Last night, the 33rd round of the CBA regular season was completed, and the rankings on the leaderboard have become chaotic once again! Shandong men's basketball team defeated Jiangsu, rising to second place in the league, closely following the first-ranked Zhejiang Guangsha. Shandong men's basketball team, like Shanxi, lost the title of the dark horse this season. Under the leadership of Qiu Biao, the team has undergone significant changes, with a renewed overall temperament and spirit on the court. This season's Shandong team is expected to be able to enter the top 4.
Liaoning had a fierce battle with Zhejiang, but ultimately suffered a heavy defeat by 13 points, causing them to drop out of the top four and now ranking fifth. Liaoning's overall performance in the second stage has not been as good as in the first stage, with their weaknesses gradually surfacing. Zhao Jiwei, who returned from injury, still hasn't regained his form, and tonight he continued to struggle, unable to score offensively and making many mistakes, which was a key factor in the team's loss. Tomorrow night, Guangdong will face Nanjing, and after achieving a 9-game winning streak, their ranking will be the same as Liaoning's. Liaoning's next game against the league leader Guangsha is expected to result in another loss, with their ranking likely to fall further.
The rankings on the leaderboard are changing daily, with the exception of the league leader Zhejiang Guangsha, who maintains a clear lead. Currently, it seems that no other team can shake their position, and Guangsha has already secured their spot in the playoffs. With this trend, the competition among the top 4 teams in the league is the most intense.
