Go Tribe from Shanghai! All of us have been glued to the TV, watching the Tribe take care of business...even today, an 8:00 a.m. start our time, left the guys at least an hour and a half of checking out Game-4...then it's been on to the cell phones to keep tabs.
The most indelible memory of traveling around this city, will be the craziness of traffic...not just cars...but buses, bikes and scooters make this a version of dodge 'em cars at Cedar Point. Scooter riders go straight and turn right and left on RED, barely stopping...how there aren't constant collisions, I'll never know...but everyone is simply used to it. Pedestrians cross the middle of the street, almost daring to be hit...but they never are...taxis simply dodge the walkers and scooters making it a hair raising ride, and fascinating viewing from a street corner restaurant.
So, that being said...Drew Gooden and Hassan Adams went out on grabbed a couple of mini-bicycles, barely bigger than razor scooters...seeing a 6'10 power forward on a tiny little seat must have stopped traffic even in this town. I'll make sure not to tell Danny or Mike about that one...hilarious.
