Fans mad for T-Mac   

麦蒂中国“巡演”热度不减 球迷疯狂票价疯涨

前美职篮巨星麦蒂在中国男篮职业联赛(CBA)的征程就像一次漫长巡演，16日晚的“辽宁站”演出依旧精彩绝伦、火爆异常，主演麦蒂用终场前1.7秒的2分球绝杀为青岛男篮带来本赛季第五场胜利。

Benxi (CNS) -- A last-second shot by former NBA All-Star Tracy McGrady nailed the win for the Qingdao Double Star Eagles on Wednesday evening, giving fans in Liaoning Province their money's worth.

And they were spending a lot.

Just ahead of the sold-out game, ticket prices soared on the black market. Reporters saw a ticket scalper outside the Benxi stadium selling tickets for 500 yuan a piece.

One fan said he spent 1,000 yuan on two tickets that were valued at only 150 yuan each. "For T-Mac, even 10,000 yuan is worth it," he said.

A girl inside the stadium held up a sign saying "Marry me, T-Mac!"

McGrady made the decisive shot with 1.7 seconds remaining, helping Qingdao extend its season-high winning streak to three games with a 99-97 victory over the Liaoning Flying Leopards (Hengye).

McGrady was back from a one-game suspension, which he received for a post on Sina Weibo calling incompetent officials "three blind mice" during a recent game against Bayi.
