    and if yao said rudy coddled him too much, what was he talking about? it couldn't have been the minutes he played. he pretty much played until he started huffing and puffing up the court. should he have just played til he collapsed. maybe he should've been in better shape (not that it's his fault with the chinese NT obligations and training methods) if he wanted more minutes. he wasn't up to it and thus was coddled as expected.


    and Live, without being sarcastic, did you mistype something b/c 20 shots to get 18 points would be pretty bad. especially considering his pps stats last year. if yao needs 20 shots to score 18 we're in trouble.

    LOL

    Just add water?

    Idiot please. . . . McGrady has killer instinct. . as much as kobe
    but Kobe doesn't *HAVE* to carry his team for 48 minutes

    McGrady has to carry his team 48 minutes a night
    82 games a year. As McGrady goes . . . Orlando goes
    As shaq goes. . .. the Lakers goes
    Sometimes Kobe takes up the slack for a shaq off night
    and vice versa

    You are a serious *sslicking d*ckriding fanboy
    Slurp on Kobe's nuts somewhere else kid

    What's wrong with this thread, it's a legitimate question, what are the expectations of Yao since some people feel he should be option number #1?

    Oops, my bad! ;)

    Let's try 12-15 attempts per game. But then again, if you add the subsequent FT attempts, I could see him averaging over 20 a game.

    But I still stand by the amount of touches Yao needs.

    8-12 rpg
    3-4 blocks
