[NEWS FLASH] Yao got struck by Lightning!

About 10 minutes ago, on the way back from lunch we saw something unique to Texas----sunny on one side of the road and raining on the other side. Our cafeteria is about 7,8 miles from our compound, and the weather is very different in those two places: over there the sun, and in the hotel wind and storm.

When I was on the bus, I told my teammates that my Rockets GM CD has been hit twice by lightning, both when playing golf. He ranks #2 in Texas, #1 is a golf player who has been hit four times. That's why when CD asked me to play golf I was reluctant to say yes. One, because I'm not interested, two, I was afraid he'll use me as a shield to thunderbolt. At this time someone added, "Old Fan won't have to worry about that!" (Note: Old Fan=Fan Bin, the 5-11 PG of China NT)

Just as we talked we arrived at our hotel, there was a big bus beside the front door, so we had to walk through the back door. I sat close to the door (on the bus), so I was the first to get off. Just at the time, I heard a huge thunder exploding on top of my head, louder than my BMW. In a shock, I ran through the door. When I looked back, my teammates were staring at me from the bus, surprised. A few guys near the door didn't get off, maybe they were too scared.

If I get a headache in the next few days and forget my password, please ask *** (Note: female moderator of the forum, also a close friend of Yao's) to remind me. Thanks in advance.
