Annoying! Liaoning's 4-time Champion Forward Season Over, Yang Ming Loses a Major Asset, Championship Defense Difficult It's disheartening! Liaoning Men's Basketball Team has suffered another severe blow from injuries - small forward Cong Mingchen, who helped the team win four CBA championships, will not return to the court due to injury. This news undoubtedly brought great regret and pity to the coaching staff, teammates, and fans of Liaoning Men's Basketball Team. Without Cong Mingchen, Yang Ming is like losing a major asset. Cong Mingchen, who plays an important role in Liaoning Men's Basketball Team as a small forward, is known for his excellent shooting ability and keen sense on the court. In the past few seasons, he has repeatedly stepped up in critical moments, securing victories for the team with precise three-point shots. His presence not only enriched Liaoning Men's Basketball Team's offensive methods but also greatly encouraged the team on a spiritual level. However, injuries mercilessly took away his opportunity to continue playing for the team this season. For Yang Ming, head coach of Liaoning Men's Basketball Team, Cong Mingchen's absence is undoubtedly a heavy blow. As one of the core coaches of the team, Yang Ming fully understands the importance and irreplaceability of Cong Mingchen in the team. His absence means that Liaoning Men's Basketball Team will lose an important scoring point on the offensive end and face greater pressure on the defensive end. Yang Ming needs to quickly adjust the tactical system, find new offensive points and defensive strategies to cope with the challenges brought by Cong…

Last night's CBA regular season game saw Guangdong defeat Fujian 116-92 away from home, delighting Guangdong fans with an impressive display of three-point shooting. The team shot 19 out of 30 three-pointers, achieving a success rate of over 60%. Players like Huang Rongqi, Zhang Wenyi, and Bazley were on fire, contributing to the team's best single-game three-point performance this season. This allowed Xu Jie to rest more, as Fujian could only hold on for three quarters before surrendering, turning the fourth quarter into a training session for Guangdong. Guangdong won the game relatively easily, and after the match, Du Feng was very satisfied with his team's performance. Following the victory over Fujian, Guangdong received three significant pieces of news. First, their ranking has become more stable; currently, they are on an eight-game winning streak, sitting at eighth in the standings. They are just one point behind fourth-placed Qingdao, with a good chance of finishing in the top four by the end of the second stage. Du Feng also expressed his hope that the team can maintain this winning streak until the end of the second stage. The second piece of news is that Xu Jie's injury is not serious. In the previous game against Guangzhou Long Lions, Xu Jie scored a difficult 2+1 layup over Guo Ailun in the fourth quarter but unfortunately sprained his wrist upon landing. Due to the large deficit Guangdong faced in the first half, Xu Jie had to switch to personal attack mode and did not get much rest, playing for 45 minutes and aggravating…

Why is it that in today's CBA news, the excitement of the games seems to be overshadowed by various dramatic events off the court? From star player Zhou Qi's emotional outbursts on the court to referees once again becoming the focus of conflict, from the frequent changes in foreign players to the internal management crisis of Beijing Shougang, a series of issues that appear independent are actually like dominoes, reflecting the growing pains that the CBA cannot avoid in its journey towards professionalization. Is this a problem with the players or the league? It's worth our careful consideration. Zhou Qi has once again become the center of public opinion. In a crucial game for Qingdao Men's Basketball, he was ejected from the game after receiving technical fouls for his dissatisfaction with the referee's decision. This incident quickly sparked heated discussions, and there were even reports that he would likely face an additional suspension. However, this is not the first time Zhou Qi has become the center of controversy due to emotional outbursts. As early as the 2021 playoffs, he was fined for questioning the referee's decision on the court, leading people to jokingly say, "Zhou Qi's performance and temperament are always equally unpredictable." There is no denying that Zhou Qi is undoubtedly a top player in the CBA. At the center position, he has led his team to victory multiple times with his height and basketball IQ, and is even the "pillar" of the national team. However, his emotional management issues are like a scar that keeps recurring. Whether it's…

This victory not only marked a resounding win but also extended Guangdong team's winning streak to eight consecutive victories, setting a new record for the longest winning streak this season. With a record of 21 wins and 11 losses, Guangdong team has solidified its position within the top eight teams in the CBA standings. During the game, Guangdong team did not show any discomfort from playing away from home, securing a 16-point lead by halftime. In the second half, Guangdong team further extended their lead to over 20 points after a series of successful offensive plays, gradually eliminating any suspense regarding the outcome of the match. Ultimately, Guangdong team did not give their opponents any chance, sealing the victory with a commanding 24-point advantage. What were the reasons behind Guangdong team's easy and decisive victory? Former CBA head coach Liu Tie provided his analysis and insights after the game, highlighting five key factors contributing to Guangdong team's success. Firstly, Guangdong team had a clear advantage in the paint, with Liu Tie noting that the presence of center Morland gave them a significant edge in the interior. Looking at the rebound statistics, Guangdong team had a massive advantage, winning 19 more rebounds than Fujian team with a total of 43 rebounds. Secondly, Guangdong team had an exceptionally high three-point shooting percentage. Throughout the game, they attempted 30 three-pointers and made 19,…

As the Spring Festival approaches, the second phase of the CBA is also coming to a close. On January 19th, Beijing time, the 32nd round of the CBA regular season concluded with the last three matches. This night saw three major defeats, with Guangdong, Guangsha, and Xinjiang, all top-eight teams, facing relatively weaker opponents. All three teams easily achieved big victories, inflicting crushing defeats on their opponents. Guangsha maintained its undefeated home record, Guangdong secured an eight-game winning streak, and although Xinjiang only had two consecutive wins, their gains were no less than those of Guangsha and Guangdong. This was due to the return of Zhao Rui and Abudu, as well as the successful transformation of Peterson, giving Liu Wei a new backbone and eliminating the fear of being overturned in the fourth quarter. Xinjiang, sitting at home, defeated Guangzhou Longshi by a margin of 19 points, securing their 16th home victory of the season while sending Guangzhou Longshi to a four-game losing streak. In this match, Guo Ailun continued to play, but his offensive touch was still recovering, scoring only 6 points with 8 assists from 11 shots. In contrast, Zhao Rui unleashed his full firepower, hitting 5 three-pointers. It's worth noting that Zhao Rui's main scoring came in the second half, especially in the fourth quarter. Guangzhou could still give Guangdong a hard time in the previous round, but they lost more decisively in this game. Except for the first quarter when they could still pose some trouble to Xinjiang, they couldn't stir up much trouble in the…

In the past, people were deeply disgusted by Stephon Marbury's leg-lifting actions that injured others. His leg-lifting actions brought three championships to the Beijing team, but they also harmed many CBA players. Guangdong team's foreign aid Xiao Bu experienced the power of the leg lift and almost got crippled by Marbury. Later, Han Dejun and many others suffered from his infamous black leg. Due to widespread public outrage, the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) issued a statement recognizing "Marbury's Leg Lift" as a foul action, and this harmful action disappeared for a period of time. However, in recent years, the "Marbury's Leg Lift" has resurfaced. The main representatives are now Joseph Young of the Fujian team and OJ Mayo of the Liaoning team. Mayo mainly lifts his leg to kick people during jump shots and engages in other unsportsmanlike conduct. On the other hand, Joseph Young has more injurious actions than Mayo. He not only kicks people during jump shots but also lifts his leg to kick during layups in the style of Marbury, and he frequently uses his elbow to hit others. The harm and severity of his actions are much worse than Mayo's. Joseph Young first played for the Tongxi team in Nanjing for two seasons before joining Beikong. His leg-lifting actions were recognized and guided by the originator Marbury, making them even more refined. Many CBA teams have been victims of his actions. On January 16, 2020, during a game between the Tongxi team and the Liaoning team, Joseph Young kicked Zhao Jiwei in the abdomen while breaking…

This season, the Liaoning team has lost 10 games so far, and the regular season has only played 32 rounds. This result should be the worst in the past three or four seasons. Not only were they defeated by strong teams such as Beijing, Shanxi, Guangsha, and Qingdao at home and away, but they also struggled against weak teams like Fujian and Ningbo, and even when they won, it was a hard-fought victory. Of course, this is related to the injuries of the main players, their older age, and the replacement of foreign players, but these are not the main reasons; the problem lies with head coach Yang Ming. If we say that there was an excuse for losing without a big foreign player and the pure water cargo Ture during that time, but currently, the Liaoning team has assembled four foreign players, and only Zhang Zhenlin is missing from the main players, yet they are still struggling so much. Who is responsible for this? That person is undoubtedly head coach Yang Ming. Why do I say this? There are three reasons. First, over-reliance on veterans and key players. Yang Ming's use of players is too rigid, excessively relying on several veterans and key moments on Fugge. In Yang Ming's eyes, he only trusts Han Dejun, Li Xiaoxu, Fugge, and Zhao Jiwei. Actually, believing in these veteran players is not a problem, but they cannot be overused and relied upon. Letting the 37-year-old veteran Han Dejun play more than 30 minutes per game and allowing the 34-year-old Fugge to almost…
