Why feed the FAKE fan?

 

Rockets.com live streaming Yao Presser

Just got a facebook heads up that they will be streaming the press conference live on rockets.com at 1am cst

 

Won't that go against the lockout rules?

 

If the NBA allowed The Rockets to send Morey to rep them I'm sure they are ok with it.

 

not if he is not an official player anymore.

 

Anyone read Yao's twitter?

Kind of strange?

 

I believe it's just actual contact with the players... Rockets arnt contacting Yao.

 

I'm going to stay up.

It's going to be really sad!

 

He's also now a former NBA player.

 

I know it for the best...but its the end of an era

 

What if Yao Ming takes his talents to South Beach?

 

I hope Yao wears this shirt for the press conference:

 

Wow I'd be like wtf.........................................

 

okay I was trying to stay awake.... but I think I'll just record it on nbatv

 

damn Yao, i'm getting sleepy.

 

fwiw, people with OTA TV, its on 55-6

good stuff at the moment, even showing history on his carrer, even showed how it opened the door for Harris, Snyder, and Bonzi to have a career in the CBA

 

Only 9 years ago and now it's officially going to be over.

****ing amazing. Xfinity TV / Comcast refuses to work.

 

Here we go, Morey already talking to Chinese media.
