As the drums of the playoffs draw, every team in the CBA is preparing intensely, especially those that are expected to challenge for the championship. As a veteran powerhouse of the CBA, the dynamics of the Guangdong men's basketball team on the eve of the playoffs have naturally become the focus of fans. Today, Xiao Gao will give you an in-depth analysis of some recent important events and player status of the Guangdong men's basketball team.
We have to mention the potential deal for Liu Chuanxing. As the inner core of the Qingdao men's basketball team, Liu Chuanxing's height and strength are among the best in the CBA league. Recently, it has been rumored that Zhu Fangyu, general manager of the Guangdong men's basketball team, intends to obtain Liu Chuanxing's signing rights from the Qingdao men's basketball team to further strengthen the team's internal strength. Xiao Gao believes that this rumor is not groundless. Although the inside line of the Guangdong men's basketball team has a veteran like Yi Jianlian, Yi Jianlian is old after all, and his state will inevitably fluctuate, and Liu Chuanxing's arrival will undoubtedly provide more protection for the inside line of the Guangdong men's basketball team. At the same time, Liu Chuanxing's joining can also form a better echo with the outside firepower of the Guangdong men's basketball team, making the team's overall tactics more rich and diverse.
Trading is not an easy task, especially when it comes to a good player like Liu Chuanxing. The Qingdao men's basketball team will obviously not let go of its core players easily, unless the Guangdong men's basketball team can put forward enough chips. Therefore, Kogao believes that the final outcome of this potential deal will depend on the progress of negotiations and the bargaining chips of both parties.
In addition to Liu Chuanxing's trade rumors, the status of Zhou Qi, another core player of the Guangdong men's basketball team, has also attracted much attention. After his comeback in the third stage, Zhou Qi was able to contribute an average of 20+10 data per game, showing an excellent competitive state. At the same time, however, his free-throw issue has become a major concern for the team and fans. In the game, Zhou Qi missed free throws at critical moments many times, which undoubtedly became a major hidden danger for the Guangdong men's basketball team.
In response to this problem, Zhu Fangyu publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with Zhou Qi's free throws in the live broadcast, and set a goal for him to score 500 free throws every day. Xiao Gao believes that although Zhu Fangyu's approach is a bit harsh, it is very necessary. As the core player of the team, Zhou Qi's free throw shooting percentage directly affects the team's game results. And Zhu Fangyu, as the general manager, naturally hopes that the team can play at its best level in the playoffs, so his strict requirements for Zhou Qi are understandable.
Zhu Fangyu not only made verbal demands on Zhou Qi, but also personally supervised his free throw training. It is understood that Zhu Fangyu will accompany Zhou Qi to practice free throws every day, and give him guidance and encouragement in training. Xiao Gao believes that this hands-on attitude not only reflects Zhu Fangyu's sense of responsibility for the team, but also shows his care and love for the players. Under Zhu Fangyu's supervision and guidance, Zhou Qi's free throw shooting rate is expected to be significantly improved, thus laying a solid foundation for the Guangdong men's basketball team to achieve good results in the playoffs.
In addition to Liu Chuanxing and Zhou Qi, Ma Shang, a foreign aid of the Guangdong men's basketball team, has also been a hot topic recently. After leaving China, Marchand did not choose to return to China for rest and training like other foreign aids, but chose to reunite with his friend Blakeney in the United States. The two enjoyed the American nightlife together and looked very relaxed. However, the move has sparked concern among some fans.
As a professional player, Marchand's approach is indeed inappropriate. Although he said when he left China that he would return to the CBA to continue playing for the Guangdong men's basketball team, his dynamics in the United States have raised doubts about his return. After all, professional players should maintain a rigorous training regime during the offseason to maintain their physical and competitive condition. Marchand, on the other hand, chose to relax and have fun, which will undoubtedly have a certain impact on his competitive state.
Nor can we completely dismiss the possibility of Marchand's return. After all, he has played for the Guangdong men's basketball team for many seasons before and has developed a deep relationship with the team. Moreover, the attraction of the CBA league to foreign aid is also self-evident. Therefore, Xiao Gao believes that as long as Marchand can adjust his condition before returning, he may still become a trump card for the Guangdong men's basketball team in the playoffs.
The dynamics of the Guangdong men's basketball team on the eve of the playoffs can be described as colorful. From Liu Chuanxing's potential trade to Zhou Qi's free throw issue to Marchand's return doubts, every incident touches the hearts of fans. Kogao believes that as a team aiming to challenge for the championship, the Guangdong men's basketball team needs to make wise choices and decisions in these events to ensure that the team can perform at its best in the playoffs. At the same time, we also look forward to these players bringing us more wonderful moments and touching stories in the next games.
