The Qingdao men's basketball team finished seventh in the league in the regular season this season, but was swept out by the Guangzhou men's basketball team in the first round of the playoffs, which made head coach Liu Weiwei very uncomfortable. After being eliminated by the Guangzhou men's basketball team, all the players of the Qingdao men's basketball team burst into tears when they returned to rest, and Liu Weiwei said that he would continue to improve this summer and play back next year. In a previous interview, Liu Weiwei said that he would introduce a big foreign aid in the offseason to further enrich the team's tactical play, and as for the two small foreign players Moody and Powell, Liu Weiwei is likely to make a choice.
After the end of this season, Powell also sent an affectionate farewell, saying that the Qingdao men's basketball team has become his second home, and he is very eager to continue to play in the Qingdao men's basketball team. Judging from Powell's performance in the regular season and playoffs this season, it is completely the strength of the CBA's top small foreign aids, coupled with the fact that there are fewer and fewer high-quality foreign players in the CBA free market, Liu Weiwei will definitely leave Powell, a super scorer. This season, the reason why the Qingdao men's basketball team lost in the playoffs is mainly because the players have little experience in the playoffs, Yang Hansen is not enough to support the team's interior line, and the performance of the small foreign aid Powell is impeccable, averaging 26.5 points, 8.5 rebounds and 9 assists per game in the playoffs.
In the regular season this season, Powell played a total of 46 games for the Qingdao men's basketball team, averaging 29.7 minutes per game, contributing 25.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, 6.3 assists and 1.3 steals, shooting 44.6% from the field, 35.5% from three-point range, and hitting 3 three-pointers per game. From the perspective of personal play, Powell's personal finishing ability is very good, he can help the team out of the predicament through personal offense at critical moments, and can also revitalize the team's offense, with a strong desire to win, and strong execution on the field, and he is a very dedicated foreign aid.
With the lineup configuration and hard work of the Qingdao men's basketball team, it can make a comeback next season, Liu Weiwei only needs to introduce a high-quality foreign aid, which can reduce the pressure on Yang Hansen on the inside, and Powell leads the whole team on the outside, so that the lineup of the Qingdao men's basketball team does not have any shortcomings, and it is not easy to be targeted by opponents in the playoffs, so that they can better play their strength.
