    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Visiting China's largest city on a promotional tour, Iverson was asked whether his chances of accomplishing that goal would be boosted by a partnership with Shanghai's hometown hero Yao Ming of the Houston Rockets. The answer: No question.

    "I think if Yao Ming was on my team, we'd probably have a 100 per cent chance of winning an NBA championship," Iverson said.

    I was wondering when some one would post that comment. I think this might start the changing of the people that have critisism for yao.

    Well, there were rumors flying about in February of 2003-2004 about Francis being traded for AI. Makes you wonder what could have been, looking at Iverson's play last season. However, I'm pretty sure we're all happy with McGrady though, but just what if.....

    I love that quote. "We'd probably have a 100% chance."

    Hilarious.

    Hah. That's funny. [​IMG]

    Iverson is in China when this article was published, so maybe he's just being nice to the people in China, since he is in Yao's backyard. If he had said, Yao is ok, but Shaq is definitely better, he would have no success or fan-base in China anymore.

    I love bias, don't you?

    I like AI's obstinate and unruly character.
