In the new NBL league, the length of a single quarter has been changed from 12 minutes to 10 minutes, and fouls have been adjusted from 6 to 5 fouls. In terms of foreign aid policy, each team can sign up for three foreign aides on the spot, and eight people will be introduced in four quarters (with a maximum of two foreign aides appearing at the same time in each quarter). In this regard, Xu Jicheng, chairman of CBA, said that if the NBL's attempt is successful, it may be tried in the CBA in the future.

When the reporter asked: "If the game length and foreign aid attempts are successful, will they be moved to other leagues in the future?" Xu Jicheng said: "Yes, definitely, in fact, the women's basketball team has always been a 10-minute quarter, the FIBA format. ”

"But it can't be one-size-fits-all, the CBA has its special situation, and the original change from 10 minutes to 12 minutes in a quarter is also to allow more young players to have more opportunities to practice, and also to improve the quality of the game."

"In fact, everyone has also seen that the CBA has developed from the past to the present, and it has also made a very good example for the NBL. At all times, our league, the game must be exciting, there must be suspense. Ten minutes in one session greatly increases its chancefulness. The score was opened in the fourth quarter, and we tried this change in the hope of benchmarking against other Asian leagues, which is indeed an attempt, but it is also a direction and a rule. ”

It is worth mentioning that after the Basketball World Cup last summer, the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, Djordjevic, suggested that the CBA adjust the game length from 12 minutes to 10 minutes and reduce the number of fouls from 6 to 5, using FIBA's game length and foul count instead of learning the NBA.

But at this year's CBA All-Star Weekend, Xu Jicheng once said for such a question that there is also the possibility of increasing the duration of FIBA in the future, so the CBA will not adjust the duration for now and wait and see.

But now, the NBL has taken the initiative to adjust the time and start using the FIBA game time, and it will allow the CBA to try in the future. I don't know why Xu Jicheng has such a big change in thinking in just three months?
