On January 20, 2025, the 33rd round of the CBA regular season featured a key match where Guangsha Men's Basketball Team defeated Beijing Men's Basketball Team 94-91 on the road, securing their 10th consecutive victory and maintaining their position at the top of the CBA standings. For Beijing, this loss not only meant being double-killed by Guangsha but also signified that they had won only one game in the last six rounds, dropping out of the top eight, with their playoff prospects looking grim. In this game, Guangsha displayed their strongest offensive and defensive system of the season, with Hu Jinqiu standing out in particular. He shot 18 for 13, contributing 27 points and 6 rebounds, becoming the key figure in Guangsha's victory. Hu Jinqiu not only continuously scored inside but also showed his precise touch from outside, helping Guangsha maintain a stable offensive rhythm. Combined with Sun Minghui's 16 points and 8 assists, as well as Lin Bingsheng's crucial three-pointer, Guangsha demonstrated their all-around combat capabilities. Despite experiencing an offensive stall in the third quarter, Guangsha overcame difficulties with their tenacious defense and timely adjustments, ultimately holding onto their lead until the end and successfully suppressing Beijing's counterattack. Compared to Guangsha's strong performance, Beijing's offense struggled. Although Zhou Qi and Zeng Fanbo contributed 15 points and 13 points respectively, the team's overall offensive efficiency was low, especially with frequent misses from outside shooting, lacking effective scoring points. In the critical moments of the game, Beijing's mistakes gave Guangsha opportunities for counterattacks. Especially in the final stages of the game,…

On January 20th, Beijing time, Guangdong Hongyuan challenged Nanjing Tongxi in the CBA "Spring Festival Battle" away from home. After four quarters of competition, Guangdong defeated Tongxi 112-94 and won their ninth consecutive victory. In this game, Guangdong always firmly controlled the rhythm in their own hands, not giving Tongxi any chance. On the Guangdong side, Xu Jie, Bazley, and Jilunwater were able to get a perfect score. Morand and Zhang Wenyi performed well, while Du Runwang continued to struggle. In fact, Xu Jie's performance no longer needs much praise, because now he plays well, which is just basic operation. As Du Feng said, Xu Jie is completely at another level. Lin Wei on the other side did better in personal scoring, but Xu Jie's role in leading the team is irreplaceable. Throughout the game, Xu Jie scored 23 points, 13 assists, and 6 rebounds, a performance that can be called perfect. And Jilunwater continued his super-god performance, slashing 39 points, 13 rebounds, and 2 assists. Since Nanjing Tongxi has no big inside player, no one can stop Jilunwater from killing inside, and Water's outside shooting was also very good, completely collapsing Nanjing with Xu Jie's connection. Bazley is another big surprise for Guangdong. He, who was jokingly referred to by fans as a "bully god," played like CBA James against Tongxi. Slam dunks over people, driving hard to create 2+1, flying to block the opponent's small foreign aid, Bazley fully unleashed his physical talent, scoring 20 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 blocks throughout the game. In fact, with Bazley's…

A 16-game winning streak has given Shanghai Team a new lease on life and proved that they have the strength to challenge the top 4 and even the championship. However, after the winning streak, Shanghai Team encountered some trouble, losing consecutively to Liaoning and Shanxi, suffering two consecutive defeats. Although they still firmly occupy a playoff spot, it has stalled the team's progress forward, and they need to make adjustments to regain their form! The reasons for Shanghai Team's two consecutive defeats are numerous. When facing Liaoning, the absence of their key player Xiaolufu Dun caused a drop in the team's offensive and defensive capabilities, leading to an inevitable loss! In the match against Shanxi, they were on a continuous away game schedule. Although Xiaolufu Dun returned, the team's fatigue from traveling and the average performance of other players led to a loss of competitiveness! Fortunately, after the two consecutive defeats, Shanghai finally faced a weaker team - Sichuan Team, which gave them an…

This game was no exception; the Clippers controlled the pace throughout the match, leading by as much as 26 points at one point, ultimately securing a 14-point victory. For the Clippers, they are already familiar with such a game rhythm, and there are too many people capable of scoring during the game, presenting a widespread success. The Clippers won in their own way, which was quite lively. So, who contributed to the Clippers' victory? The first is Harden. It's true that Harden's shooting efficiency wasn't high in this game, but his value cannot be measured solely by shooting. While scoring 21 points, Harden also dished out 12 assists, securing a stable 20+10 stat line. This season's Harden is like Paul when he was with the Thunder, experiencing a second spring. It can be foreseen that Harden will make it to the All-Star team this season, though…

On January 20th, Casa Pia Brings Warmth Monday 004 Portuguese League Boavista VS Casa Pia Match Time: January 21st, 04:15 Boavista is deeply mired in a financial crisis and has encountered a transfer ban, allowing them to only sell players but not buy any, resulting in an unsatisfactory squad. After 17 matches in the Portuguese league, they have accumulated 12 points and are ranked at the bottom. Among these, they have 3 draws and 5 losses in 8 home games, scoring only 2 goals while conceding 12, failing to win a single match with an extremely weak attacking power. Additionally, their two main central midfielders, Silva and Perez, continue to be sidelined due to injuries and suspensions respectively, significantly impairing the team's midfield operations. Overall, there are too many negative factors, leaving them with no appeal. On the contrary, Casa Pia has accumulated 24 points after 17 matches in the Portuguese league, ranking 7th with significantly better results. In their recent 5 matches, they have won 3, drawn 1, and lost 1, showing a clear improvement in form. In terms of squad, they welcome back their top scorer Moreira from suspension, with a complete lineup ready to give it their all. They have more obvious highlights and are likely to gain support. Casa Pia starts with a medium-to-high return for the away -0.25 handicap, later dropping to a medium return for Casa Pia. On one hand, Boavista has no appeal, and Casa Pia's away handicap gives them support. On the other hand, under the circumstances where an away victory becomes…

On January 20th, Beijing time, although Guangzhou lost, Guo Ailun did not lose. He delivered an astonishing performance to prove that he deserves to be the All-Star starter, achieving a double-double in three quarters with a total of 27 points, 6 rebounds, and 12 assists, ranking third in the league. The starting lineup for CBA stars has been announced, and Guo Ailun's selection has sparked controversy. After all, his statistics are not impressive, his performance is not outstanding, and his attendance rate is only 9 games, the lowest among all 10 starters. However, he has now proven himself and demonstrated his dominance. Facing a flood of doubts, in the match against the third-ranked Shanxi team in the CBA league, Guo Ailun delivered an astonishing performance, achieving a super double-double with 12 points and 10 assists in just three quarters, completely finding his peak form. Despite Shanxi's strong strength as the third-ranked team in the league, Guo Ailun remained calm and led Guangzhou to compete with them until the last moment. If they couldn't win, it would really be due to a lack of hard power. Although their power may not be enough, Guo Shao's statistics are guaranteed. The ironclad fact proves that he is still a very capable superstar. In fact, no matter how good the defense of the opposing team is in the league, it is impossible to stop Guo Ailun. Is Zhang Ning's defense from the Shanxi team not good? He also has skills, but he was mercilessly dominated by Guo Ailun. It's not that they defended poorly,…

After the start of the 25 season, the first major NBA trade has been completed. According to renowned journalist Shams, the Warriors and Nets have reached a significant 5-for-2 trade. The Warriors sent away Melton, two-way player Bickman, and three second-round draft picks to the Nets in exchange for Schroder and one second-round pick. The main players involved in this trade are Melton and Schroder. Melton is injured and unable to provide immediate assistance to the Warriors, prompting the management to quickly act and acquire Schroder. Schroder is a star-level guard for the Nets and also their top player. This transaction signifies that the Nets' "supermarket" is open for business, and it is expected that before the trade deadline, the Nets will trade away several core team members and officially enter a rebuilding phase. Melton actually performed well this season, but unfortunately suffered a serious left knee ligament injury, requiring surgery that ended his season. In the six games he played, Melton averaged 10.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.2 steals. Before his injury, he was also a valuable bench player. However, the Warriors' goal is to compete for the championship, and trading him away was a wise decision. Moreover, the Warriors are expected to make more significant moves before the trade deadline. Schroder is the absolute core of the Nets. The Warriors managed to obtain Schroder and other trade assets by giving up a substitute player who is out for the season and three second-round picks, which is indeed a great deal. Schroder has played 23 games for…
