seems like chinese officials are getting slightly ahead of themselves. are there actually any more chinese players good enough to even make it to the nba? i dont see any on the current chinese national team...
LOL! The Chinese officials are full of it. Please stop posting this becasue no one give a damn what they think.
Well, if a team wants a Chinese player, and is unable to draft him (or sign him, to be exact) because of Chinese government restrictions, that team will certainly give a damn. As will all the teams beneath them in the draft who don't get who they want. Not a crisis, but you're being hyperbolic.
Obviously, the Chinese officials are so successful with their current strategy that they would never want Yao to rock the boat.
China is going forward NOT backward. It'll be stupid for them to put any restrictions. It's all BS and muscle flexing of the old regime that doesn't have much affect in the economic rising of China.
