99-125 Shanxi men's basketball team, Guangdong men's basketball team once again upset and lost. Suffered a fiasco, but the Guangdong men's basketball team also had a bright spot in this game, that is, the interior genius Xu Xin has a high level of play. Played 9 minutes and got 4 points and 4 rebounds. The bigger highlight was on the defensive end, where he delivered 2 blocks.
The basket can be protected because Xu Xin is 2.26 meters tall, has a long arm span and a large control area. It also lies in Xu Xin's flexible movement and excellent defensive awareness. Xu Xin has become a super gate, and his outbreak is like a long drought for the Guangdong men's basketball team.
The Guangdong men's basketball team has been continuously upset by the Guangsha men's basketball team and the Shanxi men's basketball team, largely because the internal line cannot be defended. At the peak of Yi Jianlian, he was a local brother, with strong offensive firepower and the defensive end could also act as a gate. But after returning from injury this season, Yi Jianlian's offensive end has been unable to find a state, and the defensive end has lost its power. As for Su Wei because of his age and weight, his role in dealing with the speed team is not too big.
Zeng Fanri has very little playing time in these 2 games, but even if he plays more, it is difficult to protect the basket because of his limited height. The Guangdong men's basketball team needs a new defensive gate, and Xu Xin has the potential to play this role. This big man of 2.26 meters was the defensive core of the Guangdong youth team when he was in the youth team. When representing the Guangdong U19 men's basketball team in the National Games this year, Xu Xin also had a bright performance on the defensive end.
The only problem is that the Guangdong men's basketball team is very conservative about Xu Xin's use and does not dare to let him play more. Xu Xin entered the CBA this season, but it was not until the second stage that he was able to play, and he only played 3 minutes. In this game, Xu Xin performed eye-catchingly, and only played for 9 minutes. For the Guangdong men's basketball team, it may be time to vigorously use Xu Xin. First, because the Guangdong men's basketball team needs him, and judging from the performance of these two games, he is also ready.
In fact, Xu Xin can dedicate not only defense, but also has a sense of presence in attack. In the last game, against the Guangsha men's basketball team, Xu Xin received the ball on the inside line, turned around and shot in one go, with excellent flexibility and rhythm. If he can continue to get opportunities, Xu Xin can also pick the big beam on the offensive end.
At present, Xu Xin is relatively inexperienced, and with the increase of game time, he can do a good job. Losing two games in a row is not a small blow to the defending champion, but if the Guangdong men's basketball team accelerates the cultivation of Xu Xin, there may be unexpected surprises.
