About a month ago, cole, conks, brian, and I went to the final home game of the Shanghai Sharks, the local Chinese Basketball Association team.
Now the CBA isn't exactly the best basketball league in the world...in fact it's pretty horrible. And to top it off, the Shanghai Sharks are the worst team in the league.
So, after being accosted outside by scalpers (really, if you've never been crushed on all sides by sketchy Chinese men waving tickets in your face, you should try it, it's an experience) we sat back in our cheap seats, and watched the comedy unfold.

The mascot
One of the opposing players (Shanxi??). Ball hog and a bit of a crybaby

a little too close up
oh, I can't describe it all. The missed shots, lack of defence, the inexplicable calls from the refs. And the cheerleader and mascot dances. That, you'll just have to see for yourself.
