Guangdong Hongyuan easily defeated Fujian with a score of 116 to 92, securing an eighth consecutive victory, which is a game that makes people feel comfortable! However, after the match, Wat turned around and left. What happened? Was there any unpleasantness during the game? This is a bit confusing. Morand performed steadily like Mount Tai, scoring 15 points, grabbing 12 rebounds, and blocking 3 shots, making it look effortless, just like an elder brother on the court! But what about the other players? It seems like everyone wasn't particularly excited? Did they win too easily? Or is there another reason? Wat's "quick departure" after the game left everyone puzzled. After winning the game, everyone should be happy, but Wat hurriedly left without even saying hello. This move is indeed surprising. Is he feeling unwell? Or is he in a bad mood? Or did he simply forget? Could there be a story behind this? After all, Wat's performance in this game was not bad either. In any case, Wat's actions after the game are indeed intriguing, and many fans are speculating about the reasons. Perhaps, does anyone know the inside story? Morand remained calm as usual, easily scoring a double-double. Morand's performance can be described in four words: steady and solid! Scoring 15 points, grabbing 12 rebounds, and blocking 3 shots, his stats are impressive, and it looks effortless, as if he were strolling. It seems that Fujian's frontcourt is really not enough in front of him. This calm performance contrasts sharply with Wat's haste, making people think that there must…

In the dazzling landscape of global sports, table tennis competitions have always been a fiery battleground where passion and skill intertwine. Each time an event begins, it ignites a thrilling competitive storm that stirs the hearts of spectators. The 2025 WTT Doha Star Challenge has begun, instantly filling the venue with a fervent atmosphere, and the enthusiasm of the fans is also ignited. Firstly, focusing on the women's singles arena, it is like a gathering of top players, where elite table tennis players from various countries harbor dreams of winning championships and file onto the small court one after another. This time, the national team sent a luxurious lineup, firmly occupying 5 seats in the quarter-finals, fully demonstrating the profound foundation of a champion team. Who could have expected that the course of the game would be as unpredictable as the changing weather, with none of the top four seeded players making it into the semi-finals, stunning many fans with wide eyes. Even more surprisingly, all of the top eight seeds were eliminated, a plot twist more gripping than the most exciting suspense drama. Amidst this chaos, two dark horses emerged from the Japanese team: Miu Kihara and Miyuu Kihara. They were already good partners with excellent doubles coordination, having shone brightly on the doubles stage in the past. This time, they turned to the singles arena, where their strength was equally formidable. Especially Miyuu Kihara, as the only player to break through the encirclement among the top 16 seeds, her performance was particularly eye-catching. On the Chinese side, although…

The CBA has completed 15 rounds, and the rankings of the teams have deviated somewhat from the predictions at the beginning of the season, as if they have gone from a vegetable market to a palace. Among the strong teams, Beijing BAIC, Xinjiang Yilite, Liaoning Bensteel, and Zhejiang Guangsha were favored at the start of the season. The top four positions are almost like an old brand account, which is indeed not surprising. Guangdong's ranking and team strength are about the same because Zhou Qi went to Beijing, and it can be said that they are "deservedly famous"! Shanghai Jiu Shi, Zhejiang Chouzhou Jinzu, and Beijing Holdings are really far off the mark, especially Shanghai, where it's hard to even find a victory, resulting in the first team to fire their coach! It's no surprise that these eight teams made it into the top eight, as almost all fans silently guessed in their hearts. Speaking of mid-table teams, Shanxi is seen by many as the most likely to make a comeback, and it seems that this dark horse's strength is quite reliable. Shandong's ranking is really unexpected, the strengthening during the break is confusing, but now it seems that under the leadership of Qiu Biao, Shandong is still interesting. Qingdao's performance is as we expected, but Shenzhen is disappointing. Although they lost Shen Zijie and Salinge, the overall domestic team is still there, the only thing missing is Wu Zihan, who broke his leg while warming up with Guangdong. Tianjin and Nanjing are still stuck in the playoff zone. As…

In the winter of the 2025 season, Beijing Guoan immediately won two consecutive matches in the warm-up games, defeating Changchun Yatai 2-0 in the first game and Chongqing team from the China League One 4-2 in the second game. The team scored a total of six goals in these two matches, leading many fans to say that Quique Setién is more advanced than Gerardo Pelusso. The main point is that Setién's interpretation of possession football is considered more sophisticated than Pelusso's. For instance, his approach to pressing after mistakes involves one-on-one challenges and group efforts, which is the theoretical foundation for him to coach a top club like Barcelona. He emphasizes high pressing and ball control. With the return of national team players to Beijing Guoan, his philosophy of controlling the game will become even more profound. There was a report stating that Setién is a master at chess, with an official chess ranking, indicating that this coach has a very high IQ. Currently, Beijing Guoan aims to maintain a high win rate against weaker teams and avoid being outplayed by strong opponents in high-scoring matches. Last year, Beijing Guoan lost too many points against weaker teams; the author remembers losing twice to Shenzhen Xinpengcheng and once away to Changchun Yatai. At that time, Pelusso was called "Song Jiang," the "timely rain" of the Chinese Super League by fans. Pelusso's regional defense was not ideal, and he used valuable foreign players in central defensive positions. Numbers don't lie; last season, Shanghai Shenhua conceded 20 goals, Shanghai Port 30, Chengdu Rongcheng…

For table tennis players, the established rule is to "judge status by Grand Slam achievements." If you want to have a higher ranking in the history of table tennis, Grand Slam achievements are the entry-level requirement (significant contributions to tactical innovation and the globalization of table tennis should also count). Currently, 11 Grand Slam players have been born. They are: Waldner, Deng Yaping, Liu Guoliang, Wang Nan, Kong Linghui, Zhang Yining, Zhang Jike, Li Xiaoxia, Ding Ning, Ma Long, Fan Zhendong. From the current situation, the closest active national table tennis players to the Grand Slam are: Chen Meng, who is missing a World Championship singles title; Sun Yingsha, who is missing an Olympic singles title; and Wang Manyu, who is missing an Olympic singles title and a World Cup singles title. So, as of now, what is Sun Yingsha's real-time record in the three major competitions? Let's take a look together. Olympic Games: 3 gold + 2 silver Two-time Olympic women's team gold medalist: 2021 Tokyo / 2024 Paris One-time Olympic mixed doubles gold medalist: 2024 Paris (with Wang Chuqin) Two-time Olympic women's singles silver medalist: 2021 Tokyo / 2024 Paris Sun Yingsha participated in the Olympics for the first time in her career at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, where she won both team and singles qualifications. In the singles competition, she lost to Chen Meng and won a silver medal; in the team competition, she teamed up with Chen Meng and Wang Manyu (replacing Liu Shiwen) to win the gold medal, which was Sun Yingsha's first Olympic gold…

On January 13th at the Shenzhen Youth Football Training Base, a highly anticipated friendly match took place between the U20 national football team and the champion of the Zhongguan League, Shenzhen 2028. However, the outcome of the match was unexpected, with the U20 national team losing 1:3 to this amateur team, drawing widespread attention and discussion. Prior to the match, fans and media had high hopes for the U20 national team, believing that they would at least be able to demonstrate some competitiveness against the Zhongguan League champions. However, their performance during the match was disappointing. Shenzhen 2028, with their wealth of match experience and excellent tactical execution, almost completely controlled the rhythm of the game. In contrast, the U20 national team seemed at a loss and struggled to break through the opponent's defense. Despite Liu Chengyu scoring a valuable goal for the national team, salvaging some pride for the team, the performance of the other players was unsatisfactory. The defense was riddled with flaws, allowing Shenzhen 2028's attacks to easily penetrate the national team's defense. This performance undoubtedly raised concerns among fans about the U20 national team's prospects in the Asian Cup. After the match, U20 national team coach Djordjevic remained optimistic about the result, stating that the friendly match held great value. He emphasized that the purpose of the match was to test the training results, refine the team's cohesion, and adapt to the competitive atmosphere. However, such explanations were clearly insufficient to calm the disappointment felt by the fans. After all, a significant defeat is hard to…

On January 19, 2025, Beijing time, the second round of the Australian Open women's doubles just concluded. The Chinese tennis duo, Zheng Saisai and Wang Xinyu, performed outstandingly. They did not give up even when they were trailing 0-3, eventually saving match points. They successfully reversed the No. 11 seed Kudermatova/Sugiyama with a total score of 2-0, winning 6-1, 7-5, and advanced to the Australian Open Round of 16, causing a major upset. After advancing to the Round of 16, Wang Xinyu and Zheng Saisai earned 240 world ranking points, with Wang Xinyu's world ranking reaching 51st and Zheng Saisai's reaching 60th. Kudermatova is a Russian player ranked 15th in the world, while Sugiyama is a Japanese player ranked 52nd in the world. This was the first encounter between the two pairs. Before the game, the official favored the international pair to win, somewhat underestimating the Chinese pair. The match lasted a total of 1 hour and 29 minutes. The Wang Xinyu pair served 2 aces, made 3 double faults, had a first serve success rate of 69%, a first serve point rate of 73%, a second serve point rate of 50%, broke serve 4 times, had a break point conversion rate of 44%, scored 14 winners, and a total of 75 points. The Kudermatova pair made 4 double faults, had a first serve point rate of 72%, a first serve point rate of 55%, a second serve point rate of 39%, a break point conversion rate of 25%, scored 16 winners, and a total of 55 points. First set:…

The Los Angeles Clippers have been on a roll recently, with Leonard returning and finding his best shooting form after a few games. The Clippers then went on to win by 59 points in one game and 29 points in another, totaling an 88-point margin of victory in back-to-back games, tying the NBA record for the largest winning margin. Harden, Leonard, and Powell, among other key players, were able to take it easy after playing just three quarters, with Harden excelling in passing and organization, while Leonard and Powell scored easily on offense, making it difficult for opponents to stop them. At 35 years old, averaging 21+6+8, who is the better shooting guard in history between Harden and Wade? ESPN released Harden's statistics for this season (at 35 years old) and compared them to Wade's, asking who is the better shooting guard in history between Harden and Wade? After changing his playing style in recent years, Harden's scoring numbers have indeed dropped significantly compared to his time with the Rockets. However, Harden's current average of 21+6+8 is something that many All-Star guards can't achieve in their entire careers. This season, Harden is averaging 21.4 points + 5.8 rebounds + 8.0 assists + 1.4 steals + 0.6 blocks, with very impressive stats and team records. It's worth noting that Harden's defensive efficiency this season is 106.6, ranking 40th in the league, which is also the best defensive level of his career. Like Westbrook, Harden has transitioned to focus on passing, organizing, assisting, and defense after his transformation. Westbrook's defense has also…

Xinjiang has dealt a heavy blow to Jilin, firmly defending their home court! This was a victory where everyone was on top of their game, with every player contributing points - it was truly a united effort! The three foreign players each displayed their unique skills. Lawson scored effortlessly, both inside and outside, quickly surpassing 20 points. He played with ease, demonstrating a comprehensive ability to pass and defend well. Hagens' defense was solid, with consecutive layups, dunks, and even a three-pointer, as he prepares for the upcoming away trip. Peterson was not to be outdone, with his reliable three-point shooting that was impressively consistent. He didn't need to attempt long-range shots to prove himself as a valuable foreign player; his playing time was limited but he remained energetic. Lawson, on the other hand, played for a significant duration, while the other two foreign players were close to twenty minutes each. Our domestic players, such as Qi Lin, Zhao Rui, Abudu Salamu, and Li Yanzhe, did not play for extended periods but still put in commendable performances. Abudu Salamu scored efficiently, easily reaching double digits, and his form is recovering quickly. Zhao Rui had a low desire to shoot but focused on organizing and defending, performing quite well. Li Yanzhe was active in the paint, grabbing rebounds and protecting the rim, though he had some issues with fouls and needed more rest. Today's starting lineup included Ilifu Lahti, Aizimaiti, and Xierzati, all of whom were full of energy, with their playing time maximized and their form maintained well! Young players…

With the Houston Rockets' decisive victory over the Portland Trail Blazers, Jalen Green once again became the focus of Houston, scoring 26 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 steal in just three quarters, achieving a league-leading plus-minus (+23). In this game, he extended his streak of consecutive double-digit scoring games to 10. If this momentum continues, he is well on his way to securing a spot in the Western Conference All-Star reserve lineup. However, relying solely on Green would not have been enough to completely turn the tide of the game. According to Shen Jing, had it not been for head coach Udoka's harsh words during halftime, the second half of the game might have lacked energy and aggression. Fortunately, the coaching staff and players reached a consensus on winning, otherwise their position among the top three in the West would have been at risk. Facing the relentless offensive onslaught from the young team, Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups seemed helpless. The outside shooting of Green, the inside play of Shen Jing, and the bench contributions of Ison and Whitmore all displayed a strong desire to score. Their tidal wave of attacks directly carried them to victory. At the same time, Billups also mentioned the team's rebuilding and development, suggesting that the current Houston could serve as a reference. Although their roster is filled with many talented newcomers, playing time and shooting opportunities may not be evenly distributed. The No. 3 pick in the 24th draft, Sheppard, is the most typical example. However, their draft picks have proven to…
