'i was offered the opportunity to play european countries as well as the CBA this season. i figured playing in the CBA was better for me because the season in length is the same as the nba season and the challenge it presented with more nba players as well as the chinese players who have played in the olympic. the CBA has nearly doubles the amount of games than european countries play and i wanted to get as much experience as possible in game situations. playing at a high level against experienced players has allowed me to develope my overall game.'
