On December 25, Beijing time, the CBA regular season resumed after a month, and the second phase officially began, with the first game being played by Fujian against Shanxi. There are a number of foreign aides in this game, Fujian has Gordon, and Shanxi has a double foreign aid combination of Felder and Jonathan Simmons.
Throughout the first quarter of the game, the Shanxi men's basketball team played an incredible offensive performance, the whole team three points 8 7, a single quarter bombed 40 points, in one fell swoop played 40-25 single quarter score, a quarter of time to lead to 15 points. Entering the second quarter, the offensive firepower of the Shanxi team still did not stop, Liaoning veteran Simmons scored 8 points in 3 of 4 single quarters, and Shanxi scored 35 points in the entire second quarter. After half-time, Shanxi has scored 75 points to lead Fujian by 17 points at 75-58.
In the first half of the game, Shanxi's attack was outstanding enough, the whole team scored 9 of 10 three points, as many as 3 people scored in double figures, and the local core scorer Yuan Shuai was 4 of 5 in the half. It is worth mentioning that the newly added foreign aid Simmons of the Shanxi team performed well, only 5 of 4 in the halftime, hit 1 three-pointer to win 11 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, and the original in the Liaoning team was completely different, Simmons quickly integrated into the Shanxi team's system, bringing help to the team, impact and shooting ability can be shown.
Simmons briefly played 16 games for the Liaoning men's basketball team in the 20-21 season, averaging only 9 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game, and finally broke up with Liaoning. This return to the CBA League, presumably Simmons has made sufficient preparations, as a former NBA main rotation player, Simmons has the strength to stand in the CBA League and even play excellent performances.
The other protagonist of this game, the Fujian men's basketball team, even if the foreign aid Gordon returns, but still exposes the problem of poor defensive ability, the third quarter hit the middle, Fujian team has been cut by the Shanxi team 90 points. This is enough to reflect the poor defensive end of the Fujian team, in addition, the offensive end is overly dependent on Gordon, after playing two and a half quarters, the whole team only scored in double figures, 8 of 19 scored 20 points and 5 assists, the rest of the players scored the highest points was Ou Junxuan scored 9 points, and the core Chen Linjian scored only 3 points in 4 of 1. The Shanxi team has scored more than 100 points before the third quarter of the game.
It can be seen that the current Fujian team is still the bottom level of the league, even if it is to join a foreign aid with strong comprehensive ability, it is still unable to change the situation. On the other hand, the Shanxi team has a complete system, with two foreign aides sitting in the seat, and it is hoped to win more games in the second stage and strive to improve the ranking.
