Ming might make the NBA all interview team I just red a new report on Ming. Man, he does have some sense of humor. And I also like his attitude toward money and his first contract. Here is a quick translation, I tried to remain as close as possible to its original meaning. Sorry wind&sea, I took your job this time. When asked about his new contract, ming said, "I have heard three different versions of this contract, but don't know the details. I even never called to ask about it since I trust my agents." When commented by the reporter that salary reflects a person's value, Ming said, "But I am still a rookie, and haven't played a single game in NBA. Don't talk as if I will play for 3 years only, 10 millions and that's it." When asked about the feeling of becoming a 10-millionare, Ming said, "Maybe I should go ahead buy a gun and hire a bodyguard to protect me". (For those who are wondering, civilians are not allowed to have guns in China.) Then Ming talked about some commercial opportunities that has been presented to him, and said "my own money (I guess he meant his salary) is already enough for me to spend, I know what's important to me now". A final note, Ming's mom will accompany him to Houston, for this Ming said, "In my parents' eyes, I am always a kid".
