Shanghai Men's Basketball Team has achieved a 15-game winning streak, and it seems that Jiangsu Team may not pose a significant threat to them. If Shanghai wins this game, they will reach a 16-game winning streak. So who can stop Shanghai Men's Basketball Team's winning streak? After finishing the game against Jiangsu Team, Shanghai will face Liaoning on the road on the 14th of this month and Shanxi on the 17th. CCTV will broadcast these two games in four days, with Liaoning waiting to challenge them and Shanxi also ready for the match. These two opponents could potentially cause Shanghai to suffer two consecutive defeats. For Shanghai Men's Basketball Team, this season has been like a roller coaster ride. The first stage was terrible, but the second stage saw a remarkable rebound. With the arrival of foreign player Lofton and new coach Lu Wei, the team went from being at the bottom of the league rankings to achieving a 15-game winning streak, demonstrating an unstoppable momentum. Lofton has proven to be almost invincible in the CBA regular season so far, possessing a wide range of skills. He is feared by tall players and short players alike, and even those who are faster or stronger than him struggle to defeat him. An excellent foreign player can lead the entire team, creating multiple scoring opportunities. To win against Shanghai, one must effectively contain Lofton; otherwise, it will be troublesome. Essentially, Lofton has become the focal point of the team. Before Lofton joined, Shanghai lost to every opponent they faced, but after his…

Recently, topics about Liu Guoliang have been hot in the table tennis world. Shanghai media, which supports Fan Zhendong, has been digging deep into the behind-the-scenes transactions of the 15% stake in WTT World Table Tennis Corporation. Now, another big shot with a connection to Liu Guoliang has been investigated. According to official news, Sun Dong, the Standing Committee Member and Executive Vice Mayor of Xinxiang City, is suspected of serious violations of discipline and law and is currently under investigation. Xinxiang is Liu Guoliang's hometown, and WTT can hold events in Xinxiang, which is not a prominent city, because of Liu Guoliang's connections. In the 2023 Xinxiang WTT Championship, Sun Dong hosted the opening ceremony and was the highest-ranking local official at several Xinxiang event press conferences. According to netizens, the ITTF competitions and WTT matches held six games involving billions of yuan in Henan. Recently, the sports industry's crackdown is still ongoing. Li Quanqiang, the former director of the Volleyball Management Center who retired after Lai Yawen, also fell from grace. This person has been deeply involved in the volleyball world for many years, especially in creating commercial league value. Nowadays, Liu Guoliang is controversial, and the big shot of China Gold Group, who cooperated with WTT, has also been investigated. Many people are sweating for Old Liu, wondering if he can stay clean like his "mentor" Cai Zhenhua and retreat unscathed. More awkwardly, although the slogan of rectifying the fan culture has been shouted for a long time, Wang Chuqin, who has too many fans, has repeatedly…

The main event of the 2025 Australian Open is about to begin and will kick off on January 12th. The most anticipated women's singles matches will be broadcast live by CCTV throughout the tournament. On the first day of competition, Zheng Qinwen, Wang Xinyu, and Yuan Yue will lead the charge. Among them, Zheng Qinwen will face Todorini, Wang Xinyu will face Badosa, and Yuan Yue will face Pavlyuchenkova. Whether these three Chinese players can all advance to the second round is highly anticipated. As the No. 5 seed in the tournament, Zheng Qinwen will face qualifier Todorini, which is also her first match in her bid for the championship. Naturally, she hopes to start with a victory. Judging from the charity exhibition matches held in the past few days, Zheng Qinwen has shown remarkable form, with improvements in serving, changing lines, baseline play, and rallying, all of which are related to her winter training. She should be able to advance smoothly to the next round. However, both Wang Xinyu and Yuan Yue face strong opponents. Especially Wang Xinyu, who was eliminated in the first round from the Brisbane Station to the Adelaide Station, is likely to be eliminated in the same way in the first round of this Australian Open, given her poor recent form. For the new season's Australian Open, CCTV will provide live broadcasts throughout the tournament and has arranged two channels, CCTV5 and CCTV5+, to facilitate domestic fans' viewing. The above is the broadcasting plan for the previous day of the CCTV5 channel, which scheduled to…

In the CBA season, the games on January 11th have undoubtedly become a focus for fans, especially the match between Zhejiang and Beijing men's basketball teams. As the season progresses, more and more teams are striving to improve their rankings, and this game has become an important step for both teams to compete for playoff spots. Zhejiang currently ranks seventh with a record of 19 wins and 9 losses, while Beijing follows closely behind with 19 wins and 8 losses, ranking ninth. Regardless of the final outcome, this game will have a profound impact on the future development of both teams. Zhejiang is playing at home, and although they have been plagued by injuries recently and their lineup is not complete, they still possess a strong home court advantage. Especially with the support of the fans, Zhejiang's performance often sees unexpected improvements. On the other hand, Beijing's core guard, Chen Yingjun, is out due to injury, which undoubtedly weakens the team's overall strength. Despite this, Beijing remains a formidable opponent, and Zhou Qi's dominance in the paint could be the decisive factor in the game. Zhou Qi's performance will directly affect Zhejiang's offensive and defensive strategies, and if he can create enough space and opportunities in the paint, Beijing still has a chance to take the victory away from the away game. Besides this key match, the other games on January 11th are also noteworthy. The match between Shenzhen and Shandong, although Shenzhen's veteran Zhou Peng is in good form, their overall strength has yet to reach the top level.…

The 18th round of the Volleyball Super League will take place this afternoon at 3:30 PM. This round is also the fourth round of the first stage of the playoffs. According to the schedule, the first stage of the playoffs consists of six rounds, with four teams in each of the two groups playing a home-and-away round-robin format. The top two teams from each group will advance to the semi-finals. Currently, the ranking situation is as follows: In Group C, Jiangsu leads with three consecutive victories, Shanghai is second with 2 wins and 1 loss, Fujian is third with 1 win and 2 losses, and Shenzhen is at the bottom of the group with three defeats. In Group D, Tianjin tops the table with three wins in three matches, Liaoning is second with 2 wins and 1 loss, Shandong is third with 1 win and 2 losses, and Beijing has yet to win a match, becoming the hard-luck sister of Shenzhen at the bottom of the standings. As the competition progresses, the qualification situation for both groups will gradually become clear. Here are the matchups for today's eight teams: 15:30 Shenzhen Australian Dragon Tigers vs. Shanghai Bright Dairy Shenzhen Zhongse Longhua seems to have little desire left this season. Their goal was to avoid relegation and remain in the A-level league, which they have already achieved. Winning or losing in the games doesn't affect them much anymore, and they've become a team that gives away points easily. They only won one out of 14 regular-season games, and it's doubtful if…

On January 11th, the fourth round of the 2024-2025 season of the Chinese Women's Volleyball League A-level playoffs will kick off. According to the analysis of the strength of the opposing teams, among the four matches, three have no suspense, and one is uncertain in outcome. It should be noted that CCTV, which has the greatest influence, widest reach, and strongest communication power, did not arrange a live broadcast for the fourth round after broadcasting the first three rounds of the playoffs. After the first three rounds, Group C's Jiangsu ranked first with three consecutive victories, Shanghai ranked second with two wins and one loss, Fujian ranked third with one win and two losses, and Shenzhen ranked fourth with three consecutive defeats. In Group D, the defending champion Tianjin maintained a perfect record with 9 points at the top, Liaoning ranked second with two wins and one loss, Shandong ranked third with one win and two losses, and Beijing Automotive ranked last with three consecutive defeats. In the fourth round of matches, the matchups are as follows: Shenzhen challenges Shanghai (the home team is listed first, same below), Fujian faces Jiangsu; Liaoning challenges Tianjin, and Shandong faces Beijing Automotive. Analyzing the strength, Shanghai defeating Shenzhen, who has not won a game in the playoffs, is not a problem. Jiangsu, led by Zhang Changning, Gong Xiangyu, and Wu Mengjie, defeating Fujian with slightly inferior strength, also has no suspense. Tianjin, led by Li Yingying, Wang Yuanyuan, and Yao Di, taking down Liaoning led by Ding Xia, will not face too much…

On January 10th, Beijing time, the 29th round of the CBA regular season will feature six matches, with major teams such as Liaoning, Guangdong, Guangsha, Xinjiang, and Shanxi all in action. Among these, the top-of-the-table clash between Guangsha and Shanxi has become the focus of this round. However, it is regrettable that this crucial match between Guangsha and Shanxi did not receive the favor of CCTV. In this round, only one game has been confirmed for broadcast by CCTV Sports Channel, which will be the match between Liaoning and Beikong, to be aired during prime time. The 29th round of matches has been divided into two days, on the 10th and 11th. Compared to the games on the following day, these six matches are undoubtedly more attractive. The most anticipated is undoubtedly the battle between Guangsha and Shanxi. Both teams have had outstanding records this season, with Guangsha at the top with 24 wins and 4 losses, while Shanxi ranks second with 21 wins and 6 losses. This round can also be seen as a battle for the top spot. Whether in terms of entertainment value or the intensity of the competition, this match is the most suspenseful of the round. This season, Guangsha and Shanxi have faced each other once, with Guangsha defeating Shanxi, currently leading the head-to-head record 1-0. This time, Guangsha returns home to face the season's first dark horse. Can they continue their previous magic? It should be noted that Guangsha has not lost at home this season, with a current home record of 15 wins…

The Australian Open Tennis Championship is set to begin, with Chinese tennis star Zheng Qinwen emerging as one of the favorites to win the title this season. Last year, she reached the final and finished as the runner-up, also making it to the WTA Finals where she secured second place, propelling her into the world's top 10 rankings. As a result, she has been seeded fifth for this year's Australian Open, making her one of the most anticipated sports figures in China at present. CCTV5, the sports channel of China Central Television, has acquired the broadcasting rights for the event and will provide live coverage throughout the tournament. The draw for the 2025 Australian Open took place on January 9th at 11:30 am, with the top eight seeds in the women's singles category as follows: Aryna Sabalenka Iga Swiatek Coco Gauff Beatriz Haddad Maia Zheng Qinwen Elena Rybakina Jessica Pegula Paula Badosa According to the rules, the top two seeds are placed in separate halves of the draw, followed by a random draw for the third and fourth seeds into either half. The process continues for the fifth to eighth seeds, and so on. Sabalenka and Swiatek were drawn into opposite halves, with the following matchups for the top eight seeds: Sabalenka vs. Zheng Qinwen, Gauff vs. Pegula, Haddad Maia vs. Rybakina, Swiatek vs. Badosa. Last year, Zheng Qinwen, seeded 12th, fought her way to the final but was defeated 0-2 by Sabalenka, finishing as the runner-up. However, she achieved her best performance in a Grand Slam event. Prior to…

Translation: The annual Australian Open will open this Sunday, and due to Zheng Qinwen's championship-winning capabilities, domestic attention is very high. For this reason, CCTV has also spent a lot of money to purchase the broadcasting rights for the Australian Open, with live broadcasts throughout the event. According to the schedule, the Australian Open will hold its draw ceremony at 11:30 am on January 9th, which is today. The top 32 seeds in the women's singles have been announced early, with the top 8 seeds as follows: Sabalenka Swiatek Gauff Boulter Zheng Qinwen Rybakina Pegula Navarro According to the rules, the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds enter the upper and lower halves respectively, then the No. 3 seed and the No. 4 seed draw lots, randomly placed in the upper and lower halves, respectively in the 2/4 area and the 3/4 area, and so on for the No. 5 to No. 8 seeds and the No. 9 to No. 16 seeds. In other words, Sabalenka and Swiatek avoid each other in advance, guarding the upper and lower halves respectively. Whether Gauff and Boulter are in the same half needs to be determined by drawing lots, as well as where Zheng Qinwen, Rybakina, Pegula, and Navarro fall into which half and which division, which is also decided by drawing lots. Last year at the Australian Open, Zheng Qinwen reached the final but unfortunately lost to Sabalenka and finished as the runner-up, still creating her best Grand Slam record. After a year, she has returned to continue her pursuit of the…

The 16th round of the A-level playoffs in the Chinese Women's Volleyball Super League is about to begin, and there are quite a few highlights in this round. The match between Shanghai and Jiangsu teams is the most anticipated, as Shanghai's main player, Fedorovtseva, suddenly left the team, leaving everyone wondering what will happen next. Shanghai has been having a tough time recently, with Fedorovtseva's departure significantly weakening the team's offensive power. Now, they can only rely on two players, Yang Hui and Zhong Hui, to play the main attacking positions, which puts a lot of pressure on them. The coaching staff of the Shanghai team is also trying to adjust their tactical approach, as previous tactics were designed around Fedorovtseva. They now need to re-plan their offensive routes, which is not easy to adapt to on short notice. There have been no significant changes in other positions within the team. The second setter, Liu Yanhan, has been performing steadily, and the blocking coordination between the vice attackers, Yang Jie and Zhang Xinyan, has been quite默契. However, concerns remain regarding the main attacking position. Although young, Yang Hui is technically comprehensive, and her performance has been gradually improving, especially in defense, where she has become more stable in receiving serves. Zhong Hui has more experience and performs well under pressure in critical moments. However, her offensive power is somewhat lacking compared to Fedorovtseva, which may affect the team's scoring efficiency. The substitute players are also training hard, ready to step up at any moment, as the physical exertion during the…
