"Agreement Reached! Exposed "Hundred Million Mr." Agrees to Join AC Milan! Genius Midfielder Expected to Rapidly Reinforce" Recently, there has been a heated discussion on whether Tomori should leave AC Milan. This question has turned the winter transfer window into a complex chess game for the Rossoneri. Some argue that Tomori's state is not as stable as when he first arrived in Serie A, and his commanding presence as a central defender has gradually faded, leading to doubts from the club management. However, others counter that Milan's defensive system built around him has operated for two seasons and cannot be easily changed. The decision to let Tomori go or stay presents the team with its first challenge. But this is not the whole story. As the season progresses past the halfway mark, Milan's seemingly impressive results reveal several underlying concerns: reliance on midfield creativity, a lack of diversity in attack, and a squad depth that struggles to cope with the demands of multiple competitions. The key now is how to enhance competitiveness through a series of choices in the winter window without harming the team's long-term development. Every move in this game requires careful consideration. Let's start with Tomori. He was once the cornerstone of AC Milan's defense, becoming a fan favorite for his excellent interceptions and positioning in crucial matches. However, the winds seem to have shifted, with RedBird Group willing to cash in on him, even expressing satisfaction with Juventus' offer of 30 million euros. But is it really worth it? The figure of 30 million is not…

The Mavericks Decide to Trade! Thompson, Stunned! A Big Mistake of $50 Million in 3 Years TA reporter: The Mavericks are willing to send Gafford in trade negotiations... Some may ask, what does this have to do with Thompson? This is because the Mavericks hope to exchange Gafford for an influential wing player to enhance their perimeter defense. So far, the Mavericks rank 7th in the West with a record of 23 wins and 19 losses, with a defensive efficiency of 111.5 ranking 11th in the league. During this period, Gafford averaged 11.7 points, 6 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.5 blocks in just 20 minutes per game, with a shooting percentage as high as 70.5%. In fact, last season, the Mavericks had a defensive wing named Xiaoqiong Jones, who took on the important task of leading the defense against opponents' offensive arrows, averaging 8.6 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1 assist in the regular season, and starting all playoff games with an average of 9.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1 block, contributing greatly to the team's advancement to the finals. Of course, it's not that the Mavericks gave up Xiaoqiong Jones for anyone; it was mainly because he wanted to leave. At that time, he had just joined the Clippers for 3 years at 30million,whileThompsonhadjustjoinedDallasfor3yearsat30 million, while Thompson had just joined Dallas for 3 years at 30million,whileThompsonhadjustjoinedDallasfor3yearsat50 million, achieving a seamless connection. Therefore, not many people felt sorry for the departure of this Finals hero at that time. However, this season's practice has proven that for the Mavericks, Xiaoqiong…

In the NBA, it's common for technically skilled players to receive top-tier salaries. However, in the CBA, the criteria for top-tier salaries can be somewhat perplexing. Some clubs offer them to veterans, while others pursue players whose fame exceeds their actual abilities. Examples include Guangzhou's Guo Ailun, Beijing's Zhou Qi, Xinjiang's Zhao Rui, and Guangdong's Hu Mingxuan, all of whom possess talent but have low attendance rates due to injuries. Beijing's Fan Ziming and Beikong's Shen Zijie have performances that fall far short of expectations. However, when it comes to the worst-performing top-tier player, it is undoubtedly Ge Zhaobao from Shanxi Team! This season, Shanxi Team has become a top-tier powerhouse, ranking in the top three and capable of contending for the championship! Ge Zhaobao averages only 13.2 minutes per game, scoring 3.7 points and 2.5 rebounds, with a shooting percentage of 44% and a three-point percentage of 22%. Given such performance, Ge Zhaobao certainly does not deserve his top-tier salary. Ge Zhaobao's contract is not insignificant; during the 2022 offseason, Shanxi Team offered him a five-year Class D top-tier contract with an annual salary of 6 million yuan! At 33 years old, this lengthy top-tier contract will not expire until the summer of 2027. This season, Ge Zhaobao has essentially been marginalized, with his biggest issue being defense, and now Shanxi Team has a big center in Liu Chuanxing. Of course, Ge Zhaobao is a meritorious veteran of Shanxi Team, having played for them since the 11-12 season, making this his 12th season! Shanxi Team giving him such a…

Alphonso Davies, regarded as a top-tier defender by many, has made a name for himself in the world of football over the years, establishing both his value and abilities. However, as his contract with Bayern Munich is set to expire at the end of this season's break, it has become apparent that Davies finds himself in an awkward situation. Seeking a substantial pay raise, he began pressuring Bayern Munich, initially spreading word multiple times about his desire to join Real Madrid to fulfill his dreams. However, what followed was unexpected; after a year of public speculation about joining Real Madrid, Davies' true intentions were finally revealed. According to German media reports, Davies is set to renew his contract with Bayern. The reason is straightforward: Bayern can offer him a top-tier contract, whereas Real Madrid cannot afford such a high salary. Consequently, Davies is willing to extend his stay with Bayern. This revelation makes it clear that Davies' so-called "dream of joining the royal family" was merely a pretense. He merely expressed a desire to move to Real Madrid publicly to secure a lucrative contract. Now, his true intentions have been fully exposed, and Real Madrid indeed could not match the salary demands of the 24-year-old player at the peak of his career, ultimately having to let him go. However, Davies' contract renewal also poses significant pressure on Bayern Munich. With the team's performance declining and its influence waning, top players are less inclined to join the Bundesliga giants. To retain Davies and upcoming talent like Jamal Musiala, Bayern will have…

On January 20th, Beijing time, the Lakers suffered a heavy blow as Reeves went down in the final four minutes, with LeBron James losing his third superstar, and details of his exit were concerning. The Los Angeles Lakers suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the Los Angeles Clippers in this season's first matchup between the two teams. The Lakers were thoroughly dominated throughout the game, trailing by as much as 26 points at one point, leaving no hope for a victory, ultimately losing by 15 points. More importantly, in the last four minutes of the game, the Lakers' misfortunes compounded as their core guard, Reeves, painfully fell to the ground while vying for a rebound, limping off the court. This was a truly desperate scene for the Lakers, as they had already lost Russell, and now Reeves was also out. During a scramble for an offensive rebound, Reeves collided head-on with the opposing player, Coffey. As a result of his height and weight disadvantage, Reeves was brutally knocked to the ground. Since he initiated the collision, the referee immediately called a defensive foul on him. Reeves committed the foul, and at that moment, his left foot appeared to twist at a suspected 90-degree angle, forcing him to limp off the court. Another detail emerged: after falling, Reeves could no longer stand on both feet. He first clutched his left knee before hopping back to the bench on one leg. Upon reaching the bench, Reeves continued to receive treatment in obvious pain. From these details and footage, it appears…

He is known as the "Chinese Great Wall" and "Oriental Giant" in the sports world. He has dedicated everything to Chinese basketball, enduring serious injuries yet persisting for many years. Surprisingly, he faced much criticism after serving as the chairman of the Basketball Association, ultimately resigning from his position. It turns out that what Bai Yansong said was correct; now, Yao Ming has already embarked on another path. Yao Ming's name is well-known not only in our country but also abroad. He is the pride of the basketball world and a true "superstar" in the basketball realm. His birth foretold that his life would be anything but ordinary, inheriting his parents' extraordinary height advantage perfectly. His upbringing and training were done with utmost care, ensuring he had sufficient nutrition by living frugally so that he could have enough milk every day. In school, he loved learning but started playing basketball due to his superior height, which was both an advantage and perceived as unusual by others. Initially, his parents encouraged him to practice basketball merely for academic advancement, never intending for him to pursue it as a career. They understood the challenges and hardships involved in this path. Initially, he was not highly regarded, but as his height continued to increase, he successfully joined his hometown's youth team for training. Years later, he became a member of the Shanghai Youth Men's Basketball Team, officially starting his professional career. Initially, his performance was not outstanding, but as the number of games increased, he gradually found his rhythm, eventually leading the Shanghai…

On the night of January 19, the fickleness of fans was vividly reflected in Liaoning Men's Basketball Team. Netizens keenly pointed out that Zhao Jiwei's performance in recent games has been as erratic as a fly, and it was finally good not to see Fu Hao in this game. If Fu Hao had played, the losses would have been even greater. The fourth quarter always featured the same four players, with only one offensive point from Fergie, and Yang Ming's tactics were truly unimpressive. It seems that Yang Ming is simply not good enough; previously, the team relied on domestic reinforcements to overwhelm opponents, but this year, with the loosening of foreign player restrictions, the focus has shifted to tactics, exposing their weaknesses. Zhao Jiwei's poor form should mean less playing time, as it significantly affects the team's overall performance! Some individual players can be the backbone of the team, but they are not the sole support! The coach's reliance on certain players is akin to an addiction! Yang Ming should go home for the New Year; Guo's resources have been exhausted, and most of the players have been out of form since the second stage ended, showing no signs of recovery. It seems that the coaching position at Liaoning Men's Basketball Team is not suitable for you after all. Currently, Liaoning's offense relies heavily on pick-and-roll plays, and if these don't work, they resort to holding the ball and forcing shots. Zhejiang Chouzhou Men's Basketball Team had a three-point shooting rate of 50% (17 out of 34), while Liaoning…

On January 20th, Beijing time, the CBA regular season is still in full swing. A clear battle between the strong and the weak sees two championship teams face off, with Sichuan hosting Shanghai. Before the game, Sichuan had only won 8 games and ranked fourth from the bottom, making it just a matter of time before they were out of playoff contention. They had even lost to the bottom-placed Fujian, seemingly adopting a passive stance. On the other hand, Shanghai had secured their playoff spot with an impressive 16-game winning streak but had recently hit a snag with consecutive losses to Liaoning and Shanxi. This match was undoubtedly crucial for Shanghai as they aimed to continue their northern campaign. After four quarters of play, Shanghai emerged victorious with a resounding 129-87 win over Sichuan. In terms of personnel, Sichuan's core player Samna was absent, leaving only Maric and Hunter as their foreign players, which essentially signaled a strategic withdrawal. However, in the first quarter, Sichuan played tenaciously, with Liu Guanshan scoring a three-pointer at the start, followed by Li Jinxiao adding more firepower. The local players contributed across the board, making it a tough fight against Shanghai. With Hunter's final shot going in, Sichuan trailed by only one point at 26-27. Shanghai began to exert themselves, with Li Hongquan and Wilson hitting back-to-back three-pointers to initially widen the gap. Despite Liu Guanshan's response, Li Tianrong's three-pointer extended the lead to double digits, forcing Sichuan to call a timeout. The two sides then engaged in a tug-of-war around a ten-point margin,…

On the night of January 19th, not only did Yang Ming lose face, but also the entire Liaoning men's basketball team! Netizens hotly debated and pointed out incisively and vividly: under the double foreign aid situation, Zhao Jiwei is just a mascot. Liaoning's first championship was with double foreign aids, Guo Ailun was the true main force, equivalent to an import player. The next three championships were all with single foreign aid, and Zhao Jiwei made significant contributions in the single foreign aid scenario because Liaoning had strong domestic players. Now, however, they are aging, and Zhao's performance has dropped too quickly, resulting in losses in the fourth quarter; this year, Liaoning has no chance. In fact, the fundamental problem is strength. It is an indisputable fact that Liaoning's strength is far less than before; they just dare not admit it. They must face reality and revitalize their prestige. They should correctly view the existing problems of the Liaoning team, such as incomplete personnel, an aging squad, and rigid tactics. Yang Ming is really the coach who loves to pretend the most. Liaoning was originally a team with an iron will, but ever since Zhang Gongzi and Yang Ming arrived, everything changed. It's not that Yang Ming is holding them back; with Liaoning's domestic players, they should have won more championships. This reminds me of Fan Zhiyi's words: "In the finals, he didn't play for even a minute, but he held the trophy with the most enthusiasm." It seems that the dual foreign aid system has led to increasingly fierce…

It's no wonder that Liaoning Men's Basketball Team suffered a crushing defeat to Zhejiang Chouzhou, as fans have revealed the inside story of the loss, with Yang Ming being fooled around. Netizens have keenly pointed out: "Now, Liaoning Men's Basketball Team's offensive play, have you seen how far it has been pressed? Ferg still had 6 seconds left when he got the ball beyond the three-point line to start the attack, and there were two rounds where the time ran out in the end. Zhao Jiwei passed the buck to Li Xiaoxu, who forced a three-pointer from beyond the arc, but missed completely. This rhythm is so pressing that it's like a trance, not looking for scoring opportunities anymore, so how can we score?" No matter how many open positions Weber runs out, no one passes him the ball! In name, it's a double foreign aid, but in reality, only one small foreign aid is used. The Liaoning locker room has already lost control, with no tactics to speak of, just individual plays. This year's recruitment and team management, Xiao Liu and Yang Ming are hard to blame. Yang Ming should have reflected on this long ago, but now it's too late. As a coach who won three consecutive championships, he has led the team to be lifeless and lacking in personnel, which is really digging a hole for himself! Now, in the CBA, there are four foreign players, and they can play two in the first three quarters, right? Zhao Lüzhou's three-point shooting level feels like it should be…
