Things Like Yi and Yao Start World Wars.
Good grief, China's politicians can't give it a rest. (ESPN can't stop reporting it, either)
If the best basketball action in the world were located in China, then you'd see every great player travel to live and play there.
Since it is not, they travel to the United States.
It's one thing to revere one's home culture, but Yao's late arrival does not slight mother China.
As for Yi Jianlian and his wish to play in a city with more Chinese culture, uh, any city in China is the place for that.
Yao could tell him all about how many people of Chinese descent live in Houston, and just how much that really matters.
