Recently, CBA referees have become the main characters of the league, even able to determine the direction of the game. Players such as Zhao Rui and Qi Lin have been suspended and fined for their dissatisfaction with the referees. In a match between Zhou Qi and Qingdao Men's Basketball, he was also dissatisfied with the referees and was directly ejected from the court. According to reports from Qingdao media, Zhou Qi is likely to be given an additional suspension.
This season, Shanxi Men's Basketball's biggest success has been their foreign players, especially Diallo, who just helped the team defeat Shanghai Men's Basketball. However, due to family reasons, he will leave the team for a period of time and is expected to return during the club cup if all goes well.
Liaoning Men's Basketball seems to have encountered a curse with their big foreign players this season, with both Achuer and Ture performing poorly and leaving. Patton initially performed well upon joining, but with the addition of Weber, he became redundant. Therefore, Liaoning Men's Basketball is also looking for better foreign players, and Patton will be replaced.
Beijing Shougang is currently experiencing internal and external troubles, with many injured players and Xu Limin facing the risk of being sacked. In such a situation, problems are bound to arise among the players. Zhou Qi exploded in a match against Qingdao Men's Basketball, but it was against the referees. Unlike others, Zhou Qi was first called for a technical foul, then he angrily scolded the referees, resulting in him being stripped of his authority.
According to reports from Qingdao media, Zhou Qi is likely to be given an additional suspension because the CBA company has just emphasized the importance of sportsmanship and discipline, and Zhou Qi could be seen as going against the wind.
Of course, the issue of referees must also be taken seriously, or there may be bigger dramas in the future.
Shanxi Men's Basketball's current achievements can be attributed to Diallo, who can be considered one of the contributors, especially in the match against Shanghai Men's Basketball, where he defeated Lofton in the final moments.
According to media reports, Diallo will leave Shanxi Men's Basketball soon due to family reasons and return home for a period of time, possibly missing about 3 games. This might be the reason why Shanxi Men's Basketball previously added Godwin. If all goes well, Diallo is expected to return to the team during the window period.
Liaoning Men's Basketball and Guangdong Hongyuan seem to have become two extremes, with one struggling to pick good big foreign players and the other having issues with their small foreign players. Liaoning Men's Basketball has already cut Achuer and Ture, and Patton, who was highly anticipated, ended up underperforming after a promising start. In the match against Ningbo Fubang, he did not perform well, and his recent playing time has been very limited.
With the addition of Weber, Patton became redundant, so Liaoning Men's Basketball plans to replace Patton and look for a better big foreign player during the second window period. After all, the competition this season is fierce, and Patton may not be able to help Liaoning Men's Basketball in their pursuit of the championship.
