What’s Chinese for…

NBA

…”fuck that, I am not moving to Milwaukee?”

It will be most interesting to watch, as the day unfolds, whether Yi Jianlin and his people show up in Milwaukee for the traditional day after meet and greet. Because if they don’t? It could very well confirm what they tried to telegraph by, say, NOT showing up in Milwaukee for workouts prior to the draft. That he doesn’t want to be there. And won’t be showing up. Word early today is that he won’t be showing up for the meet and greet, by the way.

Bold gamble, Milwaukee.

At the least, we got this quote of gold from Yi last night following the selection:

“”I don’t know much about the team because in China, their games . . . I didn’t see a lot of games of Milwaukee in China. And I’ve never been there so it’s kind of a new city to me. Myself, I’m not really familiar with the city.”

No. Really? Bucks games are not on a lot in China? Who knew?
