On June 22, according to a post by media person “Detective Zhao from the Basketball Circle,” in his latest interview, Xirelijiang stated that the new season goal for Nanjing Tongxi is to qualify for the playoffs.
Last season, Nanjing Tongxi finished 13th in the CBA regular season with a record of 23 wins and 29 losses, narrowly missing the playoffs. They had a chance to secure a playoff spot until the very end but fell short. As a player, Xirelijiang appeared in 30 games, averaging 24 minutes and 3 seconds on court per game, scoring 4.2 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 4.1 assists. His shooting percentage was only 33.3%, which was not considered outstanding. It’s no surprise that some fans jokingly commented on Xirelijiang’s playoff ambition, questioning if Player Xirelijiang was aware of Coach Xirelijiang’s plans. Nevertheless, the improvement of Nanjing Tongxi over the past two years has been evident, and a step forward from 13th place is indeed expected. However, considering the impressive performance of Blakeley last season and the current uncertainty around Nanjing’s foreign players, it remains to be seen how things will unfold.
