The strength of the Guangzhou team is not good, no matter how hard and tenacious it is, it can't beat the Xinjiang team with many soldiers, and lost 27 points in the second game of the series, falling behind the opponent with a total score of 0-2, and almost on the verge of elimination.
After the game, Guo Shiqiang was a little unwilling, although he admitted the difference in strength between the two teams at the press conference, saying that the overall strength of the Xinjiang team is stronger than the Guangzhou team, but he also has the mood of not admitting defeat, he criticized the Xinjiang team for moving very big on the field, faking a lot of falls, and in this case we lost in experience. Note that Guo Shiqiang used two "very" to express his dissatisfaction.
No matter what Guo Shiqiang says, it is an indisputable fact that the strength of the Guangzhou team is not good and the players play poorly. Objectively speaking, only Cui Yongxi of the Guangzhou team showed a normal level yesterday, and the others were unqualified. Chen Yingjun was 4-of-12 and Brown was 4-of-14, and many people did not play at a normal level. The Xinjiang team alone scored 40 points with Salamu and Liu Lin, and 12 people scored all of them, while Guangzhou had 12 people on the field and 2 people scored 0 points.
In addition to the gap between domestic players, the gap between the foreign aid of the Guangzhou team is even greater, the performance of their big foreign aid Kemp is really spicy, maybe he has an injury on his hand that affects the performance, the whole game actually shot 0 in 7, mainly relying on free throws to score 3 points, and the free throws are not 100 shots, only 50% of the shooting rate, such foreign aid is too watery. To be honest, if the Guangzhou team is a big foreign aid and does not send Li Yanzhe away, it will have to fight with the Xinjiang team, but there is no if.
Kemp's fighting spirit is commendable with injuries, but this form has dragged down the team. His regular season stats are okay, but the playoff stats are very dismal, playing a total of 4 playoff games, scoring 5 points, 1 point, 4 points, 3 points, and an average of 3.2 points per game. It's really hard to win with such foreign players. Fans criticized angrily: I really haven't seen a foreign aid as rubbish as the foreign aid in Guangzhou, he really doesn't have any technology, he can't eat cakes, and he is ridiculously thin.
Fans are not wrong to scold Kemp. But in fact, Shenzhen's foreign player Hill is more watery than Kemp, playing three playoff games and scoring a total of three points. Both of them were angrily criticized by fans, which can be regarded as the same category.
