Hey, I forgot all about this! I hope I can hear some of it before I have to go to school...which will be in about 15 minutes. Hope he does well. Kind of hope China wins, as well. Yao has seemed kind of depressed lately, with all the losses. With a win, he should feel better. So what if its against no-name('cept CB.) NBA players!
i didn't have problems, sorry no tips. damn great pas to bad the guard can't play bal, i can't understand a word they say
i did, but in the last quater he got fouled every time he got the bal, or he gave a great pas, some where assists.
I missed the whole second Q. First Q, Ming got 11 points (not sure, maybe more), a few rebounds. Shot a few hook shots (that's unstoppable), missed a few balls on the line. Second Q, don't know. Third Q, 6 points (4 from the field, 2 from the line); 1 assist for a 3point, 2 rebounds (not sure); Fourth Q, He played 4 to 5 minutes, touched the ball three times. First one finished an assist for a 3point, second one, he passed the ball to the guard who stood under the basket, the guard passed it to the outside and finished for a 3point. Third touch, Ming handed the ball to a open player and that guy missed the shot. One to two rebounds.

When you watch a game online from a Chinese TV station, you cannot catch every play. They don't provide the stat. Many times you will miss the shot when they reply some "good plays". Good things for Ming: great hook shots, great passer, good defend. Bad things for Ming: need more touch (most of time it's not his fault); not very positive at the rebound and block today. (maybe he wants to avoid the injury before the Asian Games) He had a lot of "fighting" with that NBA player #15 at the paint.
i only saw the last half. Ming didn't play much the last quarter.He had a few great passes but his teammate misses or made a turnover. every time he got the bal he got double teamed. his opponets played pretty physical.Ming is verry fast for a man his size. and not as weak as i thought. the guard shoot to much and should pass more to Ming.I know everybody is saying it but is is unbelieveble that if ming has got a great position, the guard, dribbles and shoots with a hand in his face.Ming had a nice block that was called for goaltending, but it wasn't goaltending. And at the end of the third, he had a nice jumper between the 3points line and the freethrow line, with 3 guys in his face and he made it, to bad it was a a bit to late.
Yes. I saw he missed at least two. Once is he was back to the basket and he threw that ball to his backhead without watching the basket. It's so cool although he missed that shot.
