it was a joke.... wang isnt exactly the financial well that ming is, making his likelyhood to travel coach.... nvm
wow... I always assumed they had their own jet, I meant each team... no wonder they didnt like road trips, geez, I wouldnt either, stuck in some coach seat for 5, 6 hours every couple of days...
I think the Rockets' players did enjoy coach. Otherwise how do you explain they played better on the road than at home?
im not tryin to bash the original poster's credibilility but theres no way in hell an nba player wud fly coach...not a chance...noneeeee.....
I think most NBA teams use charter jets during the season. This is economical because you only need to pay for the 7 or 8 months that you use the jet during the season and wouldn't need to worry about the logistics of parking the jet, hiring pilots and ground crew, regular maintainence, etc.
I think if you saw Yao and about 15 other huge guys, regardless of your NBA knowledge, you'd know it. Call me crazy.
Why would I lie? I didn't understand why they were on there either, but when everyone on the plane is also going "Look, there's Yao" along with about 15 other huge black guys... Honestly.
