    Holy smoke! The Bucks sucked so much that it almost made this game unwatchable. It's like they gave up after 2 quarters... what a team.

    I wonder why china got to host the olympics. why would anyone want to award a 3rd world country to host the olympics is beyond all rational thoughts. Even the chineses were surprised that they won, they thought they put in the bid just for show.

    200 mil has to be a myth. For the first Yao-Yi game, I can almost believe it... almost.

    But this game is on a working day, even if it is Sunday because of a schedule quirk for the upcoming Chinese New Year. Granted, a lot of people have already started their New Year vacation, but a sizable number of people are working. I'm currently at my job typing this post up, actually(damn annoying boss who won't let me go on vacation early :mad:).

    So the numbers are just a bunch of BS.

    No way it's near to the figure. It's working day in China, plus China is suffering from the storm.

    20 million at most.

    200 million for this game? No way! This figure is way exaggerated by the media. Several simple reasons:
    1. Today is a working sunday.
    2. A nationwide snow disaster is spreading throughout the country and no one really care so much about a basketball game.
    3. The second time is never as excited as the first one.

    I doubt even the first time they met in Houston, there're 200 mi watching.

    200 Million is like only 1/7th of China's population. LOL. Man, what a huge country China is. No wonder they are going to supplant the USA as the #1 economy soon.

    Opponents and teammates alike have mad respects for Yao except a throng of Yao haters here on this board, it makes you wonder isn't it?

    What the hell is your problem with Yao man? Every time I see one of your posts , you always referred to Yao as the BIG STIFF.

    They are Yao haters because there are a lot of jealous, insecure people out there. Everyone knows Yao Ming is not a Big Stiff. He's the #1 center in the league, and a lot of people can't stomache that.

    Don't mind these small minded mental midgets. Those type never accomplish much in life. That is why they are so jealous and insecure. :p
