Translation of the article content into English: At the age of 26, Tatum, Durant, and James: No Comparison, No Embarrassment As James and Durant gradually age, and Leonard is plagued by injuries throughout the year, the title of the league's top small forward naturally falls on Tatum. So, as a comparison, let's take a look at the achievements and data of Tatum and the two older brothers, James and Durant, when they were all at the age of 26. Tatum As the third overall pick in the 2017 draft, 26-year-old Tatum has been fighting in the league for eight seasons without realizing it. To date, he averages 23.4 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.1 steals per game, with a shooting percentage of 46.1% and a three-point percentage of 37.5%. In terms of honors, Tatum has won one championship, been selected to the All-NBA First Team three times, the All-NBA Third Team once, made five All-Star appearances, and won one All-Star MVP. His team's record includes seven consecutive playoff appearances, two Finals appearances, and one championship win. Although he did not win the Finals MVP, there is no denying that he remains the absolute core of the current Celtics. Durant Durant was still with the Thunder at the age of 26, and at that time, he had already been called the "Big and Small Kings" of the league alongside James. In his first eight seasons, Durant averaged 27.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 5 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 52.3% and a three-point percentage of 41.3%. In terms…

The second phase of the CBA competition has intensified, with the 25th round featuring an exciting match between Guangdong Hongyuan and Tianjin Men's Basketball Team. Among the highlights of the game was the courage and boldness shown by Guangdong's guard Xu Jie when facing Tianjin's center, Gao Shiao. The nearly half-meter height difference between the 1.78m Xu Jie and the 2.25m Gao Shiao sparked heated discussions among fans. At the start of the game, Tianjin took the initiative, with Gao Shiao scoring repeatedly in the paint thanks to his absolute height advantage. One memorable "match-up" scene from the first quarter impressed fans: during a strong inside attack by Tianjin, it was the small guard Xu Jie who was tasked with defending against Gao Shiao. With a height difference of 47 centimeters, Xu Jie tried his best to block, but Gao Shiao could easily score without even leaving the ground. This moment elicited a chorus of amazement from the stands – it was a defense that was destined to be futile. However, Xu Jie did not back down after this setback. Towards the end of the first quarter, Guangdong organized an offensive play, with Xu Jie holding the ball and boldly challenging Gao Shiao to a 1v1 duel. Facing an opponent almost half a meter taller, he chose to charge into the paint and attempted to score with a quick stop jump shot. Although the shot did not go in, this exchange demonstrated Xu Jie's confidence and boldness in the face of strong opponents. In the direct confrontation of "David vs…

Houston Rockets recently suffered a two-game losing streak, which has left their fans feeling very distressed. The Rockets lost both games due to a sudden offensive outage in the fourth quarter, unfortunately falling to the Timberwolves and the Heat. The biggest problem exposed by the Rockets' consecutive losses is the lack of a key player in the fourth quarter. Neither VanVleet nor Green, nor Shen Jing, have the ability to seal the deal in critical moments. In this situation, trading for a star player has become an urgent matter for the Rockets. According to previous reports, the Rockets management did not plan to make any trades this season as they wanted to observe how far the team could go. However, recent consecutive losses may have somewhat softened the Rockets management's stance. Especially with some potential big fish appearing in the trade market. Both Fox from the Kings and Butler from the Heat can meet the Rockets' demand for superstars. Especially Fox, the 27-year-old young player who had a great performance this season, including a highlight moment of scoring 60 points in a single game. The good relationship between the Rockets and the Kings management also increases the possibility of a trade. Moreover, according to media reports, the Kings have expressed interest in some of the young players on the Rockets, making a big trade between the two teams seem increasingly likely. On December 31st, Beijing time, Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report reported that an Eastern Conference management source revealed: "Sacramento really likes (the Rockets') Sheppard." Eric Pincus reported that the…

On January 1st, Beijing time, the CBA regular season continued with Guangdong playing against Tianjin at home. Guangdong started well, quickly taking control of the game and continuously widening the point difference, achieving a maximum lead of 21 points. However, Tianjin began to catch up continuously, once reducing the point difference to only 1 point. Fortunately, at a critical moment, Du Runwang made two consecutive three-pointers. In the end, Guangdong defeated Tianjin 110-103. In the first quarter, Gao Shiao dunked to start the game, followed by Jilunwate's jumper in response.

Jilunwate made a jumper, but Tianjin found their rhythm again, with Hamlet breaking through and Lin Tingqian hitting a three-pointer, reducing the score to…

An NBA regular-season match-up between the Lakers and the Cavaliers was a focal point of attention. The Lakers have been in good form recently, bolstered by the addition of new recruits Smith and Milton, who were both available to play. Additionally, this game marked LeBron James' first appearance at the age of 40, so the team was keen on securing a victory to celebrate his birthday. The Cavaliers, currently the top team in the league, have an undefeated record against Western Conference teams, with eight wins and no losses, giving them a slight advantage. However, if they were to become complacent or underestimate their opponents, it could prove costly. The Lakers' starting lineup featured Reeves, Christie, Hachimura, James, and Davis, while the Cavaliers started Garland, Mitchell, Wade, Mobley, and Allen. Both teams started off with good shooting, particularly the Cavaliers, who continued their league-leading offensive prowess with a balanced attack that stifled the Lakers and silenced the home crowd. After a rest, James returned with plenty of energy, scoring both inside and outside, showing no signs of his age as he teamed up with Davis to score the team's first 12 points. Reeves made a mistake, and Hachimura missed two layups, leading to jokes about his teammates being CBA level. The Cavaliers capitalized on the Lakers' mistakes, converting on fast breaks to lead 21-12. After a timeout, the Cavaliers maintained control of the game's tempo, with the Lakers struggling on offense, defense, and turnovers, resulting in a 15-point deficit. However, the Lakers did not collapse; when the Cavaliers' bench struggled…

8 Players Rotate to Defend Against James! Unconditional Trust in Du Runwang and Zhang Haojia, Du Feng Finally Takes Revenge on Zhang Qingpeng Hu Mingxuan is confirmed to be out for 3 months due to injury, and Les has left the team. The New Year's battle between Guangdong with three foreign players and their nemesis Tianjin has begun. This time, Guangdong's frontcourt will face a major test. In the last 5 games, Guangdong has averaged an impressive 41 points, 15 rebounds, and 3 assists from their super interior player, David James. Whether they can win this game depends on how well they can contain David James. In the first quarter, Jilunwote started hot, scoring 6 points in a row, helping Guangdong to an 8-2 lead within 4 minutes. Morand missed his first 3 free throws, and James also missed his first 3 shots. Tianjin began to catch up under the leadership of Lavert. Jiguo Wang scored 13 points in 7 minutes, and Guangdong led Tianjin 15-9 after 7 minutes. In the first quarter, Tianjin's defense had problems, being too lax against Jilunwote. The issue arose from James, who was directly matched up against Jilunwote. Jimo duo accounted for all of Guangdong's points in the first 8 minutes. Xu Jie then found his rhythm and hit a three-pointer. In the second half of the quarter, Guangdong went on a 7-0 run in 2 minutes, extending their lead to 26-15. Zhang Qingpeng finally called a timeout, and Du Feng replaced Beizili. Zhang Qingpeng took out David James and brought in Hamlet. At…

On January 1st, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued with a total of 6 matchups scheduled for the day. The specific results are as follows: The Raptors lost 71-125 to the Celtics, the Bucks narrowly defeated the Pacers 120-112, the Clippers suffered a crushing 86-122 loss to the Spurs, the Timberwolves fell 105-113 to the Thunder, the Cavaliers upset the Lakers 122-110, and the Grizzlies narrowly beat the Suns 117-112. Multiple top teams from both the East and West conferences took the court, with upsets and blowouts aplenty, leading to mixed emotions among the teams involved. Let's take a closer look at the gains and losses of each team in today's games. The Los Angeles Clippers traveled to face the San Antonio Spurs, with the Clippers having just escaped the play-in tournament zone with a three-game winning streak, while the Spurs have been hovering around the play-in zone for some time. In the game, Wembanyama faced off against Harden, scoring 17 points in the first quarter alone, matching the Clippers' total score, while Harden accounted for 13 of the Clippers' 17 points. The Spurs quickly established a 14-point lead. In the second quarter, the Spurs remained unstoppable, extending their lead to over 20 points. After halftime, Harden and Powell tried to stop the bleeding for the Clippers, but the Spurs had a full squad contributing, with the lead reaching over 30 points, effectively ending the suspense of the game early. Ultimately, the Clippers suffered a crushing 86-122 defeat at the hands of the Spurs. While it may not be…

On January 1st, Beijing time, the Clippers played against the Spurs away from home, and the game ended with the Clippers losing 88-122 to the Spurs. In this game, the Clippers were playing back-to-back, so they would have some physical problems. More importantly, none of the Clippers' players could match up against Wenyambo, so in the game, the Clippers could only watch as Wenyambo helped the Spurs take the lead. Moreover, Powell's offensive state was also very poor in the game, which made it even more difficult for the Clippers to catch up. Not to mention that the Clippers failed to control their own turnovers in this game, so when the Spurs scored from multiple points, the Clippers were also beaten down. This game had already lost suspense by the third quarter. In fact, it is not unacceptable for the Clippers to lose this game. After all, it should be understandable that the Clippers' offensive state is low in back-to-back games. Moreover, Powell has been playing quite well in recent games, so it should be understandable that Powell occasionally appears low in the game. After all, even Harden, who is as strong as him, has appeared low several times this season. Not to mention that this game is still back-to-back, and in this game, it is not only Powell who is low, but also Zubac and others who are also low in the game. Therefore, it is normal for Powell to appear low. Finally, in this game, Powell got 15 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists with 12 shots and…
