First of all, in the NBA, Ji would have received a technical foul for taunting. Definitely a no-no.

Secondly, he would never survive on NYC playgrounds, let alone the NBA. Unless, of course, he learns from his mistakes.

This is not news, at least in the USA. Maybe, in China it is news, which is one more reason that China has a long, long way to go!

In the past, Kobe has wagged his finger, but not in a taunting manner! I don’t think Tracy’s earlier wagging was taunting. Not only that, Tracy easily has more cred than Ji; you know, the pecking order kind of thing.

BTW, put Tracy on a good team and that team would win. I think Tracy is treading water now; not really motivated.

Being in a new culture presents lots of problems. I remember it took Akeem Olajuwan a number of years to become acculturated/accustomed to the USA. And he ended up in the HOF!

I do skip most of the posts about women scoring netball goals and ping pong and CBA and whatever else the fuck… but this site can be really dull these days. I check a couple times a day to see if there is any news only to hear that some guy, Ive never heard of who plays mediocre ball in Qingdao shoved another guy or had to go to the bathroom… 6 posts about Tracy McGrady that I can see at a glance… Surely there is some actual news happening. China sports are the sporting equivalent of Chinese pop songs.

If you’re not a fan of CBA, why not skip the posts? I do.

But you gotta admit this GIF was worth the gander~

If you don’t care, or don’t understand Chinese sports, then you’ll probably never really understand China. Sports my friend, are a window into the soul of a nation. Keep it up Tao.

Does anyone really give a shit about the CBA? Other than Anthony Tao, that is. Yall are posting a lot of these really boring articles about Chinese sports recently…. get with the funnies, already.

Sorry- “McGrady’s arrogance JUST oozed off of him all night, very sad”

I might be wrong but I think the flagrant foul has a deeper back story- When McGrady dunked over Ji Zhe in the 3rd I recall him wagging his finger at him in a “don’t even try to stop me next time” fashion. Ji Zhe was returning the favor.

McGrady’s arrogance was oozed off of him all night, very sad.
