NBA slam dunks at 2007 China Games
The Cleveland Cavaliers and Orlando Magic have landed in the mainland. The teams had their training sessions on Monday for the 2007 NBA China Games in Shanghai. Organizers say they're hoping for a win-win game in the world's most lucrative market.
It may have taken him eighteen hours to get here, but the man known as the "Chosen One" has landed in China.LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers were on the floor in Shanghai after a 21-hour flight. Meanwhile, the Orlando Magic will once again be anchored by Dwight Howard, the 2.08-meter big man who said hello in Chinese. With a population of 1.3 billion and 300 million people playing basketball, China is a great lure for the NBA. The Chinese side hopes for a win-win game.
Li Yuanwei, vice executive chairman, Chinese basketball association, said, "It does bring pressure to Chinese basketball, but pressure also means motivation and opportunity. We persist in such an attitude: Openness, cooperation and double-win, which is also our target."
The NBA also regards it as an opportunity to put resources together.The Cavs and the Orlando Magic face each other here on Wednesday before leaving for Macau for another game.
