The flames of the 24th round of the CBA regular season burned passionately on the evening of December 30th, with seven major battles taking turns to be staged, offering a visual feast for fans. Among them, the 100th match between Liaoning and Guangdong and the Beijing-Xinjiang battle were particularly eye-catching. These two focus battles were not only full of suspense but also reflected the pattern and changes of the CBA league. Liaoning-Guangdong Duel, Yang Ming Smiles in the Face of a Weakened Lineup Challenge When Liaoning Men's Basketball Team faced Guangdong Men's Basketball Team again, the wheels of history had quietly rolled to the 100th time. This time, Liaoning Men's Basketball Team faced the dilemma of an incomplete lineup. The absence of Zhao Jiwei, Zhang Zhenlin, Cong Mingchen, Liu Yanyu, coupled with the delay of the arrival of the big foreign aid, made Yang Ming's hand seem to be in a tight spot. However, it was precisely under such adversity that Liaoning Men's Basketball Team showed astonishing tenacity and strength. Wells, the foreign aid who temporarily took up the team's tough task, became the cornerstone of Liaoning's victory with a performance of 30 points, 5 rebounds, and 7 assists. His scoring ability provided Liaoning with a stable output point on the offensive end. And Han Dejun, the 37-year-old veteran, set an example with 16 points and 12 rebounds, building an indestructible defense line in the paint. His presence made it difficult for Guangdong's offense and defense transitions to proceed smoothly. Liaoning Men's Basketball Team's victory was not the work of…

On January 1st, Beijing time, the 25th round of the CBA will witness a heavyweight match, Liaoning's third battle in their devil schedule, against Beijing BAW, ranked 7th but still one of the favorites to win the championship this season. The two teams met on December 20th last month, with a weakened Liaoning squad facing Beijing without Zhou Qi. The battle was fierce, with Liaoning leading the score under the leadership of Ferg in the first three quarters. However, in the final quarter, Liaoning's offensive slowed down due to physical issues, and Zhang Zhenlin was forced to withdraw from the game after being accidentally injured by Fan Ziming. Beijing staged a great comeback under the leadership of Zeng Fanbo and Chen Yingjun. Zeng Fanbo contributed 4 blocks in a single quarter (all against Ferg), with a total of 7 blocks throughout the game, overshadowing everyone else, and even blocking Ferg's last-second three-pointer attempt (Ferg scored 45 points in the game). Liaoning eventually lost to Beijing by a margin of 1 point, causing Yang Ming to be somewhat furious. Despite Yang Ming's frustration, Liaoning's subsequent record did not plummet as a result. Instead, they became more and more courageous. After Yang Ming abandoned Ture, Liaoning has won four consecutive victories, defeating Fujian, Guangzhou, Xinjiang, and Guangdong. On the other hand, Beijing has struggled, narrowly avoiding defeat to Liaoning but then suffering consecutive losses to Tianjin and Shandong, winning only one of their last four games. Beijing BAIC's recent record has been dismal, with only four wins and six losses in the…

Look at Xu Xin, Du Runwang, Zhang Shaojie, and Zhang Hao, who has just returned from injury, these four local power forwards are being "closely watched" by Coach Du. Why? It's because Liaoning's frontcourt is relatively short-staffed, relying only on Han Dejun and Li Xiaoxu, two experienced veterans. Coach Du wants to take advantage of Guangdong's frontcourt strength to deliver a "blow to the head" to Liaoning. This training is done with real intensity. Coach Du has strict requirements, not letting go of any action or detail. Xu Xin, Du Runwang, Zhang Shaojie, and Zhang Hao, these four power forwards, are also training hard. They practice mid-range shots, strong attacks under the basket, defensive blocks, and more. You can say that Coach Du is "putting his heart and soul into it," taking…

The roster adjustments of the Liaoning basketball team have left many fans with mixed feelings - they are good, but there is also a hint of concern. The team made a series of moves during the offseason with the aim of enhancing their strength, especially in the frontcourt and foreign aid, making significant investments. However, these moves unexpectedly brought considerable challenges to the team. The frontcourt reinforcement did not meet expectations, and the selection of foreign aid was somewhat perplexing. Let's start with Aqiu'er. When he joined, everyone had high hopes. Aqiu'er had previously had a notable stint in the CBA, and it was believed that he could bring a strong interior presence to fill the gaps in Liaoning's lineup. However, his performance did not live up to expectations, leaving some disappointed. In rebounding, he couldn't even secure ordinary rebounds, let alone compete with top-tier centers like Morand. His offensive play was weak, failing to display the expected toughness. Despite his efforts, he couldn't deliver, and ultimately, he didn't stay. Aqiu'er's departure directly reduced the team's interior support by a big body. As for Shayok, his addition showed potential on paper, but once on the court, few understood what he was doing. On offense, it was either turnovers or missed shots, especially those wide-open attempts that seemed cursed. It was evident that he had a solid track record, but he just didn't fit into Liaoning's system, akin to wearing ill-fitting shoes. The team's offensive rhythm never took off, and he appeared lost on the court. Eventually, Shayok didn't survive this…

This is the reason why Guangdong Men's Basketball Team narrowly lost to Liaoning in an away game, it turns out that these things caused it. Netizens have pointed out incisively and vividly: "That young player Li Hu Yi from Liaoning played so hard in the fourth quarter, every time Guangdong Men's Basketball Team almost caught up, Liaoning always had players stand out to widen the score. On the contrary, those young players from Guangdong really couldn't be supported anymore, they could only rely on Xu Jie and Jilunwote to hold on every game. There are too many strong teams now, it will probably take a few more years to recover!" Du Runwang has become a mascot now, Xu Xin is just giving points, not playing any role, no defense, such a big guy standing there can't grab rebounds, Bessie can only brush data when playing weak teams, it's better to sign back Brooks, at least add another ball handler. Guangdong Men's Basketball Team lacks Hu Mingxuan, Liaoning lacks Zhao Jiwei, Zhang Zhenlin and the foreign aid, but Liaoning dominated the whole game, Guangdong was actually no longer a strong team four years ago. Guangdong Men's Basketball Team only lost by 6 points in this game, which is considered good, now Guangdong's goal is to try to enter the playoffs. Guangdong team only has one Jie Ge who can handle the ball, under the three-person double-teaming, Jie Ge also tried his best. Bazley is very soft and cannot attack with the ball, defense alone is not enough. Wang Shaojie is softer…

On December 30th, the CBA league saw Shanghai win an away game in overtime against Nanjing Tongxi with a score of 133:131. This marked their last match of 2024, and they concluded half the season with an 11-game winning streak. From a 1-win, 9-loss record in the first stage to their current 11 consecutive victories, Shanghai has changed coaches, foreign players, and mentality. They now face all opponents with what can be considered their strongest lineup this season, and every victory is justified. The current 11-game winning streak is not the end for them this season; how many more wins will they achieve? Let's look at the schedule, which is uniquely bizarre for Shanghai, making it fitting for miracles and records to emerge from them. Originally, Shanghai was scheduled to play against Shanxi on January 1st, 2025, in the 25th round. However, for unknown reasons, the 25th round has been rescheduled to the end of February during the break period. This isn't the only rescheduled match for Shanghai; they have also yet to play their 13th round game, an away match against Beijing BAW, which has also been moved to late February. Despite ranking 12th, Shanghai has played fewer games than others, with 22 rounds completed, 12 wins, and 10 losses. By win rate, they are actually in tenth place in the league. Shanghai's first game in 2025 is on January 4th, the 26th round, at home against Ningbo. Following that are two away games: against Tianjin on January 6th in the 27th round and against Beikong on January 8th…

CBA Regular Season Round 25 Schedule for Tomorrow, January 1st: Liaoning vs Beijing, Guangdong vs Tianjin At 19:35 Beijing time on January 1st, there will be five games in the 25th round of the CBA regular season, with teams such as Guangdong, Beijing, Liaoning, and Xinjiang participating. Let's take a look at the matchups and predictions! Liaoning Seeks Revenge First Game: Beijing vs Liaoning In the previous match between Beijing and Liaoning, Liaoning narrowly lost 105-106 to Beijing. The upcoming matchup is highly anticipated. Liaoning has recently achieved a four-game winning streak, including victories over traditional powerhouses like Xinjiang and Guangdong. It's worth noting that Liaoning's lineup is not complete, with their main players logging significant minutes. Despite this, they have managed to withstand the pressure and secure hard-fought wins. Although Ferg's shooting has dipped, Wells has stepped up, scoring over 30 points in three consecutive games. Wang Lanchen has also scored in double digits in three straight games, while veterans Han Dejun and Li Xiaoxu continue to exert their influence in the paint. Zeng Fanbo Aims for Breakout Facing Beijing away tomorrow, Liaoning must continue to rely on team play and strong defense. To alleviate their personnel shortage, Liaoning has signed foreign player Justin Patton. Beijing has lost six games in the second stage, although they persist in playing as a team, their scoring is quite even among players, and the three foreign players have not been able to carry the team in crucial moments. Zhou Qi has also been continuously absent, and his participation in the home game…

Latest CBA News! Liaoning Officially Announces Patton, Zhou Qi Returns to Battle Liaoning, Boban's Arrival Time Confirmed Liaoning Men's Basketball Team has recently achieved a four-game winning streak, defeating strong teams like Xinjiang and Guangdong. However, the team's lineup shortcomings are evident, mainly due to the lack of a dominant big foreign player. To address this, coach Yang Ming had to increase the playing time of veterans Han Dejun and Li Xiaoxu. Fortunately, the issue has been resolved with the arrival of new big foreign player Patton. After completing his physical examination, Liaoning has officially announced his signing. The team has submitted Patton's registration materials to the CBA Company for review. Once approved, Patton will officially represent Liaoning in upcoming games, making his debut against Beijing. At only 27 years old and in the prime of his career, Patton stands at an official height of 2.11 meters and was an NBA first-round draft pick. He is not a technical player and has average offensive capabilities but excels in physical attributes, particularly in defense and rim protection. For Liaoning, these characteristics align well with their requirements – as long as he can focus on rim protection and defense, occasionally scoring easy baskets will suffice. Patton's addition will alleviate the lineup issues, allowing Han Dejun and the two small foreign players to have more rest. His performance in the game against Beijing will be highly anticipated. Liaoning is prepared for a fierce battle against Beijing, who also has plans for this match. According to head coach Xu Limin, Zhou Qi, who missed…

Not Liaoning! Not Shougang! The Biggest Favorite for the CBA Championship, Zhejiang's Two Strong Teams Could Sweep 20 Teams in the Title Race The CBA regular season has quietly reached its 23rd round, and the halfway point of the season seems to have set the general situation. The second break is about to arrive, and the season will enter the second half. Looking at the current standings, Zhejiang Guangsha and Zhejiang Chouzhou Gold Rental have taken a strong lead, occupying the top two positions. Their form is simply soaring to the sky, performing much better than many people expected. Even some seasoned insiders jokingly say that the championship race looks like an internal competition within Zhejiang right now, with other teams just watching from the sidelines. Don't forget, although the two Zhejiang teams are currently in the limelight, this is not the first time they have been in a favorable position. In previous years, although they often hung around the finals, they always lacked that little bit of luck, or injuries, or a sudden collapse in foreign aid form, always falling short of the championship. To be honest, last season alone, the two Zhejiang teams fought hard, but due to injury factors, they were never able to break through. Think about it then, fans were all holding their breath, watching the final few rounds of games, silently praying that there would be no more injuries! Looking back, the Zhejiang teams have obviously learned from their mistakes so far this season. This year, they have not only adopted a more scientific…
