    He's 31 years old and just finished a couple of very good seasons in China after basically washing out in the NBA due to injury and lack of mobility. There are 3 or 4 teams interested in his service and the dollar amount offered is close to NBA money.

    As far as I remember, he's the first player from the CBA to go play in Europe. Maybe it'll open the door for younger CBA players, too.

    He'd better keep in mind who he is. Bateer is always a bighead.

    He was our perfect power forward situation.


    He would compliment Yao's game because, Yao has a Chinese Fadeaway, and a Chinese Skyhook, and shoot's a high Chinese freethrow percentage.
