    WangMeng once made up a report from a youtube video (T-Mac training at home). It was a fake story and I think a lot of ppl here remember that.
    WangMeng got himselft a bad reputation as a reporter.

    Luther has the same lost look on and off the court.

    I was asking what proof rayman77 has with his specific accusation that Wang Meng made up this interview of Yao. Rayman77 apparently cannot back it up.

    Let's see what you've got, shall we?

    Man.....for Christ sake, WHY do you think I need to sensationalize anything ? :rolleyes: :mad:

    Ask any other posters/readers who can read and understand Chinese..... which part of the article that I made up or sensationalize? I gave my best effort in my translation for almost 3 hours on that very long article......and I don't think I deserve to be accused of this.

    First of all, Wang Meng as a reporter has no any credit. Did you know he fabricated TMAC's inerview? That was really a nice article, but it was fake. The vedio is still available on Youtube. Do some homework or go to University of Goolge please, you can find tons of trash from Wang Meng like interview of CD, interview of TMAC, interview of JVG......
    Second, the very first sentence of the report explicitly says Yao was driving ALONE(姚明一个人驾着车), is this possible? LOL. No credibility at all.
    bbs.hoopchina.com, cluch bbs of a lot of Chinese Rockets fans. Wang made him no reputation there. Wang is just a small potato....Nobody wants to hate him if he didn't make so many fake details.

    Forget them. You do an awesome job, Pryuen! By the way, is it true that Luther is going to China with Yao? I read it a few weeks ago in another thread.

    ITA. That's why this thread shouldn't get 5 stars. It should get 1.

    Well Luther Head is definitely going to Shanghai this summer (beginning of July) as one of the coaches for the Basketball Without Borders Asia (July 5 ~ 8). I reported that 1 month ago.

    http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=127291

    Ironically, (for people who bash and diss Wang Meng about his creditability), it was also from a Wang Meng article (dated March 26), the very first one to report it even before FIBA/NBA announced the news (dated April 11).

    http://www.nba.com/global/bwb_asia_2007.html

    Whether Yao Ming will be there is still a question mark, as he is not on the list of participants for the Basketball Without Borders Asia in Shanghai. Yao Ming could still be in Houston by that time on his rehabilitation after his left big toe surgery (to be taking place sometimes next week) or training with the Dream (logically to follow right after his rehabilitation from the toe surgery).

    He is getting married this summer, right?

    I remember now. Thanks! It's pretty weird that Luther is going to be a coach though. That will be an interesting sight to see.

    I thought he was getting married at the end of the year. Or was it at the end of the summer?

    Not necessarily true.......

    When he was asked about this, he gave 2 time slots: this summer or end of year.

    When Ye Li was asked about this, she gave 2 time slots: this summer or next fall.

    So it could be right after the 2008 Beijing Olympics !!! :D

    WTF !!! This thread should be only given 1 star !!! :mad:

    Even if that particular post of the exclusive interview of Yao Ming from Wang Meng is fake, you still think this thread deserves only 1 star ?? OMG, then I should stop wasting my time on my Google searching/researching, translation and posting from now on for this thread....or even from this forum. :rolleyes:

    Point them out, I dare you. Stop making false accusation and run away. Don't be a coward, Tell us which part of the translation Pryuen has sensationailized. I have seen you made the same accusation before.

    Wang Meng may not be trustable, but I can guarantee that Pryuen does not make up any stuff in his translation.

    You are pathetic, hating someone who contributes a lot to this site.

    That Yao was driving alone is a bummer. However, it has little effect on the rest of the interview, which is what this report is all about. Most of us could care less where the interview took place, the timing and content of the interview are what we are interested in.

    Here's another example. The box scores shown on many sports websites still list Yao as "Ming", which we all know is incorrect. Shall we then dismiss them outright just because of this one (persistent) mistake?

    Pryuen, ignore the posters who dissed you and your source and could not come up with any proof themselves.

    I think the majority appreciates what you're doing, it will be a long summer!
