Xinjiang men's basketball team is the favorite to win the championship, and a good hand of cards is played at a high level
In this season's professional league, the Xinjiang men's basketball team has always been the favorite team to win the championship. With a strong lineup, strong foreign aid, and the careful deployment of head coach Sun Kai, the Xinjiang team showed its dominance in the regular season. They finished 30-8 in the league and topped the standings and secured a playoff spot.
The main lineup of the Xinjiang team can be described as a group of heroes. Their interior line is played by Zhang Zongduo and Zhou Peng, who are solid and powerful in defense and have quite rich offensive means. On the outside, the Xinjiang team has All-Star level shooters Zhang Tie and Zhang Dapeng, both of whom are among the best in the league in terms of shooting percentage, putting huge pressure on the opponent's defense. And the biggest attraction is the foreign aid of the Xinjiang team, Downs, an inside warrior from the United States, who can average 25+ terrifying data per game, and is the sharpest offensive weapon of the Xinjiang team.
In addition to the strong lineup, the head coach of the Xinjiang team, Sun Kai, is also an important contributor to their championship. Sun Kai is a veteran coach, and he skillfully arranged the rotation lineup of the Xinjiang team to keep every player in the best condition. At critical moments, Sun Kai can always adapt and make timely adjustments to win games for the team. Xinjiang's outstanding record in the regular season is largely due to Sun Kai's excellent coaching skills.
With an excellent performance in the regular season, the Xinjiang team faced an opponent in the playoffs was the Guangzhou team. The team from the south is of medium quality, but with a tenacious fighting spirit, they also had a good result in the regular season. In the duel with the Xinjiang team, the Guangzhou team still seemed to be weak.
At the beginning of the game, the two sides launched a fierce offensive and defensive confrontation. With tacit cooperation and high-intensity defense, the Guangzhou team once equalized the score. But soon, the offensive firepower of the Xinjiang team was completely ignited. Downs played like a tank inside, and Zhang Tie and Zhang Dapeng's long-range shots also continued to hit, and the Xinjiang team had stretched the difference to double digits in the first half.
Entering the second half, the advantage of the Xinjiang team was more obvious. Their offensive storm was raging, and the defense didn't give Guangzhou too many chances. The Xinjiang team defeated the opponent with a score of 93-71 and won by 22 points. Such a big score not only reflects the strength of the Xinjiang team, but also confirms that the "good cards" in their hands this season have indeed played their due level.
Although the score is behind, the fighting spirit of the Guangzhou team is still worthy of recognition. In the predicament of falling behind by 20 points, they did not give up, but continued to go all out and put great defensive pressure on the Xinjiang team. After the game, senior commentator Qiu Biao spoke highly of the performance of the Guangzhou team, saying: "Although they lost, the fighting spirit of the Guangzhou team is worthy of appreciation, they did their best on the field and caused a lot of trouble for the opponent. ＂
With this victory, the Xinjiang team will compete with the winner of the Shanghai or Zhejiang team for the championship in the finals. Judging from the current situation, the Xinjiang team is undoubtedly the biggest favorite to win the championship. They have a strong squad, a good manager, and they have shown great quality against opponents in the playoffs. Although the Shanghai and Zhejiang teams are also strong teams, they seem to be slightly inferior in front of the Xinjiang team.
The outcome of the finals is yet to be seen. In the top matchups at this level, any small factor can affect the final outcome. Although the Xinjiang team is the favorite, they cannot be taken lightly. Only by staying focused and performing at their best will they be able to win the trophy.
The Xinjiang men's basketball team has indeed shown the strength of the favorites to win the championship this season. They have a strong squad, they coach well, and they played at the level they deserved in the playoffs. Although it remains to be seen whether it can win the championship in the end, the "good card" in the hands of the Xinjiang team has played its due weight. We also want to give due recognition and appreciation to the tenacious fighting spirit shown by the Guangzhou team in the game. This never-say-die spirit is the essence of sports competitions.
