    TMac showing Yao/the Rockets no love like the days when he picked the Lakers to beat Houston in the playoffs.

    This guy has no loyalty to anyone but himself.

    Not gonna lie.... Yao was crap in the ASG and Tracy's squad is stacked!

    Tracy, Lebron, Kobe, Duncan, and Nash. That's filthy. And at least Yao can come off the bench.

    I've always thought some of CFs' bitterness towards T-Mac was sometimes unfair and went a little too far ... but this video ... completely disgraceful. Not the fact that he did not pick Yao, but rather the way he handled himself about it: "yea yea but... so..." WTF was that? That's all you have to say? GTFO T-Mac.

    Damn Yao was balling back then too. Oh well, I think a lot of players didn't think Yao deserved to be in the all star game because he was just voted in by billions. I'm sure it was just resentment. I think TMac is also salty that we retired Yao's jersey and not his. That's because Yao was as loyal as they come. Yao > Tmac. Always.

    Everyone goes small ball though, Pierce took 2006 version Shaq who was still serviceable last but not least.

    Yao had real value, but is probably not the best Fantasy option.

    Fantasy bball aint the same.

    Why anyone would listen to what someone with a billion dollar body and a nickle brain thinks is beyond me.

    McGrady was good because of the incredible physical gifts God gave him, that is it.

    He always was lazy, had a loser mentality, lacked focus and effort. Let's not even get into how scared he was to go to the basket after awhile.

    Yao could run and shoot during the Rudy T years. And yes we played small ball because Steve and Cat took most of the shots.

    All I know about Yao is he came back to play with injury against the Lakers in the playoffs. All I know about Baby Mac is crying about something. Baby Mac would sit on the bench than play with pain, or sit on the bench to get a ring (SA Spurs). Too bad his actions against the Spurs maybe the best minute in Rockets history. I'm glad #1 jersey belongs to Ariza. I hope we win championships, so we can hang Ariza's.

    For an Allstar game? Sure... Yao Ming (and any of the traditional bigs, really) are not much fun at this setting. Actually, I agree with JVG, the Allstar game is just not much fun.

    Why the hate on T-Mac? We all know all those bigs in 2006 were better than Yao. Whats the big deal here? This has nothing to do with loyalty. This is about picking the best possible team you can. Jesus, some of you guys are so damn sensitive. I love Yao but I'm definitely not picking him over Timmy, KG, LeBron and Shaq
