Xinhua News Agency, Urumqi, April 24 (reporter Ma Wei, Sun Zhe) the CBA finals will be held on the 26th. The regular season champion Guangdong men’s basketball will face Xinjiang men’s basketball at home. This is the fifth time in the history that the two teams met in the finals. In the face of Guangdong men’s basketball, which has many scores and strong impact, Xinjiang soldiers who are actively preparing for the war said one after another that the team is currently in unprecedented cohesion and morale, and is also prepared for Guangdong’s characteristics, the spirit of Xinjiang will be played in the final.
In the first half of the regular season, Adams of “Singles first” and frequently changed foreign aid made it difficult for Xinjiang to show the team strength, and the record continued to decline, which was even considered to be out of the playoffs. It was not until the champion’s coach, Adijiang, entered the master, that Xinjiang, which “found the soul”, gradually showed the strong advantage of the bench. Relying on team attack and iron defense, it eliminated Guangsha and Liaoning entered the finals one after another.
When talking about the changes in the second half of Xinjiang men’s basketball, head coach Adijiang said: “It is said that the Xinjiang team has thickness, but the team does not form cohesion and cannot show the team’s combat ability. It is a talk on paper. Fortunately, in the later stage, especially in the last few games, the team showed the team’s combat ability, especially in defense, which achieved the effect I hoped to see in defense.”
In the playoffs, Xinjiang replaced Adams with Feld, who was good at organizing attacks in men’s basketball. However, many outside players such as lanbai, aludu salad Wood and Zeng Lingxu were better released. On the defensive side, the oppression defense linked inside and outside Xinjiang also brought great pressure to the opponents. In the last two games of the semi-finals, they continuously refreshed the season scores of the defending champion Liaoning.
The captain of Xinjiang men’s basketball Ke lanbai Ke said that this was due to the change of the overall atmosphere of the team. “after a leader led the team, the discipline of the team was more strict. We also did as required, and our personal professionalism improved, the execution of the team is also stronger”, “the morale of the team is very high now, the atmosphere is super good, everyone is like a family, we will keep a steady attitude to fight every game”.
Guangdong men’s basketball this season can be described as full of momentum. It not only led the regular season with a record of 42 wins and 4 losses, but also swept through Jiangsu and Shenzhen in the first two rounds of the playoffs. Ke lanbai Ke said: “Guangdong’s staffing and finals experience far exceed us. Although they are very strong, if we want to take a victory from us, we will also let them drop a layer of skin first.”
Since entering the playoffs, the young general aludu salad Wood Court has averaged 21.2 points and 8.4 rebounds, which is one of the indispensable fighting forces of the team. For the upcoming finals, he said: “The playoffs are a real Xinjiang team. According to the level and strength of the playoffs, we can reach the finals. I hope that I will keep the good state of the playoffs and help the team more at both ends of attack and defense.”
Except for the strong strength of domestic players, Xinjiang and Guangdong are holding 3 foreign aid. Although Adams in Xinjiang and Beasley in Guangdong are not listed in the list, they are all in the preparation of the team, as long as the war needs, the two teams can adjust foreign aid at any time. How foreign aid plays and whether it will change foreign aid is also considered by the outside world as one of the important factors that determine the outcome of the finals.
Adijiang, who held the “foreign aid card” for the first time in his coaching career, said that the use of players was only based on their ability and characteristics, “while the Xinjiang team relied on foreign aid, we should also play the role of local athletes. Foreign aid should also be integrated into the team, become brothers, and invest in the competition.”
After 36 years, I returned to my hometown team and led the team to the long-lost finals. Adijiang said that although Guangdong team was the strongest team this season, “but it entered the finals, we need to show the team’s energy and look forward to the finals-level competition for everyone.”
