Jiangsu, which once competed with Guangdong Hongyuan for the championship, was completely lost under the coaching of the head coach, and the team became a team that was difficult to find in the CBA, and last season's record was at the bottom of the league.
In addition to the poor strength of the team, an important reason is that the current Jiangsu is not picking up, look at recent years, Jiangsu in addition to what good strength players, basically not, in addition to a CBA can also do blue-collar Wu Guanxi, the strength of other players is very general, and Li Nan is a defensive manager, the offensive end of the coaching ability is very limited.
Defensive end of Jiangsu players due to physical conditions, basically can not play a high-intensity defense, their own attack is not good, defense is limited by innate conditions, such a Jiangsu record does not have to be bad to describe, I can not think of better words.
And this season's gratifying message is that Jiangsu Nangang finally ushered in a young rookie player - Jiang Haoran, Jiang Haoran is a young and famous player, when the national youth has a very brilliant performance, and even when facing the United States team, there is also a feat of slashing 29 points. In a match with Shanghai today, Jiang Haoran cut down 14 points and 6 rebounds, and we saw the excellence of this young player, holding the ball twice to single the old and spicy Ren Junfei, once to play, once to cause Ren Junwei's foul.
This is exactly the player that is now in decline in Jiangsu, the current Jiangsu inner offensive ability is very bad, although there is Wu Guanxi in the squad, but Wu Guanxi's inner line offensive ability is very general, there is no soft feel, the attack is also very rough, and Jiang Haoran is different, his skills in the attack are very good, and the player's physical confrontation is very outstanding.
Li Nan's coaching in these two seasons has been criticized by many fans, because he has completely brought Jiangsu into the ditch, the team has become a complete fish belly team, the record is even worse than Tongxi, and now Li Nan's coaching has ushered in a new hope, the rise of young players will be the key to Jiangsu back on track.
