The Xinjiang team had no defense
In the regular season, Xinjiang ranked first in the league in defensive efficiency, allowing opponents to score only 104.8 points per 100 possessions, and in the playoffs, Xinjiang still ranked first in defensive efficiency, allowing opponents to score only 104.1 points per 100 possessions. In the semifinals, the Xinjiang team eliminated the Zhejiang team 3-1, and we saw the terrifying defense of the Xinjiang team. is such a team with the best defense in the league, and the last game actually allowed the Liaoning team to score 121 points, and it is completely impossible to see that this is a finals, and the intensity is even lower than the regular season.
Zhang Zhenlin scored 19 points on 7-of-12 shooting, a 58% shooting percentage. Fu Hao scored 29 points on 12-of-15 shooting, an 80% shooting percentage. Han Dejun scored 23 points on 9-of-11 shooting, shooting 82 percent. Zhang Zhenlin played the Guangdong team, and the last four games were 4 of 17, 3 of 15, 1 of 7, and 6 of 15. Fu Hao's hook hand in training may not be as accurate as the Xinjiang team? Han Dejun couldn't touch Zhou Qi, and pressed Wu Guanxi and Li Yanzhe to the ground and rubbed them? This is still the league's No. 1 defense. Abdul Salamu, Wu Guanxi, and Li Yanzhe are too soft, and the Xinjiang team needs to become tougher, otherwise they will be swept by the Liaoning team.
Qiu Biao wants to reuse Rutubula
Playing normally, the Xinjiang team can't beat the Liaoning team, the two sides are really not a level team, the Xinjiang team is too lacking in experience in the finals, the Liaoning team is an old oiler in the finals, and the Xinjiang team must have strange soldiers! According to the front reporter, Qiu Biao has communicated a lot with Lu Tubula, and Lu Tubula has been matched with the main lineup in training, and Qiu Biao may reuse Lu Tubula in the second game.
Lu Tubula was a new star that the Xinjiang team focused on cultivating, but after Wu Guanxi and Li Yanzhe this season, Lu Tubula was marginalized, did not play a lot of time, and was basically abandoned by Qiu Biao in the playoffs. Although Rutubula's skills are relatively rough, he has outstanding physical fitness, good defense, very energetic, fast bounce speed, dunking with the ball, and very violent style of play, the Xinjiang team now needs this kind of positive and energetic players to infect others, Wu Guanxi is too soft, and the efficiency value is the lowest in the team. Of course, Rutubula needs to control fouls, he is too aggressive and prone to fouls. Look at the second scene, will Rutubula become the X-factor and play the odd soldier? Previously, Yang Ming made Liu Yanyu a key figure in changing the situation of the war.
If the Xinjiang team still loses badly in the second game, it will be too demoralizing, and if they can win the second game, they will get the home advantage.
