Recently, in a match against Qingdao, Liaoning Men's Basketball Team suffered a heartbreaking reversal - victory seemed within reach, but they collapsed in the last three minutes, making continuous mistakes and unable to seize the critical moments. The regret of this game is not just a single defeat, but it also exposed the hidden dangers that Liaoning Men's Basketball Team has always faced: psychological fragility and lack of depth in personnel. All of this became even more serious after the news broke that Zhang Zhenlin would be out for the season. The team's front line was already stretched thin, and now without Zhang Zhenlin, a core player, Liaoning Men's Basketball Team finds itself in an even deeper predicament. So, facing injuries and pressure, can Liaoning Men's Basketball Team still overcome difficulties and return to its peak? Zhang Zhenlin, as the core of Liaoning Men's Basketball Team's front line, has shown great potential in the past seasons. Since the 2021-2022 season, Zhang Zhenlin has become an important member of the team, and at times he has been seen as the hope for the team's future. Especially in the series against Guangdong Men's Basketball Team, he used a brilliant performance of 25 points to completely break the prejudice against him as "young," proving his explosive power and growth potential in critical moments. At that time, Zhang Zhenlin was undoubtedly the "pillar" of the team's front line. However, with his current injury, he leaves the team not only with regret but also with a huge void. The past highlights seem to have become…

In the 33rd round of the CBA regular season, the defending champion Liaoning team lost a crucial positioning battle to the Zhejiang team with a score of 88-101 on the road. After Liaoning's loss, the landscape of the CBA may also change due to this key positioning battle. After Liaoning's defeat, Guangdong is only one win away from Liaoning, which means that Guangdong has a good chance to catch up and return to the top four of the standings. Therefore, this battle between Zhejiang and Liaoning could be the most critical game of the CBA season, and their victory or defeat could directly affect the playoff trend. Let's talk about the game between Liaoning and Zhejiang. Looking at the game trends, both teams played well in half a game. Liaoning was in good form in the first half, suppressing Zhejiang. If it weren't for York's big explosion in the second quarter, hitting six three-pointers and scoring 23 points in a single quarter, Zhejiang would have been left behind early. In the second half, Zhejiang gradually found its rhythm and made a beautiful comeback in the third quarter, winning by double digits. With stable play in the second half, Zhejiang eventually won by 13 points at home, winning this crucial positioning battle. It can be said that Zhejiang won big in this battle. Why is this game so important? This has to do with the two teams' records. Before the game, Liaoning had 22 wins and 10 losses, ranking fourth in the standings, while Zhejiang had 21 wins and 11 losses,…

CBA League: The Reasons Behind Liaoning Men's Basketball's Crushing Defeat to Zhejiang Chouzhou, A Plot Too Unbelievable for Fiction The reasons behind Liaoning Men's Basketball's crushing defeat to Zhejiang Chouzhou in the CBA league are so unbelievable that even a novel wouldn't dare to write them. Netizens have pointed out incisively that the championship core left by Guo Shiqiang has either left or aged, and Yang Ming only knows how to reveal his dagger when the map is exhausted, which is nothing. Liaoning can no longer compete at a high level, and after the peak comes the trough, they need to slowly adapt! Stop thinking about the championship title, everyone should be pragmatic and wake up! What else does Liaoning have that is invincible in the fourth quarter? As long as Fredette doesn't have his touch in the fourth quarter, Liaoning has no chance at all, and there isn't a single domestic player who can stand out. Wang Lanyin plays without using his brain, dribbling with his head down, either losing the ball or making a bad pass. Zhao Jiwei's continuous mistakes are the main reason for the failure. If we were to give Zhao Jiwei a score out of 10, giving him one point would already be too much, he played terribly. Zhao Jiwei, after returning from injury, seems to have forgotten how to play basketball, making frequent mistakes and bricks. I hope it's just the injury affecting him. The aftermath of trading Guo Ailun has arrived, morale is scattered, and no matter how hard the players try, they…

This is the angry outcry of countless CBA fans when the Beijing men's basketball season just started. A long-awaited dream of "genius and strength coexisting" in basketball was brutally shattered by a "glass man" who gets injured easily. Can you imagine a top-paid player who can rest for three months with a sprained ankle and lie at home for half a month with a minor cold? This is not a myth; it is the reality of the Beijing Shougang Basketball Club. Zhou Qi, once a name that made countless people's blood boil, known as the "Great Demon King," has become the team's "time bomb." Fans say he "plays like he's strolling on the court," and they describe him as "soft on offense and lax on defense." What's most frustrating is that he "plays games" on the court and enjoys roast duck and tanghulu after the game without any reflection. And those who paid a large sum for his signing fee, the Beijing men's basketball team, are just like the old saying: "Good intentions don't get rewarded, and being hasty doesn't allow one to eat hot tofu." They thought that signing Zhou Qi would quickly break through the team's bottleneck, and the championship dream within reach now seems to have turned into bubbles. Incident Process: From Top-Paid Signing to Disappointment and Frustration The story begins with Zhou Qi's signing. Beijing Shougang spent top-tier contracts to bring in Zhou Qi, hoping he could lead the team to challenge for the championship. His performance and potential in the CBA were undoubtedly impressive, especially…

In the CBA transfer market, recent events have been nothing short of dramatic. With Beijing Shougang Men's Basketball successfully signing guard Lonnie Walker, who previously played for the NBA's Boston Celtics, this coveted scorer has now become a prized asset for the Beijing team. Lonnie Walker's arrival is not just a player transfer but also a testament to courage and determination. The executives at Beijing Shougang clearly attach great importance to this signing, with rumors suggesting they spent a significant amount of money, demonstrating their eagerness to contend for the championship in the new season. In Lonnie Walker, we see a guard with exceptional scoring ability. His ball-handling skills and versatile offensive repertoire are reminiscent of top NBA players. Imagine the excitement of watching Walker weave through the backcourt and nail precise shots in the upcoming season! His addition undoubtedly expands Beijing Shougang's offensive options, significantly enhancing the team's competitiveness. Coach Xu Limin has openly stated that the team's goal is to challenge for the championship, and Lonnie's arrival is a crucial step towards achieving that goal. Meanwhile, Guangdong Hongyuan Men's Basketball unfortunately missed out on securing this scoring powerhouse. General Manager Zhu Fangyu appeared indecisive during contract negotiations with Walker, ultimately failing to reach an agreement, leaving fans of the team disappointed. Some even jokingly suggest that Guangdong Hongyuan should gift Zhu Fangyu a "signing artifact" to prevent future misses of quality players. Despite missing out on Lonnie Walker, Guangdong remains undeterred, actively seeking other suitable small forwards, particularly looking to find someone capable of replacing Barton's role to…

The CBA regular season saw four matchups last night. With Shandong's easy victory over Jiangsu, Beikong's win against Shenzhen, Zhejiang's triumph over Liaoning, and Tianjin's narrow win over Ningbo, the CBA rankings have changed once again overnight. Shandong has risen strongly to second place, Zhejiang has returned to the top four, Liaoning has been pushed down to fifth, and Guangdong, with one less game played, has a record almost equal to Liaoning's. The competition for the top four and eight spots is becoming increasingly fierce. Let's take a look at the following: Shandong's ranking rises to second Last night, Shandong hosted Jiangsu at home. Chris continued to rest for this game. Shandong led by a slight advantage of 50-44 in the first half. In the second half, Shandong still controlled the game, and Jiangsu's multiple counterattacks were unsuccessful. Ultimately, Shandong won comfortably with a score of 102-86. In this game, Gao Shiyuan's shooting hand warmed up. He played for 41 minutes, made 6 out of 12 shots, including 3 out of 4 three-pointers, scoring 22 points, grabbing 5 rebounds, assisting 6 times, and making 5 steals. Moore scored 30 points, grabbed 5 rebounds, and assisted 6 times. Kumajie had 15 points and 12 rebounds, while Guo Kai had 13 points and 10 rebounds. The three foreign players from Jiangsu combined for 67 points and 14 rebounds, but unfortunately, none of the local players scored in double digits. After this battle, Shandong's record came to 23 wins and 10 losses, jumping from third to second the day before. However, Shanxi behind…

WCBA League A Group Round 24 has completed 4 games and there are 2 games yet to be played, while all 4 games of B Group Round 26 have been finished. The latest standings for both groups (A/B) of the WCBA have been generated. Sichuan's unbeaten streak of 23 consecutive victories has been broken, which aligns with the author's previous prediction that this team had the strongest potential for second place, as seen in the previous article "WCBA Latest Standings, Fujian's First Victory, Sichuan's Championship Unquestioned, Predicting This Team for Second Place." However, can Shanxi reclaim the championship title? In A Group Round 24, the match between Shanxi and Sichuan was the highlight of the round, with Shanxi currently ranked 2nd and Sichuan ranked 1st, making it a battle between two strong teams. At the end of the first quarter, Shanxi led by 2 points, and at halftime, Shanxi still maintained a 2-point lead. By the end of the third quarter, both teams were tied. In the early stages of the final quarter, Sichuan took the lead. However, following Zhang Mingzhu's successful 2-point shot and Kelsey Mitchell's 3-pointer, Shanxi took the lead and continued to maintain it, with Sichuan constantly trying to catch up. Elizabeth Cambage scored a 2-pointer, bringing Sichuan within 4 points, Chen Yujie made both free throws, and Li Meng made a passing error. Ultimately, Shanxi defeated Sichuan 81-75, ending Sichuan's streak of 23 consecutive victories. On the Shanxi side, Kelsey Mitchell scored the highest of the game with 24 points, along with 4 rebounds and 3…

On January 19th, Beijing time, the highlight of the CBA "Spring Festival Battle" kicked off first. The defending champion Liaoning men's basketball team fought hard for four quarters but ultimately lost to Zhejiang men's basketball team with a score of 88-101, suffering their 11th defeat of the season. So far this season, Liaoning's number of losses has set a new record over the past four seasons, causing concerns about their prospects for defending their title. It is worth noting that Liaoning recently faced top teams in the league ranking within the top six, such as Zhejiang, Qingdao, Guangsha, etc., with a poor record of 0 wins and 5 losses, and an astonishing "net loss" of 47 points. Many fans lamented that after Guo Ailun left, Liaoning didn't get much better, and it seems that winning this year's championship will be quite difficult! This season's Liaoning team is indeed very challenging, even described as "troubled both internally and externally." Internally, the team's soul, Guo Ailun, was traded, and Zhao Jiwei officially took the reins. However, Guo Ailun's departure did not allow Zhao Jiwei to spread his wings more freely. Affected by injuries, his personal offensive state plummeted instead. In addition to Zhao Jiwei's decline in competitive level, Zhang Zhenlin's long-term absence also greatly reduced Liaoning's offensive and defensive threats. Coupled with the further increase in age of Li Xiaoxu and Han Dejun, Liaoning's domestic lineup strength has hit rock bottom. Externally, the league has entered the era of four quarters and seven foreign players, with various clubs frantically engaging in a…

On January 19th, Beijing time, the 33rd round of the CBA regular season welcomed a focus match, with Liaoning men's basketball team challenging Zhejiang men's basketball team away. This was the second encounter of the season between the two teams. In the first match, Liaoning team defeated their opponents by an 11-point advantage. Tonight, playing away from home indeed brought greater pressure. Despite once leading by 12 points, Liaoning team eventually lost 88-101 to Zhejiang and was reversed by their opponents. Below is a summary of this game and the latest ranking of the points table. Tonight, Liaoning team's starting lineup was Zhao Jiwei, Fredette, Patton, Yu Zechen, and Li Xiaoxu. Zhejiang team's starting lineup was Lu Wenbo, Yu Jiaxiao, Wang Yibo, Jones, and York. In this game, Liaoning national player Fu Hao missed the game due to a cold, and Yu Zechen entered the starting list. Zhejiang team had their regular starting lineup, and before the game, Zhejiang team's foreign aid Simmons and Liu Zeyi returned. In the first quarter, after the opening, Liaoning team fell into a slump, with Zhao Jiwei making consecutive three turnovers and being replaced by Wang Lianqin. Li Xiaoxu's layup interference was overlooked by the referee. Subsequently, Fredette scored six points in a row, but Zhejiang team's multiple points bloomed with a wave of 14-6 to stop Liaoning. The game continued with Fredette leading the team to start catching up. With Weber coming off the bench, Liaoning team responded with an 8-0 run to stop Zhejiang. Subsequently, Liaoning team continued to catch up, and…

This season, after the implementation of the new foreign aid policy of four quarters and seven rotations in the CBA, the league landscape has changed dramatically. Zhejiang Guangsha, with its strong local lineup and super small foreign aid, has taken a commanding lead and stands alone in the first echelon of championship contenders. Shanxi, Shandong, Liaoning, Qingdao, Zhejiang, Xinjiang, and other teams are also in contention, with minimal differences in victories, making it possible for any team to fall behind or seize the initiative. The fundamental reason for this parity is that all these teams have good foreign players, but their domestic lineups, whether inside or outside, have flaws, making it difficult to distinguish between them. As a superpower in the CBA, Guangdong Hongyuan has also joined this melee, currently only one victory away from third-placed Shandong. This season, Guangdong Hongyuan lost Zhou Qi, Hu Mingxuan was out for a long time due to injury, and the management failed to find a suitable small foreign aid in time. These three factors led to Guangdong falling out of the top ten in the second stage, unable to even secure a playoff spot, let alone compete for the championship. However, under Xu Jie's efforts and the gradual integration of three foreign players into the team, forming a considerable combat capability, Guangdong Hongyuan's recent performance has been improving. After defeating Fujian Men's Basketball Team, they achieved an eight-game winning streak, pushing Beijing down and returning to the top eight in the league. During the eight-game winning streak, Guangdong's defensive efficiency ranked fourth in…
