Shanghai Team's "Reversal Journey": From Lagging Behind to 11 Consecutive Wins
When the Shanghai team challenged the Tongxi team away from home, this match seemed destined to be full of drama. In the early stages of the game, the Shanghai team quickly took control of the rhythm, but the Tongxi team was not willing to give in and reversed the score with sharp counterattacks. At halftime, the Shanghai team unexpectedly fell behind. Facing pressure, the Shanghai team adjusted their tactics in the second half, gradually stabilized and completed the comeback. The most thrilling moment came at the end of the fourth quarter. The Tongxi team, with their tenacious will, dragged the score into overtime. In overtime, both sides continued to exchange blows, with no clear advantage. However, the "Mr. Key" of the Shanghai team, Lofton, stood out, scoring continuously to stabilize the situation and ultimately helped the team narrowly win with a slight advantage. This victory not only allowed the Shanghai team to achieve 11 consecutive victories but also solidified their position on the leaderboard.
Liaoning vs. Guangdong: Behind the Peak Clash
The match between Liaoning and Guangdong, known as the "Focus Battle," is undoubtedly the most anticipated matchup of this round. Despite missing key players, both traditional powerhouses still delivered high-level performances. At the beginning of the game, Guangdong took the lead under Xu Jie's leadership, but Liaoning equalized and overtook the score with more shooting opportunities and Wells' stable performance. The suspense of the game's outcome was revealed only at the last moment. When Guangdong tried to reverse the situation through defensive counterattacks, Fu Hao of Liaoning scored a crucial three-pointer. This shot not only shattered Guangdong's hopes of a comeback but also secured Liaoning's four consecutive victories. After the game, discussions about Guangdong's "lack of key problem-solving ability among small foreign players" once again sparked heated debate. Fans expressed that if Guangdong wants to go further in the playoffs, they must quickly adjust their lineup and solve the issue of foreign players' weakness in positional battles.
Xinjiang Team's "Team Basketball": From Tug-of-War to Steady Progress
Compared to the matches between Shanghai and Liaoning, the confrontation between Xinjiang and Beijing showcased the charm of team basketball. From the first quarter, Xinjiang displayed extremely high game intensity. Peterson had a hot hand, continuously hitting three-pointers to help the team take an early lead. However, Beijing bloomed from multiple points, overtaking the score through quick transitions. In the second half, Beijing's shooting percentage suddenly dropped, while Xinjiang seized the opportunity, taking the lead again through a combination of inside and outside tactics. In the third quarter, Beijing briefly succeeded in catching up, but missed the chance to adjust due to untimely timeouts at critical moments. In the fourth quarter, Xinjiang extended the gap to double digits through continuous scoring by Peterson and Xierzati. Ultimately, Xinjiang ended the battle with a satisfying victory. Notably, two young players from Xinjiang, Yili Fulaite and Xierzati, stood out with their performance. They contributed 34 points not only in scoring but also showed strong aggressiveness in defense. Such performances have given people a glimpse of Xinjiang's limitless potential in the future.
Shanxi Team's "Way of Big Victory": The Logic Behind the Complete Domination
Compared to other games filled with tension and suspense, Shanxi's 33-point victory over Jilin was nothing short of a "visual feast." Throughout the game, Shanxi demonstrated complete domination over their opponents on both offense and defense. From protecting rebounds to executing fast breaks, Shanxi hardly gave Jilin any chance to fight back. This game not only consolidated Shanxi's position in the standings but also gave the outside world a new understanding of their overall strength. Perhaps this team is quietly brewing its own dark horse miracle.
