The Guangdong men's basketball team is really only one step away from the "tenth championship" they set at the beginning of the season.
on August 11th, Beijing time, the CBA finals kicked off in Qingdao. Due to the epidemic, the schedule of the finals was shortened to "two wins in three games". In the end, the defending champion Guangdong men's basketball team won a good start and beat Liaoning men's basketball team 11-88.
Han Dejun confronted Yi Jianlian.
the last time the two teams met in the finals, it was 12 years ago. At that time, the Guangdong men's basketball team easily defeated the Liaoning men's basketball team with a total score of 4 to 1, and won the fourth championship trophy in team history.
that year, Zhou Peng and Su Wei of Guangdong men's basketball team were still young players in the team, and Han Dejun of Liaoning men's basketball team was only 2 years old-now, Du Feng and Yang Ming, who were still wearing the team in the finals that year, have become the team's coach.
"The Liaoning team is relatively neat, and there are very powerful players in every position, especially the recent Han Dejun, which has played a great role." Before the finals, Du Feng also praised the current situation of Liaoning Men's Basketball Team in an interview with the media.
Although Yi Jianlian didn't score many points, he was the absolute core of Guangdong team.
In fact, Du Feng knows this old rival well-the last time they met in the playoffs, the Liaoning men's basketball team eliminated the Guangdong men's basketball team 4-1 in the semi-final and finally reached the finals, and won the championship trophy for the first time and took off the hat of "the second child of the Millennium".
"The age structure of Liaoning team is also more mature than ours." Because of this, as coach Du Feng said before the game, Guangdong men's basketball team can't underestimate the enemy.
However, compared with the results of the regular season and the performance of the semi-finals, the Guangdong men's basketball team is indeed closer to the championship.
According to the official statistics of CBA, although the offensive data of Guangdong men's basketball team and Liaoning men's basketball team are the top two in the league after the rematch, Guangdong men's basketball team almost completely suppressed Liaoning men's basketball team-every 1 rounds, Guangdong men's basketball team can get 4 more points; Effective hit rate, Guangdong men's basketball team leads with 59.2% to 58.9%; The offensive rebound rate, Guangdong men's basketball team is 46% to 38.6% to suppress opponents.
Guo Ailun breaks through Yi Jianlian's defense.
data don't lie. At the beginning of the finals, coach Du Feng sent three strikers, weems, Ren Junfei and Zhou Peng, to match center Yi Jianlian, while only Han Dejun in Liaoning men's basketball team struggled inside, while He Tianju continued the ups and downs in the semi-finals, and it was difficult to find the state at both ends of the offense and defense.
However, with the deepening of the game, the hard work of the Liaoning men's basketball team helped them grab more rebounds. When Du Feng called out the first timeout, the Liaoning men's basketball team had seven more rebounds than the Guangdong men's basketball team, and the score was 11-1, which reversed the situation.
After a pause, Du Feng's adjustment immediately achieved results, but OJ Mayo's inward and outward throw helped Liaoning men's basketball team occupy a slight advantage. If it weren't for the two three-pointers of Guangdong teenager Wang Xingkai, the Guangdong men's basketball team might have difficulty biting the score.
Zhao Rui's breakthrough is very threatening.
"I used to ask him why he came to Hongyuan. He said Hongyuan needed me. At that time, I almost fainted. I always took his words as a joke. But in fact, he is a very hard-working, serious and hard-working child. He works very hard in training. "
Coach Du Feng affirmed Wang Jikai's role in the Guangdong men's basketball team before the game, which is why Du Feng replaced him in the first quarter of the finals. "The training has met my requirements, and they will be given more responsibilities in the game."
With a slight advantage of 1 point, the Guangdong men's basketball team entered the second quarter 25-24.
Du Runwang hit a three-pointer on the whistle in the first quarter.
Subsequently, Zhou Peng and weems began to create damage in the front line, but the Liaoning men's basketball team suddenly felt nothing, and the outside shots repeatedly bounced out of the basket ... The Guangdong men's basketball team took this opportunity to open the score to 1 points.
During the transition between attack and defense, the score difference also hovered around 1 points, but Zhao Jiwei's two three-pointers before the halftime whistle narrowed the score difference to 5 points. At the end of half-time, Guangdong men's basketball team led 55-5 without Yi Jianlian scoring a point.
Zhao Jiwei also hit the buzzer for three points in the second quarter.
Yi Bian fought again, Liaoning men's basketball team once overtook the score in the third quarter, and Guangdong center Su Wei was sent off for two technical fouls.
But then Zhou Peng scored 3 points and 2+1, which helped Guangdong regain the lead at the last minute.
In the fourth quarter, the Guangdong team firmly controlled the situation on the field, once scored a small climax of 14- at the beginning and kept the lead.
in the end, the Guangdong men's basketball team got off to a good start in the finals-this victory was different from the past, because the finals under the epidemic situation were changed to "two wins in three wars", and one victory meant that it was only one step away from the championship.
Before the game, the champion Ding, which symbolizes the highest honor of CBA, has appeared on the field, waiting for the king of this season to lift it up.
