Zhejiang Guangsha Lions by 7
Oh, pull up a chair, folks. We got ourselves a spicy one on the menu! The Zhejiang Guangsha Lions are about to clash horns against their adversaries, the Qingdao Eagles, in a Game 4 of a best-of-5 series showdown. The scene is set, and the tensions couldn't be higher!
The Lions are roaring into this match on the back of some stellar performances from their key players. Barry Brown, with his impressive playoff stat line of 30.5 points per game, is a force to be reckoned with. Minghui Sun, too, has been heating up the court, averaging 12.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per playoff game. We've also seen superb contributions from Jinqiu Hu, who's been dominant in the paint, scoring 14.0 points and snatching 6.0 rebounds per game.
But let's not discount those feisty Eagles. Quinndary Weatherspoon has been playing ball like he's angry at it. Averaging 25.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, and an impressive 9.8 assists per playoff game, he's definitely one to watch out for. Jordan Mickey is no second fiddle either, averaging 20.5 points and 6.5 rebounds a game. Let's not forget the young blood! Hansen Yang and Ruize Wang have been putting up laudable performances too.
In previous matchups, things have been heated. The last five games saw the Lions and Eagles each with wins and losses, making this a classic game of cat and mouse. However, recent history gives the Eagles a slight edge with the 33 points victory last game.
That said, don’t forget the rank order! The Lions are sitting proud at number one in the standings, which is nothing to sniff at, compared to the Eagles who're perched at number 8.
So here's the million-dollar question: who gets the win? Despite the recent Eagles' victory, I have to favor the Lions, thanks not only to their performances but also to their number 1 position in the standings. The Lions seem ready to bask in their dominance and take this one home, and no, I'm not lion about that.
