    Oh come on, he is doing a great job dispelling a stereotype. For those posters who only see Asians in TV they can see just like any other group they all are not educated, smart, thoughtful, etc, in fact some even seem leading candidates for the next Darwin awards.

    ALL of YOU are brainwashed by the COMMUNISTS..ha ha ha

    ~~enjoy good things in lives back to their homeland, this land is for the free~~

    NAPSTER:

    quote:".2 of that 6%? I can assure you that even in America, there is a much greater percentage, especially among asian youth, that have a genuine interest in basketball.


    Oh and don't forget all those asians...in Asia."
    ~~i AM talking about in AMerica..stupid..asians in asia DON'T care about basketball...and i know what i am talking about because i lived in asia AND the U.S. ~~

    Invisible Fan"

    quote:"You are one stupid Asian guy.

    Basketball is not for Asians? Oh...just not for the Asians living in Asia. NBA is reserved for Americans and not foreigners? Look in the ****ing mirror moron."
    ~~i'm NOT a foreigners..idiot..i'm an american citizens..before you call someone something..first..THINK~~

    TIGEREYE:

    quote:"Why does the NBA need to asian players think about it dude the NBA cut a contract with Chinese TV to broadcast some of Yao's games

    It is estimated that of all the games that have been broadcasted there, they have an average of 8.5 million households watching watching games. the U.S. has anaverage of only 2.5 million housholds watching. this was quoted in some article I saw in sportsbusinessnews.com

    Now does the NBA need asians, I think the facts tell the story!!!!"
    ~~yeah..so?..does the NBA makes money just because 8.5 million people watching it?..~~

    YM11:

    quote:"you know nothing and you talk about it since you are born here.
    sure the soccer is hot in asia and especial in china but basketball
    has more population. do talk what you know"
    ~~you got proof?..the international sports is SOCCER~~

    DN1282:

    quote:"What difference does it make? The NBA wants to uphold its claim as the best league in the world, with the best players. So, if a player is talented, it would only naturally make sense for the NBA to go after him. Whether he's white, black, asian or Latino, whatever...only his talent matters.

    That's like saying, soccer should be reserved for the brazillians only, because brazil produces the most skilled and talented soccer players.

    You are an idiot. Enough said."
    ~~yes..they can be black, white, asian or latino..but why can't it be form the UNITED STATES?~~

    SUN12:

    quote:"It seems that many people with Vietnam origin hate people from China for whatever reasons. There is a professor in Columbia University. He is of vietnam origin. He bashed YM so much when the Rox picked YM. He cursed Rox's management in front of the whole class. Now he just shuts up."
    ~~people from chinese origin hate vietnamese too...and we were suppose to be the same people from the land what is now called China..how sad...look at how hong kong peoples treated the vietnamese refugees during 1975, only taiwanese chinese are humanitarian people~~

    Of course, you dumb ass. You might as well be as stupid as the jackass that barkley kissed. Ever heard of commercials? The more people you got watching, the more money the TV stations can charge companies to show commericals, the more money the NBA makes. Why do you think it costs like $1 million for like a 30 seconds commercial during the superbowl? FOB.

    Now I know you MUST be a FOB. Only fobs would think like that. How can you live in America and talk like this. You're wack :rolleyes:

    You're vietnamese? I'm glad all the vietnamese people I know don't think like a commie like you.

    so that's the true reason why you think NBA is not for Chinese??
    how absurd! why didn't you just say it in the first place so that the thread could be closed!

    by the way, last time I checked, Vietnam is run by commu government too.

    I wonder if you're some non-Asian troll ****ing around with us...

    Just look at Amercian history. If people then thought like you and made dumbass assumptions, America would've turned back the boats your parents might've been on. You're an American? Lucky you. Your parents weren't for a LONG LONG TIME. Get that into your thick skull you elitist jackass.

    I disagree here. Race relations in America are very strained. Just look around. There's a difference between overcoming racial obstacles and ignoring them.

    Some Viets don't like China as China helped Viet congs in the Vietnam war, and we also fought a war some 20 years ago over political/territorial issues.

    None of what er..aaaccchoooo said holds water, but I don't wanna waste time on dumb and dumber.

    I know enough as a white guy hearing asian people talk about the vietnamese, Koreans, Chinese, Japanese, they view the vietnamese people as filthy, unlcean... So, not that I don't show any love for vietnam, I hear its pretty, but, 2 billion people can't be wrong, theirs just not enough arm wrestling participants on our side :)
