Mr. Goldberg said:
He wants to sign Ming as soon as possible. If Ming gets injury tomorrow, he will still get paid. But if Ming has any physical problem at Turkey or Canada without contract with Rockets, he and CBA will get nothing.

Ming's salary will be the highest in NBA history for #1 pick.

If the Chinese National Games doesn't conflict with NBA (including pre season games), Ming can attend the 10th Chinese National Games.


But Ming has left for Turkey at last night. This is a photo that Ming on the plane to Turkey.

Today's Ming's interview:

He is glad that Rockets had signed with Sharks.

Mr. Goldberg didn't call Ming after he arrived Beijing.

No pay, no success. He has a great pressure, but he has accustomed to such pressure.

He can adapt to Rockets very quickly. He can understand most English words about basketball.

Now he makes ship models at his spare time.

Windandsea,

You refer to Yao as "Ming". Could you set us straight, what is the proper way to address Yao. Do fans yell out "Ming" or "Yao" or "Yao Ming" when greeting him?

How does the Chinese media refer to him?


thanks,
os

Yao Ming is at the airport.

OS:

"Yao Ming" is the best way to greet him. "Ming Yao" is the worst way. "Yao" OR "Ming" is fine.

Checking out the first picture....he'd better sign quick if that yellow strap is the only thing keeping him from falling out of his seat or the plane!:D
Is that taken through a plane window(HUGE WINDOW!) or a shuttle window?

Uhhhhh....not a strap but rather lining on his jacket.

SA Rocket:

It's the window of a "big" bus, which took Ming to the airport.

Mr. Goldberg has talked with the official of CBA this morning. He said that CBA will give him a respond in one week.

That's a cool top that Yao Ming has on in the second picture. Just thought I'd let everyone know. I wonder if they are selling them outside China??

Because Billy Ray has to talk to Peggy Sue who has to get Jimmy Red's permission to interview Bubba, who of course reports to Joe Bob and his wife Anna Belle, who must get a signature from Tex.


Got it?
