Speedy you are Asian?
FrancisM is one of my favorite musician, ever. If Speedy knows him, he's got to be Asian.

On the Wiz board I was making the point that this trade has an awful lot ot do with marketing potential and endorsement deals for Wall and maybe also team revenue. I'm more iffy on the team revenue, but I have heard you guys casually mention somewhere or another about the players on your team having endorsement deals in China.
This was shot down by someone with a direct ear to team personnel who called the money "a trickel", but I'm still having a hard time buying it. Especially considering Wall is with Reebok, same as Yao, and also shares an agent with Yi (Dan fegan). I think it's all about the Yuan, baby.
Anyway, my google-fu was pretty spotty in coming up with Nets player endorsement deals in the Empire, though I found a bunch of Rocket links. Could anyone help out with a link for assorted Nets players who were directly benefiting fiscally from the Chinese connection? Or maybe corroborate with something quotable?
I would much appreciate it, folks. And good luck in the great chase.

The connection was probably that I took on your role somewhat while you were gone lol. I was the one torching trolls in your place (without the (Please Use More Appropriate Word) sister comments) while you were away.

I could see how having Yi will enhance Wall's earning potential though. John Wall has the type of game that the Chinese gravitate towards...
Yi will give the Wizards exposure to China but what happens with that exposure is up to the Wizards...
*It should be noted that in the past players such as Damon Jones were able to secure shoe contracts with Chinese manufacturers thanks to the exposure they got playing next to a Chinese player (Wang Zhi-Zhi)
