    This, btw, is what Jonathan Feigan has to say about it:

    Feigan would not follow up or report on anything controversial, I like his writing but he is a puppet for the Rockets organization.

    Sina is a crap site with all kinds of faked news. Any news from it should be banned in clutchfans.

    Not true. A few days ago, he asked Yao in person about the "no [adherence to the] game plan" quote, just to see if it had been an attack on Adelman. Yao said that he had, in fact, been talking about the players' failure to adhere to the game plan, as Feigan had originally guessed. Something like that really hardly even needed to be followed up, but Feigan did it because he is a good reporter, not a puppet. So far, his analysis this year has been great. I suspect your main complaint is that he more often agrees with the Rockets coaching staff than with the masses of idiotic fans.

    Here is an update:

    A couple Chinese reports, who reside here in Houston, asked Yao about the “iso-ed” rumor during the party Sunday afternoon. Yao’s first reaction was like “WTF, Who said that?” When given the answer, he cursed a few words in Chinese, then ignored / dismissed it as he usually does with fake rumors.

    Here is the link:

    Hope someone with better skill (Pryuen ) can translate those blog pieces and put this rumor to a rest once and for all. There are also some pretty hilarious comments about Yao and T-Mac’s “tender moment” during the party. I think it worth to read because it shows Yan and T-Mac are pretty tight!

    Yao Ming's denial, like Feigan's annot be trusted because he is a puppet for the Rockets organization. It's a well-known fact among real Rockets fans that Yao Ming is on the Rockets payroll.

    听听火箭队更衣室的工作人员告诉我们一条怎样的惊人消息:在上一场比赛结束后,队员们都进入更衣室,因为要接受电视台的采访,姚明和麦蒂又一前一后的走了出来,麦蒂在前,姚明低着头在后。当来到更衣室走廊的第二道门口处,麦蒂突然站住,看着姚明走过来时,面带愠色,突然用右手食指指着走过来的姚明,当着几个人的面,阴沉着脸对姚明说:“你将会被(我们)孤立!”这句话一连说了两遍,麦蒂说完转身就走。在周围人惊讶地注视下,姚明脸色顿时变得铁青,嘴里说着些什么,再看了看周围的人,几次欲言又止,低着头咬着嘴唇,显然麦蒂这一举动让姚明有些不知所措。

    My translation:

    "Listen to this startling news told to us by a worker in the Rockets' locker room: after the first half had finished, the team were all going into the locker room. In order to do television interviews, Yao Ming and McGrady came out apart, McGrady ahead, Yao Ming with his head down behind. When they got to the second doorway in the hall to the locker room, McGrady stopped in his tracks and, approaching Yao Ming with an angry look on his face, suddenly pointed with his right index finger at the approaching Yao Ming. In front of several people, he said to Yao Ming with a dark look: "You will be isolated by us!" After saying this twice, McGrady turned and left. Under the scrutiny of the bystanders, Yao Ming's face turned the color of iron. Mumbling something, he looked around at the bystanders, several times trying to speak, with his head down and lips pressed together. Clearly this act by McGrady left Yao Ming at a loss."

    For the last time. Sina is just a portal, it have no reporters of its own. It just link to reports published by others and pay those people some money.

    It is actually full of everything, from Crap to breaking news to insider information. It just put everything it can find out there. You have to choose which ones you want to believe.

    I take this to mean that we're going to pound it in to Yao for awhile.


    ...not that he's going to get frozen out.

    oh, really, which link did SINA use to report the "loss of Chinese volleyball national team in 2004's olympic final?" when the game was still going on and the "projected" winner Russian team had two more points to win? NONE. SINA just made it up!

    A link to "no name" or "nowhere" on Sina is probably just a lie made by SINA.

    Why should they be sued.. in the US people get away with it.. Tabloids say pretty much what they want. In the UK people get away with it.. British Paparazzi are brutal. Why shouldn't the Chinese media have the same kind of crappy journalistic characteristics? (is that grammatically correct... ah what does it matter! LOL)
