A focus battle in the 34th round of the CBA regular season was fought between Guangsha and Shanghai, and in the end, facing his former disciple, Li Chunjiang's Shanghai team lost to Guangsha 95-101, ending the winning streak, while Guangsha continued its seven-game winning streak.
One of the highlights of this game is the direct dialogue between Wang Zhelin, known as "China Okafor", and Guangsha Foreign Aid Okafor, known as "American Wang Zhelin".
The two have the same position and similar style, both are traditional interior lines that attack strong and defend weakly. Okafor was a probing flower of the former NBA draft, and Wang Zhelin was also selected by the Grizzlies in the 2016 NBA draft. No matter from which point of view, the head-to-head confrontation between the two has a full point of view.
In the end, Okafor, who had 13 points, 12 rebounds and 2 assists, won the game, and Wang Zhelin bombed 28 points, 17 rebounds, 3 blocks, 1 assist and 1 steal, but failed to lead the team to win. In other words, in this direct conversation, the former wins the game and the latter wins the stats.
In fact, the foreign aid of the two teams in this game has little impact on the game, and the reason why Guangsha can win the game is more dependent on the play of domestic players. Guangsha Sanshao Hu Jinqiu 19 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, Sun Minghui 20 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists, Zhao Yanhao 21 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 6 steals.
Except for Wang Zhelin, the performance of other players in the Shanghai team is not eye-catching. In the direct dialogue with Okafor, Wang Zhelin had the advantage, 11 of the 17 rebounds were frontcourt rebounds, but the helpless Guangsha Sanshao played too well.
Su Qun, who was a commentator on a platform, said bluntly during the live broadcast of the match: The foreign aid of the two teams played very well in this game. This, of course, also includes Okafor of Guangsha.
When directly opposed to Wang Zhelin, Okafor, who got the ball, always seemed very hesitant, and did not dare to play alone, and could only pass the ball out to rely on teammates to break through or bet on the shooting rate of teammates. Fortunately, the domestic players in Guangsha's game played well, otherwise the data was not dominant and lost the game, and Okafor could be regarded as being completely exploded by Wang Zhelin.
From this dialogue, it is enough to see why Okafor, who is a talent for the NBA draft, cannot survive in the NBA, and Wang Zhelin seems to be able to build a lot of confidence through this game, hoping that the king can realize the dream of the championship in Shanghai.
