To say a point of view do not know whether everyone recognizes or disagrees: for the CBA, the regular season is really worth watching the number of games is not very much, but as long as the two sides of the "strong dialogue", once they meet in the playoffs, the regular season experience is very "reference" value.
Take the 7th round of the "focus battle" Guangdong vs. Liaoning that just passed, there is a lot to say.
We analyze in a "big and small" way.
First of all, in terms of the final result of the game.
124-101, Zhejiang beat Guangdong by 23 points, this score is not quite "normal".
Because as the defending champion, or just won the 11th championship in the history of the "3 consecutive championships", some fans may feel that Guangdong's strength is because of "attack", in fact, not only that, in my opinion, their defense is the most important "magic weapon" that really "pulls" the team back at the moment of crisis.
For example, in the playoffs against Beijing, Fang Shuo was prevented from making an "out-of-bounds ball" mistake at the last moment, and then the ball power conversion had the best "absolute draw" of the season in Weems, otherwise it is really difficult to say who will be promoted in the end.
There is also the final against Liaoning, the whole team of three armed forces with their lives, from the opening moment to spare no effort to defend physically, so magically maintain this intensity for 48 minutes, whenever Liaoning feels that Guangdong's physical fitness is about to keep up with its own opportunities, Guangdong as if there is "telepathy", and hard to raise the defense again to a "strength", a contest is to completely "suppress" Liaoning's mood, the game is so wonderful and difficult to win.
There is nothing wrong with saying that Guangdong is the best defensive team in the league.
Therefore, it is said that a team with such a strong defense, in the case of all the main forces, the game is won or lost aside, at least it should not lose so many points.
However, Guangdong has lost so many points, where is the problem?
The answer is not difficult to find, and it is obvious to open the technical statistics to see a statistic: 26 points + 17 rebounds.
When did Zhejiang come out with such a "strong" internal line, was it Zhu Xuhang? It is unlikely that Zhu Can score 26 points after shooting a three-point shot, but as a "high battery" on the outside, he does not enter the "three-second zone" much, let alone grab 17 rebounds.
Is it Zhang Dayu? It is also unlikely that, as a relatively traditional interior lineman, if he can occasionally grab 17 rebounds in a game, it is still possible, but as a player whose offensive means are not rich, especially the independent offensive ability is not very strong, it is not easy to get 26 points, and the most important thing is that his tactical position does not allow him to be so "high-profile".
The answer is revealed, he is just entered the first team this year, has been well-known in the domestic internal new star --- Yu Jiahao.
This is the second point we want to analyze Guangdong's loss: from the content of the game.
Speaking of this, some fans may wonder, Guangdong has not encountered strong internal players in recent years, especially last season, there was no Yi Jianlian in the whole process, but it was not also successful in defending the title, why can a rookie "rookie" make Guangdong so "embarrassed"?
Because this "rookie" is not the same as the inside line of the current league.
With a height of 221 cm and a weight of 130 kg, it can be said that from the perspective of body size, it is a walking "tank", and the height and tonnage are the only ones in The country.
Then there is that if you look closely at Yu Jiahao's game, you will find that this "behemoth" is not as "clumsy" on the field as we think, his speed and frequency are very fast, which can be described by the phrase we often hear: faster than him is not as high as him, taller than him... It seems that there are really few, that is, another rookie In Qingdao that many fans pay attention to, Gao Shiao, but there is one thing to say, Xiao Gao's talent is still slightly inferior compared to Xiao Yu.
With such a "unique" physical condition, not finished, Yu Jiahao also has a very rich offensive skills, mid-range shooting, basket small hookers, and some of the footsteps under the basket are very similar, the most important thing is that the young man's playing style is very fierce, especially some of the second rebounding scrambles are very outstanding, it can be said that it is a "pillar of power".
That Guangdong's inner line, although the UAE has come back, but basically it is to stop and stop, even if the fight is also a strict control of time, and objectively speaking, the current UAE Is indeed old, even if he exerts all his strength, he may not be able to have the upper hand.
As for Su Wei, it may really only be suitable for the slow movement of the defensive Dahan and the relatively "single" internal line of the attack, facing Yu Jiahao, he can't "get close" at all, and the side has completed the attack.
There is also a Zeng Fanri, the young man has indeed improved a lot this season, but the height is too short, Yu Jiahao stood there without jumping the light and reaching out to Ari has already reached the dust, think there is even a little bitterness.
But Ari does not have to be discouraged, after all, there is only one Yu Jiahao in the whole league, you still perform well against most of the inside line, continue to work hard, you are already on the road...
This problem was completely "exposed", not with the weak internal line before winning the championship in Guangdong, including Du Feng's use of the "five up and five down" tactics, but also temporarily used "speed" to slow down the "height" gap.
The most important thing is that everything is that you can't meet the super inside line, so coincidentally, Yu Jiahao's super inside line is so undisguised.
At the end of the game, Du Feng walked over with a smile on his face and shook hands with Liu Weiwei enthusiastically, but when the camera swept to Zhu Fangyu, the general manager of Guangdong Hongyuan Club, who was sitting in the back row, his face was "cloudy" and his brow was "tight".
I don't know if Zhu always thinks of the UAE League injured last season, the offseason he has a variety of "reinforcements" scenes.
At that time, the "objects" included Wu Guanxi in Jiangsu, Li Muhao in Shenzhen, Fan Ziming who returned to Guangzhou from Xinjiang, and so on.
It can be said that in addition to Wang Zhelin. Zhou Qi's "non-selling products", everything that can be asked, can "open their mouths", Zhu Fangyu contacted again, but the final result is that Wu Guanxi stayed in Jiangsu, and Fan Ziming and Li Muhao both went to Beijing.
Zhu Fangyu --- particles were not harvested.
It may be that he is extremely depressed about his own efforts and final gains, so Zhu Fangyu rarely "complained" on personal social media: I am very surprised and sorry about this transaction, according to the information and official announcements I have, we can offer better conditions. Alas, it can only be said that there is no fate, or it may be that Hongyuan is too powerful, and only such an operation can stop the Hongyuan team, but I believe that nothing can stop the Hongyuan team from moving forward.
If it is not that Guangdong's internal line really has reached the point where "mountains and rivers are exhausted" and must be strengthened, Zhu Fangyu will definitely not make such great efforts to do this, and the final result is still such a backfire.
Last season, there was no Yi Jianlian, and there was no reinforcement of the internal line, Guangdong still won the championship, which can be regarded as a breath of air for Zhu Fangyu, but after winning the championship at that time, I said bluntly that if Guangdong did not strengthen the internal line, it would be impossible to have such a chance to win the championship in the future.
Sure enough, Zhejiang has Yu Jiahao, the overall strength of the team has completely improved a notch, Liaoning Dahan is old and strong, the most important thing is that Zhu Rongzhen has grown visibly, even if the Guangdong regular season maximizes the "province" use of the UAE, but in the playoffs has been 34 years old and has suffered from Achilles tendon rupture injury how much can you point to him to contribute? Speaking of the intensity of the playoffs, can the UAE's body still hold up?
Of course, there are also fans who say that Xu Xin will officially turn 18 years old in late December, and he can play for the first team, and then he can relieve the pressure on the inside line.
I don't know, have you really seen some of Xu Xin's training videos, to say the most objective, I think he can only count as a piece of "pu jade" at most, as to whether it can be developed in the end is really difficult to say, and then Guangdong this season, although Du Feng shouted out the goal of advanced "playoffs", but everyone knows that this is "scene words", the only goal of the defending champion is to continue to "defend the title", and you point this burden to a young general who has just turned 18 years old to "carry", somewhat unrealistic...
Zhu Fangyu: Maybe Hongyuan is too powerful... Who can see that this is a self-consolation after his extreme loss?
Inside line, really a problem...
