According to the team reporter Guan Xin, Guangdong Men's Basketball Team will no longer give Les the opportunity to play due to his professional attitude. Les will automatically leave the team after the one-month contract expires. It is said that the signing of Les itself was quite strange. After about 10 days of trial training, it was only announced in a covert manner. It was originally thought that Les could share about 10 minutes of playing time with Xu Jie, but it turned out that until he was abandoned, Les' total playing time did not exceed 5 minutes, and he didn't even break a sweat. This may also be the main reason for Les' emotional outburst.
After traveling a long distance to find foreign aid, no matter how much the salary is, they should at least be given around a quarter of playing time to determine if they are suitable for playing in the CBA through actual combat. It is quite rare for a foreign aid like Les to only play for more than two minutes per game and then be deemed unsuitable. If the trial training could reveal the true quality, then why sign them? Is a monthly salary of $10,000 not money? It is reported that Guangdong Men's Basketball Team has quoted a price for the 1.97-meter forward Bart. Bart is a scoring machine from NBL Guangxi Weizhuang. Zhu Fangyu's move has been highly recognized by fans. Regardless of whether Bart can produce a chemical reaction with the team, finding such an independent and capable foreign aid is the right choice.
After completing the physical examination and registration procedures, Liaoning Men's Basketball Team's new recruit Justin Patton will make his debut in the away game against Jilin Northeast Tigers. In their last encounter, Liaoning Men's Basketball Team dug a hole of more than 30 points in the first two quarters and although they tried hard to catch up, they were unable to turn the tide due to limited time. This time around, Coach Yang Ming has made more adequate preparations. Besides Justin Patton enhancing the team's rim protection, Zhao Jiwei and Huang Qiushi also rushed to Changchun by high-speed train from Shenyang to support. The opponent's interior strength is not strong, so Yang Ming went to great lengths to mobilize troops and generals, definitely not wanting to lose unexpectedly on the road again.
The CBA fines have been issued, with Zhao Rui being suspended for 5 games and fined 100,000 yuan for shoving a referee. Xinjiang Men's Basketball Team's head coach Liu Wei was also fined 20,000 yuan in conjunction. Referring to the suspension standards of recent seasons, Zhao Rui's behavior of colliding with the referee is simply too leniently punished. In the eyes of Xinjiang fans, compared to the two young Xinjiang guards who were vigorously promoted by Coach Liu Wei this season, Zhao Rui seems unwilling to play for Xinjiang Men's Basketball Team, hence his obvious problematic attitude on the court, the reasons for which fans are unaware.
As the only two top-salary players within Xinjiang Men's Basketball Team, captain Abudu Salamu and Zhao Rui have both performed unsatisfactorily this season. They have not played a leading role and instead often dragged the team back, with their fighting spirit far inferior to the young players within the team. During the period when the two were absent, the team played smoothly instead. However, if Xinjiang fans think that the two are useless based solely on this, they would be greatly mistaken. After all, during the regular season, each team does not have defensive intensity. Once it reaches the playoffs, the lack of experience among most Xinjiang fans will become apparent. At that time, experienced veterans like Zhao Rui and Abudu Salamu can play a stabilizing role, so finding someone to soothe Zhao Rui's situation as soon as possible should be the focus of Xinjiang Men's Basketball Team's next work.
During the recent CBA referees' meeting, the basketball association repeatedly named Zhang Ning's foul actions, urging referees to firmly curb such actions in subsequent games. Judging from Zhang Ning's series of actions, it is caused by excessive force. The underlying reason might still be due to excessive eagerness to show oneself, resulting in relatively minor malicious fouls. However, judging from the harm caused to opponents, Zhang Ning still needs to reflect on his actions. Being bold and aggressive is good, but it should never be at the expense of the opponent's health.
