On the evening of the 20th, Beijing Shougang lost to Liaoning again 86-105 in the second quarter-finals of the playoffs, and finally was eliminated with a total score of 0-2. Shougang returned to the top eight this season, and they have completed the lowest goal of the season. In other words, this is an acceptable season, especially considering Shougang’s change of coach in the middle of this season, he can also quickly and smoothly pass the adjustment period.

But at the same time, Shougang still left many question marks. For example, does Leyden continue to lead the team as manager for the next season? According to the results of leading the team, Leiden is qualified enough and should continue to lead the team. But objectively speaking, the biggest difference laiden brings to Shougang is definitely not technical and tactical, but style. Leiden took over the team at that time, and he had no time to reform and improve his skills and tactics. Leyden provided the players with enough freedom of attack. However, Shougang, which seemed to attack suppressed before, played their normal level of attack in such an environment. Players like Fang Shuo and Zhu Yanxi further amplified their advantages. However, the problem is that Shougang, which has such characteristics and types, can be regarded as a middle-level team, but there is still a big gap between the top teams such as Guangdong, Liaoning and Zhejiang.

Foreign aid is also an important choice Shougang faced this summer. As Shougang’s management has changed during this season, Shougang will choose foreign aid to expand its scope next. Predictably, it is difficult for foreign aid Nick Johnson and Gibson, the defenders who played for Shougang this season, to stay. Nick is a serious foreign aid with weak attack and no three points, which cannot be established in CBA. Gibson grew older, and his status was no longer that year, and he had no reason to stay.

Shougang wants to narrow the gap with the top teams, and it will be the top priority to re-select the defender’s foreign aid. Compared with ma shang-Brooks in Guangdong, Fuge in Liaoning and Gailey in Zhejiang, Shougang’s defenders are far from foreign aid. In addition, there is no clear direction for Liff to renew his contract. In the face of weaker opponents this season, Cliff can have the performance of rolling level and seems to be the thigh of the team. However, when confronted with a strong enemy, especially a stronger opponent, Liff’s weak performance appeared several times. The most obvious example was the two matches against Liaoning. He almost showed no value, and there is a tendency to be timid.

Finally, the contracts of many domestic players including Fang Shuo, Fan Ziming, Zhang Cairen, Tian Yuxiang, Raymond, Fan Yiming, Yang Ali and so on will expire this summer. Among them, Fang Shuo was the top salary contract before. In the second half of this season, the outside world also believes that Fang Shuo can be qualified to renew the contract with the top salary. Fan Ziming has already expired the protection contract. If Shougang does not renew him with a top salary, there is a risk of “bidding” with other teams or losing him. However, no matter whether Shougang’s top salary is renewed, Fang Shuo and Fan Ziming still have advantages in the top salary quota, which is also the basis for them to find “big fish” this summer.
