Guangdong Hongyuan has welcomed two consecutive victories, and coach Du Feng has deployed an unexpected strategy to face the strongest Shandong men's basketball team. While Du Feng jokingly referred to Xu Jie as a "small foreign aid," it also reflects the less-than-satisfactory aspects of Guangdong Hongyuan's foreign aid introduction strategy. However, it would be unfair to declare it a complete failure, as there are still two foreign aids, Jilunwater and Morland, to rely on. As for Lais, his departure is a foregone conclusion, and whether he can make it into the 12-man roster in the future remains uncertain. Next, Guangdong Hongyuan will play at home against the Shandong men's basketball team, which is in excellent form. Coach Du Feng intends to use a surprise move by arranging Jilunwater and Beizeli to play together, aiming to launch quick counterattacks with their speed advantage. On the other hand, Shandong men's basketball team will undoubtedly rely on Chris as the key player in the game, but he must remain calm at all times, be wary of the opponent's defensive strategies, and avoid emotional outbursts. This match will be broadcast live on CCTV5. One of the major challenges currently facing Guangdong Hongyuan is the redundancy of personnel in the frontcourt. Jilunwater has become the team's top foreign aid, followed closely by Morland, while Beizeli, Wang Shaojie, Du Runwang, and Ren Junfei all possess the ability to play in the frontcourt. However, the backcourt seems to be in short supply, with Xu Jie almost having to play the entire game, and Huang Rongqi, although in…

On January 4th, the CBA regular season is in full swing. The situation of Liaoning team is highly concerned by the outside world. The team has recently performed averagely and slipped out of the top four in the standings. The main reasons for Liaoning's situation are two-fold: foreign players and injuries. Especially in terms of foreign players, Liaoning has been changing players constantly this season, having previously signed a new big foreign player, Patton. Not long ago, Liaoning team once again received good news, with the team nearing cooperation with James Webb. The news was revealed by European basketball journalist Chema de Lucas, stating that former NBA player James Webb III terminated his contract with Turkish Super League team Pinar Karsiyaka due to unpaid wages. Webb's next destination is the CBA league, with hopes of joining Liaoning team. Webb is only 31 years old, standing at 206 cm tall and weighing 98 kg, playing as a forward on the court. Webb played for the Nets during the 2017-2018 season but had very few opportunities, averaging only 1.6 points and 2.4 rebounds. This season, Webb played in the Turkish league, averaging 32 minutes per game, scoring 15.3 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 2 steals, with a shooting percentage of 50.8% and a three-point percentage of 47.8%. Additionally, Webb's average steals and efficiency rating are the highest in the Turkish Super League, indicating he is a very capable player. Interestingly, Webb knows Fergie, as they both represented the United States together in the 2020 America's Cup qualifiers, which might have facilitated his move…

CBA court controversy reignites as Zhao Rui is ejected from the Shandong versus Xinjiang match for colliding with a referee, sparking heated discussions. Will such behavior lead to severe punishment? On one hand, strict penalties are necessary to uphold game rules; on the other, the national team is about to face Japan, and Zhao Rui, as a core guard, is indispensable. How will the CBA balance rules and the bigger picture? During the Shandong versus Xinjiang game, Zhao Rui suddenly lost his cool and directly "rammed into the referee," leaving the referee with a look of委屈, as if saying, "What did I do to you?" The referee didn't let it slide and promptly showed a red card, sending Zhao Rui "back home." Honestly, this kind of incident happening in the CBA opens one's eyes. Referees are being challenged; could there be a "full-court brawl" next? The CBA league's top brass is likely scratching their heads—punish him, and Zhao Rui is the national team's prized guard; not punish him, and how will referees officiate future games? This is clearly a no-win situation. If Zhao Rui receives a heavy penalty, he might be suspended for at least ten games, which would effectively end his season since there aren't many games left in the second stage. But if you let it slide, does that mean other players can learn from Zhao Rui and engage in "physical confrontations with referees"? Can referees still "survive" in the CBA? If Zhao Rui really gets a ten-game suspension, the national team will have to deal with the…

Basketball Girl Who Lost Legs at Age 4, Now 28 and Beautiful, Also Became a Civil Servant Introduction Wrapped in half of an old basketball and using two wooden handles to continue walking with determination, this is Qian Hongyan, known as the "Basketball Girl" over 20 years ago. A car accident took away her legs, but she still relied on this half basketball to live on tenaciously, going to school, coming home, laughing and playing like any other child. More than twenty years have passed, and some people worried that as she grew older, she might start to care about her own imperfection, or even lose her strength and give up. However, Qian Hongyan did not. She has not only become an Olympic athlete for the glory of the country but also passed the civil service examination to help those with disabilities like herself. Helping Others Now In 2017, at the front desk of the Luliang County Disabled Persons' Federation's government service center, Qian Hongyan, sitting in a wheelchair, handled various affairs for the people coming and going. "I have gained a job, a guarantee, and warmth," she said. Although she now handles various businesses skillfully, she still vividly remembers her first day at work: "Working is completely different from my previous swimming training. It was inevitable for me to feel uneasy without any work experience." The first challenge she faced was the "hardware facilities". When she first started working, there were no barrier-free facilities in the government hall, and she had to rely on her father to pick her…

When it comes to the strongest domestic players in recent seasons, many people may have their own opinions. Some fans might choose Hu Jinqiu, as he has been particularly stable over the past few seasons with a long-term average of over 20 points per game; others might choose Zhao Jiwei, who is an FMVP and helped Liaoning Men's Basketball win three consecutive championships. Of course, everyone has their own perspective, but relatively speaking, those who have truly faced off against them might have a clearer understanding. Recently, a CBA super foreign aid introduced his own choice for the strongest domestic player. Recently, Dominique Jones, the small foreign aid of Jilin Men's Basketball, was interviewed by the media. When asked who he considered the strongest domestic player, Jones gave his answer. Surprisingly, he did not choose Zhao Jiwei, Zhang Zhenlin, or Hu Jinqiu, but instead believed that Guo Ailun was the strongest domestic player in his heart. Jones stated: "I have witnessed the growth of many Chinese players. Since I play as a guard, I would say that the strongest Chinese player is also a guard, and I believe it is Guo Ailun." Furthermore, Jones added: Although the current strongest (guard) players are Zhao Jiwei and Zhao Rui, five years ago it was definitely Guo Ailun. He had a great career and achieved many remarkable accomplishments. I've known Guo Ailun since the 13-14 season when I played for Liaoning Men's Basketball, and he was still very young at that time. I watched him grow step by step, and he has already…

The CBA league is down to just 21 rounds of regular season games, with the current standings showing Zhejiang Guangsha in first place, Shanxi in second, Shandong in third, Zhejiang Chouzhou in fourth, Liaoning and Xinjiang in fifth and sixth respectively. Despite Xinjiang being ranked behind Liaoning, they have one more win and have played one fewer game. As a result, the best head coach for the new season is likely to come from these six teams. Originally, Liu Wei, the head coach of Xinjiang, was the most likely candidate for this honor, as he is the only one among them who is coaching a CBA team for the first time. However, a remark of "Let him shoot! Let the SB shoot!" may have cost him his eligibility for the award. Although there have been changes in the number of foreign players used in the new season, teams still need the support of domestic players to remain competitive in the long run. It has been proven that teams with strong overall strength in domestic players still have the potential to compete for the championship title in the new season. While it is not yet possible to confidently predict the championship outcome for the new season, teams that are currently in the top six of the league, such as Zhejiang Guangsha, Shanxi, Shandong (although Shandong may be slightly lacking in overall strength, but if injuries can be controlled well, they still have a chance), Zhejiang Chouzhou, Xinjiang, and Liaoning, are capable of competing for the championship after the halfway point of…

The CBA regular season has reached its 26th round, with last night's five matches proving to be incredibly exciting. As Beijing defeated Zhejiang, Fujian lost to Shenzhen, Guangzhou fell to Jiangsu, Qingdao overcame Shanxi, and Xinjiang staged a comeback against Sichuan, the CBA standings were thrown into chaos overnight! Seven teams are vying for second place, while three teams are fighting for the final playoff spot, which is twelfth place. Shanghai is making the strongest comeback, closely followed by Shenzhen! Let's delve into the specifics: Last night, Shanxi suffered a 122-129 defeat on the road against Qingdao, ending their winning streak and dropping to third place. The game was a fierce battle throughout, with Qingdao's ten-rebound advantage being the decisive factor. Both teams made numerous mistakes, giving each other opportunities. Qingdao had 19 turnovers, while Shanxi had 20. Additionally, the match was marked by constant conflicts, with three players from both teams fouling out, including Shanxi's foreign player Diawara, who shoved Jia Cheng and received another unsportsmanlike foul, accumulating a total of five unsportsmanlike fouls, which is not good news. In terms of scoring, four Qingdao players scored in double figures, with two of them reaching 30+ points. Weatherspoon scored 39 points, 1 rebound, and 8 assists, while Mickey contributed 32 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists. These two foreign players really put in an effort!
