    Yao would be required to play pick-up games with Chinese officials and their kids.

    It will be good for him to come into the season with a lot of confidence.

    The Chinese officials' daughter is the second best center in the country.

    No way. They'd put him on the Three Gorges Dam project.

    Yeah, last I heard she considered taking a bathroom break...

    ...she decided against it as she didn't want to dishonor her country.

    Does anyone know how an NBA lockout would affect Yao's contract? If the NBA is not playing could the CBA reactivate Yao and have him play there or for that matter if without the NBA the best pro-basketball is in Europe could the CBA then have Yao play there?
