The fifth round of the CBA regular season continues, with Shandong High-Speed hosting the Challenge of the Jilin Siberian Tigers. In the first four rounds of the game, the two teams had the same record, both wins and two losses, with Jilin ranking ninth and Shandong ranking tenth. This round of encounters became a ranking battle between the two teams.
From the perspective of the configuration of the two sides, the Shandong Expressway, which ranks low, actually has more advantages, and the Shandong inner line with Tao Hanlin is not a grade stronger than the weak inner line of Jilin Province. The Gillings game relies more on the feel of the outside. This battle Shandong team did not take advantage of anything in the first half, but the Jilin team performed better, the tactical pertinence was stronger, the two sides were basically in a stalemate in the first half, the game went to the third quarter, Shandong team played its own advantage, played a 27-14 offensive in the single quarter, the lead reached more than 20 points, laying the foundation for victory in one fell swoop, but unfortunately in the fourth quarter, due to the improper control of the rookie coach Xu Changsuo, he almost let Jilin see the hope of overturning, and finally there was no danger to defeat the opponent 93-87.
Although Shandong Expressway won the game as desired, the two major fronts of Jiao Hailong and Liu Guancen were injured and left the game in the game, making the Shandong men's basketball team pay a great price. This also left a lot of hidden dangers for the competition behind the Shandong expressway, especially the injury of Jiao Hailong, which brought a lot of trouble to the inner line rotation that was not rich, fortunately, according to Shandong media news, Jiao Hailong and Liu Guancen's injuries were not serious, Jiao Hailong also had to determine the injury through further examination, and Liu Guancen was an ordinary foot, and a few breaks could be recovered.
In this game, Gao Shiyan once again became the brain of the team, as the core point guard of the team, he played 41 minutes, shot 6 of 15 in the whole game, and cut down 13 points, 17 assists, 7 rebounds and 2 steals of super comprehensive data. 17 assists to equal the personal CBA career single-game assist record, it is worth mentioning that the last time to create a record of 17 assists is to face the old home Jilin team, saying that Gao Shiyan is the bitter master of the Jilin team is not excessive, at the same time he also contributed greatly on the defensive end, he and Chen Peidong joined forces to let Jilin backcourt scoring core, average 19.3 points per game Jiang Weize, the whole game of three-point shooting only 1 of 10 shots, only 7 points.
Another interesting player in Shandong, Ding Yanyuhang, started for the second consecutive game, he played 24.7 minutes, three-pointers shot 4 of 9, 4 of 4 of those three-pointers, contributed 14 points, grabbed 5 rebounds, and had 1 assist. Although Ding's three-point feeling is very hot, his breakthrough and two-point shooting have still not been achieved, and since the beginning of the game, Ding Yanyuhang's two-point shooting has only hit 3 of 14. This should be more depressing for Xiaoding. From Zhao Zilong, who killed Changshan inside and out in the past, to Li Guanghuarong, who now has frequent cold arrows. After Xiaoding's comeback, he is obviously undergoing a role change. But at the same time, it can be seen that Xiaoding is also trying to find the memory of the past, constantly looking for rhythm through the game, hoping to find the eighteen weapons of the past and return with blood.
This game, for Shandong Expressway, should have been an easy to win game, but because the coach Xu Changsuo's on-the-spot adaptability was too poor, resulting in a very passive play in the last moments of the game, the scene was really embarrassing, a big win became a dangerous victory, this control ability obviously could not be recognized by the fans, coupled with the injury of the two generals, Tao Hanlin dragged the huge weight of the center for 42 minutes, (Tao Hanlin ranked first in the league in average playing time), Gao Shiyan played 41 minutes, Chen Peidong played 40 minutes. The team is also seriously disconnected from the high-density game in terms of personnel rotation, and the probability of player injury hazards has increased significantly, and the superposition of these reasons has made the fans shout out the sound of Xu Changsuo's class, from the first five rounds of matches, Xu Changsuo's appointment as manager is indeed somewhat inadequate. In this way, the Shandong Expressway will soon be deserted. The team's record is worrying.
