The NBA season is already halfway through, and recently ESPN journalists have commented on the most impressive players in the first half of the season, listing eight players. Most of them are young people under 30 years old. Harden is the only player over 30 among them; he is currently 35 years old and tops the league, with no veteran able to match his influence in the first half of the season. The other seven are Towns, CC Cunningham, Wembanyama, Daniels, Ball, the Nets' Johnson, and the Clippers' Powell. Powell also shines brightly in Harden's system. Because Harden can attract defensive resources to swarm around Powell, Powell has played the most efficient and outstanding game of his career this season. According to statistics, when Harden is unable to play, Powell's data and shooting percentage experience a cliff-like decline. Many people say that Harden is not the core of the Clippers because of his low shooting percentage and the fact that Powell and Zubac have thick legs, but the fact is that Harden is the leader. When ESPN praised Harden as the most impressive player in the first half of the season, renowned journalist Tim Bontemps also evaluated him. Bontemps believes that Harden's performance in the first half of this year is the reason why the Clippers can rank fifth in the West. Bontemps also compares Philadelphia and the Clippers.

On January 19th, Beijing time, the NBA regular season saw the Warriors defeat the Wizards at home, sending them to a ninth consecutive loss. However, the Warriors suffered two key injuries during the game, with Draymond Green leaving after only three minutes due to injury and Stephen Curry's right ankle being stepped on by Poole, causing him to painfully exit the game early. The Warriors managed to overturn the game against the Wizards at home, with Wiggins scoring 31 points, grabbing 11 rebounds, providing 4 assists, blocking 2 shots, and stealing 1 ball, leading the team to victory in an impressive performance; however, their win was overshadowed by a series of injuries. In the first quarter, Draymond Green suddenly left the court due to tension in his left calf and had to withdraw from the game after just three minutes upon his return. In the crucial moments of the fourth quarter, Curry blocked Poole on defense but was then stepped on by Poole as he fell, causing Curry to roll in pain and limp off the court, ultimately leaving the game early. After the game, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr stated that Curry claimed his ankle sprain was not serious, and Green will undergo an MRI tomorrow. Both players have now been placed on the daily observation list. Curry commented on his ankle injury, saying, "I feel good, see you next Tuesday." Currently, the Warriors are plagued with injuries, with Kuminga recovering from an injury, Green returning only to play for three minutes before getting injured again, potentially missing some…

On the afternoon of January 18th, Beijing time, Shanghai Shenhua played a friendly match against Dalian Yingtian, a newly promoted team in the Chinese Super League (CSL). After more than 90 minutes of competition, Shanghai Shenhua emerged victorious with a 2-0 scoreline, demonstrating their superior strength as the runners-up of the CSL. For Shanghai Shenhua, although this was just an ordinary friendly match, it brought two pleasant surprises for head coach Slavisa Jokanovic. The first pleasant surprise was the 18-year-old midfield prodigy Yang Haoyu, who had just been promoted from the Shenhua youth team. In this game, Yang Haoyu started and seized the opportunity to showcase his abilities. He did not disappoint Coach Jokanovic's trust in him. Playing in midfield, he focused on interceptions and tackles in defense while fully utilizing his creativity in the frontcourt. He not only made several high-quality passes to the attacking line but also displayed his impressive long-range shooting skills. In the 10th minute of the game, Yang Haoyu scored a high-quality long-range shot, breaking the deadlock on the field and helping the team take an early 1-0 lead. At such a young age, Yang Haoyu possesses extraordinary football skills, which undoubtedly impressed Coach Jokanovic. Based on this performance alone, Yang Haoyu is expected to receive special attention and training from Jokanovic in the new season. The second pleasant discovery for Shanghai Shenhua was former naturalized national player Dai Weijun. After the end of his loan period with Shenzhen FC, Dai Weijun returned to the Shanghai Shenhua squad. However, it remains uncertain whether he will…

On January 18, 2025, Guangzhou Long Lions visited Xinjiang Team. After a long siege, Guangzhou Team found their rhythm with Zhao Rui's three-point shot, hitting all four attempts before finally giving up resistance and losing to Xinjiang Team with a score of 97-117. This was the second game back for Guo Ailun after his return, coming off the bench to play 26 minutes, scoring 6 points and 2 rebounds, while also contributing the second-highest number of assists in the game with 8. It is worth noting that compared to the first game back against Guangdong Team when he scored no points and had not fully recovered from his health concerns, fearing another injury and not daring to exert himself fully, Guo Ailun, despite missing several shots in this game, let go of his psychological reservations and increased the frequency of his breakthroughs and attacks on the basket. However, it was precisely because Guo Ailun only managed to score a meager 6 points that more malicious and mocking comments appeared in the live broadcast chat, such as "Guo 0 points," "Shisanling," and even those who praised Xu Jie to belittle Guo Ailun, saying that Guo Ailun's era has ended and now it is Xu Jie's time. Of course, I am not saying that Xu Jie is not good. To be honest, I also admire Xu Jie very much. I have repeatedly expressed in my works that Xu Jie is the soul figure of the Guangdong Team. With his excellent passing vision, keen rebounding ability, and precise shooting skills, Xu Jie can…

The first training camp of the year for the Chinese men's national football team has concluded in Hainan. The results of the evaluation conducted by head coach Ivanković on several new national players have also been released. According to reports from related media and sources, three new national players have successfully passed the assessment and will remain with the team to play against Saudi Arabia and Australia in the 18th round of matches in March. Who are these three new national players? Please continue reading! The first is Hou Yongyong! His selection this time was a natural fit. It is reported that Ivanković had long wanted to recruit Hou Yongyong for an evaluation. However, since Hou Yongyong previously played for Lanhjem in the Norwegian First Division in Europe, it was very inconvenient for him to travel back and forth. Long-distance travel could potentially affect the player's condition if he turned out to be unsuitable. Nevertheless, Hou Yongyong remained under Ivanković's observation. Honestly, as the top scorer and MVP of the Norwegian First Division, Hou Yongyong undoubtedly possesses a certain level of ability. Therefore, during the winter break, Ivanković specially arranged for Hou Yongyong to join the national team for an evaluation. Currently, the evaluation of Hou Yongyong seems to be going well. Moreover, the key point is that Hou Yongyong is about to join the new Chinese Super League team Yunnan Yulong. This way, Hou Yongyong can be called up by Ivanković at any time. The second is Wu Shaocong. Previously, Wu Shaocong was the first domestic player to go…

Too strong! 2-0 start, 4-0 surge, 6-3: World No. 2 completely defeats World No. 1 Trump Beijing time January 19th news, the 2025 snooker Masters continued. In the second semi-final that just ended, the world's second "Brother K" Karen Wilson was in excellent form and defeated the world's first "Accuracy King" Judd Trump 6-3, advancing to the final of this year's Masters with a strong momentum, one step away from the championship.‌ The Snooker Masters is one of the three major events in snooker, an event that all players attach great importance to. In this competition, the world's first "Accuracy King" Judd Trump and the world's second "Brother K" Karen Wilson led the charge, and they also proved their world rankings were not undeserved with outstanding performances. In the first round, "Brother K" Wilson eliminated Zhang Anda, the national championship winner, 6-4, and started his championship journey in a strong manner.

Shanghai Shenhua head coach Slutzky arranged a friendly match against Dalian Yingbo to test the team's training results during this period. In this match, Shenhua's ace player Dai Weijun performed well, scoring an impressive goal in the second half after receiving an assist from veteran Yu Hanchao. Dai Weijun's excellent performance helped Shenhua secure a 2-0 victory over their opponents, impressing many fans who believe he has a bright future. As we all know, since joining Shenhua in the summer transfer window of the 2023 Chinese Super League season, Dai Weijun has not been able to demonstrate his full potential in matches. Prior to joining Shenhua, Dai Weijun had a salary dispute with his former club Shenzhen, which led to him not being allowed to play for them. Without systematic training and competition for more than half a year, his form was significantly affected. Under these circumstances, after joining Shenhua, Dai Weijun struggled to find his rhythm in matches. Last season, he experienced a career low point at Shenhua, which was disappointing for many fans. Fortunately, after being loaned to Shenzhen Xinpengcheng, he delivered commendable performances. Shenzhen Xinpengcheng's successful relegation survival in the last round of the league was directly related to Dai Weijun's outstanding contributions. Seeing Dai Weijun perform so well at Shenzhen, Shenhua eagerly recalled him. At the same time, Shenhua head coach Slutzky gave Dai Weijun the opportunity to represent the team in friendly matches. The saying "Opportunities are for those who are prepared" applies perfectly to Dai Weijun. When representing Shenhua in matches, he repaid the…
