CBA League: Behind Liaoning Men's Basketball's Close Loss to Qingdao, How Many Unknown Secrets Are Hidden
The CBA league match where Liaoning men's basketball narrowly lost to Qingdao hides many secrets unknown to the public. Netizens have pointed out incisively and vividly that in this game, Liaoning could not afford to lose in the fourth quarter, which was lackluster and relaxed. The defensive problems were too big, and Liaoning should reflect on this well and play better in future games. Yang Hanshen knows how to play against Han Dejun now and also knows how to defend him. He is no longer afraid of Han Dejun, which is a significant improvement. It seems that Yang Hanshen has never faced Zhou Qi before. Zhou Qi is very agile, and their core strength should be about the same. If he can defeat Zhou Qi, the top domestic center, there will only be Hu Jinqiu left.
Currently, Yang Hanshen cannot defend Hu Jinqiu because Hu Jinqiu is faster than him, with more diverse offensive methods and strong finishing ability. He temporarily cannot defend Hu Jinqiu. The NBA regular season requires playing 82 games each season, which places extremely high demands on tall centers' physical fitness. Playing one season there is equivalent to two seasons in the CBA in terms of the number of games, and the intensity, speed, and rhythm of the games are three levels higher than the CBA.
In this game, Liaoning's overall performance against Qingdao was mediocre. Liaoning had four national players injured, one remaining, plus a top small foreign aid and a decent big foreign aid, so they did not lose out in terms of lineup to any team.
The most uncomfortable thing about narrowly losing to Qingdao might be for coach Yang Ming. Previously, when the team lost, they could find an excuse by saying they were missing Zhao Jiwei and the big foreign aid. Therefore, I personally feel that Yang Hanshen's physical fitness, speed, endurance, body confrontation ability, and core strength have not yet reached the requirements of the NBA. The NBA may revise the game rules next season, possibly increasing the low-post offensive space for centers in the future. Basketball tactics will focus more on high-low post tactical cooperation, and the small-ball tactics may already be outdated. The core logic of the small-ball tactics emphasizes the number of offensive rounds in the game.
In the final moments, Fredette was physically exhausted, Zhao Jiwei's condition was very poor, Yan Shouqi has been daydreaming in recent games, Han Dejun and Li Xiaoxu are getting older, their defense cannot keep up, and their offense is weak. Such a lineup has lost its attacking ability, and losing is inevitable.
More opportunities should be given to young players like Wang Lanqin and Li Huyi, and they should be encouraged to dare to fight and strive. They should go all out as soon as they enter the court, just do it, instead of blowing their beards and staring when making a mistake, making the young players timid, not daring to move, not daring to ask for the ball, and even less daring to shoot.
From a mathematical logic perspective, if my number of offensive rounds is more than yours, winning becomes a probability issue under the same shooting percentage. Morand must have passed his peak in terms of physical fitness, but his physical fitness can still allow him to play 40 minutes in the CBA. For someone Morand's age, their effective physical fitness in the NBA is probably only about 20 minutes. Judging from Guo Shiqiang leading the team in a game against the Development League team, Yang Hanshen's effective physical fitness is only about 15 minutes.
Thank you all for your continued attention to me. On the journey of creation, I am grateful for your company, and I will continue to work hard!
