On April 22, Beijing time, the WCBA Women's Basketball Finals G5 will officially start, and Inner Mongolia will return to its home court to face Sichuan. The first four games between the two sides ended in a 2-2 draw, and the G5 battle will be decided. Can Inner Mongolia, which has returned to fight at home, successfully defend its home court and regain the championship? Or will the Sichuan team go all out and win the old rival away from home and achieve two consecutive championships? It can be said that the battle between Sichuan and Mongolia is the most classic game of the women's basketball team this year. However, it is a pity that CCTV still ignored the women's basketball finals in the end, and it was still not broadcast.
The Sichuan team and the Inner Mongolia team are old rivals. Over the past three seasons, the two teams have met in the Finals for the third year in a row. In the first two meetings, each side won once against their opponents and won the championship once. And this time, the two teams met again in the finals. In the first game of the series between the two sides, the Sichuan team took the lead and defeated Inner Mongolia away from home to get off to a good start. Then the Inner Mongolia Jedi counterattacked, and when they were once behind, they successfully reversed the Sichuan team and got a game back.
Moreover, because in the G2 game, the Sichuan team's foreign aid Cambech elbowed the opponent twice in a row when she was opposite Zhang Ru, which also caused her to be suspended for one game in the G3 game. Without Cambage at home, the Sichuan team relied on the stable performance of Han Xu, Li Meng and Wang Siyu in the G3 game, and once established a 15-point lead. However, at the critical moment, Inner Mongolia foreign aid Jones broke out and scored 47 points crazily, helping Inner Mongolia to overturn the opponent away and successfully win the match point.
In the last game, the Sichuan team finally returned to normal, Wang Siyu scored 19 points, Cambage also cut a double-double, the Sichuan team established a 21-point lead at the beginning, and the Sichuan team finally successfully pulled back a game at home. The G5 battle between the two sides will enter a life-and-death decisive battle, and the battle will be decided. For Inner Mongolia and Sichuan, the importance of this battle is self-evident. The team that wins the G5 game will become the champion team of the season, and a loss means that a season's hard work is in vain.
Obviously, such a women's basketball pinnacle showdown will definitely attract the onlookers and attention of countless fans. However, it is quite regrettable that it can be seen from the current CCTV broadcast preview that CCTV has no intention of broadcasting the G5 game of the women's basketball finals. According to their broadcast preview, CCTV will broadcast other events at the same time as the G5 match of the finals between Sichuan and Inner Mongolia. Among them, CCTV5 will record and broadcast table tennis events. CCTV5+, on the other hand, broadcasts swimming competitions.
As we all know, in the past two years, with the rise of the women's basketball team, the attention of the Chinese women's basketball team has been very high. In the women's basketball fan base, there are also many elderly aunts and uncles, and most of the time they follow the women's basketball game is still from TV broadcasts. And now, CCTV has chosen to abandon the life-and-death battle of the women's basketball finals, which is indeed a bit disappointing.
