    There is 7 hour time differenc between Athens and East Coast, 10 hour with West, 9 hour Central. Looks like NBC thinks there is some viewing interest in seeing Yao play in the Olympics from the fans. China vs Spain is going to be broadcast live on CNBC for sure. Set your tivo or tune into CNBC/MSNBC when China is playing, you might find other games broadcast too.

    New Zealand was 4th in the 2002 world's and New Zealand's goal is a medal! Itlay just beat US. Spain is the runner up in the Euro cup, and beat Serbia twice with ease recently. Serbia and Argentina are 1st and 2nd in the 2002 world's, and beat China in the diamond ball tourny pretty convincingly.
    It's not going to be a walk in the park for China. I am really worried that Yao has to keep the facial hair.

    No. I'll be there from the 22nd (Sunday) - 27th (Friday).

    I know I will catch track & field events on Mon, Tue & Wed, and the b-ball games (USA & China). I don't know what the hell to do after that though....

    China might play US if China gets out of the 1st round, which is a long shot. I am sure you will find more than you can handle around this time in Greece. Have a good time there.

    So far, there are only two games for sure in the NBC lineup. But like I said, you never know.

    CNBC:
    Yao Ming leads China against former NBA Rookie of the Year Paul Gasol and Spain.

    Aug.19 1pm EDT
    MSNBC:
    Men’s Basketball – Argentina vs. China (LIVE)

    New Zealand dosen't stand a chance to get a medal, this is china's easiest game and probably the only one they will win.

    It's Serbia & Montenegro. Don't ask me where the CG comes from though.
