Taking stock of the foreign players of the Shanxi Men s Basketball Team over the years, who is everyone s disapproval of?

Recently, everyone is paying close attention to the foreign aid situation of our Shanxi Men's Basketball Team in the new season. The fourth foreign aid has not yet been determined. At this moment, we might as well review the foreign players selected by the Shanxi Men's Basketball Team over the years to see who everyone still remembers.

I would like to state in advance that if there is anything wrong, please bear with me!

2006-2007 season: First time in the CBA, frequent replacement of foreign players, the actual effect is average

Rasheed Barkley: Inside foreign player, average ability, failed to leave a deep impression on people.

Damon King: Defender foreign aid, also performed mediocrely.

Lee Dutton: The foreign player was replaced midway through the season, but failed to change the team's poor record.

Summary of the season: The selection of foreign aid failed, and the team is in the stage of adaptation and exploration.

2007-2008 season: a single foreign player played

This season, the Shanxi team played with a single foreign player most of the time.

Wengert Miller: The foreign center that the team mainly relies on has acceptable rebounding ability, but his offensive methods are relatively simple.

Season summary: The foreign aid configuration is weak and the team's competitiveness is still insufficient.

2008-2009 season: "Bunch Wells" effect

This is a landmark event in the history of the Shanxi team and the history of the CBA.

Bunch Wells: Former NBA Rockets star, nicknamed "The Stick." His joining caused a huge sensation and he was one of the biggest foreign players in the CBA at the time. He scored 48 points in his debut, showing his strong personal ability. But it doesn't have a good ending, which is disappointing.

·Olamed Odeje: Nigerian center, an old acquaintance of CBA. Joining after Wells left, he was conscientious, rebounded and defended extremely well, and was the backbone of the team in the second half of that season.

Dotta Smith: The defender who partnered with Wells at the beginning of the season, and later returned in the 2009-10 season.

Summary of the season: Superstars were introduced, but failed to end well. The team began to try the "superstar policy".

2009-2010 season: The arrival of the "lone wolf"

The Shanxi team continued to implement the superstar policy and welcomed another star who changed the history of the CBA.

Stephen Marbury: Joined midway in January 2010, replacing Dotta Smith. Although he had not yet reached the leadership height he would later achieve with the Beijing team, his top-notch court control and personal skills were undoubtedly revealed, bringing unprecedented attention to Shanxi basketball and Chinese basketball.

Lee Benson: A legendary foreign aid with extremely comprehensive scoring ability (once scored 65 points in a single game). His short partnership with Marbury is exciting.

Sam Hussain: Asian foreign aid.

Season summary: Marbury's joining is of historic significance, opening the prelude to the "Marbury Era" of the CBA.

2010-2011 season: pragmatism in the post-Marbury era

Marbury moved to Foshan, and the Shanxi team chose younger, more immediate NBA rotation-level players.

Sam Young: The former swingman of the NBA Memphis Grizzlies. In his playing years, he had excellent physical fitness and was the team's leading scorer.

Darius Singleton: Former NBA player, blue-collar inside, very solid in rebounding and defense.

Season summary: The selection of foreign players is very successful. Both are at the peak of their careers, practical and efficient, and have laid a good foundation for the team.

2011-2012 season: the legendary "pants combination"

This is the most successful and most popular season in the history of the Shanxi team, and the foreign aid combination plays an important role.

Marcus Williams: Guard, with great scoring ability, especially good at shooting at critical moments.

Charles Ganis: A beast inside, with a strong body, excellent finishing ability at the basket and excellent rebounding.

Combination effect: The two were called the "Pants Combination" (a homophony of "Marcus" and "Charles"), creating a huge chemical reaction. They led the Shanxi team to the CBA semifinals historically, and fought the eventual champion Beijing team for five games before losing. This season is one of the peaks of the Shanxi men's basketball team. Of course, everyone knows the specific reasons.

2012-2013 season: retain the core and achieve greater results

The team retained the successful "pants combination" and introduced powerful Asian foreign players.

Marcus Williams & Charles Ganis: Continue to partner, and the power remains unchanged.

Ma Danli: A Syrian-born shooter, nicknamed "Asian Jordan". His addition gives the Shanxi team the powerful firepower of three foreign players.

Season summary: The lineup is stable and strong. It once again entered the playoffs and showed strong competitiveness.

2013-2014 season: The disintegration of "Pants" and Marcus' suspension

This was a turbulent season.

·Charles Ganis: Stay on the team.

Marcus Williams: Being suspended for personal reasons does have a big impact.

Jeremy Taylor: As a replacement, a former NBA player with outstanding talent but a unique style of play.

Varrick: Replaced Taylor midway through the season. He is also a former NBA star with explosive physical fitness.

Season summary: The suspension of core foreign players has seriously affected the team's stability and record.

2014-2015 season: Abbas's "three foreign aids" bonus

The team has three foreign aid qualifications, forming a classic combination.

Abbas: Asian foreign player, has the famous "Abbas' Law" (his team must enter the playoffs).

Weaver: Former Rockets player, forward and guard with outstanding scoring ability.

Taylor: A powerful insider.

This combination successfully brought the Shanxi team back to the playoffs again.

2015-2016 season: "Triple-double King" Franklin Era

This is the arrival of another iconic foreign aid for the Shanxi team.

Jamal Franklin: A super all-around defender, he scored multiple triple-doubles in his first season with the Shanxi team, showing his comprehensive organizational, scoring and rebounding abilities and becoming the absolute core of the team.

Gates/Porter: There have been changes in the position of big foreign players, but their performance is quite satisfactory.

Season summary: Franklin established his core position and started his path to superstardom in the CBA.

2016-2017 season & 2017-2018 season: Franklin and Scola's partnership

In these two seasons, the Shanxi team basically used Franklin as the core, with different big foreign players.

Jamal Franklin: Continued outstanding performance.

Dalembert (16-17): Former NBA defensive center.

Scola (17-18): Former NBA superstar and Argentine legend. Although he is old, his skills, experience and professional attitude are impeccable.

2018-2019 Season & 2019-2020 Season: Muhammad’s Short-lived Glory

Shabazz Muhammad: A former NBA lottery pick with explosive scoring ability, he is one of the top scorers in the CBA. His backcourt combination with Franklin was once expected, but ultimately failed to achieve the desired effect.

Bobby Brown: A famous scorer who also played briefly.

Morand: Joined at a later stage and later became a hero of the championship in Liaoning.

2020-2021 season so far: The new era led by Felder

Kai Felder: A small defender with fast speed, sharp breakthroughs, and excellent organizational skills, he has become the new backcourt engine of the Shanxi team. His performance was also successfully selected into the CBA best international player team.

Simmons: Former NBA player with excellent physical fitness.

In recent seasons, the Shanxi team has a very clear idea of ​​team building: using a core small foreign player as the engine, paired with different types of large foreign players, to create a "run and gun" style that focuses on fast offense and three-point shooting.

2020-2021 season: The beginning of the post-Franklin era

This season is a transition period. The team’s meritorious foreign aid Jamal Franklin was in poor condition due to injury at the beginning of the season, and then parted ways with the team. The Shanxi team entered the exploration stage of a new foreign aid combination.

Eric Morand

stayed with the team at the beginning of the season. He is a top defender and rebounder in the CBA, with excellent rim protection and pie-eating abilities. But midway through the season, he was traded to the Liaoning Men's Basketball Team and won consecutive championships with the Liaoning team.

Jamal Franklin

Due to injury at the beginning of the season, his performance did not meet expectations, and his cooperation with the team came to an end, and then he left.

After Franklin left, he joined as a fire-fighting foreign aid at the end of the season, and his performance was quite satisfactory.

Season summary: Foreign aid changes frequently, core members leave the team, and the team is in a period of pain.

2021-2022 season: The advent of the "Feld Era" and the new "underpants combination"

This season, the Shanxi team found a new backcourt core and formed a new foreign aid combination with excellent results, and its record improved significantly.

Kay Feld, absolute core. The small defender, who is only 1.75 meters tall, quickly became the brains and engine of the team. He has strong personal scoring ability, excellent passing vision and a big heart at critical moments. His joining completely activated the Shanxi team's offensive system, and he was selected into the CBA's best international player lineup that season.

Jonathan Simmons, a former NBA player, has outstanding physical talent and strong impact. The "double backcourt" formed by him and Felder is very powerful and is a key figure in the team's return to the playoffs.

Season summary: The combination of Felder and Simmons is regarded by fans as a new or bankrupt version of the "pants combination". They led the Shanxi team to perform brilliantly and successfully entered the playoffs.

2022-2023 season: stability and fine-tuning

The team basically retains the core framework and attempts to upgrade the position of large foreign players.

Kai Felder continues to be the core. His performance has been consistent and he is one of the top defenders in the league.

Jonathan Simmons stayed with the team at the beginning of the season, but his condition declined and he was terminated from the team in the middle.

Greg Monroe, as a major signing, replaced Simmons in the middle of the season. The former NBA star has exquisite skills and first-class coping skills. But his movement speed is slow and his defensive effect is average.
