With the fierce battle in the CBA league in full swing, the future lineup planning of the Guangdong men's basketball team has become the focus of fansRecently, there has been a lot of discussion about the departure of the team's foreign player Waters. Zhu Fangyu, general manager of the Guangdong men's basketball team, said in an interview that whether Waters will return to the team still needs to wait for the evaluation results of head coach Du Feng, which undoubtedly casts a layer of fog over Waters' return prospects.
As an important reinforcement of the Guangdong men's basketball team last season, Waters' performance has been in the spotlight. However, in this season's games, Waters did not seem to be playing as expected, and it seemed out of place with the team's tactical system. At critical moments, Waters was even abandoned by head coach Du Feng several times, which undoubtedly made fans doubt his future in the team
Zhu Fangyu admitted in the interview that although Waters' performance in the CBA league has some bright spots, there are also many problems. In particular, his height, reach, and style of play are quite different from the penalty rules of the CBA league, which makes it difficult for Waters to play to his strengths in the gameIn addition, the degree of understanding between Waters and the rest of the team needs to be improved, especially when he is on the field at the same time as the core player Xu Jie, and the cooperation between the two often seems to be not smooth enough.
Regarding the question of Waters' departure, Zhu Fangyu said that the team will respect the opinion of head coach Du Feng. As the helmsman of the Guangdong men's basketball team, Du Feng has a deep understanding of the team's overall tactics and player characteristics. He will assess his suitability to stay with the team based on the needs of the team and his actual performance. If Du Feng thinks that Waters can adjust his style of play and better integrate into the team, then Waters is still likely to continue to play for the Guangdong men's basketball team
Of course, if Du Feng believes that Waters is not suitable for the team's future planning, then the Guangdong men's basketball team will also look for other suitable foreign players to supplement the team's strength. After all, in a highly competitive CBA league, a strong team needs to have outside players who can adapt to various tactical systems to strengthen the overall strength. In addition to the question of Waters' whereabouts, the Guangdong men's basketball team also faces other challengesThe team needs to complete the adjustment and reshaping of the roster before the start of the new season to ensure that they can achieve better results in the new season. At the same time, the team also needs to strengthen the development and introduction of young players to lay a solid foundation for the future development of the team.
It is worth mentioning that Zhu Fangyu himself is also actively resuming training and preparing for his comeback. The former main player of the Chinese men's basketball team and Guangdong Hongyuan has a high status in the hearts of fans, and his joining will undoubtedly bring more attention and financial benefits to the team. However, Zhu Fangyu also said that the reason why he chose to make a comeback was not entirely out of financial interests, but because he wanted to regain the happiness that basketball brought him. This love and dedication to basketball deserves the admiration and respect of the fans
To sum up, it is still unknown whether Waters will return to the Guangdong men's basketball team. The team will make a decision based on the results of the assessment of head coach Du FengRegardless of the final result, the Guangdong men's basketball team will continue to work hard to prepare for the new season and bring more exciting games and unforgettable memories to fans.
