According to the latest news, Liu Wei, the head coach of the Xinjiang team, made an important decision today, yes, that is, to determine the foreign aid of the Xinjiang team in the playoffs, and in the end, the foreign aid left by the Xinjiang team was Thornwell, Hagens, Harrell and Lawson, while Edwards and Peterson were dismissed. (Although the Xinjiang team has hoarded six foreign aids, and the CBA playoffs can only report four foreign aids, for this reason, the Xinjiang team has to dismiss 2 foreign aids.) )
Liu Wei also explained why such a decision was made, he believes that from the current team staffing, Hagens, Harrell, Thornwell, Lawson, the four foreign aides are more suitable for the team, plus, the team has some injuries, therefore, Hagens and Thornwell in some positions, can better make up for the team, can better match with the team. Obviously, Liu Wei made such a decision to think comprehensively and comprehensively.
However, for Liu Wei's choice, fans are a little incomprehensible, because Peterson is the scoring champion of the Xinjiang team and the strongest offensive player in the team, however, Liu Wei abandoned Peterson. As we all know, if a team wants to go far in the CBA playoffs, in addition to having excellent defense, offensive ability is also very important, otherwise, you can't score, what's the use?
Last season, the reason why the Xinjiang team lost to the Liaoning team in the CBA finals is that the team does not have a stable scorer, and the offensive ability cannot be compared with the Liaoning team, especially at critical times, no player can stand up and score. On the other hand, Liaoning team's super foreign aid Fogg is very sharp on the offensive end, and all kinds of inexplicable goals make the Xinjiang team helpless. However, now that Liu Wei has directly dismissed Peterson, who has the best offensive ability, it is normal for fans to have some doubts.
Some fans believe that Liu Wei is a very unwise choice to keep Hagens, because his offensive ability is too poor, so far, his average score per game is only 5.0 points, which is completely a parallel foreign aid, and in the CBA playoffs, he will definitely not have much effect, and Liu Wei will definitely regret leaving him.
Some fans also believe that although the Xinjiang team has signed six foreign aids, it can be said that the team has spent a lot of thought on foreign aid, but, judging from the scoring ability of this foreign aid, it is reasonable for Peterson to say, although he plays a little alone, but, at a critical time, he can really score. Liu Wei really shouldn't abandon him. In the playoffs, when the Xinjiang team can't score, Liu Wei may miss Peterson.
Of course, some people may say that the Xinjiang team also has Harrell, the NBA's best sixth man, but judging from his previous performance, he is a parallel foreign aid.
So, ladies and gentlemen, what do you think about this matter?
