At 19:30 on December 22, Beijing time, the CBA regular season continued to compete for the sixteenth round. Zhejiang Chouzhou Jinzu Men’s Basketball Team faced Guangdong Dongguan Dayi Men’s Basketball Team. The Zhejiang team, which had only 8 players, finally lost 89-94, and the 15-game winning streak came to an end.
Originally, this should have been an evenly matched focus battle, but many men’s basketball teams in Chouzhou, Zhejiang were absent due to infection. The absence of main players such as Wu Qian and Cheng Shuipeng made the Zhejiang team only have an 8-man roster. Even so, not all the players on the court were in their best form. Wang Zailu might be seen coughing hard when he made a free throw in the first quarter. The Guangdong team basically played with all members.
The Zhejiang team, which lost 7 points in the first quarter, overtook the score very strongly in the second quarter. Because of the absence of Wu Qian and Cheng Shuipeng, Liu Zeyi and Lu Wenbo undertook a lot of dribbling across the half court and organizing the offense. At the end of the half, the Zhejiang team led by 2 points and won the Guangdong team by 9 points in a single quarter. The Zhejiang team was very effective in defense, and the Guangdong team almost failed to make a quick transition from defense to offense in the second quarter.
The Zhejiang team was tied with the Guangdong team in the third quarter. But following all, the Guangdong team has sufficient personnel and often uses five-up and five-down methods to attack the Zhejiang team with players who have just been fully charged off the court. In the end, the Zhejiang team was opened up in the fourth quarter. Yu Jiahao, a big center with a height of 2.21 meters, was unable to participate in the offense for several rounds due to exhaustion.
After several seasons of youth storms, the golden generation of the Zhejiang team has fully matured this season. Wu Qian, Cheng Shuipeng, Lu Wenbo, and Wang Yibo have all reached the peak period with the best combination of court experience and physical condition. Liu Zeyi has replaced Zhu Xuhang’s position as the main power forward following leaving, and has become a surprise player for the Zhejiang team this season. Although Yu Jiahao is still somewhat inexperienced, following all, his physical condition is one of the best among young players at the same position in the league. His role as a fulcrum and basket protector in the interior has already brought great help to the team.
In the past, the Zhejiang team was often held back by foreign aid. The small foreign aid Gary and the large foreign aid Wright selected this season are well integrated into the team system. Gary averaged 19.9 points, 8.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 2.8 steals per game. Wright averaged 11 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game.
For a long time, Zhejiang’s defensive efficiency has been ranked No. 1 in the league. Among them, it ranks No. 1 in the league in restricting opponents to the basket, and ranks No. 3 and No. 5 in restricting opponents’ three-pointers and mid-range distances. In terms of offense, it ranks No. 1 in efficiency 2. Ranked No. 1 in net efficiency, No. 1 in basket and mid-range success rate, top 2 in both rebounds and assists.
The regular season was booming, but it was a pity that they were out of the playoffs. It was a true portrayal of the Zhejiang team for four consecutive seasons. In the 18-19 season, he was eliminated by the Guangsha team from the same province at 8 o’clock in 12. In the 19-20 season, he was eliminated by the Liaoning team when he scored 8 and scored 4. The semi-finals of the 20-21 season were eliminated by the Liaoning team. In the 21-22 season, Liu Weiwei resigned sadly following losing 0-2 to the Guangdong team with 8 goals and 4 points. It can be seen from the history of the playoffs in the past few years that the Zhejiang team, which played well in the regular season, will expose its postseason performance when it encounters championship teams such as Liaoning, Guangdong, and Guangsha in the playoffs. Insufficient game experience and slightly poor overall strength.
