After the New Year's Day battles, the CBA rankings are in chaos once again! Liaoning suffered a crushing defeat on the road against Beijing, ending their four-game winning streak. They have been double-killed by Beijing this season and currently sit in fifth place. The main reason for Liaoning's defeat last night was the lack of players, coupled with the fact that the two veterans were too exhausted, and the big foreign aid did not play. After Beijing's victory, they rose to seventh place! Another intense matchup was between Xinjiang and Shandong. The game was fiercely contested, with Zhao Rui being ejected for striking a referee. A total of 62 fouls and 7 technical fouls were called, with 2 players being ejected and 2 players fouling out, making it a brutal battle. After Xinjiang's loss, they dropped from fourth to sixth place, while Shandong soared to third in the league after their victory. In another exciting match, Guangdong defeated their nemesis Tianjin at home, but their ranking remained unchanged, still at ninth place. Guangdong was triple-killed by Tianjin last season, but they successfully completed their revenge in this game. Although they almost suffered a comeback by Tianjin in the end, Du Runwang's crucial three-pointer saved the team. In another match, Guangsha won convincingly against Gongzuo, maintaining their firm hold on first place in the league, unshakable by the wind. Guangzhou, on the other hand, fell to the third-to-last spot, with no hope of making the playoffs this season.

In the CBA league, selecting foreign players is definitely a science and a technical skill that not only tests the vision of the team management but also the team's channels. The most skilled at selecting foreign players in the CBA are undoubtedly Shanxi and Zhejiang teams. These two teams not only have extremely rich foreign player resources and smooth channels but also have sufficient financial resources from their clubs and the unique vision of their management. This season, with the foreign players playing four quarters and seven times, the importance of foreign players has been further enhanced, and Shanxi and Zhejiang's rankings have stabilized in the top four of the league. There is such a team whose foreign player resources are not the best, but relying on the operation of the club, they have won 12 games out of 14 in the second stage. After defeating Xinjiang, the team also made a five-game winning streak to impact the top three of the standings, which is Shandong team. At the beginning of the season, there were actually some problems with their foreign player structure. Gali and Wiggins did not have stable shooting, and Chris was difficult to control his temper, and they lost five games in the whole first stage. The club was also very decisive in killing. When Wiggins was injured, they decisively cut Wiggins and introduced Moore, who excels in shooting, and supplemented the inside line with Kumajie, a center with a height of 221cm as the fourth foreign aid. This operation now seems to be a divine operation,…

On January 1st, Beijing time, the "New Year's Day Battle" between Xinjiang Men's Basketball Team and Shandong Men's Basketball Team witnessed one of the most intense moments in the CBA this season and possibly the last decade. Zhao Rui, after attempting a layup, angrily confronted the referee and was subsequently ejected from the game for colliding with the official. It is rare to see a player physically assault a referee in the CBA, despite instances of player fights and fan conflicts. While it is true that Zhao Rui was fouled right in front of the referee, who should not have overlooked it, Zhao Rui's impulsive action crossed a line, potentially leading to severe consequences for Xinjiang. According to reports from journalists, Zhao Rui may face a six-game suspension and a 200,000 yuan fine post-match. Zhao Rui's unnecessary physical contact with the referee could be subject to CBA disciplinary rules. If judged under Article 25 of Chapter 1 of Section 2 of the CBA Disciplinary Code, which stipulates a suspension of 1-3 games and a fine of 50,000 to 100,000 yuan for intentional unnecessary physical contact with a referee, the situation could escalate. Under Article 28 of the same chapter and section, a first offense could result in a suspension of 3-6 games and a fine of 100,000 to 200,000 yuan. In particularly serious cases, a player could lose their eligibility for the season or even be suspended for a year. Zhao Rui's direct confrontation with the referee could be deemed "particularly serious," warranting a potential one-year suspension. However, considering the…

The highly anticipated second stage of the CBA regular season has been full of intense battles. In a recent focus match, the dark horse Shandong men's basketball team ended Xinjiang's home winning streak with an away victory of 111-107, drawing attention from fans. In this game, Shandong faced unfavorable refereeing but managed to end Xinjiang's home winning streak in a tough away match. The strongest "secret weapon" of Shandong, Yu Dehao, delivered a surprising performance on the offensive end. According to statistics, Yu Dehao came off the bench for 25 minutes, scoring 11 points with 2 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 steal, shooting 3 out of 9 and making both free throws. However, most of his three-point shots were crucial, and his plus-minus value of +20 was the highest in the game. Coach Qiubiao led Shandong to a miraculous victory, giving the team a chance to compete for the championship. At the beginning of the game, Xinjiang's main guard Zhao Rui was sent off for colliding with the referee, but both teams still showed a high level of competitive spirit. However, as the game entered the decisive moment, Shandong seemed to encounter unfavorable controversial calls. Unfavorable situations for Shandong occurred frequently, such as Gaili's 2+1 not being awarded, Tao Hanlin's foul turning into a personal turnover, and Guo Kai's clean steal resulting in 6 fouls and a free throw for Xinjiang. These controversial calls put great pressure on Shandong. However, under Qiubiao's leadership, the team remained united and responded with more active defense and counterattacks. Due to Yu Dehao's subpar…

The most important thing for Liaoning team next is to reach a deal with Guangzhou team. In the CBA league's 2024-2025 season, the implementation of the four-section seven-foreign aid use policy has caused chaos in the league standings. Even strong teams like Liaoning Ben Gang, Guangdong Hongyuan, Beijing Beiqi, and Xinjiang Yili have not dared to say that they will win the CBA championship this season. It should be noted that Liaoning team has won three consecutive championships in the past three seasons under the coaching of head coach Yang Ming, creating a grand cause of the Liaoning team dynasty by taking advantage of the weak front line of Guangdong team, the empty interior of Zhejiang Guangsha team, and the lackluster backcourt of Xinjiang team. However, in the new season when Liaoning team was striving for its fourth consecutive championship in team history, due to the unexpected injuries of core players such as Zhao Jiwei and Zhang Zhenlin, coupled with the failure to find a suitable foreign aid for the team's tactical system, the team's performance fell into a trough, and at the worst time, it successively lost to Shanxi team, Jilin team, and Beijing team, swallowing the bitter fruit of three consecutive defeats. Although tonight, with the support of Wells scoring 50 points, Liaoning team ended Xinjiang team's four-game winning streak while also helping the team win a tough victory that is beneficial to the ranking of the standings, the cruel reality is that Liaoning team is about to face a devilish schedule against Guangdong team, Beijing team, and…

Shandong Taishan FC is set to begin their winter training for the new season on January 6th, and at that time, the team's personnel adjustments will become clear. After the end of last season, several players' contracts with Taishan FC are due to expire, including multiple foreign players whose contracts are nearing their end. Last season, Taishan FC's performance was not up to par, largely due to issues with their foreign players. As a result, fans are hoping for adjustments to be made during this off-season. Among the current foreign players at Taishan FC, there are two central defenders, Jardel and Marcelo. There have been media reports suggesting that the team might have to choose between the two. Jardel, in an effort to renew his contract with Taishan FC, has even changed his agent, becoming a player under the Korean agency, which significantly increases his chances of renewal. However, regarding Marcelo, recent media reports indicate that he has personally confirmed that Taishan FC will not renew his contract. Despite this, it seems that even if Taishan FC does not renew Marcelo's contract, they are not necessarily committed to renewing Jardel's either. According to recent reports from Shandong media, Taishan FC will be releasing both central defenders. Jardel is very keen on renewing his contract, but Taishan FC cannot meet his renewal conditions. Jardel's abilities are unquestionable; in recent seasons, he has repeatedly stepped up to save the team in times of crisis, earning recognition from fans. However, Jardel's frequent injuries and low attendance rate have had a significant impact on…

Guangdong's latest news! Zhu Zong locks down NBL scoring king Bart, Xu Jie gets a new car Guangdong Hongyuan has been very unsuccessful in finding foreign aid this season, signing several subpar foreign players. The recently signed foreign aid, Les, is not even being used and is sitting on the bench as a spectator. It is said that Guangdong is going to give up on Les and look for new foreign aid again. Recently, media people have revealed that agents have recommended a very practical small foreign aid to Zhu Zong, and Zhu Zong has roughly locked in a target candidate, which is the NBL scoring champion, Taisi Bart. According to Guangdong's current experience, they definitely need to find cost-effective foreign aid. Therefore, Zhu Zong has set his sights on the NBL league. Several excellent foreign players in the league are from the NBL, including Ji Lunwater and Wells. Bart is 27 years old, 1.98 meters tall, and is a swingman with explosive physical qualities. His playing style is very similar to that of Weems back then, which exactly meets Guangdong's current lineup requirements. During his time in the NBL, Bart averaged 31 minutes per game, scoring 28.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.1 steals, and has repeatedly scored over 30 points, making him the true scoring champion of the NBL. Moreover, Bart's three-point shooting and mid-range shooting are both excellent, he can dribble and has the ability to organize and run positions, which currently looks like a very good choice. Xu Jie gets a new car After Guangdong…

On January 2nd, Beijing time, Guangdong defeated their tough opponent Tianjin Men's Basketball Team and gained valuable rest time. They will face the recently hot Shandong Men's Basketball Team at home in a few days. Overnight, Guangdong received three pieces of good news! The first piece of good news is that Xu Jie has received a new car. Xu Jie has become a "glorious owner" of a certain car brand, not only receiving a luxury PHEV worth 400,000 yuan as a gift but also signing an endorsement contract, which can be considered as a subsidy for his "child labor contract" with Guangdong. The second piece of good news is that Guangdong has confirmed to change their small foreign player. According to Guan Xin, the reporter following the Hongyuan team, Guangdong has parted ways with foreign player Les due to his "problematic attitude." It is reported that Zhu Fangyu is already looking for a new small foreign player. The third piece of good news is that Hu Mingxuan may return early. Guangdong has invited Ye En, the strongest domestic rehabilitation teacher, to help Xiao Hu with his rehabilitation training. Judging from the video of Hu Mingxuan's movements, his recovery progress is rapid, and he is expected to return early. Since Xu Jie was promoted to the Guangdong first team, his salary has always been low, with income not matching his abilities. Some fans even said that Xu Jie signed a "child labor contract." However, the advantage of being in Guangdong Men's Basketball Team is that there is no shortage of commercial…

The CBA regular season has quickly reached its 24th round, with several major teams currently vying for the top spot. Looking at the current rankings, it's a mixed bag of joy and concern. Unlike previous seasons, the competition for playoff spots this season has largely been settled, with the top 12 teams already determined. The remaining suspense lies in which team will win the regular-season championship, who will secure the top four and eight spots, and how high Shanghai can climb. Let's take a look: The top 12 teams have been largely decided, with eight teams likely to be eliminated early! Unlike previous years, the change in foreign player usage rules has made the league more clearly divided between strong and weak teams, with playoff spots becoming clearer. Guangsha, Shanxi, Zhejiang, and Xinjiang are currently in the top four, followed closely by Liaoning, Shandong, Beijing, and Qingdao. Meanwhile, Guangdong, Beikong, Tongxi, and Shanghai all have a win rate exceeding 50%. However, Jilin, Ningbo, Sichuan, Tianjin, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Jiangsu, and Fujian have seen a significant drop in their win rates, making it extremely difficult for them to make a comeback into the top 12. Jilin's Jones, Jiang Weize, and Jiang Yuxing have withdrawn due to injuries, effectively giving up on this season. The most unfortunate teams are Guangzhou and Shenzhen, who had to sell off their assets due to financial issues. Rebuilding comes at a cost, and what was once a fierce battle for playoff spots until the last round now seems like these bottom eight teams will have to wait…

The first week of voting results for the CBA All-Star Game have been announced, with Guangdong team's guard Xu Jie emerging as the top vote-getter among guards with 294315 votes, forming a stark contrast to his teammate Hu Mingxuan. As last year's vote king, Hu Mingxuan not only missed out on the starting lineup for the South Division this year but also suffered a "Waterloo" in the fan voting. On the other hand, Liaoning team had only Zhao Jiwei selected for the starting lineup, which sparked discussions about the voting results and player performances in the All-Star Game. Looking at the votes, Xu Jie not only won by a landslide in the guard position but also ranked just behind the league-wide vote king Hu Jinqiu with 413320 votes, reflecting the high recognition from fans for his on-court performance. In comparison, Hu Mingxuan's vote count appeared particularly "cold." Last year, he attended the All-Star Game as the vote king, but this year he was completely unheard of in the first week of voting results. Hu Mingxuan's injury left the team's backcourt lacking depth, and fans' concerns about his recent performance and physical condition were felt by Guangdong fans, making such results emotional. In fact, Hu Mingxuan's omission is not entirely without reason. In early December last year, he suffered a shoulder injury during a match against Jiangsu team and was diagnosed with a shoulder injury requiring at least three months of recovery. Since then, Hu Mingxuan has had to temporarily leave the court, missing many recent matches for the Guangdong team.…
