On October 24, Beijing time, the CBA regular season ushered in a focus battle, the Guangdong men's basketball team faced the Shanghai men's basketball team, the Guangdong men's basketball team maintained the lead for most of the time, and opened the point difference in the last quarter, and finally won 112-97 against Shanghai, won 4 consecutive wins, and continued to remain unbeaten. Zhou Peng exploded 31 points and 11 rebounds in this campaign, becoming the biggest contributor. Although Shanghai lost, the 21-year-old Guo Haowen became the biggest highlight, scoring 28 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists to fill the data column.
As the defending champion, the Guangdong men's basketball team made a good start, winning 3 consecutive wins, and their dominance was still strong even after Yi Jianlian played only 7 minutes. After Li Chunjiang took over, the team's mental outlook has changed significantly, and it was only after losing to Beijing in the last round that it suffered its first defeat of the season, and the overall performance was still very good.
Yi Jianlian missed the third consecutive game, Su Wei started, And Ren Junwei and Ren Junfei brothers started at the same time and competed in the same game. Shanghai started quickly, taking the lead at the beginning, and Guangdong scored consecutive points at the end of the first quarter to overtake the score, leading by 2 points in the first quarter. Guangdong played a wave of climax in the second quarter, and the point difference reached 15 points at one point, but Shanghai withstood the pressure, Guo Haowen became a surprise soldier, and Shanghai chased only 5 points before the end of halftime.
Shanghai bit the score in the third quarter, Guo Haowen's state is still outstanding, his breakthrough and impact make Guangdong's defense very uncomfortable, a single quarter cut 14 points, the Shanghai men's basketball team always kept the point difference within 10 points, at the end of the third quarter Shanghai fell behind by 8 points, leaving suspense in the last quarter.
In the final quarter, Guangdong still showed the advantage of strength, captain Zhou Peng was very efficient in this campaign, 13 of 17 shots to get a new season high of 31 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists, Guangdong gradually widened the point difference, and finally led all the way to shanghai, winning 4 consecutive wins in the opening game. In addition to Zhou Peng, Hu Mingxuan, Zhao Rui and Xu Jie also scored in double figures.
The Shanghai men's basketball team suffered two consecutive defeats, but there are still bright spots, that is, Guo Haowen, who came off the bench for 33 minutes, shot 8 of 11, including 5 three-pointers, bombed down 28 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, filled the data column, played the best game of the season, and his impact brought great trouble to the defending champion. I believe that such a performance will definitely make Li Chunjiang look in the eyes, and this potential rising star is expected to get more opportunities to play in the future.
