The loss of this game made the Guangdong fans and the media feel very disappointed and dissatisfied. Guangdong have been seen as favourites to win the title this season, with a luxurious squad and strong players. However, in this game, they lost to Liaoning and lost the victory at a critical moment.
Media people questioned Du Feng's decision, believing that he was wrong in choosing to use the strategy of joint defense in the last quarter. Although the joint defense can effectively suppress the opponent's offense, in this game, Zhao Jiwei and Zhang Zhenlin of the Liaoning team broke the joint defense of the Guangdong team and hit key three-pointers in a row. Du Feng's timeout did not appear to be timely enough, allowing the Guangdong team to lose control of the game situation.
In addition, Du Feng also mentioned the overall youth of the team and the fluctuating mentality. This is also one of the reasons for the defeat of the Guangdong team. While the Guangdong team has strong players, young players can face pressure and volatility at key moments. They need more game experience and mental quality to face the situation.
Outside pressure and expectations also had an impact on the Guangdong team. As a favourite, Guangdong has attracted much attention in every game, and fans and media have high expectations for them. This outside pressure can affect the team's performance, causing them to lose their cool and confidence at crucial moments.
New challenges and opportunities
Although the loss of this game was disappointing for the Guangdong fans, it also made them see some problems and challenges. The Guangdong team needs to make adjustments at the technical and tactical level to improve the team's stability and ability to withstand pressure. Du Feng needs to find better strategies and tactics to face different opponents and game situations.
At the same time, the team's young players also need more training and development. They need to accumulate more game experience and improve their technical and mental qualities. Only by growing in actual combat can they perform at a better level at critical moments.
The defeat was also an opportunity for Guangdong to take a fresh look at themselves, find their shortcomings and improve. They are still a strong team with the quality to win the title. As long as they can learn their lessons and adjust their form, they still have a chance to succeed this season.
The loss of this game caused doubts and dissatisfaction among the fans and media of the Guangdong team. Both Du Feng and the team need to learn from it, find the problem and make improvements. Despite the pressure and expectations from the outside world, Guangdong still have a chance to succeed this season. They need to stick together and work together to win the title.
The severity of the problem at the front
The front line problem of the Guangdong men's basketball team is becoming more and more serious. In this game, the four frontline players combined to contribute a measly nine points, which is a worrying number. In particular, the team's top scorer, Du Runwang, almost did not play at the level he should have in the game, which is undoubtedly a big problem.
Du Runwang was the scoring machine of the Guangdong team, but in this game, he seemed to lose the inspiration and touch of the attack. The opponent's defense also made it difficult for him to find an opportunity to attack. The lack of attacking ability of the forward line has become one of the biggest reasons for the team's loss. Du Feng's tactics needed the support of the scorer, and when Du Runwang was unable to function, the Guangdong team's offense was in trouble.
In addition, the overall performance of the Guangdong team's strikers is also relatively sluggish. They lacked enough threat to create scoring chances in the game. This makes the Guangdong team very vulnerable on the offensive end of the front line. In the game, Guangdong's forward players need to be more active in looking for attacking opportunities and improve scoring efficiency.
The problem of foreign aid is troubled
In addition to the problem of the front, the Guangdong team is also facing the problem of sluggish performance of foreign aid. In this game, the performances of all three foreign players were not satisfactory. Outside players are the team's scoring pillars, but in this game, they didn't play as well as they should.
The performance of foreign players has a direct impact on the overall strength and competitiveness of the team. If the foreign players are unable to dominate the game, it will be difficult for the team to overcome strong opponents. This is one of the dilemmas that the Guangdong team will encounter in this game.
Du Feng needs to re-examine the selection of foreign players, and if the current foreign players cannot meet the needs of the team, he may need to consider replacing them. Outside players are an important tool for teams in the playoffs, and if they can't play a role in crunch time, the team's championship dreams will be threatened.
Challenges and opportunities ahead
Despite the many problems and difficulties it is currently facing, the Guangdong men's basketball team still has a chance to save the situation. The team needs to make adjustments at the technical and tactical level, find better tactical strategies, and improve the efficiency of attack and defense. Du Feng needs to find a way to solve the problem of the front line and make the team's attack more diverse and threatening.
At the same time, young players also need to grow and gain experience in practice. They are the hope for the future of the team and need more game time and opportunities to show what they can do.
Outside pressures and expectations are also a challenge. As a defending champion, the Guangdong team is under a lot of pressure and expectations. The team needs to stay calm, not be distracted by the outside and focus on the game. Only then will they be able to continue chasing their championship dreams.
The Guangdong men's basketball team is currently facing many problems and challenges, but this is also an opportunity for growth. They need to stick together and work together to find a solution to the problem. Despite the odds, with a strong belief and a hard work spirit, they still have a chance to succeed this season. No matter what the outside world thinks, they should believe in their own strength, move forward bravely, and strive for better results. That's the real way to a championship.
