SHENYANG, China - Defending champions the Liaoning Flying Leopards crushed the Zhejiang Golden Bulls 106-70 in Game 4 of the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) Finals here on Monday, winning the series with a 4-0 clean sweep to lift the team's third CBA trophy.
Liaoning's point guard Zhao Jiwei was awarded the Finals Most Valuable Player (FMVP).
Surrounded by a cheering of around 10,000 fans in Liaoning's recognizable green shirts, the Flying Leopards showed a great drive to win, starting the game with high pressure in defence and keeping the attitude until the end of the game. Kyle Fogg again became the key player as he scored 17 points and made five steals only in 17 minutes.
Liaoning's iconic shooting guard Guo Ailun, who was absent from the first two games and only played three minutes in Game 3, scored 24 points in his 26 minutes appearance tonight. Zhao Jiwei took 17 points and Zhang Zhenlin added 19 including three powerful dunks.
The Zhejiang side, who had young tower center Yu Jiahao and Nicholas Rakocevic as starters, dominated offensive rebounds and kept drawing fouls in the paint in the first couple of minutes. However, the team was stuck with 27 turnovers by the end of the third quarter, resulting in a depressed third quarter, only scoring eight points.
