Shandong Beats Foshan 93-79 In CBA Opener

Gerald Green scored 18 points on 6-15 shooting in the CBA’s season opener, but his team, Foshan, lost big to Shandong.  Green’s 18 points matched former Charlotte Bobcat Alan Anderson of Shandong for game-high honors, but he didn’t shoot particularly well and he turned the ball over four times.  Turnovers and failure to rebound the ball appears to be what killed Foshan… they coughed it up 21 times while giving up 22 offensive boards; certainly a losing combination.  Shandong’s second former NBA player, Othello Hunter, was the main man responsible for the work on the offensive glass… 10 of his 11 rebounds came on the offensive side of the floor.  Hunter also had 11 points to make it a double-double, although he only shot 4-12.  I actually tracked down some highlights from this game, but the goddamn website won’t let me stream them in my region.  China, do you want your basketball league to recieve attention or not?  Anyway, based on the recap...
