On the evening of April 17, Beijing time, the CBA officially announced the punishment results of the conflict between Beijing Shougang and Shanghai men's basketball team, involving more people than everyone imagined, a total of 8 people were fined, in addition to the players, there are also coaches and team executives, and the punishment measures include bans and fines, and the fines add up to 270,000. This is also the heaviest fine so far in the CBA 23-24 season, and Xu Jicheng, chairman of the CBA company, has hit hard and will never tolerate the brawl on the court.
CBA officials first talked about the conflict between Beijing Shougang and Shanghai men's basketball team in the first round of G3, which directly restored the whole process. With less than 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter, Beijing Shougang's Fang Shuo was emotional after being fouled by the players of the Shanghai men's basketball team, and then Dai Hao of the Shanghai men's basketball team rushed to Fang Shuo, and the two sides had a push and shove, while Zeng Fanbo, Fan Yiming, Zhu Yanxi, Zhai Xiaochuan and other players entered the game venue in violation of regulations and interfered with the order of the game.
In fact, the CBA company's statement is a bit euphemistic, judging from the situation at the time, the actions of the two sides were very large, but fortunately, the referee stopped it in time, otherwise the brawl between the two teams might break out. Beijing Shougang's Fang Shuo directly locked the throat of the Shanghai men's basketball player, the action was too violent, causing a very big negative impact, if it was just pushing, the topic would not be so high, after all, it is also common for players to have body movements on the court.
Then a number of Beijing Shougang players rushed to the court, and the Shanghai men's basketball team was more rational, after all, they were in the lead, and the game entered garbage time in advance, so there was no need to make extraneous branches. The referee then ejected the player involved in the conflict, and the CBA's punishment was more severe.
The only person involved in the conflict in the Shanghai team was Dai Hao, who was fined 2 games and fined 50,000 yuan, and coach Liu Peng was also fined 20,000 yuan, which is jointly and severally responsible. Beijing Shougang suffered heavy losses, not only missed the top 8 of the playoffs, but also many cores were banned, and the amount of fines was also a lot: Fang Shuo was banned for 2 games and fined 100,000 yuan, Zeng Fanbo, Zhai Xiaochuan, Fan Yiming, Zhu Yanxi and other 4 players were suspended for 1 game and fined 20,000 yuan, and Zhang Yunsong, deputy general manager of the team, was fined 20,000 yuan.
Beijing Shougang and Shanghai men's basketball team combined 8 people were dealt with, with a total fine of 270,000, but I didn't expect that in the playoffs, CBA issued such a heavy fine. Since the season for Beijing Shougang has ended, the bans of several players will be enforced next season, and the fines must be paid as soon as possible. The Shanghai men's basketball team reached the top 8 and faced the Zhejiang men's basketball team in the second round.
Domestic media people also raised questions, thinking that such a fine is difficult to convince the public, "The smell of gunpowder between the two sides last night started with Ren Junwei's footing Zeng Fanbo, Liu Zheng After Fang Shuo's deliberate foul, Fang Shuo just got up and questioned verbally, and finally Ren Junwei escaped punishment, and Fang Shuo was punished the most." In fact, no matter what the cause is, Fang Shuo, as the main participant in the conflict, should not choke the opponent's neck, which is absolutely not allowed in the basketball arena. I believe that after experiencing this incident, Fang Shuo will be more rational in the future, he has been a veteran for many years, and he has also been selected for the national team, so he should play an exemplary role.
