The Beijing Shougang men's basketball team showed an excellent performance in the first stage of the season, although the team did not make large-scale reinforcements, and even lost Li Muhao in terms of domestic players, but after the change of coach, under the leadership of the new foreign coach, the team performed well, once suppressed the Liaoning team, and occupied the top position in the standings. However, after the battle with Liaoning at the top of the table, the team lost to Beijing Control and Tianjin in succession, resulting in a three-game losing streak, which became the worst form of the season.
The loss to Liaoning is understandable, but the successive losses to Beijing Control and Tianjin make it feel like there is a problem with the team, because neither team made the playoffs last season and is in average form this season. Therefore, the team needs to seriously sum up the losses in these two games. In the match against Tianjin, there was a skirmish, Fan Ziming caused the conflict, and captain Zhai Xiaochuan stepped up for his teammates, which is understandable.
Although Zhai Xiaochuan's behavior is somewhat impulsive, as the captain, he must step up. Although pushing should not be encouraged, it is appropriate to act decisively as a captain. Although you can't judge things on the basketball court from an off-court perspective, as a captain, it makes sense to make a decisive move. Although Zhai Xiaochuan's actions should be punished by the alliance, Fan Ziming, as the party that caused the conflict, will not be spared either.
The CBA finally announced the penalty decision, Fan Ziming was fined 40,000 yuan, while Zhai Xiaochuan should have faced a fine of 50,000 yuan, but because he was the captain of the team, he was fined an additional 10,000 yuan, bringing the total fine to 60,000 yuan. It also makes him one of the harshest athletes to be punished in the field of fines so far this season. It is worth mentioning that the Beijing BAIC men's basketball team has no players banned in this conflict, which is good news.
At present, the Beijing team has suffered three consecutive defeats, and if either Zhai Xiaochuan or Fan Ziming is suspended, then the next game will become very difficult for the Beijing BAIC men's basketball team. Therefore, it is a blessing that the two were able to continue to compete. In addition, according to the unwritten rules of the CBA, actions like Zhai Xiaochuan standing up for his teammates are considered arbitrary and are therefore fined. It is likely that the club will share this part of the fine for him.
This is not to say that Zhai Xiaochuan can't afford to pay the 60,000 yuan, but as a team, he must not let his players, especially the captain, feel cold. Otherwise, the next time a teammate is in trouble, who will dare to step up?
