    Did anyone else notice that Yao seemed to be limping, while he was walking with the flag? Possibly it was because he was having to take shorter than normal strides. :p

    Don't worry, I called the Rocket's medical staff. They say it's nothing to worry about.

    You could tell he was dying to pick up that cute kid, which he did later. Quite a moment for Yao! :cool:

    Didn't see it but it doesn't surprise me he was showing off with a lil pimp limp. A lil bit of that good ol American swag he done picked up.

    Yao still needs to work on his stamina. He was like the only person there yesterday huffing and puffing at the last interview. Surprised he didn't put both hands on his knees to do the interview.

    If he was still hurting, he wouldn't be holding the kid in his arms for so long. So I am not worried.

    He didn't smile either. Maybe he was angry about the Artest trade!

    He was also 7'6" and Asian. He must be an oxymoron!
