This should not be a surprise. This is on par with the few other Asian NBA players. Jeremy Lin gets 10+ pages on the Charlotte Hornets realgm forum as well as the Lakers forum a couple years ago.
Its weird, I don't think the Asians flock to support players from mainland China as much as they do with Lin. I can't even remember Yao having that kind of rabid following.
