On January 9, Beijing time, the CBA officially announced the punishment of "conflict" between Fang Shuo and Yin Chunwen in the last round, that is, in the 27th round, in the match between the Beijing team and the Nanjing team.
What happened:
With 6 minutes and 23 seconds left in the fourth quarter of the game, Fang Shuo and Yin Chunwen had physical contact in the process of attacking and defending each other, and the referee on the spot whistled the verdict as soon as possible, but then Fang Shuo still made a push and shove action on Yin Chunwen.
As a result, the players of the two teams almost broke out into a larger "clashes".
After the situation was calmed down, the referee once again played it back in slow motion, giving Yin Chunwen a foul and Fang Shuo "seizing power".
According to the official rules of the league, if there is a "seizure of power" during the game, it must be "determined" again after the game to determine whether additional penalties should be imposed.
Unfortunately, the result of this "determination" is that additional penalties are required.
Penalty result: 1 game suspension and a fine of RMB 50,000.
As soon as the announcement came out, it immediately aroused heated discussions among many fans.
First of all, the result of this punishment is relatively convincing.
As the overall basketball environment becomes more and more "civilized", those actions on the court beyond the basketball itself will become more and more "restricted".
Now basically as long as you "shoot", it is a ban and a fine.
This is already considered "standard".
Therefore, Fang Shuo can be regarded as once again "verifying" the strictness of the league officials in this regard through his own behavior.
And the league official also used this additional punishment to once again show its determination to strictly discipline on the field.
I hope that in the follow-up games, Fang Shuo can learn the lessons of this game, control his emotions more effectively and reasonably, and put more thoughts on the game.
At the same time, it also sets a good "example" for more young players.
Secondly, why was Fu Hao also "seized power" but not suspended?
Many fans are more puzzled that in the previous 25th round of the Liaoning team's home game against the Zhejiang team, also in the fourth quarter, when the suspense of the victory or defeat had been revealed, Fu Hao got up and made a layup to directly knock out a few teeth of the Zhejiang team's little foreign aid Jones.
Fang Jun, the general manager of the Zhejiang team, directly took the knocked out tooth to find the technical table, and then the referee on the scene then played it back in slow motion and finally gave Fu Hao the punishment of "seizing power".
Just when everyone thought that Fu Hao would be suspended in the next game, unexpectedly, in the next game, that is, in the 26th round, the Liaoning team against the Jilin team, Fu Hao appeared on the field again and played for 24 minutes.
At that time, fans thought that the league had new rules, and there was no need to suspend the game if they were "seized power"?
However, Fang Shuo's suspension this time caught everyone off guard.
Excuse me, does it need to be suspended to be "seized"?
Or is the final interpretation of the suspension still in the hands of the "official"?
In view of this, the majority of fans put forward two suggestions to the CBA official.
First, whether the "seizure of power" will necessarily be suspended for one game, there should be a clear answer to this detailed rule.
It doesn't mean anything else, because now is an era of the Internet itself, and many fans are really concerned about the CBA.
After a penalty is issued, there are suddenly two completely different punishment results, which will inevitably cause more controversy.
The biggest core principle of competitive sports is "fairness".
If this can't be done, then where is the "credibility" of this league?
Of course, there will definitely be fans who say that if it doesn't, it's not a CBA.
However, the fans said that it was the fans who said that the league itself could not be so "vague".
No matter how many "problems" there are in the league now, as long as you are determined to change little by little, then there will always be a day when it will get better and better.
Otherwise, it will only get worse and worse.
Second, if there are still different situations after players are "seized", then the league official should also make a public statement on each player "seizing power".
Take Fu Hao and Fang Shuo's incident as an example.
For example, Fu Hao's behavior was within the rules of basketball, and it was only out of the principle of "protecting" the athletes, so he was given the punishment of "seizing power".
And Fang Shuo's action is beyond the basketball rules themselves, so he will be subject to an "additional" punishment.
However, these are just the words of the fans, is there a better way for the league to make announcements?
Or, since the fans have already put it forward, are the league officials not even willing to do it?
