cba In the second game of the Liaoning-Guangdong playoffs in the 2023-24 season, the Guangdong Men’s Basketball Team, after welcoming back Zhou Qi, burst out with a completely different spirit and competitiveness from the first game, successfully conquering Liaoning’s home court with a huge 16-point lead, and ended the series The score was rewritten to 1-1. In this campaign, the first contributor to the Guangdong men's basketball team was Xu Jie, who had a plus-minus value of +21. Center Xu not only made 10 of 16 shots in this game, but also scored 26 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals. He also played a role in boosting morale and showing off his style on the court, and his leadership qualities were clearly visible.
In the game, Xu Jie successfully scored against Zhang Zhenlin's defense, and then roared at the latter to celebrate. This can be regarded as helping his younger brother Xu Xin to "revenge one stone" by being dunked and greeted by the quintessence of the Chinese nation by Zhang Zhenlin in the previous game. . Although Xu Jie was whistled for a technical foul for this aggressive move, his move ignited the Guangdong team's desire to win and greatly boosted morale.
This move also made Xu Zhongfu the "target of public criticism" in the audience, and the home fans also gave their response-"Xu Jie is stupid" one after another. Center Xu remained unmoved, and his presence in the game did not weaken at all. His key performance of 14 points in the third quarter set the tone for the game. This passion even infected the entire team. Zhang Haojia also followed suit after hitting the goal. Roaring in celebration. Xu Jie's 26 points in this game set a new playoff career high, and his true shooting percentage was 73.2%. Although he scored 20 points in the last game, the plus-minus value was an embarrassing -30. In this game, center Xu finally made a difference. Clear your name.
What's even more admirable is that Xu Jie's emotions only stay on the court, and the situation off the court opens up! After the game, when the players of the two teams lined up, Xu Zhongfeng shook hands with Zhang Zhenlin and put aside their grudges. Even if the Liaoning home fans made rude remarks, Xu Zhongfeng knew that these were part of the game and did not take it seriously. I believe it is this clear distinction between the field and the field that allows Xu Jie to always provide positive help no matter how the team's performance goes up and down. This is also the reason why Du Feng's coach values him so highly.
In addition to center Xu, Jordan Bell, the third foreign aid who joined the Guangdong team before the end of the regular season, also played an important role. This former Warriors player directly transformed into his old teammate Dream Green. Dream Chasing is the initiator of the offense for the Warriors and the central axis of pass-and-cut coordination. At the same time, he is also the Warriors' "white glove", doing the dirty work that many people despise, and Bell in this game is no exception.
replaced Waters, and Bell became the leader of the second team in this game. He lived up to expectations and handed over a report card of 6 points, 9 rebounds, 10 assists, 6 steals and 1 block. With his name covered, I really thought he was chasing a dream. Green put on the Guangdong team's No. 5 jersey and went on to play. Not only did he have a strong presence on both offense and defense during the game, but Bell was also a true successor to Dream Green off the court - he actually staged an "eavesdropping situation" and eavesdropped on the Liaoning team's tactical arrangements in public. Regardless of whether Bell really understood it or not, Zhao Jiwei was provoked by him anyway. Jiwei didn't hold back and pushed Bell. The two of them each received a technical foul. Bell is only the team's third foreign aid, and this kind of exchange is exactly what he hopes to see. He is indeed good at playing tricks on people's mentality.
Not only that, after the game, Jordan Bell, who "got a bargain but behaved well", also came out to the fans in the Liaoning home stands before returning to the locker room. The home fans were so angry that they couldn't help but throw bottles at him. Although the behavior of the home fans is open to question, Bell's move is indeed quite disturbing. Killing people and killing people is really like living a dream.
These frictions and disturbances in this game have given more meaning to the already much-anticipated Liao-Guangdong war. Who will have the last laugh next? Which side do you prefer to advance to the finals?
