Zhejiang Golden Bulls, formerly Zhejiang Wanma Cyclones (浙江万马旋风) or Zhejiang Wanma or Zhejiang Whirlwinds or Zhejiang Cyclone are a Chinese professional basketball team in the Chinese Basketball Association, based in Yiwu, Zhejiang, China. They are also sometimes known as the Zhejiang Horses because of the wanma (万马) in their name, which means "ten thousand horses". They play their home games at Yiwu Gymnasium.
In the 2004–2005 season, the Zhejiang Whirlwinds finished in sixth place in the South Division, out of the playoffs. In 2005–2006 they suffered exactly the same fate.

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or bulls:
“Go, throng each other’s drawing-rooms,
Ye idols of a petty clique:
Strut your brief hour in borrowed plumes,
And make your penny-trumpets squeak:
Deck your dull talk with pilfered shreds
Of learning from a noble time,
And oil each other’s little heads
With mutual Flattery’s golden slime.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“It is a fruitful island of the sea-world, a great Ithaca, there parched and stony and here trodden by flocks and curly- headed bulls and heavy with thick-set grain.”
—Christina Stead (1902–1983)
