Guangdong tries out a 1.97-meter forward, Liaoning's new signing arrives! Shanghai offers for Knicks, Guo Ailun returns After securing a three-game winning streak, Coach Du Feng can finally breathe a sigh of relief. However, the Guangdong Southern Tigers are still severely affected by the flu, with key players like Xu Jie and Huang Rongqi showing signs of improvement but still lacking energy. It is reported that the Guangdong team is currently trialing a 1.97-meter forward named Bart, who is known as a scoring force on the wing for Guangxi Weizhuang and has a playing style similar to that of former player Yi Jianlian. If Bart impresses Coach Du Feng, contract details will be discussed between the two parties. Since the departure of the Yi-Jianlian duo, Guangdong has been searching for suitable replacements in the transfer market, but finding championship-caliber players has proven challenging. The implementation of the new foreign player policy, allowing seven foreign player appearances across four quarters, has led to significant investment from CBA teams in foreign talent acquisition. This makes it even more difficult for Guangdong, which traditionally operates within its means, to find satisfactory candidates in the player market. Fans hope that the club will consider foreign players with prior experience in China and give more opportunities to young domestic players. According to Liaoning media, Liaoning Flying Leopards' new signing, Webber III, has arrived in the country. As a tall, ball-handling forward, Webber III is capable of cutting to the basket and possesses an accurate three-point shot. Alongside the 2.11-meter center Patton, the two will bolster…

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…

Brunson has been performing well with the Knicks, becoming a qualified star player. After Randle was out last season, Brunson led the Knicks to remarkable achievements. They made it all the way to second place in the East and successfully advanced to the playoffs. The playoff journey was full of excitement and thrills. In the first round against the 76ers led by Embiid, the Knicks eliminated them with their strong strength. In the second round against the Pacers, the situation was also promising, with consecutive victories in the first two games (G1, G2). However, fate began to play tricks, and injuries plagued the team like a shadow, with key players getting injured one after another. Under such circumstances, it became extremely difficult to maintain a winning streak. Ultimately, the Knicks lost to the Pacers with a score of 3-4, missing out on the Eastern Conference Finals. However, this could not overshadow Brunson's brilliance in the playoffs. In 13 games, he averaged 32.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 7.5 assists, with a shooting percentage of 44.4%, which is completely at the top level of the league. Before the start of the new season, the Knicks made a blockbuster trade. They reached an agreement with the Timberwolves, sending Randle and DiVincenzo in exchange for Towns. At that time, many people thought that Towns would be a supporting role to Brunson in the Knicks, just like how he supported Edwards in the Timberwolves. However, things developed unexpectedly, and Towns shone brightly after joining the Knicks. His performance on the court was quite impressive, and…

Despite consecutive victories over Liaoning Men's Basketball Team and Zhejiang Chouzhou, both due to the absence of key players from their opponents, Beijing Shougang head coach Xu Limin has been criticized by fans for his use of foreign players. This criticism is particularly pronounced given the recent poor offensive form of Jerman and the lack of ball-handling ability of Omore, which often leaves Beijing Shougang struggling to break through on offense. As a result, adding high-quality foreign players has become a good medicine for Beijing Shougang to solve their offensive problems. Previously, there were rumors that Beijing Shougang considered signing former Shanghai Jiushi foreign player Nong Nali as an emergency measure. Fans reacted strongly to this, as Nong Nali simply did not have the ability to stand out in the CBA. Instead of wasting money on him, it would be better to give more opportunities to young players like Sun Yawei. Now, Beijing Shougang has finally waited for an opportunity. According to Beijing media, after the NBA Timberwolves announced their latest layoff news, Beijing Shougang officially offered a contract to 1.93-meter tall guard Deyshen Nix. Nix was once a five-star high school player in the United States, but as a short and stocky guard, he has always been on the fringes of NBA teams. However, his physical fitness is more than enough for the CBA. If Beijing Shougang can sign Nix to alternate with Jerman, their backcourt issues could be resolved, and it would also allow Chen Yingjun, who suffered an ankle sprain, to rest for a while before returning.…

The highly anticipated second stage of the CBA regular season's 26th round has seen intense competition, with recent news about traditional powerhouse Guangdong men's basketball team defeating dark horse Shandong team at home with a score of 98-93 drawing attention from fans. In this battle, Guangdong's foreign aid, Morland and Jilunwater, once again demonstrated their strong dominance. However, the core that truly helped Guangdong defeat Shandong was still the main guard Xu Jie. Despite being restricted by top defensive players like Yu Dehao and Gao Shiyan in the entire league, Xu Jie still efficiently scored 22+11+4 points. In the future, Guangdong must quickly introduce a qualified small foreign aid to provide sufficient assistance to Xu Jie. With the NBA league ushering in a new round of layoffs, Guangdong also decided to cut the new foreign aid Les during this period due to insufficient strength. Obviously, Zhu Fangyu and Du Feng will inevitably introduce a qualified offensive foreign aid during the NBA layoff wave. Since it has been reported that the Minnesota Timberwolves of the NBA have cut the forward-guard core Daisen Nicks, the latter has also been regarded as one of the most ideal reinforcement targets for Guangdong. Daisen Nicks has a standard forward core playing style, but his personal ability can only serve as the core of a tanking team. Previously, Nicks had particularly eye-catching performances during his time with the Rockets, even scoring 45 points with 29 shots in a highlight performance. However, Nicks is now finding it difficult to continue in the NBA. After Nicks was cut…

The Thunder have won again, defeating the Knicks 117-107 in a remarkable comeback, securing their 14th consecutive victory and solidifying their position as the undisputed first in the Western Conference. Despite trailing by 14 points at one point, the Thunder managed to turn the game around, demonstrating the qualities of a true powerhouse team. This 14-game winning streak has set a new franchise record for the Thunder, surpassing the previous record of 13 consecutive wins held by their predecessor, the SuperSonics. The Thunder are truly championship contenders, possessing all the necessary components for a title run. Their core player, Alexander, is capable of leading the charge and is currently the second favorite for the MVP award, only behind Jokic. Their frontline is bolstered by Holmgren and Hatton, while the wing positions are occupied by Jay, along with Caruso and Dort. Once Holmgren recovers from his injury, the Thunder will be unstoppable. Against the Knicks, the Thunder effectively showcased two key strengths. The first is their ability to deliver decisive blows, thanks to the supergiant Alexander. Hatton's dominance in the paint also left the Knicks in awe. They really didn't want to let Hatton go, but they had no choice. Hatton's relentless rebounding and his playmaking abilities make him akin to a blue-collar version of Jokic. The game was indeed thrilling, with both teams locked in a stalemate in the first quarter. The Knicks' starting lineup, featuring Brunson, Bridges, Hart, Anunoby, and Towns, were in full swing, with Thibodeau heavily relying on these five players, maintaining an eight-man rotation. The Thunder,…

On January 4, 2025, Beijing time, the 28-win and 5-loss Thunder hosted the 24-win and 10-loss Knicks. The Thunder currently has a 13-game winning streak, while the Knicks have a 9-game winning streak. Both teams are in excellent form. The Thunder played back-to-back (they made a big comeback win against the Clippers yesterday), while the Knicks rested for two days, giving them an advantage in terms of physical condition. The Thunder's defensive efficiency and net efficiency rank first in the league, while the Knicks boast top-tier talent. This match is considered a peak confrontation. Who will take the victory? The Thunder's Chet and Caruso were absent, with the starting lineup being Alexander + Wallace + Dort + Jalen + Harten. On the Knicks' side, Miro was absent, with the starting lineup being Brunson + Bridges + Hart + OG + Towns.

Which NBA team has been the most surprising this season? If I had to choose, it would definitely be the Knicks. So far, the Knicks have achieved a record of 24 wins and 10 losses, ranking third in the Eastern Conference. After defeating the Jazz on January 2nd, they secured their ninth consecutive win, showing great momentum. Given the Knicks' impressive lineup, featuring Brunson, Towns, Bridges, Anunoby, and Hart as starters, along with rotation players like McBride, Payne, Achiuwa, and Shamet, one might expect them to perform at this level. What's so surprising about that? At the beginning of the season, you didn't think so. At the start of the season, the Knicks were almost in shambles. They struggled to find chemistry, playing awkwardly, with Towns and Brunson seemingly fighting their own battles. In the first 18 games of the season, they only managed to secure a record of 10 wins and 8 losses. But in the last 16 games, they've won 14 and lost 2. This transformation is centered around Towns. The "disliked" Towns was suddenly "informed" of a trade to the Knicks before the new season began. The Timberwolves had two reasons for doing this: to save money and to believe in Edwards' talent and potential. With no choice, Towns bid farewell to Minnesota, where he was drafted, and headed to New York. Towns has a classic meme that emphasizes his softness: Cousins' expression seems to say, "Put some effort into it, little brother." But now, Cousins can no longer play in the NBA and has resorted to…

The NBA Teams Most Likely to Win 60 Games This Season! The Celtics Top the List, and the Knicks Make the Cut 1.Celtics (64-18 in the 23-24 season, projected 65-17 in the 24-25 season)‌ It comes as no surprise that one of the teams most likely to achieve a 60-win record in the 24-25 NBA season is the reigning champion Boston Celtics, who already accomplished a 64-18 record last season. As champions of the 23-24 season and a storied franchise with a rich history of titles, the Celtics are not content with just one championship, unlike some teams that might be satisfied after winning once and then dismantle their roster. With the most championships in NBA history, the Celtics have been preparing for consecutive titles. In the 2024 offseason, they not only retained the core of their championship-winning team from the 23-24 season but also extended a max contract to one of their key players, Jayson Tatum, signing him for an additional five years at $314 million. This decision to maintain the same lineup can be seen as the best possible reinforcement, as a team that has just gelled and won a championship will only get stronger with continued cohesion, especially without any age-related concerns. Additionally, making Tatum, who missed out on the 23-24 season's Finals MVP, the highest-paid player in NBA history sends a clear message of trust from the team. To repay this faith, Tatum is expected to work even harder in the new season to prove himself, leading the team to better results and his own Finals…

Super Big Clash! 7 People Ejected! Ranked Third in NBA History!‌ Do you still remember many of the major fights in NBA history? For example, the 2004 Auburn Mountain Palace incident and the Madison Square Garden brawl in 2006, etc. Those who have watched the game and experienced these scenes are definitely old fans. With the continuous development of the NBA, the passionate collisions in the game are becoming less and less. According to O'Neal's point of view, it is a mode of shooting three-pointers when going out and falling down when touched. It is rare to see some conflict events, let alone multiple conflicts. However, on the eve of the end of 2024, a major conflict occurred. On December 30, 2024, in an NBA game between the Rockets at home and the Heat, there was a super big conflict with 7 people ejected. In the final moments of the fourth quarter of the game, Van Fleet committed a violation while serving from the sideline and was ejected for complaining about the referee's decision. Later, Amen Thompson and Herro had a quarrel. Amen pushed Herro to the ground. Rozier and Hayesmith rushed up to tangle with Amen immediately, and Jalen Green also impulsively joined the melee. In the end, 7 people were ejected, including the Rockets' Amen Thompson, Jalen Green, head coach Udoka, assistant coach Sullivan, and Van Fleet who was previously ejected. Herro and Rozier of the Heat were also ejected. In NBA history, 7 people were ejected in a single game, ranking third, only behind the Auburn Mountain…
