    So as I was driving home today, the Tony Bruno show had some rocket insider on and that guy said that yao is basically done, and retirement is basically pretty much the consequence now.

    So don't keep your hopes up people.

    Boozer is not a center. Martin would kill Shaq too if you let Shaq defend him. The height difference between Yao/Boozer is bigger than Shaq/Martin.

    Why don't you try to let Boozer guard Yao one on one?

    So? Even Shaq can't guard a guy like Martin, what makes you think Yao should be able to guard Boozer?

    Your brain is damaged.

    Yao pretty much destroyed every center in the NBA starting his 3-4th year in the league when Shaq was done with his prime. Yao use to demolish Dwight Howard every game even when DH won all nba 1st team, DPOY.

    Yao at 30 should be at his prime right now for a center. If he was healthy he would be king of the NBA but he isn't.

    Your brain is damaged more than I have thought if you think that was comparing Yao and Shaq's greatness. Find a doctor then go back to school if he can somehow make you understand just a little bit logic kid.

    Stop being a hater. Yao is the best player we've had since Dream was traded to Toronto. From to end of Dream's era to now no Rocket player has been better than Yao. The big fella pretty much carried the Rockets to mid 50s win, a first round series win against the Blazers, and a 1-1 halftime tie in game 3 with the LAL before he had the career ending surgery. That year Mcgrady missed the whole season and the playoffs.

    Without Yao the last 2 years, the Rockets are pretty much mediocre and missed the playoofs both years even though we added a very good player in K-Mart and Lowry came into his own this season. Show how much Yao contributed his final season with the Rockets. If Yao was healthy the last 2 season the Rockets would win 50-60 games each year, win 1st round series, and contend for the semis and wcf...

    Yao is injury prone but he was a great talent, a very hard work, a good citizen and someone Houston can be proud of.

    Again Yao is the best this team has had since Dream and that's for real.

    A "healthy" Yao Ming is like a deadbeat father, he's rarely ever there.

    Nay a deadbeat dad has bad intentions.

    Yao is a hard worker and a good teammate. He wants to play and excel and has the talent and work ethic to do so. He just can't help being injury prone at 7'6, 310 lbs
