1. The fierce Liaoyue War
The semifinals of the CBA of the Chinese men's basketball professional league have always been one of the most focused points of fans. Especially this year, the showdown between the two giants, the Guangdong team and the Liaoning team, has attracted widespread attention.
After all, the two teams have been in a tight competition for the regular season and have been evenly matched by scores. At this crucial stage of the semi-finals, the two teams are even more inseparable, and every game is full of drama and suspense.
This match can be said to be full of gunsmoke and controversy. Even Zhou Qi, the number one star of the Liaoning team, was expelled from the game at a critical moment. And Yang Ming, the coach of the Guangdong team, had a fierce conflict with the referee in the game, and was finally whistled for a technical foul.
This scene undoubtedly sparked heated discussions among fans. After all, in such an important semi-final, the constant conflict between the players and coaches of both sides not only affected the development of the game, but also caused more controversy and questioning. What are the factors that have led to this situation?
Second, the grudge entanglement between the players
If you want to say why there are so many controversies and conflicts in this game, the grudges between the players are undoubtedly a very important factor.
First of all, we noticed that in this game, there was an incident related to Zhang Zhenlin and Xu Jie that caused a lot of attention. It is reported that Zhang Zhenlin had scolded Xu Jie angrily on the field before, which caused a fierce dispute between the two sides. In this game, the fans also prepared a T-shirt printed with a photo of "Xu Jie roaring at Zhang Zhenlin" to express their support for Xu Jie for Zhang Zhenlin at that time.
This is clearly a continuation of the contradictions between the players, and in the heat of the game, this grudge can easily be amplified and intensified. The discord between the players of both sides will inevitably lead to more disputes and conflicts in the game, which will eventually affect the course of the whole game.
Also, we note that there was also a clash between Hu Mingxuan of the Guangdong team and Zhao Jiwei of the Liaoning team in this match. According to reports, Hu Mingxuan successfully limited Zhao Jiwei's play on the defensive end, which sparked an argument between the players on both sides.
The grievances between the players are undoubtedly an important reason for the controversy of the game. In such a high-intensity game, the contradictions between the players on both sides will inevitably be stimulated and amplified, which will lead to more conflicts and disputes. This undoubtedly greatly affected the atmosphere and development of the whole game.
3. The confrontation between players and referees has escalated
In addition to the grievances between the players, another controversial point in this game that has attracted widespread attention is the confrontation between the players and the referee.
Specifically, the most eye-catching scene in this game was the fierce clash between Guangdong team coach Yang Ming and the referee. According to reports, in the fourth quarter, when the referee awarded an offensive foul to the Guangdong team, Yang Ming suddenly became angry and rushed directly to the referee to scold and accuse fiercely. In the end, Yang Ming was awarded a technical foul.
This blatant confrontation undoubtedly caused an uproar among the audience. After all, as a coach, in such an important semi-final, there would be such a fierce clash with the referee, which undoubtedly pushed the atmosphere of the game to the extreme.
In addition to Yang Ming, in this game, we also noticed that Zhou Qi of the Liaoning team was expelled from the game at a critical moment. This is undoubtedly a typical case of the referee decisively influencing the trend of the game.
This kind of fierce confrontation between players and referees not only fully reflects the tension between the two sides on the field, but also highlights some problems and controversies in the referee's law enforcement. After all, making some key decisions that affect the trend of the game at critical moments will inevitably cause dissatisfaction and protests from players.
It can be said that this confrontation between players and referees is also an important reason for the controversy in this game. The fierce battle between the two sides on the field eventually escalated into a clash between the coach and the referee, which undoubtedly increased the tension of the game and adversely affected the spectator experience.
Fourth, the issue of CBA referee enforcement needs to be improved urgently
Through the analysis of this game, it is not difficult to find that there are some problems in the process of CBA referees in law enforcement, which has also become a major hidden danger affecting the normal conduct of the game.
First, there is a lack of consistency and fairness in the referee's decision-making. As mentioned above, Zhou Qi's expulsion from the field has undoubtedly aroused widespread doubts. After all, making such a penalty decision in such a crucial game is hardly convincing. This lack of fairness in refereeing will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction among players and coaches.
Second, referees lack due determination and professionalism in the process of law enforcement. The fierce clash between Yang Ming and the referee is a good example of this. As a coach, having such a heated argument with the referee during a game undoubtedly exposes the referee's lack of ability to control the field.
In this case, the emotions of the players and coaches are easily aroused, which can lead to more disputes and conflicts. This will undoubtedly seriously affect the normal progress of the game and also adversely affect the viewing experience of the audience.
In general, the problems existing in the process of CBA referees in the process of law enforcement have become an important factor affecting the quality of the game. If it is not improved in a timely and effective manner, this situation may continue to occur in future competitions, casting a shadow on the development of the entire league.
