January 5th, the second stage of the CBA this season has come to an end, and the Shanxi team has been in a sluggish state recently.
Media person Hou Xiangfeng clarified some rumors about the team’s salary arrears on social media.
“A few days ago, we media revealed that the Shanxi men’s basketball team owed wages. One stone caused a thousand waves and aroused strong repercussions in the society. The fans immediately attributed the reason for the loss to the club and management, and all kinds of accusations and abuse came out.
Come on. After confirming with the coaching staff and players of the Shanxi Men’s Basketball Team, the players’ wages were indeed in arrears last year, but they have been paid normally this season.” Hou Xiangfeng said.
Regarding the Shanxi team’s consecutive losses in the second stage and the serious decline in the team’s performance, Hou Xiangfeng said: “This is related to the fatigue of the players, the opponent’s research on the characteristics of the team, and the restrictions on the core players such as the original coach and foreign players.
It is an indisputable fact that Shanxi players have been greatly affected by the virus.”
So far, the Shanxi team has a record of 12 wins and 13 losses, ranking 15th in the league standings.
