On May 12, Beijing time, in the third game of the CBA quarterfinals, Beijing Beikong defeated Guangdong Dongguan 88-73 at home, winning the series 2-1 to advance to the semifinals against Shanghai.
Guo Allen and Ding Yanyuhang served as guest commentators for the game. In the final moments of the fourth quarter, with the outcome already decided, Guo commented, “Coach Du is now an old hand. Whether winning or losing, he remains calm and composed, his face never changing, his heart never racing.”
This series saw Guangdong complete a miraculous buzzer-beater at home to force a decisive third game. However, tonight they couldn’t match Beijing’s performance and were ultimately eliminated from the playoffs.
