    Tonight at 8 Central

    HEH....I BEAT WIND AND SEA TO THE PUNCH.
    HOPEFULLY WE CNA CATCH SOME FOOTAGE ON NBATV

    Yao Bateer and Co. will be matched up against Scola, Ginobili (Both SPURS) BOOOOOO!!! and Co.

    If China slows the tempo and plays smart liek the 1st half of the USA game...they have a shot...and it would be a HUGE WIN

    :D There are some quick guys here, for sure.

    I think China might finally discovered the working formula on how to play Ming from the game against USA. It has a great chance to win tonight's game.

    It be interesting to see how Ginobili does, as well as Ming. Wasn't Argentina doing pretty good? Should be an ok test of Yao.

    Like Jeff said, let's hope China keeps losing that way the there is less risk of Yao getting hurt and or burned out. Lose China Lose!!

    Winning or losing this game won't matter,China can't advance in this tournament as the US and Germany have qualified for the next round. However losing has obviously restricted the number of games China can play in this tournament and reduces the chances of injuries.

    Yao Ming's show time again. Have a good rest and prepare to fight with Ginobili.

    (I just don't know what he was doing in this photo. Talking on phone? listening music? reading some news on internet? or just following what the photographer told him to do?;) )

    I saw some highlights of Argentina and Ginobli, that dude looked like a badass. Was it the Spurs who drafted him? If so... :mad: .

    Yes, he is reading some news on the internet . He was reading one of WindandSea's brilliant post on the Clutchcity.net message boards to find out the latest about the Rockets :eek:

    I noticed he still has that red band on. What was it again? Was it a gift from a teammate? I forgot. Must be of some importance.

    He must have a pretty good brain if he could listen to music, the phone, and use a computer. Basketball will be easy. :D

    RC, I think that red band is a good luck charm of some sort. Ron, it's cool man, brilliant minds think alike.

    I think he is shocked by how big his legs are and had to make a phone call and also do some research on the internet. It really looks like he is upset at his right leg for some reason.

    Here is the conversation as I see it between Yao and his right leg:
    Yao: "Hey right leg, you are so huge. Do me a favor and please get out of the way. I am trying to watch TV".

    Right Leg: "Yao-sa, there is not much I can do about it".

    Yao: " Oh yeah, we will see about that. "
