Players to Watch at Asian Championship

[taipan]

yeah i've been thinking the same since 3 top players of team B were promoted to team A. Isnt china team B just overrated?

honestly, im more afriad of Jordan and Iran this asian qualifiers.
if the 3 were there, i wud be afraid of china team b too.

Team B is not finalized. But Team A has:

Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue, Chen Jianghua, Zhang Songtao
Mo Ke, Du Feng(injured), Zhu Fangyu, Zhou Peng, Wang Lei, Wang Shipeng,
Li Nan, Wang Zhongkong, Ding Jinhui, Liu Wei, Liu Xiayu.

17 players will play in the USA.

So whats left for team B??????

Besides, some younger players need to play the World youth Tour.
The expectation is very low in China. So you guys should be happy to face this China B team now.

I thought Vogel is a Naturalized Lebanese. Even our lebanese friends here at interbasket say that Vogel is naturalized.

Vogel is Natrualized...i meant the other 2 plyaers beshara and Paul are lebanese

Are you kidding me?????

With the Best Centre in the world -- Yao Ming.
The best international prospect -- Yi
The at least 2nd rounder -- Sun Yue
The ex-NBAer -- Wang ZhiZhi
The best PG prospect in Asia -- Chen

I really doubt it!

hey guys, besides the Philippines, Japan, and Korea whoelse has a local coach? I think Philippines, Japan, and Korea is the only who doesn't have a foreign coach in their NT.

Wat about Kazlaukas? Will he be still around to coach China's NT?

FYI
He is going to the US with the A team.
B team's coach is Chinese. Head coach of the CBA champion team.
