This is not an NBA question as it relates to the question of the Chinese Olympics team and Yao Ming being or having his foot fracture severely broken and will require surgery. Now Yoa Ming is a hell of a player, a future HOF NBA player but the summer Olympics will be in Beijing and the world will be watching. He is in the middle of a great career but his country is calling him to do an impossible job and something that may threaten his livelihood.
Now if your Ming, would you tell China that you cant play in the Olympics and risk humilation
and scorn from your country because your not giving them your all on the biggest moment in Chinese history. I mean the Chinese government is really trying to put on a good show this Summer with the Summer games being held and they already have some controversy anyway in the political front.
If I am Ming its a problem because I am the biggest NBA player from China and want to represent my home country in raising the torch but if your body says no and you know the risks are too great to get involved?
Is saying no such a bad thing? the hell with the Olympics. If he wants to have a good career and make some continuing mark in the NBA, he should do the right thing and thats not play in the Summer Games even if his own government looks down on him for doing so.
If your body says no and he may lose your future skills, the guy should consider saying no this time around
