The CBA regular season continues with Guangdong hosting Beikong. After securing a five-game winning streak, Guangdong's record stands at 18 wins and 11 losses, temporarily ranking 8th in the league. Beikong, on the other hand, has suffered consecutive defeats, with a record of 15 wins and 13 losses, placing them 10th in the league. Both teams are evenly matched and eager to win the game to boost their morale and rankings. In the first half, Guangdong leads Beikong 55-45, but in the second half, Beikong closes the gap tightly. Ultimately, Guangdong narrowly defeats Beikong 99-98. With this thrilling victory, three incredible moments occurred during the game.
Three Unbelievable Moments:
-
Both teams played well throughout the game. In the final moments, Shen Zijie missed his second free throw, and Zhang Fan entered the line prematurely. Players beyond the three-point line can only enter the three-point area to grab rebounds after the free throw hits the rim. Fortunately, Guangdong still won; otherwise, overtime would have been tough. In the last play, Jilunwate's timely and crucial block was impressive. Otherwise, Zhang Fan would have had an easy layup.
-
Xu Jie performed exceptionally well, but playing over forty minutes per game is unsustainable. It's easy to get exhausted and risk injury. Please, Du Feng, give Xu Jie a rest in the next game.
-
Guangdong's reserves for shooting guards and small forwards are insufficient. There are only three players between 1.9 meters and 2 meters tall: Huang Rongqi starts, Zhang Wenyi comes off the bench, and then there's only one foreign player. When both starters and substitutes are fouled out, it becomes one big and four small players on the court. Finding someone other than Xu Jie who can organize and initiate plays is basically non-existent.
