Unconsciously, the CBA has played 23 rounds, and halfway through the season, the positions of CBA teams have been roughly outlined. So, if you go into the playoffs now, play the playoffs according to the current ranking, who is the best and who is the worst? From the ranking analysis, the Liaoning team at the top of the list is actually the worst, and Guangsha may be sitting on the benefits of the fisherman.
According to the current ranking of the standings, the top 12 CBA teams are Liaoning, Guangsha, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanxi, Beijing, Shandong, Beijing, Beijing and Jilin. According to the rules of the CBA, the top four teams in the CBA do not need to participate in the playoffs, and Liaoning, Guangsha, Shanghai and Zhejiang directly advance to the first round.
Of the remaining 8 teams, Guangdong will face Jilin and Guangzhou against Beijing, Shenzhen against Shandong and Shanxi against Beijing. Not surprisingly, the eight teams will eventually advance to the first round of Guangdong, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Beijing. Their ranking will be in order of 5-8.
In this way, the liaoning team's opponent in the first round will be Beijing, Guangsha will meet Shenzhen, Shanghai will face Guangzhou, and Guangdong will play Against Zhejiang. From the current point of view, although beijing team ranks the lowest, they are the most tenacious team among the bottom few teams, and in the past few seasons, the teams that eliminated them in the playoffs have worked hard.
Even after the Beijing team passed the level, Liaoning's most likely opponent in the semi-finals will be the old rival Guangdong team. Although the defending champion has a mediocre record this season, the regular season was double-killed by the Liaoning team, but the regular season and the playoffs are completely different rhythms, and last season, the Liaoning team was also eliminated by the Guangdong team in the generally optimistic situation of the outside world.
On the other hand, their competitor Guangsha, although lagging behind liaoning in the rankings, temporarily ranked second, but this position seems to be more favorable. In the playoffs, the Shenzhen team in the first round may be the most difficult opponent. Whether they face Shanghai or Guangzhou in the semi-finals, they have a chance to win. At that time, they may reap the benefits of the fishermen.
