    Ming had a monster game: 38 pts, 12 rebs, 8 blks, 3 asts (3 fouls, and 5 to's).

    edit: 12/15 FG, 14/17 FT, and 27 mins. China beat Algeria 96-82.

    Now I'm really excited, but I should hold back til after tomorrow's game against the U.S.. In the meantime, this should put to rest the turmoil created by Ming's performance in last night's game!

    Really!? That would have been pretty cool.

    Again, let's try to kill the China NT coach. :D

    Heres the quote, Yao was on the floor for 29 of the game’s 40 minutes. NBA’s soon-to-be tallest active player, drafted no. 1 by the Houston Rockets, led all scorers with 38 points. He also had 13 rebounds and 8 blocked shots. Had he gotten two more blocks, he would have become the first person in World Basketball Championship history to record a triple-double.

    I got it off NBA.com
