My Prediction
Nanjing Monkey Kings by 17They say the history of basketball is written in the lines on the court, and from what we see of past matchups between Guangzhou Loong Lions and Nanjing Monkey Kings, it's a mixed bag. Guangzhou, while managing victory in their final 2023 battle [115-112], haven't seen any such glory this year, losing 110-122 to Nanjing back in October.
As players lace up for a nail-biting showdown tonight, some noteworthy gladiators to watch out for from the Guangzhou team are Tahjere McCall, he's been netting an average of 21 points per game last month. With such scores, he'll probably have opponents seeing stars. Another Lion you wouldn't want to face on the court is Davion Warren, throwing 18.5 points on average per game last month. Jiao Boqiao, a name that's getting quite popular among local fans, has averaged a respectable 21 points per game in the recent month. Seems like we have quite the gang of troublemakers here.
Nanjing Monkey Kings aren't just letting the steam out though. TJ Leaf has been in a league of his own, averaging an impressive 28 points per game with a whopping 15 rebounds in the last month. Another player who's been stealing the limelight is Jordan Floyd. Floyd has been showing some tricks up his sleeves and pitching in with 16 points on average per game. Lin Wei has also been consistent with an average of 16.5 points per game, helping the team stay afloat.
Drawing from regular season records, the Lions may need a few more claws in their paw with a bleak 6-13, while our Monkey Kings swing with a healthier 10-9. The Guangzhou Loong Lions haven’t had the best of times recently, ending up on the losing side more often than not. Conversely, Nanjing Monkey Kings have been playing hide-and-seek with victory, mixing wins and losses in their recent matches. When we sweep the floor with standings, Loong Lions are barely hanging onto branch #14, while Monkey Kings are nestled at #11.
All this basketball analysis is making me dizzy! I assure you dear listeners, I've made more sense of cryptic crossword puzzles. Now, drumroll please… it's prediction time!
