At present, the two oldest foreign aides in the CBA are Hudson and Haddadi, followed by Weems, Adams, Mayo, Gibson, Fredette and other foreign aides, the years are not spared, they were once the top foreign aides in the CBA, and now they can still play, but the state is not as good as it was then. According to Sichuan media, Haddadi will not retire next season, and the Sichuan team will still sign Haddadi as a big foreign aid candidate. Haddadi will be 37 years old next season and looks forward to him and Yi Jianlian competing again.
In the regular season this season, Haddadi averaged 32.2 minutes per game, can get 17.5 points, 13.5 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 1.6 blocks, shooting 53.8% from the field. Haddadi played explosive data in the first half of the season, often getting 20+20; the second half of the season was not physically good, coupled with the arrival of small foreign aid Hunter, Haddadi played more healthily. Facing Qingdao in the first round of the playoffs, Haddadi played 30 minutes, shooting only 4 of 13 and scoring only 8 points, but grabbed 13 rebounds, gave 8 assists, and made 7 turnovers. The Tactics of the Sichuan team are entirely based on Haddadi, who plays the role of organizing the attack. In the playoffs against the young Liu Chuanxing, Haddadi could not move, and it can be seen that his competitive level has begun to decline.
Haddadi is a hero in the history of the Sichuan men's basketball team, who led the team to defeat Liaoning to win the championship and won the finals MVP! Even if Haddadi is 37 years old soon, the Sichuan team still believes in him, and Haddadi will retire here! The goal of the Sichuan team is to play the playoffs and then develop young players, and Haddadi is a mentor and locker room leader who can help young players grow. Sichuan will not renew Hunter's contract, they need to find a small foreign aid with strong offensive ability, Haddadi as the second foreign aid, averaging about 20 minutes per game.
Probably many fans do not like Haddadi, because the Iranian men's basketball team he once led was an old rival of the Chinese men's basketball team, and Haddadi will lead the Iranian team to play the Tokyo Olympics this summer. Hadadi and Yi Jianlian are old enemies, in fact, the two now have a good relationship, last season the two fought, they both joked with each other, after the UAE Waslamic League was injured, Haddadi said in front of reporters: "I and Yi are friends for many years, I wish him a speedy recovery, and look forward to competing with him again." "The game between Haddadi and Yi Jianlian is to watch one less game, and the two pairs are even less, and they look at and cherish."
