The NBA dream is shattered, the 35+7+9 player in a single game was waived! It’s time for Zeng Fanbo to come back, it’s not worth it to help others make money

The titan who scored 35 points, 7 rebounds, and 9 assists in a single game against the Lakers was actually waived today. I was really shocked when I saw this news. Thinking back to Zeng Fanbo, there is really no need to struggle anymore. As the top basketball league, the NBA really needs to let its strength speak for itself.

Today is the last game day of the NBA preseason. All games are currently over. Before the regular season, each team needs to determine the final 15-man roster. Therefore, each team has begun to lay off players one after another.

Jazz center Bamba, who played against Yang Hansen in the last game, became the first person to be laid off today. This talented big man basically has to change teams every year. In the face of the highly competitive NBA, even his 220cm wingspan is not enough. From today, he is unemployed.

Then I accidentally saw the news that the Suns waived Butler. I believe many people are not familiar with this player, but fans who have watched the preseason game between the Lakers and the Suns will definitely be impressed by him.

On October 15th, the Suns faced the Lakers at home. In that game, the Suns played all substitute lineups, of which Butler and Goodwin both started. Their opponent was the Lakers' full main lineup. Doncic and Rivers all played. I thought the Lakers had a diamond in their hands in this game. But what I didn't expect was that Doncic and Rivers became Butler's cash machines.

In the whole game, Butler made 14 of 25 shots, with a shooting percentage of 56%. He scored 35+7+9, and finally led the Suns to a 113:104 victory over the Lakers. Facing two All-Star players, Butler became famous in one battle. However, even with such an outstanding performance, he was waived.

Butler is only 25 years old this year. He played in the Development League last season and averaged 22.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game. He once played in the regular season for a year with the 76ers, averaging close to 12 points and 5 assists per game. Not long ago, the Suns officially announced that Butler was waived.

While laying off Butler, the Suns chose to give the last standard contract to Goodwin, and this player also played for the Lakers last season. Also in the game against the Lakers, he scored 24 points, 4 rebounds, and 6 assists. If the Suns had not given this contract in time, he would have had to play in the Development League again.

Compared to Zeng Fanbo, whether it is Butler, Goodwin, or the above-mentioned Bamba, they are far stronger than Zeng Fanbo. Even taking Bamba as an example, he performed better than Xiao Yang in the previous game against Yang Hansen. Players with such strength have been waived. So what about Zeng Fanbo?

After playing in the NBA China game, Zeng Fanbo returned to the United States to continue his recovery. In fact, he is now able to play games. The so-called recovery is just a pretext. When he returns to the United States, he still wants to find opportunities to continue playing.

Regarding this issue, the Nets head coach once said that Zeng Fanbo's performance in the training camp was indeed positive, but if he wants to play in the NBA, he is not currently strong enough. If he really wants to play, it will be in the Development League.

Then a new question arises. If Yang Hansen plays in the Development League, how meaningful will it be? The Butler mentioned above has been playing in the Development League for five or six years, but in the end he still had no chance to play in the NBA. Zeng Fanbo is in the same situation. Even if he plays in the Development League for a few years, it may still be very difficult to play in the NBA. In this case, there is no need to stay in the United States. It is better to return to the Beijing team as soon as possible and help the team compete for the CBA championship.

In fact, in this regard, Zeng Fanbo's teammate Zhou Qi is quite open-minded. After being drafted by the NBA in the early days, he actually found out through game after game that he could not survive in the NBA. It would be better to return to the CBA early, including the previous Yi Jianlian. Even with Alian's talent, he could not stay in the NBA, let alone Zeng Fanbo.

Of course, there is another situation where the NBA team provides Zeng Fanbo with a two-way contract, or a non-guaranteed contract, but the nature of this situation changes, just like the Nets previously signed a 10-day short contract with Zeng Fanbo Likewise, the purpose of signing you is to allow you to advertise for free, and then the boss will make money. The Nets’ previous signing and two games were estimated to have earned 300 million yuan. The arena with 15,000 people was packed to capacity, and the highest ticket price reached 220,000 yuan.

The owner of the Nets really made a good calculation. He used Zeng Fanbo to advertise and made a lot of money. The reward was 10 minutes of playing time without any additional expenditure. Therefore, it is possible that other teams will offer Zeng Fanbo a contract, but that is to make money, not to let you play games.

So, we have always said that players should go out and improve their abilities, whether it is helpful to themselves or to the national team. There is nothing wrong with this statement at all. But going out doesn’t necessarily mean you have to play in the NBA. The NBA that Zhou Qi played for before, including the La Liga game that Yu Jiahao is currently playing in, can be played, and it is more suitable.

NBA games advocate individual heroism, and the ball rights are concentrated in the hands of the stars. Other players have a single function, either doing dirty work or just shooting 3-pointers. European basketball, on the other hand, pays more attention to basic skills and tactics, and the threshold is lower. This is the best destination for most of our local players to go abroad.
