From Yao Ming's good friend Yang Yi, the reporter guy, it seems that our Big fella will be heading out for Houston on the 5th China time. http://sports.sina.com.cn/s/2003-10-02/021965346s.shtml It says, Yao' back to Beijing alone on the 2nd hurrily. I guess to organize his stuff in the NT trainning camp. Then he's going back to Shanghai on the 4th. Leaving for Houston on the 5th.
For those of you interested, the Korean head coach said Korea is top 8 in the world with Yao. A reporter in Japan said Japan is top 4 in the world with Yao. It also mentioned Yao is trying to hurry back to Houston, since there's no challenge left in Asia.
The Rockets would win the championship this year if we had Michael Jordan at his prime playing the 2.
However, I just now read Yao's own writting in the sohu bbs, he wrote that the return date was not fixed when he replied in one thread. But he said that on the Oct 1st. So that might have changed, and Yang Yi seems to have some credit judging from his past reports.
Yeah right. Korean coach and Japanese reporters. If we had the Spurs champions team last season, we would have been the champions last season. Savvy?
Okay latest news. Carrol Dawson said that Yao Ming will arrive at Houston this Sunday (Houston local time), and will be joining the whole Rockets team for the trip to Portland, Seattle etc.
Haha, and China will be in top 2 with Yao. The Koreans and Japanese are hyping thier own teams too much. The fact is that they do not have Yao, period, and they should stop dreaming.
