The current CBA is almost the world of foreign aid, even if the basketball association constantly restricts the playing time of foreign aid, it cannot stop foreign aid from dominating in various statistics, and most of the domestic players have become their foil. In fact, the CBA used to be the protagonist of domestic players, foreign aid as a foil, and the core players of many strong teams were domestic players. Today, Xiaobian takes you to review the CBA 15 years ago to see what kind of scene the CBA league was in during that period, when the limelight of domestic players did not lose foreign aid.
Fifteen years ago, that is, the 2006/2007 season, there are reasons why I chose to look back on this season, because this is the last time that the August 1st of the all-China class won the championship, and a team composed of all domestic players won the championship that year, which can better illustrate the outstanding performance of domestic players in this season.
Let's start with the 2006/2007 average score per game. In fact, in 2007, there were already teams that introduced high-level foreign aid, so the top two in the distribution were still occupied by foreign aid, but there were still 4 domestic players who entered the top 10 of the scoring list, namely Wang Zhizhi, Tang Zhengdong, Yu Junkai and Yi Jianlian. Although this year's scoring list is already the main role of foreign aid, it is much better than the current CBA scoring list that is completely dominated by foreign aid.
The rebounding list of the 2006/2007 season is still Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi, Tang Zhengdong and Yu Junkai entering the top ten, and it has to be said that this year's Tang Zhengdong can be called the absolute core of the Jiangsu team, and it is with his perfect play that the Jiangsu men's basketball team can reach the semifinals. Yi Jianlian averaged 24.8 points, 11.4 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game that season, and his contribution value ranked first in the Guangdong team while averaging two doubles per game, and at the end of the season, the UAE went to the NBA.
The Bayi team completed their last dominion over the CBA this season, with a regular season 35 wins and 6 losses, the first win rate in the league. This is Wang Zhizhi's first season after returning to the CBA, he showed the level of NBA level as soon as he returned, scoring 20+ consecutively, of which, in the away game against Yunnan, Dazhi played 48 minutes, 36 of 32 from two-point range, 3 of 7 from three-point range, and 10 of 12 from the free throw line.
It is worth mentioning that the Bayi team not only regained the championship after three years, but also achieved 19 consecutive wins in the regular season, a record until the 27th round was ended by the Liaoning men's basketball team. That season, in addition to having high-level foreign aid Ernest Brown, the Liaoning team also had a group of powerful players such as Liu Xiangtao, Zhang Qingpeng, Yang Ming, etc., many of whom established their positions in the CBA in the future.
Finally, the highlight is that year's finals, the two sides against Bayi and Guangdong. The Guangdong team need not say more, their main forces are Yi Jianlian, Du Feng and Wang 7 Zhu 8, and foreign aid Jichen can only be regarded as the general main force. The core of the Bayi team that year was Wang Zhizhi, plus players such as Li Nan, Moko, Li Ke, Zhang Jinsong and Chen Chen, most of whom participated in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The men's basketball team of the 2008 session was hailed as the strongest men's basketball team in history, and from this point it can also be seen that the domestic players were strong at that time.
The result of the finals was 4:1 Guangdong, let's take a look at the performance of the players of the two teams at that time. Wang Zhizhi averaged 27.1 points per game in the playoffs, ranking second in the playoff scoring list, and the first place was Shandong's foreign aid Ramizana, but he played eight fewer playoff games than Wang Zhizhi. Yi Jianlian averaged 25.3 points per game in the playoffs, ranking third, and he and Wang Zhizhi were definitely the protagonists of that year's finals. Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, Li Nan, Moko and Zhang Jinsong and others in the playoffs averaged more points per game than Guangdong's foreign aid, in the final game of the finals, Yi Jianlian scored a game-high 22 points and 9 rebounds, Zhu Fangyu 11 points, Wang Shipeng and Du Feng 10 points each, Ji Chen 13 points, Terrence 14 points, Wang Zhizhi 21 points and 7 rebounds, Zhang Jinsong 18 points, Wang Zhongguang 15 points, Li Nan 14 points.
It can be seen that throughout the season, the limelight of domestic players has not lost to foreign aid, and the playing time of foreign aid has not been limited, these people have brought the performance in the league to the international arena and achieved the strongest men's basketball national team.
