Then the question is, why do the teams in Japan and West Asia send their main players to play the AFC Champions League with all their might?

As Xu Zhonghao mentioned it, Lebanese famous defender Alaki fell to the ground and was diagnosed with a shoulder injury and would undergo surgery. It is highly likely that he would miss the Asian Cup.

In response to this, the Lebanese media were naturally furious and angrily accused Xu Zhonghao of abolishing his national team's number one star, making the Lebanese men's basketball team's prospects in the Asian Cup very bleak.

But in fact, many Chinese fans believe that Xu Zhonghao's foul was not intentional, but an ordinary blocking foul, and his actions were not as big as he was in the CBA.

Therefore, Alaki's injury was accidental, but it also caused many Chinese fans to reflect: In the past, Guangdong and Liaoning, and now Guangsha, the practice of not playing in the AFC Champions League without the main players is correct?

Previously, because Guangsha had just finished the CBA Finals, and most of the main players had to represent Sichuan to play in the National Games preliminaries, the lineup for participating in the AFC Champions League this time was Brown and other foreign players, and young players.

The result is conceivable. Guangsha suffered a crushing defeat in every game. This result also made many media people and netizens think that this is a loss of face for the CBA. Just like Liaoning last year, it either sends the strongest lineup to play or withdraws directly. The prize money for the AFC Champions League champion is only a few million yuan. Apart from various costs, the players actually don’t get much money. Moreover, there is only one champion, and even less bonus money that cannot win the championship.

This is the main reason why CBA teams are unwilling to send their main players to play in the AFC Champions League. Everything is caused by money. After all, Sichuan has given too much. In the event of a conflict of time, it will definitely be the National Games to abandon the AFC Champions League.

However, basketball itself is a confrontational event, and injuries are inevitable. It is regrettable that Alaki's reimbursement is regrettable, but Xu Zhonghao did not intend to do so. We cannot assume that if the CBA champion team sends the main force to get injured?

, in the final analysis, where does the CBA place the AFC Champions League? That is, if you don’t participate in this kind of competition, you will offend the Asian Basketball League and you will wear it for the Chinese men’s basketball team in the future. Pay attention to it, as if the prize money is not high, you will have to bear the risk of public opinion and injuries.

So the question is, why do the teams in Japan and West Asia send their main players to play the AFC Champions League with all their might?
