I am looking for a university that has more basketball courts than mine. I have a hard time getting a court at my school and there are over three hundred courts to play on.

...........really?

A) There are basketball courts EVERYWHERE in China, try some other place other than your university if it's that big of a problem. Like a middle school or something.

B) PLAY BASKETBALL WITH THE OTHER PEOPLE THEN! Seriously what is the problem? I have found whenever I want to play basketball I just walk up to a group of people and they throw me in a game.

300 basketball courts there's no way they are all Yao Ming's, so just find some one to get a game with.

We have four at our school, but i never play on them. Give me a call if you want to borrow one... Teaching English in China isn't easy...

He's just a show-off with all his basketball courts, right? He is the guy with a low self-esteem that needs to go on somewhere and brag about his school's basketball courts. We - the experienced FTs in China- have seen it before.

I don't know gloming . At my Uni we just registered a court and all the Chinese students at McGill took over the three courts. Here they won't let me play because of my physical appearance. I am short and fat. My ball handling is good though. The other foreign teachers won't let me in a game either. I just want a place where I can practice by myself.
