Kobe Bryant Beats Down Yao Ming
March 20, 2007
Don’t worry, Kobe and Yao didn’t pull a Joey Porter vs. Levi Jones. The NBA announced today that Lakers jerseys emblazoned with Kobe’s name and number are the top-selling jerseys in China this season, which reportedly left Yao Ming feeling a bit sullen and shocked. We could not confirm rumors that shortly after the announcement was made Yao was seen sitting in front of a 7-11, looking dejected, slowly eating a gallon of Ben & Jerry’s Chunky Monkey with a wooden serving spoon. Adding insult to injury, Yao was also beaten out by his own teammate, Tracy McGrady.
People of China, here’s the top 10 jerseys you’re rockin’ this year, according to NBA sales figures:
1. Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers
2. Allen Iverson, Denver Nuggets
3. Tracy McGrady, Houston Rockets
4. Dwayne Wade, Miami Heat
5. Lebron James, Cleveland Cavaliers
6. Yao Ming, Houston Rockets
7. Kevin Garnett, Minnesota Timberwolves
8. Tim Duncan, San Antonio Spurs
9. Carmelo Anthony, Denver Nuggets
10. Gilbert Arenas, Washington Wizards
