Among the CBA league, which team is considered a real giant team?

In the 25-year development history of the CBA, there are only two teams that can be counted as giants, namely the ten-crown Guangdong team and the eight-crown Bayi team. However, the two teams took two different paths in their respective development. Team Bayi quickly deteriorated into a weak team because of its policies and announced its exit from the CBA after the 2019-2020 season, while Guangdong got stronger and stronger and are both hot contenders for the championship.
