Regular season
Xinjiang Flying Tigers finished the regular season with 26–4 in second place. Before the playoffs, it was determined that one of their players, Sou Song Cun, was not of Chinese nationality, thus violating the rule that each team may only have two foreign players. The league subsequently ruled Xinjiang loss with the score of 0–20 in all 18 matches in which Sou played, 15 of them wins originally. As a result, Xinjiang's dropped to eleventh place with 11–19, and they failed to advance to the playoffs. # 2007–08 CBA season Team 1Guangdong Southern Tigers 26 4 .866 — 14–1 12–3 2Jiangsu Dragons 21 9 .700 5 14–1 7–8 3Shandong Lions 19 11 .633 7 14–1 7–8 SD 1–1 (202–189) LN4Liaoning Hunters 19 11 .633 7 11–4 8–7 5Dongguan Leopards 18 12 .600 8 11–4 7–8 DG 2–0 BY6Bayi Rockets 18 12 .600 8 12–3 6–9 7Fujian Xunxing 17 13 .566 9 11–4 6–9 8Zhejiang Lions 15 15 .500 11 10–5 5–10 ZJ 1–1 (181–175) BJ 9Beijing Ducks 15 15 .500 11 8–7 7–8 10Zhejiang Whirlwinds 12 18 .400 14 9–6 3–12 11Xinjiang Flying Tigers 11 19 .366 15 5–10 6–9 12Yunnan Bulls 8 22 .266 18 6–9 2–13 YN 1–1 (240–238) SH13Shanghai Sharks 8 22 .266 18 4–11 4–11 14Jilin Northeast Tigers 7 23 .233 19 3–12 4–11 15Shaanxi Kylins 6 24 .200 20 6–9 0–15 16Shanxi Zhongyu 5 25 .166 21 5–10 0–15 + Key to colors Top 8 teams advance to the Playoffs
