The performance of the Beijing men's basketball team this season does not live up to the big-name signings during the offseason. Despite having several national team players, their win rate after 28 rounds is only 67.9%. If Beijing wants to get back on track, upgrading the roster is urgent. But how should they adjust and upgrade? Plan One for Roster Upgrade: Cut Two Foreign Players Beijing has three foreign players: guard Jerman, center Solomon, and forward Omore. Here are their respective characteristics. Jerman, as a guard, is not good at mid-range shooting and layups. His scoring methods are mostly dunks and three-pointers, but his dunks lack rhythm changes and rely solely on speed, while his three-pointers are hit or miss. Under the foreign player policy of 4 quarters and 7 rotations, Jerman's characteristics do not match this version. Solomon is a blue-collar type of center, a volleyball-type player, with average static talent and single offensive methods. However, he has good dynamic talent, outstanding rebounding and putback abilities, and a positive attitude, which makes him both tasteless and a pity to discard. Omore is seriously incompatible with the CBA. He is a player who is not good at confrontation, which is not just about having the ball but also without the ball. For example, if a tactic requires getting rid of the defender, the defender may use some small moves that the referee doesn't call, making it impossible for Omore to shake off the defender, and he may lose confidence as the game goes on... Considering that Jerman does not match…

With the deepening of the CBA league, teams are striving for playoff spots. Beijing Shougang, a traditional powerhouse in the league, has had an inconsistent performance this season, especially in the selection and use of foreign players, which has been a focus of external attention. Recently, the fourth foreign aid of Beijing Shougang has emerged - James Nunnally, the former small forward of the NBA New Orleans Pelicans. The arrival of this 34-year-old veteran has become a hot topic among fans and media, as to whether he can be the "timely rain" to help the team out of its difficulties. James Nunnally is a small forward who has also shone on the NBA court. Although his career has not reached the top level in the NBA, his rich game experience and versatile technical characteristics have made him a sought-after player by many teams. Especially on the offensive end, Nunnally not only possesses excellent outside shooting ability but can also create threats under the basket. His arrival will undoubtedly provide more offensive options for Beijing Shougang. However, age is an issue that Nunnally cannot avoid. At 34, whether his physical condition and endurance can adapt to the high-intensity games of the CBA is the biggest variable. Moreover, the transition from European and American leagues to the CBA involves not only differences in game rhythm and rules but also requires adapting to new teammates and game environments. Whether Nunnally can quickly integrate into the team and perform at the expected level remains to be seen. Beijing Shougang has been controversial in its…
