The once-"one-team-dominates" pattern in the CBA (exemplified by dynasties like Bayi, Guangdong, and Liaoning) is being dismantled through measures such as liberalized player transfers, the draft system, a salary cap, adjustments to foreign player policies, and team rebuilding. Beijing Royal Fighters' 94-81 victory over Liaoning in the opening game of the 2025-26 season, which ended Liaoning's initial two-game winning streak, signals a shift fueled by factors like Beijing's new signings integrating successfully and Liaoning's roster transition following the retirement of Han Dejun and the departure of Zhang Zhenlin, rather than mere coincidence. This development enhances league suspense and competitive balance, significantly boosting entertainment value, attracting more fans, and increasing commercial appeal.
