With Guangdong losing to Liaoning in the semi-finals, they failed to create miracles in the fifth world war. Unfortunately, they lost to Liaoning in the total score of 2-3. There are too many problems in Guangdong that need to be solved this summer. In the post Yi Jianlian era, Guangdong is still far away from the championship, even if it was one step away from the finals. Guangdong has too much work to do this summer, and the first thing will be to renew Zhou Qi's contract. However, Liaoning, Beijing, Shanghai and other teams will probably join the competition for Zhou Qi. After all, Zhou Qi's contract has expired this summer.
Where will Zhou Qi go when his one-year contract expires?
The "farce" between Zhou Qi and Xinjiang ended last summer, and was solved before the Basketball World Cup. Guangdong and Xinjiang exchanged extreme one for one, and Zhao Rui traded for Zhou Qi. It's just that Zhou Qi "handles special affairs" and only signs a one-year Class D contract with Guangdong. Zhou Qi's contract will expire this summer.
There is no doubt that "where does Zhou Qi go" is in the past few years, This is a topic that CBA will put on during the off season every year. When Zhou Qi's contract expires this summer, the topic of "where Zhou Qi will go" is bound to play again. Whether Zhou Qi is willing to renew his contract in Guangdong and whether he will choose to join other teams are still unknown.
Can Guangdong miss the finals and keep Zhou Qi?
Although Guangdong is one of the top four in the playoffs this year, compared with the top eight in the playoffs last season, and has made further progress, it is an indisputable fact that they once again failed to qualify for the finals. In Liaoning, the team advanced to the finals and staged the "Liaojiang Duel" with Xinjiang. Guangdong failed to win the championship in another year.
Although Guangdong was able to offer Zhou Qi a top salary renewal contract, the current top salary contract is actually not attractive. After all, the annual salary of the top salary contract is only 6 million yuan, which is not attractive to Zhou Qi's local top stars. Zhou Qi's choice of the next home may be based on a comprehensive consideration of the contract, the prospect of winning the championship, as well as commercial development and other aspects.
Liaoning, Beijing, Shanghai and other teams may compete for Zhou Qi again this summer.
Once Zhou Qi doesn't renew his contract with Guangdong, or he doesn't express a clear intention to renew his contract, there is no doubt that other teams will compete for Zhou Qi, especially Shanghai, Beijing and other teams joined Zhou Qi's competition last year.
As for Liaoning, which has eliminated Guangdong, they are also potential suitors of Zhou Qi. His hometown team will be attractive to Zhou Qi, and Liaoning's strong strength can also let Zhou Qi attack the championship. Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly difficult for Guangdong to renew the contract to retain Zhou Qi.
