On the evening of December 15, the Beijing Enterprises men's basketball team defeated Sichuan Jinqiang 97-71 at home in the 17th round of the 2023-2024 CBA regular season, winning two consecutive victories and rising to seventh place in the winning percentage list in the provisional ranking. After the game, Beijing Control coach Min Lulei affirmed the performance of the young players in the team.
After experiencing many rounds of "devil" schedules, the Beijing Control team finally ushered in consecutive home games in the near future, and the opponent was relatively weak. In this game, facing the Sichuan team, which ranks last in the league's winning percentage list and only won 1 in 16 games, Beijing Control has a clear goal, which is to continue the momentum of victory.
Beijing Control started actively and efficiently, winning "30+" in the first quarter of two consecutive games, which also laid the foundation for the continued lead in the next three quarters. In this game, the core foreign aid Felder continued to be absent due to injury, and the young point guard Liao Sanning picked up the burden of organizing the offense. In this game, he had 11 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists, and did a good job of organizing the tandem when the opponent increased the defensive intensity and closed the score.
After the game, Min Lulei, the coach of Beijing Control, affirmed Sanning's performance, "This is the performance that the coaching staff has been looking forward to, and he did it in this game, and the data is very comprehensive." In fact, whether it is Sanning or Chen Guohao, these young players have a strong desire to win, and have been actively playing hard and training diligently. ”
Similar to the defeat of Fujian in the previous game, Beijing Control also limited the opponent's score to less than 100 points in this game. Regarding the team's defensive performance, Min Lulei said, "The whole team's defense was very good today, especially in the first half, everyone's attention was very focused, which was the key to our victory. ”
Compared with the previous rounds of consecutive defeats to 4 championship-level strong teams, the strength of the opponents in recent rounds is relatively weak, and the Beijing Control team seized the opportunity to improve the ranking through consecutive wins. Looking back on the recent rounds of games, Min Lulei was unwilling, "Indeed, it is very regrettable to lose to several strong teams before, and we have a chance to win a few games." In the end, they were all missed because of some psychological fluctuations and poor grasp of details. It's false to say there's no pressure in this kind of game, I have pressure in every game, no matter who the opponent is, that's what professional coaches need to deal with, I'm Xi used to it. So, my main task is to decompress the players so that they don't have to carry their burdens and play well in the next games. ”
