Fact Proves: Guangdong Men's Basketball, After Big Win Over Jilin, Has Embarked on a New Path
The overwhelming victory over Jilin has proven that Guangdong men's basketball team has embarked on a new path. Netizens have keenly pointed out that the victory for Guangdong seems too easy, with Zhang Haojia and Du Runwang making too many mistakes, and their most prominent performance on the court is their penchant for passing to the opponents. Jilin is riddled with injuries, so the real test will be against Liaoning next game, right? After this big win, can Xu Jie solve his three-point shooting issues? It's crucial for the match against Liaoning. The club is very happy to win, but it also faces reality; without a domestic center, they might not make it past the first round of the playoffs this year.
As Guangdong fans, we hope the club reflects on the foreign player issues and the center position problems. Without a domestic center, they can't compete in the fourth quarter against top eight teams and will only last until the first round of the playoffs. Why not look for talent in other teams' youth training programs or trade with other clubs?
Guangdong played well in this game, but Xu Jie's condition is worrying. His physical exertion is too high; he needs to rest. The new foreign player, Les, seems to be just filling in time. I hope he can step up in the next game against Liaoning and alleviate some of Xu Jie's burden. The CBA's competitive intensity isn't considered high-level, and many players get injured because their training isn't up to par, making them unable to adapt once they're on the court.
Moving forward, when facing Liaoning, they must dare to fight fiercely, maintain momentum, and not be afraid to use different players. Bazley is like Dunbao reincarnated; he goes all out against weak teams but hesitates against strong ones. Honestly, it's expected he'll score less than ten points against Liaoning. I don't know what fans see in him, pushing management to re-sign him just to watch him dunk a few meaningless baskets against weak teams. You might as well watch streetball dunks instead.
Jilin Northeast Tigers are plagued by widespread injuries, with Jones, Kizlink, Jiang Yuxing, Jiang Weize, Wu Changze, Luan Licheng, Dai Huibo all suffering from injuries, and Ding Haoran just recovered. Most are flu-related, with Xiao Jiang's ankle sprain not fully healed, and others also spraining their ankles!
Everyone knows Les isn't up to the task, yet even with a 30+ lead in garbage time in the fourth quarter, Du Feng prefers to let five young players find their rhythm rather than give Les even one second more playing time. This is a treatment not even Ams has received. Since Les is just here to make up the numbers, it would be better not to include him in the 12-man list and instead cultivate young guards like Yang Yi and Li Wenhao.
Huang Rongqi's performance today was truly eye-catching, showing that Guangdong's bench depth has improved significantly! In the upcoming match against Liaoning, we must bring our A-game and show the opponents the might of the South China Tigers!
Thank you all for your continued support. On my creative journey, I'm grateful for your company, and I will continue to work hard!
