Three wins and three losses in six games, the weak team wins and the strong team loses, and the future of Liaoning team is uncertain.
Wen | Chen Huizhi’s Sports
After the disastrous defeat to Xinjiang team, Liaoning team gained 3 wins and 3 losses after the first six games of the new season, winning or losing opponents with a 50% winning rate, which made the team feel …
It’s really hard! The current situation of Liaoning team can be said to be dangerous …
It seems that there is a 50% winning rate of 3 wins and 3 losses, but the opponent’s record in the three games won is worse than the team itself, while the opponent’s record in the three games lost is stronger than himself.
You can win the weak team, but you lose to the strong team. You should know that this Liaoning team is the champion of CBA in the new season at the beginning of the season!
I don’t know where to start with the current situation of the team. I’m afraid no one will believe that the Liaoning team will play such a record.
CBA lost the opening match to Guangdong team, which was short of striker general Zhou Peng. After returning to home in the second game, it was nearly 30 points behind Zhejiang Guangsha team. Recently, it was defeated by Xinjiang team with single foreign aid.
There is a wave of three consecutive victories in six games, but the opponents are Shenzhen team, Bayi team and Jiangsu Tongxi team. These three opponents are all in the top ten.
Think of Xinjiang, which ranks first in the league, Guangdong, which ranks second, and Zhejiang Guangsha, which also ranks in the top five.
Compared with all 46 games in the regular season, the number of 6 games is not particularly large, but according to this trend, I am afraid that the team’s new season goals are hopeless at all.
Although we stopped the semi-finals of CBA last season, the team’s running-in effect was very good. In the final stage, we lacked Han Dejun’s lineup, but we still played the team’s momentum.
But now it’s completely different. Judging from the operation results of the offseason, the team is far from reaching the ideal state.
It may even be worse than last season. Teams that have signed heavy foreign aid have done it before, and the lessons from the past should not be underestimated.
At that time, when the news that Liaoning team signed Stephenson came, I was afraid that the new season goal of this top four team last season was only the championship, and it was bound to go further.
Coupled with Han Dejun’s return from injury, the strength of the front line in the team lineup will be greatly improved, while the combination of point guards of two national players, Guo Ailun and Zhao Jiwei, is so natural.
However, as a whole team, only four players have scored in double figures per game, Stephenson is the highest in the team and Guo Ailun is the highest among local players.
From the point of view of score distribution, it is also good, and the team’s record and winning percentage are also good, but the point is that the goal of Liaoning team is to win the championship, and failure to win the championship is a failure.
This is the only way to face the defeat of a strong team now, which makes the team feel crisis-ridden, and Stephenson, a big-name foreign aid, joined the team, and the team has never found a good chemical reaction.
At present, the team can send 20.3 assists per game, but in the three lost games, it has only 14 assists per game.
The Liaoning team naturally knows the seriousness of this problem. If they can’t get together all the time, it’s only a matter of time before they break up.
The topic around Stephenson and Liaoning team is doomed to be dull from the moment they join hands.
After six games, Stephenson averaged 30.2 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, shooting 61% from two-pointers, 36% from three-pointers and 74% from free throws.
Looking at this data alone, the performance of this CBA foreign aid is not bad, but you should know that he is replacing Hudson and joining the Liaoning team with two national hand guards.
In the first CBA season, if it is judged that he has not met the expectations of Liaoning team by the rhythm of this league, then the team is not willing to hear it.
Still back to the old problem, the whole team cooperated too little, while Stephenson, the core foreign aid, averaged only 3 assists per game, with only 5 assists in the three games lost by the team and only 1 assist in the two games lost by the team.
No matter what kind of play Stephenson used to play, as long as he is on the Liaoning team, according to his age of 29, he must be able to connect teams in series when he needs a lot of ball rights.
Compared with Hudson, a former Liaoning player, he didn’t need much possession of the ball, and he could score points and assist his teammates. Stephenson was an enhanced version of Hudson, at least that’s what the team thought at the time.
Stephenson’s problem is closely related to Guo Ailun and other teammates. The strongest foreign aid and the best local players in the team can’t get together.
This is the last thing the Liaoning team wants to see. On the current "individual combat capability", both teams are outstanding in their respective positions, but if the team wants to win, it must join hands to achieve results.
Both of them need a lot of ball rights, so the combination of the two was considered to be a very contradictory combination at the beginning, but at that time the team believed that both of them could choose.
Attack-oriented play is not the characteristic of traditional point guards, but with the faster transmission speed of basketball, playing fast has become a trend.
Before Stephenson returned to Liaoning, the team was characterized by fast break, but the core of fast break was cooperation. Looking at the number of assists of the team now, we know that there is no fast break at all.
Stephenson needs to make changes, as do Guo Ailun and other teammates. It is not only the integration of the former into the team, but also a whole process of players running in with each other.
Running-in is the biggest problem for Liaoning team now, but it is also necessary for the team to persist in using Stephenson’s style of play.
The breakthrough ability of this foreign aid is well known, but if there is no outside line to contain it, then its impact will probably be in vain, but at present the team’s outside line strength is not worthy of his breakthrough.
After six games, the team’s number of three-point goals and hit rate are not particularly ideal, averaging 7.8 hits per game, ranking sixteenth among the twenty teams, which is really the fifth lowest level.
The original fast-break advantage is disappearing, or it can’t be effectively competitive, and the new aid Stephenson’s specialty can’t be used.
Liaoning team not only failed to break in a new tactical style of play, but the original characteristics of the team’s play are slowly drifting away.
It is imperative to change foreign aid. This sentence may sound a bit premature. Now it is six games later, so 16 games? Twenty-six games And then to the CBA playoffs?
What Liaoning team needs to do most at present is to run in well with foreign aid Stephenson, but the time given to them is not as abundant as before the season has started.
More than half a month has passed, and the shortcomings of strong teams have been fully exposed, and the goal of hitting the playoffs and winning the championship is gradually drifting away.
The team still has to follow the rules of basketball, which is a team sport. It doesn’t mean winning by bringing players together, but also needs to polish the characteristics of each player, and this basketball work.
Every player needs to do it, and the coaching staff should ponder it carefully, but the game will continue, and time may be the biggest opponent of Liaoning team!
