The 2021-2022 CBA Finals is in full swing, and this newspaper specially invites Basketball Celebrity, former head coach of the Liaoqing Men's Basketball Team, Liu Yuanjing and Liu Xinran, the former player of the Liaoning Basketball Team, to chat about the Finals together. In the first leg, the Liaoning basketball team won a big victory, and both experts believed that the current strong lineup of the Liaoning men's basketball team was the main reason for the victory. Veteran coach Liu Yuanjing said bluntly: "Today's Liaoning basket soldiers are strong and strong, and they can even form two sets of lineups with equal strength and different characteristics to fight." This 'double rotation' shows the hard power of the Liaoning basket. ”
The first leg was won in a strong lineup with plenty of energy
Reporter: In the first leg of the big win, the Liaoning men's basketball team registered 12 people to play all of them, 11 people scored, and the main force and substitutes all played very well. In contrast, the Zhejiang Guangsha team, which lacked two absolute main players, played a good half-time ball, and in the second half, it was obviously physically weak and unable to cope. Ask the two experts to interpret the current lineup advantage of Liaoning Basketball.
Liu Yuanjing: Although the Guangsha team is missing Hu Jinqiu and Zhao Yanhao, they can advance to the finals, and the team is still quite strong. They played very well in the first half, but in the second half, after the Liaoning basket was adjusted, the strong advantage of the lineup was revealed. At present, among the Liaoning basketball players, except for Han Dejun, whose personal ability has declined compared to last season due to his age, the other players are more mature. This season, Liaoning basket has often been able to alternate between two sets of lineups, which is unprecedented. Guo Allen, Han Dejun, Li Xiaoxu, Zhang Zhenlin, Ferge started, Zhao Jiwei, Fu Hao, Moland, Cong Mingchen, Zhou Juncheng substitutes, the two sets of lineups can also blend with each other, as needed for various combinations. In the previous seasons, the inner line of the Liaoning basket relied on Han Dejun and the outside line relied on Guo Allen, and this season this season this situation has been fundamentally changed.
Liu Xinran: The Guangsha team played very well in the first leg, but the main rotation of six or seven people in the whole game was limited, and the space for tactical adjustment was limited. The lineup of Liao Basket is too strong, especially in the second half, the main players of the Guangsha team obviously can't run on the field. The main advantage of the Liaoning basket is reflected in the two outside players and two inside players, the outside line is Guo Allen and Zhao Jiwei, Guo Allen through his own strong surprise shots, with this efficient attack method, quickly opened the position attack; Zhao Jiwei contributed seven assists through the whole field through active organization, and revitalized the entire offensive system of the Liaoning team. The inside line is Morland and Fu Hao, Moland is very active at both ends of the attack and defense, the defense gives the Guangsha team considerable pressure, and the rebounding is also firmly controlled. Fu Hao can score inside and outside the line, rushing to rebound very aggressively, scoring 16 points in 25 minutes, very efficient.
Moland deserves to be learned by all Chinese players
Reporter: Both experts mentioned the big foreign aid Morland, who suddenly broke out from the playoffs, bringing a big surprise to the Liaoning men's basketball team. In particular, he is very dedicated on the field, positive and brave. How do the two experts see Moland's performance?
Liu Yuanjing: Moland really made everyone shine in the playoffs! During the regular season, I was a little disappointed by his performance, but in the playoffs, Molander was like a different person, fighting actively, everyone saw him fall to the ground to grab the rebound and assist Zhao Jiwei's three-point shot, and his fighting spirit is very worth learning from Chinese players. Now Morland, there is a lot of improvement on the offensive end, and the free throw has improved a lot, and the shooting rate is much higher than in the regular season. Defensively, his role is greater, covering, assisting in defense, all very good. Although he is less than 2 meters 10 tall, he is very active when fighting for rebounds and judges accurately. In the semi-finals, Liao basket swept through guangdong team, and the biggest advantage was that at the point of Moland, it made up for the gap in Han Dejun's declining competitive state.
Liu Xinran: In my opinion, Moland's biggest role is in the defensive end and rebounding. In the third quarter, Moland continued his excellent form in the semi-finals, and the defensive area on the inside line was very large, which made it very difficult for Guangsha's attack. Under the oppressive defense led by Moland, Guangsha's main players Sun Minghui and Okafu fell off a cliff in the second half. Okafor scored 11 points in the first quarter and only scored three in the second half. Morland had 11 points, 13 rebounds, five assists and two blocks in the game, and was very well-rounded.
Accelerate, speed up! We must fight a war of attrition with the Guangsha team
Reporter: In the second leg of the finals, what kind of preparation should the Liaoning men's basketball team make, and what kind of tactics should be formulated to deal with the counterattack of the Guangsha team?
Liu Xinran: First of all, psychologically, you can't lightly attack the enemy because of the first win, like the first leg of the game, the Liaoning basket started badly, and the preparation for facing difficulties was insufficient. Liaoning basketball must emancipate the mind, devote itself wholeheartedly, starting from defense and rebounding. The key to the victory of the Liaoning basket is to make full use of the advantages of a large number of soldiers and a wide range of soldiers, and fully rotate on the field to ensure the quality of high-intensity attack and defense. If you want to seize the weakness of the Guangsha team and play a war of attrition with the opponent, the key is to raise the rhythm of the game and not give the main force of the Guangsha team a chance to breathe. In fact, in the first game, the Guangsha team very much hoped to play more position battles and save physical energy as much as possible. Therefore, in the next game, Liaoning Basketball must accelerate and speed up, that is, to chase the Guangsha team to play the whole field and drag down the opponent's physical fitness as soon as possible. Of course, the speed of the game is not blindly attacking and defending, but it is still necessary to have patience and gradually consume the opponent.
Liu Yuanjing: It is still necessary to attach great importance to the opponent and control the main attack points of the Guangsha team as much as possible. The upper court controlled Sun Minghui well, but it was recommended not to go to the bag to clip him, the effect of the bag clip was not very good. Other players should pay attention to sun minghui's auxiliary defense and supplementary defense. Another point is to pay attention to a few young substitute players of the Guangsha team, they shot accurately in the last game, but the speed is not fast, as long as the targeted tactics, the defense will not be too difficult. In short, Liaoning Basket must make a good start, absolutely can not be careless, take down one by one, to ensure that the championship is won.
