    Does this game start in 2 hours, or 26 hours?

    Either way I'll be watching. China controls their own destiny.

    Haha, first. I think it starts in 2 hours. The general consensus is that Slovenia is a better team, and CNT has a at most a 40% chance of winning. But I have never been the first to reply a thread in the past, so who knows.

    well it's the 5th game in 6 days for yao. it's going to be extremely hard for china to win if yao is too fatigued. I wanted to bet slovenia -8 just because of that, but I just can't bet against yao.

    LET'S GO CHINA!!!!! SHOW THESE BUMS HOW WIN YAO!!!!!

    yao goes for 30 pts 15 rebs 3 assts 3 blks tonight.

    It's starting in one hour, 1:30 Tokyo time, 12:30 Hong Kong time. Anybody from hong kong, just watch it on Cable Sports.

    Game starts at 11:30pm Houston time.

    From the comments of other posters in other WBC game threads, TVKOO seems to be the best way to watch the game through internet.

    You can download the software here...

    They spread this "Barrel theory" amongst Chinese media...

    It is the shortest wood piece determines the amount that a barrel contains, not the longest wood piece of that barrel.

    Although there isn't any super star in the Slovenia team, each of their players are strong and didn't have any apparent weakest link. Although we have Yao in our team, this exceptionally long wood piece is surrounded by a bunch of mediocre players (short wood pieces). Our barrel can't carry much water. Sad.

    I just hope they play with hearts and courage in this game. We need the Athen miracle to overcome Slovenia.

    The MVP voting is r****ded. If any player on China wins other than Yao. That would be a miracle, and it would bode will for their chances of winning.

    the chinese guards have a tough time getting the ball to yao and i understand that, because they suck, but can they atleast attempt to pass it to him more often?
