The CBA playoffs officially kicked off tonight! The Beijing Beikong men's basketball team suffered a major blow at a critical moment in the season.
The core small foreign player Riller was forced to reimburse for the season due to a somewhat insidious fracture of his wrist, which was a huge test for North Control. Not only is Liller the team's scorer, but his presence on the court has a big impact on the team's offensive and defensive rhythm and tactical layout. Such a sudden change made the road to the playoffs confusing for North Control.
Main challenge: The instability of foreign aid affects the tactical layout
The tactics of the men's basketball team rely heavily on the performance of foreign players. Riller's injury means the team will lose a consistent output of 15.6 points per game, which is no small blow for any championship contender. What's more serious is that there are rumors and explosions on social media that Sampson will return to the United States to deal with family affairs tonight after playing, which will bring more trouble to Beijing Control, and Sampson is sure to play well tonight. After that, the game between Beijing Enterprises and the Shenzhen men's basketball team had to become a single foreign aid battle, which was simply worse for Beijing Enterprises. These two pieces of bad news basically announced that the team's strength was plummeting.
In the playoffs, teams not only have to adjust their tactical arrangements, but also have to mentally contend with a huge amount of pressure and uncertainty. Now, all the burden seems to be on the shoulders of another foreign player, Felder, who is still in extremely shaky form......
Felder started all 13 games in the third period, during which he could only rank fifth on the team in points per game, 7.2 points behind Liller and 8.3 points behind Liao Sanning.
If Beijing Control still has hope for this series, in addition to the domestic players playing, they can only count on Field to find their form.
Media and public reactions
The reactions of the media and the public to this series of changes in BEWG are complex and diverse. Media personality "Zhou He" made pessimistic predictions about the future, while "Fanning Yang" jokingly called Felder a "bomb man". Fans and pundits alike have expressed deep concerns about whether North Control will be able to make it through the first round of the playoffs under such unfavorable circumstances. Social media is rife with tests of head coach Min Lulei's tactical wisdom and questions about the team's overall ability to withstand pressure.
Strategy and outlook
In the face of a succession of unfavorable news, Min Lulei must make quick and effective tactical adjustments. First, teams may need to rethink their strategy of using homegrown players, especially looking for new solutions on both the scoring and defensive ends. Second, for Felder, now is the time to prove that he can take on the task. BEWG needs him not only to show his personal scoring ability this time, but also to play a role in stabilizing the morale of the army and commanding and dispatching on the field.
In the new season, they have met twice, and Beijing Enterprises lost by 11 and 20 points respectively against Shenzhen. Coming to the playoff-level stage, can BEWG greatly improve its concentration and defensive quality?
In the end, the playoff performance of North Control will be a comprehensive test of the team's adaptability. If it can find a new growth point in the face of adversity, BEWG may return to the arena with a more mature and resilient attitude. How far the playoffs can go depends on the player's performance, although there are consecutive roster deficits. Although fans are uneasy about the current situation, they still have hope that North Control can create a miracle and go on in the playoffs.
The Beijing Enterprises men's basketball team will challenge the Shenzhen men's basketball team away tonight, and fans can pay attention to tonight's focus battle!
