    Just heard it on Pardon the Interuption. They said he is doing it for an NBA commercial. Thought it would be hilarious. If it's old new then just lock.

    On a similar note, Yao Ming will be at the All-Star Weekend in Vegas which is cool for fans like me who are going just to see our Rockets!

    BIG MISTAKE!

    "They're all going to laugh at you!"


    Personally though, I think it's awesome!

    You think people were making fun of him because he was Asian?? Guess again.


    Hopping back on topic. I can already tell this is going to be like the Kia commercial I love and everyone else hates! LOL

    I actually hope its a bunch of the all-stars rather than just Yao. That would make it classic! I mean adding Tmac, Nash, Duncan, AI, etc would be much more hilarious than just one player

    On the topic of the ASG, I really hope they introduce the players like they did last year, raising them up from under a platform. That way they can do their little dance, that sh*t was hilarious. Unforunately, Yao won't be able to participate in the dance since he'll probably be introduced alongside of the coaches (like Jermaine O'Neal last year). I remember laughing like a hyena when I saw Yao do the snake/wave. Anyone have a video of it? I can't find it on youtube.

    And I don't know about you guys, but the one all-star event I'm looking foward to the most isn't the dunk contest nor the ASG itself, but the race between Charles Barkley and Dick Bavetta :D .

    Exactly, William Hung choose to cash in and that's his choice. I guess you can say he's delusional for thinking that he can actually sing well. :D

    However, it's this paranoia, angry asian men's mentally who thinks the world is out to get them is what annoys me sometimes. And yes I'm as Asian as can be, but asian guys, drop this paranoia...please, because it just makes people hate you more.

    Back to topic.... I would be neat to see Yao be the Karioke King for a day. :cool:
