The latest dynamics of the CBA standings are like a vivid competitive painting, showcasing the fierce competition among teams and their different destinies. The two strong teams from the land of Qilu - Shandong Expressway and Qingdao Men's Basketball - have made it to the top four of the standings with their recent stable performance and outstanding displays, occupying the third and fourth positions respectively. This is not only an affirmation of the strength of both teams but also the best reward for their continuous efforts and team spirit. Shandong Expressway has shown the style of a championship contender with its powerful interior strength and balanced offensive and defensive transitions; while Qingdao Men's Basketball has become an undeniable force in the league with its fast and flexible playing style and the rise of young players! Meanwhile, Guangdong Hongyuan's recent performance has been impressive. They have climbed rapidly to eighth place from the mid-to-lower reaches of the standings with a strong momentum of seven consecutive victories, narrowing the gap with Liaoning Men's Basketball, ranked fifth, to just one win. Under the guidance of Du Feng, Guangdong Team is obviously making every effort to chase Liaoning, aiming to achieve further breakthroughs on the standings. The key to their winning streak has been Guangdong Team's quick counterattacks, accurate shooting, and the stable performance of veterans. Liaoning Men's Basketball, on the other hand, needs to be wary of the pursuers behind them, maintain their form, and consolidate their ranking! However, not all teams can sail smoothly like Shandong Expressway, Qingdao Men's Basketball, or Guangdong…

This season's CBA regular season is more than halfway through, and the league's landscape has become quite clear. Zhejiang Guangsha is leading the pack as the team with the most championship potential this season, followed closely by Shanxi as a dark horse. Shandong, Qingdao, Zhejiang, Xinjiang, Liaoning, and Guangdong - these teams are all within one or two wins of each other. However, no one expected Liaoning Men's Basketball, aiming for a third consecutive championship, to have already set a new high for losses in the last four years before the season even ends. As the team leader, Zhao Jiwei's performance has significantly declined, with his average score plummeting from 15.1 points last season to 9.6 points this season, almost becoming a microcosm of the team's decline. Indeed, if we were to select the fastest-declining superstar in the CBA this year, Zhao Jiwei would undoubtedly be the "popular choice." This season, Zhao Jiwei averages 27.2 minutes per game, scoring 9.6 points, 7 assists, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.5 steals. His statistics are far inferior to those during the three consecutive championship period, with his scoring reaching a six-year low and assists at a four-year low. In addition to the basic data slump, Zhao Jiwei's shooting percentages have also hit rock bottom. His overall shooting percentage is 38.9%, the first time it has fallen below 40% in his career, and his three-point shooting is 31.3%, the second-lowest except for his rookie season. Previously, when Zhao Jiwei performed poorly in national team games, we could always say that he was still the god…

Just now, Liaoning Bensteel Men's Basketball Team, which has won three consecutive CBA championships, announced that it has successfully signed with American player James Webb III. The player was not selected in the 2016 NBA draft and his career has been through the NBA, NBA Development League, Bundesliga, La Liga and other leagues in several countries. After many twists and turns, he finally decided to join Liaoning Men's Basketball Team, and both sides will work together to fight the remaining games of this season. A few days ago, James Webb III set off from Europe to China. After arriving in Hong Kong, he spent about 48 hours handling entry-related matters, and it was not until one o'clock this morning that he arrived in Shenyang. Unexpectedly, after only six hours in Shenyang, Webb went to Northeast International for a physical examination early this morning with Liaoning Men's Basketball Team staff. After the physical examination, he went straight to the home court of Liaoning Men's Basketball Team to meet with the team, and also exchanged greetings with head coach Yang Ming and other teammates one by one. After the physical examination results came out, Liaoning Men's Basketball Team immediately announced the signing of James Webb III. However, considering that Webb has not yet obtained the official registration information of the CBA and is tired from continuous flights, he is unlikely to play in tonight's game between Liaoning Team and Beikong Team. Although he cannot participate in the game immediately, Webb's behavior and spirit of sacrificing rest time to complete the registration as…

Zhou Juncheng, once a member of the Liaoning men's basketball team, has not had a smooth career trajectory as people initially expected. His lack of ball-handling and control skills has become a fatal bottleneck that hinders his further development. In the fiercely competitive CBA arena, a guard who cannot skillfully master dribbling and rhythm control will undoubtedly be greatly limited in their performance and influence in the game. In recent years, with the continuous emergence of young talents in the Liaoning men's basketball team and adjustments to the team's tactical system, Zhou Juncheng has been unable to return to the first team. His name has gradually faded from the sight of fans, and even in the transfer market, few people are interested. This is undoubtedly a huge blow and sense of frustration for a professional player. In an attempt to break through and prove himself, Zhou Juncheng also tried to switch to street courts. However, even in this relatively relaxed and free environment, he still finds it difficult to show a convincing performance. His lack of ball control skills makes him seem helpless when facing some high-level opponents, unable to effectively control the pace and direction of the game. This undoubtedly further exacerbates his difficulties and confusion. Facing such a severe reality, Zhou Juncheng's career seems to have fallen into an unprecedented low point. Some even speculate that he may choose to retire early because he cannot find a suitable stage for himself. For a young man who once cherished basketball dreams and longed to make achievements on the professional…

With a high-paying B-class contract from Liaoning Basketball, he has only made a few appearances this season and hasn't even made it into the 12-man squad in recent rounds of games. Although the season is not yet over, it is estimated that he will definitely leave during the next offseason. When he returned to Liaoning Basketball from Jiangsu Basketball, many fans were still expecting him to strengthen Liaoning's last link, which was three-point shooting. However, after a season, not only did the fans not see the three-point shots they wanted to see, but they also rarely saw him on the court. After new recruit Weber joined the team, he made it into Liaoning's 12-man squad in the first game, while Zhao Lüzhou was removed from the squad by Yang Ming. He was very hopeful when he first came back, after all, he had some outstanding performances in Jiangsu and he is a local player. But indeed, there is no place for him in a championship-level team, or rather, it's quite awkward in Liaoning's current system. It's not suitable to let him go to a weaker team, and it's actually a waste of his career to stay in Liaoning. The No. 3 position is currently having a big impact on Liaoning. Liaoning didn't have Zhang Zhenlin back then, at the peak of Hardson, at the peak of Guo Ailun, and mature Zhao Jiwei could only win one championship, with Gao Shiyan as a substitute. These four are already considered the top configuration of the so-called three guards, but it still doesn't…

Translation: Beijing time on January 17, Guo Ailun did not score a single point, but he found joy and respect in Guangzhou that he could not get in Liaoning, and the Guangdong fans really gave him face, genuinely liking him. In a previous Guangdong derby, Guo Ailun played for 31 minutes representing Guangzhou, ultimately missing all seven shots and scoring no points. However, considering this was his return after 45 days, the result is understandable. Moreover, although the game was lost, Guo Ailun smiled happily because he felt the respect and support in Guangzhou and Guangdong that he could not feel in Liaoning. Guo Ailun's last year in Liaoning was actually not very happy, with multiple instances of the team winning while he had a dark expression. Although Guo Ailun couldn't play, his expressions on the sidelines were visible. What's more important is that even though he didn't play well in Guangzhou, he was still very happy, finally feeling the long-awaited joy and respect. The game against Guangdong was like this. During the match, Du Feng really liked Guo Ailun. He specifically chose a gap when a Guangdong player was taking a free throw to pull Guo Ailun aside to chat warmly, saying many things that made Guo Ailun laugh out loud. Looking at Guo Shao's expression, it's clear he felt the long-awaited respect and warmth in this team, which he indeed couldn't feel in Liaoning, otherwise he wouldn't have been so eager to leave. Although he came to Guangzhou, not Guangdong, fans of all three Guangdong teams like and…

In this season's fierce competition in the CBA league, a "seize the throne" drama centered around the championship is quietly unfolding. Zhejiang Guangsha, a rapidly rising force in recent years, is launching a fierce assault on Liaoning Men's Basketball's three-peat dynasty with an unprecedented determination and strength. To end Liaoning's glory, Guangsha not only continuously refines its tactical system but also exerts great effort in player recruitment, striving to achieve the best personnel configuration to pave the way for the championship. Following the successful signing of center Boban, who left a deep impression on the NBA court, Guangsha once again makes a big move by announcing an agreement with another NBA veteran, Nunnally, to join the team. This series of recruitment actions undoubtedly adds more powerful immediate combat capability to Guangsha's lineup and allows fans to see the dawn of Guangsha's new era of rule. The arrival of Nunnally is an important addition to Guangsha's perimeter firepower. As a player with rich experience in the NBA, Nunnally possesses excellent scoring ability and broad vision, capable of providing stable firepower output from the outside while also creating scoring opportunities for the team using his personal skills at critical moments. His joining will further enhance Guangsha's perimeter threat, making the team's offensive system more three-dimensional and varied. With the addition of these two strong reinforcements, Guangsha's overall strength has made a qualitative leap. On the basis of maintaining the stability of the original core lineup, Guangsha strengthens the team's shortcomings inside and outside through precise recruitment, laying a solid foundation for the…

The CBA regular season is about to enter its 32nd round. According to the schedule, the match between Guangdong Men's Basketball and Guangzhou Men's Basketball will start at 19:35, while the match between Liaoning Men's Basketball and Ningbo will start at 19:35 on January 17th. However, at this moment, a strong team has already secured a playoff ticket in advance, which is Guangsha Men's Basketball. In the just concluded 31st round, Guangsha Men's Basketball easily defeated Ningbo Men's Basketball. Currently, Guangsha Men's Basketball ranks first in the entire league with a record of 27 wins and 4 losses. Since there are only 46 rounds in the CBA regular season this year, and Jilin Men's Basketball, ranked 13th, currently has a record of 11 wins and 20 losses, even if Guangsha Men's Basketball loses all of their next 15 games, their final regular season ranking will still be 12th, which is also a spot for the playoffs. Therefore, Guangsha Men's Basketball has become the first team to secure a playoff spot this season, which also breaks the record for the fastest qualification for the playoffs in CBA history. This season's Guangsha Men's Basketball is strong and well-equipped with top-level foreign aid. In the first and second stages, they successively defeated many strong teams, including double-killing Guangdong Men's Basketball, defeating the defending champion Liaoning Men's Basketball, and double-killing Shanxi Men's Basketball, who is currently ranked second, with one game winning by as much as 33 points, showing how terrifying Guangsha Men's Basketball's current strength is. In addition, this team signed former NBA…

As a member of the men's national basketball team, he can't get enough playing time in Liaoning, averaging only more than ten minutes per game, and even less than the substitute player Yan Shouqi. Wang Lanqin's struggles in Liaoning also represent the current difficulties of the team. Although Liaoning narrowly defeated Shanghai, Liaoning fans are not happy at all. The team's sluggish state continues, and Shanghai is missing their star foreign player Lofton, with several key players playing injured. Liaoning almost lost their lead and were overturned. The biggest problem for Liaoning right now remains unsolved. In the past, with a single foreign player, the domestic players' abilities were limited, and only two or three teams could punish Han Dejun and Fu Hao on defense. Now, with basically two foreign players, anyone can punish them. Adding a player like Yan Shouqi who is a liability on defense, there's no hope for the defensive end. Then on the offensive end, they still have to rely on Han Dejun, and with the clear improvement in defense from the opposing team with two foreign players, Han Dejun is also playing extremely hard. Currently, the number four position has the biggest problem. Li Xiaoxu cannot attack, and on the offensive end, apart from setting screens and putbacks, he has no other use. He is the point that all teams leave open. Fu Hao cannot defend, and those who can help him make up positions either lack speed or size. The spatial attributes on the offensive end are also unstable, and the opponent can try…

Due to the decline of Liaoning Men's Basketball and Guangdong Team, there are no super teams in this season's CBA, so the competition among teams is fierce, and games often go down to the wire. However, among many teams, a super dark horse team has emerged. They rely on their excellent offensive firepower, often leaving opponents clueless. For example, in this game, they made 17 out of 20 shots in a single quarter, scoring 49 points with an 85% shooting rate, directly taking a big lead over their opponents. In the CBA regular season match between Shanxi and Tianjin, Shanxi finally found their form and won a big victory over Tianjin with their offensive firepower. Especially in the second quarter, they made 17 out of 20 shots, scoring 49 points. Among them, the tough player Zhang Ning was 5 for 5, scoring 14 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, and 1 steal, winning Tianjin by 17 points in a single quarter. In fact, Tianjin's offense in the second quarter wasn't bad, scoring 32 points in the quarter, but Shanxi was just too accurate, with three-pointers and mid-range shots coming from all angles, making it impossible for Tianjin to cope. In this game, Shanxi played like a wild horse let loose, scoring a total of 136 points, including 14 out of 23 three-pointers, with a shooting rate exceeding 60%. Among them, Yuan Shuai was 3 for 5, Jiao Hailong was 4 for 5, Jia Mingru was 2 for 2, and even Zhang Ning, who was only 2 for 4, was below average.…
