Yao Ming is in the news again after the Chinese national basketball team beat New Zealand 69 vs 62, with 39 points of China’s points scored by Yao.
China earlier lost to Spain during the first group match after which Yao said a few words in anger to his teammates, causing a little fuss in the Chinese Olympic delegation and among sports fans. The victory over New Zealand should shut the chatterers up for a while.
