The 31st round of the CBA continues tonight, with Xi Relijiang leading Nanjing Tongxi to challenge the Guangzhou Dragons and Lions away. At the beginning of the game, Cui Yongxi hit a jumper to score two points for Guangzhou. The Tongxi team immediately hit a 3-point shot, and the two sides played a 3-2 start. However, soon the two teams entered a confrontation battle, and at the end of the first quarter, the Tongxi team temporarily led the Guangzhou team by one point at 32:31.
Back in the second quarter, Guangzhou No. 8 player Cui Yongxi cut consecutive points for the team. Soon, the Guangzhou team gradually reversed the score. At this time, Xi Relijiang, who was standing on the sidelines, was so angry that he directly scolded his own players. At halftime, Guangzhou led by four points at 57:53. By this time, Choi Yongxi had already scored 14 points for the team.
Since the beginning of the second half, Guangzhou's attack has not weakened. By forcing the defense, the Tongxi team kept making mistakes, and the Guangzhou team played a wave of small climax. The score was quickly stretched to more than ten points. By the end of the third quarter, Guangzhou had led Tongxi by 14 points.
After the game entered the fourth quarter, the single-aided Tongxi team did not give up. Hitting three points from the outside caused Guangzhou coach Guo Shiqiang to call a timeout. But after the timeout returned, Guangzhou's attack still did not improve much. With minutes left in the game, the Tongxi team chased the score to 92:95 and was only three points away. At the key moment, Zhu Mingzhen hit a 3-point shot for the Guangzhou team to "stop the bleeding". Although Lin Wei also hit a 3-point shot, the Guangzhou team still saved the victory until the end. In the end, 113:100 home to Tongxi 5 consecutive defeats.
Although the Tongxi team lost this game, the positive fighting spirit of the whole team is still encouraged. In particular, domestic player Lin Wei cut 20 points off the bench, which is the second highest score in the team after the small foreign aid. The performance can be said to be outstanding.
As the former NBL scoring king, Sun Rongxiao made his debut. He only scored 3 points and 2 rebounds in 16 minutes, which was very mediocre. You must know that Sun Rongxiao is a big killer in the former NBL Wuhan team. Now such a performance may not have failed the expectations of Tongxi fans and head coach Xi Relijiang.
Looking at the Guangzhou side, the team has as many as 6 people scoring double-doubles. Among them, the starting five tigers all scored doubles. Chen Yingjun scored a team-high 21 points and 6 assists. Choi continued to score 18 points efficiently, including 3-of-3 three-pointers. I have to say that Cui Yongxi is now another domestic player with the most consistent scoring in Guangzhou after Chen Yingjun.
