NBA MVP Derrick Rose concludes Taiwan tour

Reigning NBA Most Valuable Player Derrick Rose of the Chicago Bulls finished his two-day trip to Taiwan today.

Take a look at the following videos. The first one was Rose’s interview with Videoland TV. The English efficiency of the host was less than desired and the questions he posed were…urghh…You know.

But I like the second video in which you can see Rose played with hand puppets, one of Taiwan’s best known traditional folk arts.

Video: 2010 HBL Star – Chou Yi-hsiang

Taishan High School’s 190cm senior forward Chou Yi-hsiang was considered one of two brightest stars in Taiwan’s high school ball this year. The other one is 194cm sophomore forward Hu Lung-mao of Song-shan High School. Chou helped Tai-shan to its best finish in school history (4th place) while Hu helped Song-shan to win two straight titles.

Chou has an explosive first-step and jumping ability. He can shoot and dash. Pretty much a do-it-all player in high school basketball, Chou was seen as the second coming of Chen Hsin-an, one of Taiwan’s top players in recent years.
