Zhejiang Golden Bulls by 7
Lights, camera, inaction! It's time to talk about the nail-biting (for some of you) matchup between the Zhejiang Golden Bulls and the Beijing Royal Fighters. A real clash of titans, if you consider ranking #9 and #11 in the CBA as 'titanic'.
Two teams that both have ‘colorful’ names, how charming.
Let's stroll down memory lane first. In their three previous meetups, the Golden Bulls have been all bull and no bull...well - - they've won, let's put it that way. Scoreboard read in their favor three times in a row, with the last victory a whopping 41 points. Now if that doesn't warm the cockles of a bettor's heart, I don't know what does.
Looking at their recent results, the Golden Bulls had a tug of war-ish performance, winning two out of five, if we're being optimistic. Meanwhile, excuse me while I yawn, the Royal Fighters have had an ‘almost’ royal performance, winning four out of five. A round of polite applause, please!
As for their regular season records, the Golden Bulls come out on top with a 23-12 win-loss record, while our royal friends are a teensy bit behind at 19-15. To sum it all up and slap a bow on it, the Golden Bulls rank two spots higher than the Royal Fighters in the CBA standings.
Now, my dear listeners, if I were to venture a guess and deprive you of some suspense, I'd put my imaginary money on the Zhejiang Golden Bulls.
