14 million annual salary CBA first, but the data is the first! Hongyuan is in trouble, and you are the one who should leave the most
A quarter of the new CBA season has passed, and the top few teams in the league standings are still those strong teams, but we can find that the eleven champions who continuously shouted "Hongyuan Championship" before the start of the season are currently only ranked fifth in the league with a record of 13 wins and 4 losses.
The team is in trouble, although it is not only the responsibility of one person, but as the management does not act, Zhu Fangyu is responsible. In terms of signing foreign aid, Zhu Fangyu can be said to have made all the mistakes he can make, especially knowing that Marchand's competitive state declined rapidly after his injury, he still chose to renew Marchand Brooks with a high salary of 14 million.
How bad is Marchand this season? Let's take a look at the stats. Marchand played 17 games this season and started all of them, averaging 22.9 minutes per game, only 14 points, 5.8 rebounds and 5.4 assists, with an overall shooting rate of 43% and a pitiful 26% three-point shooting rate (the second-to-last of the team is only better than Ren Junfei), and all statistics have hit a new career low. You must know that Marchand was able to score 28.3 points in 22.7 minutes at his peak, and now his average points per game are directly cut in half, not to mention compared with other foreign aid and top local players, just by virtue of Marchand's data, whether it is efficiency or absolute value, several local players in the Hongyuan team are far stronger than him.
Maybe many fans feel that Marchand is old, "hiding and clumsy" in the regular season, "collecting and playing", and it is not impossible to exert his strength at a critical moment, but from last season's playoffs to this season's regular season, every time he encounters a strong team, when Hongyuan wants to play a high-end game, Marchand is always very stable - pulling his hips to be stable. Last season, Marchand could only be limited by Zhu Junlong, Zhang Zhenlin, the top outside defenders in the CBA, and he could still kill indiscriminately in the face of ordinary CBA players, but now he has degraded to the point where ordinary players with slightly faster feet and slightly larger size can be restricted, and he is directly prevented from death in the face of Zhu Junlong and Zhang Zhenlin. In 17 games this season, 4 of Marchand's scores are in single digits, including 0 points in a single game and 3 points in a single game.
With the league's first super high salary, the data is the first in foreign aid, now Marchand not to mention helping the team, not to become the team's cancer and burden, is already very face-giving! Xiaobian said this for a complete reason, this season Hongyuan in addition to renewing Marchand, also signed a short man with a height of less than one meter eight Outer Waters, based on the consideration of lineup matching, Xu Jie, who partnered with the big man last season, had to cooperate with Marchand, even if Xu Jie, who was good at playing without the ball, and holding the most balls, Marchand's partner, who plays the most efficient offense, is also very uncomfortable. Zhao Rui left this season, Xu Jie's average data per game did not improve greatly, because he had to cooperate with Ma Shang for a long time, and the ball was even less than last season, obviously, Xu Jie without the ball is not a high threat of playing without the ball, this Ma Shang is not only self-defeating martial arts, but also brought Xu Jie into the pit by the way, so to speak, as long as Ma Shang is still in Hongyuan, Hongyuan may not have a chance to compete for the championship!
