On May 17, Beijing time, the second game of the CBA finals ended, and the Liaoning team finally defeated the Xinjiang team at home. The series is currently 2-0 ahead. However, in this game, the Liaoning team did not play easily in the last game, but encountered a very crazy counterattack by the Xinjiang team, and even they fell behind at the beginning of the game
The main reason for this backwardness is that at the beginning of the game, the Xinjiang team changed the offensive state of the previous game and began to impact and break through the basket of the Liaoning team. The Liaoning team used Fu Hao and Moreland's inside lineup at the beginning, Fu Hao's personal state was good, but Moreland's state was simply bad, the defense couldn't be prevented, and he also had physical contact with Abdul Salamu in a round, and almost escalated the foul
There is nothing to be done, and Yang Ming can only make personnel adjustments in advance. The combination of Han Dejun and Fogg can only play in advance, Moreland has completely become a spectator in this game, playing ten minutes in the whole game to get 3 points, and in the last game, Moreland only scored 1 point in the case of playing 11 minutes, although Moreland's character is a little free, but many fans do understand that he has such a little flaw, many fans still have a lot of tolerance for him, but now this is the finals, the Liaoning team has reached the most critical time, and absolutely no mistakes are allowed
In the next two games, the Liaoning team will go to the home of the Xinjiang men's basketball team to challenge the Xinjiang men's basketball team away, and those two games are crucial, if the Liaoning team can take a victory from the Xinjiang team, then the pressure will be well released, if the two away games are not held, then Moreland will continue this emotional state, the lineup of the Liaoning team will be under unprecedented pressure, Fogg and Han Dejun are very old after all, and it is impossible to face so many high-intensity confrontations in seven rounds of the finals
So there is really not much time left for Moreland to adjust, if he does not play well in the next few games of this season, and his personal state in the finals is not adjusted enough, then, even if Yang Ming personally signed him by name that year, I am afraid he will not appear in the squad of the Liaoning team next season!
