Bucks forward Yi Jianlian carried the Olympic Torch as it began its journey through China over the weekend. Many famous Chinese athletes and also actor Jackie Chan were among the runners as China gears up for the Summer Games in August. The torch run had been marred by protests during its world-wide tour over the last few months but there were no incidents in China. Yi and Houston center Yao Ming are the centerpieces of China's national basketball team, which hopes to compete for a medal this summer.
