This story on ESPN.com does NOT exaggerate the hype
ESPN - Yao vs. Yi likely to dwarf even Super Bowl ratings - NBA
There is just a buzz about this Bucks @ Rockets game tomorrow here in Hong Kong. This is going to be the most hyped regular season game that might mean nothing since Shaq vs. Yao back in the 02 - 03 season.

Off topic, dude. So you still play the 2K7 or have you bought the 2K8 yet? I haven't bought the 2K8 for the PS3 yet, since I just started the playoffs. Man, I don't know about you, but I noticed the AI in 2K7 is extremely stupid. Classic example, I am in the first round against the Spurs. Ginobili was out in both game 1 and 2 due to injury, and Brent Barry played in his place. And for the first time in like ever, I actually have troubles stopping him!!! And going into game 3 the series is tied at 1-1 (I barely beat them in game 2).
I was expecting some real competition in both game 3 & 4, especially when Ginobili is back. Guess what? I barely have to guard him at all, and in game 4 he took a grand total of 2 shots and making just one. I am like WTF? Stupid computer, put Barry in, I am bored here!!!
Oh, and for 2 "seasons" in a row, I also noticed my players tend to get tired much easier and sooner during the playoffs. Did you notice that in 2K7 as well?
