At most, they were behind by double digits, and they were still 2 points behind 3 seconds before the end, but Inner Mongolia dragged the game into overtime, and finally defeated the Sichuan team 95-89, and pulled back a game away, rewriting the overall score to a 2-1 lead. The reason why Inner Mongolia can be so tough is not unrelated to the performance of super foreign aid Jones, she shot 13 of 20 in the whole game, scored 47 points and 10 boards, and completely broke the Sichuan team at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.
In the last game, Inner Mongolia defeated the Sichuan team with difficulty at home, however, there was a little episode in the game, when the Sichuan team's foreign aid Cambage was scrambling, he hit Zhang Ru fiercely and elbowed the opponent twice in a row, and then the league also issued a fine for Cambage's behavior, and the Sichuan team giant will be suspended for one game. Cambech missed the G3 battle, which undoubtedly gave Inner Mongolia a chance to turn defeat into victory. And in this game, Jones's performance will directly determine the trend of the game.
In the past two games, Jones's performance has been very consistent, with 29 points and 12 boards on 12-of-19 shooting in the first game, and in the G2 game, she scored 28 points and 10 boards on 10-of-18 shooting. And in this game, without Cambage's restrictions, Jones is obviously more like a fish in water, the offensive end is completely opened, and he continues to attack successfully on the inside, giving the Sichuan team a very big damage on the inside.
In the whole game, Jones played 43 minutes, hardly rested, 13 of 20 shots, cut 47 points and 10 boards, in terms of the number of shots, Jones and the first two games of the number of shots are about the same. However, her single-game scoring soared to 47 points, 20 more than in the past two games. Obviously, without Cambage, Jones became unscrupulous in attacking the basket, and she hit 19 of the 25 free throws she made throughout the game. You know, in the last 2 games, Jones has only made 15 free throws combined.
Let's take a look at Han Xu, who is opposite her, I have to say that Han Xu has tried his best in this game. She played 43 minutes and finished with 23 points and 16 rebounds on 10-of-20 shooting, including seven valuable frontcourt rebounds. It can be said that Han Xu's performance in this battle is decent and not bad. It's just that the opponent she met this time was a Thanos-level guy, and in the face of Jones, a super giant, Han Xu might not be able to do anything.
As we all know, at the beginning of the WCBA league season, after the Sichuan team lost to Inner Mongolia, in view of Jones's terrifying strength, they had to bring in Cambage and give the latter a contract of 7 million for 3 months. And now it seems that the Sichuan team is indeed prescient, and it seems that if they want to limit Jones, I am afraid they still have to be Cambage, and Han Xu still can't limit the opponent for the time being.
