Tonight, the CBA regular season ushered in a focus battle - Guangdong Hongyuan vs Beijing Shougang. After the first half of the game, the Guangdong team did not play its own characteristics at all, coupled with the referee did not "help", Su Wei stumbled to the legs of Beijing Shougang players and was blown a foul, Yi Jianlian was angry again to roar teammates, Guangdong team lost 13 points in the half is too normal.
Originally predicted that this Beijing-Cantonese battle would be a "spear" and "shield" battle, it was also likely to be a foul war, but after the first half, the situation of the game was unexpected by all fans. The Guangdong team did not play its own rhythm at all, only 3 of 14 three-pointers, shooting only 21%, assists were 8 times less than Beijing Shougang, rebounds were 10 less than their opponents, and there were almost no fast-paced offensive scores in the whole game, and the game did not go according to their familiar rhythm at all. On the other hand, Beijing Shougang also played not too much like "himself", three-point shots 15 shots 6, shooting rate of 40%, assists, rebounds overall dominance, and the two teams combined only appeared 9 free throw opportunities (Beijing 7 penalties 6, Guangdong 2 penalties 2), played unusually calm and reasonable, really not like the usual Beijing Shougang.
Of course, the Guangdong team played so ugly in the first half, and the platoon deployment of coach Du Feng is also somewhat related. Hu Mingxuan did not appear in the first half, Zhang Haojia started the fourth position to play the entire first half, facing the combination of Fan Ziming + Li Muhao of Beijing Shougang, the Guangdong team seemed to have no way to deal with and solve it. Veteran Su Wei has height and strength advantages, but the movement speed is indeed a bit slow, and he lost 3 fouls without playing for too long. On one of those occasions, it was clear that when Su Wei turned around and went down, he tripped over the knee of Beijing Shougang player Wang Xiaohui and fell, but the referee blew Su Wei a foul, which was a bit incomprehensible. Some netizens joked that the Guangdong team 5 hit 8 real hammers!
On the other hand, Yi Jianlian may not be in a physical condition, after the starter played for more than 4 minutes, he did not reappear until the end of the second quarter, but the pace and speed were obviously insufficient, and the performance on the defensive and offensive ends was quite sluggish. Perhaps seeing that the team is lagging behind more and more, and the performance of teammates is getting worse and worse, Yi Jianlian is a little anxious. It just so happened that Zhang Haojia and Yi Jianlian grabbed together when scrambling for rebounds, resulting in basketball out of bounds, which made Yi Jianlian unable to bear it, and roared angrily at Zhang Haojia, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhang Haojia's performance. In recent games, Yi Jianlian has already roared Xu Jie and Zhang Haojia successively, and it is estimated that it has a lot to do with the delay in achieving a perfect condition of the body and state, and the heart is anxious!
Of course, the guangdong team's backwardness and their own failure to play well has a lot to do, as long as the second half can first do a good job of defense, slowly stabilize the situation, and strive to find their own rhythm, chasing points and overtaking to win the ball is not impossible, after all, it is the originator of "20 points is a fart"!
