Why is it always them? Every time in the second half of the season, Tongxi team seems to deflate like a punctured ball, gradually slipping from the upper half of the leaderboard. Is it a problem of strength, or a psychological issue? Or both? From the previous seasons' rankings of 14th and 13th, to this season's brief entry into the top 10 before falling back to 11th, the reality is that they once again stand at the edge of the playoffs, hesitating outside the door. Meanwhile, Shandong team is enjoying a "spring breeze" scene. In this game, they defeated Tongxi 129-116, not only surpassing Liaoning to rise to third place in the league, but also proved their hard power with a beautiful team victory. On one side is the disappointed Tongxi, on the other side is the thriving Shandong. What exactly is the difference between these two teams? Perhaps, we can get some insights from this game. In fact, Tongxi's problems are not new. Looking at the results of the past few seasons, their trajectory is like an unchanging "routine": they could still rely on their fighting spirit and form to create some surprises at the beginning of the season, but as they enter the second half, their record begins to slide. The 14th place in the 22-23 season and last season's 13th place speak volumes. Although they had a brief moment of glory this year, they have now slipped from the top 10 to 11th, once again facing the dilemma of missing the playoffs. In this game, Tongxi managed…

The CBA regular season has reached its 27th round, with some teams rejoicing and others worrying. The top teams are fiercely competing for the top four and eight spots, while the mid-to-lower ranked teams are struggling for playoff positions. With the change in foreign player usage rules, the league's hierarchy has become increasingly evident. With 19 rounds remaining, the overall situation of the league is basically set, with the top 12 teams (in no particular order) already in place, while the bottom eight teams have become easy targets for points, making it extremely difficult for them to make a comeback due to their lack of strength, which is also the harsh reality of competitive sports. The top 12 teams have been positioned (regardless of order) Looking at the standings, Guangsha, Shanxi, Shandong, Beijing, Xinjiang, Liaoning, Zhejiang, Qingdao, Guangdong, Beikong, Tongxi, and Shanghai have basically secured their spots. The major powers like Guangsha will compete for the regular season championship, while Zhejiang, Qingdao, Guangdong, and Shanghai will vie for the top eight spots. Looking at the points, Tongxi is the weakest among the top 12 and the only team full of suspense. Tongxi's goal now is to maintain their playoff position, but compared to the bottom eight teams, Tongxi has a huge advantage, and securing a spot in the top 12 is almost certain. In summary, the top 12 teams have basically been determined, and it remains to be seen who can achieve the best ranking. However, in the last few rounds, the major powers may intentionally lose games to choose…

On December 30th, the CBA regular season witnessed two pivotal matches: one where Shanxi achieved a significant victory over Jilin, and another where Shanghai managed to secure a hard-fought win against Tongxi in overtime. These two games have brought about notable changes in the CBA landscape, with both Shanxi and Shanghai seeing their rankings rise further, and the competition for the top four spots heating up. Starting with the match between Shanxi and Jilin, Shanxi emerged victorious at home with an impressive score of 116-83. The game was largely devoid of suspense as Shanxi demonstrated their formidable offensive and defensive capabilities from the outset, particularly with eight players scoring in double figures, showcasing a fearsome multi-pronged attack. During the opening stages, the scores between Shanxi and Jilin were closely contested, but Jilin's brief lead was quickly overturned by Shanxi, which then turned into a one-sided assault by Shanxi. By the end of the first quarter, Shanxi had established a 14-point lead. In the second quarter, Shanxi's offensive momentum showed no signs of slowing down, while Jilin attempted to counterattack but failed to find any breakthroughs. By halftime, Shanxi had extended their lead to 19 points. The third quarter saw Jilin's offense stall completely, allowing Shanxi to further expand their advantage, effectively turning the game into garbage time. In the fourth quarter, Shanxi maintained full control of the game, ultimately securing a resounding victory with a final score of 116-83. This match highlighted Shanxi's overall offensive performance, with standout plays from players like Goodwin, Yuan Shuai, and Diawara. Although some Jilin…

As the CBA league progresses, this season has already entered the fierce competition of the first 24 rounds. Although the performance of foreign players from various teams is eye-catching, the competitive state of domestic players is also attracting attention, especially on the scoring list, where the rise of several young players is impressive. So, who stands out on the scoring list this season and has become the focus of fans' attention? According to the latest data, Lin Wei tops the domestic player scoring list with an average of over 20 points per game. Let's take a look at the top ten domestic players on the CBA scoring list and see which players have made remarkable achievements this season. Lin Wei (Tongxi Team) - The Rise of Young Players The 21-year-old Lin Wei has shown excellent scoring ability this season, becoming the leader of the scoring list. With an average of 20.9 points, plus 3.3 rebounds and 5 assists, he demonstrates his comprehensive basketball skills. Although Tongxi Team's overall performance is average, ranking 11th, Lin Wei has scored double digits in 20 consecutive games, showing his potential that cannot be ignored. If he can maintain this state, his future career will undoubtedly be full of promise. Hu Jinqiu (Guangsha Team) - Absolute Dominance in the Paint As Guangsha Team's pillar in the paint, Hu Jinqiu ranks second with outstanding statistics of 19.8 points and 8.5 rebounds. His efficient offensive ability and excellent rebounding protection have enabled Guangsha Team to currently rank first in the league. As a mature 27-year-old player, Hu…

This season in the CBA has been incredibly competitive due to the absence of a dominant super team, giving multiple teams a chance at the championship. In the first stage, one team stood out with an impressive record of 9 wins and 1 loss, ranking them first in the CBA. As a traditional powerhouse, many fans believed they had a good shot at winning the title this year. However, as the second stage commenced, they began to reveal more and more issues. In their last four games, they suffered three losses and only one win, causing them to drop out of the top six in the rankings. If these players are not replaced, it seems unlikely that the team will be able to secure the championship. In the CBA regular season match between Xinjiang and Beijing, both traditional strong teams, the game was fiercely contested. Beijing led in the first half, but in the second half, their offense stalled, ultimately resulting in a 108:97 reversal by Xinjiang. After this loss, their record stands at 16 wins and 7 losses, dropping them to seventh place in the standings, outside the top six. Over the past four games, they have won only one (a narrow 110:109 victory over Tongxi, almost suffering a buzzer-beater), and if we look at the entire second stage, they have only managed 7 wins against 6 losses, with victories mostly coming against weaker opponents. Below is a list of the teams Beijing has faced during the second stage: Teams they've beaten include: Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Beikong, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Liaoning…

According to well-known media personality San Tu Dai Ci, the 2.24-meter center Boban will join Zhejiang Guangsha to strengthen the team's last shortcoming. It is well known that due to the foreign aid policy of 4 quarters and 7 people, teams aiming for the championship basically have a configuration of tall domestic inside players + foreign aid. However, Zhejiang Guangsha has experienced a significant decline in Xu Zhonghao's form, although they are still ranked first. Relying solely on Hu Jinqiu to support the inside is far from enough, especially after losing to Shanxi Fenjiu. The Guangsha management realized how important it is to have a full-sized No. 5 position player with a strong presence in the paint, so they quickly signed Boban. Boban is currently 36 years old and played for the Rockets last season. During the offseason, he went to Europe to play but was cut by Fenerbahce due to his slow mobility. Although he is no longer young and cannot play high-intensity games, he is expected to be more than capable of guarding the paint in the CBA, considered an enhanced version of Haddadi. If Boban can create chemistry with the team after joining, Zhejiang Guangsha will choose to keep one between Knight and Carlton and replace a wing ball-handling foreign aid. With their luxurious domestic player lineup, Zhejiang Guangsha's paper strength is undoubtedly the team closest to the championship trophy this season. Before the Liaoning-Guangdong battle, Guangdong men's basketball head coach Du Feng revealed Hu Mingxuan's injury. Hu Mingxuan will rest for three months due to a…
