Call me crazy, but doesnt the chinese government own Yao, and consequently all his earnings. If I was him I would have defected a long time ago. Just goes to show you how brainwashed the chinese really are.


If you are serious, the brainwashed one is you.

In fact, Yao and most of us are taxed heavily by US government.

Yes, you are crazy. Yao "only" gave half his rookie salary to the chinese governemnt(actually not even the chinese government. I believe those money went to his old basketball team but i could be wrong). All the endorsement money that he gets along with his 70 million extension, he gets to keep for himself.


pwned.

LOL.. other nba players gave a lot when Hurricane Katrina and Tsunami happend.. this Yao cheap dude is very stingy.. he has no heart... two million for an NBA player to give for a country that has been suffering is sad. Bosh gave 1 million right after he signed an extension.. Other players have given back a lot more when disasters happend.. Even Charlie has given to the community a much needed help with that hair loss!!

Yao is from China and he has to do a lot more... should try to invite nba players and inform all nba players to give some money.. instead of fishing.. he needs to have awareness amongst other players. This dude has no heart!!

This will be another reason why i hate Houston rockets!!!


Don't come in here and hate. This is an appreciation thread. Don't post her e if you have nothing productive to say.
