In an interview with reporters after the game, the assistant coach of the Beijing team, Jorio Grigioli, said: "We have won a very precious victory! The significant reason is that the Shandong team shot in the first half. Scored a lot of difficult goals and established a lead. We made too many mistakes on the offensive end, allowing our opponents to easily switch points. Although we did not enter the game very quickly in the second half, the players' attention was focused on the game. This is very important. At the same time, on the defensive end, everyone’s hard work has also been strengthened, and the defense against Shandong's three-point shots has been more in place. The offensive end has also performed well. Even if 14 free throws have been missed, they can still score 102 points. _P1p

The first three quarters and the first half of the fourth quarter played well. At the critical moment, the opponent scored too many points. Zhai Xiaochuan scored consecutively. , Our offense is relatively simple, basically it is to play the pick and roll inside, Gao Shiyan or Hudson shot, the offense is not patient enough. Especially in the last three or four minutes, everyone still lacks experience in handling the ball and simply lost the game."
