The CBA regular season has reached its 25th round, and the league's hierarchy is becoming increasingly clear. Teams like Guangsha, Shanxi, Shandong, Zhejiang, Liaoning, and Xinjiang are fiercely competing for the top spot. After a streak of 11 consecutive victories, Shanghai's actual record has entered the top 12, and who can stop their winning streak has become a hot topic among fans. In the remaining games of the second stage, Shanghai will face Ningbo, Tianjin, Beikong, Guangzhou, Jiangsu, Liaoning, Shanxi, Sichuan, Guangdong, Tongxi, Shanxi, and Beijing in succession. It remains to be seen how many consecutive wins they can achieve.
On January 4th, Beijing time, Shanghai will host Ningbo at home, which will be the third encounter between the two teams. In the previous two matches, Shanghai suffered defeats with scores of 99-114 and 104-115. In this third battle, Shanghai is determined to avenge their losses, while Ningbo is eager to defeat Shanghai for the third time. The competition between the inside and outside lines is about to ignite again, but who will have the last laugh?
This time, Lofoten will join forces with Wang Zhelin to dominate the paint. In the second match against Ningbo, Lofoten had not yet adapted to the game and scored 18 points with 10 rebounds. Now, Lofoten has completely transformed and is wreaking havoc in the CBA, reaching an invincible state. On the other hand, Ningbo only has Chang Lin available in the frontcourt. With Lofoten's abilities, he can completely rule the paint, and with the addition of Wang Zhelin, it is almost certain that Shanghai will crush Ningbo's frontcourt. It remains to be seen how Lofoten will perform.
In addition to the frontcourt, Li Tianrong and Li Hongquan of Shanghai are also points that Ningbo cannot solve. Since the second stage, Li Tianrong and Li Hongquan have changed dramatically, becoming unstoppable on the offensive end, especially with significant improvements in their three-point shooting. They almost always explode in every game, which is an indispensable factor in Shanghai's winning streak. This time, the two will deliver a spectacular performance for the fans, so let's look forward to it together.
Whether it's in terms of configuration or tactics, Shanghai has a complete advantage across all lines. Moreover, Shanghai has the home court advantage. As long as they maintain a steady approach, achieving a 12th consecutive win is just a matter of time. Ningbo can only fight for honor.
Match time: 19:35 on January 4th. Let's cheer for our main team together!
