With a victory over Beijing, in the CBA halfway point, Liaoning finally won the CBA half-way championship with 17 wins and 2 losses. This is also the third time in the history of Liaoning that the team has won the half-distance championship. However, as Guo Allen said, the half-distance championship is meaningless. In the history of the Liaoning team, the first 2 times they won the half-way championship, and they eventually lost the championship in the finals.
This season's Liaoning team has indeed played an unprecedented momentum in recent seasons, and after the rapid growth of young players such as Fu Hao, Zhang Zhenlin and Zhu Rongzhen, the Liaoning team also has the capital to impact the championship again. Especially in the case of Guangdong's injured troops this season, the probability of Liaoning winning the championship again is very large.
With the victory over Beijing, they won the third half-way championship in team history with a record of 17 wins and 2 losses. It is undeniable that being able to win the half-distance championship is indeed a gratifying thing. Being able to win the halfway title means that their efforts in the first half of the season have paid off.
A good start is half the battle. However, before winning the championship, the Liaoning team must not be careless. In the history of the Liaoning team, winning the half-distance championship did not win the championship in the end. In the 2014-15 season, Liaoning opened a crazy offensive mode, and under hudson's leadership, Liaoning won the first half-way championship in team history. However, in the final result, Liaoning lost to Beijing in the finals and lost the championship.
In the subsequent 2020-21 season, that is, last season, Liaoning team was also unstoppable in the first half, winning consecutive battles and unstoppable, pressing Guangdong, Beijing, Guangsha and Zhejiang to win the CBA half-way championship. But the final outcome is the same, in the finals, Liaoning team in the outside world in a good voice, and finally lost 1-2 to Guangdong team, once again lost the championship.
Therefore, as Guo Allen said, the half-distance champion is the half-distance champion, and it is only a half-distance champion, which has no special significance. For this Liaoning team, their only goal this season is the championship. As for the half-time champions, the regular season champions, they don't need these things to prove anything anymore.
