    Also, yes, Lin is popular in China but he’s not THAT popular. If anything, signing someone like Lebron (lol) would tickle the Chinese fan’s fancy more than signing Lin. He played this year in the CBA, and while he did well, he didn’t dominate like Beasley or Jimmer. His burst just isn’t what it was, and contrary to the media’s opinion he was a player that thrived off his athleticism.

    I don’t get the point of this article. Why do the Houston Rockets need to win back China? What the **** does it matter? Morey’s already gone, and the diehard fans in China would support the Rockets even if Tilman murdered somebody in cold blood. Even Yao (though obviously he can’t say much publicly because of his job) is still in the Rockets’ corner. So TLDR this article is dumb and though I’m happy for Jeremy Lin’s success story I don’t think we need a part 3 of him on the Rox.

    Why do we want chinese hearts anyways? They'll just tell us to shut up and cheer anyways. Turn the blind eye when we know whatever they do there is just wrong on so many levels. Now is there a player from Hong Kong that we can pick up?

    Their hearts lead to their money which is what really matters for any corporation over there.

    You'd first pick up a guy from Taiwan or Philippines than from HK.

    Dudes are not into Bball and short, more thin and short but thicc.

    2 tiers below Chinese national team, so you'd have to wait a little.

    This guy can’t even win in China for a team called the Ducks
    If he were to join the Rockets again
    We’d be the sitting ducks

    I’d rather have Tracy McGrady
    Like now over him

    Funny all that LOF hate on him. I don't even know what LOF was till that one guy paged me. I don't hate on old rockets players like some clutch fans do. But isn't ironic he holding up a trophy , and had to get out of Harden shadow to do it? Dwight as well.
