CBA Three Major News: Beikong Adjusts Coaches, Yu Dehao Out for the Season with Serious Injury, Zhejiang Men's Basketball Penalized
Beijing time January 20th, CBA this season has passed the halfway point. Compared to last season, the CBA pattern has changed greatly. Shandong men's basketball and Shanxi men's basketball have become dark horses, ranking second and third in the standings respectively. However, looking back at the two Beijing teams that invested heavily in the offseason, Shougang and Beikong, their results are not optimistic, especially Beikong men's basketball. During the offseason, they recruited soldiers and horses, introduced Salinger and Shen Zijie, and also signed Zhu Songwei. It was originally thought that there would be a place for Beikong in the finals.
However, from the beginning of the season until now, Beikong men's basketball team's performance has been poor, and even suffered consecutive defeats, which also made the head coach Min Lulei controversial, especially in terms of personnel, many fans think that he is rigid in using people and poor in on-site adaptability, so there was once a call for him to step down. So will Min Lulei step down because of this? The answer is no for the time being. Why is this? In the previous season, Min Lulei had achieved satisfactory results for Beikong's high-level management. Although his current coaching record is not good, Beikong is still willing to give him some more time.
Although Min Lulei will not step down, in order to improve the team's performance, Beikong men's basketball team recently adjusted the coaches and signed a foreign coach, Biedov, who was once an assistant coach of the Chinese men's basketball team. Now he has joined the Beikong men's basketball coaching staff and will assist Min Lulei in guiding the work. If Min Lulei continues to lead the team with poor results in the future, it is not ruled out that Biedov will directly replace him.
Shandong men's basketball team is undoubtedly a dark horse this season. From being unoptimistic to the current second place, they have proved themselves with strength. However, recently, they have also encountered some problems, that is, injury problems. Yu Dehao and Chris have both suffered injuries, especially Yu Dehao. According to the latest news, Yu Dehao has been seriously injured in his leg and has been confirmed to be out for the second stage, unable to play in the next two games. It is hoped that he can recover smoothly during the window period.
On the evening of the 19th, Liaoning men's basketball team and Zhejiang men's basketball team staged an exciting battle. Both sides played very well, but there were also some controversies, that is, the behavior of Zhejiang fans insulting players, almost causing a conflict. It is reported that the CBA company has decided to punish Zhejiang men's basketball team, making deductions from funds and canceling the selection of the competition area. Therefore, it must be said that home fans need to protect their own team more, because their irrational behavior makes the main team punished, which should not be the case.
