On January 12, 2025, the 30th round of the CBA regular season continued with several exciting matchups, some of which were not only dramatic but also made the rankings for this season even more tense. Guangdong managed to narrowly defeat Beikong with a last-minute buzzer-beater, while Liaoning and Xinjiang failed to maintain their leads in crucial moments, ultimately losing to Qingdao and Nanjing respectively. This round of games added a lot of suspense to the competition between teams, especially on the leaderboard, where there is only a difference of 1 point between the 2nd and 8th places, making the situation extremely complex. In the home game against Beikong, Guangdong demonstrated their resilience and ability to seize key moments. The entire match was full of ups and downs, with Guangdong relying on Xu Xin's crucial goal in the final moments to narrowly win against Beikong with a score of 99-98, continuing their winning streak. At the start of the game, Beikong quickly took the lead, particularly showing activity on the offensive end. However, Guangdong gradually regained their rhythm in the critical moments, especially with Xu Jie's outstanding performance, allowing Guangdong to maintain a slight advantage in the last quarter. The climax of the game occurred in the last minute. With Guangdong's defense slackening, Beikong tied the score with Tres' three-pointer. Just as the game entered its final second, Xu Xin calmly made a layup to deliver the final shot of the game, helping Guangdong secure a victory over Beikong by a margin of just 1 point. In another highly anticipated match,…

Guangdong Southern Tigers' New Foreign Player! Standing at Only 180cm, Making His CBA Debut Finally, there's news about Guangdong Southern Tigers' foreign players. According to authoritative domestic media reports, Guangdong Southern Tigers Club has made an offer for foreign player Darrun Russell. Russell stands only 180cm tall, is relatively thin, and weighs only 75kg; fortunately, Russell is quite young, born in 1998. Russell played for Pinar Club in the Turkish Super League this season, participating in 14 games with an average of 16.1 points and 4.7 assists per game, a two-point shooting percentage of 49.5%, a three-point shooting percentage of only 30.2%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 81%. From Russell's data, it can be seen that he does not have a strong scoring ability, poor shooting, low three-point shooting percentage, and is mainly a small guard who breaks through. It's difficult for short foreign players to survive in the CBA, such as Felder, and Walters, who was once signed by Guangdong. Whether on the offensive or defensive end, small foreign players will be targeted. Moreover, Russell doesn't even have Walters' scoring ability, especially in terms of three-pointers. Furthermore, Russell has never played in the CBA before, so it can be said that Guangdong Southern Tigers are likely to have signed another subpar player again. What's wrong with Zhu Fangyu's vision? Is Guangdong Southern Tigers Club short on funds? Look at how many foreign players they've signed this season: Barton, Bazley, Jilunwate, Arms, Morland, and now Russell. It is understood that Barton and Morland are not cheap. After all…

Both Down by 1 Point! Guangdong's Buzzer-Beater Against Liaoning is Foiled, Culprit Yang Ming Far Inferior to Du Feng Should Step Down On January 12th, Beijing time, both Liaoning and Guangdong were down by 1 point in the final moments of their respective games, but the following plays highlighted the biggest difference between the two teams. Yang Ming concedes defeat, truly falling short of Du Feng, and should step down gracefully. Both Liaoning and Guangdong fought their opponents until the end, but the results of the games were different. Liaoning narrowly lost to Qingdao by 3 points, suffering a dramatic comeback in the final moments, while Guangdong narrowly defeated Beikong with a 1-point buzzer-beater. In fact, during the crucial moments of the game, both teams were only 1 point apart, but when they were both down by 1 point, the differences in the ensuing offensive rounds revealed the distinctions between them. With 24 seconds left in the game, Liaoning trailed Qingdao 100:101. They called a timeout, but what tactics did they return with? There were no tactics at all, just holding the ball for time and letting Ferg push from the backcourt to the frontcourt before directly taking on the defense himself. What kind of arrangement is this? You don't even need a coach, do you? Isn't it the same tactic for the players to play themselves? After the inbound pass, it was still Ferg pushing the ball all the way, so what's the difference? Everyone knew you were going to play like this. Sure enough, Ferg's shot missed everything,…

On January 12th, Beijing time, the 30th round of CBA regular season continued, and according to the schedule, Guangdong men's basketball team welcomed the challenge of Beikong men's basketball team at home at 19:35. Currently, Guangdong men's basketball team ranks 8th with 18 wins and 11 losses, while Beikong men's basketball team is temporarily ranked 10th with 15 wins and 13 losses. This game is very important for both teams, as Guangdong men's basketball team is determined to win six consecutive victories, while Beikong men's basketball team also needs a victory to stop their decline. Before the start of the game, Coach Du also received several pieces of good news. First of all, Xu Jie, the ace guard of Guangdong men's basketball team, has recovered well from some minor injuries. During the absence of Hu Mingxuan, Xu Jie has been the first to play in most games, and he is also the focus of the opponent's double-teaming. Many times, Xu Jie falls to the ground due to fighting for the ball. Therefore, his eye socket was previously swollen, his abdomen was injured, and his thigh had a slight strain. However, Xu Jie is young and has recovered well, so he can still play healthily against Beikong. Secondly, Xu Jie continues to sit firmly in the first place in the backcourt of the South District in the second week of CBA All-Star voting, and his votes have approached 500,000. According to this trend, Xu Jie will steadily become the starting guard of the South District. The second piece of good news…

Guangdong faces Tongxi with double foreigners against four, can the double foreigners save the day? The second match between Guangdong and Tongxi has everyone asking, "Can Guangdong win again?" Let's first look back at the previous battle where Guangdong defeated Tongxi with a stunning score of 128 to 88, a momentum that was more ferocious than a jet plane! However, this game is not simple. There have been some changes in Guangdong's lineup, especially in the foreign aid configuration, which has already "shrunk significantly." The focus of this game is undoubtedly the foreign aid. Although Jilunwater and Morand have performed well in recent games, how can two people deal with Tongxi's four foreign aids? Look at Jilunwater; he has almost become Guangdong's "Iron Man" in recent games, playing over 40 minutes each time, as if he were about to move the basketball court home. However, playing too much can also be tiring, and physical exhaustion is a major issue. Although he is in good form, whether he can continue to withstand the pressure remains questionable. As for Morand, although he is strong in defense and rebounds, he is facing four rotating foreign aids. Whether he can continue to hold on is still uncertain. However, there is also good news for Guangdong - Du Runwang's return! Honestly, this is really great news for Guangdong. Awang is an outside shooter, with three-point shots being his forte, and his defense is not bad either. Although Zhang Haojia and Erfei's performances are sometimes inconsistent, Awang's return has made Guangdong's outside firepower even stronger! Whether…

On January 12th, Beijing time, the CBA regular season continued with Guangdong men's basketball team playing against Beikong team at home. Beikong men's basketball team has not performed well this season, currently ranking tenth in the league standings, and recently suffered two consecutive losses. The team has a luxurious lineup, but the results are average, and the input-output ratio is not cost-effective. Min Lulei has some responsibility, and this championship coach is also under considerable pressure. In the last game, despite a frantic comeback in the final quarter, they were still unable to defeat Liaoning team. Even with injuries to Riele and Zou Yuchen, it can still be seen that the team's lineup depth is astonishing. In fact, Chen Guohao played well, and Min Lulei should give him more opportunities. Liu Xiaoyu contributed little, and it would be better to give Lin Tingyan more opportunities. Guangdong men's basketball team has recently won five consecutive victories, but the problem of Xu Jie playing too long has not been resolved. Zhu Fangyu is also actively looking for a small foreign aid, and easing the pressure on Xu Jie is the top priority for the team now. It seems that there are rumors that things have been negotiated, let's wait and see, and look forward to both sides having an exciting performance. After the start of the game, Du Runwang took the lead with a hook shot to score, and Treles immediately responded with a three-pointer. Guangdong team did not start well, with a low shooting percentage, while Beikong's Zhang Fan and Liu…

The second phase of this season's CBA regular season is in full swing, with a fierce battle between the strong Guangsha men's basketball team and the dark horse Shanxi men's basketball team. After four quarters of intense competition, Brown, along with Sun Minghui, Hu Jinqiu, and others led Guangsha to a decisive victory over Shanxi with a score of 111-78. It is noteworthy that although the dark horse Shanxi team is ranked second in the standings, there seems to be a huge gap between them and Guangsha in every position. Although Guangsha fell to Shanxi's main inside player Liu Chuanxing in their last encounter, Wang Bo did not heavily rely on the big foreign aid Boban in this game and easily defeated Shanxi by a large margin. It can be said that in this game, Guangsha men's basketball team, ranked first in the standings, demonstrated the team's strong strength and excellent tactical execution. Wang Bo's tactic of double-teaming the ball-handler directly rendered Shanxi's dual foreign aid Goodwin and Diawara ineffective. On the other hand, Guangsha's local main players Sun Minghui, Hu Jinqiu, and others continued to perform efficiently. Moreover, Guangsha's main foreign aid Brown continued to play at the level of a top-tier foreign aid in the league. Defensively, Guangsha effectively trapped Shanxi's ball-handler, causing 28 turnovers. Despite being seen by many fans as the biggest dark horse this season, Shanxi was still unable to break through the more balanced suppression from Guangsha in every position. After achieving 16 consecutive home victories, Wang Bo is rumored to continue strengthening the…

Speaking of Weems, many fans may first think of his legendary journey with the Guangdong Southern Tigers. Although he may not be the strongest foreign player in history, he has played a very important role during his years with the Guangdong team. You should know that his joining was really well-timed; without him, the history of the Guangdong team might have been written differently. Let's start with when Weems joined the Guangdong team. In 2018, the Guangdong team faced a foreign player vacancy and urgently needed to strengthen their lineup. Coincidentally, Weems had just been cut by the Zhejiang team at that time, becoming the "firefighting foreign aid" for the Guangdong team. Back then, Weems still held some prejudice against the CBA, thinking it wasn't a high-level league. After joining the Guangdong team, his perspective began to change. The atmosphere of the Guangdong team, the support of his teammates, and the operation of the club gradually made him regard this place as his "second home." He signed a four-year contract, which can be said to be the official beginning of the bond between the Guangdong team and Weems. At that time, Weems, along with Marshan and Beasley, formed the trio of foreign players. This combination was almost invincible on the CBA court, defeating almost all opponents. Especially the frontline partnership between Weems and Marshan, their chemistry was unparalleled. Marshan played aggressively while Weems was flexible and versatile. Their cooperation put great pressure on the opponents, even leading to changes in the league's foreign player rules, from the original two foreign…

The reason for Guangdong Men's Basketball Team's comeback against Qingdao is not just strength, but finally understood. Netizens have pointed out incisively and vividly that in this game, Xu Xin's performance completely surpassed Yang Hanshen. In fact, Yang Hanshen should not have played against Morant with five fouls; otherwise, Coach Du would not have thought of Xu Xin. He and Bazley locked down Qingdao's offense both inside and outside. Actually, Coach Du would definitely use Xu Xin in the last quarter because Xu Xin's physical fitness can only last for one quarter. A center with absolute height can easily restrict Yang Hanshen, whose wingspan and jumping ability are slightly inferior. Coach Du trusts Wang Shaojie too much; if he had used Xu Xin earlier, they could have won more games. In fact, Xu Xin's skills are not bad either. Coach Du should not blame young players for making mistakes and scold them openly. Please use Xu Xin more in the future; he has a height advantage. Last time, it was because Morand committed too many fouls that Xu Xin was sent to play, and unexpectedly, Xu Xin became famous overnight, achieving success without seeking it. How can Xu Xin also be selected for the national training team? The level difference was not far, but he just couldn't perform. Most importantly, he learned a lot from special training in the United States this year, which the national team cannot teach basic skills. Xu Xin also won against Yang Hanshen last time, but his physical fitness is indeed a problem. Both Xu…

CBA This Season, Up to Now, 4 Native Players Who Can Be Called "Iron Man", See Who They Are The CBA season has been full of excitement, and by the 28th round, the "Iron Men" have shown performances that are truly impressive! Some players average 40 minutes per game, some have explosive statistics that rival small foreign players, and others lead their teams to victory with a tough playing style. Against the backdrop of adjusted foreign player policies, these native players not only withstand the intensity of the games but also contribute to their team's victories with sweat, earning them the title of "Iron Men" without a doubt. However, as we count these relentless figures, we can't help but ask: Is being relentless something to admire or a sign of helplessness? This season of the CBA has already reached the 28th round, and the battles for championship contention and ranking positions are becoming increasingly fierce. At this stage, Wang Ruize from Qingdao, Xu Jie from Guangdong, Zhang Ning from Shanxi, and Gao Shiyang from Shandong have all written chapters of "Iron Men" in their unique ways. They have contributed key data and performances for their teams, becoming the focus of fan discussions. Who is the first Iron Man? It must be Wang Ruize, the core of Qingdao. This 29-year-old forward has played 22 games this season, averaging an astonishing 40.9 minutes of playing time, ranking first in the league. Simply put, he is almost playing the entire game! What's even more remarkable is that he not only endures high-intensity play…
