Mike Gansey Is Going To China With Chris Mullin, Robert Horry, The Nets Dancers AND Fellow D-League Stars!
Yours truly is on his way to China tomorrow with legends and a few fellow D-League player. I'll be playing two charity games to help in the NBA's continued commitment to support rebuilding efforts in the earthquake stricken Sichuan Province.
For the full press release, go here, but I'll try to explain it the best that I can.
We will first be traveling to the great city of Chengdu (better known as China's party capital) and I am very much looking forward to representing the D-League - as well as participating in NBA Cares programs - to give back to the people of China. Still, the best part of the trip might be spending time with the New Jersey Nets dancers!
I'll also be playing alongside Big Shot Robert Horry and Run TMC's Chris Mullin which will be loads of fun - I really can't wait to hangout and learn from them this week.
I'm going to let you in on a little secret: Back in my middle school days, I rocked the Golden State Warriors Mullin jersey and my two buddies had Mitch Richmond and Tim Hardaway jerseys so we could form our own Run TMC. While in China, I also plan to challenge my favorite the immortal Mullin in some kind of 3-point shooting contest - even though that might not be a good idea.
Anyway, as many of you know, China is not the closest place in the world and it will be a VERY long flight over so I am sure I will have plenty of time to blog on my way over there and will be checking in with you as much as I can.
Talk to you very soon...

Have fun
That sounds like it will be a great experience, Mike. Speaking of rocking jerseys, I own a Big Shot Bob #5 with the Lakers. He’s one of my all-time favorite players, so clutch. Have a great time. I look forward to hearing all about it!

GOOD LUCK TRIGGA...
ANY LUCK FINDING THAT C-MULLIN JERSEY…YOU SHOULD GIVE URSELF A FLAT TOP BEFORE YOU HEAD OVER…
I agree
Flat top would be clutch.
I blog at Ridiculous Upside. I know you'll love it.

Thanks Kwast
No luck on the Mullin jersey. The one I had back in my middle school days in nowhere to be found. I will think of something for him to sign and I don’t think my hair can do the flat top…
HAHA...
THATS TOO BAD…HAVE A SAFE FLIGHT…POST SOME PICS…STAY OUT OF THE KAROAKE BARS
Sweet
That sounds like it is going to be a fun trip

That is so cool ... well deserved reward on a great season
Hope your next NBA jersey says Grizzlies on the front and Gansey on the back!
Safe travels …
