BEIJING (CBA) - Bian Qiang buried four three-balls on his way to 24 points to lead Liaoning past Jiangsu 109-74 and into CBA Finals.
The victory sealed a 3-1 victory in the semi-final tie, putting Liaoning into the title showdown for the fourth time in their history while sending Jiangsu home at the semi-final stage for the third straight year.
Liaoning will now take on Guangdong in the best-of-seven finals, which tip off on February 13.
Bian says isn't surprised Liaoning have been playing so well this season because of their coach, Guo Shiqiang.
Bian told TITAN: "Every time you open Mr Guo's door, he's either studying the rivals by watching the video or sleeping, he has literally no other hobby."
Meanwhile, Liaoning's late-season signing Olumide Oyedeji paid dividends again.
He had 23 points and 10 rebounds while opposing giant center Tang Zhengdong finished with 21 and nine.
