98-75, the first game of the CBA Finals finally ended with Liaoning's 23-point victory. And anyone who has watched the game knows that Liaoning won easily, and it was only a matter of time before it won the championship. A 4-0 sweep is basically out of suspense, and Liaoning is also expected to create the fifth 4-0 in the history of the league finals.
In this finals, because Hu Jinqiu and Zhao Yanhao have been reimbursed in advance of the season, it has become obvious that Guangsha is powerless to resist the Liaoning basket, and it is very normal to be optimistic about the Liaoning basket to win the championship, and at the same time, the sweep is also normal.
However, at the beginning of the first game, Guangsha played well, once leading, even if it was backward after that, it was also a tight score. Although Sun Minghui was focused on defense, the play of Zhu Junlong and Zhao Jiaren made Guangsha only 46-49 behind in the half, which made people feel that Guangsha was not likely to win the game.
However, in the third quarter, a wave of 24-11 in the Liaoning basket single quarter, let Guangsha completely lose his temper, and the game was less than halfway through the fourth quarter, which had become garbage time, and Guo Allen even began to do stretch recovery on the sidelines after being replaced, because the game had no suspense.
Liaoning basket won the opening red, in the 7-4 win system to occupy the initiative, in history, the team that won the first game, the probability of winning the championship is as high as 77%. And today's strength gap is no longer a matter of winning the championship, but a problem of sweeping, which is also no suspense.
