    Sister's friend is Elston Turner's daughter. Invited her to game. Sister met every player. Jealous.

    Great pictures, sounded like a great experience.

    I'm sure the players are happy to have fans that aren't pestering when they don't want to be bothered.

    By the way, who is the random other guy in the third picture that wasn't in the first two? Seemed kind of odd. :p

    I'm not surprised about Yao rejecting the autograph. I don't think Reebok would be pleased if a photo got out on the internet of Yao signing a competitor's product, and there probably some language in his contract to that effect too. Especially for a company like Reebok that has to play third fiddle to Nike and Adidas all the time...when you have a star athlete like Yao, you do everything possible to keep him exclusively in the family.

    Great stuff, thanks for sharing. Good pics too. 5 stars.

    AB doesn't seem like the goof around type when you see him on the court. He seems so serious and introverted. I guess that's just the way he plays. He's quickly becoming my favorite Rocket.

    awesome!! glad they were all really cool about it and thanks for posting. i knew AB would have a goofy side from that Deke impression they showed during the games last year. that was hilarious and spot on!

    thanks again!

    wow cool pics dude!! really awesome, you have no idea how lucky Rockets fans residing in Texas are. i live more than 20,000km away from Texas, so i doubt i'll ever come meet a Rockets player ever. so im full of envy for you. thanks for sharing the pics. Oh i think Yao's wife must have given him the black face :D

    Nice pics man, I envy you! Only basketball player I have ever seen in person outside of the court is Shaq, I thank shaq for letting me off of a ticket, i was getting pulled over by a cop when the cop spotted shaq and let me go so he could go talk to him. lol
