The Liaoning team defeated the Guangdong team with a score of 95 to 89 in the CBA regular season match. This outcome was not entirely unexpected, as Liaoning's Wells had an outstanding performance, scoring 30 points, grabbing 5 rebounds, and making 7 assists, which was almost fatal for the Guangdong team. In contrast, Guangdong's performance seemed somewhat weak, as they did not take advantage of key moments in terms of rebounds and missed opportunities at the free-throw line. Ultimately, Liaoning's advantages in various aspects, especially the strong performance of their foreign players, led to this victory. Honestly, Guangdong's situation in this game was quite awkward. Xu Jie played for 46 minutes on the court, hardly resting, and his physical energy was severely depleted. As you can see, his performance in the final crucial moments was not up to par. As for Guangdong's foreign player, Les, he did not play in this game at all. There must be a reason for Les not playing. He should have had the opportunity to play, but it is said that due to attitude issues, he did not participate in training, and the coach did not send him onto the court. As a result, the internal strife within the Guangdong team became apparent, and the conflict between Du Feng and Les has probably been brewing for some time. Some netizens expressed their opinions: Guangdong lost to Liaoning this time first because they did not perform well in rebounds, and their free throws were also lacking. Especially Xu Jie, who felt completely unable to shoulder the burden of the entire team after playing for so long, his physical energy was exhausted. Then, the fact that Les did not play clearly indicates there are problems within the team; otherwise, how could a foreign player just disappear? Returning to the game, Guangdong did indeed have opportunities, especially in free throws. During the game, they had a total of 26 free throw opportunities but only made 18, with a free throw success rate of only 69.2%. This was not their best performance; if their free throw success rate had been slightly higher, it might have changed the direction of the game. After all, in the crucial moments of the game, Liaoning's Wells was too powerful, completely dominating the rhythm. Guangdong's problems go far beyond these. Judging from the distribution of physical energy among the players, Guangdong obviously did not have good measures in place. Xu Jie hardly came off the court in this game, consuming too much energy, resulting in a noticeable decline in form in the second half. Moreover, without a reliable figure to share responsibility in the position of the small foreign player, Guangdong seems to have encountered significant problems. Liaoning, on the other hand, is very mature in utilizing their foreign players, and Wells' performance is not something an ordinary foreign player could achieve. Some netizens view the game this way: Guangdong was clearly passive in this game, and their foreign player, Les, did not even play a role on the court. Especially in the crucial moments, Guangdong had problems with both free throws and rebounds. Although Xu Jie tried his best, his severe physical exhaustion led to poor overall performance. Liaoning's Wells is really strong; he almost single-handedly led the team, and Guangdong could not stop him. Speaking of Les' absence, the issue with foreign players is really worth investigating deeply. The conflict between Les and the team has probably reached a point where it cannot be ignored anymore. You think, as a foreign player, if his state and attitude are problematic, it's no wonder that Guangdong wants to replace him. Guangdong's goal is not just to play mediocre games; they want to compete for the championship. If Les cannot make substantial contributions, it would be better to replace him with a more suitable player than let him waste time. After all, Les is on a short-term contract of one month, and Guangdong never expected him to contribute much. Some netizens expressed this opinion: Les not playing is an issue of internal management and atmosphere within the team. Du Feng is dissatisfied with him, and Les is dissatisfied with Du Feng, leading to this situation. There are problems with the team's atmosphere, and there is a lack of trust and tacit understanding among the players. Guangdong's management needs to seriously consider whether to continue like this or find a more suitable foreign player to fill this gap. The loss in the game, in addition to Liaoning's strong performance, the chaos within Guangdong's team is also an undeniable factor. Les' absence illustrates the problem, and the team's poor free throw performance and rebounding disadvantage also caused them to lose control of the game. Judging from the current situation, Guangdong definitely needs to make adjustments, especially in terms of foreign players. Perhaps finding a more suitable small foreign player could help them overcome this difficulty.
