Xinjiang Flying Tigers - Al Riyadi (LB)

Both teams lead the group B with the same numbers (3-0), so this is the match for the first place in the group. Another thing is that the rivals in the other group are initially much weaker, so, in principle, the veins can not be torn. Speech about the Chinese, of course, Andre Blatch did not play a single game, and one of the leaders of the national team Lee Gen - only 1 match of 3. The new coach (latvian Igors Miglinics) is experimenting and stable in this Xinjiang for today (at this tournament) only one thing - confident game of Darius Adams (24.3 points + 4.7 rebounds + 5 assists for 3 matches on average). No, the team is good (especially since they defend the title this year at this tournament), but too many experiments. On the weakest rivals like ONGK and Al Ahli enough, but with Dacin there were problems (a victory of only 6 points).
Al-Riyadh is in perfect order, as befits a team with two strong imports and three leaders not the weakest Lebanese national team. Had no problems in any match here and beat same Dacin in 18 points.
Last year, they lost here to Xinjiang, so they will be particularly motivated for a rematch. I don;t see much motivation for Xinjiang yet. Apparently they keep their forces on the playoffs.
