CBA championship player personal tour, today let's talk about another controversial player of the Liaoning team, although Yan Shouqi played the best season of his career, but it is still considered by many fans to be tasteless and abandoned, the main reason is that Yan Shouqi's performance in the playoffs did not meet the expectations of fans!
Regular season performance
Let's talk about Yan Shouqi's performance in the regular season first, at the beginning of the season, the game of the hand emperor on the field still feels the same as in previous seasons, so that you are anxious for him in front of the TV, although there is less dribbling over half court, but the handling of the transfer ball is still frizzy, and the choice of running and shooting timing is still as unreasonable as ever, especially Li Huyi performed well during that time, and Zhang Junhao also showed the strength of the newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, so many people think that the hand emperor is about to be abandoned, He will leave the team at the end of the season!
This situation ushered in a turnaround in the middle of the season, during that time it was Huzi and Junhao who encountered a bottleneck, the hand emperor once again got enough time to play, last December 24 and the Sichuan team, the hand emperor scored a double for the first time in the season, the next New Year's Day battle, the hand emperor three-point shot four shots, to help the team win the Guangdong team at home, it is from this time that the game temperament of the hand emperor suddenly improved a lot, and the various actions and shooting options on the court have become very reasonable!
It is also from this period of time that the hand emperor firmly occupies the starting No. 2 position, Yan Shouqi's sudden opening is actually not accidental, the main defensive No. 2 position can avoid many of its criticized shortcomings, he can completely focus on defense, with his own strong points to help himself gradually regain his self-confidence, in this case, some outside vacant three-pointers, with the improvement of self-confidence, can naturally be hit, the entire regular season three-point shooting rate reached 39%, is the Liaoning team with the highest data of the player!
Playoff performance
Let's talk about the performance of the Emperor in the playoffs, compared with the regular season, all aspects of the data of the Emperor have declined, especially the playing time in the finals has dropped to single digits, and the last game was abandoned, this is the only game in the playoffs where Yan Handqi has no appearance record, so the head coach did not give up the Emperor of the Hands, but tactical needs, Moreland's poor performance in the finals led to a sharp increase in Fogg's playing time, so most of the time in the finals, the backcourt combination was Fergus's partner Zhao Jiwei!
In the finals, G4 Hand Emperor was abandoned, also because Moreland was suspended, the small foreign aid occupied a position throughout the game, and the head coach also adopted a short rotation strategy, so it is reasonable that Hand Emperor did not get the opportunity to play. In addition, in the process of the finals, defenders such as Yu Dehao and Huang Rongqi of the Xinjiang team are the kind of players who are more fierce in defense, and the intensity of the confrontation is very great, and Yan Shouqi was caught off guard.
Future development prospects
This summer, the hand emperor is also a player whose contract expires, in my opinion, the renewal of the contract is a high probability event, the Liaoning team's guard line, Huzi and Junhao have not fully grown up, the hand emperor is still the third defender behind Zhao Jiwei and Guo Allen, although he is only a functional player, but his defensive ability is still an indispensable part of the team, and the overall performance of the hand emperor this season has made full progress, and the physique that is not easy to be injured is also its biggest advantage, once there are injured players on the back line, He's still one of the most consistent and reliable players!
