There are plenty of sports shops everywhere. I was there last summer (and going again in a few weeks), and if you just go to any mall (Times Square for instance), you'll find sports stores that sell an assortment of jerseys.. I remember the most popular jersey being sold at the time I was there last summer was Lebron James team USA jersey...

agree, if you are staying in the Kowloon side, you can try Mongkok area, lots of sports shops there.

it's dangerous to buy in HK
you probably going to get fake one
just go to nba.com and buy it there
use your mastercard or visacard
should be safe there
i got mine and i think they ship anywhere in the world

btw, the bradley center is $60
nba.com is like $45
but i think the quality is pretty bad
kinda a rip off

sorry to disagree, go to a legitimate shop, don't buy at those street vendor (stores which is on the street without a proper shop, they are selling fake ones and the price will be cheaper).

yi is his last name (family name), jianlian is his first name (given name), it is reverse in chinese.

I was hoping to find one less than retail here over paying $200+ on nba.com (since i dont want a replica)

So far no luck in any of the major sporting stores, adidas stores or basketball related stores. Suprisingly they dont have YAO or YI jerseys at all! Everyone here is into Lebron, Kobe, Iverson, Gilbert Arenas and Tmac -- the closest thing I saw was a Yi Nike shirt at the Nike store

i think you have to go to mainland china to see the yao / yi mania, like in shanghai and guangdong. hongkong imho is more of a soccer city, they also follow the nba, but not the cba. so you see kobe, lebron on tv, but not yi before nba. yao you see a lot in the commercials he makes.

ya, most chinese ppl are not into yao or yi
they like the "better" one better
