Yes, it's true Chinese officials are undoubtedly concerned about Yao Ming not showing up for national team games. But you also have to...
Everyone else is probably bouncin' off the walls like me, with a relative dearth of new information... so I thought I'd just share this brief...
This is another one of those persistent myths that never die. No one in China (and that includes the government, the Chinese basketball...
I remain optimistic (bordering on total confidence) that Yao Ming will be a Houston Rocket this fall. But I also recognize there are a lot of...
I think this situation is *very* similar to another situation we faced only a few weeks ago. Right before the Rockets left for Shanghai, the...
Didn't someone already go over this? There's certainly still a sizeable Buddhist population on mainland China, but it is nothing like the...
That's pretty surprising. Maybe you only met one guy who was overtly practising. But in almost any Chinese city (at least anywhere in...
Dallas (closely followed by Chicago) is the center of misinformation. I have no idea if it's intentional, but this statement just takes the...

Nah, I think much of it is based on the AP story, but there's definitely a China-tone to it: "This is a move that gets Chinese fans...
Maybe the Doc brought back pictures of Yao's 'package', so now the two boys aren't so intimidated. LOL, I just got to mr_gootan's post. Can't...
You diversify in order to maximize your reward/risk ratio. And indeed, a diversification strategy for the Rockets could lead to a great...
I wonder if this is what you guys had said if David Robinson skipped his naval obligations to get in the NBA draft 2 years earlier.
Yikes, the posting on the sina.com forum has been *deleted*. That can't be a good sign (but might be for other reasons... copyright?...
