On January 6th, the CBA league will feature six major battles. From the perspective of competing for the top four spots in the league, aside from the matches between Beikong and Jilin, Shenzhen versus Guangdong (both teams from the same province), and Tianjin hosting Shanghai, which are expected to have minimal impact on the current top four standings, the other three games could significantly influence the upcoming rankings in the CBA league. These include Beijing BAW facing Ningbo away, Liaoning hosting Zhejiang Guangsha, and Shandong High-Speed hosting Tongxi at home. Judging by the overall strength of their opponents, the Shandong team led by coach Qiubiao is the most likely candidate to replace Xinjiang and re-enter the top three of the league. For Beikong, they suffered a one-point defeat in their first encounter with Jilin. Coupled with their current luxurious lineup and consecutive losses, the team is under considerable pressure, especially their head coach Min Lulei, who has faced much criticism. After losing to an undermanned Zhejiang Chouzhou team, Beikong, once hailed as the team with the greatest hope for the top four in the new season, has turned out to be the most disappointing team for fans. Despite having a well-rounded roster with an enviable frontcourt, Beikong struggles to play fluidly against any opponent and finds it hard to decisively win games. The use of players by coach Min has also been questioned, along with the psychological impact of the one-point loss to Jilin in their first match. Whether they can defeat Jilin during the injury period of Liao Sanning…

Liaoning Men's Basketball Team lost at home to Guangsha Men's Basketball Team in a strong matchup. The game was somewhat inexplicable; Liaoning played well in the first half, holding their own against the league leaders. However, unexpectedly, after halftime, they collapsed in the third quarter, losing by 22 points with a score of 36-14, which was unbearable to watch. This directly turned the fourth quarter into garbage time, leaving the home fans speechless and many leaving early. After losing a strong matchup, Liaoning faced three pieces of bad news: Firstly, Zhao Jiwei's state was poor; although his organizational skills were still there, his offense was abysmal. He had a poor shooting performance in the previous game against Jilin, and it was even worse this time, with only 1 out of 8 shots made. Perhaps he should continue playing as a substitute rather than starting. Secondly, Coach Yang Ming lacked good cards and had poor on-site adjustment capabilities. His decision to use zone defense in the third quarter backfired, and he was slow to change strategies. Additionally, he benched the hot-handed Wang Lanqin in the second half and started Zhao Jiwei instead, which were two major blunders that contributed to the team's crushing defeat. The third piece of bad news was the drop in efficiency for Fergie and Wells, with significantly reduced offensive and defensive aggression. They had little impact in the game and were outplayed by Brown, not even performing as well as Wang Lanqin. However, there were also three pieces of good news for Liaoning: Firstly, Wang Lanqin had…

On January 6th, Beijing time, Liaoning Men's Basketball suffered an epic defeat, losing 22 points in one quarter to the Guangsha team, failing to take revenge and being hammered. The new foreign aid didn't help either. Liaoning Men's Basketball suffered a shocking and crazy big defeat. Facing the Guangsha team, they were completely destroyed, especially in the third quarter when they lost 14-36 and 22 points. They really lost their dignity. The new foreign center Patton was useless, and they really couldn't beat their archenemy Zhejiang Guangsha. In recent years, Guangsha and Liaoning can be said to be each other's archenemies. Zhejiang Guangsha always opens fire when they play against Liaoning, hoping to crush them. In this game, both sides played back and forth in the first two quarters, with very close scores. Liaoning only trailed Zhejiang Guangsha by 4 points at that time, and it was uncertain who would win or lose. However, in the third quarter, Liaoning played what could be considered the worst quarter of the season, scoring only 12 points as a team and being brutally beaten 34:12 by Guangsha, instantly widening the point difference to nearly 30 points. It's unbelievable. Liaoning, the champion team with a three-peat dynasty, actually collapsed in one quarter. Do you believe it? At the end of the second quarter, Liaoning had already exposed problems, having difficulty defending against the opponent's foreign aid Brown. Brown went crazy in the third quarter, making shots wildly, various steals and combinations, he and Sun Minghui were humiliating Liaoning. At Liaoning's home court, they directly…

In a CBA regular season match on January 4th, Beijing time, Guangdong defeated Shandong 98-93 at home. Throughout the game, both sides competed fiercely with the score alternating in the lead. Guangdong had a slight lead in the first quarter, but Shandong overtook and extended their advantage to 5 points in the second quarter. However, Shandong did not celebrate for long as Guangdong caught up again in the third quarter, making it an exciting watch. In the final quarter, Guangdong widened the gap and secured the victory. Xu Jie stood out in this game, scoring 22 points, grabbing 4 rebounds, and dishing out 11 assists, earning him the title of "Star of the Game." Gaili from Shandong also scored 22 points. After this game, Guangdong ranked 9th in the standings with a record of 15 wins and 11 losses, while Shandong remained stable at 5th after losing the game, missing the chance to challenge the top 4. Guangdong made many mistakes in this game and only managed to win with the outstanding performance of their three core players. In terms of growth potential, Li Yizhen is considered to have more room than Zhang Wenyi, coupled with his defensive capabilities, Du should give him more opportunities. Zhang Wenyi has performed poorly in two consecutive games; last game, he was intercepted when dribbling past the frontcourt during Xu Jie's rest, and in this game, he missed all five of his three-point attempts. It begs the question, which newcomer would have such an opportunity to waste? Additionally, although Guangdong played better overall than…

On January 6th, Beijing time, the 27th round of the CBA regular season saw defending champions Liaoning host Guangsha. The game started with a seesaw battle between the two teams, with the score not being pulled apart. However, Liaoning's offensive state was poor, gradually falling into a passive situation, only scoring 40 points at halftime. In the second half, Guangsha's offensive momentum was hot, and they scored 36-14 in a single quarter to open up a lead of more than 20 points, making the game lose suspense early. Ultimately, Liaoning lost 88-101 to Guangsha. In this game, Zhao Jiwei continued to come off the bench, with Wells hitting a jumper and then a three-pointer, while Brown completed a 2+1. The two teams were locked in a seesaw battle, with Li Xiaoxu and Wang Lanqin hitting three-pointers, allowing Liaoning to take the initiative. Zhao Yanhao responded with a counterattack to stop the bleeding, followed by a three-pointer, and the two teams were locked in a seesaw battle with the scores alternating in the lead. Patton responded with a two-handed dunk, and Zhao Jia ren hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer, leaving Guangsha trailing Liaoning 21-22 at the end of the first quarter. In the second quarter, Fergie scored on a counterattack, Wang Lanqin hit a three-pointer, Zhao Yanhao also hit a three-pointer, Knight hit a three-pointer, and Guangsha gradually took control of the game, with Han Dejun stopping the bleeding with a dunk under the basket.

CBA regular season, a peak confrontation, Liaoning men's basketball team battles against Guangsha men's basketball team. It was expected to be an evenly matched contest, but unexpectedly, Liaoning team collapsed in the third quarter, making the fourth quarter a waste of time, disappointing the home fans. At the end of the third quarter, Liaoning team trailed Guangsha team by 26 points with a score of 81-55. The first half was very intense and close, but after returning from the locker room, Liaoning team collapsed, unable to defend against the opponent's zone defense and allowing them to continuously make three-point shots. They also lost rebounds and allowed opponents to score second-chance points. Yang Ming is mainly responsible for this tactical failure, with two major blunders: using zone defense and starting Zhao Jiwei while benching Wang Lanqin, who was in hot form. Additionally, Guangsha team's ability to seize opportunities is truly strong, and their integrated offense and defense are worthy of being the top team in the league, earning their title. In the last quarter, Liaoning team did not give up and further increased their defensive intensity. They aimed to emulate Shanxi team and achieve a super comeback, but Wang Bo is not Liu Wei, and Guangsha team is not a young team; they are experienced veterans who would not allow such a thing to happen. Half a quarter passed, Liaoning team scored 16-10 against Guangsha team, recovering 6 points, but the gap remained at 20 points. After that, Guangsha team maintained a double-digit lead, not giving Liaoning team any chance to…

The recent state of Guangsha men's basketball team has really delighted the fans. They continue to firmly occupy the top spot in the CBA standings with a record of 21 wins and 4 losses, as stable as a nail. In this round of matches, Guangsha easily defeated Guangzhou team without any suspense. Victory was like picking up a sheep on the side, incidentally giving Guangzhou team a lesson. You know, this victory is not only about extending their winning streak, but more importantly, they have just introduced Boban, an inside giant who is 2.24 meters tall! As soon as this guy arrived in Hangzhou, the fans began to look forward to it. After all, such a big guy, who wouldn't want to expect his debut? Guangsha's dominance has also forced other teams to step up their efforts, especially Shandong men's basketball team, whose recent performance has been quite surprising! Who would have thought that Shandong team could defeat Xinjiang team away from home in this round of matches, not only ending Xinjiang team's unbeaten home record, but also propelling themselves from sixth place to third! Currently, Shandong men's basketball team has a record of 18 wins and 7 losses, closely following Guangsha and Shanxi. The rise of this dark horse team is really surprising and admirable. Some netizens say: The young guys from Shandong are so energetic. Their sudden rise is astonishing. Originally thought they were just accompanying runners-up, but unexpectedly they soared high, simply becoming the biggest dark horse of this season. Honestly, the recent sense of counterattack by…

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…

The match between Liaoning and Guangsha teams reminded me of many things. From the past to the present, they have played so many times, and Liaoning always wins while Guangsha loses, as if it were destined. However, this time seems a bit different because Guangsha is now playing particularly well. Guangsha has not won against Liaoning since the playoffs in 2014, which is unbearable for anyone, just like when you try your best to do well in an exam but always fall short, and the opponent is always the same person. That year, Guo Ailun and Hardson had a fierce quarrel on the court, almost fighting each other. As a result, Hardson was sent off, and Guo Shiqiang was also sent off, making the scene extremely chaotic. Later, Liu Zhixuan and Xiao He performed a double slip bottom, which still feels funny now. At that time, the players of Guangsha were stunned and did not expect it to happen. Liaoning played very aggressively at that time, not giving Guangsha any chance. They eventually swept Guangsha 3-0. Although the score looks simple, each game was played very toughly. Guangsha's strength was actually not bad at that time, but they always made mistakes at critical moments. It seemed that they became nervous as soon as they saw Liaoning and did not play as smoothly as usual. When Li Chunjiang was the coach, he felt particularly unwilling every time he lost to Liaoning, but there was nothing he could do because Liaoning indeed always played better at critical moments. In those years of…

The policy of allowing only one foreign player per team in the fourth quarter highlights the importance of a team's overall strength during this period. Teams with high domestic player scoring percentages, strong foreign players capable of breaking through tough defenses, and resilient defense are likely to perform well in the fourth quarter. Here are the top 5 teams with the strongest fourth quarter lineups in the CBA this season: 5th place: Tongxi Men's Basketball Team Tongxi has a high scoring percentage from domestic players, with two local players in the top three scorers: Lin Wei averaging 20.9 points and Guo Haowen averaging 17 points. Their combination of Lin Wei, Guo Haowen, Zhu Mingzhen, Liu Dong, and Lifv in the fourth quarter can score from multiple angles, but their poor defense and rim protection prevent them from achieving even greater success. 4th place: Shanghai Men's Basketball Team Shanghai's foreign players, Bradsoe and Lofton, show potential for strong offensive capabilities, which needs to be tested in tough matches. They could maintain the team's offensive aggression by alternating in the fourth quarter. Domestic players Li Tianrong and Li Hongquan are good shooters who can handle some of the ball possession, but their independent offensive abilities are average. Shanghai's rim protection is weak, despite having Wang Zhelin, who averages 2 turnovers and 3.5 fouls per game, which is a disadvantage. 3rd place: Beijing Men's Basketball Team Beijing's small foreign player, Jemian, is not bad, with key moment statistics ranking 7th in the league. However, the lack of suitable substitutes within the team is…
