On January 2nd, Beijing time, Zhao Rui finally made an official apology for his collision with the referee during the CBA "New Year's Day Battle" between Xinjiang and Shandong, which caused significant trouble. Zhao Rui stated that due to poor personal emotional management, he engaged in an uncalm behavior of colliding with the referee. Here, he solemnly offers his deepest apologies to everyone affected. Despite Zhao Rui's timely apology, the CBA officials will still impose additional penalties on him. Referring to past experiences and relevant regulations, the CBA company is likely to issue a heavy penalty of a six-game suspension plus a fine of over 200,000 yuan. On the other hand, the first week of CBA All-Star voting results have been released, with Hu Jinqiu and Zhao Rui becoming the top vote-getters for the South and North respectively. Notably, Xu Jie received 294,315 votes, surpassing Zhao Rui to become the All-Star guard vote king. On the Liaoning side, Zhao Jiwei, who had been absent from several games due to injury, officially joined the team for their trip to Jilin and is expected to make an early return. Everyone has watched basketball for so many years, but this is the first time they've seen a player dare to directly confront a referee. Zhao Rui has previously engaged in "self-destruction," but never had unnecessary physical contact with a referee. After the incident, Zhao Rui was also very regretful, as it was just a momentary lapse of reason where he "lost his head" and pushed the referee. "After calming down, I deeply reflected.…

Currently, Liaoning fans are most concerned about two things: one is the condition of the big foreign aid Patton, when will he play, and how strong is his ability. The second is the injuries of Zhao Jiwei and Zhang Zhenlin. Patton has been training with the team in Beijing, mainly focusing on shooting, as he just arrived and needs to adjust to the time difference. Before the game between Liaoning and Shougang, Yang Ming stated that Patton would not participate in this match. It can be confirmed that Patton is stronger than Ture. Judging from his shooting feel for three-pointers, with a record of 6 out of 6, he definitely has a good shot. Combined with his NBA experience, he won't be too bad. Last season, he hurriedly played in the CBA, although he was just a passer-by, but his characteristics were still shown, which is a significant role in defense and actively grabbing rebounds. Patton doesn't need to score explosively in Liaoning, because there are Foger and Wells for scoring. What he needs to do is to grab more rebounds and provide more rebound security for the team. Zhang Zhenlin's injury is to the soft tissue around the right hip joint and the gluteus maximus, which requires time to rest. Because he has many new and old injuries, he needs to thoroughly recover before playing again. The team needs Zhang Zhenlin to save energy for the playoffs. Zhao Jiwei's injury is still serious, and he has to go to the hospital for treatment every day. It's not just a…

Losing to Liaoning's weakened lineup, which was missing Zhao Jiwei and Zhang Zhenlin with their big foreign player yet to arrive, the hundredth round of the Liaoning-Guangdong showdown ended with Guangdong's defeat in Shenyang. Throughout the game, Guangdong seemed to be constantly on the defensive, at a clear disadvantage. Facing Yang Ming's tactics that alternated between zone defense and man-to-man defense, Du Feng appeared to have no effective countermeasures, resulting in Guangdong being "technically knocked out" by Liaoning. Some basketball commentators analyzed that the fundamental reason for Guangdong's loss was the lack of a scoring small forward who could handle the ball, especially in the crucial fourth quarter when no one could score. Guangdong did have a small forward; the previously announced signing of the small foreign player Les had also made it onto the game roster. However, oddly enough, he did not play, leaving Xu Jie once again in a desperate situation. After the game, Guangdong's team reporter Guan Xin revealed that Les had a falling out with the team and didn't even show up at the arena that night, let alone play in the game! Guan Xin disclosed during a live broadcast that Les had shown a rather obvious attitude problem in both training and matches. Despite Du Feng registering him for the Liaoning-Guangdong battle, Les claimed he had something urgent right before the game and did not appear at the venue. Guangdong is well-known in the CBA for its strict management of foreign players, never allowing troublemakers to disrupt team discipline. Previously, some high-profile foreign players like…

On January 1st, Beijing time, the 25th round of the CBA will witness a heavyweight match, Liaoning's third battle in their devil schedule, against Beijing BAW, ranked 7th but still one of the favorites to win the championship this season. The two teams met on December 20th last month, with a weakened Liaoning squad facing Beijing without Zhou Qi. The battle was fierce, with Liaoning leading the score under the leadership of Ferg in the first three quarters. However, in the final quarter, Liaoning's offensive slowed down due to physical issues, and Zhang Zhenlin was forced to withdraw from the game after being accidentally injured by Fan Ziming. Beijing staged a great comeback under the leadership of Zeng Fanbo and Chen Yingjun. Zeng Fanbo contributed 4 blocks in a single quarter (all against Ferg), with a total of 7 blocks throughout the game, overshadowing everyone else, and even blocking Ferg's last-second three-pointer attempt (Ferg scored 45 points in the game). Liaoning eventually lost to Beijing by a margin of 1 point, causing Yang Ming to be somewhat furious. Despite Yang Ming's frustration, Liaoning's subsequent record did not plummet as a result. Instead, they became more and more courageous. After Yang Ming abandoned Ture, Liaoning has won four consecutive victories, defeating Fujian, Guangzhou, Xinjiang, and Guangdong. On the other hand, Beijing has struggled, narrowly avoiding defeat to Liaoning but then suffering consecutive losses to Tianjin and Shandong, winning only one of their last four games. Beijing BAIC's recent record has been dismal, with only four wins and six losses in the…

In a recent basketball match between Guangdong and Liaoning, Guangdong suffered a defeat at the hands of Liaoning, despite the absence of key players Zhao Jiwei and Zhang Zhenlin from Liaoning's lineup. The game marked the hundredth encounter between the two teams, with Guangdong ultimately losing in Shenyang. Throughout the match, Guangdong appeared to be on the defensive, struggling against Liaoning's flexible tactics, which included both zone defense and man-to-man defense. Coach Du Feng seemed to have few options to counter these strategies, resulting in Guangdong being "technically knocked out" by Liaoning. Analysts have pointed out that the root cause of Guangdong's loss was their lack of a reliable scoring guard, particularly in the crucial fourth quarter when no one could step up to score. Guangdong did have a small foreign guard, Les, who had been officially signed and was on the roster for the game. However, he mysteriously did not play, leaving Xu Jie isolated and without support once again. After the game, Guangdong's team reporter, Guan Xin, revealed that Les had a falling out with the team and did not even show up at the arena that night, let alone participate in the game! Guan Xin disclosed during a live broadcast that Les had shown noticeable attitude problems during training and matches. Despite Du Feng registering him for the game, Les claimed to have an emergency before the match and did not appear at the venue. Guangdong is known for its strict management of foreign players in the CBA, never allowing troublemakers to disrupt team discipline. Notably, big-name…

Liaoning defeats Guangdong with a score of 95-89, securing their first victory of the season. Throughout the game, Liaoning maintained a significant lead, showcasing their advantage in rebounds, stable free-throw performance, and stronger foreign players. They lived up to their title as defending champions, demonstrating a rich heritage. After the crucial victory, Liaoning received four pieces of good news: Firstly, Zhao Jiwei can rest assured as Wang Lanqin has finally stepped up, performing like Zhao Jiwei himself in this game. He contributed to scoring, organizing, and defense, with a perfect fourth quarter that matched the level of a foreign player. It's said that Xu Jie is like a foreign player, and so is Wang Lanqin. Secondly, Wells is incredibly strong, leading the team forward despite Ferguson's injury. In recent games, Wells has proven to be one of the top-tier foreign players in the CBA, unstoppable with a calm head, knowing when to attack and when to pass, displaying high basketball IQ. The third piece of good news is that the "Xuanming Two Elders," Han Dejun and Li Xiaoxu, still have fuel in their tanks. They are the team's stabilizing force; with them, teammates can confidently shoot without worry. If they miss, it's okay because Liaoning has the rebounds, allowing them to continue shooting. Lastly, the young player Li Huyi was a surprise asset in this game, playing a crucial role in the fourth quarter. With a big heart and unyielding in tough matches, he is absolutely worth cultivating. Currently, Liaoning needs to find an interior foreign player to alleviate the…

This season's Liaoning men's basketball team has been plagued with turmoil. Over the past few months, everyone might be wondering if this is still the same Liaoning team we know? Indeed, injuries and the rotation of foreign players have put this once-dominant CBA team in a rather awkward position. With a record of 14 wins and 7 losses, ranking sixth in the regular season, it's hard to say that this reflects the true style of Liaoning. Since the start of the season, there have been constant issues with foreign players, with changes happening one after another. You might ask, how can you change a foreign player so quickly? Liaoning has indeed undergone major surgery, with foreign player adjustments being quite tough. Look at the initial foreign player lineup at the beginning of the season, Aqiu'er and Sayok. Everyone was quite hopeful when they first took the court, but they didn't stay long before they were quickly benched. What did Aqiu'er and Sayok's departure bring to the team? A huge question mark. Liaoning quickly signed Wells and Ture. This time, they really put in the effort. However, who could have expected that Ture would become like a cobra, biting away all the expectations. Look at Ture's performance in Liaoning, playing 7 times, averaging 9.9 minutes, scoring 2.7 points, grabbing 3 rebounds. With such statistics, he couldn't even be considered a regular player. With these numbers, Liaoning's basketball dream almost went up in smoke. Ture's performance really left fans speechless. He does have height and weight for the inside game, but he…

A strong matchup in the CBA regular season saw Liaoning take on Xinjiang. Liaoning's second stage performance was poor, with more losses than wins against strong teams, and the team was plagued by injuries and a lack of players. In this game, Zhao Jiwei and Zhang Zhenlin were still unable to play, while Fredette played despite illness. Facing the formidable Xinjiang team, their chances of winning were slim, and they would need to perform above their usual level to have a chance. Although Xinjiang also had their fair share of injuries, they were in good form, able to win tough games, and were currently on a four-game winning streak. In this match, Zhao Rui and Qi Lin were absent, with three-point shooting being the key to victory, as well as the battle for rebounds. Xinjiang's starting lineup: Li Yanzhe, Xirzati, Yilifula, Lawson, and Hagens! Liaoning's starting lineup: Fredette, Wang Lianqin, Wells, Li Xiaoxu, and Han Dejun! Both sides started with a minute of missed shots, with Wang Lianqin scoring the first three-pointer, followed by Li Yanzhe's mid-range shot, Fredette's three-pointer, Lawson's drive to the basket, Wang Lianqin's turnover, Hagens' open three-pointer, Fredette's airball, Lawson's short shot, Wells' three-pointer opening the scoring, Lawson's turnover leading to a technical foul, Wells' mid-range shot extending Liaoning's lead. Yi Li's buzzer-beater, Wells' layup, Hagens' eight-second violation, Han Dejun's putback, Li Yanzhe's turnover again, and Wells' response. Xirzati's three-pointer from the top of the arc missed, Wells stepped out of bounds, Lawson's three-pointer missed, Wells' layup, Liaoning led 19-9, forcing Xinjiang to call a timeout.…

Translation of the article content into English: On December 27th, Beijing time, there were news related to Zhao Jiwei, Yang Ming talking about Wells, and Ferg's physical discomfort. Zhao Jiwei cheers for the whole team In a CBA regular season game that ended on the evening of December 26th, Liaoning Men's Basketball faced Guangzhou Team for the third time this season. Liaoning Team was short of personnel, and the game was extremely difficult. Liaoning led in the first quarter, was counterattacked by the opponent in the second quarter, and both sides fought until the last moment. Liaoning won 98:97 with Han Dejun's stable free throws. After the game, Zhao Jiwei congratulated the team on this hard-won victory. Liaoning Team has encountered many difficulties this season, including foreign aid issues, aging personnel, young players not being able to step up, and weak bench lineup strength. However, these problems may be resolved one by one with the arrival of Zhao Jiwei. Therefore, it can be said that although Liaoning Team's problems are serious, the severity and impact will not be as severe as everyone thinks. The key is when Zhao Jiwei will return. Zhao Jiwei's injury is both troublesome and simple. His throat injury will not affect his playing level after returning, but the current situation often recurs, and it is impossible to give a clear answer as to when he can return to the court. However, although Zhao Jiwei cannot quickly return to the court at present, his heart is still with everyone, and it is hoped that he can return…
