Chapter 117 Preseason Preparation
After the World Championships, most of the main players returned to their respective teams.
A new season is also in the works.
After the reform of the CBA, there are [-] teams in total.There are two competition areas and four teams.
They are North District: Group A: Siberian Tigers of Kyrgyzstan, Liaodong Hunters, Capital Ducks, Capital Great Wall
Group B: Longxi Crossbow, Kunlun in Xinjiang Province, Mount Tai in Lu Province, Dragon in Jiangsu Province
Southern District: Group A: Sina Lions of Taiwan Province, Wanma of Zhejiang Province, Magic City Sharks, Bayi Rockets
Group B: Hurricane of Fujian Province, South China Tigers of East Guangdong, Tianfu of Sichuan Province, Pioneers of Hong Kong Pengcheng Twin Cities
Several of the team names have been adjusted.
However, there was a financial crisis from Hong Kong City Flying Dragons, and there were not many qualified CBA players in Hong Kong City, so they looked for partners in the Mainland.
In the end, a Pengcheng real estate company approached Feilong, and CBA also agreed to the merger. In the end, Hong Kong City Feilong became a pioneer of two cities.
This can be regarded as a unique scenery of the China Basketball League!
The rules of the regular season are also announced to the world.
After this reform of the competition system, the CBA is divided into two regions, the North and the South, for the regular season.
Each team will play six games against three other teams in the same group, four games against four teams from different groups in the same division, and two games against eight teams from other divisions.
Home and away games are equal, a total of [-] games.
The start of the regular season is scheduled for November [-]st and will end at the end of March.
For a total of five months, a team has only ten games per month on average, which is much less than the NBA regular season, which reduces the risk of injury for players.
Similar to the NBA's Christmas game, after discussion, it was decided to set the special game time on a random day on the eve of the North and South.
The CBA will specially arrange some games with feuds or topics from last season to ensure that the fun will increase on the day.
The playoffs will take the top four in each division according to the regular season rankings.
A total of eight teams are ranked according to the regular season, regardless of division for the playoffs.
Eight to four, four to two semi-finals, three rounds of playoffs in the finals, each round of seven games and four wins in the playoffs.
Although the sub-divisions may cause a team in a division to rank among the top eight, but miss the playoffs due to a strong division.
However, Chen Xinglian considered the fairness and good experience of watching the game from the north and the south, and avoided the situation where six southern teams in the top eight this year will become six strong northern teams in the top eight next year.
So I also learn from the NBA to engage in leagues.
The preseason is scheduled for mid-October to the end of October.
In addition to the normal arrangement of some league games in the preseason, some games with other national league teams will also be arranged.
The reason for this is that Stern called and asked.
He hopes that the CBA will arrange two games against NBA teams in the preseason of the new season.
……
Chen Xinglian had a phone call with Stern.
"John, congratulations to you and your country for defeating the Dream Team. This has played a very important role in the development of your league."
Stern will not feel sad because the Dream Team loses, because he values business more than the country.
China, Yugoslavia and Argentina have defeated the Dream Team in the World Championships. According to the survey, people in these countries have become more enthusiastic about basketball.
This is exactly what Stern wants. He knows that what needs to be improved most at this stage is the influence of basketball in the world.
And the dream team is undoubtedly the best way to be defeated.
"Thanks to you, our league is developing pretty well."
"Really! I really didn't expect that your rookie would be able to defeat the mighty Dream Team. I didn't even want to miss the Huaxia team's game. You know their talent is amazing!"
Stern sighed, but Chen Xinglian heard a different meaning.
Is this going to steal people?
"I didn't expect it either. After all, it was the first time our country established a formal channel to select candidates from universities. I didn't expect that there would be so many young talents."
Chen Xinglian also catered to Stern superficially.
"Yes, I think Huaxia people are very talented in basketball. I think the CBA has the potential to become a top league in the future."
"No, no, no! Compared to the NBA, we are still far behind!"
"John, I think it's okay. CBA is currently the only commercial league in China with potential. A league can enjoy such a large amount of national resources on its own.
(You don't need so many good players in a small league, it doesn't matter if you give me a few)
However, the current prospects of the NBA is not very optimistic.You know how much Michael Jordan's retirement with the Bulls affected me.Fortunately, I resumed the slam dunk contest two years ago, and Vince saved me.
(Vince Carter's dunk guaranteed a national box office)
You know, Michael Jordan is going to retire again, and he doesn't have the impact he used to have.But there are still three top leagues in our country that are squeezing the development space of the NBA, which is why I have to develop outward.
Liang Zhan reminds me of Carter.
(I also want an overseas version of Vince Carter, you have to give me Liang Zhan)"
Chen Xinglian heard what Stern meant.
The subtext was to ask Chen Xinglian for Liang Zhan. Chen Xinglian didn't know how a Jew could speak Chinese language and culture in such a winding way.
"Mr Stern, so we are the strongest allies, aren't we? But so are we, FIFA is constantly exerting its influence.
(I am your former subordinate, you can't cheat me! You already have Vince Carter to support the scene, and I also need Liang Zhan to sell tickets, otherwise the football gang will take the market back)
As an ally, I think I should help you, but I can only do what I can, you know! The volume of CBA is much smaller than that of NBA.
(I can help, but I don’t want to give it to Liang Zhan)
Liu Guang and Zheng Kailong in the World Championships have brought me great help. Their strength has conquered domestic fans. They are future superstars.
(I can give you Liu Guang or Zheng Kailong, their strength must reach the NBA All-Star level)"
Stern understood that Chen Xinglian did not intend to hand over Liang Zhan.
"John, Liu and Zheng are so good, I think they could be All-Stars in the NBA.
However, in my opinion, Liang Zhan can become a superstar. If the world sees a foreign superstar rising in the NBA, I think it will be of great help to our basketball influence.
(Zheng Kailong and Liu Guang can at most help the Chinese market, and Liang Zhan can help me get more markets in other regions)”
With Stern's ambition and NBA's temptation to players, Chen Xinglian knew that if he did nothing, he might still lose Liang Zhan and offend Stern.
"However, Mr. Stern, your price is not low!"
Chen Xinglian felt that the previous agreement required too little money.
"Don't worry, John, my price is satisfactory to you."
When Stern heard that there was a joke, let alone how happy he was, you must know that things that can be solved with money are nothing to Stern.
As long as Chen Xinglian doesn't use the power of the Basketball Association to detain Liang Zhan, it will be easy.
"By the way, the preseason is very important for our communication, John, you have to arrange for teams in big cities to welcome us.
Magic City and the capital's team?I am going to arrange the Rockets, Nuggets or Clippers here. "
Stern has started to care about the preseason games. For him, letting Chinese people watch NBA teams live is not to mention how helpful it is to the NBA.
The Rockets, Nuggets, and Clippers each have a Chinese player.
Chen Xinglian was speechless at the thought of Shanghai, because Yao Ming's strength declined too quickly without Yao Ming.
"I plan to arrange for teams from the capital and eastern Guangdong."
Chen Xinglian arranged a monster in the east of Guangdong to guarantee a surprise for the visitors.
"All right!"
Stern thinks that Guangdong East is also good, and the ball market there is also huge. Anyway, no matter who they are, they will be defeated by NBA teams.
