I know I said this before but...
Suggestion for rdelizo34: When you post these "articles" it might be best to put what they're about in the title, not just "article on Sixers and Wolves" or "article on Andrew Bynum" which doesn't invite all those people who don't bother to read threads.

i read it, its about Yao Ming and his body being under too much pressure, hes not going to play for the Chinese basketball team anymore
Allen Iverson passing on family values:

A.I.: son, what you doing there?
A.I.'s son: practicing my math for my test tommorow
A.I: practice? practice? we talkin' 'bout practice. not the test - practice. we talkin' 'bout practice. not the test, not the test - practice.

I can't say I disagree with Wojnarowski's sentiments but I'd be surprised if anything changed. It's simply a different culture and mindset, I could see Yao maybe putting his foot down but I doubt it would go over very well with Chinese officials.

Thanks Benji, I'll keep that in mind with the next post.

Benji and Jing,

Hit the reply button, too many times. You don't whine, Benji. I see that just me posting an article without at least giving my fellow members something more than just a generic title would not help in actually getting the thing read. Yes, Jing. I really did mean it, I just hit the submit button too many times. Cyanide, I wasn't being sarcastic. FYI, I'm not the kind of person to say something if I don't mean it. I already sent a message to Andrew about it so that he can go in and delete the extra posts.

Just like everyone here :crazy:

Except if they got rid of the option, you can always delete your double or triple posts afterwards.

agree with the article completely, the chinese government should stop pressing Yao!
hes getting to the age where he would be great playing in a regular season + playoffs, but not 24/7...
