In the battle of Tianwang Mountain, the Shanghai men's basketball team actually pulled from the beginning!
Wang Zhelin is too weak, he shot 2 of 9, only got 7 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal, with a plus/minus of -31, the first from the bottom of the team. With such a Wang Zhelin, it is obviously unrealistic to want to win.
The Zhejiang team, which returned to the home court, boldly changed the formation, Wang Shilong arranged the best sixth man Wu Qian to start, and the Shanghai team was caught off guard, and the opening wave was 9-0, which was really unexpected. The Shanghai team's offense was dumb, with 0 shots in the first 8, and it only barely scored 6 points by making free throws. Even so, the Zhejiang team still chased and played, stretching the lead to double digits. Fortunately, the Shanghai team caught up with the score with free throws, and after the first quarter, the Zhejiang men's basketball team led by 4 points 27-23. In the first quarter, the Shanghai team got as many as 16 free throw opportunities, while the Zhejiang team only had 5, which shows that the Zhejiang team worked really hard for this game.
The Shanghai team finally did not slow down in the second quarter, but came up and played aggressively on the offensive end, Bacon felt hot, and scored 7 points in a row to help the Shanghai team chase down to only 2 points. Cheng Shuaipeng got 4 fouls early, which seemed to have laid a hidden danger for the Zhejiang team. Zhejiang used a wave of 8-0 to extend the lead to double digits again. Fortunately, the Shanghai team did not fall behind and once again chased the score difference to single digits. At halftime, Zhejiang led by 8 points at 55-47.
Wang Zhelin didn't play well, he only got 45 rebounds on 1 of 5 shots in the half, in such a state, if you want to beat the Zhejiang team, you can imagine how difficult it is. In fact, Wu Qianqian didn't feel good, only 2 of 11 shots in the half, and got 5 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.
Shanghai once went on a 4-0 run at the start of the third quarter and trailed by only four points. But Liu Zheng was injured and left the field, which made the Shanghai team worse, Wang Zhelin was trapped in fouls, and some defensive actions did not dare to do, and the Zhejiang team seized the opportunity and once again stretched the difference to double digits.
The rhythm of the Shanghai team is gone, Wang Zhelin's desire to attack is gone, and even the two major foreign aids, Bacon and Xuebu, have no fighting spirit, such a Shanghai team is really disappointing. If you look like this, it is obviously impossible to reach the semi-finals.
The Zhejiang team continued to widen the difference, once leading by nearly 30 points, and the faces of the Shanghai players were full of disappointment. Zhejiang won by seven points in the first quarter and finished the third quarter with a 14-point lead at 80-66. Judging from this point difference, the Shanghai team has absolutely no possibility of reversing.
Sure enough, the game in the fourth quarter turned into garbage time entirely. The Shanghai team didn't even have the courage to give it a go, and Wang Zhelin, who was as hard as iron last time, was as soft as snow this time, and was directly pressed on the bench.
The Zhejiang team became more and more courageous, extending the lead to 30+. In the end, the Zhejiang men's basketball team defeated the Shanghai men's basketball team at home, thus eliminating the opponent with a big score of 3-2 and entering the top four of the playoffs. The Zhejiang team will play against the Xinjiang men's basketball team in the semifinals.
In fact, it is already very good that the Shanghai men's basketball team can play like this, and it can be entangled with the opponent for 5 games. The Zhejiang team was beaten like this by the Shanghai team, and it may not be so easy to easily deal with the Xinjiang team in the semifinals.
It can only be said that at the critical moment, Wang Zhelin was too weak, he played 32 minutes, only 2 of 9 shots, 3 of 4 free throws, only 7 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal, plus or minus -31, which was disappointing.
How could Wang Zhelin, who performed like this, help the Shanghai team win?
I can only say a sigh.
