The 33rd round of CBA league matches is in full swing, and tonight Shanxi team welcomed the challenge of Guangzhou team at home. It was originally thought that this would be an unattractive match between strong and weak teams, with the outcome seemingly predetermined from the start. However, Guangzhou team showed unexpected tenacity, with both sides fighting almost to the end. Ultimately, Shanxi team won 124:116 against Guangzhou team, securing their fourth consecutive victory. Unexpectedly, towards the end of the match, an incident occurred. With the game situation already decided, Shanxi team player Jia Mingru made a three-pointer with 2.8 seconds left and performed a muscle-flexing gesture towards Guangzhou team's bench. This was clearly a provocative action, which Guangzhou team found hard to tolerate, especially in defeat. As the two teams were about to shake hands, conflict erupted due to Jia Mingru's actions. However, since it was their home court, Jia Mingru was very excited and even spread his arms to ask for more cheers and applause from the fans. Fortunately, the conflict did not escalate, and the situation calmed down with the intervention of both teams' players. What was surprising was that after the game ended and both teams had returned to their respective locker rooms, Guangzhou team's players actually rushed into Shanxi team's locker room collectively. This was clearly an irrational behavior; if any fighting had broken out, Guangzhou team would have suffered significant losses, as the CBA league does not tolerate such incidents. Fortunately, the players from both teams did not meet in the locker room corridor.…

Despite trailing by 11 points, Shanghai managed to catch up to a 79-79 score in the first three quarters. However, Shanxi regained the lead in the final quarter. Shanghai continued to fight back and close the gap, but Diyallo and Zhang Ning scored crucial goals in the closing moments, extending their lead by double digits. Ultimately, Shanghai suffered a 100-111 defeat at the hands of Shanxi, marking their second consecutive loss, while Shanxi secured their third consecutive win, consolidating their position as second in the league.

On January 17th at 7:30 PM Beijing time, the highly anticipated CBA regular season reignites with a focus on the clash between the Shanghai Sharks and Shanxi Fenjiu, which will be broadcast live by CCTV5, providing basketball fans with a visual feast. The highlight of this match is undoubtedly the intense collision between the Shanghai Sharks and Shanxi Fenjiu, both teams carrying a strong desire for victory, vowing to leave their mark of glory on the court. The Shanghai Sharks, known as the dark horse in the CBA, have always been renowned for their deep lineup and fluid offensive firepower. This time, they bring with them an impressive recent record, aiming to continue their momentum at home. Their big foreign player, Lofton, stands tall and long, serving as a crucial weapon for the team's offensive prowess. His every leap and dunk on the court is enough to shock opponents, making him an indispensable scoring point and rebounding guarantee for the team. However, Shanxi Fenjiu is no pushover. They also possess a dynamic and tactically versatile squad. Of particular note is their interior defensive powerhouse, Liu Chuanxing, who will take on the responsibility of countering Shanghai's foreign player, Lofton, in this game. Liu Chuanxing, with his outstanding height advantage and solid under-the-basket skills, always manages to create significant trouble for opponents on the defensive end. Facing a powerful foreign player like Lofton, Liu Chuanxing's defensive performance will undoubtedly become one of the key factors determining the direction of the game! Who will emerge victorious remains to be seen. This matchup not…

Translation of the content: Cui Xiaolong is in an awkward position as he gains attention, but Shanxi seems more willing to meet his demands. It is well-known that teams like Guangdong, Shanxi, and even unnamed northern teams have shown interest in him. The transfer window has been open for two days, yet there is still no clear outcome. The reason for this is that all parties are negotiating with Jiangsu team. Many fans are curious and speculate about where he will end up. Let's first acknowledge his situation; his poor performance this year does not reflect his true abilities. As a draft pick from the NBL, Cui Xiaolong's potential may only be a qualified rotation player for a team like Guangdong. Physically, he may not be better than Huang Rongqi, but in terms of reliability, he is far superior. As for his final destination, it involves complex interests between the player and the club. Let's explore this carefully. From the perspective of the player's personal wishes, going to Shanxi might be the best choice. Both Chen Pengyudi and Jia Mingru of the Shanxi team struggle to be considered qualified point guards, and Cui Xiaolong's three-year Class B contract is about to expire. Afterward, he will undoubtedly seek a higher-paying Class C contract. Shanxi has invested heavily in recruitment in recent years, spending more freely than Hongyuan. The initiative for Cui Xiaolong's trade lies with the team, and it would be hard to refuse if Zhang Mingchi is included. Jiangsu has many guards with similar conditions, so they don't particularly care…

Zhejiang Guangsha hosted Shanxi Men's Basketball Team in a match between the top two teams in the league! Shanxi Men's Basketball Team has always been known as the "King of Reversals," with Zhang Ning ranking first in the league for scoring in crucial moments of the fourth quarter. Therefore, it's uncertain whether Shanxi can leave Guangsha's home court unscathed! However, although Shanxi Men's Basketball Team has a good record, the atmosphere within the team is not great. In the previous game, Shanxi's head coach Pan Jiang criticized the team for not playing selflessly enough and not being aggressive enough in rebounding. They were often led by weaker teams for too long, not taking their opponents seriously, and showing a relaxed attitude. Zhang Ning scolded his teammates for not even being able to grab rebounds. Goodwin wants to see the Shanxi team from the beginning of the season, a team that shares the ball selflessly and trusts their teammates. At the start of the game, both sides were cautious in the first quarter, with frequent misses and clangs of iron. Neither the foreign players nor the domestic players could find their rhythm, and Shanxi Men's Basketball Team ended the first quarter with a slight lead over Zhejiang Guangsha. The second quarter saw Zhejiang Guangsha explode, outscoring Shanxi 30-19. Shanxi was completely stifled defensively, while Zhejiang Guangsha executed their tactics with ease. With multiple players contributing offensively, Shanxi's head coach Pan Jiang realized that they would have to approach the game with a difficult mindset. The players struggled to make breakthroughs, and…

In recent days, there have been many rumors online that the Guangdong team wants to make a trade with the Jiangsu team, which is to exchange the young forward Peng Shijun with the Jiangsu team's backcourt player Cui Xiaolong. This transaction can be said to have a lot of room for operation. Why is this so? Mainly because both of them have had some conflicts with their teams, and they seem unwilling to play for their respective teams. Peng Shijun is considered a super rookie on the Guangdong team's front line. When he was in the youth team, Peng Shijun was a "big king" on the court, so both the team and Guangdong team fans have very high expectations for him. However, it is regrettable that he has been in conflict with the Guangdong team for more than two seasons. It seems that neither side looks at each other pleasingly. This season, the Guangdong team did not even register him, meaning that Peng Shijun is now unemployed. Since he still has relevant contracts with the Guangdong team previously, it is also difficult for him to go to other CBA teams to play privately. In order to maintain his state, according to understanding, Peng Shijun is currently training in Nanjing. As for Cui Xiaolong? This season, it seems that he is also unhappy with the Jiangsu team. In recent times, he was directly benched by the Jiangsu team's head coach Yi Li, and did not get any playing time at all. Obviously, the conflict between Cui Xiaolong and the Jiangsu team…

The second stage of this season's CBA regular season is in full swing, and recently there has been a lot of buzz about the dark horse Shanghai men's basketball team achieving 13 consecutive victories. With traditional powerhouses such as the Guangdong team and Liaoning team gradually dropping out of the championship race due to foreign aid issues and injury problems, new teams such as Guangsha, Shanxi, and Shanghai have become the new favorites among fans. What stands out is that unlike teams like Shanghai, Shanxi, and Guangsha, which dominated the standings with phenomenal records in the first stage, Shanghai once fell to the bottom of the standings in the first stage of the regular season. Fortunately, with the strong addition of foreign aid Lofton and the return of core center Wang Zhelin, Shanghai has returned to the ranks of championship contenders. After securing 13 consecutive wins, who will end Shanghai's winning streak has become the biggest point of focus at present. Recently, Lofton, the main foreign aid of the Shanghai team, announced an important decision in an interview, which is to help the Shanghai team win the championship and not consider returning to the NBA league for the time being. In other words, Lofton will not consider returning to the NBA league plan for the time being, and helping the Shanghai team win the championship has become the first goal. It should be noted that Lofton still possesses the personal ability to compete in the NBA league today, but he just needs a new opportunity to showcase his skills. If…

Official Announcement! Super Foreign Aid Signs Back, Once Scored 20 Points and 9 Rebounds in the NBA, The Dark Horse is Really Rich and Willful In the "Foreign Aid Life-and-Death Game" of the CBA: Why does Shanxi team change players like changing knives? "On the CBA court, foreign aid is the soul of winning, but the soul cannot be used in the wrong place." This sentence is correct. Recently, there has been a lot of noise about the replacement of foreign aid by Shanxi Fenjiu Team - cutting Walter Lemon Jr. and re-signing Harry Giles. Is this a smart operation or a helpless adventure? Let's explore it. First, let's look at the data. Lemon played 4 games for Shanxi team, averaging only 5.5 points, and even more absurdly, he scored zero in two games. As a foreign aid, such performance is really ridiculous. CBA teams want not just a vase, but a savior who can stand up in critical moments. What's the problem? Lemon's personal ability is actually not bad. He has had eye-catching performances in other leagues, but he is not adapting to the CBA. His offensive mode is too single, mainly relying on breakthroughs and layups. Facing the tough defense and fast-paced games of the CBA, he seems to have few options. Moreover, Shanxi team emphasizes overall tactics, and Lemon failed to integrate into them, which also made him "not long-lasting". After cutting Lemon, Shanxi team operated efficiently and quickly signed back the old acquaintance Giles. This decision reflects both the club's decisiveness and the team's obsession with…

Shanxi Fenjiu Men's Basketball Team's operations have once again caught people's attention, with foreign aid Lamon playing a "farewell game" shortly after taking the court, followed by the swift re-signing of former NBA player Harry Giles. This rapid adjustment naturally raises curiosity: Can Shanxi rely on this returning big man to make a breakthrough this season? Although their regular season performance has been impressive, will the constant changes in foreign aid become a ticking time bomb? Let's delve into the story behind this "gamble." Lamon, the foreign aid in question, truly arrived quickly and left just as fast. As an outside player, his performance in the CBA was somewhat disappointing, averaging only 5.5 points per game and even scoring zero in two matches. In the CBA, where high standards are set for foreign players, it's not an exaggeration to say that any college league's main player might perform better. It cannot be denied that Lamon had some ability to break through, but the problem lies in his overly individualistic style, which was completely incompatible with Shanxi's team tactics. This is why, during his four games with Shanxi, he did little more than lower the morale of fans, bringing no significant change to the team. Ultimately, Shanxi's management made what could be called an "unfeeling" decision: to cut Lamon and bring back Giles, who they had worked with a year prior. This is akin to firing your usual chef right before the end of the year because the meal lacked flavor, then immediately rehiring last year's chef who excelled at making…

The CBA official website shows that Shanxi Fenjiu has re-signed Harry Giles and cancelled the registration of foreign player Walter Lemon Jr. This is quite dramatic. On December 24 last year, Shanxi cancelled Harry Giles' registration, and just 10 days later, Lemon was cut. Lemon played 4 games for Shanxi, scoring 12 points against Shenzhen; 0 points against Guangsha; 10 points against Jilin; and 0 points against Qingdao. In these 4 games, Lemon had two games with 0 points, averaging 5.5 points per game. Such statistics are not up to par for a small foreign aid. Shanxi's goal this season is definitely not just to make the playoffs. They have consistently been in the top four in the regular season. Looking at the quality of their foreign aid signings, even Yang Ming said that Shanxi has the potential to reach the finals. Lemon's performance in these 4 games was average. His main offensive mode is attacking the basket, but when he can't score, it's easy for opponents to launch quick counterattacks, which can be very demoralizing for the team. Re-signing Giles makes sense, ensuring that the team has two interior and two perimeter foreign players, making the team's lineup more balanced. Shanxi's three foreign players, Diawara, Goodwin, and Giles, all have the ability to play in the NBA, at least as a substitute for 10 minutes. Giles played for multiple teams in the NBA, averaging 7 points, 4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 14.1 minutes during his time with the Kings. In a game where the Kings defeated the Hawks,…
