CBA regular season continues, Guangdong team 105-84 victory over Tianjin team. In this game, Guangdong defender Xu Jie's performance was not very satisfactory. He played 24 minutes off the bench and only scored 2 points on 1 of 5 shots. Although he also contributed 7 assists and 3 rebounds, his hand feel was really bad. As the brain of the Guangdong team's bench, Xu Jie plays a very important role in the Guangdong team. Whether it is passing or defending, he has an irreplaceable effect on the Guangdong team's bench. But as a small defender, Xu Jie suffers from offensive end. His height of 1.78 meters makes him limited on offensive end. For this reason, whenever there is an opportunity, he had better grasp the opportunity well, otherwise, his height disadvantage is bound to be targeted by the opponent.
Of course, Xu Jie is capable of offensive. This season, he averaged 8.1 points in 21.7 minutes per game, but he should only score 2 points in this match against Tianjin. After all, the Tianjin team is currently ranked first from the bottom, and their strength is far behind the Guangdong team. In this game, Tianjin's big foreign aid Todorovich also missed the game, which made the Tianjin team even more uncompetitive. But facing such an opponent, Xu Jie's performance is obviously not ideal.
As a small player, Xu Jie's breakthrough power is very average, but what he is good at is throwing after the breakthrough, so as to make up for the huge disadvantage of height. At the same time, his ability to grasp the three-pointer is also good, but in this match against the Tianjin team, he did not show it. Instead, he only made 0 of 2 three-pointers. So far this season, Xu Jie’s three-point shooting percentage is only 33%. Although he can make a career-high 1.2 three-pointers per game, his shooting percentage is not ideal. You must know his rookie season. The rate is 44%, and he averages 0.8 three-pointers per game. For a small player, it is also necessary to have a very high three-pointer shooting rate, but also to maintain sufficient high productivity, so as to further increase their threat on the offensive end, thereby making up for the lack of height.
This is the third season of Xu Jie's career. In fact, he has reached the stage where he needs to break out. This season, Yi Jianlian's serious injury has brought a very big impact to the Guangdong team. With the huge gap between the strength of other local insiders and Yi Jianlian, the Guangdong team also needs outside players to take on more responsibilities. As an important member of the bench, Xu Jie's performance is obviously not particularly ideal.
This season, he has scored in double figures in only 6 of his 18 games. Considering the importance of Xu Jie in the Guangdong team, considering that the Guangdong team is still very fast this season, the average scoring is still ranked first in the league, for this reason, Xu Jie’s scoring is not outstanding, and it is also fluctuating. It is worrying. After all, only a better performance in the regular season can lay the foundation for the playoffs. If the ups and downs of the regular season are too large, it will inevitably affect the performance in the playoffs. Considering that the goal of the Guangdong team this season is still to defend the title and win three consecutive championships, Xu Jie, the bench brain of the Guangdong team, really has to maintain a more stable performance.
