After losing to Shenzhen in the 23rd round of the regular season, the Tongxi men's basketball team has now suffered 20 consecutive defeats. After losing this game, Tongxi is only four games away from the CBA regular season losing streak.
In the 2001-02 season, Shenzhen Yikang lost all 24 games in the regular season, which is also the longest record of the CBA's regular season losing streak. The team lost all 6 relegation games and 30 games of the season, and was disbanded after the end of the season for various reasons.
Tongxi men's basketball team currently has a record of 1 win and 22 losses, even worse than Ningbo, who has just joined the league, ranking first from the bottom of the league, and the next 4 games tongxi will play against Jilin, Shanxi, Guangsha and Xinjiang. Guangsha is currently no longer in the league and 8th in Shanxi, and Tongxi has almost no chance of winning; Jilin and Xinjiang are teams that need to impact the playoffs, and they are not likely to release water to Tongxi. At present, Tongxi is very likely to break the CBA's longest losing streak in the regular season.
In fact, the strength of the players of the Tongxi team is the bottom of the league, and even foreign aid is not at the level of flow. Edwards, 29, averaged just 11.4 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game in Tianjin last season, and only 15.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.9 assists in weak teams like Tongxi this season. Coupled with the injury stop of the local core Xi Relijiang, it is not so surprising that the Tongxi team is difficult to win.
After Liu Tie became the head coach of the team, the Tongxi team has not yet won, which has to remind people of the first stage of the Tongxi management's riot operation. After losing the second leg against Ningbo, the Tongxi boss was furious, and the group company publicly criticized the club leaders and coaching staff, and claimed to continue to pursue their malfeasance. After that, the former coach Besinovic did not accept the criticism of the group company, and was also very dissatisfied with the boss Chen Guangchuan's approach, took the initiative to resign, and parted ways with Tongxi.
In fact, the strength of the players is not good, and it is useless to change the big name coach to bring. And from the past team results, Besinović is also a famous coach in the world, it is difficult for Tongxi to win, and taking the coach is looking for a scapegoat. Now after each game, the first sentence of Liu Tie's summary at the press conference is always "there is a gap between the strength of us and the XX team", which takes Besinović away, and Tongxi continues to find Liu Tie's back pot.
After successive games against Jilin, Shanxi, Guangsha and Xinjiang, the last opponent of the Tongxi team before the Spring Festival is the league-ranked Liaoning team, and it seems that there is no suspense in breaking the CBA's longest losing streak in the regular season, and Liu Tie, who succeeded Besinovich as the head coach of Tongxi, will undoubtedly become a witness to this record.
