15th, CBA Guangdong team confronted Shenzhen team. This game was the first time that Zhou Peng faced Guangdong team after transferring from Guangdong team to Shenzhen team this summer. In the end, Shenzhen team narrowly defeated Guangdong team 91-90, ending its 18-game losing streak against the latter.
Before the game, Zhou Peng tried to downplay the game as much as possible. He said that this was just an ordinary regular season game, just prepare normally. During the game, Zhou Peng's overall performance was not outstanding. He played for less than 26 minutes in total and scored 13 points. But after the game, Zhou Peng's relationship with the Guangdong team remains the same, just as Guangdong team head coach Du Feng said: "No matter where Zhou Peng goes, he is a member of the Guangdong team."
After the end of last season, Zhou Peng's contract with Guangdong team expired. Although the Guangdong team wanted to keep Zhou Peng, it did not succeed in the end. The two sides have some differences on the issue of contract renewal and cannot reach an agreement. After that, Zhou Peng joined the Shenzhen team and he also ushered in a new journey. Zhou Peng was once the captain of the Guangdong team and an iconic figure of the team. Therefore, Zhou Peng's departure from the Guangdong team was a major event in the CBA this summer.
htmlOn 15, the third round of the league match between Guangdong and Shenzhen teams was the first time Zhou Peng faced his old club after he left Guangdong team. Zhou Peng has not been in the Shenzhen team for a long time, and he still needs some time to better integrate and show his own characteristics. Zhou Peng was not very efficient in this game. In the whole game, he scored 13 points, made 5 of 11 shots, with a shooting percentage of 45%, of which the three-point shooting percentage was relatively low.
The most important player for Shenzhen team to win in this game was Gu Quan. He scored 8 three-pointers by himself and scored 32 points. Through the training and competitions of the national team this summer, Gu Quan has improved his abilities and competitive temperament.
Although it became an opponent on the field, Zhou Peng and Guangdong team will still be good brothers next court. Guangdong team head coach Du Feng said: "No matter where he goes, he will always be a part of our collective. No one will forget his contribution to the team over the years. I hope he shines in the new team and continues to bring energy to the Shenzhen team. The new team and the new season will perform better."
