The CBA has entered the offseason, and according to the past tradition, player transfers will become a new hot spot, especially this offseason, because there are many big-name players whose contracts expire and they all have the intention of leaving, coupled with the financial difficulties of some teams, and the idea of opening a player supermarket, so this offseason player transfers are still very exciting.
But surprisingly, the hot spot in the recent transfer market is not the player, but the coach, and this coach is the coach of Guangzhou Longshi Guo Shiqiang, and where he goes has become the hottest topic in the CBA. is so hot that the two big fish in the CBA transfer market this season, Zhou Qi and Guo Allen, have become background boards. The fourth quarter of Zhou Qi's Qu'S Quarter and the second season of Guo Allen's Qu'Nar had to be postponed.
Guo Shiqiang coached as the champion coach of Liao Basketball, and finally because of the team's internal reasons, he went to Guangzhou Longshi to start a second business, bringing the long-term super fish belly Guangzhou Longshi back to the playoffs, and cultivating young players such as Li Yanzhe, Cui Yongxi, and Jiao Boqiao. In just three years, the dragon and lion have become a vigorous youth army. His coaching skills have been widely recognized, and he completed a five-year contract with the Lions last season. Supposedly, you shouldn't have entered the transfer market so quickly.
The reason is actually very simple, there are two main points, the first is that Guangzhou Longshi is a team with a more prominent CBA business model, and the team does not reflect too high ambitions, but uses more energy to make money by trading players, and it can be seen from the sale of Fan Ziming and Li Yanzhe that this is not a performance-only team. This should conflict with Guo Shiqiang's concept of building a strong team.
The second reason is that the Dragon and Lions broke out in an economic storm this season, and the financial difficulties of the parent company led to problems with the team's investment. Faced with the possibility of opening a player supermarket, the media revealed that the team's two cores, Jiao Boqiao and Zhu Mingzhen, were on the trade list. In this case, there is a lot of suspense about whether Guo Shiqiang still chooses to stay in the Guangzhou team.
According to previous news, there are two teams that are very sincere in inviting Guo Shiqiang, one is Shandong Expressway and the other is Shanxi Fenjiu on the other side of Taihang Mountain, and both teams have one thing in common, that is, they are not bad for money. In this process, the news of Guo Shiqiang's appearance in Jinan made Shandong High-speed take the lead in the process of fighting for Guo Shiqiang. Guo Shiqiang's joining the highway seems to have reached the point of official announcement. But then the news that Guo Shiqiang, the official of the Dragon and Lion, led the team to train, reversed things.
It is said that Shanxi Fenjiu gave Guo Shiqiang a condition far higher than that given by Shandong Expressway, and Guo Shiqiang basically agreed to the conditions given by Shanxi.
But coincidentally, things have taken a more dramatic turn, and Shanxi media revealed that Guo Shiqiang has rejected the invitation of the Shanxi team, because this time there was a big boss who cut off his beard. That is, the Chinese Basketball Association has left the position of national team coach to Guo Shiqiang's guidance.
The current coach of the Chinese men's national basketball team is Djordjevic, a famous coach from Europe, but after Qiao Shuai led the team, the Chinese men's basketball team did not improve, and all of them collapsed from the World Cup to the Asian Games, resulting in a crisis of confidence for Qiao Shuai. From the fans to the media, it is the voice of Qiao Cheng, fortunately, Yao Ming supported him so that he did not have the trouble of being fired in advance, but the latest news shows that the Chinese Basketball Association has lost patience with Qiao Shuai, and the old man whose contract is about to expire will most likely leave the Chinese men's basketball team.
Once Qiao Shuai leaves, the Chinese men's basketball team will inevitably select the coach again. As the current first assistant coach of the national team, Guo Shiqiang is obviously the best candidate. So the news that Guo Shiqiang will be in the national team again comes naturally. What Shandong and Shanxi must be unstoppable.
Guo Shiqiang's coach is not without being a national team coach, but the results are not ideal, and the famous snickering door when he lost Tianjin in the 2009 Asian Cup is an incident in his tenure. If Director Guo staged the second palace this time, it can only be said that he was unwilling to do so back then.
