After playing the Guangdong provincial team, Guangxia's next opponent was the Yangcheng team.

There was a gap of two or three days in the middle, and Li Huan and other Guangxia players naturally rested at ease and prepared to fight with the Yangcheng team at that time.

Let's say that this day is December 18th, and it was suddenly reported on the Internet that Zhou Qi, the big demon who went to the United States to join the NBA, was cut by the Rockets.

At the beginning, when Zhou Qi entered the NBA through the summer draft, domestic sports media people, including domestic basketball fans, had great expectations, hoping that Zhou Qi could achieve good results in the NBA and let Chinese fans see the demeanor of Chinese players again in NBA games.

It is worth mentioning that when Yao Ming entered the NBA to play, he went to the Rockets, which also made the Rockets a household name in China overnight, and many Chinese basketball fans became fans of the Rockets.

But now, Zhou Qi suffered Waterloo in the Rockets, and he was not able to perform too much, but was laid off.

Li Huan and other Guangxia players also felt inexplicably sighing after hearing the news, and couldn't help but start paying attention to the dynamics of this matter.

According to the news, on this day, the Houston Rockets officially announced the layoff of Chinese player Zhou Qi.

At the same time, Rockets general manager Morey also announced the latest news.

Speaking of which, in fact, since Zhou Qi landed in the NBA, he has not been able to be reused by the Rockets.

In terms of time, Zhou Qi entered the Houston Rockets the year before last, but rarely had the opportunity to play, and spent most of his time playing for the Rockets' development league team, the Orgrande Valley Vipers.

In the two seasons he played in the Development League, Zhou Qi's performance was generally remarkable, averaging 11.2 points, 7 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game, and his shooting rate reached 51.3%.

But if you can't enter the NBA to play, in fact, Zhou Qi might as well play in the CBA.

Now that the Rockets have laid off Zhou Qi, what will he choose?

In fact, in Li Huan's view, Zhou Qi has no more than two choices, one is to continue to stay in the NBA and wait for olive branches from other teams, and the other is to return to China to play CBA.

In the CBA, Zhou Qi's dominance on the inside line is still very strong.

However, in the NBA, his body is still too thin and thin, and he lacks strong confrontation.

With Zhou Qi's current strength, it is still difficult for him to attract a team that aims to make the playoffs throw an ogolous branch to him.

Of course, the kind of weak teams that lack a space-based interior line may still provide Zhou Qi with a chance.

In Li Huan's view, what Zhou Qi needs to do is to continue to maintain an NBA-level training attitude and wait patiently, as for whether he can stay in the NBA to play, it is not a matter of personal will.

Li Huan also read Zhou Qi's statement on social media, saying that he would continue to chase his basketball dream, "The puzzle is not this piece, it will be the next piece." The dream does not change, I am on the way. ”

Seeing what happened to Zhou Qi, Li Huan also felt sorry for him, in fact, the Rockets really didn't have many opportunities for Zhou Qi, especially like an inside player like the other party, if there was not enough time, he would definitely not be able to adapt to the rhythm of the NBA from the CBA.

And Rockets head coach D'Antoni is executing a seven-man rotation.

Zhou Qi is a fringe player, and even if he occasionally has eye-catching performances, he can't gain the trust of the head coach.

For example, in the final game of last season, Zhou Qi sent 4 blocks in limited playing time against the Kings, which shows that he still has a strong dominance on the defensive end.

But then what? There is no then, and Zhou Qi will not be able to continue to get effective playing time, and even garbage time will rarely have the opportunity to appear.

It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

How can a player perform well if he doesn't get enough playing time?

And without a good performance, naturally there is not enough playing time, which is stuck in a dead loop.

In addition, the competition in the NBA is far more fierce than that of the CBA, even those superstars, when they are old, are still eliminated, cut by cut, and retired by retirement, which is why some outdated NBA stars will come to the CBA to play and make a profit.

Of course, Li Huan feels that this experience is not a good workout for Zhou Qi, after all, the NBA, as the world's top basketball palace, has extremely harsh training intensity and competitive environment, which will definitely contribute to Zhou Qi's transformation.

This was evident from last week's smashing performance at the Asian Games, so being able to land in the NBA and have the opportunity to play is a valuable experience for her.

Li Huan's dream was to become a professional footballer, and now he has done it.

And now his wish is to one day enter the NBA and really feel the fierce confrontation in the NBA.

However, Zhou Qi's cut also reminded Li Huan that he must have a clear understanding of the cruelty of the NBA, and at the same time, he must also consider which team is the most suitable to go to.

What's the use of going to the NBA if you can't get enough playing time and are just a marginal person?

Looking at the many players who went to play in the NBA in the past, including Yao Ming, Wang Dazhi, Battle, Sun Le, Yi Jianlian and others, Yao Ming is the only one who can really stand firm and become the main force, which shows that it is really difficult to gain a foothold in a place dominated by American culture like the NBA.

Even Lin Shuhao, who grew up in the United States, has experienced a long period of hard work, and later relied on excellent performance to become the main force at the beginning, but now because of injuries and conditions, it is difficult to ensure the position of the main force.

Li Huan went to play in the NBA, he definitely didn't want to be a substitute, if he wanted to play, he would be the main force, if it was a substitute, he would rather not go.

But when a player comes into the team, you don't have a lot of decision-making, unless you're big enough to be admired.

But all the Chinese players who came out of the CBA, even if they were popular with the NBA before they went, but after they really arrived, would people still be willing to praise you? That's hard to say, after all, you have become a competitor from the original spectator, and everyone has different requirements for you.

And every team has its own culture, whether you can fit into this circle and get the trust of your teammates also largely determines whether you can perform well.

Therefore, Li Huan feels that for this dream, he must understand the situation of the city where each team in the NBA is located, the atmosphere of the team, and the situation of the current players, only in this way can he find a team that suits him.

Only the team that suits him, Li Huan feels that he can truly integrate into it and call for wind and rain in the NBA.

Li Huan was also landing on Weibo when he watched these news, and suddenly he received a private message from Lin Shu.

Lin Shu also has a lot of Weibo fans, and often posts some sports comments, just like this time the big demon was laid off, he also wrote one.

In fact, Lin Shu had already predicted that Zhou Qi might be laid off by the rockets, because Naike's termination was a harbinger.

Li Huan read Lin Shu's private message, which was to ask Li Huan what he thought about going to the NBA.

Li Huan looked at it and replied that let's communicate on the phone, so he dialed Lin Shu's mobile phone.
