Simple as that. I feel sorry for Yi actually. The only choice he has is to pull a Wang ZHI ZHI and buck the Chinese system but then you see what that will do to him. Wonder if Donnie had second thought on Wang after watching him light up Mav's Lite.
I think the mavs had to let wang go because he was going to damage their relationship with the chinese because he refused to go back when they wanted.
