69:81

At the end of the third quarter, although the Shanghai Sharks basketball team was still 12 points behind the Guangdong Foshan Dragon and Lions basketball team, the Shanghai team also successfully retained the suspense of the game until the fourth quarter.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Foshan made personnel changes, and it was clear that they wanted to win their first win of the season at home.

American Gerald. Green came on the court, replacing Syrian Michelle Madanli, who scored 30 points in the third quarter, and formed a "one high and one fast" combination with Marcus Dohit, another foreign center on the court.

The coach's intention of the Foshan team is very clear, to strengthen the defense and improve the attacking power of the attack.

Because in the third quarter, hesitating tall and strong close defense, Michelle Mardanli's shooting rate dropped rapidly, and Michelle Mardanli's physical fitness also had problems, and he was frequently broken through to the inside line to create chaos, so the head coach of the Foshan team decisively replaced the team's other foreign aid - Gerrard. Green.

Gerald Green, 2.03 meters tall and weighing 91 kilograms, was selected by the Boston Celtics with the 18th pick in the first round in 2005. Since then, he has traveled to many teams such as the Timberwolves, Rockets, and Mavericks. In five seasons in the NBA, Green played in 181 games, averaging 7.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 16 minutes per game.

Sure enough, Gerard Green showed his aggression as soon as he got on the pitch.

"Slap", after receiving the ball, Gerald Green began to play the inside line, leaning back on Zhai Yi and starting to play singles, continuously squeezing inward.

Zhai Yi obviously didn't expect Gerald Green's offense to be so fierce, and he was caught off guard by Gerald Green's squeezing a few steps back.

At this time, Gerard Green suddenly, a turn and hook his hand.

With a "brush", the basketball accurately passed through the net, and Gerald Green took the lead as soon as he got on the court and scored first.

In the next attack, Shanghai team's foreign aid Renne Kelly missed the shot.

Gerald Green showed off his prowess as the NBA's "dunk king" under the basket, leaping high in the crowd to grab a backcourt rebound.

"Fast Attack" Foshan team defender Zeng Lingxu yelled loudly after receiving a pass from his teammates, and quickly rushed forward with the ball.

The Foshan team's counterattack was fast, but the Shanghai team's retreat was also in place.

"Smack", Zeng Lingxu chose to pass the ball to Gerard Green.

After receiving the ball, Gerald Green immediately cut diagonally from the paint area at a 45-degree angle to the basket at high speed, and faced Zhai Yi, who was defending him head-on, made a strong layup.

"Drink" Zhai Yi yelled, and without flinching, he blocked Gerard Green's breakthrough path.

With a "Peng", the two collided with each other, Zhai Yi was knocked back a big step, and Gerald Green calmly shot in the process of retreating with the help of impact.

"Brushing" the basketball stumbling into the net.

At the same time as Gerard Green scored, the referee's whistle sounded in time, "defensive foul".

"What? He took the initiative to hit me, are you blind? Zhai Yi suddenly yelled at the referee angrily.

The referee glanced at Zhai Yi coldly, and was about to blow the whistle again.

"Don't say it, it's okay, he's a little excited," at this time, Gao Dazhuang rushed up from behind and hugged Zhai Yi and said with a smile at the referee.

After the "Shanghai team requested substitution" was beaten twice in a row by the Foshan team, the Shanghai team also made personnel adjustments.

Zhai Yi down, Harris up.

When he got off the field, Zhai Yi also glanced at Coach Panagio tremblingly, but at this time, Coach Panagio's focus was obviously on the court, and Zhai Yi had to sit silently on the chair at the edge of the rest area.

In this substitution, the Shanghai team replaced a big forward, but replaced a swing man, and the Shanghai team made a targeted sacrifice of a small lineup.

Outside player Renne Kelly mentioned the No. 4 position, while another outside hitter, Harris, played as a small forward.

Usually, the Shanghai team has also practiced this "small lineup" in training, and the only difference is that the tall and strong are not in the scheduled plan of this lineup.

"Brushed" Gerard Green added a free throw, and the score was stretched to 17 points, and the situation of the Shanghai team was out of control again.

Shanghai team attack.

As soon as Harris came on the court, he singled out the opposing small forward He Ben, but Harris's tough back-to-back single missed.

"When" the ball bounced out of the basket, but fortunately, the Shanghai team's foreign player Rene Kelly knocked the ball out in a scuffle.

Liu Wei, the captain of the Shanghai team on the periphery of the "snap", grabbed the basketball and raised his hand to shoot the basket, but Zeng Lingxu of the Foshan team immediately yelled and pounced.

Liu Wei suddenly put the ball away, and threw the ball with both hands to the tall and strong hands standing on the other side of the three-point line.

The tall and strong man in the empty space of the "good ball" even has time to adjust a little and then calmly shoot three-pointers.

The "brush" ball went into the net in response, and Gao Dazhuang hit a 3-point again.

However, American Marcus Dosit immediately poured cold water on the Shanghai team.

With a "clang", Foshan foreign aid Marcus Dohit forcibly squeezed away Shanghai team center Zhang Zhaoxu under the basket and forced a dunk to win.

The audience at the scene also boiled again with this dunk, and the morale of the home team suddenly soared.

Time is running out, and the Shanghai team must seize the time to attack.

The "snap" ball passed to Gao Dazhuang's hands, and it was Zeng Lingxu, the former core of Tsinghua University, who was staring at Gao Dazhuang at this time.

Although Gao Dazhuang is still a "rookie", after the baptism of three CBA games, Gao Dazhuang's confidence has also exploded.

Facing Zeng Lingxu, who is not a domestic player, he is tall and strong with an ultra-low continuous dribble under his crotch, looking for an opportunity to break through.

Looking at the tall and strong and skillful dribbling skills, Zeng Lingxu frowned, and he didn't dare to make a rash steal.

Suddenly, the tall and strong shoulders sank, the ball slammed into the ground, without any feints, the tall and strong broke out instantly, and directly forced Zeng Lingxu's block with absolute speed and strength.

After breaking through, Gao Dazhuang hit the basket directly, facing Marcus Dohit who was sitting under the basket, Gao Dazhuang jumped up and made a layup without avoidance, but after Marcus Dohit's attention was completely attracted, he passed the ball to Zhang Zhaoxu, who cut to the basket.

"Drink" Zhang Zhaoxu yelled, smashing his anger into the basket of the Foshan team along with the basket.

After the goal of "pass well", Zhang Zhaoxu swept away the decline, gave a thumbs up and shouted at Gao Dazhuang.

Then the offense and defense of the two sides are more intense, at this time tall and strong is not like a rookie at all, calm, impactful and overall view, tall and strong has become an important part of the Shanghai team's offense on the field, after assisting captain Liu Wei with a goal, the Shanghai team pulled the score to within 10 points.

"Ha" Zhang Zhaoxu shouted and slapped off the opponent's foreign aid Gerrard. Green's strong offense under the basket.

After "counterattacking" Liu Wei grabbed the basketball, he immediately passed the ball to the tall and strong hands who reacted the fastest and immediately sprinted forward.

Tall and strong dribbling the ball at high speed, he flashed the tall Foshan team center Marcus Dohit in a continuous direction, followed by an emergency stop and then suddenly accelerated, flashed the Foshan team small forward He Ben, and went straight to the basket.

Facing Zeng Lingxu, the CUBA senior who was the last line of defense under the basket, the tall and strong jumped high with the ball in one hand, pulled the rod in the air, tucked in the abdomen, slid past Zeng Lingxu's block, and changed hands to the layup.
