After the test of the quarterfinals, the CBA's current semi-finals will also be in full swing. As the final opponents of the past two seasons, Liaoning and Guangdong have successfully passed the test 2-0, reached the final four positions, and will play a decisive battle in advance to compete for tickets to this season's finals.
And there is no doubt that the attention of this round of competition is unprecedented. Such attention is a strain on both teams, but it is also an opportunity to prove itself. Combined with the overall progress of the season, there is no doubt that the Liaoning team will look bigger on the winning side. In the regular season, Liaoning was the first in the regular season, while Guangdong was the fifth in the regular season, and this position was not safe enough, and the Shenzhen team, which was in sixth place at the time, was not worse than Guangdong to win a few games. Moreover, in this season, the Liaoning team is well-organized, the return of Li Xiaoxu, and the growth of Zhang Zhenlin have all made the Liaoning team have a better rotation ability. So on the surface, Liaoning is in an advantageous game, and there are data that have proved that in the previous two 5-innings and 3-win matches, Liaoning team was a series of big scores to defeat Guangdong and successfully advanced. Obviously, these all point to the advantages of the Liaoning team, so that Liaoning fans see the hope of breaking through Guangdong in this round of competition.
Therefore, for Guangdong, the first thing Du Feng should do in this round of competition may be to defeat Liaoning first and seize today's opening game. Use a victory to lay a foundation of confidence and inject energy into the young players, so that in the series, Du Feng may have more people to use, and will be assured that the change of moves will take the initiative. In fact, after the opening of the Guangdong playoffs that have been held for a whole season, the recovery has begun. And it's in this crucial showdown game. Du Feng also directly chose to showdown again.
Not long ago, Du Feng gave a pre-match interview. Speaking of this game, Du Fengxian was a very domineering showdown with the team for a semi-final. Du Feng said that the team's previous absence due to injury Ren Junfei Laiduo, these two people are now in good shape, today's game to try to arrange them to appear. The importance of these two players to the Guangdong team is self-evident, and Ren Junfei's return allows front-line Zhou Peng to get a large release of playing time and help him maintain his physical fitness. And can also help the team through personal internal tandem, and Ledo's return naturally allows Weems to get a break at the same time, and the energy can be saved to the end. Then it can be said that the first few games gave them rest, Du Feng has been hiding his strength, just for this round of series, for a top opponent like Liaoning.
In the face of this game, Du Feng not only brought the return news of the two forward cores, but also put forward a requirement for the team, that is, the whole team must be prepared for the collective defense of Guo Allen, because his ability is too prominent. In the past two years, although Guangdong has been suppressing Liaoning in the playoffs, it is undeniable that Guangdong has suffered a lot of losses in Guo Allen, and especially in the previous National Games, Guo Allen single-handedly broke the back line of the Guangdong National Games and helped Liaoning win the championship. Therefore, defending Guo Allen is a bottom-line task, and the team must complete it, otherwise Guangdong's goal of winning the opening game is very difficult. However, I don't know if the Guangdong team can still take care of Zhao Jiwei and strangle Zhao Jiwei like in previous seasons. Otherwise, the effect may not be very good, after all, the Liaoning team will definitely make a B plan preparation for Guo Allen's constraints.
