In the CBA regular season, Liaoning lost to Guangsha with a score of 88-101. After the game, Yang Ming stated: "In the third quarter, we completely failed to execute on both offense and defense. We were slow to respond to our opponents' defensive strategies, including the pick-and-roll plays by their small and big foreign players. We still have some deficiencies in matching their intensity. Zhao Jiwei's return for the second game meant that our ball handling was not as seasoned as in the playoffs. However, we still had time to adjust when we made mistakes against Guangsha. Currently, Guangsha is a unique team in the league, with their offensive and defensive strategies having been maintained for several years. They are the strongest contenders for the championship if they stay healthy." These comments mainly highlight Guangsha's capabilities. The unexpected outbursts from Brown and Knight in this game were something Liaoning did not anticipate. Their perfect performances in the second half spurred the whole team. Yang Ming specifically mentioned Guangsha's foreign players, acknowledging that the loss was due to this factor. He also emphasized that "Guangsha's offensive and defensive strategies have been consistent for years," as every time Guangsha faces Liaoning, they double-team the small foreign player, a strategy that has always been effective. This is why Liaoning found themselves so passive. Even though they lost, Yang Ming still affirmed his team. Zhao Jiwei's current form is not yet at its best, and Zhang Zhenlin has not played. Despite this, they managed to hold their own in the first half, which Yang…

On January 5th, the CBA regular season is in full swing. The situation of Liaoning team is highly concerned by everyone. The team has been somewhat unstable recently, with their ranking once dropping. Fortunately, they have managed to secure victories in subsequent matches and have now returned to the top four in the standings. In addition, Liaoning team has not stopped their recruitment efforts, with the addition of big foreign aid Patton. Due to registration issues, Patton did not participate in any games after joining the team, but he has now finally completed his registration. With Patton's arrival, Liaoning team's 12-man roster is about to be adjusted. The backcourt of Liaoning team is now well-staffed, with Zhao Jiwei returning from injury and foreign aids Wells and Fergie also on board. Yan Shouqi made a comeback from illness in the last game, scoring 20 points against Jilin. Wang Lanqin is also gradually improving, so Liaoning team does not need to worry about their backcourt anymore. The small forward position is currently a weak point for Liaoning team, mainly due to Zhang Zhenlin's injury absence. Yang Ming is currently using Zhao Lishou and Yu Zechen. However, these two players have not been consistent in their performances, forcing Yang Ming to sometimes play three guards. This strategy works against average teams, but when facing teams with strong frontlines, such as Beijing team, it becomes problematic. Fortunately, Liaoning team has signed Weber, who will bring improvements upon his arrival. The frontline now has reinforcements thanks to Patton's addition. The lineup is clear, consisting of…

According to well-known player agent Dong Hao, Guangdong Southern Tigers have officially offered a contract to 1.80m guard Walker, who previously played for NBL's Hong Kong Aurochs. Dong Hao recommended Walker to Guangdong's general manager Zhu Fangyu through private connections. Additionally, the small foreign player Les, who only played less than 5 minutes in total, has been cut by the team but received his full monthly salary of $20,000, including accommodation and meals, which is quite lucrative. You might say that Guangdong Southern Tigers are short on funds, yet they seem to be signing mediocre foreign players quite frequently, such as Barton, Arms, and Les. Even if they are paid monthly, the cumulative cost would still amount to around 250,000to250,000 to 250,000to300,000. If they had directly signed a good small foreign player, their record wouldn't have been hovering between 8th and 10th place. The current offer to Walker, who has a height disadvantage, can only serve as a temporary solution. It seems the club has decided to wait until the NBA layoff wave in February to seek a suitable small foreign player to sign. In the home game against Beijing Royal Fighters, Zhejiang Guangsha's new recruit Boban will make his debut. The team is currently at the top of the leaderboard, so maintaining a stable lineup, filling gaps, and avoiding injuries are the most important tasks. Beijing Royal Fighters have a strong frontcourt, and Guangsha fans can look forward to seeing Boban face off against Salinger, Shen Zijie, and Zou Yuchen. If these three Beijing frontcourt players do not gain…

At 10 AM! 12 Hours After Liaoning Beats Jilin 102-81, Yang Ming Receives Good News, Liu Ziqing Waits No More On January 5th, Beijing time, the flames of domestic basketball reignited as sports enthusiasts focused on a key match in the CBA regular season – the Northeast Derby between Jilin and Liaoning men's basketball teams. This game was filled with many highlights, especially for Liaoning, who were determined to win this revenge match after suffering a crushing defeat in an away game previously. The entire team was eager to regain their footing in this match. The game started with Liaoning taking the initiative and quickly gaining control of the court. Ferg and Han Dejun worked well together in the paint, continuously attacking Jilin's basket, with their powerful inside play making it difficult for the opponents to defend. On the outside, Zhao Jiwei teamed up with Wells, unleashing a barrage of three-pointers, drives, and passes, playing with great flair. In contrast, Jilin struggled offensively, seemingly stifled by Liaoning's high-pressure defense, scoring only 14 points in a single quarter. After the first quarter, Liaoning had established a 19-point lead, which served as a solid foundation for the victory throughout the game. Under Zhao Jiwei's skillful organization and coordination, the team's offense flowed smoothly, ultimately leading to Liaoning's decisive victory over Jilin with a score of 102 to 81, successfully avenging their previous loss. However, the good news for Liaoning did not end there. Less than 12 hours after the game, at 10 AM, renowned media personality and scout Zhao Tanchang revealed a…

On January 4th, Beijing time, Liaoning Men's Basketball successfully avenged Jilin with a 21-point victory. The reason behind it is simple: No. 3 Zhao Jiwei has returned. The Northeast Derby unfolded once again as Liaoning faced Jilin. The main reason for Liaoning's 21-point victory was the return of Zhao Jiwei. Although he came off the bench and only played for 25 minutes, he managed to score 7 points and grab 5 rebounds, which can be considered average. However, he had 13 assists without any turnovers, indicating that the brain of Liaoning team has returned. This game saw three people directly benefit from Zhao Jiwei's return, experiencing a massive outbreak. The most benefited is undoubtedly Yan Shouqi, who scored 20 points in just 23 minutes. Zhao Jiwei kept feeding him the ball, and Yan Shouqi was also making three-pointers like crazy. Since both Yan Shouqi and Zhao Jiwei were substitutes in this game, the result was that Zhao Jiwei's return allowed him to pass the ball exceptionally well and accurately. Moreover, due to his excellent shooting form, Zhao Jiwei's passes always reached him precisely. It must be said that although they play in the same position, after Zhao Jiwei's return, the one who benefits the most is undoubtedly Yan Shouqi. He can attack, defend, and play efficiently. His current state has also returned, and he has been able to stay with Liaoning for so many years, taking responsibility in critical moments. Indeed, he has played a significant role and made great contributions. Another person who benefits is Han Dejun. He finally…

The suspense surrounding two major topics of interest has been officially revealed: Will Liaoning's backcourt core player Zhao Jiwei return to play against Jilin, and will new foreign player Patton make his debut? It has been confirmed that Zhao Jiwei will be included in Liaoning's 12-man roster for the match against Jilin, which means he is officially returning. However, whether he will play and for how long will depend on the arrangements of head coach Yang Ming. It is believed that Jiwei will likely play for a few minutes as he has not played for some time. Coach Yang mainly wants him to readjust through this match against Jilin to prepare for the next game against Guangsha. Patton, however, will not be able to play against Jilin as his registration documents are incomplete. But there's no need to worry; once the documents are complete, registration can be done quickly. In front of the camera, Patton expressed that he feels he has integrated into Liaoning quite quickly and is in good condition, eager to play in a match. Patton also praised his teammates for being very friendly and getting along well with everyone. Patton speaks the truth; the Liaoning family never bullies newcomers. Regardless of your skills or how long you've been with Liaoning, everyone respects each other, and it's always harmonious! Coach Yang Ming is taking precautions to ensure a stable victory in the second round of the Northeast Derby. Not only did he lead the team to train half an hour earlier on the court, but young player Huang…

On January 4th, Beijing time, the 26th round of the CBA regular season saw the defending champion Liaoning play away against Jilin. In this game, Zhao Jiwei returned and the team's offensive state was hot from the start, launching a 16-5 offensive and then taking full control, with the point difference constantly widening to establish an advantage of more than 30 points. Jilin once narrowed the score, but Liaoning re-opened the gap and eventually won 102-81. After Jilin lost Jones, their strength dropped significantly. At first, they could still compete with Liaoning, but they quickly fell into a passive position. Wang Lanchen hit a three-pointer for Liaoning, followed by continuous scoring, and Willis scored in a counterattack to take a 16-5 lead. Wu Changze hit a three-pointer to stop the bleeding, but Liaoning continued to score, and Jilin couldn't keep up with the rhythm, and the point difference was further widened. Kizlink hit a three-pointer, Zhao Jiwei responded with a three-pointer, Foger broke through to score, and the point difference widened to over 20 points. Kizlink hit another three-pointer, and Liaoning led 33-14 at the end of the first quarter. In the second quarter, Liaoning's offensive momentum remained strong, with Yan Shouqi hitting two consecutive three-pointers to directly widen the point difference to 30 points. Jia Hao hit a three-pointer to stop the bleeding, and Jilin's shooting felt somewhat revived, able to score continuously, but Yan Shouqi hit another three-pointer, maintaining a fiery momentum to help the team maintain the lead. Fu Hao also scored under the basket, Big Bear…

On January 4th, Beijing time, several explosive news broke out in the CBA! Guangdong Hongyuan officially announced the termination of cooperation with small foreign aid Les. The official announcement stated that the team will continue to look for high-quality foreign aid, and there are also media reports that Zhu Fangyu is listening to foreign aid offers from various agents. On the Liaoning men's basketball side, after signing the big foreign aid Patton, there are new moves. According to European basketball reporter Chema de Lucas, former NBA player James Webb III is expected to join the Liaoning men's basketball team of the CBA. Webb is 31 years old, 2.06 meters tall, and plays as a forward. He briefly played for the NBA Nets during the 17-18 season. It is worth noting that Webb participated in the Americas Cup qualifiers with Fogg in 20 years. He will be the seventh foreign aid signed by Liaoning this season! There are also reports that Zhao Jiwei has arrived in Jilin with the team and is expected to return early. Guangdong's early termination of cooperation with Les did not come as a surprise to fans. After all, the team initially positioned Les as a temporary worker, and no one expected him to bring much help to Guangdong. Indeed, since joining Guangdong, Les has scored zero points, and the promise to reduce Xu Jie's burden eventually became a bubble. The reason why Zhu Fangyu quickly cut Les was because Les' skills were too poor, unable to alleviate Xu Jie's pressure, and still occupying the salary cap.…

The second stage of the CBA league is in full swing. Recently, Jones of the Jilin team has been plagued by injuries. He has not been able to play since December 26th, and it is unknown when he will return. However, he also took the time to accept an interview with a media person, discussing the current state of Chinese men's basketball. A media person asked Jones who he thought was the most powerful player in the CBA. Jones thought for a moment and said that he felt Guo Ailun was the best five years ago, but now Zhao Jiwei and Zhao Rui are the best. It is unclear whether this view can be accepted by most fans, as many may feel it is biased. Players like Yi Jianlian, Zhou Qi, and Hu Jinqiu are also very powerful. However, Jones also mentioned that because he plays as a guard, he chose the best players from among the guards. Jones has been in the CBA since 2013 and has played for nearly 11 years, changing teams multiple times. Starting from Liaoning, he has been to Jilin, Shanxi, Qingdao, Nanjing, Tongxi, and Xinjiang. This season, he returned to Jilin, so he has seen many players in the CBA. Based on his resume, he is qualified to evaluate the current CBA players. Jones said he watched Guo Ailun play when he was still a child and felt that he grew every year. However, Guo Ailun has been plagued by injuries in recent years and is no longer the best player. He believes that…

At 14:10 in the afternoon, Yang Ming led his team to safely land in Changchun, Jilin, in preparation for the away game against the Jilin team. The much-anticipated new foreign player of Liaoning Basketball Team, Patton, also arrived in Changchun with the team. It is expected that he will make his debut for Liaoning in the match against Jilin. Regarding Patton's clearance letter, there was a delay due to personal reasons, including the birth of his child. This caused an issue as the registration period had crossed into the new year, necessitating a new clearance letter. However, this should be a straightforward process, with FIBA expected to send a new fax. The match between Liaoning and Jilin is scheduled for January 4th, leaving ample time for Patton's debut. To avoid any missteps against Jilin, Liaoning has urgently called up their core guard Zhao Jiwei and rookie Huang Qiushi for immediate support. Zhao Jiwei and Huang Qiushi, accompanied by assistant coach Wu Naiqun, arrived in Changchun from Shenyang. Zhao Jiwei was seen wearing a hat and mask, taking precautions against the flu, which had previously caused Yan Shouqi to miss two games. Fortunately, after a few days of rest, Yan Shouqi appears to be in better condition and has joined the team in Changchun. Zhao Jiwei's early arrival in Changchun suggests a high likelihood of his return to the court against Jilin. If he were only coming to cheer on his teammates, he could have arrived on the 3rd or 4th. His early arrival indicates the importance of training with new…
