on or off the field, Zhou Peng has played a pivotal role in this Guangdong Hongyuan team.
Therefore, in the hearts of fans, Zhou Peng must end his career in Guangdong Hongyuan.
After Zhou Peng's unexpected departure from the team, in fact, there are two voices in the outside world. One is to blame Guangdong Hongyuan, after all, according to the existing regulations of the CBA, as long as Guangdong Hongyuan offers Zhou Peng a large contract with a maximum salary, Zhou Peng will not be able to go anywhere.
On the contrary, another voice is accusing Zhou Peng of cultivating his club for so many years in order to pursue the top salary. After all, in the past 3 years of the epidemic, Guangdong Hongyuan has also been unable to make ends meet, losing money year after year. As a veteran of so many years, Zhou Peng should spend time with the team. Nowadays, the second sound has gradually gained the upper hand.
But is that really the case? Did Zhou Peng really choose to leave because Guangdong Hongyuan could not provide him with a large contract with a maximum salary? Fortunately, in this regard, Zhou Peng also opened the live broadcast at 20:00 in the evening, mercilessly exposing the real reason why he was forced to leave the team, which had nothing to do with salary.
Zhou Peng said in the live broadcast: "After the end of last season, we negotiated with Guangdong Hongyuan on the renewal of the contract, but the differences between the two sides are very large and cannot reach an agreement. The salary is only on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is still when it comes to playing. I felt like I could still play, so I chose to leave. Going to the Shenzhen men's basketball team is not for the maximum salary, and I and the Shenzhen men's basketball team are not signing the maximum salary contract. It's a 2+1 contract, with the third year being the team option. ”
As for Zhou Peng's statement, it was actually confirmed by Zhu Fangyu. Zhu Fangyu made it clear that next season the team will give young players a lot of playing time. As a veteran, Zhou Peng must make sacrifices if he wants to stay in the team.
It is undeniable that after learning of this reason, fans have also accused Guangdong Hongyuan of being too cruel. Guangdong Hongyuan's approach is doomed to fail to make a player loyal to a team. You know, in Zhou Peng's current state, the next two to three years will definitely remain one of the top small forwards in the CBA.
But then again, back to the history of Guangdong Hongyuan, to be honest, this may also be the reason why Guangdong Hongyuan has been able to maintain a high level for so many years. Like Zhu Fangyu, Du Feng and Wang Shipeng at that time, they all chose to retire early. Therefore, from the perspective of the club, letting Zhou Peng leave may also be forced to be helpless. I hope that the breakup of the two sides will also be the most complete choice.
