I'm not really familiar with the Chinese sports blogs, but this is a report from a reader of
Woelfel's column named Xiao Chen:
Yi will play in Milwaukee. He will create a national outrage in China if he does not. The Chinese media has launched an offensive targeting Yi's agent Dan Fegan as a selfish greedy man and sort of sparing Yi at this moment. But based on fan opinions on sports forums in China, they are all on Milwaukee's side and many
fans have officially announced their resignation as a Yi fan because they think Yi is being an embarrassment for the Chinese people.
Could there be a backlash from the mainland?

Wow... way to break a story. That's some good news? I hope that the blame for all this gets passed onto the agent, not Yi.
(I mean, I want Yi to be an allstar next year so we don't want Chinese fans to renounce Yi)
