As a loyal fan of the Guangdong team, I have to say that the team's defeat is inseparable from a key figure - Marchand. He played so badly in the game that it made one wonder if he was playing his own game. A situation that could have made a difference, but a lost opportunity because of his incompetence. In that day's game, Marchand's performance made people can't help but shout at him: "Wake up, Marchand!"
When it comes to Marchand's offensive performance, it is simply staggering. He seems to have forgotten that he is a scorer, and he often hits iron under the basket, as if basketball is a bottomless pit that he can't find if he throws it. The offense is slow-paced as if in a slow-motion movie, with a complete lack of impact. It's no wonder that teams are always on the wrong side of the game in terms of scoring, and the offense has lost its backbone.
Know that a successful team needs an aggressive scorer, not a player who plays iron at crucial moments. For Marchand's form, if he hadn't quickly regained his attacking touch, the team would really have to consider whether there was a better option. After all, a basketball game is not a slow board, and it is not a piece of music that allows you to perform basketball slowly.
And on the defensive end, Marchand is also making people want to cry without tears. When the opponent attacked, he seemed to be looking at the scenery, and it was a false dangling to reach out to the ball. Such a defensive attitude is simply sending the opponent an offensive red carpet. As a member of the team, the defensive end is also indispensable, but Marchand doesn't seem to understand this at all.
In contrast, Xu Jie's attitude on the defensive end appeared decisive and resolute. He is able to quickly judge the opponent's movements, give timely interference, and win more opportunities for the team. This begs the question, why not let Xu Jie stay a little longer at the critical moment? Perhaps, the team's performance will be different.
Speaking of Xu Jie, although his performance in the game was not bad, because he partnered with Ma Shang, his light was eclipsed. On the offensive end, his rhythm could have been smoother, but his performance was also stifled by the need to take into account Marchand's presence. This makes people sigh that if Xu Jie can be freed, maybe he will be the team's redeeming star.
Look at Xu Jie on the field, he is the one who can sort out the offensive context of the whole team. He has a superpower to find the best shot in a chaotic situation and make the team's offense orderly. However, it is a pity that due to the presence of Ma Shang, Xu Jie always seems to be difficult to display his full strength.
In such a situation, should we seriously think about whether we should consider taking some measures, such as warnings or simply cutting a player, such as Marchand, who has difficulty scoring on the offensive end and is unable to organize the team. The overall strength of a team trumps the individual ability of individual players, and if a player becomes the bottleneck of the entire tactical system, is it worth paying such a big price for him?
The success of the team should not be judged by the performance of individual players, and head coach Du Feng may need to rely more on Xu Jie as the main control, allowing him to play to his maximum potential on the field. If a player is always playing so badly against a strong team, shouldn't we consider making some adjustments to him to keep the whole team competitive?
However, the criticism of Marchand was not limited to his performance in the game. We can see that on the training pitch he doesn't seem to be working harder to improve his form either. Does this kind of frequent mistakes in the game rarely change on the training ground, does this mean that he is not serious enough about his career? As a professional player, in addition to the dazzling performance in the game, it should be more hard work in daily training. This may be an aspect that head coach Du Feng needs to seriously consider.
At the same time, we can't help but compare Xu Jie's professional attitude. Whether in the game or on the training court, he has shown a high level of dedication to the cause of basketball. In the team, he is the one who always motivates his teammates and gives them more confidence and support. This leadership has undoubtedly had a positive impact on the team's overall performance.
Back in the game, Marchand's performance against strong teams was really worrying. What a top team needs is players who step up when it matters most, rather than backing down in the face of pressure. Marchand's performance deprived Guangdong of some important opportunities, and his burden in the game seemed to be beyond his capabilities. This state of affairs begs the question of whether the squad should be reshuffled to give more responsibility to those who are better equipped to deal with the pressure.
When it comes to Xu Jie, his role on the field is much more than just scoring. He was able to sort out the team's offense clearly and pass the ball with ease. Under his organization, the team's overall offense was more methodical. However, with Marchand partnering, it always seemed difficult for him to bring out the best in his strength. If the head coach can adjust the lineup more flexibly, maybe we will see more potential for Xu Jie to dominate the attack.
At this time, we can't help but think about a more profound question. Shouldn't there be some tweaks to the team's tactical system so that those who can step up in crunch time can be more responsible? We can't use past honours as a barrier to keep us back. On the contrary, perhaps it is precisely because of the obsession with the glory of the past that we have been slow to spread our wings and fly in new fields.
Looking at it from another angle, for the Guangdong team, it may be time to make some bold attempts. Whether it's a tactical change or a line-up change, the manager needs to be brave enough to embrace the change. Past glory is not indicative of future success, and for fans, it is more important to the future of the team. Perhaps, it is this change that can bring new vitality to the team and rekindle the passion on the field.
So, should we evaluate Marchand's role in the team more carefully, and even consider making some difficult decisions? Perhaps this kind of questioning will cause some controversy, but it is in the controversy that we can find a breakthrough and find an opportunity for change. What the Guangdong team needs is a team that is united and hardworking, and not afraid of challenges, rather than losing the confidence of the whole team because of the performance of individual players. Perhaps, after this crucial game, what we need is to embrace change with courage and not be bound by the past.
