TSkillet Posted April 13, 2004 at 03:23 PM Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 at 03:23 PM I am going to put this up here to talk about China's greatest current sporting hero, Yao Ming of the NBA's Houston Rockets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
confucius Posted April 13, 2004 at 04:49 PM Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 at 04:49 PM Let's combine these two new forums; does anybody have a photo of Yao Ming's girlfriend in Shanghai? I heard she's tall too, as she is also a basketball player. Yao Ming's parents were both basketball players, so I wonder if "basketball player" was number one on his mating selection criteria. With the one child policy still in effect, Xiao Yao is either going to be a number one draft pick in the 2030 NBA draft (by the Clippers, who will have moved to Mexico City by then) or possibly a seven foot version of Zheng Haixia (hopefully a little better looking a la Lisa Leslie).

TSkillet Posted April 14, 2004 at 12:10 AM Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 at 12:10 AM you can check the discussion groups at http://yaomingmania.com for other photos of Ye Li - although I think their basketball discussion is pretty sophmoric and way too creepily Yao Ming worship central. She's a pretty good player (was one of 25 players invited to the WNBA Pre-Draft camp - along with two other CNT players - but they turned down the invitation) - 6'4", power forward with an outside game. The book on her is that she's kind of a dirty player - an elbow swinging rebounder with a good jump shot. She tore a knee ligament a couple years ago (ACL? MCL?) and has been rehabbing for the last couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
