On January 12, 2025, the 30th round of the CBA regular season continued with several exciting matchups, some of which were not only dramatic but also made the rankings for this season even more tense. Guangdong managed to narrowly defeat Beikong with a last-minute buzzer-beater, while Liaoning and Xinjiang failed to maintain their leads in crucial moments, ultimately losing to Qingdao and Nanjing respectively. This round of games added a lot of suspense to the competition between teams, especially on the leaderboard, where there is only a difference of 1 point between the 2nd and 8th places, making the situation extremely complex. In the home game against Beikong, Guangdong demonstrated their resilience and ability to seize key moments. The entire match was full of ups and downs, with Guangdong relying on Xu Xin's crucial goal in the final moments to narrowly win against Beikong with a score of 99-98, continuing their winning streak. At the start of the game, Beikong quickly took the lead, particularly showing activity on the offensive end. However, Guangdong gradually regained their rhythm in the critical moments, especially with Xu Jie's outstanding performance, allowing Guangdong to maintain a slight advantage in the last quarter. The climax of the game occurred in the last minute. With Guangdong's defense slackening, Beikong tied the score with Tres' three-pointer. Just as the game entered its final second, Xu Xin calmly made a layup to deliver the final shot of the game, helping Guangdong secure a victory over Beikong by a margin of just 1 point. In another highly anticipated match,…

A major upset occurred in the 29th round of the CBA league, as Xinjiang Men's Basketball Team suffered a surprising defeat at home, losing 104-113 to Fujian, who were at the bottom of the rankings. This marks the second home loss for Xinjiang this season, and it was truly unexpected that they would lose to Fujian. Although Xinjiang's shooting percentage looked decent, they lost on rebounds and had 20 turnovers, indicating that their defense was virtually non-existent, and they lacked a core player to step up in critical moments. The entire game lacked leadership. Especially in the second half, Xinjiang completely lost control of the rebounds and perimeter defense, making this loss a disaster. Despite five players scoring over 10 points, they were unable to take control of the game. After the game, star player Qi Lin expressed his dissatisfaction, stating that they were clearly overconfident, as everyone knew Fujian was a team that had long been at the bottom. However, Fujian played hard against Xinjiang, demonstrating remarkable courage and impeccable execution, while Xinjiang's players did not perform as well. In addition to Qi Lin, head coach Liu Wei also expressed his dissatisfaction, saying that some players did not perform well in this game, which was indeed due to overconfidence. He hopes they will take the next game seriously. Following the end of this game, many media outlets believe that Liu Wei should be the one to step down, as he seems increasingly unsuitable for Xinjiang. They are now unable to beat strong teams or weak ones, and they collapse…

113-104, Fujian men's basketball team pulled off a surprise victory against Xinjiang men's basketball team, securing a crucial win. In this highly anticipated match, both teams were locked in a tight battle, with Fujian relying on a strong third quarter to turn the tide. Zeng Lingxuan and Joseph Young scored consecutively to overtake their opponents, and in the final quarter, Xinjiang's attempts to catch up were unsuccessful, allowing Fujian to ultimately claim victory. In this matchup, Luis King contributed 26 points and 13 rebounds, while Joseph Young also scored 34 points with 8 assists, 6 rebounds, and 2 steals. Zeng Lingxuan also managed 15 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 steals. However, what was most gratifying was Zou Yang's performance, as he contributed 13 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, and 4 steals, becoming the invisible hero behind Fujian's upset victory. Looking back at the previous draft, it seems that Zou Yang was indeed seriously underestimated. Zou Yang played for 34 minutes in this game, shooting 6 out of 10 from the field, including 1 out of 1 from three-point range, scoring 13 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, and 4 steals, with an on-court plus-minus value as high as +21, second only to foreign player Joseph Young. The statistics alone cannot fully capture Zou Yang's value and role on the court. In a game they won by 9 points, Zou Yang's plus-minus was as high as +21. According to data analysis, when Zou Yang is on or off the court, Fujian's net points per hundred possessions differ by 15.7 points, which demonstrates…

However, as the game progressed, Fujian's counterattack became more intense. Yang's strong performance and the excellent performance of young player Zeng Lingxuan continuously helped Fujian stabilize their lead.

The CBA rankings have been in chaos again overnight. Guangsha has consolidated its top position, Liaoning and Xinjiang have returned to the top four, Beijing has fallen to seventh, Guangdong remains unchanged, and Shanghai is unstoppable, with an actual ranking of 10th. It's really a mixed bag of joy and sorrow for some teams, while the last eight teams have suffered consecutive defeats and are unable to turn the tide.

Currently, the CBA regular season is in progress, and several key matches have recently received significant attention, including the matchup between Beijing Men's Basketball and Zhejiang Guangsha Men's Basketball. Guangsha Men's Basketball ranks first in the league, while Beijing Men's Basketball is among the top four. Ultimately, Guangsha Men's Basketball defeated Beijing Men's Basketball with superior skill. Additionally, Guangsha Men's Basketball newcomer Boban made his debut, showcasing impressive performance against Zhou Qi, although he only played for 7 minutes and scored 4 points with a 3-for-2 shooting record. After the game, head coach Wang Bo stated that Boban is an excellent player but still needs to adapt to the rhythm of the CBA. Guangsha Men's Basketball has consecutively defeated strong opponents like Liaoning Men's Basketball and Beijing Men's Basketball, becoming the top contender for the championship in the new season. Currently, they have a complete lineup and healthy personnel, which presents them with their best opportunity to win the title. It must be acknowledged that the intensity of scoring in CBA games has significantly increased, which has raised the league's popularity, as evidenced by the rise in viewership ratings. However, high-intensity games are also more prone to injuries, and several national-level players have already suffered from such issues, directly impacting China's men's basketball team in the Asian Qualifiers in February. Previously, Hu Mingxuan, a key guard for the Chinese national team, suffered a shoulder dislocation, requiring a three-month recovery period. This not only left Guangdong Men's Basketball short-handed but also dealt a significant blow to the national team without Hu…

On January 1, 2025, a scene unfolded during the match between Xinjiang and Shandong teams that left an impression. Xinjiang team's core player Zhao Rui, after scoring a layup, disputed the referee's decision and, in a fit of emotional agitation, made an aggressive move against the referee, resulting in his disqualification from the game. Subsequently, Zhao Rui engaged in a verbal altercation with netizens on social media, exacerbating the negative impact of the incident. Such an impulsive act not only brought severe consequences for himself, his team, but also had a ripple effect on the entire CBA league. We can't help but ask, why would a professional player like Zhao Rui lose control to such an extent? As a leader and core member of the team, he should set an example for his teammates, maintaining professional restraint at all times. Unfortunately, a moment of impulse led him to commit an egregious act, not only bringing harsh punishment upon himself but also casting a shadow over Xinjiang's championship aspirations this year. The severity of Zhao Rui's five-game suspension is unprecedented, demonstrating the CBA's zero-tolerance stance towards misconduct. The league's strict handling serves as both a punishment for Zhao Rui's excessive behavior and a warning to all players and coaches to remain calm and respect the authority of referees. After all, only by adhering to discipline can we foster a good competitive environment and uphold the fairness and justice of the league. Zhao Rui's absence undoubtedly poses a significant challenge to the Xinjiang team. As a key guard, his loss will have…

CBA regular season round 28 continued with Xinjiang securing a big win against Nanjing and Liaoning easily defeating Sichuan. Below is a brief summary of the matches. ‌[Xinjiang - Nanjing]‌ Nanjing strategically gave up, with Lif and domestic mainstays mostly absent. As a result, they had to rely on the individual abilities of their foreign small forwards to solve problems. Floyd and Harris accounted for 24 out of the team's first quarter 27 points, almost entirely through one-on-one play without significant tactical coordination. Xinjiang, on the contrary, demonstrated excellent teamwork with 13 assists in a single quarter, showcasing a fluid offensive game with everyone contributing, especially successful in breaking through the inside. This allowed them to temporarily lead by three points at 30-27. In the second quarter, the game rhythm remained largely unchanged. Nanjing's lineup depth was stretched thin, with weak domestic players, leaving only the two foreign players to take turns performing. Once their shooting accuracy dropped, the situation became increasingly severe. Xinjiang played with ease, maintaining high efficiency both inside and outside, feeling no pressure. They ended the half with a small scoring spree to solidify their advantage, leading 69-51 by 18 points. The second half progressed steadily, with neither side causing significant waves, and the match lost suspense early. Xinjiang finished with a decisive victory over Nanjing, 124-99. ‌[Liaoning - Sichuan]‌ The match was not particularly smooth, with head coach Han Shuo receiving a technical foul for being dissatisfied with the refereeing, and Han Dejun getting a flagrant foul for pulling someone from behind. The frequent whistles…

The group stage has already been completed during the first window period, with eight teams advancing to the finals. The schedule for the final stage has now been fully determined, starting on February 9th and concluding on the 15th. You can view the specific schedule in the image below.

Overall, there is a lot of suspense, so let's wait and see. All matches in the final stage will be held at the Shaanxi Provincial Stadium. Looking forward to it!
