On May 11, Beijing time, the fifth life-and-death battle of Guangdong Hongyuan VS Liaoning Bengang officially opened, confirming the previous rumors, Zhou Qi was absent from the Juwu life-and-death battle due to injury, and the second flying line came back to support Guangdong Hongyuan. It's just that after the first quarter passed, Guangdong Hongyuan seemed to be behind the Liaoning Bengang team with a score of 13 points, and the rebounds added up to 13 losses. In fact, it can also be seen from this that Guangdong Hongyuan's inner line is indeed too bad, and the reaction caused by the lack of Zhou Qi's inner gate is chained. Therefore, at the end of the first half, Guangdong Hongyuan fell behind Liaoning Bengang 43-58.
After all, basketball is a team game, if one link collapses, then it will definitely cause the collapse of other links, in such a high-intensity confrontation in the playoffs, a wise saying "the one who wins the rebound wins the world". Guangdong Hongyuan VS Liaoning Bengang won two games with the advantage of rebounds, and whoever had the highest number of rebounds in the four games basically announced the victory of the game. Therefore, for today's Guangdong Hongyuan, they must completely open their magic ball theory, that is, to make up for their own invagination with the ultimate offense, which is the most important feature and winning tactics.
In the first quarter, the Guangdong Hongyuan team relied on the breakthroughs of Xu Jie, Jordan Bell and Weems to maintain sporadic scoring, in fact, this is also because of Zhou Qi's absence, which made Guangdong Hongyuan's inside line a very big gap. Zhang Mingchi and Xu Xin's two inner lines still can't support Guangdong Hongyuan's inner line well, in fact, they are not to blame. After all, they are so young that none of them have ever made it to the semifinals of the playoffs. Compared with Han Dejun and Moreland on the other side, it is indeed too tender, but the determination of the whole team of Guangdong Hongyuan must not be underestimated.
Guangdong Hongyuan fell behind by 13 points in the first quarter, and there was a huge improvement in the second quarter, that is, Waters's play, after all, his breakthrough can indeed bring Guangdong Hongyuan some very big help, and his insoluble breakthrough can indeed consume the nature of Liaoning Bengang's compression defense of Guangdong Hongyuan, which also makes the outside line open up a certain space. Du Runwang completely broke out, Du Runwang's consecutive three points and the suspenseful score in the first half of this game, cut 11 points and 1 rebound in the half, which has changed everyone's opinion of it in this playoffs. Because Du Runwang has changed his own style of play since this season, he is no longer the anti-aircraft gun that can only shoot three-point shooting on the outside, but the coaching staff has let him take on a certain responsibility for the second flight, that is, to fight the opponent's big man in the inside, so Du Runwang also sacrificed a certain percentage of his own shooting, so the three-point shooting rate will be so struggling this season.
Xu Jie and Hu Mingxuan's three points were not opened, and the combined score of the two was only 12 points and 6 rebounds, which is not to blame Hongyuan's double guns, without Zhou Qi's inside line is too empty, and the inside ball of Zhang Mingchi can not be played, it is really possible that the defeat is decided, Jordan Bell scored 8 points and 5 rebounds in the half, which is the most playing time among the three foreign aids, and it is also the best one. On the other hand, Liaoning Fuge, Zhao Jiwei and Zhang Zhenlin are almost full of firepower, and without Zhou Qi's inner line, Hongyuan's inner line is almost blown up.
