The first few rounds of this season's Beijing Shougang have been eye-catching, with a record of 5 wins and 1 loss after six rounds of matches, and recently won four consecutive wins, and the league ranking has reached fourth. Their iron-blooded defense, in particular, has suffocated the attacks of many teams. In the first six rounds of the game, only the Shanghai men's basketball team scored more than 100 (104 points) against Beijing Shougang. It is this Shanghai men's basketball team that defeated Beijing Shougang in the seventh round of the league, ending Beijing Shougang's recent winning streak.
On October 31, the CBA League ushered in the focus of Beijing Shougang against Shanghai men's basketball team.
I think the main reason is that Li Chunjiang's tactical deployment broke Yannis's iron-blooded defense.
After the four consecutive wins in Beijing Shougang's victory over Qingdao, I wrote an article on how to defeat Beijing Shougang, and I thought that if you want to defeat Beijing Shougang, you can't be dragged by the rhythm of their position warfare, so the chances of winning are not great. But if the pace of the game can be brought faster, then Beijing Shougang's iron-blooded defense will be frustrated. Because Beijing Shougang moves slowly overall, once they run, they can't keep up with the rhythm.
Although Beijing Shougang has an advantage in height, they have only 43.3 rebounds per game this season and rank 13th in the league. In this game against Shanghai, Beijing Shougang, which has a combination of two towers, rebounded by 10 less (32:42). This shows that Yannis actually slowed down the pace of the game, and he knew that once the pace of the game was fast, their lineup did not have any advantage.
No, Li Chunjiang found a way to break Yannis's iron-blooded defense, that is, to speed up the rhythm of the game, and the players on the field used the combination of blocking and demolition to run up and speed up the rhythm to tear through the defense of Beijing Shougang. This has received good results, and the Shanghai men's basketball team has a lot of opportunities to break through and shoot in the open position, and the rebounding has an advantage.
Therefore, I think that Beijing Shougang is most afraid of the team is like Guangdong, Zhejiang, Guangsha and Liaoning and other teams with impact and speed, in fact, Beijing Shougang's foul is not terrible, the terrible thing is that they are dragged into their rhythm, falling into the position battle slowly, their lineup has an advantage. Li Chunjiang understands all this better than we do, so he broke Yannis's iron-blooded defense and led the Shanghai men's basketball team to a big victory.
