Guo Allen Niu X!
Our former No. 1 point guard in China was once really favored by NBA teams, albeit on non-guaranteed contracts.
The specific time should be 2016.
Because the Chinese men's basketball team and the American men's basketball team had several games back then.
And Guo Allen, who played in the game, left a deep impression on many people with his galloping style of play, as well as gorgeous offensive skills and control skills.
Let's put it this way, when Allen Guo runs, a large group of NBA stars can't hold it back, so they can only follow his rhythm.
The U.S. men's basketball team's defensive stunt is tight and stealing, which is useless to Guo Allen.
Coupled with the 2016 Rio Olympics, Guo Allen's performance was remarkable, averaging 10.2 points and 4.8 assists per game, and his ability to break through the basket and his fearless temperament made people can't help but give a thumbs up.
In short, anyone who watched Allen Guo's game at that time was hard not to be impressed by the point guard from China, so as mentioned above, it is not unusual for an NBA team to be willing to scratch a lottery ticket on him.
It is worth mentioning that in 2019, Guo Allen finally played in the NBA Summer League, but as a Chinese men's basketball player, he averaged 15.7 points, 3.7 assists and 2.3 boards per game, while still attracting a lot of attention from the American media.
It's a pity that the 19 NBA Summer League has become the stage where Guo Allen can finally shine on the world stage, and in the next few years due to various reasons, he either can't play or is affected by injuries, and last year he missed the World Cup and the Asian Games two international competitions in succession.
Of course, it is undeniable that Guo Allen's national team career is also more controversial, and his "inefficiency" and "independence" are mentioned the most.
No one is perfect, but I believe that everyone can clearly feel how indispensable Guo Allen is through the Chinese men's basketball team in the past two years.
We need players who can tear apart opposition defences and take responsibility when it matters most, and they are often half angels and half devils.
I still clearly remember that Guo Allen in the 21 World Preliminaries, like crossing the road in the early morning, casually chased and intercepted various breakthrough layups by Japanese players, and scored 38 points in the two games without sweating, all of which conquered other fans.
Compared with the Asian preliminaries of the Chinese men's basketball team some time ago, only Hu Mingxuan was the only one in the guard who could really pose a threat to the Japanese men's basketball team's defense, but the effect was still far inferior to the previous Guo Allen.
Everyone may have to recognize a reality, that is, the Chinese men's basketball team will not have such a good breakthrough knife as Guo Allen for many years in the future, at least at present, local young players cannot find a successor similar to the former, unless it is naturalized.
I have experienced many times, but I always miss the good of the old people after I lose it.
Will Allen Guo be the last player to do this? Definitely not, there will always be the next one.
"The greatest historical lesson of mankind is that it can never remember the lessons of history. ”
Guo Allen, who is only 30 years old, has quietly come to an end in his national team career, and even his career is in jeopardy.
This guy has only played 3 games in the regular season this season and has not returned from injury so far, but Liaoning is still the top seed team and the biggest favorite to win the championship.
It is necessary to remind Guo Allen that this year is a contract year, and if he proposes a trade again, maybe the Liaoning team will deal with it in a completely different way than insisting on locking people with the maximum salary in 22.
The value of players comes from their own strength and contribution, and feelings are tasteless as a product of good times!
