As we all know, the CBA playoffs have reached the 1/4 finals, and the Guangdong team and Liaoning team in the upper half of the region have achieved a 2-0 advantage, and they are only one step away from advancing to the semifinals. The Zhejiang team and the Xinjiang team in the lower half also have a big advantage, and they also have a chance to get the match point in advance. For Sunday night's game, fans may be disappointed.
After checking CCTV's broadcast plan, there has been a temporary adjustment, CCTV Sports Channel will broadcast the final of the Table Tennis World Cup in Macau, and one of the two playoffs will be broadcast live on the event channel. In other words, there is at least one second game of the 1/4 finals, which is not broadcast live by CCTV and will give way to national table tennis.
For the broadcast of CCTV sports channel, it really can't meet the requirements of fans, especially for the Chinese Super League and CBA League, as the two most influential leagues in the country, CCTV has not done everything it should have broadcast. On some match days, CCTV would rather play back some of the previous game footage than broadcast it live.
We keep saying that we want to revitalize China's three major balls, but for CCTV's broadcast plan, there is no obvious bias towards the three major balls. Of course, some fans may say that the final of the Table Tennis World Cup will also attract the attention of many fans by the members of our national table tennis team. However, for the CBA playoffs, fans still want to be able to see free live broadcasts.
In addition, the loss of commentators on CCTV sports channels is also an important reason for the change in the broadcast plan. The major commentators we were familiar with before were basically poached by other live broadcast platforms. This time in the CBA playoffs, CCTV Sports Channel did not choose to broadcast the whole game, but chose some of the games.
Next, we will soon enter the semi-finals, especially the Liaoyue battle that may appear again in the playoffs, and I hope that CCTV Sports Channel can focus on taking care of the CBA, so that fans across the country can see the wonderful playoff matchups, instead of asking us to go to some live broadcast platforms to pay to watch the game. Only when there are more fans watching the live broadcast will China's three major balls be concerned and can be developed.
