On the second matchday of the second phase of the CBA regular season, Beijing Holdings welcomed its first opponent, Shanghai Jiushi. With a nearly 20-point lead in the first quarter, North Control suffered a major reversal, losing 83-102 to Shanghai and opening the door black.
In this game, the performance of The beijing control local inner line is a disaster. Yu Changdong, the starting inside lineman, played 30 minutes, contributed only 4 points and 7 rebounds, made as many as 5 turnovers, and only 1 shot on the inside of the game. Zou Yuchen, who came off the bench, had 2 points and 3 rebounds in 14 minutes and 2 turnovers. Another substitute, Wang Shaojie, an interior lineman, shot 0 of 5 in 20 minutes and did not score a single point.
Three local interior players, two are the team's top salary, and one is a guiyuan xiu, adding up to only 6 points.
Shanghai's two internal linemen, Wang Zhelin and new foreign aid Noah Von Lai, did whatever they wanted on the North Control interior line. VonLee scored 23 points and 15 rebounds, and Wang Zhelin had 20 points and 10 rebounds, both of which had double-doubles.
North Control's foreign aid center Haas has become a fig leaf for the team. He shot 10-of-16 and 7-of-7 from the free throw line in his 29-minute playing time, scoring a game-high 27 points and 14 rebounds. Without Haas's performance, North Control would have lost even worse. In the second half, when North Control was behind by the score, it did not show strong fighting spirit, and Haas became the most fighting player on the field.
On the offensive end, whether it is a low-post strong hit or a block-and-break end, Haas's efficiency is very high. On the defensive end, he also relied on his height of 2 meters 18, which caused a lot of trouble for Shanghai.
Haas is Marbury's sixth foreign center in three seasons since marbury took over from North Control, and none of del Guergado, Jason Thompson, Mertrey, Salah Meggerry and Yudo have played the entire season. Megeri played only two games, and Delgado was cut without playing in the regular season.
Thompson, Moretree, Meggerry and Yudo have all played in the NBA. Haas is the most veneerable of all the interior and outside players in the history of the North Control team.
Haas played for guangzhou dragon lions last season, making 54 appearances, averaging 10.5 points, 6.9 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 16.1 minutes per game. At that time, he was the third foreign aid of the team, not the main player, and the overall efficiency was not bad.
In the early days of joining North Control, Haas's performance was average, the movement rate was insufficient, and there were not many offensive means, which was considered by many people to be parallel goods. As the league deepened, Haas's role began to manifest itself. Especially in the local interior line continues to be unsatisfactory performance, Haas is even more indispensable.
In the first stage of The game in which Beijing Control defeated Shandong, Yu Changdong, Sun Tonglin and Wang Shaojie scored only 1 point in the first half. Haas attacked and defended one shoulder, almost single-handedly supporting the team's inner line.
Haas has averaged 14.2 points and 11 rebounds per game this season, which is the guarantee of the team's interior attack and defense. The 27 points scored in this game and Shanghai are also his highest single-game scores since joining Beijing Control. It is also his highest single-game score since coming to the CBA, and he scored 26 points a year ago after suffering six fouls in 24 minutes against Shandong.
Perhaps after the small foreign aid is in place, Haas will become an auxiliary foreign aid like the role played last season. But at least for now, he is still the main player of the North Control interior line.
