Great job for the translation. In another interview, Francis said that Jimmy Jackson could be the team leader next season, instead of Yao or TMC.
Great translation! I think that rather than letting such a good translation of a great interview get lost in this thread...you should repost it in a new thread of its own. i too find it interesting how yang-yi's article about what happened behind closed doors in the locker room turned out to be true. maybe this yangyi guy is more credible than we've given him credit for.
