Sina Lions, who joined the Chinese Basketball Association two years ago, quit the league after two dismal seasons, the Xinhua news agency reported yesterday. The Taipei-based Lions, who finished next to last in the 2002-2003 season, informed the league that it was dropping out, the agency quoted Wang Du, the CBA's deputy director, as saying. "We understand the Lions' decision," Wang said. "If they ask us to return to the Chinese league in the future, we can have discussions on it." Sina was one of the best teams in Taiwan Province's ailing league, winning the title three years in a row between 1996-98. But during their CBA debut in 2001-2002, the Lions finished eighth out of 13 teams. They finished last season at 7-19. |
