The one-point victory over Beikong has passed for a day, but there is still no news of the referee being punished. Every time when players or head coaches discuss the issue of referees, the CBA company will issue a fine overnight or give a warning. However, in the case of referees blatantly blowing whistles, they turn a blind eye. For these referees in the CBA, a demerit system should be implemented. Each referee should start with 12 points, and for each incorrect or missed call, points should be deducted along with a monetary penalty. If the number of incidents becomes too frequent, their license should be revoked. If the CBA could manage these referees in such a manner, the situation would surely improve. Otherwise, if this continues, the number of wrongful cases in the league will only increase. Guangdong narrowly defeated Beikong, and if not for the team's own strong capabilities, they would have certainly lost due to the referees' biased calls. In the final moments of the game, Shen Zijie grabbed Xu Xin's arm, Zhang Fan made an early foul during free throws, and Zhu Songwei pushed Xu Jie before grabbing the rebound. Any one of these three instances, if fairly called by the referees, would have ended the game earlier. However, they deliberately chose to ignore it, and such refereeing issues continued to occur in the last 10.2 seconds, making it hard to believe that it was just a mistake. If not blowing the whistle on Zhu Songwei pushing Xu Jie was because the referees wanted to leave…

On the night of January 17th, Beijing time, the third quarter-final match of the 2025 Snooker Masters concluded. Although Ding Junhui took a 3-1 lead in the first half, World No. 1 Judd Trump exploded in the second half, unleashing a streak of five consecutive victories from just after 10:30 pm to before midnight, less than an hour and a half later. Ding Junhui was overwhelmed, ultimately losing 3-6 and exiting the competition in the quarter-finals. Entering 2025, Ding Junhui has faced Trump twice, both in exhibition matches. He won both matches in the Hangzhou Invitational and Lhasa Challenge, each with a total score of 5-4, including a remarkable comeback in the Hangzhou Invitational where he turned the tables after Trump made a maximum break of 147 and led 4-1, securing match point. These two victories have filled Chinese fans with high hopes for Ding Junhui, hoping he could defeat Trump again at one of the three major snooker events, the Masters, achieving a triple kill against the world's top player. In the first half, Ding Junhui played exceptionally well, taking the lead by scoring 70 points in the opening game, followed by another victory with 74 points in the second game's complex situation. Trump responded with 75 points in the third game to win one back. Ding Junhui then scored 72 points in the fourth game to complete a single-game reversal, leading Trump 3-1 into the intermission. In the first four games, Ding Junhui seized opportunities, demonstrating his strong ability to seize the initiative, scoring three times over 70…

Zhou Qi gets ejected upon return! Reasons exposed, will he face CBA punishment? On January 17th, Beijing time, in the CBA regular season match between Beijing Men's Basketball and Qingdao Men's Basketball, Zhou Qi, who had just recovered from an injury, once again paid a price for his lack of composure. He only played two quarters before being ejected from the game after arguing with the referee and receiving two technical fouls (Ts) within less than two minutes at the start of the third quarter. According to CBA tradition, Zhou Qi is likely to face severe penalties from the basketball association this time, with at least a fine being inevitable. The CBA has always been strict in punishing conflicts between players and referees. Many fans are also concerned about why Zhou Qi was so angry this time that he risked getting a T by directly arguing with the referee? From the game video, it can be seen that Zhou Qi was mainly dissatisfied with the refereeing standards of referee No. 59. In the 10th minute of the third quarter, Beijing Men's Basketball held the ball and attacked, and Zhou Qi received the ball and prepared to drive to the basket. However, he collided with Yang Hanshen of Qingdao Men's Basketball and fell to the ground. Zhou Qi quickly passed the ball to other teammates. At that time, the referee did not make any indication. Zhou Qi believed that Yang Hanshen had the suspicion of blocking because Yang Hanshen made a foot movement when he started. Zhou Qi therefore communicated and…

Translation of the article content into English: Since Guangdong team cut off Les, Guangdong men's basketball has been looking for a new fourth foreign aid. They quickly spread the news and were ready to sign with Thales Bart. This player is 27 years old, 1.97 meters tall, and a forward who previously played for Guangxi Weizhuang men's basketball team. Guangdong signed him to strengthen their frontcourt strength. However, there was no further news soon after, possibly because the negotiations between the two sides did not reach an agreement. Later, a new target appeared, named DeShawn Nix. This player is 22 years old, 1.93 meters tall, and weighs 100 kilograms. He has previously played for NBA teams such as the Rockets and Timberwolves. It can be seen from his weight that this player is very strong even though he is a guard. He can be compared to Bledsoe, but his shooting ability is slightly inferior. Later, he was sought after by multiple CBA teams, but there was no further news afterward. The third piece of news is about D'Angelo Russell, who is 27 years old, 1.80 meters tall, and weighs 75 kilograms. His characteristics are similar to those of Guangdong's former small foreign aid, Waters, with excellent ball-handling ability, good breakthrough and organizing skills, but average shooting accuracy. However, it is still uncertain whether this foreign aid will join. Yesterday, it was rumored that Blackney would join Guangdong, which started when Blackney posted a picture of Xu Jie on his social media platform. Many fans began to speculate if he was…

This season, the young Rockets have played with a very good state and momentum. Recently, the Rockets have defeated several strong teams in a row, achieving a four-game winning streak, and currently have a regular-season record of 26 wins and 12 losses, ranking second in the West. Before the start of the season, the Rockets were not favored, and most people thought they were just a play-in level team. However, under the leadership of head coach Udoka, the Rockets have built an excellent defensive system and have been making great progress, surprising everyone. The Rockets now have some shortcomings, mainly the lack of a superstar scorer. With Jalen Green's state still unstable, the Rockets still need a key player who can make the decisive shot. It can be seen that in this year's trade rumors, the Rockets have been linked with players like Fox and Butler. However, there are also reports that the Rockets are currently unwilling to break up their existing lineup. They want to see how things go before deciding whether to make big trades in the summer. However, as the schedule progresses and the Rockets' record is so outstanding, they have begun to fantasize about the championship. In this situation, the Rockets may reconsider trading. Today, ESPN reporter Tim MacMahon discussed the Rockets' situation on his podcast. He said that the Rockets understand internally that they ultimately need to pursue a star scorer to become contenders. The reporter stated that two potential trade target players the Rockets may focus on in the future are Booker and Fox.…

The recent situation of the Suns has been nothing short of disastrous. They even lost a game against the Hornets, who were already on a ten-game losing streak, which is incredibly disappointing. The atmosphere within the team, from top to bottom, has become utterly terrible. Everyone is filled with embarrassment and anger due to the loss, and a sense of oppression hangs over the entire team. Even outside the court, there are many discordant sounds constantly coming out. It is reported that after the game, there was a severe internal conflict in the Suns' locker room. The team members seemed to be blaming each other and not giving in because of the loss, as if they were "fighting for attention" over the defeat. There are rumors that Beal, considered the "third giant" of the team, had a very intense verbal conflict with the coaching staff. The source of the problem was that Beal openly clashed with a member of the coaching staff in the locker room. Perhaps everyone would be surprised that such a thing could happen in a team with three giants. But the reality is just like this. Obviously, Beal is very dissatisfied with the current situation of the team. He feels that he has made too many sacrifices for the team, but in the end, he still lost the battle that should have been won in the midst of consecutive defeats. The coaching staff always firmly believes that Beal must continue to contribute and make sacrifices for the team. In this process, no one in the team…

Under the leadership of head coach Ivan Kozlovic, the team has achieved unprecedented unity, and they are all confident about the prospects of the national team's World Cup qualifying campaign.

Wei Shihao also showed enough respect and support for Ivan Kozlovic, believing that he has the ability to lead the national team to qualify for the World Cup finals. Fans familiar with Wei Shihao know that such a situation was almost impossible in the past national team. In the eyes of previous national team coaches, Wei Shihao was not only a player who didn't talk much but also a rebellious problem youth. He not only disobeyed the coach's management but also often "fought bravely" in games, digging pits for the national team and becoming a big trouble for the team. He was known as the "thorn" of the national team. Therefore, whether it was Marcello Lippi before or his successor Li Tie, they didn't like Wei…
