Wang Zhelin's move to Shanghai became the biggest news in the offseason, and as one of the first additions to the trade, last year's draft champion Ou Junxuan was sent to Fujian. This is also seen as a turning point in the careers of the two, with Dawang successfully joining Shanghai, which is stronger and more financially strong, while Ou Junxuan went to Fujian, which was at the bottom of last season, and the prospects are undoubtedly overshadowed.
However, there is no absolute in the world, although Shanghai has strong financial resources to recruit for several consecutive seasons, but the effect is not ideal, two consecutive seasons have not been able to participate in the playoffs, and the marquee-like change of players and coaches has seriously affected the formation of the team's lineup playing style; and Fujian has taken an absent-minded, negative game unqualified leader, strengthening cohesion but ushering in a good opportunity for rebirth. By selling Wang Zhelin, Fujian received "part of the cash" to greatly alleviate the financial pressure, and selected Wang Yixiong with his own yuan sign, plus Ou Junxuan formed the yuan inner line combination, plus the No. 6 sign sent by Shanghai to select Li Yiyang, who was on the same level as Xu Jie, and strengthened the defender line that had been criticized by fans for a long time.
The performance of the two teams in the pre-season is ice and fire, which seems to indicate that the results of the new season may not be as expected by the fans, and the most difficult thing in Shanghai is that the players come from all over the world, and before joining, they are also the big guys who are alone in the former team, who will not be willing to play as a substitute, even if they are overseas young players with high prices, they are not willing to play. Fujian's internal relations are much easier to handle, either Fujian local players, or next door Guangdong, it is not difficult to communicate.
Shanghai lost 73-91 to Liaoning and suffered two consecutive defeats in preseason. Although the loss to Liaoning is not a shameful thing, but from the technical and tactical point of view of the performance of the game, Shanghai is completely relying on personal ability to fight alone, Li Chunjiang is still struggling to find out how to integrate this team with a strong card face. Shanghai only scored 37 points in the first half, with 20 points scored by Guo Haowen. In the first three quarters of the game, Liaoning won points, and in the fourth quarter, even if Yan Handqi brought Liu Yanyu, Wang Huadong, who rarely appeared last season, and newcomers Yu Zechen and Zhou Juncheng, Shanghai could only play with Liaoning.
Wang Zhelin only played 7 minutes in the first quarter, scoring only 2 points, 2 steals and 1 rebound. Facing a strong opponent was a good opportunity for him to show himself, but he was lazy on the field, as if to say that it was just a preseason victory and defeat suspense.
Only 2 people in the Shanghai team scored in double figures, except for Guo Haowen, who had no players shooting more than 50%, and only 2 of 18 three-pointers, the shooting rate was an unbearable 11.1%; the defensive end, especially the protective frame, was useless, and repeatedly appeared under the basket to open the middle goal and was easily scored by Liaoning no one to defend. No wonder some fans say that the tactics of Shanghai in the future are to finish playing Franklin alone, Franklin finishing Guo Haowen playing, Guo Haowen playing Wang Zhelin, Wang Zhelin playing Ren Junwei, other defensive rebounds to do a good job, and throwing the empty position into it. It's just that if it's so simple, the head coach can use Liu Peng back, and there is no need to ask Brother Chun at all.
Fujian just defeated Xinjiang, who narrowly won 1 point over Shanghai the day before yesterday, and Ou Junxuan scored 22 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks on 10 of 15 debuts. In fact, his poor performance last season is very important because Shanghai is eager to pursue results, using Dong Hanlin and Zong Zan, who are more experienced, and there is no playing time to train him. And the general tactics of shanghai are also separate battles, and no one can feed him bread. Ou Junxuan's attack is more dependent on eating cakes under the basket, and in Fujian, there is a fellow countryman Li Yiyang to deliver shells for him, and the fight will be much easier.
Other players in Fujian also performed well, Chen Linjian 23 points and 3 assists, two young players from Guangdong loan Li Yingbo 14 points and 9 rebounds, Liu Xucheng 10 points and 4 rebounds, Li Yiyang 7 points and 4 assists, Guangdong elements are getting thicker and stronger.
