On January 12, Beijing time, Guangdong will play against Liaoning at 7:30 tonight, and the duel between the two sides is a major event every year, but this game is missing because of Zhao Rui's absence, and the game has a lot less to watch.
On New Year's Day of the season, the two teams met for the first time, Liaoning won by 20 points over Guangdong, Liaoning had a neat lineup, a deep bench, a particularly reasonable rotation of the whole field, and the players were fully rested. So the whole game suppressed the Guangdong team, holding the initiative of the game, and the Guangdong team lacked Zhao Rui and Su Wei, two major generals, plus the UAE League did not have a substitute, resulting in physical weakness, and finally lost the game, after the game, Guangdong coach Du Feng said that he would drool when he saw the lineup of the Liaoning team. The reason for the Loss of the Guangdong team is that the inside and outside lines can not prevent the Liaoning team, and han Dejun and Moland take turns on the inside line, resulting in excessive consumption in the UAE League, shooting 6 of 0, only 3 points and 5 rebounds. On the outside, Zhao Rui was not there, Hu Mingxuan was invisible for most of the game, and the Guangdong team did not have anyone who could restrain Guo Allen, and finally let Guo Allen play 28 minutes and score 22 points.
Tonight the two teams will meet again, which should have been a visual feast, but the Guangdong team personnel are still not in place, plus there are many injuries in the team, and the UAE League has no substitutes. Moreover, the Liaoning team is strong and strong, the thickness of the lineup is deep, and it is not afraid of consuming physical strength, and the team members are even more desperate to defend, so the Guangdong team will most likely lose.
To tell the truth, Guangdong only has a single foreign aid, but also injured Zhao Rui, Xu Xin, Hu Mingxuan this season has not played well, lack of major generals have been injured in the camp. The Liaoning team is a double foreign aid, the lineup is neat, plus Guo Allen, who no one can restrain. It is unlikely that the Guangdong team wants to avenge the Liaoning team. I just hope that the Guangdong team will not be crushed by the whole field like the first time, at least keep the suspense of the game to the end, and contribute a good-looking Liaoyue battle to the fans!
And Hu Mingxuan, as the most valuable player in last season's finals, did not play his value this season. After signing a contract with Adidas in the offseason, Hu Mingxuan seemed to have forgotten how to play, and his state fluctuated very badly! Many games are like not feeling his presence, it is difficult to help the Guangdong team on the offensive and defensive ends, and the playing does not have the hard work of last season, so that many fans have a lot of criticism of him.
This season's Zhao Rui can be described as the top defender in China, playing well in the World Preliminary Tournament, and was rated as one of the best defenders by FIBA, and his physical fitness was quite outstanding. However, due to the tight schedule, Zhao Rui also fell into injury trouble, and will not play again in the second stage. But the Guangdong team still has 7 games in the second stage, if Zhao Rui does not play, Hu Mingxuan does not carry the banner again, then the Guangdong team is afraid that it will be difficult to keep the top eight!
