Live broadcast on October 10 news CBA regular season opener, Shenzhen 102-90 beat Shandong.
After the game, Ji mengnian, a reporter from Sports Weekly, wrote: “Zhou Peng’s first show in Shenzhen was flat, but the role of the defensive end was already obvious. In previous seasons, Shen Zijie had to make a choice when defending. If Yogueta is changed out, the inside line will lose its barrier. Yogueta stay in the basket, and you may be caught by your opponent after the block is removed. To some extent, Shen Zijie’s situation is somewhat similar to that of Gobel.
Now that Zhou Peng is here, he could have put pressure on the outside attack of the other party. In addition, Shen Zijie can also go out at relieve a garrison with confidence. Zhou Peng can not only prevent outside lines, but also protect RIM when turning to the basket. Zhou Peng and Shen Zijie are on the defensive side, and they are optimistic that Shenzhen will become one of the best teams in CBA defense in the new season. As for the offensive end, with the depth of the season, Zhou Peng’s prospective star will naturally be able to find it back.”
