Jeremy Lin gets the NMA treatment after the Knicks' guard became an overnight sensation over the past week. Lin scored 23 points (including a dunk) while notching another career-high ten assists in a 107-93 Knicks' win against the Wizards in Washington D.C. The only thing that could make this story better is if Whoopi Goldberg took over as coach. more ›

The rumors were true! According to Mirror Football, Shanghai Shenhua have offered Chelsea star Didier Drogba upwards of £300,000 (almost $465,000) per week to come play in China. That's half again the enormous contract signed with Nicolas Anelka just last month. more ›

Despite the season ending injury to Ryan Forehan Kelly, a gutsy Shanghai Sharks team had enough in the tank to see off a limited but direct Fosham Dralions team and continue to push up the CBA table after winning 95-88 at home. more ›

The Shanghai Sharks won yet again at home but had to do it the hard way after a disastrous third quarter undid the excellent work of a swashbuckling first half. The scoreline will tell you that the Sharks beat Qingdao Eagles 69-63 but the home side will be kicking themselves after letting the game get so close in the first place. more ›

The Sharks finally won a game on the road despite the continued absences of Liu Wei and Tseng Wen-ting. Ryan Forehan-Kelly, who was also expected to be out injured, was passed fit and Shanghai needed him to steady the nerves of his younger team mates and combine with a swaggering Mike Harris to lead the Sharks to victory against a suitably villainous Bayi Rockets team by a score of 94-85. more ›

The Yuanshen crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief after the Sharks held on to overcome a feisty Shanxi Dragons team to move their impressive home record up to 4-1. The score was 92-90 but it shouldn't have got that close. The Sharks almost threw away a victory but have Mike Harris and Meng Lingyuan to thank for getting them over the finishing line. more ›

The margin was 107-99 and the Sharks once again found themselves caught up in their second shoot-out in three games. more ›

Occasionally spellbinding, sometimes hard on the eyes; tonight’s victory against Jilin Tigers was a mixture of poetry and uppercuts as Shanghai Sharks crashed the boards and chased down their opponents when they had to but still found the time to dazzle the crowd when the opportunity presented itself. more ›

A swashbuckling, free flowing Shanghai Sharks overcame the odds and beat the more fancied Guangsha Lions in their first home game of the season and in doing so, erased the bitter memories of the three consecutive defeats on the road. Coach Daniel Panaggio will be pleased with what he saw from the sidelines as his team overcame their more illustrious opposition. more ›

Now with the NBA lockout tentatively resolved, training camp and free agency are just around the corner, scheduled to begin on December 9th. Which means the likes of Wilson Chandler, J.R. Smith, Kenyon Martin and Aaron Brooks are probably wracking their brains for ways out of their contracts harder than Kim Basinger after she signed up to do Boxing Helena. more ›

Once more the Sharks hustled, fought and played good defense, and once more Shanghai finds themselves on the losing side. The Sharks have lost their third straight road game to begin the season at 0-3, after falling 102-98 against the Foshan Longlions. more ›

Another road game, another hard defeat, another ‘what-might-have-been?’ result, and another missed opportunity for some much-needed positivity. The Sharks fell to their second successive defeat in a game which had flashes of hope, before being ultimately quashed in the cruelest of fashions. more ›

Shanghai Shenhua's coach was so enraged by the play-acting of his own midfielder that he stormed angrily onto the pitch and dragged the offending injury-faker to his feet. more ›

CCTV5, China's national sports channel, decided to cease coverage of the country's best-supported pro sports league towards the end the 2008 in response to a disorderly occurence which took place during a Beijing Guoan - Wuhan FC match. CCTV bigwigs, and presumably all those tuning in at home, were left spluttering into their teacups in disgust when a fracas broke out between Wuhan's big money signing Li Weifeng and Beijing's Lu Jiang. The on-field rumpus which ensued led to the Hubei province-based team pulling out of the CSL in protest at the CFA's decision to ban Li Weifeng for eight matches as punishment for his misdemeanours. more ›
