With the arrival of the New Year, the CBA All-Star Debut Invoice Selection Work has also been completed. Surprisingly, no foreign players were selected in this all-star starting lineup, and 10 starters were all local players. In fact, such a result is in line with the tone of this season's CBA, and more and more local players are beginning to become the core of the team. The CBA has changed so much, and Yao Ming, chairman of the Basketball Association, is naturally also indispensable!
2018 CBA All-Star Game South Division Starting Lineup: Zhao Rui (Guangdong), Wu Qian (Zhejiang), Zhou Peng (Guangdong), Gu Quan (Shenzhen), Yi Jianlian (Guangdong); North District Star Team: Guo Allen (Liaoning), Fang Shuo (Shougang), Ding Yanyuhang (Shandong), Zhai Xiaochuan (Shougang), Han Dejun (Liaoning).
Judging from the voting results, Hu Jinqiu, who played well in the league, met Yi Jianlian in the same position and regrettably lost the all-star starting position. However, Hu Jinqiu's eventual entry into the All-Star bench is not a big problem. In the north district vote, Liao basketball defender Zhao Jiwei lost to teammate Guo Allen and national team teammate Fang Shuo, regrettably missing the starting position.
Among the 10 Tiger players selected, Zhao Rui, Ding Yanyuhang, Fang Shuo and Zhai Xiaochuan are from the Chinese men's basketball team coached by Li Nan, while Wu Qian, Zhou Peng, Yi Jianlian, Gu Quan, Guo Allen and Han Dejun are from the Chinese men's basketball red team coached by Du Feng. Yao Ming's "double national team" strategy has given young people like Wu Qian and Zhao Rui the opportunity to exercise.
With 10 homegrown players named as an All-Star starter, it's not that today's CBA foreign aid isn't strong enough. Adams and Fredette's scoring ability is still outstanding, and the "Rocket Gang" such as Randolph, Scola, Lawson and Motelunas also play well. The reason why they failed to make the CBA All-Star starter is related to the CBA culture this season.
Adams, who leads the team alone, is invincible with two fists and four hands; Lawson and Motel have become Xiaoding's helpers; Hudson is no longer the winner of the Liaoning basket; Haddadi is no longer powerful in the CBA, and even cut. Such a scenario tells us that foreign aid is gradually weakening in the CBA. In more and more games, fans are more willing to pay attention to the performance of local players.
