Nice article. Down here in beijing (am not chinese, sorry must state that). Rockets media day earns a spot on the CCTV news. Did not see those Rockets coverage prior to Lin signing. I dont know about Yao era, but was not here in beijing those times.
I remember a British lady on a certain news site who said she's never a big sports fan but she subscribed to League Pass after being mesmerized by Lin's game highlights and hearing his story in the news. (She has an Anglo name just in case you're curious.) So obviously, British press reported on Linsanity and Lin even got fans in the UK. She was one passionate Lin supporter online.
