Stage III Round 38
151 - 128
Shanghai has a long time
With the Shanghai Jiushi men's basketball team losing to Guangsha in the last round, the team also locked in the third place in the regular season, the previous four to end the regular season competition is a big success, although there is no pressure to enter the playoffs, but the last three games lost a total of 85 points of three consecutive losses, it is really a bit "excessive". In the case of the playoffs is very likely to face the "bitter lord" Shenzhen, I hope that such a "break" can be reflected in the playoffs accordingly, to know that we have not entered the playoffs for three years, and this opponent is still the team that has swept us this season, and can defeat them to enter the next round of the playoffs, at least psychologically, so that we can have the confidence of "sharks" to return to the peak!
Starting lineup
Shanghai Long-term Big Shark
First quarter: Shanxi men's basketball team 37:25 Shanghai Jiushi
In this game, Luo Hanchen, Guo Haowen and Kelan Baike started, but the team's performance after the opening was not satisfactory, the three-point shot and four shots were all lost by the Shanxi team's hot three-point shot, Li Chunjiang had to call a timeout to replace the small lineup, but the opponent's three-point feeling was still the same, and the three-pointer of 9 out of 6 pulled the score to 32-19.
The lost group of shooters made the Sharks offensively weak, only 11 of 11 three-pointers, Yang Xuezeng did not hesitate to let go of the run and bombardment made Shanghai a little tired, the first quarter of the game the whole team's 9 assists and 64% three-point shooting rate gave Shanxi a 37-25 lead to end the first quarter of the game.
Quarter 2: Shanxi Men's Basketball Team 78:51 Shanghai Jiushi
In the second quarter, the Sharks' offense was still a bit struggling, Wang Zhelin finally went off the field after playing 15 minutes, he scored 12 points on 5-of-9 shooting, and Shanxi still maintained a high shooting rate. Fortunately, as Ren Junwei hit the top three points of the arc, the Sharks stopped their opponents 45-36 to narrow the point difference to single digits.
Today's game, the use of nine-man rotation of Li Chunjiang is still the all-Chinese class to fight and did not send into the big list of Feng Lai, in the case of Dong Hanlin to eat a penalty ban, the internal personnel are tight, Wang Zhelin and Ren Junwei also had to stay on the field for a long time, and this is also the only two strong points of the sharks today, while the Shanxi team score is even more explosive, with an overall shooting rate of 45 shots and 30 shots in the half-time 78-51 lead into the dressing room.
Third quarter: Shanxi men's basketball team 110:90 Shanghai LongShi
The pace of the two-sided fight was fast, and Klan Baike, who scored only 4 points in the first half of the three-pointer, started two three-pointers plus a free throw to score 10 points to help the team maintain the point difference. But it is difficult to endure Shanxi foreign aid Simmons's three-point stability, and draft player Zhang Ning scored 6 points under the offensive end basket to bring the point difference closer to 20 points again.
Later in the quarter, Ren Junwei performed well, scoring 10 points in the lows, under the basket and free throws, and the Sharks also defended the opponent from an eight-second violation, but in the last minute, with Simmons hitting a three-point whistle, the Sharks trailed 20 points 90-110 to end the third quarter.
Quarter 4: Shanxi Men's Basketball Team 151:128 Shanghai Jiushi
Rebounding is still a stubborn problem for the Sharks tonight, after losing 28 and 18 rebounds respectively against Guangsha and Liaoning, and losing another 12 rebounds at the end of the third quarter of the game. In the final quarter, the Sharks' defense line was full of holes, Ge Zhaobao passed Toh Simmons to win, and Zhou Zhandong assisted the former to score a strong kill under the basket, and the point difference was always around 16-20 points.
Fortunately, in this quarter, Wang Zhelin's outside line feels excellent, hitting three three-pointers to score 11 points, and the score of this game has also come to 30+, but Xing Zhiqiang and Simmons' outside three-point firepower is still the same, and the point difference has once again reached more than 20 points. In the final moments of the game, Luo Hanchen left the game with a full foul, and Zhou Zhandong was also sent off for two fouls, and finally the Sharks lost to the opponent by 128-151, 23 points.
Although there is no pressure on the playoff quota, ending the regular season with three consecutive defeats is obviously not acceptable to Li Chunjiang, and it is also unacceptable to the fans, but no matter how much hope is that in the next nearly half a month of rest, the Sharks can adjust their state and meet the first opponent of the playoffs with the best posture! Whoever it is, take it down!
