From three consecutive victories to five consecutive defeats, Beikong urgently needs to reposition
After a 92-112 loss to Tongxi in the CBA League on December 19, the Beikong Men’s Basketball Team’s record in the second phase changed from three consecutive victories to five consecutive defeats, although they were still 8 wins and 12 losses. The total score is ranked 12th in the league, barely on the edge of the playoffs, but the situation is already precarious. In the last five losing streak, in fact, the reason for the lack of overall strength is the fact that both internal and external aid are included. Looking at the outstanding performance of other teams, Beijing Controls must have a clear understanding that the team is only at the level of the middle of the league. , In order to achieve good results, we must make more arduous efforts.
Lack of the backbone of the backbone, no stable scoring points
At the beginning of the three-game winning streak in this stage, Beijing Controls really gave a new impression that the team’s hard training during the offseason was not in vain. Zhang Fan averaged 20+ points per game, the performance of the new aid Yu Changdong’s team, and Joseph Yang gradually recovered the feel and form of last season, all of which showed their hope of further improving their rankings.
However, the reality is cruel. The Beikong team all ended in defeat against the last five opponents. Among these five opponents, except for Liaoning, which is a championship-level team, the remaining four opponents are Jilin, Guangzhou, Fujian and Tongxi. , Beijing Controls are all possible to win in battle, but most of the front can stalemate with their opponents for three quarters, but when it comes to the final quarter, they lose the chain and regret defeat. On the whole, the lack of real core players who can pick up the lead and grab points at critical moments is the main reason for Beijing’s loss.
Yesterday, the loss against Tongxi was a special case. Facing a low-ranked opponent that has been defeated twice this season, Beijing Control seemed to underestimate the enemy. However, the opponent found the reason for the defeat through two losses. They took various “care” for the main players of the North Control in defense and restricted the offense of the North Control. At the same time, Tongxi has foreign aid Mort who is familiar with the old team. Here, he completely dominated the basket during the game, and the already weak North Control team was hit on both offense and defense.
Against the Guangzhou team, in the final 2 minutes of the decisive quarter, the opponent’s college player Guo Kai hit consecutive open long shots. The efforts of Beijing Enterprises in the first three quarters were ruined. When the Fujian team was at the bottom of the league, the North Control was still leading in the fourth quarter, but they did not keep an eye on the Fujian team’s re-appearing foreign aid Gordon, which made him score too easy. Facing the Jilin team, Beijing Controls also has the possibility of winning the game, and it was also at the last minute that the opponent was led by the powerful foreign aid Jones to spread the difference. These three games all exposed the problem that the Beijing Controls men’s basketball team couldn’t stand it at critical moments. There was no leader, no stable scoring points in the team, and no players with the ability to decide the game could not be found at the critical moment.
Two foreign players do not give strength
Speaking of key players, we must talk about the two foreign players in the North Control team. After Joseph Young came to Beijing Controls, it is impossible for the old horse to enjoy his tactics alone. What is needed is the improvement of the overall skills and tactics of the team. I hope he can better connect the team and score points when needed. It can be finalized when It now appears that Yang is still a long way from the expectations of Lao Ma and the fans.
Let’s talk about Harrison, who joined after the offseason. His characteristic is that he focuses on organization and his scoring ability is not very strong. As a defender, his outside shooting is inaccurate, and his rhythm is slow, and he can occasionally pass good shots. The help to the team is not significant. Not to mention the inadequacy of foreign recruitment, this has led to the fact that Beijing Enterprises is now weak inside, and Yu Changdong, Wang Shaojie and others are difficult to rotate and tired in every game.
In terms of domestic players, Zhang Fan’s increase is gratifying, and Yu Changdong has also improved, but they cannot be asked for more. With the reduction of playing time, Wang Zirui helped the team less and less. The main rotation players such as Hou Yifan, Sun Tonglin and Wang Shaojie were not stable enough, and Sun Yue’s injury also needed further recovery. In short, the Beijing Controls men’s basketball team is currently in a difficult period. At the same time, it must have a clear understanding of its own level and pay more than others on the court. Only by correcting its mentality can Beijing Enterprises get out of the predicament as soon as possible and achieve at least its goal of entering the playoffs for two consecutive years.Text/Reporter Liu Ailin
After the game
Marbury took the initiative
In the game on the 19th, Beijing Controls was in a catch-up position in the first quarter. In the second quarter, the state improved slightly, but by the third quarter, it seemed to be incapable of catching up. The last quarter has become garbage time. .
In the game, the performance of foreign aid Yang was quite sluggish, his shooting percentage was very low, and all of his five three-pointers were missed. In addition to scoring, Yang’s other main data such as assists and rebounds are also not good. In comparison, another guard, the foreign aid Harrison, performed well, scoring 20 points. He walked to the free throw line many times and caused many kills to the opponent.
The top scorer of the North Point team’s domestic players is defender Zhang Fan. He scored 24 points. But even so, he has always been good at three-pointers and his shooting rate from beyond the three-point line is not high. He took a total of 8 three-pointers. Only 2 hits.
After the game, North Control team coach Marbury took the initiative to take the responsibility. He said that the team’s loss was all his own responsibility.
Marbury commented on the team’s performance after the game. He said: “I am responsible for losing this game. We didn’t play well and didn’t play aggressively. As the head coach, the responsibility rests entirely with me. bear.”
A reporter asked Marbury that the opponent used zone defense many times to restrict the North Control team in this game, but the team didn’t have much to do about it. What happened to the North Control team at that time? Marbury said: “When we were fighting before, our opponents also had this kind of defense, but we obviously didn’t do a good job this time. The responsibility lies with me.”
Some reporters also asked that Beijing Enterprises seems to have less energy in this game. Why did this happen? Marbury replied: “Our recent schedule is very tight. During previous training, some of the main players were adjusted more and did not participate more in confrontation training.”
