Recently, the CBA announced the schedule of the second stage of the regular season, the push time is late, Xiaobian quickly picked the key points for everyone -
December 25, 2021 - January 28, 2022
Changchun Division
It is said that in view of the changes in the epidemic prevention and control situation in Zhejiang and other places, the CBA has communicated with the Changchun Municipal Government and approved by the superior departments, and the second stage of the regular season has been transferred to Changchun, and it is still a closed tournament system.
This is the first time that the CBA has been held in the Northeast since the resumption of the epidemic.
Originally, the second stage was subdivided into two stages, that is, after the 23rd round, each of the two divisions had 5 teams each transferred to the division, in order to complete the remaining 5 rounds of the second stage (January 18-28, 2022), which were transferred to the Zhejiang Jinniu, Qingdao, Sichuan, Shanghai and Jiangsu divisions of Zhuji Division, and Zhejiang Lions, Liaoning, Jilin, Shanxi and Nanjing in Changchun Division were transferred to Zhuji Division;
The rest of the teams stood still.
This arrangement also caused controversy at the time, for example, some Liaoning fans said:
"Why does Liaoning have to go south to Zhuji to compete, but Guangdong can always stay in the original competition area and have less pain in boats and cars?"
In this way, the controversy ceases to exist.
Previously, the stadium hosted by Changchun was the Changchun City Gymnasium, which is the home of the Jilin Siberian Tigers, but as all the teams were arranged to the Changchun Division, the five-ring gymnasium of the Changchun Sports Center was coordinated.
It is reported that Changchun has begun to sell tickets, and the audience is expected to enter the game after the start of the second stage, but the possibility is becoming more and more unlikely with the current prevention and control situation;
At the very least, it was a bit difficult to get in the early stages of Stage 2.

From the current epidemic situation, as long as the CBA can proceed smoothly, whether the audience can enter or not is still a small matter, and the biggest impact on the teams is that -
I thought Phase 2 would be postponed; now that the game is on schedule, some people still need to adjust as soon as possible.
National hand
First of all, if the league is postponed, it will help the national players to adjust their status.
After playing the 2023 Basketball World Cup Qualifiers (hereinafter referred to as the World Preliminary Tournament), the generals of the Chinese men's basketball team returned to Guangdong for 14+7 days of isolation, which allowed them to conduct strength training in the room according to the deployment of the coaching team through video conferencing.
During the period, there were also interesting stories about Guo Allen, the number one sharp knife on the offensive end of the Chinese men's basketball team, who posted videos of entertaining himself in the isolated room through social media, including -
And --
Half-naked on the upper body, wearing a flower hat and holding a basketball, he taught everyone how to confuse the opponent with his eyes and expressions when dribbling past people, and then dribbled with a very funny expression and exaggerated movements, and finally asked everyone:
"Are you dead?"
Videos are very funny and humorous, but it is true that training in the room and training in the arena or strength room are two different things.
Guo Allen posted quarantine meals on social media
His Liaoning teammate Zhao Jiwei is in a different situation:
According to the Chinese basketball team's social media interview with him, everyone found that as of the end of the first window of the World Preliminary Tournament, Zhao Jiwei continued to play in the national team, CBA League, National Games and other tournaments with a total of 92 games, which is a model worker.
"Now this situation does not have much time for athletes to reserve physical fitness, only to do some recovery as much as possible, and do physical training under the guidance of the physical fitness coach."
Zhao Jiwei said.
The eight immortals crossed the sea, each showing their own magic, and everyone had a way, but they were just a way out of the way.
The Chinese men's basketball team returned to China on December 1, and the quarantine period was 14+7, that is to say, it would not be officially ended until December 22, and the 25th was the game, it is clear that the national players can only adjust the state while playing the game, which is certainly not a good thing for Liaoning and Guangdong, which have many national players.
Before Guo Allen released various funny videos, netizens ridiculed:
"This kid has gone crazy."
Almost, Guo Allen walked out of the isolation room and was about to enter the CBA arena in Changchun, and it is estimated that he will go crazy several times.
Wounded
Second, the postponement of the league would give injured people more time to recover, but it also doesn't exist anymore.
After the end of the 1st stage, Ding Yanyuhang accidentally injured his knee by his teammates in training, and he will rest for about 2 months, basically without the 2nd stage, and has previously released the news that the league may be postponed, so that he may come back in the second half of the 2nd stage.
The scheduled holding of the second stage also made Shandong Qilin, who had just announced the team name, no longer fantasize, and Gao Shiyan, a young man from Liaoning, had to pick a shoulder again.
In addition, for a veteran like Yi Jianlian, who has just recovered from a major injury, the postponement of the league will also help him reserve more physical fitness and increase the tacit understanding with his teammates.
There are many such examples, last season's comeback Abdul Shalamu Abdul Reshiti is not in good shape, but after 1 offseason, this season can bomb 43 points in a single game; the long league in 2019 has allowed Zhou Pengcai to play after the resumption, which has made a great contribution to the Guangdong South China Tigers to win the championship.
Therefore, time is very precious for Yi Jianlian, and the more time the start of the second stage, the more he has enough time to find his state, but now...
foreign aid
Compared to the situation that many teams in Phase 1 have only single foreign aid or even an all-China class, Stage 2 has confirmed that more foreign players will join the CBA, such as: Eric Morland, Hamad Haddadi, Jonathan Simmons, Taylor Rochester and Kenny Burton,...... And so on and so forth.
These foreign players have been released from quarantine and trained with the team, and the early appearance of Stage 2 is almost a foregone conclusion.
However, some foreign aides have not yet entered the country or are in quarantine, and were planned to play again in the second half of Stage 2, after all, even if the quarantine is lifted, it will take time for players such as Jeremy Lin to recover.
On November 2, 2021, the 8th round of the CBA, Beijing vs Shenzhen, Jeremy Lin, who warmed up before the game, sweated like rain
If the start of the second stage is delayed, then foreign aid like Zhejiang Jinniu who announced that it is going through the entry formalities will have more time to complete the relevant procedures, and it will be able to catch up with the second stage after the isolation is lifted.
A lot of teams are in this state, obviously, they would prefer Stage 2 to be postponed.
Right now......
If the procedures are uneven, hurry up, and get up in the early morning when the training is insufficient.
epilogue
Postponement, a shot and the whole body, next year's spring blossom stage 3 can be said to be difficult to say, whether it can restore the home and away is even more difficult to say.
Without postponement, the training level and adjustment ability of each team will be tested.
