After missing nearly two months of matches, Yu Changdong made a comeback in the match between Beijing Control and Guangdong. He played a near-perfect performance in the game and helped Beijing Control achieve an unexpected victory.
Yu Changdong was the second local scorer in the North Control team last season and has been the team's starting player this season. After a match against Shanghai in mid-January, he was included in the injury squad.
In this match with Guangdong, Marbury strategically gave up and suspended the four main players Liao Sanning, Zhang Fan, Todorovic and Hou Yifan. Yu Changdong returned from injury and returned to the competition list. Marbury did not let Yu Changdong start, but let Wang Shaojie and Sun Tonglin start together, and Yu Changdong played as a substitute. Marbury intends to let Yu Changdong find a sense of the game in preparation for the next showdown with Tianjin.
However, after Yu Changdong appeared on the scene, he killed the red eye and constantly attacked the internal line of Guangdong. Tackling under the basket, three-pointers on the outside, and protecting rebounds are all doing a great job. In the first half, Yu Changdong only played 10 minutes and 51 seconds before cutting down 11 points and 4 rebounds.
Yu Changdong's performance is like he has never missed a game. He played 25 minutes, scoring 16 points, 5 rebounds and 1 steal, shooting 5 of 5 from 2 points and shooting 100% from the field. The shortcomings of Guangdong's inner line are vulnerable to the joint impact of Yu Changdong and Haas.
In the inner line group of North Control, Yu Changdong is the most trusted and relied on by Marbury. During Yu Changdong's absence, Beijing Control went from a good situation in the playoffs to a precarious situation. Before the match against Guangdong, Beijing Control had lost five of its last six games.
In attack, Yu Changdong can be inside and outside, and has a good ability to attack independently. The maneuverability, confrontation and top-grab rebounds in defense are excellent. After Zou Yuchen was reimbursed for the Wei foot season with Shougang, Yu Changdong's burden was heavier. Sun Tong Lin Ce should be stronger than the attack, Wang Shaojie has been in poor shape this season, there are few performances, in addition to Todorovic, Yu Changdong is the absolute pillar and core of North Control.
Before the decisive battle with Tianjin, it was a pity to win an unexpected victory for Beijing Control. But Yu Changdong's bloody return is the biggest benefit for the team.
Yu Changdong is the top salary player in the North Control team, and he has also won the championship with Xinjiang, can fight hard battles, and is a big-scene player. He returned from injury in time and was in excellent condition, allowing Marbury to take a reassuring pill before the life-and-death battle with Tianjin.
