23 points in a single quarter, playing the role of a strange soldier and difficult to savior
In the end, Xinjiang narrowly defeated the Shanghai team 109:104.
Wang Zhelin and Liu Zheng were absent one after another, and these two teams seem to be a sure thing. Although the Shanghai team was injured one after another, and their main player Zhao Rui also missed the game due to injury, the two sides still played a wonderful matchup.
It was a very tough game, even more intense than the last playoffs, and all the players played well. The two sides were at a stalemate until 25 seconds, when Xinjiang won by a narrow margin by virtue of their home advantage.
The Shanghai team had 11 fouls in this game, three more than Xinjiang, fully demonstrating the strength of a championship team.
Liu Peng has made a lot of adjustments to the team, and even Zhang Zhiyao, who has not played much this season, has also been given some opportunities to play. In such a situation, the team still played strongly, and even tied with Xinjiang.
Special mention should be made of the foreign player Bacon, who played well in this battle and he got 40 points from the team, which is the team's score. In this fight, he was very well-rounded, especially in some very critical moments.
Baken was a 33-minute substitute and he did not perform too badly. All of them scored high except for rebounds, with only one turnover, making a huge contribution to the team.
On the court, Beckon continued to play to his strengths, scoring in the opposition box and hitting a three-pointer from the perimeter.
However, in the closing stages of the game, Shanghai could have come back from defeat to victory. However, in the first 25 seconds of the game, Coach Liu Peng seemed to have voluntarily abstained, and Bakken's three points did not score, and there were no more foul opportunities.
