I joked over there that maybe she watched the Warriors game last nite -- the NBA is making a HUUUGE deal out of Chinese New Year, including special jerseys, etc.

Just another opportunity to sell more NBA merchandise.

Saw the other day that the Kings cancelled a Year of the Monkey t-shirt giveaway when it was pointed out by one of the players that there were some racist implications to giving out a shirt with a monkey on it on the first day of Black History Month.
