In the second round of the CBA semifinals, Liaoning Bengang won another game 96-83, and in a five-game best-of-three game, Liaoning led 2-0. According to statistics, of all the playoff experiences, Liaoning basket has not lost a game in the series where it leads 2-0. As far as the current situation is concerned, Liao Basket has actually stepped into the final arena. The final is just around the corner.
This game Liao basket can win again, from the player's functionality, Guo Allen, who got the highest score of 24 points in the whole game, is definitely the first achievement, but it should not be ignored that Zhang Zhenlin, who played the most time of the whole team for 42 minutes, if purely from the final field data, Zhang Zhenlin seems to be a little shabby, 4 points and 4 rebounds are indeed a little less. But fans who have watched the game should be able to understand that the reason why he played 42 minutes is because of his current indispensability to the Liaoning basket, it is his contribution to the defensive end this season, so that Guangdong Hongyuan's two major playoff weapons Zhou Peng and Weems are completely dumbfounded, if you play a not appropriate metaphor, that is, he single-handedly redeemed the opponent's two big pieces, the first game under his defense, Zhou Peng and Weems only got 23 points in total, especially Weems, the playoff killer, 5 of 13 under Zhang Zhenlin's defense. The hit rate is less than 40%. In this game, Weems was only 3 of 10, and the shooting rate dropped again. Strangling Weems is the same as strangling guangdong Hongyuan catalyst source. The whole team will play very hard. The key to Liao's victory is actually in zhang Zhenlin's defensive end.
As far as these two semi-finals are concerned, Zhang Zhenlin is undoubtedly one of the biggest gains of Liao Basket this season, and another gain should be Fu Hao, in this game Fu Hao thirteen shots seven, the shooting rate is 54%, of which three points five shots three, shooting 60%, got 19 points to become the second scoring point on the court, fu Hao scored a total of 36 points in two games, averaging 18 points per game, in Han Dejun's aging today, he is already the first big killer in the interior.
For Liaoning Basket, the arrival of Zhang Zhenlin and Fu Hao fundamentally solved the shortcomings of the team's third and fourth fronts, and the arrival of both had accidental factors, Zhang Zhenlin ended his study abroad career early because of the epidemic, and Fu Hao was forced to vote because of the dissolution of the Bayi team. If Liao Basket finally wins the championship this season, these two people will undoubtedly be pie in the sky, and they are also the two pies that are the most hungry, and Liao Basket's luck really came. Although both pies are burned by Liao Basket himself. However, getting two three- and four-digit cores in advance is a bonus no matter how you look at it.
Another surprise of the Liaoning basket in this game is undoubtedly the foreign aid Morland, a season has not shown the mountain dew Morand once let the Liaoning basket disappointed, moved the idea of changing foreign aid, but in the end this time the change of foreign aid is more like knocking the mountain shock tiger, Moland state began to have a significant recovery in the third stage, and to the playoffs Morland's state began to play steadily, to this game Morland finally realized the original intention of Liao basket to introduce him, this game he played for 27 minutes, got 14 points and 18 rebounds, turned the river upside down on the inside line, Especially in the crucial fourth quarter, he almost single-handedly took over the game and had the upper hand in the confrontation with Yi Jianlian.
Moland's performance will undoubtedly make Guangdong Hongyuan fans miss last season's playoff big foreign aid Thompson, although Thompson only joined the line of fire with the help of the Shanghai Sharks last season, but in the finals he played a role that is undoubtedly very similar to Moland, it is his advantage in the inner line, so that Han Dejun played very hard, but also let Liao Basket chase points again and again and again and failed, to be honest, Guangdong Hongyuan last season was able to finally survive the counterattack to win the championship, and finally achieve three consecutive championships. Thompson's joining is really a charcoal in the snow, but Guangdong Hongyuan does not seem to cherish this good charcoal, but has self-denied his choice, and the new season did not choose to sign Thompson for the first time, but chose to believe that the comeback boss Yi Jianlian can turn the tide. Looking at this choice now, it is undoubtedly the wrong person to bet on. Belonging to good charcoal for firewood, made a wrong deal. Yi Jianlian's old state, like Han Dejun's, is irreversible.
Guangdong Hongyuan this season this situation, seemingly due to injuries and other factors caused, in fact, more or less preparation for the season, especially in the choice of foreign aid, obviously lack of pertinence, with such an aging inner line to take the road to defend the title, but do not choose to reinforce, do not know whether it is really arrogant or financial difficulties. In contrast, Liao basket and Guangsha, their foreign aid choice is very targeted, and the target is Guangdong Hongyuan, all of which are preparing for the final final. That is to say, even if they are lucky enough to pass the level of Liaoning Basket, they still have to face the level of Guangsha, which is basically a team that kills themselves twice in the season. As the defending champion, he is so targeted but unresponsive, and failure is inevitable.
