Report: Beijing Team is considering replacing Morris
Thread Content
According to reports from Storm Sports on December 8th, Beijing Team is considering replacing its foreign player in the frontcourt due to Morris’ declining form this season. This season is Morris’s 7th season playing for the Beijing team, with average stats of 22.6 points and 9.3 rebounds per game – the lowest figures of his CBA career. In his last two games, Morris’s scoring total has been below 20 points. In the most recent match, where Beijing lost to Jilin by 1 point, Morris scored 19 points but had a shooting accuracy of only 33%. As of now, Beijing has a record of 9 wins and 6 losses, placing them in 7th place on the league table. This season is very likely to be Marbury’s last before retiring, so for the Beijing team, which hopes to win a championship once again, they also expect greater contributions from players in all positions, especially the foreign players. Regarding the news of a foreign player replacement, Sina Sports journalists contacted the Beijing team for confirmation, but no official response has been received yet.
Marbury can’t do it either! Changing to Morris isn’t of much use. This season should be the worst one for the Beijing team!
Beijing actually has plenty of money, but bringing in foreign players would mean starting from scratch, and that would require giving up Marbury as well; it’s a too big a change, so Beijing’s leadership will be hesitant
It’s normal for the Beijing team to perform poorly and to bring in foreign players. If Marbury doesn’t perform well this year, he might become a coach in Beijing’s coaching staff or a team advisor next year
