if there would be all this hype for Ming if he weren't Chinese??? Let's say he were from Russia....or Italy....would everyone still be trying to give up the first pick for him?? Or is the novelty of him being from China?? The possibility of opening up that market (though, hasn't Wang already been the first -- remember how great he was supposed to be??) this is all aside from the fact that the name, Ming, would be odd for a Russian or an Italian!
