The fierce battle between the Liaoning men's basketball team and the Beijing Enterprises men's basketball team ignited the craze of the second phase of the CBA regular season on December 1. This game carries all kinds of expectations, however, the Liaoning team has been tested with an uneven lineup. Allen Guo and Moreland were unable to play due to injury, which added a lot of difficulties to Liao Basket.
At the beginning of the game, the Beijing Control team ushered in the return of key players such as Liao Sanning and Wang Shaojie, and Zhang Fan showed extraordinary shooting skills in the first quarter. Although Fogg slashed a three-pointer in the first quarter, Zhang's touch ensured the North's lead, and they led by 13 points in just one quarter.
In the second quarter, the Liaoning team fought to catch up, but Liao Sanning's brave play allowed Beikong to maintain the lead. As the game entered the third quarter, Liaoning changed their tactics and adopted a tight defense, while three-pointers from Zhao Jiwei and Fogg helped the team regain the initiative in the game. The point difference was widened, and the Liaoning team once led by double digits.
However, when the game came to the fourth quarter, the North Control team showed a tenacious fighting spirit and tried to counterattack. However, Liaoning kept their cool and eventually came back to win, extending their all-win streak this season. The heroes of this game are Fogg and Zhao Jiwei. Fogg scored 26 points in the first half and stabilized the situation for Liao Basket. Zhao Jiwei led the Liaoning team to victory with tenacious fighting spirit, excellent defense and organizational skills.
However, it should not be overlooked that the Liaoning team also has players who have been in a slump. In the first half, Fu Hao's concentration was not enough and he was angrily scolded by Zhao Jiwei, but the real sluggish player was Zhang Zhenlin. The player, who was supposed to be a strong point in the front, had a terrible performance in the game, contributing only 2 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists in 28 minutes of playing time, and had a poor shooting performance. His sluggish performances have sparked discontent among fans, especially with Allen Kwok and Moreland unavailable, and Zhang Zhenlin needs to contribute more or his controversy will continue.
This game was full of passion and twists and turns, and the Liaoning men's basketball team finally succeeded in counterattacking and continuing their winning record. The victory not only showed the team's unity and fighting spirit, but also made the fans look forward to the upcoming matches. Zhang, on the other hand, is under more pressure to prove himself in future matches to respond to criticism and win more victories for the team. This season's CBA regular season is still full of suspense and excitement, and we will wait and see if the Liaoning men's basketball team can continue their excellent performance.
