On October 8, Beijing time, the Beijing Enterprises men's basketball team held a departure ceremony for the new season, and coach Min Lulei was interviewed by the media and responded to many topics of concern from the outside world.
Min Lulei said: Starting from June this year, the three-month summer training, including the adjustment of personnel, is to prepare for the start of the new season on October 15.
Asked about the goals of the new season, Min Lulei said: Beijing Control is a young team, according to my idea is that on the basis of last year, in the playoffs to gain a firm foothold, I hope to improve, but every game still needs to be played one game at a time, 20 teams have no weak teams, especially the 4 quarters of 7 foreign aid rules, each game is very variable.
A reporter asked whether it meant that the team was heading for the quarterfinals.
Min Lulei said: What do you think is your idea, we have the goal in mind, we are preparing for so many days, the unity and training of the team, training hard, we must have the goal in our mind.
When it comes to the recruitment of the new season;
Min Lulei said: After Shen Zijie arrived at the team, he was very good from training to self-management, although he suffered a leg injury some time ago, he recovered quickly. Sallinger has played in the CBA for many years and was also the best outside player last year, Telles is a good athlete, tandem and offensive ability, training attitude are very good.
Min Lulei added that on the topic of performance pressure, she said: "The pressure on the platform of competitive sports will always be with you, but if you choose to love this industry, you need to bear all this.
From the staffing to the selection of foreign aid, although Min Lulei did not respond positively to whether the new season means that it is closer to the results of the playoff quarterfinals, but in terms of this set of lineup configuration, the playoff quarterfinals may be a relatively conservative goal.
Last season, without Shen Zijie and Sallinger, only with Field, Zou Yuchen and others have created the results of the playoffs quarterfinals, but in the face of Shenzhen's game, Sampson's early departure, Liller's hand fracture and other problems, the comprehensive strength of the Beijing Control men's basketball team in all aspects is not as good as the regular season.
After the new season has many strong reinforcements, if only the goal is defined as the playoffs will be overkill, Min Lulei as an experienced coach, his addition means that the Beijing Enterprises men's basketball team needs to be among the ranks of the playoffs, and with the reconstruction of Shenzhen, Guangzhou as the first club, the vacated playoff places may trigger more state-owned enterprise clubs to scramble, and for Beijing Holdings, if you want to compete with the big brother in the same city, you need to at least reach the CBA playoffs strong team ranks.
