On the evening of December 26, the 2023-2024 CBA League continued. The Guangzhou team at home lost to the defending champion Liaoning team 76-93. This was the seventh game the team lost since the start of the second stage. Although they were at home, a large number of Liaoning team fans came to the Tianhe Stadium to cheer for the Liaoning team, stealing the limelight from the Guangzhou team fans. Under the tireless cheers of Liaoning fans, the Guangzhou team felt completely useless and finally suffered a fragile defeat.
The Guangzhou team’s performance in the opening stage was actually pretty good. Jiao Boqiao performed surprisingly tough when facing the Liaoning team’s foreign aid Morand, scoring 8 points in the first quarter. The game feeling of Cui Yongxi and several defenders was also online, and the Guangzhou team led by 4 points at the end of the first quarter. But even when playing smoothly, the Guangzhou team’s three-point shooting percentage was as low as a pitiful 14.3%, which also paved the way for the team’s subsequent collapse.
As the Liaoning team took the initiative to shrink and improve its defensive intensity in the interior, the Guangzhou team’s offensive efficiency plummeted. Zhao Jiwei took over the game in the second quarter. He hit four consecutive three-pointers in this quarter and led the team to reverse the score. In this quarter, the Liaoning team beat the Guangzhou team by 12 points in a single quarter, completely taking back the initiative in the game. If Guo Kai and foreign aid Moore hadn’t hit two consecutive three-pointers before halftime, the Guangzhou team would have faced an unfavorable situation of falling behind by double digits before halftime.
But in the second half, the Guangzhou team was completely misfired on the offensive end. In the entire second half, the Guangzhou team scored only 31 points. Throughout the game, Cui Yongxi, the highest scoring player of the Guangzhou team, only scored 16 points. Guangzhou team coach Guo Shiqiang has been anxiously directing from the sidelines, but his team has been unable to come up with an effective response method. Chen Yingjun, the core of the Guangzhou team’s backcourt, was completely lost in this game. He only scored 6 points on 1 of 7 shots. However, the team’s top player only performed like this, and it was difficult for the Guangzhou team to win the game.
On the other hand, the Liaoning team has maintained a high defensive intensity and its vitality on the offensive end has not diminished. Zhang Zhenlin played nearly the entire game and scored a game-high 30 points. When asked in an interview following the game if he would feel tired following playing for such a long time, Zhang Zhenlin smiled and said: “Not tired, I will never be tired.” When Liaoning team coach Hugo heard Zhang Zhenlin’s answer from the interpreter, He nodded approvingly. In today’s Liaoning team, Zhang Zhenlin plays an increasingly important role.
Although he lost the game, Guo Shiqiang still seemed quite relaxed following the game. After all, as the meritorious coach of the Liaoning team, he also has deep feelings for the Liaoning team. As Guo Shiqiang said: “The members of the Liaoning team and the Guangzhou team are all my disciples, and I am very happy whoever wins the game.” Talking regarding the reason why the Guangzhou team lost the game, Guo Shiqiang said: “The performance of the Liaoning team today is obvious Better than us, we lost because of lack of rebound protection and experience.” Cui Yongxi also agreed with the coach’s view and said that he needed to learn from the Liaoning team. “Our defense was okay at the beginning, but as our physical fitness declined, our execution ability also declined. Our opponents still have more game experience than us.” Cui Yongxi said.
