On the night of December 28th, a CBA regular season game concluded with Beijing Men's Basketball Team securing a victory over Nanjing Team at home with a score of 110-109. The team was filled with joy after the win. However, one individual who did not participate in the match due to rest became the focus of media attention during the post-game interview. This person was Zhou Qi, a senior figure in the locker room. Despite being exempt from playing and having unlimited rest rights as the center for Beijing Men's Basketball Team, Zhou Qi appeared in the team's locker room after the game. Looking slightly thinner and still in the process of recovery, Zhou Qi became the main subject of the interview. He stated, "This illness has been quite severe. Although I am no longer feverish, I still need some time to recover." Recently, Zhou Qi has missed five consecutive games due to influenza. Adding to this, he had previously sat out for an extended period at the beginning of the season due to a foot injury. As a result, Zhou Qi has only played in seven regular-season games for Beijing Men's Basketball Team this season. In his average 24.6 minutes on the court, he contributes 12.9 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 2 blocks per game. Zhou Qi's situation is severe, but so is Xiao Long's. Xiao Long, also known as Wells, was severely underestimated! On December 28th, during the late-night battle where Liaoning defeated Xinjiang 115-89 at home, Wells scored 50 points, 2 rebounds, and 6 assists with 17 out…

Currently, the CBA regular season is in full swing, with exciting matches that are hard to keep up with. During the offseason, the Beijing men's basketball team became the biggest beneficiary, spending a huge sum of money to acquire Zhou Qi, the top domestic star in the CBA, and subsequently securing an All-Star-level guard, Chen Yingjun. It can be said that the goal for the new season is very clear: to win the championship. Indeed, in the first stage of the competition, Beijing showed great competitiveness and even managed to stabilize at the top of the CBA standings. However, recently, Beijing's performance has been average, suffering two consecutive defeats before this. On one hand, Beijing's three foreign players have faced targeted defense, making it difficult for them to score or connect the team as effectively as before. On the other hand, Zhou Qi has recently failed to provide support for the team. It must be said that Zhou Qi's form has significantly declined since joining Beijing this season. So far, Zhou Qi has only played 7 games for Beijing, with his average statistics dropping to 12.9 points and 6.6 rebounds. This is unacceptable, both in terms of statistics and playing time. Especially now, Zhou Qi's body seems to be made of glass. Last season, during the playoff match between Guangdong and Liaoning, due to a confrontation with Morand, Zhou Qi's back injury recurred, which directly caused Guangdong's efforts for the entire season to go down the drain. The back injury also kept Zhou Qi out for 177 days. After joining…

This season has been a string of bad luck for the Beijing men's basketball team, with misfortunes piling up one after another. Barely recovering from the previous game's injury woes, they now face new challenges as their core player, Zhou Qi, falls ill! To make matters worse, foreign player Ray also misses due to illness, dealing a severe blow to the team. Currently in the midst of an injury wave, Beijing is not in the best position and must desperately adjust tactics to compete. The game is heart-wrenching to watch, with concerns about whether they can withstand the strong challenge from Shandong. The biggest issue for Beijing is Zhou Qi's health. As the pillar of the team's interior, his absence is a catastrophic blow. Zhou Qi's height provides a barrier under the basket, and his defensive presence deters opponents. However, he is currently sick, with lingering coughs despite recovering from a cold. It will take time for him to fully recover, leaving doubts about his return to peak condition. Without Zhou Qi, other players must compensate for interior defense and rebounding, putting immense pressure on the lineup. Similarly, Ray's absence significantly impacts Beijing's offense, necessitating adjustments, especially in fast breaks and outside shooting. Coach Xu Limin, a seasoned veteran, faces a daunting task with such absences, as simple tactical adjustments cannot solve these issues. The team's lineup integrity is severely weakened, adding to the difficulties. Zeng Fanbo, now the most watched player, has shown remarkable improvement since returning from the national team, but Coach Xu has been cautious with his…

The landscape of the CBA has changed dramatically overnight after the conclusion of five matches in the 22nd round of the regular season. Guangdong team was defeated by Zhejiang team at home with a big score, while Beijing team lost to Shandong team away. Since Beijing's defeat against Shandong, the three major championship contenders in the league - Guangdong, Liaoning, and Beijing - have all been pushed out of the top five. Liaoning team, in particular, was dragged down by Beijing from sixth place to eighth on the leaderboard. This season, there have been subtle changes in the CBA situation. Shanxi team's strong rise has added another contender to the championship race in the new season. However, at the beginning of the season, Guangdong team, due to poor performance of foreign players and other reasons, had already fallen out of the competition for the top four. But Beijing and Liaoning, these two traditional strong teams, performed outstandingly in the first stage of the event, steadily occupying the top four positions on the leaderboard, and even once occupied the top spot. It must be said that both Beijing and Liaoning teams were regarded as hot favorites to win the championship this season. Even without Zhou Qi, many other teams still dare not underestimate Guangdong team. Let's start with Guangdong team. In this match, Guangdong team started well and once took a smooth lead of 10 points. However, after Zhejiang team launched a fierce attack in the second half, Guangdong team failed to make an immediate effective adjustment. Facing Zhejiang team's tidal-like…

This game was a complete domination by Guangsha over Sichuan, with a score of 108 to 83! It was an absolute disaster for Sichuan, leaving them with no room for counterattack. Guangsha played with ease while Sichuan was left with frustration and powerlessness. Before the game even started, everyone expected Guangsha to win easily, but no one anticipated such a large margin of victory. The gap was so significant that it left Sichuan with no face. The disparity in strength between the two teams was evident from the start. Guangsha played with incredible speed and intensity, not giving Sichuan any breathing room. They opened up an 11-point lead in the first quarter, making it seem like Sichuan hadn't even entered the game yet, completely disrupting their rhythm. Look at Guangsha's Barry Brown Jr., who is a versatile scorer, assist-maker, and steal artist. He scored 23 points, had 11 assists, and made 8 steals. This performance was truly impressive, leading Guangsha to a decisive victory without any suspense. As for Sun Minghui, everyone knows he is always calm. In the game, he was the pillar of Guangsha. Especially in the second quarter, after hitting a three-pointer, he completed a beautiful 2+1, securing the lead. Sun Minghui is not a high-scoring player, but his ability to control the pace and score in crucial moments always stabilizes the situation for Guangsha. Looking at Sichuan, they had Hunter scoring 22 points and Wang Yunzhang with 13 points, which was commendable, but against Guangsha's offensive onslaught, they were like paper shields. In the third quarter,…

Not long ago, Chinese men's basketball legend Sun Yue held a jersey retirement ceremony, with his No. 9 jersey slowly rising at the home court of the Beijing Control Men's Basketball Team. Of course, many fans believe that the Beijing Men's Basketball Team should have retired Sun Yue's jersey, after all, he brought the championship to the team and helped establish a championship dynasty for the Beijing Men's Basketball Team. It should be so, but because of the complicated personal grievances between Sun Yue and the management of the Beijing Men's Basketball Team, it is believed that this is also the key factor why the Beijing Men's Basketball Team did not retire Sun Yue's jersey. It must be said that Sun Yue is one of the best guards in the history of Chinese men's basketball. He has an absolute height advantage among guards, standing over 2 meters tall. Similarly, his blocking ability is at the level of an interior player, and Sun Yue has also logged into the NBA and won a championship with the Lakers.‌ After returning from the NBA, Sun Yue joined the Beijing Men's Basketball Team and became the second-highest scorer on the team after the foreign players. His joining also helped the Beijing Men's Basketball Team establish a dynasty. However, later Sun Yue and the Beijing Men's Basketball Team did not get along well, and even the Beijing Men's Basketball Team once shelved Sun Yue, wasting some of his peak years. Eventually, in the twilight of his career, she joined the Beijing Control Men's Basketball Team.…

As of the 20th round of the CBA schedule, Beijing Men's Basketball Team has a total record of 15 wins and 5 losses, ranking fifth in the standings. This performance does not match the luxurious lineup of the Beijing team. The five games that Beijing has lost so far were against Jilin, Tianjin, Shanxi, and Guangdong men's basketball teams. Among these four teams, Jilin and Tianjin are at the lower levels of the league. The fact that Beijing lost to them indicates that the team's performance is extremely unstable, and they do not have a sure win even against weaker opponents. Out of the 15 games that Beijing won, six were close victories, failing to demonstrate the aggressiveness expected of a strong team. What exactly is going on with Beijing Men's Basketball Team? Why are they struggling this season? It all boils down to these five reasons, and I'll only discuss the key points. Reason One: Xu Limin's Coaching Style is Too Gentle In basketball, exerting pressure on referees is also a strategy that can change their refereeing tendencies to some extent. However, Coach Xu rarely protests during games and seldom shows emotional expressions. As a result, Chen Yingjun, the core organizer of the perimeter, and Jermaine, the main offensive point of the perimeter, often suffer physical harm from opponents and do not benefit from favorable calls. Reason Two: The Frontcourt is Too Easily Targeted On the offensive end, Fan Ziming, Qiu Tian, and Solomon do not aim for mid-range shots when they get the ball, and even if they…

Recently, Xirelijiang, who is studying in Serbia, posted a photo with former NBA giant Boban and said that he has been contacted by a CBA team. Boban Marjanovic was born in Zajecar in 1988. He is a Serbian basketball player who plays as a center and stands at an impressive height of 224 cm. Boban's basketball career began in the Serbian Super League, where he won the MVP award for three consecutive seasons. During the 2014-15 season, Marjanovic grabbed a total of 256 rebounds and recorded 16 double-doubles, setting new records in both categories in the EuroLeague. After entering the NBA in 2015, he started his career with the Spurs and later played for teams such as the Pistons, Clippers, and 76ers. However, fans remember him most fondly for his time with the Mavericks. One of Boban's most memorable performances was in 2018 when the Clippers hosted the Nuggets. In just 18 minutes on the court, he went 6-for-8 from the field, scoring 18 points and grabbing 8 rebounds. In the second game of the 2020 playoffs between the Mavericks and the Clippers, Boban scored 13 points, grabbed 9 rebounds, and had 1 assist with a 75% shooting percentage. In the 7 minutes he replaced Porzingis, he efficiently scored 10 points and grabbed 8 rebounds, dominating and bullying Clippers' center Harrell. There are many players over 220 cm tall, but Boban's success lies in his professionalism and diligence. He takes advantage of many rest periods to train. However, due to the popularity of small-ball in the NBA, with the court…

Translation of the content: Recently, rumors about Zhou Qi and Beijing Shougang have been like a stone thrown into a lake, causing ripples. People are speculating whether this tall and long-armed interior powerhouse missed key games due to conflicts with the team. However, the truth is often more complicated than rumors and more worthy of our exploration. Zhou Qi, who has been a force on the CBA court, has recently been rumored to be in conflict with Beijing Shougang, leading to his absence from several important games. For a time, various guesses and discussions came flooding in, and some even began to question Zhou Qi's professional attitude and dedication. The truth is often hidden behind the mist, waiting for us to uncover its veil. According to Xu Limin, the head coach of Beijing Shougang, Zhou Qi's absence was not due to a conflict with the team but because of his severe health issues. It turns out that Zhou Qi has recently been hit by a cold, with symptoms such as fever and vomiting coming one after another, causing his physical condition to plummet rapidly. In this situation, to protect the player's health, Xu Limin had to make the difficult decision to let Zhou Qi miss the game. This decision, although it made the team lose an important scoring point and defensive pillar, also reflected the coaching staff's emphasis and care for the players' health. Looking back at Zhou Qi's performance this season, we can easily see his importance in Beijing Shougang's lineup. In the 7 games he played, Zhou Qi…

With the deepening of the CBA league, teams are striving for playoff spots. Beijing Shougang, a traditional powerhouse in the league, has had an inconsistent performance this season, especially in the selection and use of foreign players, which has been a focus of external attention. Recently, the fourth foreign aid of Beijing Shougang has emerged - James Nunnally, the former small forward of the NBA New Orleans Pelicans. The arrival of this 34-year-old veteran has become a hot topic among fans and media, as to whether he can be the "timely rain" to help the team out of its difficulties. James Nunnally is a small forward who has also shone on the NBA court. Although his career has not reached the top level in the NBA, his rich game experience and versatile technical characteristics have made him a sought-after player by many teams. Especially on the offensive end, Nunnally not only possesses excellent outside shooting ability but can also create threats under the basket. His arrival will undoubtedly provide more offensive options for Beijing Shougang. However, age is an issue that Nunnally cannot avoid. At 34, whether his physical condition and endurance can adapt to the high-intensity games of the CBA is the biggest variable. Moreover, the transition from European and American leagues to the CBA involves not only differences in game rhythm and rules but also requires adapting to new teammates and game environments. Whether Nunnally can quickly integrate into the team and perform at the expected level remains to be seen. Beijing Shougang has been controversial in its…
