The 25th round of the CBA regular season has concluded, with only nine games played due to the postponement of the match between Shanghai and Shanxi. This round featured intense matchups, including the focus game between Beijing and Liaoning, as well as a strong confrontation between Xinjiang and Shandong. Ultimately, Beijing and Shandong emerged victorious against their respective opponents. Additionally, Zhejiang's unexpected loss to Shenzhen added to the excitement of the round. Let's take a look at the specific matchups and results of this round. After this round of games, there have been significant changes in the CBA rankings. Among the top four teams, Guangsha maintained its lead in the standings with a big win over Guangzhou. Shanxi, which rested for this game, remains second in the standings. Both Zhejiang and Xinjiang lost their games in this round, resulting in a drop in their rankings. Notably, Xinjiang's undefeated home record was broken, causing them to fall from third to sixth place. On the other hand, Shandong's recent strong performance propelled them into the top four, securing the third spot, while Zhejiang holds fourth place. Despite losing to Beijing in this round, Liaoning managed to hold their ground with a makeshift lineup that managed to compete for three quarters. Looking ahead, Liaoning's roster will receive reinforcements, with the arrival of big foreign aid Patton. Standing at 2.11 meters tall, Patton's addition not only addresses Liaoning's interior shortcomings but also provides Yang Ming with more options in his lineup strategies. With Zhao Jiwei's recovery progressing well, Liaoning's situation is expected to improve.…

When it comes to the biggest dark horse of this season's CBA, Shanxi Men's Basketball Team undoubtedly stands out. This season, they have made remarkable progress, ranking second in the CBA standings. However, while achieving excellent results, their foul actions have also caught the attention of fans. They have a total of 15 flagrant fouls this season, ranking first in the league, and this time they added another one. Judging from the newly added flagrant foul, some players of the Shanxi team should indeed control their emotions. In the CBA regular season match between Shanxi and Qingdao, both teams played fiercely, with the score tightly contested in the second quarter. With about 5 minutes left in the second quarter, Diawara broke through with the ball and was fouled by a Qingdao player behind him. However, he still chose to shoot, only to be blocked again by Jia Cheng, who was protecting the rim. Diawara eventually fell to the ground. After falling, Diawara was furious, believing that Jia Cheng did it on purpose and had stepped on him. So after getting up, he pushed Jia Cheng hard, who was innocent and didn't notice at all, pushing him as far as 2-3 meters away before Jia Cheng fell to the ground. Fortunately, the referee and teammates came over in time to prevent the conflict from escalating further. After reviewing the video, the referee gave Diawara a flagrant foul. Honestly, judging from this incident alone, Diawara really went too far; he didn't control his emotions well. Jia Cheng didn't have any obvious malicious…

Zhang Ning's Struggle in CBA: A Negative Example and Targeted by Referees On January 3rd, Beijing time, after being criticized by the CBA referees in a meeting, Zhang Ning seemed to have lost his defensive edge. He committed four fouls throughout the game, with none in the first 45 minutes and all four in the last three minutes, leaving him unable to stop any opponent. This match was of great concern as Shanxi, a strong contender for the championship this season, faced a formidable Qingdao team. More importantly, Zhang Ning, the core player and tough guy of Shanxi, had just been officially named and criticized by the CBA referees during their meeting. The referees specifically pointed out Zhang Ning's situation, stating that some of his actions were too aggressive, appearing energetic but actually quite dirty, easily harming opponents. Therefore, they criticized him for having too many minor actions. Zhang Ning has become a negative example and typical case in the CBA, with referees expected to scrutinize his actions more closely, keeping a tight watch on him, and the camera always focused on him. After learning about this, Zhang Ning responded with bravado, saying that being under close attention is a good thing as it allows them to find ways to win games and earn respect, as well as to improve his own defense continuously. However, despite his words, it was evident in the game that Zhang Ning was no longer daring to make moves defensively, leading to him being unable to stop his opponents directly. Previously, he played with great…

Just now, the well-known blogger "I Love Women's Basketball" posted on social media that Shanghai Women's Basketball Team has signed Guerantes, the main player of Puerto Rican Women's Basketball Team. Guerantes averaged 12.3 points and 3.3 rebounds when representing Puerto Rican Women's Basketball Team in the Paris Olympics last summer, which is still very good. Guerantes scored 20 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 assists when representing Puerto Rican Women's Basketball Team against Chinese Women's Basketball Team in the Paris Olympics, making her the best performing player in the Puerto Rican team. This time, Guerantes joining forces with Shanghai Women's Basketball Team is bound to bring about certain changes to the current WCBA championship landscape, especially since Shanghai Women's Basketball Team already has two very good foreign players, Cardozo and Bradford, this season. So far this season, Cardozo has been averaging 19.8 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 3 assists, ranking ninth on the scoring list, while Bradford has been contributing 17.8 points, 12.6 rebounds, and 3 assists to Shanghai Women's Basketball Team, ranking 18th on the scoring list. Therefore, the two foreign players of Shanghai Women's Basketball Team have performed very well this season. Now that Shanghai Women's Basketball Team has signed another strong player like Guerantes, it seems that they are determined to aim for the championship. In the 17 games played so far this season, Shanghai Women's Basketball Team has achieved a record of 11 wins and 6 losses, ranking fifth in Group A, only half a game behind Zhejiang Women's Basketball Team, and their points are the same as…

Translation of the article content into English: The CBA regular season is heating up, with Zhejiang team suffering an upset loss to Shenzhen team in a tense and exciting match, scoring 102-105. This defeat has caused Zhejiang to drop to third place in the rankings, with Guangdong team and Guangzhou team also experiencing a decline in their standings. Meanwhile, Liaoning, Shandong, and Xinjiang teams all have the same points, making the competition fierce. The loss in this game has narrowed the gap between Zhejiang and the top two teams to just one point. At the start of the game, Wang Yibo scored a basket, giving Zhejiang an 8-3 lead. However, Shenzhen was not willing to back down, launching a strong inside attack to overtake the score. Zhejiang attempted to regain the advantage, with Rong Zifeng scoring five consecutive points. The two teams went back and forth, ending the first quarter in a draw. In the second quarter, both teams made efforts to break through from the outside, with Shenzhen taking the lead first. At halftime, Zhejiang trailed by 14 points. In the second half, Shenzhen created another miracle at the start, building a lead of more than 20 points. Liu Zeyi responded with a three-pointer, and the two teams engaged in a fierce battle.

Two Major Upsets in CBA! Guangdong's Rival Loses to the Last-Place Team, Shenzhen Overturns Zhejiang Away? A team that has lost 15 consecutive games in the season, can it be considered an upset if they win against the second-to-last team? A strong team ranked third in the league is knocked down by an opponent ranked third from the bottom, is this not a major upset? On New Year's Eve, the CBA court witnessed successive upsets - Zhejiang lost to Shenzhen, and Fujian defeated Jiangsu. What exactly happened that night? Was it an unexpected outbreak of the weak teams, or a collective collapse of the strong teams' defenses? Fans are discussing animatedly, and some even lament, "In this day and age, even stability has become a luxury on the CBA court." The biggest topic of this round of matches was undoubtedly Shenzhen's away upset victory over Zhejiang. Shenzhen ranks 18th in the standings, almost at the bottom, while Zhejiang is a powerhouse ranked third in the league. Before the game, almost no one favored Shenzhen. However, the result was unexpected, as Shenzhen won the game with a 4-point advantage, which can be described as a good show of "snake biting the elephant" reversal. At the beginning of the game, Zhejiang's performance was still acceptable, leading slightly in the first quarter. But from the second quarter onwards, Shenzhen took full control of the game - they showed extraordinary energy on both offense and defense, especially taking advantage of Zhejiang's imbalanced attack and defense to launch multiple smooth counterattacks. This is actually closely…

The second stage of the CBA league is in full swing. Recently, Jones of the Jilin team has been plagued by injuries. He has not been able to play since December 26th, and it is unknown when he will return. However, he also took the time to accept an interview with a media person, discussing the current state of Chinese men's basketball. A media person asked Jones who he thought was the most powerful player in the CBA. Jones thought for a moment and said that he felt Guo Ailun was the best five years ago, but now Zhao Jiwei and Zhao Rui are the best. It is unclear whether this view can be accepted by most fans, as many may feel it is biased. Players like Yi Jianlian, Zhou Qi, and Hu Jinqiu are also very powerful. However, Jones also mentioned that because he plays as a guard, he chose the best players from among the guards. Jones has been in the CBA since 2013 and has played for nearly 11 years, changing teams multiple times. Starting from Liaoning, he has been to Jilin, Shanxi, Qingdao, Nanjing, Tongxi, and Xinjiang. This season, he returned to Jilin, so he has seen many players in the CBA. Based on his resume, he is qualified to evaluate the current CBA players. Jones said he watched Guo Ailun play when he was still a child and felt that he grew every year. However, Guo Ailun has been plagued by injuries in recent years and is no longer the best player. He believes that…

According to the team reporter Guan Xin, Guangdong Men's Basketball Team will no longer give Les the opportunity to play due to his professional attitude. Les will automatically leave the team after the one-month contract expires. It is said that the signing of Les itself was quite strange. After about 10 days of trial training, it was only announced in a covert manner. It was originally thought that Les could share about 10 minutes of playing time with Xu Jie, but it turned out that until he was abandoned, Les' total playing time did not exceed 5 minutes, and he didn't even break a sweat. This may also be the main reason for Les' emotional outburst. After traveling a long distance to find foreign aid, no matter how much the salary is, they should at least be given around a quarter of playing time to determine if they are suitable for playing in the CBA through actual combat. It is quite rare for a foreign aid like Les to only play for more than two minutes per game and then be deemed unsuitable. If the trial training could reveal the true quality, then why sign them? Is a monthly salary of $10,000 not money? It is reported that Guangdong Men's Basketball Team has quoted a price for the 1.97-meter forward Bart. Bart is a scoring machine from NBL Guangxi Weizhuang. Zhu Fangyu's move has been highly recognized by fans. Regardless of whether Bart can produce a chemical reaction with the team, finding such an independent and capable foreign aid is…

The second stage of the 2024-25 CBA regular season continues, with news about Chinese men's basketball power forward Cui Yongxi's imminent return to China heating up. According to informed sources, Chinese player Cui Yongxi, who was cut by the NBA Eastern Conference powerhouse Brooklyn Nets, is recovering well during his rehabilitation phase and has gradually started to get off crutches. It is reported that Cui Yongxi plans to return to the country later this month. This means that many CBA league teams, including the Guangdong team, will have the opportunity to contact Cui Yongxi in the near future. This is undoubtedly the best opportunity for Zhu Fangyu and Du Feng, who want to strengthen their front line. As we all know, Cui Yongxi previously signed a two-year two-way contract with the Nets, but suffered a serious ligament tear injury while playing for the Long Island Nets this season, after which he was cut by the Nets. Undoubtedly, Cui Yongxi still has the chance to make an impact in the NBA when he is 100% healthy. However, after suffering such a serious injury, Cui Yongxi is no longer favored by the outside world to continue playing in the NBA. Therefore, returning to the CBA league may be a better choice for Cui Yongxi in the future. Since the dark horse Guangzhou men's basketball team has sold many key players including Chen Yingjun, Zhu Mingzhen, Jia Mingru, Guo Kai, and Li Yanzhe, and signed new recruits Guo Ailun, Ding Yanhang, and others to join forces with Jiao Boqiao to form a new…

Recently, the Xinjiang-Shandong match has caused controversy, with Zhao Rui chasing and attacking a referee, which is unprecedented in CBA history. Zhao Rui was also severely punished, suspended for five games and fined 100,000 yuan. Although this is considered a severe punishment, it is lighter compared to the one-year suspension given to a CSL player for attacking a referee. Recently, the Chinese Basketball Association has also paid attention to protecting players and held an online referees' meeting to request stricter management of foul actions. Zhao Rui's attack on the referee was undoubtedly wrong, but there were reasons behind it. Some people say that Yu Dehao fouled Zhao Rui during his pursuit defense, and the action was quite significant. However, others argue that the pursuing defender did not commit a foul. So, did the pursuing defender actually foul? Is it a missed call? Recently, referee expert Ding Jianing provided a detailed interpretation. He bluntly stated that this is a hundred percent missed defensive foul. Zhao Rui, as a seasoned national-level player, if it was a foul that could be called or not called at the beginning of the game, he would not have exploded like that even if he was unclear about the situation. Ding Jianing analyzed in detail: The contact from point A to point B by the supplementary defender seriously affected Zhao Rui's RSBQ. Despite Zhao Rui's strength, he was hit so hard that he crashed directly into the basket frame, so the impact of this contact on him was quite significant. Ding Jianing then explained the reason for…
