Brandon Robinson spent much of the year in China, trying to keep the wolf from the door. If you want to know what the hell I'm referring to, then click here.

Brandon Robinson has had a weird year. His performance has been inconsistent, and he had a very meh start to the season (averaging 10/4 through December), but while Liaoning have spent the whole year trying to replace him, they haven't done so yet. The Hunters brought in Sean Banks for a trial in January, but he was still recovering from injury, which gave Brandon a stay of execution. And although Liaoning this past week bought Carlos Powell out of his D-League contract and signed him, Robinson is still there, playing as recently as today (recording 22 points and 4 rebounds). Powell is due to start playing next week, so seemingly Robinson's time is coming to a close, but it's been an interesting story of willpower. (Robinson played for Shaanxi last year and averaged 25/10/3/3; like O-Oy before him, he's another example of the CBA's improvements this year. Slight improvements.)
