    From sina, so take it with a grain of salt. I put it as rumor so don't flame me too hard...
    After the game vs Pistons, Tmac and Yao entered the tunnel one after another. Before they enter the lockroom, Tmac turned around and pointed at Yao: "You will be iso-ed by us!" and repeated once. Yao was shocked, bite his lips but didn't fire back. Some rockets personnel witnessed this.
    Wish there are some insiders can confirm/disapprove it. It is already hard to be a Rockets fan, I can not take this bull@hit...

    Link?

    And plus, I can't see Tmac saying anything bad to Yao. What the hell does "iso-ed" mean...?

    IF true, Yao should have responded with his philosophical words of widsom he is known for.

    Something such as "The only difference between chump and champ is u".

    Interesting rumor though...

    Yes, what does that even mean?

    And is english the first language of the person who claims to have heard this?

    If true it only proves that Tmac is a ****ing loser.

    It means he will be shunned, isolated out of the game.

    I just read the article and he said to Yao "You will be isolated by us!". He said it twice before heading into the locker room. The reporter reasoned that TMac was NOT happy that Yao was ranting too much to the media.

    I don't believe in this type of crap...

    but, being at the game last night, sitting close to the floor, T-Mac looked even worse than his stat line indicates.

    I'll take it with a grain of salt. TMAC is smart enough to know that Yao is the franchise. I don't think he would say anything like that to Yao. And if he did, he just bought a one way ticket out of town. But I don't believe it.

    Hmm only time will tell. December 15th has now come and we shall see if there is anything the Rockets will do. I doubt they do anything but we shall see.

    It don't even make sense. If it's supposed to mean that McGrady and co. tried to freeze Yao out, they didn't do a good job of stopping him from posting 21/13 in that game and then 28/14 against Dallas.

    There's definitely a lost in translation here.

    no english speaking person, ESPECIALLY tmac, would ever utter the phrase
    you will be so isolated by us
    FACT

    Why would this have been said after a win against a good team?

    Well maybe it means that they will set up an Iso play for Yao just like in the old days we did for Hakeem LOL :D
