For CBA fans, every season’s All-Star game is a moment of love and hate: On the one hand, the All-Star Game is an indispensable part of a full season, it is also an important part for fans to directly participate in league activities. But on the other hand, the topic degree of CBA’s All-Star game is not high enough in the overall environment, especially in the voting process-compared with NBA next door, its presence as a local league is really a little abnormal, it feels like chicken ribs.
Therefore, when the voting channel for fans of the All-Star starting lineup in CBA2023 was officially opened on February 3 (the voting link can scan the QR code at the end of the text), the new rules were officially introduced-the media voting link was added for the first time: the proportion of media votes is 40%, and the proportion of fans votes is 60%. Under the condition of the same votes, more fans vote to win;
In addition, the new rules also stipulate that the number of players selected for each CBA team will not exceed 3 at most, and the players with the first three votes will be supplemented by the players of other teams behind.
The most obvious change of this rule is to change the previous all-star starting pattern of “Liaoning and Guangdong competing for hegemony.
In the previous all-star starting line-up, there were often 4 players from Liaoning and Guangdong in the starting line. Many CBA fans from other teams expressed their boredom-Liaoning played Guangdong every year, all-Star or Liaoning to play Guangdong, really a bit tired of watching.

2022 All-Star debut
Of course, it is undeniable that the fans on both sides of Liaoning and Guangdong are the absolute backbone of CBA fans in recent years, and they have contributed the majority of CBA All-Star votes. However, liaoyue’s continuous competition for hegemony (and the accompanying football fans) also objectively made the fans of other teams gradually lose their sense of participation and enthusiasm…… Although the current change may not be completely fair to liaoyue fans, it can at least give other team players an opportunity to show their faces in the spotlight and increase the sense of participation of other fans, making CBA All-Star become a CBA All-Star of more people can also make the atmosphere of “all-star” stronger.
Although this is only a small change, it may be criticized in a short period of time to “change the soup without changing the medicine”, but for CBA, hearing the voices of the fans and making changes for this, itself is the embodiment of the good service consciousness of CBA fans-starting this season, from the adjustment of referee scale to the change of all-star starting, CBA, who has been carrying out the epidemic for three years, actively seeks for changes, fans who are accustomed to the same will certainly have different opinions, but changes, whether good or bad, mean that there is a motivation for progress. It is always meaningful to make all-star become more like the Festival of fans.
The participation of professional media also helps to give some players who are excellent in themselves, but the foundation of fans is not big enough to make a debut-CBA All-Star is not only a league activity, it also represents a real honor and an evaluation system serving fans. The establishment of this evaluation system is the same as the specialization of MVP, best lineup and other awards. On the one hand, it can encourage more players to continue their efforts, which also means that the whole league will further mature.
As a media, joining the All-Star vote can further enhance the attention of the CBA league and increase-no matter what the voting media consider is strength, popularity or topic, more discussion will be introduced for CBA.
If the previous starting line-up is just a replica of Liao Yue’s starting line-up, then now we have a chance to see more interesting line up combination: Zhang Zhenlin can be sent to the north, aludu salad Wood and Zeng fanbo have no center front, while the three towers of Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhilin and Hu Jinqiu may appear in the opposite South-in a sense, this is also to do more reference and experiments for China’s troop arrangement in the future men’s basketball.
No matter which league’s all-star, how to create happiness for the fans is always in the front. The fans have seen enough training matches that are all-star. How to improve the appreciation of CBA All-Star is a good start.
Can Wu Qian and Sun Minghui start together in the back court of Zhejiang? Can Guo Allen and Zhang Ning fight side by side for the “master” in the entertainment program? The question that fans want and the actual effect of presentation constitute the expectation of all stars. It would be great if there were more players willing to be selected in self-unfolding of the all-star field to make the all-star truly a show.
