Although Ferg fought hard and gradually helped Liaoning close the gap, Beijing maintained their lead, ending the first quarter with a 21-17 advantage.
In the second quarter, the two teams engaged in even more intense competition. Ferg and Wells gradually found their form, scoring from outside to help Liaoning stay close. Especially Ferg's personal performance was astonishing, with several excellent shots that continuously narrowed the point difference. Although Beijing maintained a slight lead, both sides had strong offensive momentum. At halftime, Beijing led 50-41.
In the third quarter, Liaoning fought back fiercely, successfully launching a small climax of 30-25. However, in the final quarter, Beijing suddenly increased their efforts, especially the performances of Zhou Qi and Lei Meng, which prevented Liaoning from seizing the opportunity to reverse the situation. Ultimately, Beijing won with a score of 105-90 thanks to their team's outstanding performance.
Analysis of Liaoning Team Players' Performance:
Unbelievable Fact One: Ferg's Explosiveness
Ferg was undoubtedly the brightest player for Liaoning in this game. As soon as he took the court, he displayed excellent offensive form, scoring multiple times to help Liaoning relieve pressure. Especially in the closing stages of the first quarter, his consecutive points kept the team's score from being too far behind. Throughout the game, Ferg contributed a comprehensive set of statistics with 24 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 assists, becoming the main pillar of the team's offense. His explosiveness and stability became the only highlight that Liaoning could be proud of.
Unbelievable Fact Two: Wells' Ups and Downs
Wells' performance was like a roller coaster; at the beginning of the game, he almost couldn't find his rhythm, missing many shots and appearing less proactive on defense. Surprisingly, in the second quarter, he suddenly woke up, continuously scoring through precise shooting to help Liaoning narrow the point difference and even tie the score at one point. In the entire game, Wells eventually contributed 17 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists. Although his statistics were not bad, he failed to maintain stable performance, remaining one of the key reasons for Liaoning's loss.
Unbelievable Fact Three: Han Dejun's Silence
Han Dejun's performance was disappointing. After the start of the game, he seemed to have not entered the state at all, posing no threat on the offensive end and appearing less determined on defense. In the entire game, he only scored 5 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists. Although he made some defensive contributions, his overall performance fell short of expectations. Shockingly, as the core of the team's interior, Han Dejun's performance was so mediocre, which was truly unexpected.
Unbelievable Fact Four: Li Xiaoxu's Depression
Li Xiaoxu's depressed performance was also one of the reasons for Liaoning's defeat. From the beginning of the game, his shooting touch was cold, and he completely lost his firepower on the offensive end. On the defensive end, Li Xiaoxu also failed to provide enough support to the team. Although he had some rebounding performance, overall, Li Xiaoxu failed to become a scoring point for the team. He contributed 3 points and 5 rebounds in the entire game, failing to play an important role in the team.
Personal Analysis:
This game exposed various problems Liaoning faced in critical moments. Ferg's personal explosiveness is indeed a highlight for the team, but the inconsistent performance of Wells and the depressed performances of Han Dejun and Li Xiaoxu were the fundamental reasons for Liaoning's loss. Especially in the final quarter, Beijing seized the defensive loopholes of Liaoning and successfully locked in the victory through the key performances of Zhou Qi and Lei Meng. This once again proves that the team's overall coordinated combat and stability are the keys to determining victory or defeat, and Liaoning still has a lot of room for improvement in this aspect. It is hoped that they can quickly adjust their state, regain the rhythm of the game, and meet the challenges ahead.
