    I would add Yao's jersey number to that. Since Les want to retire it.

    they've given #1 out all the time, but at least Tmac isn't going to b**** about it or drop a proverb

    #11 , nobody has worn it since YAO

    Yao deserves that jersey retirement. He had heart. He made some clumsy turnovers like Lin but he always redeemed himself with consistent play and some clutch performances.

    You don't get it do you? It's not about the number being off limits. It's about the basic courtesy of talking to you about it.

    Agree, when Yao played, he definitely gave 100% on the court. I will always remember the playoff game Yao refused to go back to locker room and came back made clutch plays and won the game against the fakers.
    Too bad he failed to win a championship for Rockets.

    Were you b****ing and complaining and asking for courtesy when Rockets did this with Beverley and Luis Scola?

    Or is the courtesy to be extended to Asians only?
