Went to see the Year of the Yao screening @ the ImaginAsian Theater last night. It was sponsored by my basketball league, DreamLeague (www.dreamleague.org) and the APEX (www.apex-ny.org) group. Both organizations do great work with community youth through mentoring programs. Anyways, the movie was pretty good! I was suprisingly pleased
.
Pretty much it follows Yao Ming through his first year through the NBA. Besides having to be a rookie in the NBA, he was under A LOT of pressure to be good. He had the weight of trying to represent China as well as having to face dudes like Shaq every night.
No rookie should have to go through that! Watch it. Its actually very funny. He's soooo tall.
P.S. : No Xanga until I get back from Cali folks. I'll be thinking of you all in Sunny CA!
