In the WCBA arena, several exciting matches have taken place.
Let's start with Sichuan Women's Basketball Team's game. The match between Sichuan and Zhejiang was a complete blowout from start to finish. In the first quarter, Sichuan gave Zhejiang a harsh "welcome" by scoring an impressive 32 points. They were incredibly fierce! Zhejiang's offense couldn't get going at all, without even a decent counterattack. By halftime, Sichuan had already built a massive 26-point lead, giving the impression that they had secured the victory early on.
In the second half, Sichuan continued their dominance, not only maintaining but also gradually expanding their lead. They ultimately won by a staggering 41-point margin, a truly crushing performance. Zhejiang could only cover their faces in defeat. Li Meng scored 7 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists, but the team's overall performance was lackluster. Only Zhang Min (10 points) and Chen Yijun (11 points) managed to score in double digits, while the rest of the team was virtually invisible.
On the other hand, Sichuan had a full team effort, playing with great intensity. Li Meng, Wang Siyu, Han Xu, Xiao Tong, Jia Saiqi, and Zhang Wanglai all contributed, showcasing their formidable collective strength. Some netizens commented: "Sichuan really played too easily in this game; it felt like Zhejiang was just a target for them to shoot at." Compared to other matches, Sichuan's performance was overwhelmingly dominant.
Next up is Shanxi Women's Basketball Team's game, which they played away against Shijiazhuang. Shanxi played steadily, although neither team pulled away in the first quarter, with Shanxi leading by only 1 point. However, in the second quarter, Shijiazhuang's offense faltered, scoring only 13 points at halftime. Such an offensive state was clearly difficult to sustain.
Shanxi took advantage and widened the gap. In the third quarter, they maintained their momentum, while Shijiazhuang tried but failed to close the gap. Ultimately, Shanxi won the game 91-82. This victory brought Shanxi their third consecutive win, propelling them to second place in the standings. This match highlighted Shanxi's stability and deep foundation.
Lastly, we have the match between Shanghai Women's Basketball Team and Shandong Women's Basketball Team, which was filled with twists and turns. In the first half, although Shanghai led, the score remained close, with Shandong scoring only 12 points in the second quarter. Shanghai seized the opportunity to expand their lead into double digits.
In the third quarter, Shandong seemed to regain some rhythm and clawed back some points, but Shanghai still held a comfortable advantage. In the final quarter, Shandong did not give up and closed the gap to 4 points, but Shanghai, relying on their lead accumulated in the first three quarters, managed to secure the victory, winning 84-79 against Shandong.
All these matches were quite thrilling. Looking at the overall performance, Sichuan Women's Basketball Team's match was particularly impressive. Their attacking power was unstoppable, completely overwhelming Zhejiang. While Shanxi also won convincingly, their match progressed more steadily in comparison. Shanghai, on the other hand, experienced greater fluctuations and ultimately had to rely on their lead from the first three quarters to stabilize the situation.
