Niu Jia sat paralyzed on the bench, covered his face with a towel, and shed unwilling tears, unwilling to accept the result of the loss in front of him for a long time. Although the players and coaches repeatedly approached the referee to protest at this time, the outcome of the game could not be changed.
A few days ago, the controversy of the women's basketball league about the footing storm did not take long, and another game was rushed to the hot search because of the referee's controversy.
This game is the key game in the playoffs between the Wuhan women's basketball team and the Beijing women's basketball team, and the two teams are tight until the fourth quarter, and the Beijing women's basketball team finally wins by 1 point.
After the game, the Wuhan women's basketball team did not recognize the result of their loss, and posted a news on official social media with the headline of "68-68 draw with Beijing women's basketball team" and announced that the club would award the team 100,000 yuan. Obviously, the Wuhan team is reluctant to accept the result of the loss.
The controversy of the game occurred in the last two blows in the fourth quarter, and in the last 4 seconds, the Beijing Team No. 30 player attacked, and the referee sentenced Wuhan Team No. 18 player Niu Jiatui to foul.
From the slow motion, it can be clearly seen that Niu Jia did pull the attacking team member with his hand and violated the opponent's cylinder, although the action was not large, but the referee blew the foul and there was no problem.
Beijing regained a one-point lead after making two free throws.
The last attack of the game, Wuhan team No. 4 player Chen Yanyu received the ball after the shot, Beijing team No. 13 in the defense of the two people had physical contact, shot out of the basket, but the referee did not have any blow penalty, the game ended, for this defense whether there was a foul, there was a great controversy.
The Wuhan team believed that this defense violated the cylinder of the shooting players and should be blown fouls. More importantly, they argue that the referee did not enforce a uniform scale on the last two key blows.
From a slow motion point of view, objectively speaking, the defender did not have any movement in the final hand, but physically he did have contact with the offensive player, if he blew a foul, there was no problem, but in the moment of life and death that decided the victory or defeat, the referee needed to make a quick judgment in a short period of time.
After the controversy of this game, there were also many controversial voices on the Internet, but what is puzzling is that there are many insults pointed at the Beijing team.
Obviously, some netizens believe that the referee is deliberately biased toward Beijing.
Such a statement is actually very ridiculous, the victory or defeat of this game involves the final ranking of both Wuhan and Beijing, of course, both teams are all striving to win, but if the referee is deliberately biased to one side, it is absolutely unfounded.
As we all know, the attention of the women's basketball league is extremely low, and the degree of commercialization is not worth mentioning. In the year of the sudden outbreak of the epidemic, the CBA was still trying to do everything possible to resume the game, and a very important reason was to give an account to the sponsors. However, the women's basketball league is different, simply canceling the entire season, which can clearly reflect the attention and influence of the women's basketball league.
Nowadays, in the way of the tournament system, the operation of each team is difficult, in the words of a club boss, that is, to lose a year a year, and I have never thought about making money. For almost all teams, reducing expenses and barely maintaining them is the overall policy of most teams operating today. In this case, it is simply impossible to do any "refereeing work".
If you scold the Beijing team because the referee's blowing penalty is inaccurate, this is obviously a presupposition of conspiracy theory. Because the Beijing team has also suffered from the referee's misjudgment, it is also expected that everyone can play in a fair environment. If the overall level of the referee cannot be improved, it is you who suffer losses today, and it may be him who suffers losses tomorrow.
In the final analysis, the reason for such a big controversy is actually the level of refereeing.
"Many people know that our CBA referees are not good enough now, and some games simply cannot reach a high accuracy rate of blowing penalties, but in fact, the level of referees cannot keep up with the league level is a problem in Chinese basketball as a whole, and the CBA is only because of its high attention, so it is more obvious." A senior referee said in an interview.
According to an industry insider, the training of chinese basketball referees also has an echelon promotion process, the highest level of referees must be in the CBA, and young referees often put in the women's basketball league or NBL league to exercise and accumulate experience when they need to exercise. This has also caused the overall level of refereeing in the women's basketball league to be difficult to maintain at a high level.
I actually understand the mood of the Wuhan team after the loss, because they are close to victory.
Zhao Feifei, general manager of the Wuhan team, said in an interview with Red Star News: "For the referee's penalty, we have actively communicated with the relevant departments of the Chinese Basketball Association and requested the league to make a professional explanation for the different scales of the referee's penalty standards. ”
It can be seen that for this defeat, the Wuhan team just wants to ask for an explanation.
In fact, the referee's blowing penalty level is not the first time it has appeared. Just two days ago, the reason why the mat door incident that appeared in the women's basketball league quickly fermented and rushed to the hot search was because after such an injury action appeared, the referee on duty did not make any blowing penalties, and the game continued.
In other words, if the referee had made a timely decision on the spot, the incident might not have aroused such a hot discussion from the outside world. After that, the basketball association made a fine + additional punishment for suspension of the parties, more like a measure to calm people after the outbreak of public opinion, but no one may realize that the referee's leakage at that time was also a key factor in the escalation of the incident.
Of course, even now that all the high-level referees in China have been put into the CBA to referee, the CBA League still has a constantly fermenting referee dispute.
The most famous scene in the first stage was Guo Shiqiang's protest at the last moments of the Guangzhou team's game because the referee missed the opponent's key move and refused to make a substitution. Although Guangzhou eventually overturned and won the match, Guo Shiqiang was also suspended for 5 games and fined 20,000 yuan for his protests in the game.
After the ticket was issued, the biggest controversy in public opinion was why only Guo Shiqiang was punished? And the official explanation of the penalty for the referee on duty who missed the blow?
In other words, the cause of the incident was that the referee missed the step, and the Guangzhou team almost buried the effort of the whole game, but it was Guo Shiqiang, the head coach of the victim who finally paid for the mistake, which was an unacceptable result.
In the long league, whether it is the women's basketball league team, or the CBA Guangzhou team, Liaoning team, Beijing team... They have all experienced losing their own victories because of the referee's misjudgment, and this depressed and unwilling feeling is something that others cannot understand.
In the final analysis, the key to resolving the contradiction lies in how to improve the overall level of Chinese basketball referees. If it is only because of the low attention of the women's basketball league, it is necessary to treat important games as a "training ground" for young referees, which must be unfair to girls who work hard to win.
In order to calm the unwilling emotions of the players, the Wuhan team broke the ground by issuing a "flat ball bonus" of 100,000 yuan, but it could not change the outcome of the game.
Until now, for the referee controversy that occurred in this game, the official has not given a clear statement and conclusion.
To tell the truth, with the attention and commercialization of the women's basketball league today, the responsibility of the league is more to send talents for the national team.
In recent years, the women's national basketball team has made great achievements in international competitions, of course, it is inseparable from the training obtained by the players in the league, which is also the most powerful confirmation of the professional development results of the WCBA League.
Those who are willing to invest real money in the league knowing that the professional team of the women's basketball league cannot make a profit, whether it is a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise, is undoubtedly paying for the dream with a love for basketball.
Our league operators and managers really should think about how to improve the overall level of referees, do a good job of hardware and software for the league at the same time, do not let the league rush to the hot search every time, is a "controversy", "conflict" and other negative events, at that time, is the real progress of Chinese basketball.
