In the key card battle, Tongxi lost at home to Guangzhou Dragons and Lions, which made their road to the playoffs extremely difficult, and after the game, Xi Relijiang was extremely frustrated, facing the camera for a long time without saying anything, feeling like cursing.
Trailing by 21 points in the third quarter but only one point away in the fourth quarter, Peterson missed two mistakes and a long-range three-point miss, so the team lost the opportunity to turn defeat into victory, so he blamed himself and bent down on the spot and frantically smashed his head.
Choi Yongxi's crucial three points and rebounds were the guarantee that Guangzhou could beat their opponents, and of course, Chen Yingjun, who carried the team on his shoulders in the final quarter, also contributed to it.
In previous seasons, I always felt that Guangzhou Dragon Lions did not lack hard work, but the talent was too poor, but compared with Tongxi, the physical aspect was undoubtedly the one with the upper hand.
From the outside line to the inner line, Xi Re was very emotional, and he had a stomach that he wanted to say, but he was hindered by public occasions and stopped talking.
At 19:35 Beijing time on March 20, Nanjing Tongxi Zhuguang lost to Guangzhou Longlion 95-101 in the 37th round of the CBA. Four-quarter scores: 23-27, 20-27, 25-22, 27-25.
Presence
The two teams alternately led in the opening game, and the Tongxi team made more mistakes in the middle of the game, trailing 8-15, and then quickly counterattacked to bring the score slightly closer, but after Choi Yonghee hit the outside at the end of the quarter, the difference was stretched to 10 points, 17-27.
When Xi Ge paused, his eyes widened and he was very dissatisfied with the team's performance on the field.
After returning from a timeout, the defensive restrictions were tightened, and Tongxi played a wave of 6-0, 23-27, and the first quarter ended.
What is it like to play against a center as strong as a wrestler? I am afraid that only Liu Dong and Sun Mingyang have a deep experience.
Block and dismantle the easy cake, 7 points in a single quarter, 2 of 3, when Li Yanzhe also has such a strong presence on the field!
Choi Yonghee recovered and scored 6 points on 2-of-3 shooting.
The inner line collapsed
The opening of the second quarter continued the good momentum of the late first quarter, with Lin Wei and Pitt firing in unison to bring the score closer. When entering the middle of the game, he missed a series of shots, and the Guangzhou team played simply, using Li Yanzhe's block and breaking the basket to score.
At 32-43, the score was once again stretched to double digits.
In this season, with the gradual maturity of Li Yanzhe and the addition of talented players such as Cui Yongxi and Jiao Boqiao, Zhu Mingzhen, who has matured, Guo Shiqiang can finally be broad, at least the first is not weaker than other teams.
And Tongxi's current interior line is extremely weak, and he often uses the play style of three defenders, which makes the forward line miserable.
After the deficit stretched to 11 points, Peterson hit a long-range 3-pointer and then scored two steals. Tongxi played a wave of 7-0, 43-47 to bring the score closer again.
Coach Guo Shiqiang's nose was crooked, and the hair dryer mode was turned on when he paused, and such a mistake could not be tolerated. After returning from a timeout, Guangzhou picked up the offensive again, and the 43-54 halftime ended.
It seems that the two teams with similar levels of strength are actually quite obvious.
Rebounding 17-33, Tongxi lost 16; Li Yanzhe scored 13 points in the half, and with the advantage of power and the improvement of finishing ability, he also became a bug that Tongxi could not solve, and Tongxi's internal line collapsed.
Desperate to fight back
At the beginning of the third quarter, Chen Yingjun taught Wang Lan a lesson, and his strong confrontation caused him to lose the ball for the second time and received a physical foul, which was previously carried by Bell. Guangzhou once again played a wave to open the score.
The higher the fight, Li Yanzhe catches the basket and kills the flying Achul hit, and this wrestling one is now more and more flexible.
In the middle of the third quarter, Mason hit a three-point shot with the cover of the center, 50-71, the difference had reached 21 points, and Tongxi was facing a desperate situation of collapse.
Such a huge point difference humiliated him, and the whole team was awakened by Xi Ge and began to fight back with all their might.
Liu Dong and Achul worked inside to strengthen the competition for rebounds, which allowed Tongxi to get more offensive opportunities, while pushing the game fast, focusing on the Guangzhou team's unstable footing, a wave of 10-0 to chase the score.
Choi Yong-hee stepped up and helped the team stop the bleeding with a converted three-pointer.
The third quarter ended, 70-78
Falling short
In the first two minutes of the fourth quarter, Tongxi continued to strengthen the speed of rebounding competition and conversion offense, a wave of 9-2, 77-78, chasing Guangzhou team hair, Chen Yingjun began to take the initiative to take responsibility, constantly using blocking to score, continue to maintain a slight advantage.
In 5:05, Lin Wei hit his first three-point shot from the outside, after 0 of 6 and 84-86. A flash of thought in his heart, could it be Lin Wei's moment again?
Sure enough, Wu Tingjia followed and hit a three-pointer, 87-88 chased only one point, Peterson missed a three-point from a distance, and Tongxi's catch-up drew a rest.
Then came Peterson's second mistake, one was to enter the inside line and mismatch Liu Dong, and the other was to be picked up by Chen Yingjun. Xige made a substitution adjustment, and Peterson on the field looked extremely annoyed, pounding his head hard, venting his grief and indignation.
Choi Yongxi was like a cold-faced killer, steadily pressing the whistle for three points, and the difference was extended to 8 points, 87 to 95, and the situation was not good.
In less than two minutes, the gap of eight points is that the most important thing is that it cannot prevent Chen Yingjun's strong killing. At the last moment, Xiao Cui picked up a rebound on top of Wang Lanrong's head and scored a basket, 89-99, and Tongxi's momentum was gone.
The score was fixed at 95-101, and Tongxi's loss may have made the young team dream of the playoffs.
In the crucial fourth quarter, Chen Yingjun scored 10 points and Cui Yongxi 9 points, and the two combined to block Tongxi's crazy counterattack.
Choi Yongxi cut 25 points + 12 boards, both statistics were the best in the game, and he won 6 frontcourt boards to show his talent; At the same time, the main defense Lin Wei, making it difficult for opponents to find good shooting space, only scored 11 points, 1 of 8 three-pointers, especially the two key three-pointers in the second half, like a cold-blooded killer-like flat expression, seems to be saying goodbye to Qingshu.
