i didn't really ever think about it the way he said it. i think it's overblown about it being a culture thing cause everyone everywhere talks about teamwork but he brought this accountability aspect that flipped it around
Yao is always inspiring, back in the days when he didn't given that much spotlight to express his thoughts people didn't know how smart and humble this guy was. I can always learn something from him.
@@adamfluke3292 yeah well thats jus him being born ina differnet country. my momma is smart as hell but sometimes she cant get her point across in english so she gotta tell me in chinese so I can tell people what she means. we all sound stupid sometimes if we speakinga language we not familar with
That's the main difference between American culture and say, Asian cultures (although that has become more "Americanized" over the years). While Americans promote the idea of self and self promotion, as well as looking out to find answers to issues and problems, Asian cultures promote the idea of "we" and modesty, and look introspectively at self to find answers. It's not WE need to change, but rather, change starts with ME. And that's reflected in our sports, politics as well as place of work.
that is not true either, china is a developing country, that is not fair to compare china's wages to american simplly. as long as the workforce market is free, the market price is not under pay.
Even retired, Yao still has that leadership mentality in mind. After China team lost in World Cup and missed the Olympics in 2019, every line he said in the interviews is basically I am responsible for the loss, don’t stress the players and coaches, even though he is the chairman who affected little on the court.
More dominant shot and away from the basket. Shaw was the most paint dominant force ever. Yao was as you mentioned slightly less dominant in paint but was stronger in every other area, even defense.
What a great man. Sports fans unfortunately love embarrassment, fights, and injuries these days. Anything that diminishes fundamentals or morale they love.
He is the definition of gentle giant. Imagine if Yao had been like Shaq and not cared if he hurt his opponents, the other players would have been flying around like skittles.
'Ass' is hardly a curse, but yeah it's surprising to hear him speak like that. I'm sure that's one of the first things he learned after joining the NBA though, if he didn't know it earlier.
Equivalent to Bruce Banner stuck in Hulk body. Things would be much different had he let Hulk take over once in the game. Not to take anything away, but perhaps his perception of doing things in a certain way(dunking on people, aggressive play, etc.)while on the court limited his potential.🤔
Dunking and all of the showboating is a disgrace to the sport of basketball. It is why a lot of people now consider basketball a game and sport a sport these days.
get handles do you even play bro? Lol dunking on someone shows them that you are dominate and that it's a sign to back down. To the person getting dunked on either its a sign to stand away or a challenge
I don't know what happened here. The dude didn't say anything but the truth. Yao is soft. He doesn't like to disrespect people. Both are very true statements.
oh crap thats deep i did not expect it going there
i didn't really ever think about it the way he said it. i think it's overblown about it being a culture thing cause everyone everywhere talks about teamwork but he brought this accountability aspect that flipped it around
imagine if he had no mercy
he would probably play Lucio then
Deezol TV or nana
WersMum if this guy had half the mamba mentality, he woulda wrecked so much more.
Yao Mean
AnimeFeverTime W
Such a nice guy.
Yao is always inspiring, back in the days when he didn't given that much spotlight to express his thoughts people didn't know how smart and humble this guy was. I can always learn something from him.
김세훈 Indeed
Please don't do this... he didn't even mention anything about the war or politics, this is a space for basketball fans and Yao fans.
Yao seems like a genuinely great guy.
“If we continue to say we, add an A and K. That’s weak.” Yao is an inspiring dude.
And then someone decided to dunk on Yao, and a monster was awakened.
Shawn Wang Kobe dunked on him 😂
Alex Guzman rip Kobe
He could be a good coach one day.
Calvin Chu he is the chairman of Chinese basketball association. Like Kirlenko for Russia or Colangelo for the US
he would do betting selling hot dogs in the stadiums!!
Smart guy! Nice guy!
Paul Murray agreed but some parts i didn’t understand what he was trying to say but other than that I agree
@@adamfluke3292 yeah well thats jus him being born ina differnet country. my momma is smart as hell but sometimes she cant get her point across in english so she gotta tell me in chinese so I can tell people what she means. we all sound stupid sometimes if we speakinga language we not familar with
wow. got me thinking
Yao is really a great guy but if he had no mercy on the court he would've demolished everyone
“I” in a team lost.
“We” in a team win.
Makes sense, Yao chanelling Confucius here.

Garden-Variety UA-cam User that's just communism compared to capitalism
That is the exact opposite of what he was saying. He wanted to get away from the "we" and for people to own up when they messed up.
They're also one of the biggest countries in the world had have a massive population... So ya that stuff happens.
that is not true. china emit way less carbon per capita than us and any other developed country in this world. us is the highest.
that is not true either, china is a developing country, that is not fair to compare china's wages to american simplly. as long as the workforce market is free, the market price is not under pay.
i respect the shit out of what he said about the "we" thing
damn deep
Real nigga wearing Air Force ones
lmfao dude you made me notice that great catch
the first thing i noticed as i was wearing AF1s, watching the video lol
Bernard Poindexter wow
drink up LOL

Such a nice and kind guy. Imagine if he played angry all the time!
I love how well-spoken Yao is
The NBA Legend
This guy doesn't live in a regular-sized house.
He lives in a hangar.
Sssaga Benches 7'6 is ridiculous.
One of the greatests nba centers....
Even though he could Spartan kick everyone like throwing a toothpick he is so nice it's actually very inspiring
He is right, when we say we.... We usually think about others or the team, someone should step up, or we all should step up and get better.
Imagine a slightly less dominate shaq that can shoot free throws ....
Yao ming
and add half a foot
More dominant shot and away from the basket. Shaw was the most paint dominant force ever. Yao was as you mentioned slightly less dominant in paint but was stronger in every other area, even defense.
@@MrAthiestapostle yeah shaqs defence was ass
What a great man. Sports fans unfortunately love embarrassment, fights, and injuries these days. Anything that diminishes fundamentals or morale they love.
Wow! I don't follow basketball or care about it. I know this guy is retired, I love him.
Wow! Wise! Love YAO!
Lol I met him XD in person because of school like he came to hong Kong and man HE TALL AS HELL
*I felt so smol infront of him*
His voice is deeper than I expected.
That last line got me
The one and only Yao Ming
Yao ming is too short for the NBA
dude what the hell you talking about YAO Ming is too big for the NBA YAO Ming is like 7"7
Legarian Steele joke
Do you not know sarcasm??
@@legariansteele3643 what a midget ROFL. I'm like 13"27
Side note, the interviewer was actually standing the whole time while Yao was sitting Lol
He is the definition of gentle giant. Imagine if Yao had been like Shaq and not cared if he hurt his opponents, the other players would have been flying around like skittles.
How did those leg chairs hold up?
made in china
Just mind your own business
Great teaching
Gentle Giant. The perspective view from this great athlete
Yao's English is pretty fluent
when he was in the nba, his eyes were not like this............
Wow very wise words... Mindset of a leader.
my hero
Even in NBA Yao made dunking often after he was driven angry by opponent
Yao Ming is an incredibly deep mind and I hope he can play a role in improving China-US relations
You see ya boy with the AF-1.
he actually is 7,6
Yao looking thicc, damn he fast forwarded the retirement lifestyle
Hold the fuck on did i just gain major advice just like that? His statement was very wise and encouraging.
Dang, Yao Ming cursed. 1:58
'Ass' is hardly a curse, but yeah it's surprising to hear him speak like that. I'm sure that's one of the first things he learned after joining the NBA though, if he didn't know it earlier.
Well, a good leader would use we for something good, and use I when something goes bad.
Yao Ming confirming Asian stereotypes about deep, wisdom filled proverbs
Chris Palumbo 😂😂😂
Equivalent to Bruce Banner stuck in Hulk body. Things would be much different had he let Hulk take over once in the game. Not to take anything away, but perhaps his perception of doing things in a certain way(dunking on people, aggressive play, etc.)while on the court limited his potential.🤔
Is it me or is Yao Ming pretty tall?
it is a camera trick he aint that big 😂😁😀
Dunking and all of the showboating is a disgrace to the sport of basketball. It is why a lot of people now consider basketball a game and sport a sport these days.
called, self-accountability......
How much leather did they have to use to make them air force
Yao Ming is a wise man
he realize that this is the nba and embarrassment is part of the game.
25mfermin you might have missed it but his AAU coach made him dunk not his NBA coach.
Ever seen shaq dunk on 5people ?that is even more disrespectful😂
He bullied Yao Ming after he gets three blocked shots 😂😂😂😂
LMAO WE, add a and k. That's WEAK. LMAO
Truong Do But true if you are the leader.
yes dunking is meant to dis
I wish I could be disrespected by Yao
I wanted to be tall like him
Yao speaks better english than Kawhi
Aha ahahahahaha
Kahwi laugh😀
😭😭😭
Throwing a ball onto someone's head is disrespectful.
I wanna chill at a party with Yao and Tim Duncan and bbq food
Yao Ming droppin Chinese proverbs.....weAK...
He is a little speak like vin diesel (i mean sound)
jocko willink would be proud!
Yao shoud have gone hard like Shaq from the very beginning. He would be scoring 30 easily.
That's dead, I try and dunk on everybody
Somehow the dunking headline is the least interesting part about this clip.
But u learned though…
Lebron should take notes
Damn thats some shit
What the heck is He talking about? Thought Graham during this part of the interview.
Spirit did you forget that his a Chinese just be glad that he can spoke English
没听懂
他一直再说''我们''是什么意思???
他说，球队输了大家都会说”我们打得不够好，我们运转有问题“，而不是”我打得不够好“，当说”我们打得不够好“的时候，就好像在说，”大家都没打好，所以我也没打好“。是领袖就应该站出来承担责任，而不是躲在”we“后面逃避责任。
i’ve never heard a Chinese man with a deep voice before
You probably havent talked to many Chinese men in general
Imagine if Yao was black......
He kinda sounds like he’s black, but with an Asian accent.
Pixelated PEKKA that’s Houston babeh
🤔
how is it disrespectful? all you do i place the ball in the goal😂😂
get handles do you even play bro? Lol dunking on someone shows them that you are dominate and that it's a sign to back down. To the person getting dunked on either its a sign to stand away or a challenge
yao was always soft. afraid to disrespek
He would shit on you clown
you look exactly like yaoming like same face same eyes. thats why you are mad? your shooting form is disgusting.
Two sentences isn't even a paragraph, not to mention a huge paragraph. Go take some English classes lol.
I don't know what happened here. The dude didn't say anything but the truth.
Yao is soft. He doesn't like to disrespect people. Both are very true statements.
Kenton Lee STFU idiot. Nobody disrespects Yao
Chow yun fat😋
A Chinese ogre is doing english wordplay...
