Currently, the CBA regular season schedule has passed more than half, and now the playoff landscape is gradually becoming clear. The bottom few teams in the league have already fallen behind. However, the top eight teams in the league have similar records, and a slight slackening can result in being overtaken in the rankings. Teams that want to go further this season are still strengthening their squads through foreign players. Many teams are still looking for higher-quality foreign players, including Shanxi Men's Basketball and Guangsha Men's Basketball with outstanding records. Moreover, the reinforcement of foreign players has also become targeted. For example, Guangsha Men's Basketball, currently ranked first in the league, already has a top-notch team lineup, but they still introduced former NBA center Boban. Their purpose is very clear, which is to deal with Shanxi Men's Basketball's Liu Chuanxing, Beijing Men's Basketball's Zhou Qi, and other interior players. Of course, Liaoning Men's Basketball is still trying different big foreign players. They have been changing one after another in the selection of big foreign players, but they are getting worse and worse, including the previous Aqiu'er and Tu Lei. Now they have signed two foreign players, among which Patton has completed his team debut, performing moderately well, at least much better than Tu Lei, but he still needs to integrate with the team. Another big foreign player, Webber III, has also signed with Liaoning Men's Basketball until the end of this season and is about to return to the team. Whether Liaoning Men's Basketball can strengthen its weakest link at…

As the CBA regular season enters its final stretch, teams are beginning to clarify and pursue their seasonal goals, leading to a flurry of reinforcements. Zhejiang Guangsha signs giant Boban: Currently at the bottom of the regular season standings, Zhejiang Guangsha has signed the giant Boban. If he adapts well, he could become one of the strongest interior players in the league, giving Zhejiang Guangsha a chance to break Liaoning Men's Basketball's championship defense. Liaoning Men's Basketball and Guangdong Men's Basketball reinforcement dynamics: The reigning champion Liaoning Men's Basketball officially announced the signing of the fourth foreign aid forward Weber to patch up weaknesses. Guangdong Men's Basketball is interested in NBL scoring champion Bart, but fans doubt whether he can adapt to the CBA. Background of DeShawn Nichols and CBA interest: DeShawn Nichols, 22 years old, 193 cm tall, was once a five-star high school player in the United States, but lost his draft opportunity by choosing to join the NBA G League. He has performed in the G League, Rockets, and Timberwolves, but was recently cut by the Timberwolves. Despite being cut, DeShawn's athleticism and potential still attract the attention of many CBA teams. Possible CBA teams for DeShawn Nichols to join: Guangdong Men's Basketball urgently needs to solve the small foreign aid problem, and DeShawn may be an option. Xinjiang Men's Basketball needs a foreign aid that can break through in critical moments, which DeShawn fits. Beikong Men's Basketball has higher goals this season, but their current ranking does not meet expectations, so they have the opportunity to…

Guangdong Team's backcourt is "on the brink," who will step up? Guangdong Team's backcourt has never been as stretched as this season: Hu Mingxuan sits on the sidelines with an injury that has not yet healed, small foreign aid Les was directly excluded from the list, Xu Jie gritted his teeth to support a long average playing time of 36.4 minutes. What's worse, the league is in full swing, and other teams' small foreign aids are more reliable than each other, while Guangdong Team can only make do with double guards from local resources. Is this the hidden danger left by the Guangdong dynasty finally showing itself, or are they brewing a brilliant adjustment that makes people clap their hands in admiration? Crises often contain opportunities, but whether they can be seized depends on the next move. Speaking of the nightmare of Guangdong Team's backcourt, it starts with Hu Mingxuan's injury. This local core, whose average score and efficiency are better than Xu Jie, is known as the "backbone" of the team's backcourt. His three-point shooting percentage is close to 40%, not only an important piece for Guangdong to open up the defense, but also a good hand for the team to play fast transitions. And his sudden absence equals the loss of two major functions for Guangdong, the "output turret" and the "rhythm engine." The team had to let Xu Jie, who should have "shared the burden," take on the heavy beam, resulting in pressure rising rapidly, and the backcourt balance tilted overnight. Don't underestimate the impact of Hu…

According to veteran basketball media personality Zhou Peng, there are currently multiple teams in the CBA competing for guard Daejon Davis, who was recently cut by the Timberwolves. This includes two big-spending teams, Beijing Shougang and Shanghai Jiusi. Davis was heavily favored by former head coach Silas during his time with the Rockets but has been a marginal figure on other NBA teams, only playing in the G League. The reason he has won the favor of many CBA teams is twofold: firstly, his physique and playing style are well-suited to the CBA, and secondly, there is also some influence from his time with the Rockets. For Beijing Shougang, German can only shoot ultra-long three-pointers and lacks the ability to break through and create scoring opportunities. Davis' strong physique can perfectly complement German's shortcomings. As for Shanghai Jiusi, although Bradsoe has excellent ball control skills, his age is catching up with him, and they need to find a young and energetic guard to partner with Lofton to maintain the team's recent upward momentum. The competition for Davis has also driven up his value, as the CBA has entered an era of relying on foreign players, with state-owned capital-backed teams undoubtedly having more advantages. According to Liaoning media, Liaoning Men's Basketball's fourth foreign player, James Webb III, has arrived in China and will soon join the team. This means that Liaoning now has four foreign players. Whether they are effective or not is another matter; the most important thing is to ensure that there are enough personnel, allowing veterans and injured…

Originally, the Guangdong men's basketball team of the CBA League defeated the Shandong men's basketball team at home without any danger. This game successfully stabilized Guangdong's top eight ranking and ended Shandong's five consecutive victories in recent times. The victory of this game was a great boost for all the players of the Guangdong team, and they were very happy. However, there was one player who might not be so happy because of his poor performance, and he was even abandoned by Du Feng in the second half. This player is Wang Shaojie, the former No. 1 pick in the CBA. Wang Shaojie only played for 2 minutes and 50 seconds in this game, basically all in the first half. In the second quarter of the game, due to one of Wang Shaojie's defenses, it caused Du Feng's dissatisfaction. When he was substituted during the timeout, Du Feng scolded Wang Shaojie fiercely, and Wang Shaojie appeared very depressed. Since then, Wang Shaojie has basically been in a state of being abandoned, and he only got 0 points and 2 rebounds in this game. It is worth mentioning that recently, Wang Shaojie's playing time has not been stable due to physical reasons. This is his first appearance for Guangdong men's basketball team after the New Year. The previous game was against Liaoning team. At that time, Guangdong men's basketball team lost to the opponent, and Wang Shaojie also only got 0 points in that game, but that game was played for 14 minutes and got 0 points, which is not as…

The 2024/2025 CBA regular season is in full swing, with four matches played last night. Among them, Guangzhou lost 90-103 to Qingdao, suffering an 11-game losing streak and dropping to 17th place, while Qingdao rose to 5th. Jiangsu defeated Zhejiang 99-93 in a surprising comeback, sending Zhejiang to their third consecutive loss and falling to 4th place. Shanxi staged an incredible comeback against Xinjiang, winning 115-110, with both teams ranking 2nd and 3rd respectively. Fujian won in overtime against Sichuan, 132-127, sending Sichuan to their fourth consecutive loss, while Fujian remains at the bottom of the rankings. On January 6th, Beijing time, which is today, the CBA will continue with six more matches, featuring popular teams such as Liaoning, Guangsha, Guangdong, and Shanghai. Here are the specific matchups according to the schedule! Beikong vs Jilin: Both teams suffered defeats in the previous round, with Beikong currently ranked 10th and Jilin pushed out of the playoff zone. In their last five encounters, Beikong has a slight advantage with three wins and two losses, making the outcome of this match unpredictable. Ningbo vs Beijing: Ningbo has been in poor form recently, suffering two consecutive losses and currently ranked 14th. On the other hand, Beijing has beaten Liaoning and Zhejiang consecutively, with high morale and currently ranked 8th. Beijing has maintained a perfect record in their last five meetings, holding an absolute advantage, and is expected to win this match. Liaoning vs Guangsha: Liaoning has been in good form recently, winning five out of their last six games and currently ranked 6th. Guangsha,…

Some fans jokingly say that since the second stage, Xu Jie has become more and more like Curry. This not only refers to Xu Jie's playing style approaching Curry's, but also to the fact that like Curry in his early years, Xu Jie signed a relatively cheap "child labor contract" with the team, yet plays a crucial role as the soul of the team. There are also fans from Guangdong who have spoken up for Xu Jie, hoping that the team could give him a raise and some "hardship allowance." However, due to CBA regulations, a raise is unlikely, but issuing bonuses is still possible. It is understood that after the game between Guangdong and Shandong, Chen, the boss of Guangdong, personally came to the bench and sat next to Xu Jie to console him, so the bonus is definitely not to be missed! Hu Mingxuan also received good news, with media reports suggesting that Xiao Hu's recovery progress is quite optimistic, and he is likely to return a month earlier than expected! Xu Jie played 36.7 minutes this season, averaging 16.2 points, 7.8 assists, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.58 steals, with all stats ranking among the top domestic players in the league. So far this season, Xu Jie has won the domestic monthly MVP once, been selected into the best lineup several times, and became the "second-highest vote-getter" in the first week of the All-Star voting. Given such performance by Xu Jie, what do you think his annual salary is? According to the official announcement of the CBA, Xu Jie…

In a thrilling CBA regular season match-up, Liaoning Men's Basketball faced off against Guangsha. Liaoning had just defeated Jilin in their previous game and were riding high on momentum, while Guangsha had become the focus of the league with three consecutive victories. The game started with both teams locked in a tight battle, with Liaoning taking the lead after a brief back-and-forth, but Guangsha quickly adjusted, resulting in a close first quarter with a combined score of less than 50 points. The second quarter saw the situation remain deadlocked, with Guangsha holding a slight advantage at halftime. However, the tide turned dramatically in the second half. Guangsha launched a fierce offensive assault, with multiple players contributing, while Liaoning struggled with their attack, plagued by frequent turnovers. By the third quarter, Guangsha had extended their lead to over 20 points. The fourth quarter was all but decided, and Guangsha emerged victorious with a decisive 101:88 win, securing their fourth consecutive victory. For Liaoning, Wells scored the highest with 21 points, Han Dejun contributed 8 points and 9 rebounds, and Li Xiaoxu performed steadily with 12 points and 6 rebounds. However, core guard Zhao Jiwei had a disappointing game, shooting only 1 out of 8 for a total of 5 points and 3 assists, a significant drop from his usual performance. Please pay attention to Zhao Jiwei's offensive play (GIF animation can be seen at the end of the article), where he passed to Fu Hao for an open layup that missed, causing Zhao to stomp his feet in frustration. It must…

Recently, during a match between Guangdong Hongyuan and Shandong High-Speed teams, an astonishing scene unfolded. It is common knowledge that in the final moments of the fourth quarter, every team would strive to secure victory. However, both Guangdong's head coach Du Feng and Shandong's head coach Qiu Biao seemed uninterested in winning. Specifically, with just over two minutes left in the game, most believed that Guangdong, leading by 9 points, would easily win. But Guangdong suddenly lost their rhythm, as if they had become a different team. Xu Jie was intercepted by Yu Dehao, reducing the lead to 5 points. Mordand also made a passing error, followed by Zhang Haojia, who could have secured a stable three-pointer but instead stepped on the line and shot a long two-pointer. Shandong's response was equally interesting. Qiu Biao replaced the best-performing Gali with Chris, who missed an easy layup after Mordand's mistake, which could have narrowed the gap and potentially won the game for Shandong. This strange scenario where neither team wanted to score or win suggests something amiss with both Guangdong and Shandong. However, I suspect that behind this lies Du Feng and Qiu Biao's grand strategy for their teams' future. Considering the players' usual stability, their performance in this game suggests more than simple mistakes. This reminds me of a classic line from the 1979 Soviet film "Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears," where the beautiful Liu Jia asks her colleague why generals' wives are old and ugly, to which the colleague replies that one must marry a lieutenant and endure…
