CBA Shocking Trade! Zhou Qi's Beijing Journey, Guangdong Team Laughing Secretly? The Truth Behind the Trade
On January 11th, Beijing time, Beijing Shougang lost 92-106 to Zhejiang Guangsha as an away team, falling to ninth in the league rankings. At the beginning of the season, Beijing team built a luxurious lineup, but now it has fallen to this point, which undoubtedly disappointed many fans. The reasons for poor performance are complex and not achieved overnight.
1. Coaching Mistakes: Coach Xu Limin's on-site command has been criticized, with chaotic substitution strategies and improper use of personnel at critical moments. The introduction of three foreign aid is also puzzling, lacking the ability to save the situation at critical moments. The lack of tactical system makes the team more like a scattered sand, fighting separately, and difficult to form a synergy. It's like a carefully planned war, but it's commanded by an inexperienced commander, and the result can be imagined.
2. Poor Performance of Frontcourt Players: The luxurious frontcourt combination introduced by Beijing team - Zhou Qi, Fan Ziming, and Qiu Tian, has disappointed this season. They lack toughness and cannot stand out at critical moments, especially Zhou Qi, which is even more surprising. These three players are like three rusty sharp swords, losing their past sharpness and difficult to play a role in fierce competitions.
3. Zhou Qi's Injuries and Form: During the offseason, Guangdong Hongyuan reached a trade with Beijing Shougang, and Zhou Qi joined Beijing team. Guangdong team received considerable cash compensation, but at that time, many fans expressed concern, thinking that the team lost its core inside line, and the playoff prospects were worrying. However, Zhou Qi's performance in Beijing team was far below expectations. He frequently suffered from injuries and missed many games due to injuries during the season, and even a cold became a reason for him to miss the game. During this period, his low attendance rate made people doubt his professional attitude and competitive state, which did not match the top salary.
4. Impact of the Trade: Zhou Qi averaged 12.5 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in Beijing team, which was a sharp drop compared with his data in Guangdong team (17.7 points, 11.7 rebounds). This formed a huge contrast with the high hopes Beijing team had for him at first. On the other hand, Guangdong team climbed to eighth place with stable tactics and outstanding performance of the players, which highlighted the wisdom of Guangdong team's trade of Zhou Qi. It's like a smart business deal, where one side seems to have suffered heavy losses, while the other unexpectedly gained benefits.
5. Public Opinion Pressure: Zhou Qi's performance in Beijing team has aroused widespread dissatisfaction among fans. The Internet is full of criticism of Zhou Qi, believing that he "fishes for three days and dries the net for two days," "rotten," and "not ambitious." Fans' anger erupted like a volcano, questioning his professionalism. This negative public opinion further exacerbated Beijing team's difficulties and brought unnecessary pressure to the team.
Guangdong team's trade of Zhou Qi seemed to have lost a powerful inside player, but in fact avoided huge risks. Zhou Qi's poor performance in Beijing team not only failed to enhance the team's strength, but also dragged the team back. Keeping a player who often misses games with high salary is an unbearable burden for any team. Guangdong team avoided this risk and used the cash exchanged for Zhou Qi to build other aspects of the team, such as cultivating young players and introducing other suitable players.
On the contrary, Beijing team paid a huge price to get Zhou Qi at the beginning, but got a "time bomb." This trade not only failed to improve the team's record, but also intensified the internal and external troubles of the team. The management of Beijing team needs to seriously reflect and learn lessons, and be more cautious in future player introduction and team management.
What will be the future of Zhou Qi? He needs to seriously reflect on his professional attitude and competitive state, actively overcome injuries, improve his strength, and prove himself with practical actions. Beijing team also needs to adjust its strategy and find suitable inside players again to make up for the strength gap brought by Zhou Qi.
In short, Guangdong team's move to trade Zhou Qi looks so wise now. Behind this trade, there are many profound truths. It is not only an ordinary player trade in CBA League, but also a comprehensive embodiment of team management, player professional quality, and market operation. The final result of this trade will have a profound impact on the future development of CBA League. The result of this trade once again proves to us that: suitable players are much more important than more famous players. Instead of spending a high price to introduce a superstar who is in poor condition or even unprofessional, it is better to choose those down-to-earth and diligent players who match the team's tactical system. This is the right way to build a championship team.
