After the 121-85 victory over the Sichuan men's basketball team, Liaoning has achieved a record of 29 wins and 6 losses, as long as the last few games are not pulled down, then they will lock in the regular season championship! In this game, the Liaoning men's basketball team scored in double figures, of which Guo Allen shot 12 of 20, three-pointers 3 of 2, cut the team's highest 30 points, unfortunately because the number of appearances is not up to standard, Guo Allen even if the performance is outstanding, he can not compete for this season's regular season MVP.
Fu Hao, who came off the bench, shot 11 from 14, including 4 of 4 three-pointers, very efficiently cut 26 points plus 4 rebounds, and now he seems to have found the feeling of playing in the Bayi team!
The third defender of the center-back team, Yan Tsurugi played 24 minutes in this game, with only 4 points and 2 assists, which is also a microcosm of his entire season. In order to give Zhao Jiwei and Guo Allen more rest time, Yang Ming deliberately increased the playing time of Yan Zhiqi this season, from 10 minutes in the season to 16.4 minutes in this season, but Yan Zhiqi's progress was not very obvious, and he could only hand over 3.9 points and 1.9 assists, the only good thing was that he could deliver 1 steal per game, bringing some help to the team's defense outside.
As an outside player, Yan Zhiqi's shooting rate is only 38%, and the three-point shooting rate is only 27%, which is the most important reason why he can't play, the shooting ability is too poor, even if Yang Ming gives him more opportunities, it may be difficult to achieve the desired effect. At the beginning, the Liaoning men's basketball team in order to strengthen the inner line, Gao Shiyan was loaned to the Shandong team, thus exchanging Zhu Rongzhen, using the team's third defender to replace a substitute center, Zhu Rongzhen's arrival did provide some help to the inner line, however, with the departure of Gao Shiyan, the team's guard line appeared a shortage of personnel rotation.
In the first two seasons of sitting on the cold bench, Yan Zhiqi got the opportunity, perhaps due to talent, in the two seasons when Gao Shiyan left, Yan Zhiqi did not get less opportunities, but the performance was difficult to say, the team still had to rely on Zhao Jiwei and Guo Allen to play, Yan Zhiqi was used more like an outside defender. This is also why after Guo Allen was injured, Liaoning's record became very poor, because only Zhao Jiwei could be used on the defensive line. If this situation continues, after the loan contracts of Liaoning and Shandong expire next season, I am afraid that Liaoning will really have to welcome back Gao Shiyan to strengthen the defender line!
Do you think Gao Shiyan will return to Liaoning next season?
