just a heads up for those wanting to see the interviews.... for various reasons RL-related...there has been a slight delay in getting the vids uploaded. They should be available by late afternoon.. both the VG and Yao segments.
He was mainly talking about his offseason program. His arms are definitely bigger. They showed him lifting weights and he talked about the Chinese national team program and how they used to just play basketball with their heads and now they know they must also get stronger. He said that they don't play basketball in China the way they do in America, but that they are learning. He also said, of his coming to the NBA, "If there is no first, there can be no second." He said that he thinks he and T-Mac can be like Kobe and Shaq. He doesn't know if they'll be that good this season, but he thinks they can do some great things together. All of this in perfect English with no translator.
clips are up....you will need Divx5 codec to view....and more than likely they will not play in your browser...right click and save as (or whatever way you use to download files on webpages)
Rockets2k, can you send a link to gchu69@hotmail.com Is there anyway I can access the link outside of an email.
Just downloaded and watched both clips. Excellent work, R2K...superb quality. JVG looks like he's warming up his sourpuss face and baggy eyes already. I enjoyed the Yao segment alot, and especially his attitude. He's chock full of confidence and outwardly exuded it in his tone of voice.
The link is not allowed here, but if you go to the following link on the 3rd or 4th page, you'll find it. It's R2K's personal stash. http://bbs.clutchcity.net/showthread.php?threadid=83772&perpage=30&pagenumber=1
You gotta love JVG's look on camera, the whole world seemed to be on his shoulder, the weary eyes, unshaven facial hair.
For the last freakin' time, the link CAN NOT be posted here. Go to the link I posted above and use common sense - you'll find it in that thread. Jeez, some of you dudes are plain lazy!
