On January 15, Beijing time, when the highly anticipated NBL's first "China Derby" was staged, due to Zhou Qi's Phoenix team being suspended 6-31 in the first quarter, the game lost suspense in advance. Zhou Qi not only ate fouls at the beginning of this campaign, but also played for more than 17 minutes in the whole game, scoring 2 points, 5 rebounds and 3 fouls on 1 of 3. In contrast, Liu Chuanxing, who was a substitute, played for more than 11 minutes, contributing 6 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block on 35 of the bench, playing his best game with the NBL, and the Phoenix team was beaten by the bullet team.
When three Chinese players compete in the Australian NBL League this season, it is naturally extremely exciting for them to play a derby match in the NBL. Among the 3 Chinese players who went to Play in Australia, only Zhou Qi has already sat in the position of the main player in the Phoenix team's internal line, while Liu Chuanxing is a substitute for the Bullets, and it is difficult for Li Hongquan to get playing time.
According to the statistics released by the broadcaster, among all 10 teams in the NBL, Liu Chuanxing's 2.25 meters is the first altitude, and Zhou Qi's 2.16 meters is the third altitude.
However, Zhou Qi and Liu Chuanxing did not have much time to compete in the same game, in the first round of the game, Zhou Qi elbowed the opponent Sobe in the face when attacking the card position, and the referee played the whistle to watch back the video, blowing and punishing Sobe's corporal foul, but also blowing Zhou Qi for a foul.
The Phoenix lost 25 points in the first quarter by the Bullets 6-31, and the Phoenix team made 2 of 19 in the first quarter, including 8 of 8 three points, plus 2 of 3 free throws. Zhou Qi played 4 minutes and 38 seconds, contributing 0 points, 1 rebound, 1 turnover and 2 fouls, which was undoubtedly quite bad. As for Liu Chuanxing's 3 minutes and 57 seconds in the first quarter, he scored 0 points and 1 assist on 1-of-1.
As for the second quarter of the game, Zhou Qi and Liu Chuanxing were not able to get the opportunity to play, and they did not play again until the second half. With about 6 minutes and 30 seconds left in the third quarter, Zhou Qi faced Liu Chuanxing's defense under the basket, and he successfully completed an air-to-air hit, becoming Zhou Qi's only offensive score in the game.
On the other hand, Liu Chuanxing played extremely well on the field, he played less than 4 minutes in the third quarter, but with the advantage of height, he repeatedly ate cakes inside, and scored 6 points in a single quarter with 3 of 5 crosshairs, only one free throw missed. As for the last quarter, Liu Chuanxing also received a big hat, even if he did not score in the fourth quarter, Liu Chuanxing's performance was still extremely outstanding.
