Some Chinese nicknames for Rockets players, plus their huge following in China

Speaking of China, when was the last time one of our guys got a shoe deal? I always loved that people would get random shoe deals with the rocks.

I remember Artest and Mutombo got ones, anyone know if lowry or, god forbid, if ariza got any yet? Landry??

 

I believe Landry got one with Peak. Hayes has one, too, if I'm not mistaken.

 

I'm glad landry has one, and I remember Hayes getting one. But i mean the new guys. The ones that were added last year/offseason

 

Hmm not that I know of.

 

Yeah I think Carl has one now.. Chuck's expired I believe.

 

I just saw a Battier IV, I say again, Battier FOUR shoe commercial here in China, rofl.

THE GAME"S NOT OVER UNTIL I SAY ITS OVER
- Shane Battier in his shoe commercial

 

Here are some more:
Phil Jackson: KFC
Chris Anderson: Bird man
MJ: bang zhu （Head of gang）
Adleman: Brooks' dad (For allowing Brooks shooting all the time)

 

nice to see so many creative nicknames for our players,Chinese fans have been the biggest group in favor of rox out of the states,even with yao out still so many chinese fans support us.

 

:grin: :grin: :grin: That is really awesome.

 

all the referees:kobe's dad or LeBron's dad

 

translation doesn't come out the same as in chinese but they are all compliments

 

A more accurate translation is "divine bird".

4-Carat also actually sounds like Scola in Chinese.

 

Hello Everyone, Happy new year! I'm Richard, a Chinese basketball fan for Houston Rockets. I love Big Yao, T-mac, Shane Battier, Carl, Louis, Chuck Heyes, Aaron, Kyle, Chass, Trevor...David Anderson and Taylor is also ok.
I enjoy the games played by them very very much...
It's a pity that Yao could not come on to the court to play his games this season. Also a great pity that T-mac is leaving us this year...He brought me
quite amazing and impressive basketball in the past 5 years. I wish he could get a nice contract next season and keep on giving magic performances on the court.
Darel will have a best decision on deal of T-mac.
Best wishes to Rockets, Best regards to all the Rockets Fans.

Richard Jiang
